For Experts The tasks described in this manual require expert knowledge of Unix/Linux and embedded systems.

This chapter describes how the Radarcape is attached into the Linux system of the Beaglebone. It is only informational, as this is already done on all Radarcapes provided to customers. You just need it if you bring up Linux from zero or want to learn how this step is done.

Device Tree Overlays

Step 0: Get the device tree compiler:

# when using Angstrom
opkg install dtc

# when using Debian
apt-get install device-tree-compiler

Device Tree Overlay Compilation and Installation

Step 2: Compile (on Beaglebone)

# Beaglebone White
dtc -O dtb -o BB-W-Radarcape-00A0.dtbo -b 0 -@ BB-W-Radarcape.dts

# Beaglebone Black
dtc -O dtb -o BB-B-Radarcape-00A0.dtbo -b 0 -@ BB-B-Radarcape.dts

Step 3: Copy to /lib/firmware

cp BB-%-Radarcape-00A0.dtbo /lib/firmware

Step 4b: Create a shortcut to the slots

export SLOTS=$(find /sys/devices -name slots)

Step 4b: Verify slots before appyling

cat $SLOTS

Must result in:
0: 54:PF—
1: 55:PF—
2: 56:PF—
3: 57:PF—

Step 5: Apply the pinmux patches

echo BB-W-Radarcape > $SLOTS

Step 6: The dmesg command will inform you about what has been done (in case that you do that over serial console, you already will have seen this output)

dmesg -s 20

Must result in:
[ 31.862078] bone-capemgr bone_capemgr.8: part_number 'BB-W-Radarcape', version 'N/A'
[ 31.874269] bone-capemgr bone_capemgr.8: slot #4: generic override
[ 31.880473] bone-capemgr bone_capemgr.8: bone: Using override eeprom data at slot 4
[ 31.887937] bone-capemgr bone_capemgr.8: slot #4: 'Override Board Name,00A0,Override Manuf,BB-W-Radarcape'
[ 31.904636] bone-capemgr bone_capemgr.8: slot #4: Requesting part number/version based 'BB-W-Radarcape-00A0.dtbo
[ 31.926576] bone-capemgr bone_capemgr.8: slot #4: Requesting firmware 'BB-W-Radarcape-00A0.dtbo' for board-name 'Override Board Name', version '00A0'
[ 31.952355] bone-capemgr bone_capemgr.8: slot #4: dtbo 'BB-W-Radarcape-00A0.dtbo' loaded; converting to live tree
[ 31.967771] bone-capemgr bone_capemgr.8: slot #4: #2 overlays
[ 31.983656] bone-capemgr bone_capemgr.8: slot #4: Applied #2 overlays.

Step 7: Verify if all is correct

cat $SLOTS

Must result in: 0: 54:PF—
1: 55:PF—
2: 56:PF—
3: 57:PF—
4: ff:P-O-L Override Board Name,00A0,Override Manuf,BB-W-Radarcape

Step 8: Apply the rest of the interfaces from standard device tree files

echo BB-UART5 > $SLOTS
echo BB-UART2 > $SLOTS

Step 9: verify if all is correct

cat $SLOTS

Must result in:
0: 54:PF—
1: 55:PF—
2: 56:PF—
3: 57:PF—
4: ff:P-O-L Override Board Name,00A0,Override Manuf,BB-W-Radarcape
5: ff:P-O-L Override Board Name,00A0,Override Manuf,BB-UART5
6: ff:P-O-L Override Board Name,00A0,Override Manuf,BB-UART2

On Beaglebone-Black it will show up like:
root@rc301:~# SLOTS=$(find /sys/devices -name slots)
root@rc301:~# cat $SLOTS

0: 54:PF---
1: 55:PF---
2: 56:PF---
3: 57:PF---
4: ff:P-O-L Bone-LT-eMMC-2G,00A0,Texas Instrument,BB-BONE-EMMC-2G
5: ff:P-O-- Bone-Black-HDMI,00A0,Texas Instrument,BB-BONELT-HDMI
6: ff:P-O-- Bone-Black-HDMIN,00A0,Texas Instrument,BB-BONELT-HDMIN
7: ff:P-O-L Override Board Name,00A0,Override Manuf,BB-UART5
8: ff:P-O-L Override Board Name,00A0,Override Manuf,BB-UART2
9: ff:P-O-L Override Board Name,00A0,Override Manuf,BB-B-Radarcape

Slot #5 and #6, both showing up with HDMI, are not indicated as Loaded.
