程序主要作用是通过串口下载VxWorks到ARM Flash ROM,主要过程是初始化ARM硬件,初始化串口UART1,从串口接收VxWorks image到DRAM,初始化Flash ROM.最后将DRAM中的VxWorks写入Flash ROM. ARM 串口与PC机串口连接,由PC机下载(download)VxWorks 到主板Flash ROM.

该程序对学习和理解ARM编程很有帮助.为了便于理解,这里我全部采用实际地址,不用宏定义.

程序语言为 ARM 汇编,具体过程参考ARM编程,具体寄存器接口定义参见ARM硬件手册

VramBaseAddress EQU 0xC0000000 ;DRAM起始地址,在ARM硬件地址映射定义,见ARM编程

Length1 EQU 0x100

FlashBase EQU 0x70000000;Flash的基地址,在Boot模式下,为0x70000000

STR r0, [r11, #0x100] ;使能外部时钟 EXCKEN 和串口 UART1

LDR r0, =0x06 ;在系统控制寄存器SYSCON2中

STR r0, [r12, #0x100] ;使能16-bit DRAM, 键盘KBD6

LDR r0, =0x03010100 ;在存储控制寄存器MEMCFG1中

STR r0, [r11, #0x180] ;设置外设数据线宽度CS0:16位,CS1,2:32位,CS3:8位

;特别注意:

如设置线宽为16位,由于CPU是32位,CPU会把32位数据分两次操作写入,每次写16位,这样对32位的外设来说是一种浪费

例如: LDR r0, =0x10000000

LDR r1, =0x12345678

STR r1,[r0]

实际情况是 第一次写入地址0x10000000的数据是 0x1234

第二次写入地址0x10000002的数据是 0x5678

示波器上观察的情况是一个片选信号/CS低电平范围内,有两个写入信号/WE低电平.

如设置线宽为32位,CPU会把32位数据一次写入,如果外设是16位的话,如ISA网卡,就会造成高16位丢失.

例如: LDR r0, =0x10000000

LDR r1, =0x12345678

STR r1,[r0]

实际情况是 一次写入地址0x10000000的数据是 0x12345678
