Well the use of it we make is because the PS/2 keyboard controller has been known to die (sometimes as often as about once every 5 minutes in fact) - it's a standard, masked part that we have no control over - so what we do is send it 0xEE commands and see if it echoes. If it does all is well, if it doesn't we switch the 5V line to it to reset the chip. But we don't transmit anything else to it as we're happy with the scanset and typematic rates it defaults to.

FIQ

Hi, I've been trying to install the FIQ handler from the MontaVista 2.4 kernel. Currently without much success.

How can that be causing a data abort? Matt

It took us about a YEAR(!) to get the bloody keyboard working reliably so you're on the early stage of your journey. In a future design I'm going to stick in something like an 8 bit Atmel AVR to mop up IO and have the dedicated task of talking to these bloody clock master PS/2 controllers to save the aggro. (it is a shame that Linux makes you go through such hoops for fast interrupt service though and is the reason why I never use the term RTOS applied to Linux even if the kernel has "realtime" patches - I can't help thinking this would have been easier in VxWorks!) But anyway, after a couple of gentle nudges: www.ourcottage.plus.com/ams_keyb_mod.c (from kernel/drivers/char) I'm not sure what dependent .h you might need so holler when it won't build!

GPE update
by David Given 04 Apr '06

04 Apr '06

Well, I have GPE up and running now. And the verdict is... oh, dear... The good news is that GPE will *just* start in 32MB of RAM. The bad news is that trying to actually do anything results in the system chugging badly, as Linux frantically discards text pages and reloads them over USB, and ultimately crashes. I tried giving it some swap, again over USB, and it didn't crash any more --- but it's awfully sluggish... you wouldn't want to use it in real life. The most expensive app was, as you might expect, Mozilla Minimo which idled at about 6MB. Embarrassingly, the Watch app, which draws an antialiased clock face on the screen, can only update the second hand about once every two seconds. The good news is that I suspect this was extensively stress testing the kernel, especially the USB subsystem, and it's all fine! (Although the screen colours are screwed up due to 444/545 mismatch.) I should give Opie a try to see if it's any better. Would anyone be interested in the kernel.conf and filesystem patch I used to get it running? -- +- David Given --McQ-+ "If you're up against someone more intelligent | dg(a)cowlark.com | than you are, do something insane and let him think | (dg(a)tao-group.com) | himself to death." --- Pyanfar Chanur +- www.cowlark.com --+

External keyboard (mailboard) support for 2.6
by Matt Callow 04 Apr '06

04 Apr '06

I've been working on this for a while now, but I still cant get it to work reliably. I have tried installing a interrupt handler and using code based on serio/parkbd.c. This tries to read 1 bit every interrupt and doesn't work very well.I've also tried polling the entire bitstream after the first interrupt, this works better, but still gives false data. If I press a key (e.g. space), I expect to get: 0x4b // scancode for space 0xf0 // key released 0x4b // scancode for space But I hardly every get the 2nd 0x4b, and I don't always get the first 2 bytes correctly either. I think this is because I am missing some bits due to the interrupt processing latency. Cliff Lawson said in an earlier post that the bit stream is clocked at about 70kHz and apparently the 5910 can only handle about 13k ints/second on linux. Cliff said that Amstrad used a FIQ handler to read the keyboard in the 2.4 kernel source. There does not seem to he a FIQ handler for omap in the 2.6 kernel but we do have most of the amstrad code available under GPL. (it's in arch/arm/kernel/fiq-qwerty.S and arch/arm/kernel/irq.c). As far as I can tell, this works as follows: * fiq handler is installed * gpio interrupt is changed to be a fiq * fiq handler is invoked when a gpio interrupt is raised (in the E3 this may be either modem of mailboard) * If it's a modem interrupt, pass is on (more of that later) * If it's a mailboard interrupt, process the next bit in the bitstream, once a full character is recived, pass it on The fiq handler passes requests to irq context by faking a 32kHz interrupt (this means that the 32kHz timer interrupt cannot be used for it's orginal purpose). The 32kHz interrupt handler then reads some shared memory to determine which gpio interrupt(s) occured and invokes the appropriate handler. The end result is that a modem interrupt generates one fiq and one irq, whilst a mailboard interrupt generates one fiq for every bit in the keyboard data but an irq is only generated when a character has been recieved. There is also some code (in irq.c) to check if the fiq handler is stuck, and inject a gpio interrupt if it is. So, I'm begining to think that I'll need to re-implement most of this to get the mailboard to work. What do other people think? It looks like it's going to be a fair bit of work, but, I don't really see any other way of sucessfully capturing the serial keyboard data. Matt

[PATCH 1/3] Add backlight support for Amstrad Delta
by Jonathan McDowell 03 Apr '06

03 Apr '06

This patch adds support for the Amstrad Delta LCD backlight. It's the first patch in a series of 3 enabling full LCD support for the Delta and is the least intrusive, allowing control of the backlight through the existing backlight class infrastructure.

RE: [E3-hacking] keypad layout

Shades of reinventing the wheel here - I already did the Linux keyboard layouts with sensible key code returns to Linux (IMHO). I'm about to bugger off home for the weekend but if someone gives me a nudge on Monday you're welcome the to files I have already (I spent AGES trying to come up with the best layout and it'd be a shame to see this go to waste!) By the way, if you want a good belly laugh, I'd highly recommend folks watch Jonathan Ross at 10:35pm, BBC1 tonight for an interview with Alan about The Apprentice and a quite "interesting" piece of Atmel AVR ATMega16 based electronics I threw together!

Modem Patch
by Matt Callow 03 Apr '06

03 Apr '06

Hi, attached is a patch to enable the modem on the e3. The patch should be applied after Jonathans patches. It is then accessable as /dev/ttyS1. I use micrcom to talk to it. So far, I've managed to get it connected to the phone line as a speaker phone, but I can't get any sound through the handset.

GPE up and running (sort of)
by David Given 03 Apr '06

03 Apr '06

-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- Hash: SHA1 After spending *far* too long playing over the weekend, I've finally managed to get Familiar Linux up and running on the E3. The good news: it actually seems to work, as far as I've managed (Familiar really doesn't like running on the 2.6 kernel; it relies heavily on devfs, which is now deprecated, and all sorts of things require foul hacking to make run at all). The bad news: at idle it seems to eat nearly all the available memory (with under a megabyte utilised in buffers, too, so most of that is actual real code). Bootup is very, very slow, too (several minutes); but I'm not yet sure whether this is intrinsic or due to the USB 1 storage device crippling it. Once the shell has actually started up, it seems to be reasonably usable. Oh, yeah, as expected the screen doesn't play nice with the mouse pointer, which pretty much vanishes completely while moving. Things I need to try: another look to see if there are any device nodes missing, in an attempt to get the rest of the applications going (a lot of them fail to start with 'Unable to find entropy collection module' - --- missing /dev/random, perhaps?); seeing if I can backport the E3 patches to the last 2.6 kernel with devfs (dammit, why did they deprecate devfs? It's so *useful*); joining the Familiar mailing list and asking about udev support... Incidentally, I also got full Debian running. The ARM etch netinst images basically Just Work (you need to use etch because of the 2.6 kernel). The installer runs reasonably happily, despite complaining about low RAM, but is very, very slow. A number of times while validating packages I thought it had hung, but it came back to life again a few minutes later. Once installed, shell access is reasonably snappy and it idles with a reasonable amount of free memory. Aptitude in full-on graphical mode is only just usable. I'll try this again once I get an ethernet adaptor --- the most difficult bit was trying to shoehorn the CD image onto the same CF card as the installation filesystem. ...what's the current status of compressed writable filesystems on Linux? Do I have to resort to such aberrations as jffs2 over blkmtd, or is there anything better? Even with the E3's slow number-crunching abilities, I suspect that may still be faster than pushing uncompressed data of the USB link. - -- +- David Given --McQ-+ | dg(a)cowlark.com | "Those that repeat truisms, are also forced to | (dg(a)tao-group.com) | repeat them." --- Anonymous from Slashdot +- www.cowlark.com --+ -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v1.4.1 (GNU/Linux) Comment: Using GnuPG with Mozilla - http://enigmail.mozdev.org iD8DBQFEMPL0f9E0noFvlzgRAjcDAJ9bCHfdwflZL0cK08ebdIt/SZ4jIgCgmgul 04+Mx/XXPu+LB8o4tBj1LnA= =obNw -----END PGP SIGNATURE-----
