mmugen 1.0 -澳门皇冠贵宾会网址

purpose of mmugen
-----------------


mmugen is a utility that allows users to generate mmu page table entries for arm cached cores.  the utility processes a text file (known as a rule file) which depicts the memory layout of a particular system and creates one or two binary files containing the necessary entries for the level 1 and level 2 page tables.  this utility can be used to generate v4,v5,v6, or v7 page table formats.  for more information about page table formats or mmu settings for your core, you can refer to your core's trm. 


conditions of use
-----------------


mmugen has been adapted by arm from an original design developed by peter maloy of codesprite, www.codesprite.com


no support will be provided by arm relating to the use of this product.




files included
--------------


this package includes an eclipse project which contains the following source files:
   
main.c            - parses rule file and sets entry bits
level1.c          - generates level 1 page table entries
level2.c          - generates level 2 page table entries
missing_region.c  - fills in missing entries from level 1 or level 2 tables
checking.c        - prints each page table entry for verification purposes
mmugen.h          - contains global structures and function prototypes


it also includes three example rule files:


simple.rule       - a simple rule file which generates v4/v5 format level 1 and level 2 tables  
v6.rule           - a more complex rule file which generates v6 format level 1 and level 2 tables
ct1176_eb.rule    - a flat-mapped rule file which depicts the memory map of an arm emulation baseboard fitted with an arm1176 core tile


using mmugen
------------ 


1) build mmugen.axf using the batch file (build.bat) or the eclipse project provided


2) start rvd, connect to the arm7tdmi rviss model, and load mmugen.axf


3) input the following information when prompted by the semihosting console:


 - the name of the rule file you want to process
 - the name of the level 1 page table binary file  
 - the name of the file which will contain a copy of the generated page table entries
 - whether you have a level 2 table (yes or no)
 - the name of the level 2 page table binary file
 - the base address of the level 2 page table(s)


please note that if the rule file is not in the same directory as mmugen.axf, you will need to use double backslashes ( \\ ) when specifying the rule file in the semihosting console (for example:  ..\\v6.rule).


4) include the generated binary file(s) into your application using incbin. for details about incbin, you can refer to the rvct assembler guide.

important information
---------------------


* do not use / in your comments


* each rule entry must end with the type (e.g. fault, page, section, supersection, largepages, smallpages, extended_smallpages)


* if an unsupported attribute is used for a type, it will be ignored


* if an attribute is not listed, its value is set to zero in the page table entry


* tiny page generation is not supported


* all access control bits (ap bits) in v4/v5 level 2 page tables will be set to a single value


* cacheable and bufferable attributes must be set before the memory type is specify in the rule entry (memory type = normal, device, strongly_ordered)


* the readonly and readwrite attribute must be set before the access permission attribute (e.g. no_access, svc_readwrite, no_usr_write, full_access)


* the first virtual address in your level 1 table must be zero


* to specify the virtual address range, you must use the following format in your rule file:


       virtual beginning_addr to ending_addr


* the physical address of a memory region must follow physical in the rule entry 




outputted messages
------------------


mmu table generation complete


        a correct binary file has been generated.


filling missing page table entries with fault entry 


        no default page table entry is defined for the current level.  missing entries will be defined at fault.


filling missing page table entries with level 1 default entry


        missing table entries will be defined using the level 1 default entry.


filling missing page table entries with level 2 default entry


        missing table entries will be defined using the level 2 default entry.


warning 1: the level 1 page table is # entries, instead of 4096


        the generated level 1 page table is not 4096 entries long.


warning 2: ignoring normal memory type, tex bits have already been set.


        the tex have already been set by one of the outer_xx attributes, so the normal memory type is ignored.


warning 3: ignoring device memory type, tex bits have already been set.


        the tex have already been set by one of the outer_xx attributes, so the device memory type is ignored.


warning 4: ignoring strongly ordered memory type, tex bits have already been set.


        the tex have already been set by one of the outer_xx attributes, so the strongly_ordered memory type is ignored.


error 1: couldn't open rule file

error 2: couldn't open output file


        the output binary file could not be opened


error 3: mmu table could not be generated   


        a correct binary file has not been generated.


error 4: readonly and no_access are not attributes for v7 page tables


        it is invalid to specify a memory region with readonly and no_access attributes in a v7 page table.


error 5: bufferable, not cacheable normal memory is not allowed.


        the input rule file defined a memory region as normal, bufferable, and not cacheable.


error 6: device memory cannot be cacheable.


        the input rule file defined a memory region as device and cacheable. 


error 7: strongly ordered memory cannot be cacheable or bufferable.


        the input rule file defined a memory region as cacheable and/or bufferable. 


error 8: unrecognized word


        the input rule file contains invalid text. 


error 9: mmu page table level not set


        the rule file does not contain a level value.


error 10: section not defined from v1 to v2
        
        the input rule file does not define a region from address v1 to address v2.

        the address range is not divisible by 16mb.


error 12: defined address range cannot be divided into 1mb sections.


        the address range is not divisible by 1mb.


error 13: an invalid entry type was entered.
