Single PPC on Virtex 2 Pro DMA problems

Aug 25, 2005 2 Replies

Hey to all,



Background information: I am doing a project which has a single ppc and a specialize DES core in a Virtex 2 Pro using EDk 7.1 aas design tool. The situation is concerning the drivers generated by the EDK 7.1 for testing the core functionality in software. The EDK 7.1 generates a driver and with this driver comes a self test (unit test) for the driver which tests the register r/w, the fifos r/w and the DMA transfers in my case all the tests except for the DMA seem to worked fine. For some reason the DMA test doesn't give me the expected output. Here is a snippet of the code:



Note: This Test is for Single DES CBC Decrypt with Key =



0123456789ABCDEF and IV = 1234567890ABCDEF

Xuint8 SrcBuffer[MULTI_DES_SELFTEST_BUFSIZE] Xuint8 DstBuffer[MULTI_DES_SELFTEST_BUFSIZE]



// SrcBuffer is initialize via a loop to contain '0xE5C7CDDE872BF27C'



for( Index = 0; Index < MULTI_DES_SELFTEST_BUFSIZE; Index + 8) { SrcBuffer[ Index ] = 0xE5; SrcBuffer[ Index + 1 ] = 0xC7; SrcBuffer[ Index + 2 ] = 0xCD; SrcBuffer[ Index + 3 ] = 0xDE; SrcBuffer[ Index + 4 ] = 0x87; SrcBuffer[ Index + 5 ] = 0x2B; SrcBuffer[ Index + 6 ] = 0xF2; SrcBuffer[ Index + 7 ] = 0x7C; } // THe DstBuffer is initialize to zeroes ...



// The DMA is reset MULTI_DES_mResetDMA0(baseaddr);



// The DMA setup MULTI_DES_mSetDMA0Control(baseaddr, DMA_SINC_MASK | DMA_LOCAL_MASK );



// DMA transfer MULTI_DES_DMA0Transfer( baseaddr, baseaddr + MULTI_DES_WRFIFO_DATA_OFFSET, MULTI_DES_SELTEST_BUFSIZE);



but when I look at the results there are nothing like the expected value: '0x4E6F772069732074'



Thanks, Noel
