Sticky Bits » Blog Archive » Developing a Generic Hard Fault handler for ARM Cortex-M3/Cortex-M4. This is a very informative post on Cortex-M fault handling. It covers basic handling up to examination of the context that produced the fault.
Last week I placed an order for some electronic products, and they arrived yesterday. The main products in the shipment are: Olimex STM32-P152 prototype board, with an STM32 microcontroller and many peripherals FTDI C232HM-EDHSL-0, which is a USB-to-spaghetti dongle that connects a PC to an embedded product using many protocols (USART, SPI, I2C, JTAG, …) FTDI Chipi-X10 […]
Free Android training materials – Free Electrons blog. Free Electrons publishes another set of extremely useful materials that include instructional slides, source code and documentation. The objective of the course is to familiarize with Android from its lowest levels, using also this Devkit8000 embedded board. The (383) slides and the (24-pages-long) hands-on lab exercises are […]
In this post I prepared what I think is the simplest example on how to manage interrupts for the widespread ARM926 core. From this example one can expand the complexity of the interrupt management at will. I’m going to test the functionality with QEMU, emulating the Versatile Platform Baseboard. I based this example on my […]
Free Electrons posted the videos of the last Embedded Linux Conference 2012. Unfortunately most of the videos have really bad audio quality, so maybe this time reading the slides will be more effective. The most interesting topics for me are the following: The Kernel report Binary Blobs Attack!!! Status of embedded Linux Experiences With Device […]
This is a tutorial to:
1. Get Linux kernel 3.2 source code
3. Configure and compile for Versatile Express ARM Cortex-A9 platform
4. Prepare and create a ramdisk using initramfs schema
5. Emulate kernel boot and ramdisk execution using QEMU
The videos of the last Free and Open source Software Developers’ European Meeting 2012 have been uploaded. The most interesting videos for me are the following: ARM BoF: state of the ARM architecture porting of various Linux distros (54:40 video) Debian secrets: useful information to get started on using or developing Debian (41:24 video) Multiarch: why […]
For anyone interested, the schedule for the next Embedded Linux Conference, held in San Francisco bay on the 15-16-17 of February, is out: 2012 Embedded Linux Conference | Schedule | Linux Foundation Events.
As usual, FreeElectrons hosts the videos of the Embedded Linux Conference Europe, together with the presented material: Embedded Linux Conference Europe 2011 videos Here is a personal selection of videos that I find most interesting: Linus Torvalds, Alan Cox, Thomas Gleixner, Paul McKenney moderated by Lennart Poettering Kernel Developer Panel Video (55 minutes): full HD […]
This completely slipped under my radar: Mentor Graphics acquired CodeSourcery’s toolchain products some time ago. I found out when I got to their site and it redirected me to Mentor. In my tutorials I often make use of the Lite editions of the Codesourcery toolchains, so this is the new site for reference: Sourcery CodeBench […]
