Development Environment

SB3 is used for CM2 firware code development. In addition to all the necessary software, SB3 console has USB based JTAG programmer attached. Sanbox 3 node with CM2 board

Firmware Programming

JTAG Programmer Hardware

We are using Olimex ARM-USB-OCD USB based JTAG debugger that is attached to the JTAG port on the CM2 board (JXX).

JTAG Programmer Software

Software used for debugging and internal flash programming is OpenOCD (standard Debian package - apt-get isntall openocd ).

The file openocd.cfg, included in the source repository, has an appropriate configuration for programming the CM2 hardware, although you can experiment with different scripts to automate erasing the flash, verifying the image, and so forth.

Cross-compiler

Software development environment is based on GNU Toolchain for ARM Processor. Downloaded tarball is installed in /usr/{bin,lib,libexec,arm-none-linux-gnueabi}. The toolcahin was compiled with the arm-none-linux-gnueabi prefix so that (for example) compiler can be invoked with:

  arm-none-linux-gnueabi-gcc program.c -o program

You can also get the latest version of gcc, binutils, and newlib, and compile these as configure --target=arm-elf. Both the Makefile and the loader know (at least in theory) how to deal with ELF format CM2 images. In this case tools are prefixed with "arm-elf", so for example an appropriate value for CC in the Makefile would be CC=/usr/local/arm-elf-gcc
