crt

Fast and simple insert code into crt0.s

Submitted by imajeff on Fri, 2006-09-22 18:22. Advise | Tricks

Some time ago there was a question of the sort, "How do I make my own crt0.o file". Then the buzz started, and everyone was talking about how to do these things, including relocating RAM and other hardware configuration.

It seemed overly dificult to worry about things like finding the original crt0.s file (I've only found it burried in the GCC source code), and taking chances of changing too much so it didn't properly initialize RAM and such. Well, I have a solution where all I do is insert my startup code in a specific slot within the default crt0.s without having to edit that file!

Here is my entire "startup.s" file:

startup.s

;;; Startup code
;;; Author Jefferson Smith
.section .install1
movb #0x39,0x10 ; INITRM: end 0x3fff
movb #0x00,0x11 ; INITRG: start 0
movb #0x08,0x12 ; INITEE: end 0x0fff

Referring to the guide "Using the GNU Development Tools for 68HC11 and 68HC12" section 4.2, I notice that the memory section ".install1" is a "placeholder for applications". The reason is that if I add code to this section, it is automatically inserted between the stack pointer initialization and the default RAM initialization. This is a wonderful place to relocate RAM or hardware registers because no stack was used (have not called __premain() yet) and no memory was accessed except the instruction to initialize SP.

If you have quite a lot of code to insert here, you could `call` into a PPAGE bank so the init code doesn't take up fixed Flash space.

This is an example of the link commandline that uses startup.s:

m6811-elf-gcc -m68hcs12 -mshort -Wl,-T,ldscript-rom.x -mrelax -o test.elf test.o vectors.o startup.o -lm -lbcc -lc -lbcc

Simply adding startup.o to the list of objects inserts the code.

The Finger Board operates the 68HC11 in "Special Mode". This causes the interrupt vectors to be located at address $BFC0-BFFF. While operating in "Special Mode", the 68HC11 can switch back and forth between expanded mode operation and single-chip mode. Interactive C switches the 68HC11 to single-chip mode when it communicates with the LCD since the LCD module cannot communicate at the normal rate of the peripheral bus.

On power-up with S1 depressed, the 68HC11 enters "Special Bootstrap Mode". This is when the internal boot loader is used to upload a more extensive bootloader which will then load your srecord program code. After your program code has been loaded and a reset is issued, the 68HC11 enters "Special Test Mode" and will automatically jump to the program with the reset vector location stored at $BFFE:BFFF.

When using other languages, make sure to declare your interrupt vectors in the "Special Mode" range of $BFC0 to $BFFF.

The Finger Board II now has the option to set the reset vector to location $FFFE:FFFF with jumper JP18 (MODB).

For more information, please see chapter 3 of the Motorola 68HC11 reference manual.

How much free memory do I have after loading the IC pcode? After loading the pcode, there are approximately 16320 bytes of available program space. The pcode source code can be modified and re-compiled to take up a smaller footprint in memory. Routines such as the IR and Motor PWM subroutines can be deleted if not needed for your application.

This is the approximate breakdown of the memory space. (Thanks to fredm@media.mit.edu)

User program object code + user global variables: 16320 bytes available Runtime pcode OS: 7936 bytes Used stack space for user processes: 6656 bytes Used buffer for interaction process: 256 bytes Used buffer for printing: 256 bytes used

LCD

The Finger Board uses LCD's with the Hitachi chip set HD44100 and HD44780. Some of the older LCD displays require a -5volt bias and will not work. If the version of the LCD contains a single row header, 1 X 14, connect the pins in the same pattern as on JP2. Pin 1 on LCD connects to pin 1 on JP2 etc.

This is the pin assignment of the LCD.

Pin 01 - gnd
Pin 02 - 5volts
Pin 03 - gnd (contrast pin, ground for highest contrast)
Pin 04 - RS (register select) <-------- A9
Pin 05 - R/W (read/write) <------------ A8
Pin 06 - /enable <--------------------- 68hc11.PortA.4
Pin 07 - db0 (data bus)
Pin 08 - db1
Pin 09 - db2
Pin 10 - db3
Pin 11 - db4
Pin 12 - db5
Pin 13 - db6
Pin 14 - db7
