can_pci-200

2007-08-14T19:18:36+00:00

The CAN/PCI-200 is a passive PCI CAN Controller made by ESD Electronic (esd electronic system design gmbh). This driver is currently only available as a patch against lincan 0.3.3. Lincan is part of the OCERA Project (Open Components for Embedded Real-time Applications). It can be built without the other OCERA components. The lincan drivers can be used under RT-Linux and plain Linux.

Unused pins optimized away Introduction Xilinx ISE (and probably the other vendor's tools too) removes unused logic and also (more annoyingly) unused pins from FPGA designs. Problem Description Unused (or even some static) pins seem to be optimized away by Xilinx' ISE FPGA design tools.

Building/Using under Linux 2.4.x Make sure you have /lib/modules/`uname -r`/build/include, otherwise create a symlink: cd /lib/modules/`uname -r`/ ln -s /usr/src/linux build and then make should suffice to build the module. We've tested it under 2.4.4 as well as 2.4.27 This should also have compiled the user-space test-program called “send_to_fpga”.

rs1driver002_changes

2006-03-02T18:03:25+00:00

* renamed the source and module files (from {mod_}pci_driver_7seg.{c,o} to {mod_}rs1_pci_driver.{c,o}) * now works with RT-Linux: * three new functions that are callable by RT-Linux based modules and other kernel modules * added a headerfile “vc_pulser_rt.h” for those three functions (Please disregard the name, it is based on an internal project)

rs1driver003_changes

2007-07-27T19:33:45+00:00

* renamed the module files (from mod_rs1_pci_driver.o/.ko to raggedstone1.o/.ko) * reworked the Makefile * only one Makefile for both Linux kernel 2.4.x and 2.6.x * now works with RTAI in addition to RT-Linux: * see changes for version 0.0.2 for more info on the realtime functions
