Prerequisites

Before starting, prepare a Yocto boot SD.

Installing required packages

Download and install TI CLANG Compiler Toolchain:

$ cd /tmp
$ wget https://dr-download.ti.com/software-development/ide-configuration-compiler-or-debugger/MD-ayxs93eZNN/2.1.2.LTS/ti_cgt_armllvm_2.1.2.LTS_linux-x64_installer.bin
$ chmod +x ti_cgt_armllvm_2.1.2.LTS_linux-x64_installer.bin
$ ./ti_cgt_armllvm_2.1.2.LTS_linux-x64_installer.bin and install to ~/ti/ti-cgt-armllvm_2.1.2.LTS
$ rm ti_cgt_armllvm_2.1.2.LTS_linux-x64_installer.bin

Download MCU-PLUS-SDK for the SOM:

$ mkdir ~/mcu-plus-sdk-am62x
$ cd ~/mcu-plus-sdk-am62x
$ git clone https://github.com/varigit/ti-mcu-plus-sdk -b mcu_plus_sdk_am62x_08_06_00_18_var01 ~/mcu-plus-sdk-am62x

Demos pins for M4F CPU

Default M4F pins used by the demos are:

Function SoC balls VAR-SOM-AM62 pins Symphony pins Notes
UART2 RXD/TXD R24/R25 J1.115/J1.171 J18.9 / J18.7 The UART2 is not an instance from the MCU domain so only the polling mode is supported.
To more details: Accessing main and wakeup domain peripherals from MCU domain

Don't use /dev/ttyS2 from linux while running M4F examples to avoid conflicts.

The folders am62x-sk and am62x-sk-lp are related to the examples for TI Starter Kit.

You can build and run the demos following official TI documentation:

https://software-dl.ti.com/mcu-plus-sdk/esd/AM62X/08.06.00.18/exports/docs/api_guide_am62x/MAKEFILE_BUILD_PAGE.html
https://software-dl.ti.com/mcu-plus-sdk/esd/AM62X/08.06.00.18/exports/docs/api_guide_am62x/GETTING_STARTED_BUILD.html

Building a demo using makefiles

Note: The Linux SDK provide an pre-built example (ipc_rpmsg_echo_linux) that on a target file system is soft linked by am62-mcu-m4f0_0-fw.

root@am62x-var-som:~# ls -l /lib/firmware
lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 72 May 3 2023 am62-mcu-m4f0_0-fw -> /lib/firmware/pdk-ipc/ipc_echo_baremetal_test_mcu2_0_release_strip.xer5f

We will use ipc_rpmsg_echo_linux as example to explain building procedure.

Building ipc_rpmsg_echo_linux for M4F CPU

$ cd ~/mcu-plus-sdk-am62x
$ export PROJDIR=examples/drivers/ipc/ipc_rpmsg_echo_linux/var-som-am62/m4fss0-0_freertos/ti-arm-clang/
$ make -s -C ${PROJDIR} clean
$ make -s -C ${PROJDIR}
This produces the M4F binary ${PROJDIR}/am62-mcu-m4f0_0-fw for RTOS OS

Building ipc_rpmsg_echo_linux for R5F CPU

$ cd ~/mcu-plus-sdk-am62x
$ export PROJDIR=examples/drivers/ipc/ipc_rpmsg_echo_linux/var-som-am62/r5fss0-0_freertos/ti-arm-clang/
$ make -s -C ${PROJDIR} clean
$ make -s -C ${PROJDIR}
This produces the R5F binary ${PROJDIR}/am62-wkup-r5f0_0-fw for RTOS OS

Running a demo

Booting M4F CPU from linux user space using remoteproc

Note: The remoteproc driver is hard-coded to look for specific files (am62-mcu-m4f0_0-fw) when loading the M4F core.

Before to replace it with new M4F binary a copy is recommended:

root@am62x-var-som:~# cp /lib/firmware/pdk-ipc/ipc_echo_baremetal_test_mcu2_0_release_strip.xer5f /lib/firmware/pdk-ipc/ipc_echo_baremetal_test_mcu2_0_release_strip.xer5f.bk
$ cd ~/mcu-plus-sdk-am62x
$ scp ${PROJDIR}/am62-mcu-m4f0_0-fw root@<target ip>:/lib/firmware/
Run on the target:
$ echo stop > /sys/class/remoteproc/remoteproc0/state
$ echo start > /sys/class/remoteproc/remoteproc0/state

Flashing and running on R5F CPU

Attention!: Be very careful to use R5F for user app. It is recommended to use M4F instead.
Read TI discussion for more details
Note: As the wake-up R5F is the device manager, it needs to be started by the SBL. So it can not be loaded through linux user space using remoteproc.
It needs to be updated and started via SBL so building U-Boot is needs.

Please referring to Yocto Build U-Boot from source code guide
