Benefits of low power No fan for silent operation Enables use as a media hub Use a USB cable to power the board Avoid carrying an additional power supply Barrel connector power option Free USB OTG port for use as a host May use a USB-to-barrel-connector adapter
Benefits of USB 2.0 HS OTG Acts as a ‘device’ when connected to a PC Provides power to board Able to emulate a network connection Acts as a ‘host’ when connected to a hub Connect to almost endless number of USB peripherals Requires a mini-A to standard-A adapter cable• See http://BeagleBoard.org/hardware for sources
Benefits of boot options Boot from NAND, MMC/SD, serial, or USB Boot options all from OMAP3530 ROM User button Selects alternate boot source at boot• Default: NANDUSBserialMMC/SD• Button pressed: USBserialMMC/SDNAND Avoids “bricking” Reusable in applications Reset button Function may be altered with software
Verifying the hardware Code images, procedure, and sources are provided to verify the board functionality Links to the diagnostics found at http://BeagleBoard.org/support Includes bootloader, Linux kernel, and minimal file system for testing These sources act as examples for software developers
Typically useful peripherals Available from Digi-Key 5V power supply (T450-P5P-ND)• Frees USB port for use as a host Null-modem serial cable (AE9879-ND)• Useful for bootloader and boot console I/O HDMI-to-DVI-D cable (AE10260-ND)• Enables connection to digital monitors USB hub (DA-70227-ND)• Useful for adding USB peripherals Other Serial adapter from IDC10 to DB9• Needed for serial console Hardware specifications and recommended peripherals http://BeagleBoard.org/hardware RSS feed of newly verified peripherals http://feeds.feedburner.com/BeagleBoardPeripherals

Booting the Beagle Board
Equipment at ESC-Boston For you to keep (see box) Beagle Board Rev. B5 SD Card • Configured using MontaVista Linux For you to use in the labs Hub: • Powered USB 2.0 HS Cables:• USB to Beagle power• Mini-A-plug to standard-A-socket• HDMI to DVI-D Montior• DVI-D USB peripherals• keyboard and mouse22SDPowerDVI-DUSBDesktop Computer Configuration
Out of the box… Beagle Board is meant to teach No Linux kernel or file system is typically provided• This allows for alternative file systems• It encourages others to provide solutions A boot-loader is provided for basic hardware tests• Tries to avoid people thinking the board is dead Boot-loader is not configured to boot from anywhere Serial connection is typical A little help to move the class along 20 “boot config” SD cards to be passed around the room Insert card, hold USER button, apply power, and release They take about a minute to reconfigure the flash• Follow instructions at the two queries (swap SD cards)• Completed when at the “Angstrom” login prompt23
Typical Beagle Board boot processhttp://www.ti.com/litv/pdf/sprufd6a ROM attempts to load boot image from 4 places Sequence of attempts depends if USER button pressed• Not-pressed: NANDUSBserialMMC/SD• Pressed: USBserialMMC/SDNAND X-Loader is loaded by the ROM X-loader (MLO) loads u-boot.bin directly Often simply from same media MMC/SD boot has formatting requirements• Boot partition must be marked bootable and be FAT• MLO must be the first file loaded into the directory tree• Deleted/renamed files in the root directory can disturb boot• Low-level format (Cylinders/Heads/Sectors) matters One existing modification tries MMC/SD before flash By default, programmed into the first partition on the flash (mtd0) By default, loads u-boot stored in the second partition (mtd1) U-boot loads kernel and passes bootargs Instructions typically stored in environment on flash (mtd2)• A default environment is stored in u-boot for when the flash isn’t programmed• Hack in the u-boot on the “boot config” cards alters this to read environment from SD Currently supports only a serial console• Possible to modify to support USB keyboard/mouse and DVI-D monitor Typically loads the kernel from flash (mtd3) or first partition (mmcblk0p1) Kernel mounts root file system based on bootargs24
The ESC boot modificationshttp://jkridner.s3.amazonaws.com/esc/readme.txt U-boot hackhttp://www.beagleboard.org/uploads/u-boot-omap3/ignorenv.txt Started with Steve Sakoman’s u-boot-omap3 sourcehttp://www.beagleboard.org/irclogs/index.php?date=2008-10-21http://www.sakoman.net/cgi-bin/gitweb.cgi?p=u-boot-omap3.git;a=summary In common/env_common.c, calls set_default_env();• Overwrites values read from non-volatile environment• Uses built-in values from include/configs/omap3_beagle.h In omap3_beagle.h, altered default environment• Enabled ‘autoscr’ command to execute scripts from memory• Configured bootcmd to automatically run ‘autoscr’– mmcinit;fatload mmc 0 801f0000 u-boot.img;autoscr 801f0000 Created multiple u-boot.img files with ‘mkubootcmd’• Files must be processed by u-boot tool called ‘mkimage’• ‘mkubootcmd’ is a shell script that calls ‘mkimage’• u-boot.img on the SD configures for NAND flash bootload25
ESC boot modifications continued Modified ramdisk.gz Started with Angstrom pre-built console imagehttp://ewi546.ewi.utwente.nl/~koen/Angstrom-console-image-glibc-ipk-2008.1-test-20080827-beagleboard.rootfs.tar.bz2 Converted to ramdisk image• dd if=/dev/zero of=ramdisk bs=1k count=32768• mkfs.ext2 ramdisk• mount -o loop ramdisk /mnt• pushd /mnt; tar -xvjf Angstrom….tar.bz2; popd• umount /mnt• gzip ramdisk Loaded multiple packages for manipulating the flash Executes /media/mmcblk0p1/boot.sh• Added /etc/init.d/boot_sh26
ESC boot modifications continued (2) boot.sh Initializes flash (/media/mtdblock4)• flash_eraseall /dev/mtd4• mkdir /empty; pushd /empty; mkfs.jffs2 -o /dev/mtd4; popd• mkdir /media/mtdblock4• mount -t jffs2 /dev/mtdblock4 /media/mtdblock4 Copy files off of the SD card onto the flash• cp -v /media/mmcblk0p1/* /media/mtdblock4• pushd /media/mtdblock4; tar -xvzf /media/mmcblk0p1/rootfs.tgz Modify provided SD card with MV Linux• Fix a couple of links that were left off by accident• Copy hacked u-boot.bin and commands to load from SD card27

Power Management IntroductionPower management aims to improve battery life of equipment by minimizing power consumption while guaranteeing expected system performanceActive power consumption occurs while some processing is on-going Dynamic power consumption (transistor switching) + Leakage consumption Static (also Standby or Idle) power consumption occurs when limited or no processing is on-going and the system is waiting for a wakeup event Very limited dynamic power consumption + Leakage consumption Managed by Dynamic Voltage & Frequency Scaling (DVFS) Adaptive Voltage Scaling (AVS) Dynamic Power Switching (DPS)On OMAP35xx, power management is handled by the Power, Reset and Clock Management (PRCM) module
Dynamic Voltage and FrequencyOPP ARM MHz Vdd1 OPP L3 MHz Vdd25 600 1.35 3 166 1.154 550 1.27 2 100 13 500 1.2 1 41.5 0.92 250 11 125 0.9OMAP35xx Higher voltage needed to meet higher performance (frequency) No need to run at the highest frequency (and highest voltage and power) all the time Depending on performance required by the application scenario, can lower clocks and lower voltage, thereby lowering power consumption Define and characterize Operating Performance Points (OPPs) for the device. OPP is a voltage and frequency pair, specifying the minimum voltage at which all devices can meet that frequency requirement (i.e. if a device is picked at random and supplied with the OPP voltage, it will be capable of running at the OPP frequency no matter where it falls on the process curve) DVFS applicable to VDD1 and VDD2 in OMAP3
Adaptive Voltage ScalingGreen line: Hot deviceBlue line: Cold device• Silicon manufacturing process yields a distribution of performance capability• For a given frequency requirement:•Devices on hot/strong/fast end of distribution can meet this at a lower voltage•Devices on cold/weak/slow end of distribution need higher voltage• Simple system will set the higher voltage for operating all devices• Smarter system will adapt operating voltage per device: SmartReflex, TI’s Adaptive Voltage Scaling (AVS) implementation

What is “open source”?Form of S/W Delivery Software source code Available to general public Relaxed intellectual property restrictions Group of software licenses May require source code be made available to public License accompanies the software package Often in actual source codeS/W Development Model Principles and practices Promote a collaborative development model Utilize open source software delivery method Culture Collective decisions shared during development
General benefits of open source Faster Innovation Collaborate faster than standard product release cycles Engage and fuel passionate innovators/developers Peer-to-peer conversation and open idea exchange Better Solutions Software quality through expert peer review New preferred peer support through community Faster feedback on product requirements and tools
Why do people participate?Simplified view Leverage community to solve own problems, then share for possible benefits (scratch an itch) May develop solution on their own Benefits are generally improvements to the code Not much benefit required, if no expecting loss May utilize community to various degrees Solve community problems for fame and glory Could just like getting a “pat on the back” Could get a job or contract
Many are professional developers Linux 70% attributed companies• See table at right Firefox Google attributed for $56 million of Mozilla’s $66 million 2006 revenue Google is the default search engine on Firefox search bar Commercial software vendors Share development costs Influence technology direction Enable their proprietary solutions Develop core expertise
Commercial vs. community Beyond commercial benefits of open source Success typically depends heavily on “community” Gartner recommendations for building community Allow participants to self-select Eliminate barriers to participation Provide clear engagement rules for consensus Provide fair and reciprocal ownership and access Make visible historic and current work in progress Make visible individual contribution history Implement agreed standards Decompose problem for parallel development Seek continuous improvement and low-cost integration
Community is a conversation Bill Gatliff (Embedded Systems Conference) How do we motivate embedded systems developers?• [Software support for the platform] is on the mainline• [The platform] just works• What tools are available to me? Matthew Walster (demo scene) How do we motivate a demo hacker?• Make it really, really easy –or–• Make it really hard Tony Lindgren (linux-omap git maintainer) How do we speak to the Linux kernel developers?• Code is the conversation• More patches, less powerpoints
What motivates participants?Categories courtesy of “LugRadio” – it is largely about control Community Participant Likes attention and being part of something big Tinkerer Desires to know how things work and to tweak them Underdog Fan Likes to cheer on anyone who’ll take on the big guys Cheap Want things for free, or as cheap as possible Freedom Crusader Desires to prevent others from controlling their destiny
Linux Most widely utilized open source operating system Clone of the UNIX operating system Licensed under GNU General Public License (GPL) Directly refers to the kernel (OS), but often used to describe a complete set of applications (or distro) based on the Linux kernel A Linux distribution (distro) is a project that manages a collection of Linux-based software Maintained by individuals, loose-knit teams, volunteer organizations, and commercial entities. At $1.8 bln, Linux servers represent 11.9% of all server revenue1 – not bad for “free” software Linux 2.6.9 defect rate of 0.17 defects/klinescompared to the standard benchmark of 25 defects/klines for commercial software2 Source code: http://www.kernel.org/Linux Distribution Timeline[1] Source: IDC[2] Source: Coverity

Git What is Git? Git is a popular version control system designed to handle very large projects with speed and efficiency; it is used mainly for various open source projects, most notably the Linux kernel. Git falls in the category of distributed source code management tools, similar to e.g. GNU Arch or Monotone (or BitKeeper in the proprietary world). Every Git working directory is a full-fledged repository with full revision tracking capabilities, not dependent on network access or a central server. Git is an Open Source project covered by the GNU General Public License v2. It was originally written by Linus Torvalds and is currently maintained by Junio C Hamano.

Features of Git Strong support for non-linear development.: Git supports rapid and convenient branching and merging, and includes powerful tools for visualizing and navigating a non-linear development history. Distributed development. Like most other modern version control systems, Git gives each developer a local copy of the entire development history, and changes are copied from one such repository to another. These changes are imported as additional development branches, and can be merged in the same way as a locally developed branch. Repositories can be easily accessed via the efficient Git protocol (optionally wrapped in ssh) or simply using HTTP - you can publish your repository anywhere without any special web server configuration required. Efficient handling of large projects. Git is very fast and scales well even when working with large projects and long histories. It is commonly an order of magnitude faster than most other revision control systems, and several orders of magnitude faster on some operations. It also uses an extremely efficient packed format for long-term revision storage that currently tops any other open source version control system. Cryptographic authentication of history. The Git history is stored in such a way that the name of a particular revision (a \commit\ in Git terms) depends upon the complete development history leading up to that commit. Once it is published, it is not possible to change the old versions without it being noticed. Also, tags can be cryptographically signed. Toolkit design. Following the Unix tradition, Git is a collection of many small tools written in C, and a number of scripts that provide convenient wrappers. It is easy to chain the components together to do other clever things.

Community participation with Open Embedded
What is Open Embedded (OE)?http://www.openembedded.org OE is like a top-level ‘Makefile’ Sophisticated layer on top of ‘make’ Tool for building distributions Maintains meta-data database for building open source BitBake is a python tool core to OE Database is built of recipes for each package Inheritance for reuse (autotools, …) Satisfies dependencies and follows build steps• Fetch, unpack, patch, configure, compile, stage, install, & package Opkg tool for package management Replacement for Debian ‘dpkg’ Utilizes pre-built package feeds
What role does OE play? Collaboration on entire distribution “Ångstrøm” is a distribution built with OE Full control over almost every aspect Tool chain, package set, patches, kernel,... Relatively complete starting point ‘armv7a’ compiled binaries in “Ångstrøm” Possible to take a “demo” snapshot Play with higher-level development
What does Ångstrøm provide today?http://beagleboard.org/project/angstrom Browsers Gecko: Firefox 3, Fennec, … WebKit: Epiphany, … Media FFmpeg, XMMS, GStreamer, MythTV, … Development C, Java, Python, Perl, Mono, Ruby, Tk, … Gaming, Networking, …http://www.angstrom-distribution.org/repo/
Installing Ångstrøm onto NAND SD card FAT formatted (default, optionally bootable) boot/kernel/ramdisk to get into OE console• Can store kernel (and ramdisk) in flash Copy of tar.bz2 of full file system image desired Boot console image bootargs = console=ttyS2,115200n8 ramdisk_size=32768 root=/dev/ram0 rw rootfstype=ext2 initrd=0x81600000,32M bootcmd = mmcinit;fatload mmc 0 80300000 uImage;fatload mmc 0 81600000 angstrom-console-rd.gz Flash board opkg install mtd-utils; opkg install mkfs-jffs2 flash_eraseall /dev/mtd4; mkfs.jffs2 -o /dev/mtdblock4 mkdir /mnt/flash; mount -t jffs2 /dev/mtdblock4 /mnt/flash tar xvjf Angstrom-XXX.rootfs.tar.bz2 -C /mnt/flash Boot new file system bootargs = console=ttyS2,115200n8 console=tty0 root=/dev/mtdblock4 rw rootfstype=jffs2 nohz=off video=omapfb:vram:2M,vram:4M bootcmd = nand read 80200000 280000 400000; bootm 80200000http://beagleboard.org/demo/angstrom
What is Open Embedded made from? BitBake build tool Specifically written for top level make problem space Uses inheritance to factor common support from recipes Simple language with shell sequences Language elements and functions can use Python for advanced cases Meta-data Package recipes and classes A number of distribution definitions A number of platform definitions A version control repository of the meta-data Uses Monotone for SCM (moving to Git) Maintains dev and (recently) stable branches
OE reference: typical processing Satisfy all dependencies Build (default command) Fetch get the source code Unpack extract the source code Patch apply patches (local or fetched) Configure run any configuration steps Compile do actual compilation Stage install locally for use by other packages Install install product files to temporary directory Package take installed files and place into packageshelloworld, helloworld-dbg, helloworld-dev, helloworld-doc, helloworld-local
Top Level Default OE flow Build toolchain and libraries Build needed components to packages Build file-system image from packages Will take Gigabytes of storage and hours to perform the above on a clean install
Alternate OE flows Use precompiled toolchain Use pre-downloaded source archives Build toolchain and package as an SDK Build collection of packages only Build file-system image from pre-built packages****** This may not be a current capability
What is OE not good for (today) ? Active development of a given component There are ways to use OE in this fashion but it is not a strength and you can lose code if you are not careful GUI tools to guide and monitor All config is edit of text files Build log is very verbose and not visually structured
Limitations and alternatives Limitations Build environment not always well isolated Many build scripts do native build environment tests Alternatives Matrix• Sponsored by ARM: http://linux.onarm.com• Utilizes Scratchbox and QEMU– Reproduces target environment in cross-compile– Relies on emulation on build host Mamona• Targets Nokia Internet Tablets• Utilizes Open Embedded, Scratchbox, and QEMU• Generates Debian source/binary packages• Solves some “partial emulation” problems Native development or managed code environments
Native, managed, and web-based UI code development
Native development Not limited to embedded/cross tools Reach out to broader developer community Native tools easy to install Immediately see impact of your changes Edit local source files with familiar editors You still need to manage your code!• Version control with git, svn, cvs, … Also possible to perform distributed builds Some packages may require larger memory
Managed code Easier to create an emulation environment But what about performance? JIT compilers may be sufficient Performance bottlenecks are often in just a few places• Just optimize where the issue is, but build the rest fast!• Important to make sure the rest is open for optimization Certainly not for every market If you already know C/GTK+/Qt, use what you know! If you are new, this may be a way to get started
Web-based UI development Familiar paradigm for consumers Enables remote control and monitoring Many HTML/JavaScript developers Opens up use of other web services Mapping Order fulfillment Storage Social networking and mediahttp://www.programmableweb.com/scorecard
Web-based UI development (server) Helma is one option for the server side Based on Java Servlet Container and Mozilla Rhino Provides sessions, user management, Write entire applications in XML/HTML and JavaScript• No recompilation required, allowing for dynamic development• Database options for object storage with automatic persistence– Native XML database for flexibility– Java database connection (JDBC) for scale• Drop-in Java .jar files for access to huge libraries of functions Accessing Linux shell and drivers rt=Packages.java.lang.Runtime.getRuntime(); rt.exec(“…”) new Packages.java.io.File(“…”)
Web-based UI development (client) Epiphany-WebKit is one option for the client side Fast rendering, low memory, and good AJAX support WebKit is easy to embed into other applications Demo beagle-web-control-demo used at ARM Developers’ Conferencehttp://www.beagleboard.org/gitweb/?p=beagle-web-control-demo.git;a=summary • Toggles LED states from web browser Uses Angstrom demo setuphttp://beagleboard.org/demo/angstrom
