Hi folks, Has anybody brought up linux BSP of Metrowerks on a Logic Products MCF547X EVB with USB host support. I manually turned on the USB HOST (OHCI and EHCI) flags in the config file "defconfig/linux mcf547xevb" file as I could not get "xconfig" to set this up properly. When I loaded the image files using colilo, the console freezes after the following .... host/usb-ohci.c: USB OHCI at membase 0xd0000000, IRQ 69 host/usb-ohci.c: usb-00:01.0, Philips Semiconductors USB 1.1 Host Controller The above was without the EHCI option. It seems that the startup code is failing trying to do something with the Philips USB host chip in the eval board. ANy ideas? Thanks -Narayan

Hello Narayan, Have you contacted Freescale regarding this yet? If not it might be a good idea to ping their support department and see if there are any known issues with the silicon that you're using. https://www.freescale.com/webapp/ruhp.login.framework Thanks,

Some problem here. Maybe you forced usbcore + other usb kernel modules to load. But they can't. They can not load because they need __ioremap and iounmap kernel symbols. Looking into LinuxBSP\linux-2.6.10\arch\m68k\kernel\m68k_ksyms.c gives : #if [...] && !defined(CONFIG_COLDFIRE) //[...] EXPORT_SYMBOL(__ioremap); EXPORT_SYMBOL(iounmap); //[...] #endif /* [...] && !CONFIG_COLDFIRE */ Why this #if ? __ioremap and iounmap are defined in \LinuxBSP\linux-2.6.10\arch\m68k\mm\kmap.c, I don't understand why they are not exported by the kernel... I tried moving the two EXPORT_SYMBOL out of #if bloc, but I then had the same problem : freeze after "host/usb-ohci.c: usb-00:01.0, Philips Semiconductors USB 1.1 Host Controller"

I have two boards with different version: REV 203 and REV B The USB system I tried is Metrowerks's LinuxBSP with kernel version 2.4.26 The result is it works well on REV 203 but shows the same problem above on REV B. When testing the display controller(SM712GE) driver, the almost same result.

@leo Could you explain how you got USB Host Controller working on linux 2.4.26 ? My 2.4.26 linux from Metrowerks does not build when I select USB modules... I'm using a REV 203 board.

This is the copy of the e-mail I received from Ron Liechty of Metrowerks " Hi, I suspect that what you are seeing here is that USB is not supported at all in the currently released bsps. We are working on that, but don't have any date. We do not support the Non-PCS bsps. That is the equivalent of downloading a kernel from kernel.org. You either need to go to http://www.wildrice.com/ColdFire/ for open source help or you may also be able to get some help from LogicPD. http://www.logicpd.com/ Hope this helps, Ron -- Ron Liechty (MW Ron) Ombudsman, Manager FOCUS team ron.liechty@freescale.com "

Rev 203 is earlier than Rev B The difference is the mother board used in the two boards: Rev 203 has a FFE while Rev B has a CFE.
