HotFix: MBD Toolbox rev2.0.0 for MPC5744P (Panther)

[Daniel_Popa]

HotFix_1: Missing lsp.h file 

Problem: Model compilation terminates with the following error:

SWLIBS_Defines.h:132:17: fatal error: lsp.h: No such file or directory
#include <lsp.h>

Root Cause: S32DS for PA version 1.1 Build id: 170203 does not contain the file in the compiler toolchain

Workaround: Save the file attached lsp.h in 

{S32DS for PA installation folder}S32_Power_v1.1\S32DS\e200_ewl2\EWL_C\include\pa\ folder

Original Attachment has been moved to: lsp.h.zip

HotFix_5: Correct code generation file for missing/wrong eTimer_0 priorities.

NXP Tracking number: AST-780

Problem: The line for channel 5 is missing in the generated "intc_init.c" file. This also causes that the ISR priority of eTimer_0 channel 4 gets wrongly set.

Root Cause: mbdtargetmainlibpnt.tlc is missing one line of code for the eTimer_0 channel 5 priority.

Workaround: Update the file attached in the following folder (make a back-up copy of the original file before you begin):

Copy & replace mbdtargetmainlibpnt.tlc file into {Toolbox install dir}\mbdtbx_MPC574xP\mbdtbx_pnt\mbdtbx_pnt\

HotFix_4: Add support for exporting generated code as project for S32 Design Studio for Power v1.2 .

NXP Tracking number: AST-300

Request: MDBT_MPC57xxP should enable S32DS project creation from the Simulink generated code 

Update Patch:  Update the files attached in the following folders (make a back-up copy of the original files before you begin):

#1: Copy & replace mbd_pnt_make_rtw.m file into {Toolbox install dir}\mbdtbx_MPC574xP\mbdtbx_pnt\mbdtbx_pnt\ folder

#2: Copy & replace mbd_pnt.tcl file into {Toolbox install dir}\mbdtbx_MPC574xP\mbdtbx_pnt\mbdtbx_pnt\ folder

#3: Copy mbd_pnt_ds.p file into {Toolbox install dir}\mbdtbx_MPC574xP\mbdtbx_pnt\mbdtbx_pnt\mscripts\utils\ folder

Open Matlab/Simulink and within the MBD_MPC574xP_Config block you should now see "Generate S32 Design Studio ProjectInfo.xml file" option:

Build the Simulink model to obtain the ProjectInfo.xml file needed to import the automatic generated code into S32 Design Studio for Power v1.2.

HotFix_3: Add support for the latest e200 compiler that is released with S32 Design Studio for Power v1.2 .

NXP Tracking number: AST-603

Problem: MDBT_MPC57xxP did not work with the latest e200 compiler

Root Cause: Linker files were updated in the latest S32 Design Studio's release.

Workaround:  Update the files attached in the following folder :

{Toolbox install dir}\mbdtbx_pnt\src\s32ds_specific_files\ folder MPC5744P_FLASH.ld file

{Toolbox install dir}\mbdtbx_pnt\src\s32ds_specific_files\ folder MPC5744P_RAM.ld file

{Toolbox install dir}\mbdtbx_pnt\src\s32ds_specific_files\ folder MPC5744P_RAM_BAM.ld file

{Toolbox install dir}\mbdtbx_pnt\src\s32ds_specific_files\ folder MPC5743P_FLASH.ld file

{Toolbox install dir}\mbdtbx_pnt\src\s32ds_specific_files\ folder MPC5743P_RAM.ld file

{Toolbox install dir}\mbdtbx_pnt\src\s32ds_specific_files\ folder MPC5743P_RAM_BAM.ld file

{Toolbox install dir}\mbdtbx_pnt\src\s32ds_specific_files\ folder MPC5742P_FLASH.ld file

{Toolbox install dir}\mbdtbx_pnt\src\s32ds_specific_files\ folder MPC5742P_RAM.ld file

{Toolbox install dir}\mbdtbx_pnt\src\s32ds_specific_files\ folder MPC5742P_RAM_BAM.ld file

{Toolbox install dir}\mbdtbx_pnt\src\s32ds_specific_files\ folder initialize_gpr.s file

The linker files were updated as described in "GNU Tools for e200 processors" release notes - "3.1 Update linker script" to migrate to version 1.2.

Hi constantinrazvan.chivu, 

Is this patch necessary for the latest version of S32, v2017R1?

Thanks!

[constantinrazva]

Hello jjacp‌,

Yes, you should install this patch also for version 2017R1.

Kind regards,

Razvan.

Without having two separate MBDT installs is it possible to use both v1.1 and v1.2 on the same machine?

Also the NXP Tracking Number appears to be on an internal NXP server. The DNS name does not resolve.

Hi jfrey‌,

My recommendation is to have both MBDT install versions on your PC and to switch between them from Matlab Path (Add/Remove). We have not tested them together within a single Matlab instance and since some of the callback functions are the same - you might end up with various issues if both revisions are active in the same Matlab.

Regarding the tracking numbers - you are correct, they are not visible to the external customers (...yet). Still that is a backup for us - to be used for the next releases of MPC5744 to make sure we have not missed any patch.

Best regards,
Daniel

I hear GitHub is an excellent place to store source code and do issues tracking.

HotFix_2: Fix license errors for DISK_SERIAL_NUM with less than 8 characters

NXP Tracking number: AST-619

Problem: If your HDD has a serial number with less than 8 characters, the license checking and validation will fail even if the license is correctly generated

Root Cause: Coding logic error

Workaround:  Update the file attached in the following folder 

{Toolbox install dir}\mbdtbx_pnt\mbdtbx_pnt\mscripts\matlab_ui\ folder mbd_pnt_hostid.p file

Customer Report: Undefined function or variable 'lic_err'.
