linux-3.4.5内核移植到OMAP-L138

最近花点时间，将手头上的基于OMAP-L138处理器的Linux内核平台进行了升级，移植了linux-3.4.5版本的内核。移植过程中遇到了不少问题，后续将会贴出所遇到问题对应的解决过程，首先贴出移植后的Linux-3.4.5内核启动信息吧！

问题一：无法识别NorFlash中的分区信息

    NorFlash的分区信息是uboot传递给内核，但是启动后一直无法看到以下信息：

  看到这个关键打印信息“physmap platform flash device: 07800000 at 60000000”就知道问题所在了，需要修改内核的配置，相关详细配置如下(需要与实际硬件板上设定保持一致)：

/* important notice--mtd driver configuration 
*  Device Drivers --->    
*        <*> Memory Technology Device (MTD) support --->
*            <*> Mapping drivers for chip acccess --->
*               <*> Flash device in physical memory map 
*               [*] Physmap compat support
*               (0x60000000) Physical start address of flash mapping
*               (0x07800000) Physical length of flash mapping
*               (2) Bank width in octets 
*/

    其实只要对linux内核相关配置选项有一定了解的人来说，该配置不难解决。

问题二：无法识别以太网卡

    造成这个问题的主要原因还是内核的配置有问题，需要选定Davinci的EMAC驱动，相关详细配置如下：

/* important notice--net driver configuration 
*  Device Drivers --->    
*        [*] Network device support --->
*            --- Network device support
*            [*] Ethernet deriver support --->
*               --- Network device support
*               [*] Micrel devices
*               [*] Texas Instruments (TI) devices
*               <*> TI DaVinci EMAC Support
*/

    设定相关配置后，在启动后使用ifconfig -a命令可以正常看到eth0

问题3：使用ifconfig eth0命令时打印mdio驱动无法找到对应的phy设备(具体的打印信息忘了截取)

  解决思路是在arch\arm\mach-davinci\board-da850-evm.c文件中，修改PHY_ID，保持与硬件网卡的PHY_ADDR置一致

//#define DA850_EVM_PHY_ID          "davinci_mdio-0:00"//原内核配置

#define DA850_EVM_PHY_ID"davinci_mdio-0:07" //Added by xxxxx--keep the same with your schematics

    

问题4：使用ifconfig eth0命令时打印eth0的irq中断处理注册失败(具体的打印信息忘了截取)

    查找打印信息，可以定位到源码以下位置：drivers\net\ethernet\ti\davinci_emac.c中的static int emac_dev_open(struct net_device *ndev)函数

    在该函数中当eth设备激活时会进行中断的注册，代码是：

                         if (request_irq(i, emac_irq, IRQF_DISABLED,
ndev->name, ndev))
goto rollback;

    该部分代码有点小问题，由于OMAP_L138芯片的eth的数据收发很多都是采用共享中断进行处理，因此注册中断处理函数时记得添加IRQF_SHARED标志，表明该中断线上的中断处理支持共享。修改后的代码如下：

                         if (request_irq(i, emac_irq, (IRQF_DISABLED | IRQF_SHARED), //Added by Kevin Liu should added IRQF_SHARED
ndev->name, ndev))
goto rollback;
