Hi Michael,

 

Ø  You have to find out their addresses under RTEMS and adapt the arguments to the driver setup call in your st.cmd accordingly.

 

I don’t think that is true, the driver hides that by mapping the VME address (which should be the same on vxWorks and RTEMS) to the CPU address.

 

The current master branch of drvOms58.cc contains this:

#ifdef vxWorks

            status = devRegisterAddress(__FILE__, OMS_ADDRS_TYPE,

                                        (size_t) probeAddr, OMS_BRD_SIZE,

                                        (volatile void **) &localaddr);

            Debug(9, "motor_init: devRegisterAddress() status = %d\n", (int) status);

            if (!RTN_SUCCESS(status))

            {

                errPrintf(status, __FILE__, __LINE__, "Can't register address 0x%x\n",

                          (unsigned int) probeAddr);

                return(ERROR);

            }

#endif

 

So it uses devLib to map the VME address (from the startup script) to a local CPU address.  That should make the startup script OS-independent.  But notice that this is in an ifdef for vxWorks.

 

There is a recent pull request to remove that vxWorks dependency.  Which version of the code you are running?

 

Mark
