Introduction

For cross developing of applications we provide virtual machines with preinstalled toolchains. Choose the virtual machine which fits to your DHCOM target (Debian 8 on target -> Debian 8 virtual machine). Debian 8 does include support for architecture armhf and armel (Debian 6 only armel). By default Debian 8 is configured for armhf. The sections Code Examples for Userspace-Applications to Access SPI, I2C, GPIOs, and more and Booting via NFS apply for Debian 6 and Debian 8.

Debian 9 "Stretch" VM image (for VMware and VirtualBox)

Get the virtual machine

Remark: For security reasons, you must set your own password when starting the virtual machine for the first time:
  1. Enter default user devel password (devel)
  2. Enter default user devel password again (devel)
  3. Enter your own user devel password
  4. Enter your own user devel password again

Qt5 Development

Qt5.5.1 prebuilt and preinstalled

We provide the prebuilt Qt5.5.1 libraries including WebEngine (only QtQuick) and WebKit in /work/qt5/sysroot/. This directory contains a Debian 8 based rootfilesystem which is prepared for DHCOM i.MX6, the matching sysroot (*-dev packages), and the Qt5.5.1 libraries installed.

Qt5.7.1

We support the latest Qt5.7.1 on our DHCOM i.MX6 and DHCOM am335x. Please download and install the qmake-sysroot-mx6-crossarmhf_5.7.1-1.0 or qmake-sysroot-am33-crossarmhf_5.7.1-1.0 package to the DebianVM:

  1. open a terminal
  2. # for i.MX6: wget https://dl.dropboxusercontent.com/u/19433555/DHCOM/imx6/qmake-sysroot-mx6-crossarmhf_5.7.1-1.0_amd64.deb
  3. # for AM335x: wget https://dl.dropboxusercontent.com/u/19433555/DHCOM/am335x/qmake-sysroot-am33-crossarmhf_5.7.1-1.0_amd64.deb
  4. install the package
  5. # sudo dpkg -i qmake-sysroot-mx6-crossarmhf_5.7.1-1.0_amd64.deb
  6. now the sysroot and qmake is ready to use
  7. path to qmake is /work/qt5_mx6_armhf/sysroot/usr/local/qt5.7.1/bin/qmake

Build a Qt5 Application via console

  1. open a terminal
  2. navigate to your Qt5 sources
  3. # /work/qt5/sysroot/usr/local/qt5.5.1/bin/qmake your_own_app.pro
  4. # make

Qt Creator

  1. Start Qt Creator IDE
  2. Open demo project TwoLED: /work/qt5_Demos/TwoLED
  3. There you can find the configurations for your own project.

Use Virtualbox instead of VMware Player/Workstation

VMware Maschine mit VirtualBox starten (German)

Booting via TFTP/NFS

Prepare the virtual machine

  1. Setup nfs-kernel-server
    • Install thf nfs server: $ sudo apt-get install nfs-kernel-server
    • Create a nfsservice directory: $ mkdir /work/nfsroot
    • Place the root file system in the folder $ cd /work/nfsroot; sudo tar xf jessie....tar.gz
    • Remove network config from rootfs $ rm /work/nfsroot/etc/systemd/network/wired-dhcp.network
    • Check whether the line below is part of the /etc/exports file
    • /work/nfsroot X.X.X.0/255.255.255.0(rw,no_root_squash,no_subtree_check,insecure)
      • The X must be substituted by our network settings
    • Restart the nfs-server with 4 /etc/init.d/nfs-kernel-server restart
  2. Setup tftp-hpa server
    • Install a tftp server : $ sudo apt-get install tftpd-hpa
    • Create a tftp service directory: $ mkdir /work/tftp
    • Edit config: $ sudo vi /etc/default/tftpd-hpa
      • Take care that TFTP_DIRECTORY points to your tftp service directory, for example '/work/tftp'
    • Copy Kernel and DeviceTree into the tftp service directory
    • Restart the tftp-server with $ /etc/init.d/tftp-hpa restart

Setup the DHCOM Module for TFTP/NFS Boot

This example works with static IP addresses and is tested with DHCOM i.MX6 U-Boot 2015.10 and Kernle 4.4.38. It is possible to work with DHCP, too. For further information see https://www.kernel.org/doc/Documentation/filesystems/nfs/nfsroot.txt

  • Enter U-Boot console by pressing DEL/BACKSPACE on a RS232 terminal while switching on the power supply of the target
  • Set IP addresses
# env set serverip 192.168.178.90
# env set ipaddr 192.168.178.91
  • bootargs for nfs root (up to Debian Jessie)
# env set rootfs 'root=/dev/nfs nfsroot=192.168.178.90:/work/nfsroot/ ip=192.168.178.91:192.168.178.90::255.255.255.0:dhcom:eth0:none'
  • bootargs for nfs root (since Debian Stretch)
# env set rootfs 'root=/dev/nfs nfsroot=192.168.178.90:/work/nfsroot/,nfsvers=3 ip=192.168.178.91:192.168.178.90::255.255.255.0:dhcom:eth0:none'
  • load Linux kernel and devicetree with tftp (change filename and path to match you setup)
# tftp ${loadaddr} zImage
# tftp ${fdt_addr} dtbs/imx6dl-dhcom3B-pdk2.dtb
  • set bootargs and boot
# run linuxargs
# bootz ${loadaddr} - ${fdt_addr}
  • optional: save it to be permanent
# env set bootcmd 'tftp ${loadaddr} zImage; tftp ${fdt_addr} dtbs/imx6dl-dhcom3B-pdk2.dtb; run linuxargs; bootz ${loadaddr} - ${fdt_addr}
# env save
