Content originally posted in LPCWare by maszup on Sat Apr 13 15:07:18 MST 2013I'm begginer using LPC4357 with lpcxpresso and dual core. i have made both axf files and upladed them to both cores flash.
I'm trying to synchronize both cores in my software.
First i decided to try using SDRAM. M4 is reading first 4bytes of SDRAM and M0 is writing to that bytes but M4 goes immediately to Hard Fault. I don't know if it is possible to read & write SDRAM with two cores in the same time?
//M4
uint32_t *temp = (uint32_t*)SDRAM_BASE;
while(1) {
sprintf(buff, "value = %d\r\n", temp[0]);
console_sendString(buff);
TIM_Waitms(1000);
}
//M0
uint32_t *temp = (uint32_t*)SDRAM_BASE;
uint32_t idx =0;
while(1) {
temp[0] = idx++%100000;
}
but on cosole i get some rubbish like "<0><0><0><0><0><0><0><0><0><0><0><0><0><0><0><0>" and console stops, probably M4 goes to hard fault . WHat is going on here?
Then i thought of using IPC but i do not have examples under LPCxpresso only under Keil. The example of IPC is nice but it is using M0 image read from CM0_image.c file and M4 is uploading this image to M0. I do not know how to generate such a file in LPCxpresso. The examples is here:
