I am trying to create a Dynamic Entry for CB Sequence Generation and Recovery Table in which followed up the example from SJA1110 EVM Host tools CB_SG_IR.py. where i am facing some issue with the bit settings
Add on to that, see when we are configuring this
((GENSEQNUM & 0x1) << 28) |
((SEQRECOFFSET & 0x1F) << 29) |
((IND_REC_TIMEOUT & 0xFFFF) << 34);

IND_REC_TIMEOUT value is written after 32 bit register value which is we are exceeding the 32 bits where the values will be written into the wrong register ryt?? can you double check whether it will be written within 32bit register

One more thing when i debug, i could see the CB_SG_IR_Entry[0] is written with some values what we are expecting to write but in the case of other CB_SG_IR_Entr[1],[2],[3] there is no value written
I am thinking the root cause of the issue is due to bit change ??

As you mentioned the spi_read and spi_write is as same as L2 Lookup table which i used to configure dynamically which is working fine in L2 Lookup table.
Is there any other thing we are missing out ??

Hello @Atkinson ,

Finally, I understand your issue clearly.
It turns out the root cause is related to bit alignment across 32-bit words — something quite fundamental when working with hardware register programming.

Below is the corrected code. I hope I’ve implemented it without errors, but please let me know if anything still looks off.

// Entry[0] – bits 0–31
CB_SG_IR_Entry[0] =
((GENSEQNUM & 0x1) << 28) | // Bit 28
((SEQRECOFFSET & 0x7) << 29); // Bits 29–31

// Entry[1] – bits 32–63
CB_SG_IR_Entry[1] =
((SEQRECOFFSET >> 3) & 0x3) << 0 | // Bits 32–33
((IND_REC_TIMEOUT & 0xFFFF) << 2) | // Bits 34–49
((SEQ_REC_PORTS & 0x7FF) << 18) | // Bits 50–60
((IND_REC_PORTS & 0x7FF) << 29); // Bits 61–71

// Entry[2] – bits 64–95
CB_SG_IR_Entry[2] =
((TAG_PORTS & 0x7FF) << 0) | // Bits 72–82
((REPLACE_PORTS & 0x7FF) << 11) | // Bits 83–93
((RTAGOFFSET_0 & 0x3) << 30); // Bits 94–95 (lower 2 bits)

// Entry[3] – bits 96–127
CB_SG_IR_Entry[3] =
((RTAGOFFSET_0 >> 2) & 0xF) << 0 | // Bits 96–99 (upper 4 bits)
((RTAGOFFSET_1 & 0x3F) << 4) | // Bits 100–105
((RTAGOFFSET_2 & 0x3F) << 10) | // Bits 106–111
((RTAGOFFSET_3 & 0x3F) << 16) | // Bits 112–117
((RTAGOFFSET_4 & 0x3F) << 22) | // Bits 118–123
((RTAGOFFSET_5 & 0xF) << 28); // Bits 124–127 (lower 4 bits)

// Entry[4] – bits 128–159
CB_SG_IR_Entry[4] =
((RTAGOFFSET_5 >> 4) & 0x3) << 0 | // Bits 128–129 (upper 2 bits)
((RTAGOFFSET_6 & 0x3F) << 2) | // Bits 130–135
((RTAGOFFSET_7 & 0x3F) << | // Bits 136–141
((RTAGOFFSET_8 & 0x3F) << 14) | // Bits 142–147
((RTAGOFFSET_9 & 0x3F) << 20) | // Bits 148–153
((RTAGOFFSET_10 & 0x3F) << 26); // Bits 154–159

Hello @Atkinson ,

I adapted example_vlan_lookup_table.py to work with the CB SG IR table. Please find the Python script attached. I’ve also included two .hex files for the SJA1110-EVM, which contain the switchcore configuration for my minimal IEEE 802.1CB example. Just remove the .txt extension from the filenames.

Save all files to the folder where host tools were unzipped, e.g. sja1110evm_hosttools_v1.2\SJA1110EVM

To load the configuration onto the board, follow the DIP switch settings as described in UM575112-AH1901 SJA1110 - EVM User Manual (v1.2), section 3.3 “Quick Start using the Python Host Tools Package”, and run:

python setup_sja1110evm.py --hex1 switchcore_0_Config_CB.hex --hex2 switchcore_1_Config_CB.hex

Then, run the dynamic change example:

python __example_cb_sgir_table.py

You should see output similar to:
