Terminal read from zedboard

deaxman

When using xillinux, I have been using hexdump -C -n 16 /dev/xillybus_mem_8 to read data that is stored to the memory in the zedboard and thus communicate values to the terminal.  This only gives me 2 hex positions at a time though and just repeats those two even though I specified 16 slots.  Is there any way to fix this and get more digits of hex?  Thanks!

    I suggest just following the flow on the site. The readme file in the bundle you'll download explains what to do with it. You will not trash the ISE project you already have, but rather replace some files and modify it slightly.

    There are no changes necessary on the host's side. The new Xillybus device files will be automatically detected.

    Section 5.1 of the "Getting started with Xillinux for Zynq-7000 EPP" guide discusses changes in the logic. But to make a long story short, you should reimplement the bitfile, generate the boot.bin file using the new bitfile, and then copy the latter to the SD card. And you're done.

    And yes, it's easy.
