| 0x3f000000 - 0x40000000 is for peripheral |
The description of functional pins is as shown as follow:
Compilation Instruction
The env tool is recommended for compiling in Windows environments.
The cross-compiler gcc-arm-none-eabi-4_8-2014q1_linux is recommended in Linux environment. If you don’t have compiling tool, please uncompress the downloaded package like this:
tar vxf gcc-arm-none-eabi-4_8-2014q1_linux.tar.bz2
In Linux environment, you need to modify the settings of the compiler directory, and modify the actual directory of the compiling tool in bsp/raspi3-32/rtconfig. py, remember to add the suffix /bin here.
EXEC_PATH = r'/opt/gcc-arm-none-eabi-4_8-2014q1_gri/bin'
Enter the rt-thread/bsp/raspi3-32 directory and run the following command to compile this BSP:
scons
If everything goes well, a new 'rtthread.elf' and 'kernel7.img' file will be generated. ‘kernel7.img' is what we need to put into the root directory of the Raspberry PI 3B SD card.
Eclipse compiling environment
- Step 1: Install the eclipse plugin 'cdt'.
- Step 2: Open eclipse cdt and set workspace, and set the workspace to 'rt-thread/bsp/raspberry-pi/raspi3-32'.
- Step 3: Import the project by selecting 'General->Existing Projects into Workspace' and then 'Browse ...'. Noted that the compiling only supports scons now.
Running
Prepare the Raspbian SD card
Download the raspbian image, for example, "2018-06-27-raspbian-stretch-lite.zip". Unpack it.
Burn the SD card on Windows
On Windows, download the burning tool " etcher.io ", run it and choose the unpacked image "2018-06-27-raspbian-stretch-lite.img".
When the burning process is completed, put "kernel8.img" into the boot partition to replace the file wit the same name.
Burn the SD card on Linux
Prepare an empty SD card, plug it in the computer and then execute the command below:
"sudo dd if=2018-06-27-raspbian-stretch-lite.img of=/dev/xxx bs=32M conv=fsync"
Note that the device file "/dev/xxx" should be replaced with the real SD card.
Prepare the serial port wire
The BSP uses GPIO 14 & GPIO 15 of raspi 3 as the communication ports, as shown in the following image:
The serial port parameters: 115200 8N1, hardware and software flow control is off.
Running Result
Insert the burned SD card into Raspberry Pi, power up, the output information on the serial port should be like this:
heap: 0x0005d784 - 0x0045d784
