Moxa IA240-T-LX [71/92] Chapter 5 development tool chains

Chapter 5 Development Tool Chains

This chapter describes how to install a tool chain in the host computer that you use to develop your

applications. In addition, the process of performing cross-platform development and debugging are

also introduced. For clarity, the IA240/241 embedded computer is called a target computer.

The following functions are covered in this chapter:

 Linux Tool Chain

Next use the bin command to set the transfer mode to binary and the put command to initiate the file transfer 24
Note if you get an error message at this point it could be because you neglected to put tcps2 c and tcpsp c in the same directory the example makefile we provide is set up to compile both tcps2 and tcpsp into the same project makefile alternatively you could modify the makefile to suit your particular requirements 24
Tcps2 debug an arm platform gdb debug server execution file see chapter 5 for details about the gdb debug tool 24
Tcps2 release an arm platform execution file created specifically to run on the ia240 241 24

Since different flash disks have different sizes it s a good idea to check the size of your flash disk before upgrading the firmware or before using the disk to store your application and data files use the 30
The following instructions give the steps required to save the firmware file to the ia240 241 s ram disk and how to upgrade the firmware 30
Type the following commands to enable the ram disk 30
Type the following commands to use the ia240 241 s built in ftp client to transfer the firmware file ia240 x x x frm or ia241 x x x frm from the pc to the ia240 241 30

Loading factory defaults 31
Next use the upfirm command to upgrade the kernel and root file system 31
The upfirm utility will reboot your target after the upgrade is ok 31
To load the the factory default settings you must press the reset to default button for more than 5 seconds all files in the home etc directories will be destroyed note that while pressing the reset to default button the ready led will blink once every second for the first 5 seconds the ready led will turn off after 5 seconds and the factory defaults will be loaded 31
Enabling and disabling daemons 32
Ia240 241 linux user s manual managing embedded linux 32
Next use vi to open your application program we use the example program tcps2 release and put it to run in the background 32
Snmpd snmp agent daemon telnetd telnet server client daemon inetd internet daemons ftpd ftp server client daemon sshd secure shell server daemon httpd apache www server daemon 32
The following daemons are enabled when the ia240 241 boots up for the first time 32
To run a private daemon you can edit the file rc local as follows 32
Type the command ps ef to list all processes currently running 32
And save to 33
As an example 33
Edit a shell script to execute 33
Ia240 241 linux user s manual managing embedded linux 33
In this section we outline the steps you should take to set the linux run level and execute requests use the following command to enable or disable settings 33
Setting the run level 33
Sxxrunfile stands for s start the run file while linux boots up xx a number between 00 99 smaller numbers have a higher priority runfile the file name 33
The enabled daemons will be available after you reboot the system 33
Adjusting the system time 34
Setting the time manually 34
Example shell script to update the system time periodically 35
How to run the shell script automatically when the kernel boots up 35
Ia240 241 linux user s manual managing embedded linux 35
In this subsection we show how to use a shell script to update the time automatically 35
Note before using the ntp client utility check your ip and dns settings to make sure that an internet connection is available refer to chapter 2 for instructions on how to configure the ethernet interface and see chapter 4 for dns setting information 35
Ntp client 35
Save the shell script using any file name e g 35
The ia240 241 has a built in ntp network time protocol client that is used to initialize a time request to a remote ntp server us 35
To update the system time 35

Telnet ftp 38
Web service apache 39
Ia240 241 linux user s manual managing communication 41
Install php for apache web server 41
Note the cgi function is enabled by default if you want to disable the function modify the file etc apache conf httpd conf when you develop your own cgi application make sure your cgi file is executable 41
Step 1 check that you have enough free space 41
Step 2 type upramdisk to get the free space ram disk to save the package 41
This embedded computer supports the php option however since the php file is 3 mb it is not installed by default to install it yourself first make sure there is enough free space at least 3 mb on your embedded flash rom 41
To check that the dev mtdblock3 free space is greater than 3 mb 41
Ia240 241 linux user s manual managing communication 42
Step 3 download the php package from the cd rom you can find the package in cd rom target php php tar gz 42
Step 4 utar the package to do this type the command tar xvzf php tar gz 42
Step 5 run install sh and select to install php 42
Iptables 43
Observe and erase chain rules 46
Append or delete rules 47
Define policy for chain rules 47

Ia240 241 linux user s manual managing communication 49
In most real world situations you will want to use a simple shell script to enable nat when the ia240 241 boots up the following script is an example 49
Modem ppp access is almost identical to connecting directly to a network through the ia240 241 s ethernet port since ppp is a peer to peer system the ia240 241 can also use ppp to link two networks or a local network to the internet to create a wide area network wan 49
Note click on the following links for more information about ppp http tldp org howto ppp howto index html http axion physics ubc ca ppp linux html 49
Ppp point to point protocol is used to run ip internet protocol and other network protocols over a serial link ppp can be used for direct serial connections using a null modem cable over a telnet link and links established using a modem over a telephone line 49
The pppd daemon is used to connect to a ppp server from a linux system for detailed the pppd daemon is used to connect to a ppp server from a linux system for detailed information about pppd see the man page 49

The other has some error to get error code from errno 79
User application example 79
When you kill the application with 9 or kill without option or ctrl c the kernel will change to auto ack the swatchdog 79
When your application enables the swatchdog and does not ack your application may have a logical error or your application has made a core dump the kernel will not change to auto ack this can cause a serious problem causing your system to reboot again and again 79
