Helpful hints:
- I screwed up the existing stub. The correct SPI connection call is
avr_connect_irq(avr_io_getirq(avr,AVR_IOCTL_SPI_GETIRQ(0),SPI_IRQ_OUTPUT), hw.spiFlash.irq + IRQ_W25x20CL_SPI_BYTE_IN);
You did comment you're not as familiar with general programming - For command-register style stuff like you see with SPI/I2C, and many other embedded protocols, I'd suggest learning about bitfields and unions. These are a lot nicer/neater to manipulate (and maintain) than a bunch of &-ed or |-ed bitmasks littered throughout the code. Think of it like being able to "label" parts of a base data type. (From a technical perspective, unions let you interpret the same piece of memory with different data types, and we take advantage of the field-width feature of structs together with this). It leads to some really elegant code that's dead simple to read. (At some point I'll probably clean up the other ones that are in the example code too)
For example - if you have something that takes an 8-bit command, of 2 bits are an opcode, and the other six some sort of memory address, you would define something like this:
typedef union myCmd_t
{
uint8_t byte;
struct
{
uint8_t opcode :2; // trailing :2 is the width of this field.
uint8_t addr :6;
} bits;
} myCmd;
Then, you can use it in a way that's very easy to read for input:
myCmd cmd;
cmd.byte = read_wire();
if (cmd.bits.opcode == OPCODE_DO_SOMETHING)
{
thing->address = cmd.bits.addr;
}
or output:
myCmd cmd;
cmd.bits.opcode = 0xF3;
cmd.bits.addr = 244;
thing.sendData(cmd.byte);
and there's no messy 2^n enums, and basically zero chance of accidentally using the wrong bitmask!

Sure, no worries - Just wanted to make sure it wasn't off-putting because this can be a pretty complicated task if you don't know where to start.
I'm primarily going off the examples and unit test code, as well as interpreting the .h files. the actual function documentation is pretty bad in that regard, it's basically just a list of the functions and the call stack with no info on what the arguments mean or are so I gave up on it. In some cases I've searched the code for a certain keyphrase (e.g "SPI", and then dumped the resulting relevant looking item (SPI_IRQ_OUTPUT) into google or github search to find examples.
VS code with intellisense helps a bit if you know roughly what you're looking for.
The primary thing any implementation/hardware boils down to is adding IRQ table entries for the various inputs/outputs (be they SPI, digital pin changes, PWM pin changes, etc.).
Each part has listeners that act on input signals (avr_irq_register_notify()) and basically just passes out other signals (avr_raise_irq()). So within the context of an object it is basically a standalone entity that knows nothing of the outside world.
You'll definitely need the datasheet for the flash chip so that you know what its SPI commands are. I'd build things up step by step from scratch - an example workflow, basically what I went through with the TMC drivers:
- Implement a simple dummy chip that just listens and printfs out any bytes it receives over SPI - just to make sure it's wired up right and can receive.
- Look at the firmware source to see what it is sending to the flash chip as its first command.
- Notice it's also getting SPI data for other items on the SPI bus.
- Look up the info on the chip select signal for the flash chip, add an IRQ for it and wire it in.
- Use it to filter down to just commands relevant to it.
- Just start working through the commands one by one to get familiar with things... e.g. see if you can send a response to the initial "who are you" query the firmware sends the flash chip.
Might be helpful to alter the firmware and add some debug output to the startup so you can make sure that it's getting what you think you're sending it.
I think most of the relevant bits are available for the heavier lifting in other places - the TMC branch as noted earlier, some bits of the Einsy EEPROM for how to persist the data across reboots, etc.
from mk404.
I'd say that reading now works quite nicely. The xflash file is also persistent, so that's nice.
I think that my only option for the moment for loading multi-lang firmware is using avrdude-slic3r to load a hex file build with PF-build.sh.
@vintagepc What changes did you do to the source to get it to work with the emulator?

I have also pushed up a partial branch with some TMC2130 work in it that may be of use for reference. https://github.com/vintagepc/MK3SIM/tree/%238_TMC2130_Sim
from mk404.
Just wanted to check in - I know it's still early stages but don't hesitate to ask if there's something I can clarify or assist with.
If you'd like something smaller to get familiar with the architecture first, #13 is probably a good simple task to start.
from mk404.
I was really busy with some MBL testing recently. I still don't understand this code quite well. What reference manual are you using for all the functions and their usage?
from mk404.
I’ll take a look later into implementing the spi flash. It should be much easier than the tmc drivers.
Btw, I was wondering what performance you get out of the simulator. The thing is that I run a VM with ubuntu at the moment and the emulation moves really sluggish. If you run linux without a VM, is it worth it?
from mk404.
It is kinda slow for me (though the primary point of reference I have is just reaction to input - encoder twists, knob pushes take 1-2 seconds to register). Hard to say whether that is because of the simulation or the firmware waiting and timing out on responses from things (such as the TMCs) that it's not getting. So I'm hoping it will get better as we get more hardware implemented.
at some point I will try to do a performance profile to see if I can figure out why. but I've found that adding einsy_eeprom_poke(avr, EEPROM_CRASH_DET,0x00) helps a bit - right now it's constantly detecting crashes and trying to re-home which will pause the display until it fails.
The Einsy runs at 16 MHz, I can't imagine that we cannot sufficiently emulate that on a mult-GHz machine.
from mk404.
One other thing of note is that in the simreprap branch there's a comment that marlin does not have a sleep in its idle state so it's constantly running full throttle. That's definitely not helping the situation since even when idle the main loop is going to compete with any ISRs for cpu time.
from mk404.
Currently the only change is related to UDRE0 - I changed the UART0 code to use UART1 instead.
Then you can do a uart_connect_pty on UART1 and you should be able to talk to it with avrdude.
from mk404.
Derp, did not want it to auto-close. >_<
I fixed the UART0 bug so you should be able to have more luck with optiboot now.
