# Getting started on the Beagle Bone Black
|
||||
|
||||
The FSFW can be run on a Beagle Bone Black with the Linux OSAL, using
|
||||
an ARM linux (cross) compiler. Instructions will be provided on how to do this.
|
||||
|
||||
## General Information
|
||||
|
||||
The following instructions will show how to build the example on the Beagle Bone Black directly.
|
||||
It will also show how to cross-compile on a host machine and mirror the Beagle Bone sysroot folder
|
||||
on the host machine so that the same libraries and headers used on the BBB are used
|
||||
for the cross-compilation process.
|
||||
|
||||
Some Eclipse project files were provided as well to help with setting up the indexer in Eclipse
|
||||
more quickly.
|
||||
|
||||
## Prerequisites for direct compilation and cross-compiling
|
||||
|
||||
1. SSH connection to the Beagle Bone Black working
|
||||
2. Beagle Bone Black linux environment set up properly
|
||||
3. `CMake` installed
|
||||
|
||||
## Setting up general prerequisites for Linux systems
|
||||
|
||||
1. Install CMake and rsync
|
||||
|
||||
```sh
|
||||
sudo apt-get install cmake rsync
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
2. Configure the Beagle Bone Black Linux environment. The last section of the
|
||||
[Linux README](README-linux.md#top) specifies how to set up a UNIX environment for the FSFW and
|
||||
is also applicable to the Beagle Bone Black. SSH into the BBB and
|
||||
follow the instructions in that section.
|
||||
|
||||
3. Install the `gpiod` library
|
||||
|
||||
```sh
|
||||
sudo apt-get install gpiod libgpiod-dev
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
## Getting started on the Beagle Bone Black
|
||||
|
||||
Make sure to follow the steps above. Now you should be able to build the software on
|
||||
the Beagle Bone Black. A ssh connection to the Raspberry Pi is assumed here
|
||||
|
||||
You can build the software with the following commands
|
||||
|
||||
```sh
|
||||
mkdir build-Debug-BBB
|
||||
cd build-Debug-BBB
|
||||
cmake -DOS_FSFW=linux -DTGT_BSP=arm/beagleboneblack -DLINUX_CROSS_COMPILE=OFF -DCMAKE_BUILD_TYPE=Debug ..
|
||||
cmake --build . -j2
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
## Prerequisites for cross-compiling
|
||||
|
||||
These prerequisites are valid for Linux as well as Windows hosts.
|
||||
|
||||
1. ARM Linux cross compiler installed
|
||||
2. Beagle Bone Black sysroot folder mirrored on the host machine, using `rsync`
|
||||
3. gdb-multiarch installed on host for remote debugging or `tcf-agent` running on the BBB
|
||||
|
||||
## Cross-Compiling on a Linux Host
|
||||
|
||||
### Setting up prerequisites for cross-compiling
|
||||
|
||||
## Cross-Compiling on a Windows Host
|
||||
|
||||
### Additional Prerequites
|
||||
|
||||
1. [MSYS2](https://www.msys2.org/) installed. All command line steps shown here
|
||||
were performed in the MSYS2 MinGW64 shell (not the default MSYS2, use MinGW64!).
|
||||
Replace `<UserName>` with respectively. It is recommended to set up
|
||||
aliases in the `.bashrc` file to allow quick navigation to the `fsfw_example`
|
||||
repository and to run `git config --global core.autocrlf true` for git in
|
||||
MinGW64.
|
||||
|
||||
### Setting up prerequisites for Windows
|
||||
|
||||
1. Install CMake and rsync in MinGW64 after installing MSYS2
|
||||
|
||||
```
|
||||
pacman -S mingw-w64-x86_64-cmake rsync
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
2. Configure the Beagle Bone Black linux environment. The last section of the
|
||||
[Linux REAMDE](README-linux.md#top) specifies how to set up a UNIX environment
|
||||
for the FSFW and isalso applicable to the Raspberry Pi. SSH into the
|
||||
Beagle Bone Black and follow the instructions in that section.
|
||||
|
||||
3. Install the correct [ARM Linux cross-compile toolchain](https://releases.linaro.org/components/toolchain/binaries/latest-7/).
|
||||
provided by Linaro.
|
||||
|
||||
Test the toolchain by running:
|
||||
|
||||
```sh
|
||||
arm-linux-gnueabihf-gcc --version
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
4. Set up a sysroot folder on the local host machine. Make sure the SSH connection to
|
||||
the Raspberry Pi is working without issues. Then perform the following steps
|
||||
|
||||
```sh
|
||||
cd /c/Users/<UserName>
|
||||
mkdir beaglebone
|
||||
cd beaglebone
|
||||
mkdir rootfs
|
||||
cd rootfs
|
||||
pwd
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
Store the result of `pwd`, it is going to be used by `rsync` later.
|
||||
|
||||
Now use rsync to clone the Rapsberry Pi sysroot to the local host machine.
|
||||
You can replace `<ip-address>` with `beaglebone.local` to use DNS.
|
||||
Use the rootfs location stored from the previous steps as `<rootfs-path>`.
|
||||
|
||||
```sh
|
||||
rsync -vR --progress -rl --delete-after --safe-links <username>@<ip-address>:/{lib,usr,opt/vc/lib} <rootfs-path>
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
5. There might be some issues with the pthread symbolic links. Navigate to the folder
|
||||
containing the symlinks
|
||||
|
||||
```sh
|
||||
cd /c/User/<UserName>/beaglebone/rootfs/usr/lib/arm-linux-gnueabihf
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
Type `more libpthread`, press `TAB` and check whether the symbolic
|
||||
link `libpthread.so` is shown. If it is not, we are going to set it up
|
||||
manually to avoid issues when linking against `pthread` later.
|
||||
|
||||
Run the following command to create a symlink to `libpthread.so.0`
|
||||
|
||||
```sh
|
||||
ln -s ../../../lib/arm-linux-gnueabihf/libpthread.so.0 libpthread.so
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
Please note that there might also be issues with some symlinks or libraries not being copied
|
||||
properly. This has occured with files like `libc.so.6`. If there are linker issues at a later
|
||||
stage, you can try to rerun `rsync` without `--safe-links` or copy the shared libraries or
|
||||
symlinks manually from the Raspberry Pi to the sysroot with `scp`.
|
||||
|
||||
For example, you can copy `libc.so.6` from the Raspberry Pi to the sysroot with
|
||||
the following command
|
||||
|
||||
```sh
|
||||
scp pi@<ip-address>:lib/arm-linux-gnueabihf/lib.so.6 <rootfs-path>/lib/arm-linux-gnueabihf
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
6. It is recommended to install `gdb-multiarch`.
|
||||
This tool will allow remote debugging on the host computer. Replace
|
||||
`x86_64` with the correct processor architecture for other architectures.
|
||||
|
||||
```sh
|
||||
pacman -S mingw-w64-x86_64-gdb-multiarch
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
7. Perform the steps [in the following chapter](#cross-test) to build the
|
||||
software for the Raspberry Pi and test it.
|
||||
|
||||
## <a id="cross-test"></a> Testing the cross-compilation
|
||||
|
||||
It is recommended to set the following environmental variables for the CMake build:
|
||||
- `CROSS_COMPILE`: Explicitely specify the name of the cross compiler
|
||||
- `RASPBIAN_ROOTFS`: Explicitely set the path to the local BBB rootfs
|
||||
|
||||
For example with the following commands
|
||||
|
||||
```sh
|
||||
export CROSS_COMPILE="arm-linux-gnueabihf"
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
It is recommended to test whether the environmental variables were set correctly,
|
||||
for example by running
|
||||
|
||||
```sh
|
||||
echo $RASPBIAN_ROOTFS
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
These variables can either be set every time before a debugging session to
|
||||
keep the environment clean (should be done before starting Eclipse)
|
||||
or permanently by adding the `export` commands to system files.
|
||||
|
||||
A helper script has been provided in `cmake/scripts/BBB` to perform
|
||||
setting up the environment. The scripts need to be `source`d instead of
|
||||
being run like regular shell scripts.
|
||||
|
||||
You can also set up the environmental variables permanently by adding the
|
||||
export commands to the `.profile` or `.bashrc` file in the `$HOME` folder.
|
||||
On Windows, MinGW64 was used to set up the build system, so you can use the
|
||||
MinGW64 `.bashrc` file to do this. If you are using Eclipse to build
|
||||
the software, Eclipse will have the system variables from Windows,
|
||||
so it is recommended to either permanently set the three environmental
|
||||
variables in the Windows system environmental variables or add them in
|
||||
Eclipse. See the [Eclipse README](README-eclipse.md#top) for more information.
|
||||
|
||||
Now we can test whether everything was set up properly by compiling the example
|
||||
and running it on the BBB via command line. Navigate into the `fsfw_example` folder first.
|
||||
|
||||
1. Build the software locally to test the cross-compilation process.
|
||||
A debug build directory is created first.
|
||||
|
||||
```sh
|
||||
mkdir build-Debug-BBB
|
||||
cd build-Debug-BBB
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
2. Configure the build system. On Linux, run the following command:
|
||||
|
||||
```sh
|
||||
cmake -G "Unix Makefiles" -DOS_FSFW=linux -DTGT_BSP=arm/beagleboneblack -DLINUX_CROSS_COMPILE=ON -DCMAKE_BUILD_TYPE=Debug ..
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
On Windows, replace `-G "Unix Makefiles"` with `-G "MinGW Makefiles"`.
|
||||
|
||||
Alternatively, you can use the helper shell scripts located inside `cmake/scripts/BBB/crosscompile`
|
||||
or the Python helper script `cmake_build_config.py` inside the `cmake/scripts` folder.
|
||||
The `BBB` folder also contains template shell files which can be `source`d
|
||||
to quickly set up the environmental variables if you want to keep the system path clean.
|
||||
|
||||
3. Run the binary to test it
|
||||
|
||||
```sh
|
||||
scp fsfw_example <username>@beaglebone.local:/home/fsfw_example
|
||||
ssh <username>@beaglebone.local
|
||||
./fsfw_example
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
### Setting up Eclipse for a BBB remote target
|
||||
|
||||
It is recommended to use the provided Eclipse project files and
|
||||
launch configurations to have a starting point. See the specific section in
|
||||
the [Eclipse README](README-eclipse.md#top) for information how to do this.
|
||||
|
||||
#### Windows
|
||||
|
||||
There are some additional steps necessary on Windows: The cross-compiler by
|
||||
default is configured to look for the cross-compiler in `/opt/cross-pi-gcc/bin`.
|
||||
The toolchain path needs to be corrected, for example like shown in the following image:
|
||||
|
||||
<img align="center" src="./images/eclipse/eclipse-cross-compile-win.png" width="50%">
|
||||
|
||||
|
||||
## Setting up the TCF agent on the BBB
|
||||
|
||||
It is recommended to set up a [TCF agent](https://wiki.eclipse.org/TCF) for comfortable
|
||||
Eclipse remote debugging. The following steps show how to setup the TCF agent
|
||||
on the Raspberry Pi and add it to the auto-startup applications. The steps are taken
|
||||
from [this guide](https://wiki.eclipse.org/TCF/Raspberry_Pi)
|
||||
|
||||
1. Install required packages on the RPi
|
||||
|
||||
```sh
|
||||
sudo apt-get install git uuid uuid-dev libssl-dev
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
2. Clone the repository and perform some preparation steps
|
||||
```sh
|
||||
git clone git://git.eclipse.org/gitroot/tcf/org.eclipse.tcf.agent.git
|
||||
cd org.eclipse.tcf.agent.git/agent
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
3. Build the TCF agent
|
||||
```sh
|
||||
make
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
and then test it by running
|
||||
|
||||
```sh
|
||||
obj/GNU/Linux/arm/Debug/agent –S
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
4. Finally install the agent for auto-start with the following steps. And set it up for
|
||||
auto-start.
|
||||
|
||||
```sh
|
||||
cd org.eclipse.tcf.agent/agent
|
||||
make install
|
||||
sudo make install INSTALLROOT=
|
||||
sudo update-rc.d tcf-agent defaults
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
The [Eclipse README](README-eclipse.md#top) specifies how to perform remote
|
||||
debugging using the TCF agent.

Store the result of `pwd`, it is going to be used by `rsync` later.
|
||||
|
||||
|
||||
Now use rsync to clone the Rapsberry Pi sysroot to the local host machine.
|
||||
With a Raspberry Pi 4, you can replace `<ip-address>` with `raspberrypi.local`.
|
||||
Use the rootfs location stored from the previous steps as `<rootfs-path>`.
|
||||
|
||||
|
||||
```sh
|
||||
rsync -vR --progress -rl --delete-after --safe-links pi@<ip-address>:/{lib,usr,opt/vc/lib} <rootfs-path>
|

```
|

5. There might be some issues with the pthread symbolic links. Navigate to the folder
|
||||
containing the symlinks
|
||||
|
||||
|
||||
```sh
|
||||
cd /c/User/<UserName>/raspberrypi/rootfs/usr/lib/arm-linux-gnueabihf
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
|
||||
Type `more libpthread`, press `TAB` and check whether the symbolic
|
||||
link `libpthread.so` is shown. If it is not, we are going to set it up
|
||||
manually to avoid issues when linking against `pthread` later.
|
||||
|
||||
|
||||
Run the following command to create a symlink to `libpthread.so.0`
|
||||
|
||||
|
||||
```sh
|
||||
ln -s ../../../lib/arm-linux-gnueabihf/libpthread.so.0 libpthread.so
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
|
||||
Please note that there might also be issues with some symlinks or libraries not being copied
|
||||
properly. This has occured with files like `libc.so.6`. If there are linker issues at a later
|
||||
stage, you can try to rerun `rsync` without `--safe-links` or copy the shared libraries or
|
||||
symlinks manually from the Raspberry Pi to the sysroot with `scp`.
|
||||
|
||||
|
||||
For example, you can copy `libc.so.6` from the Raspberry Pi to the sysroot with
|
||||
the following command
|
||||
|
||||
|
||||
```sh
|
||||
scp pi@<ip-address>:lib/arm-linux-gnueabihf/lib.so.6 <rootfs-path>/lib/arm-linux-gnueabihf
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
|
||||
6. It is recommended to install `gdb-multiarch`.
|
||||
This tool will allow remote debugging on the host computer. Replace
|
||||
`x86_64` with the correct processor architecture for other architectures.
|
||||
|
||||
|
||||
```sh
|
||||
pacman -S mingw-w64-x86_64-gdb-multiarch
|
||||
```

||||
7. Perform the steps [in the following chapter](#cross-test) to build the
|
||||
software for the Raspberry Pi and test it.
|
||||
|
||||
|
||||
## <a id="cross-test"></a> Testing the cross-compilation
|
||||
|
||||
It is recommended to set the following environmental variables for the CMake build:
|
||||
- `CROSS_COMPILE`: Explicitely specify the name of the cross compiler
|
||||
- `RASPBERRY_VERSION`: Explicitely specify the version of the Raspberry Pi
|
||||
- `RASPBIAN_ROOTFS`: Explicitely set the path to the local RPi rootfs
|
||||
|
||||
|
||||
For example with the following commands
|
||||
|
||||
|
||||
```sh
|
||||
export CROSS_COMPILE="arm-linux-gnueabihf"
|
||||
export RASPBERRY_VERSION="4"
|
||||
export RASPBIAN_ROOTFS="<pathToRootFS>"
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
|
||||
|
||||
It is recommended to test whether the environmental variables were set correctly,
|
||||
for example by running
|
||||
|
||||
|
||||
```sh
|
||||
echo $RASPBIAN_ROOTFS
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
|
||||
These variables can either be set every time before a debugging session to
|
||||
keep the environment clean (should be done before starting Eclipse)
|
||||
or permanently by adding the `export` commands to system files.

```sh

||||
cmake -G "Unix Makefiles" -DOS_FSFW=linux -DTGT_BSP=arm/raspberrypi -DLINUX_CROSS_COMPILE=ON -DCMAKE_BUILD_TYPE=Debug ..

||||
|
||||
|
||||
On Windows, replace `-G "Unix Makefiles"` with `-G "MinGW Makefiles"`.
|
||||
|
||||
|
||||
Alternatively, you can use the helper shell scripts located inside `cmake/scripts/RPi/crosscompile`
|
||||
or the Python helper script `cmake_build_config.py` inside the `cmake/scripts` folder.
|
||||
The `RPi` folder also contains template shell files which can be `source`d
|
||||
to quickly set up the environmental variables if you want to keep the system path clean.
