通常的音乐播放是这样一个流程: alsa将一段上层的应用空间和底层的物理空间通过mmap映射起来,然后DMA从被映射的物理空间往I2S的fifo传送数据。 现在有个客户想将FEC网络那边收到的数据中的audio数据分离出来,暂存到一段物理内存中,然后通过DMA传输到我们芯片的I2S fifo,从而节省掉数据在上层、底层之间来回调用的时间。 这就需要我们I2S这边支持通过DMA直接从一段物理内存拿数据。 为了较为方便的实现这一功能,通过对ALSA架构的分析,我保留了我们整个ASoC代码的架构,只是不让DMA从原来的mmap的地址拿数据,而是从我自己分配的DMA内存中拿数据。 258         uint8_t *wbuf; 259         uint8_t *index1; 261         wbuf = dma_alloc_coherent(NULL, 0x10000, &wpaddr, GFP_DMA); 265         for (i=0; i<0x10000; i++) { 269                         *(wbuf + i) = wav_data[i]; 273         } 333                 iprtd->desc = chan->device->device_prep_dma_cyclic( 334                         chan, wpaddr, 335 //                      chan, dma_addr, 336                         iprtd->period_bytes * iprtd->periods, 337                         iprtd->period_bytes, 338                         substream->stream == SNDRV_PCM_STREAM_PLAYBACK     ? 339                         DMA_TO_DEVICE : DMA_FROM_DEVICE); 代码实现上,实际上是比较简单的,可以套用以前做过的dma_m2m的部分代码。 现在我们要拿一些wav里面的audio数据。 linux可以用16进制的方法读wav里面的数据: hexdump -n 65700 -C audio44k16S.wav > wav_data_44100_s16_stereo.h将audio44k16S.wav 里面的audio数据用16进制的形式保存到wav_data_44100_s16_stereo.h这个文件里。 然后我们要编辑这个头文件里的audio数据,原数据是这种格式的: 00000000  52 49 46 46 12 63 0c 00  57 41 56 45 66 6d 74 20  |RIFF.c..WAVEfmt | 00000010  12 00 00 00 01 00 02 00  44 ac 00 00 10 b1 02 00  |........D.......| 00000020  04 00 10 00 00 00 66 61  63 74 04 00 00 00 b5 18  |......fact......| 00000030  03 00 64 61 74 61 d4 62  0c 00 58 01 f0 00 98 01  |..data.b..X.....| 00000040  56 01 3d 01 1e 01 d0 00  ae 00 81 00 35 00 40 00  |V.=.........5.@.| 00000050  dd ff f7 ff 90 ff 9f ff  1d ff 54 ff bb fe 18 ff  |..........T.....| 00000060  61 fe 1e ff e7 fd 5e ff  e4 fd 23 00 39 fe ee 00  |a.....^...#.9...| 我们要把它转换成符合我们要求的这种形式: ,0x63 ,0xf0 ,0x0f ,0xf0 ,0x7f ,0xf1 ,0x21 ,0xf1  ,0x89 ,0xf3 ,0xef ,0xf2 ,0x9d ,0xf5 ,0x8c ,0xf4 ,0x5f ,0xf7 ,0xd3 ,0xf5 ,0x8c ,0xf8 ,0x08 ,0xf7  ,0x4c ,0xf9 ,0x01 ,0xf8 ,0x74 ,0xf9 ,0x2e ,0xf8 ,0x1c ,0xf9 ,0x15 ,0xf8 ,0x09 ,0xf9 ,0x82 ,0xf7  ,0x45 ,0xf9 ,0xd1 ,0xf6 ,0x0b ,0xf9 ,0x1e ,0xf6 ,0xce ,0xf8 ,0xbe ,0xf5 ,0xd7 ,0xf8 ,0x9a ,0xf5  ,0xa8 ,0xf9 ,0xc7 ,0xf5 ,0xe0 ,0xfa ,0x3e ,0xf6 ,0x25 ,0xfc ,0x44 ,0xf7 ,0x44 ,0xfd ,0xa2 ,0xf8  ,0x9a ,0xfe ,0xea ,0xf9 ,0x25 ,0x00 ,0x94 ,0xfb ,0x16 ,0x02 ,0xec ,0xfc ,0xcb ,0x03 ,0xfe ,0xfd  ,0xef ,0x04 ,0xa5 ,0xfe ,0x45 ,0x05 ,0x0b ,0xff ,0x3b ,0x05 ,0x24 ,0xff ,0x34 ,0x05 ,0x94 ,0xff  ,0x06 ,0x05 ,0x13 ,0x00 ,0x6c ,0x04 ,0x82 ,0x00 这里有一个比较好的方法, 可以通过VIM 垂直编辑的方法较为轻松的实现。 vim垂直编辑: ctrl+v 然后上下左右移动选中,D删除选中的。 ctrl+v 选中, shift+i 可以在选中的地方加入想插入的字符。 将编辑过的数据放到uint8_t wav_data[],赋值给wbuf,wbuf对应的物理地址wpaddr中的数据,就是上面wav中的audio数据。 wbuf = dma_alloc_coherent(NULL, 0x10000, &wpaddr, GFP_DMA);中的0x10000=1024*64是我们分配的dma内纯的大小,我们sdma是根据以下大小传输数据的: iprtd->period_bytes = 21844, iprtd->periods = 3 //21844*3=65532= 0xfffc 这样实际上DMA是不停的刷我们分配的内存里的数据,因为我们没有更新DMA内存里的数据,所以听到的是不断重复播放的声音片段。 刚开始时,我听这个片段,发现片段之间有较为明显的pop音,这是由于我截取的是一首音乐开始的部分,包含了wav包头数据,这不是音乐数据,将这个去除就可以了。

This hands on is based on the evkmimxrt1170_pxp_lab_cm7.zip which is from https://community.nxp.com/t5/i-MX-RT1170-CAS-Training/PXP-Multiple-Files/ta-p/1178709 this hands on give an example to understand pxp basic concept like letterbox background color, rotation, ps buffer coordination definition, output buffer coordination definition more clear   No Roation This test is based on no rotation, so define as below #define LAB1_BIT_BLIT_NO_ROTATION This demo output is that the rabbit picture shows on the upper left corner of lcd, and the offset width and height is 100   #ifdef LAB1_BIT_BLIT_NO_ROTATION     PXP_ps_bitblit(                    // input                    (void*)bmp_rabbit,                    PIXEL_BYTES,                    BMP_RABBIT_WIDTH,                    BMP_RABBIT_HEIGHT,                      // output                    s_BufferLcd[curLcdBufferIdx],                    DEMO_PANEL_WIDTH,                    DEMO_PANEL_HEIGHT,                    100,  // output offset x                    100,  // output offset y                    kPXP_No_Rotate); #endif       in this lab sample code, the background is set to black, PXP_SetProcessSurfaceBackGroundColor(APP_PXP, 0U);   The output is joanxie_0-1667802290435.png     If we want to set the background to lighter blue, this is what I want to get joanxie_1-1667802290479.png     then I modify the code to PXP_SetProcessSurfaceBackGroundColor(APP_PXP, 0xFFF0U);   But we get the same output like, without any difference   joanxie_2-1667802290515.png       Check the code, find that the original code   void PXP_ps_sub_region_bitblit(…) { …..     outputBufferConfig.width = sub_region_width;     outputBufferConfig.height = sub_region_height;   …… }   This means that the output buffer width and height are the same as the picture width and height, so whatever background color you set, you couldn’t find anything difference, then change the output buffer width and height is the same as lcd width and height     void PXP_ps_sub_region_bitblit(…) { …..       outputBufferConfig.width = output_width;       outputBufferConfig.height= output_height;   …… }   Then the output change to joanxie_3-1667802290566.png     We can find the color on the top of display is still black and this isn’t what I need, still tracing the code   void PXP_ps_sub_region_bitblit(…) { …..  // Output buffer  outputBufferConfig.buffer0Addr   =  (uint32_t)output_buffer + output_offset_y * output_width * pic_bytes_per_pixel + output_offset_x * pic_bytes_per_pixel …… }   output_buffer is defined as lcd buffer start address, here the output buffer start address isn’t defined as lcd buffer start address(output_buffer), this is offset of lcd buffer start address, so change it like   void PXP_ps_sub_region_bitblit(…) { …..  // Output buffer  outputBufferConfig.buffer0Addr = (uint32_t)output_buffer …… }   Then the output is like   joanxie_4-1667802290623.png     The output picture move to the upper left corner without offset, but this demo defines the offset is 100   void PXP_ps_sub_region_bitblit(…) { …..  // PS buffer PXP_SetProcessSurfacePosition(APP_PXP,0,0,BMP_RABBIT_WIDTH - 1U, BMP_RABBIT_HEIGHT - 1U); ….. }   In the original code, the PS buffer offset is 0, because the ps buffer start address is the same as the output buffer start address, and output buffer start address is offset + lcd output buffer start address, so set the PS output offset is 0, but I change the output buffer start address is the same as lcd buffer start address, so change the code   void PXP_ps_sub_region_bitblit(…) { …..             uint32_t psUlcX         = output_offset_x;             uint32_t psUlcY         = output_offset_y;             uint32_t psLrcX, psLrcY;             psLrcX = psUlcX   +  sub_region_width  - 1U;             psLrcY = psUlcY + sub_region_height- 1U;         // PS buffer         PXP_SetProcessSurfacePosition(APP_PXP,psUlcX,psUlcY,psLrcX,psLrcY); ….. }   The output is joanxie_5-1667802290673.png   \   Now this is what we need     Roation Set Macro to #define LAB2_BIT_90_DEGREE_ROTATION   The output is joanxie_6-1667802290728.png     When rotation is 90 degree and width is wider than the output height, the display part will be cut, so change the code from Before void PXP_ps_sub_region_bitblit(…) { …..       outputBufferConfig.width = output_width;       outputBufferConfig.height= output_height; ….. }   To   void PXP_ps_sub_region_bitblit(…) { …..  if  (rotate == kPXP_Rotate90)  {     outputBufferConfig.width          = output_height;        /*Joan*/     outputBufferConfig.height         = output_width;         /*Joan*/  } else {         outputBufferConfig.width          = output_width;         /*Joan*/         outputBufferConfig.height         = output_height;        /*Joan*/ }….. }   Because this demo only shows no rotation and 90 degree rotation, if customer needs 270 degree, 180 degree, can add by themselves

This document shows the steps for the creation of Archlinux and kernel 4.18.5 on the UDOO board. Required material: UDOO board, Ubuntu 16.04 and SD card. Firts we need u-boot (universal bootloader), for that reason we need update the host. $ sudo apt-get update Then we need the file *.img and SPL for the file system $ wget http://os.archlinuxarm.org/os/imx6/boot/udoo/SPL $ wget http://os.archlinuxarm.org/os/imx6/boot/udoo/u-boot.img Kernel 4.18.5 and file system: $ sudo mkdir archlinux $ wget http://os.archlinuxarm.org/os/ArchLinuxARM-armv7-latest.tar.gz $ sudo tar -xzvf  ArchLinuxARM-armv7-latest.tar.gz $ sudo rm -rf *.tar.gz You must have the following files Now  We are going to burn the memory, we need a 16Gb of space: We need to make sure it is empty Then partitions: $ sudo fdisk /dev/sdc O, P, N, P, 1 space, 8192 default, W At the end the sdc is partition, then create the filesystem partition $ sudo mkfs.ext4 /dev/sdc1 The working directory $ sudo mkdir mnt mount the partition 1 $ sudo mount /devsdc1 mtn/ Now we where the kernel and filesystem are and copy all the file in mnt: $ sudo cp -vr * ~/mnt/ Once it finish we execute $ sync then unmount the partition of sdc1: $ sudo umount mnt/ Now is moment to load the SPL and u-boot: and $ sync we retire the sd and turn on the board. Now you are on ArchLinux. user: alarm                  root: Root Pass: alarm                 pass: root Now the firts thing we must do it is upgrade the keys: $ pacman -key --init $ pacman -key --populate archlinuxarm $ pacman -Syyuu We can add another user: $ useradd - m -g user  -s /bin/bash user_name $ passwd user_name $ paman -S sudo $ visudo Root ALL= (ALL) ALL user_name ALL=(ALL) ALL $ exit For the graphic we are going to install the xorg: $ sudo pacman -S xorg-server $ sudo pacman -S xorg-apps Now we can execute startx and observe the windows of xorg $ startx To have a windows gestor: $ sudo pacman -S sddm $ sudo pacman -S plasma kde-applications $ sudo systemctl enable sddm Reboot and you are ArchLinux graphics windows

Question: To connect an FPGA to the i.MX6Q over LVDS.,to connect the 2 LVDS channels in split mode. The datasheet indicates the driver output max skew due to different propagation time of rising and falling edge. For the sake of the design of their FPGA interface, it would be also interesting to get the skew between the 2 LVDSn_CLK (of the 2 channels) as well as the intrachannel- skew. Answer: Backend database are checked. We can provide the result in the view of design. Since we do not check inter-channel skew in production, the following may not be guaranteed.  At the core boundary, we found that, timing skews between every data and clock are within 30ps. Path from core boundary to PAD are matched by analog layout, should produce some skew well below 30ps also. As the result, I think, all LVDS signal can be considered as one single group, and skew in datasheet can apply to any signal.

The customer would like to test BT.656 using Test mode. Is it supported? 38.4.3.3 Test mode in RM shows only one CSIx_SENS_CONG setting. Does it mean Test mode support only one as follows? Does Test mode support other settings? CSIx_EXT_VSYNC = 0x1 CSIx_DATA_WIDTH = 0x1 CSIx_SENS_DATA_FORMAT = 0x0 CSIx_PACK_TIGHT = 0x0 CSIx_SENS_PRTCL = 0x1 CSIx_SENS_PIX_CLK_POL = 0x1 CSIx_DATA_POL = 0x0 CSIx_HSYNC_POL = 0x0 CSIx_VSYNC_POL = 0x0 For example, customer want to know if Test mode support  CSIx_SENS_PRTCL=0x2or 0x3 instead of 0x1? customer want to know if Test mode support CSIx_SENS_DATA_FORMAT=0x1or 0x2 instead of 0x0? Answer: CSI CM TEST MODE is working as below: 1,only ungated mode. 2,data width should be configured to 8 3,data format should be configured to rgb888 It cannot be other format such as bt656. It uses CSI1_TST_CTRL register to configure {R,G,B} 24 bit value and taking it as RGB888/YUV444 format for further process.  The generated image size is due to the configured width & height in the registers.
