kernel: add lock command · 7ba50cea

Federico Vaga authored Oct 13, 2017

I do not think that it is going to be really useful.
I added this, so that if the user unlocks the programming it can locks it back
immediately without re-programming the FPGA.

kernel: delay between unlocking bytes · dc753d6c

Federico Vaga authored Oct 13, 2017

It happened that the boot-loader did not get correctly the reset
sequence. A Delay between the characters apparently it helps.

kernel: do not remove device · 5f2bd7f5

Federico Vaga authored Oct 13, 2017

Removing the device instance is wrong. The SVEC module has a little
System FPGA where the Application FPGA programmer lives.
The System FPGA is the one that we drive with the SVEC driver
when we program the Application FPGA. So, there is no need to
destroy the SVEC device instance.

kernel: programming the FPGA · c10ce6b6

Federico Vaga authored Oct 06, 2017

It programs the application FPGA using a dedicated char device.
On open() it resets the FPGA
On write() it copies the bitstream on the FPGA
On close() it copies the last word[1] on the bitstream and it enables
the application FPGA

In order to be able to program the application FPGA the user must unlock
the flashing procedure by writing 'unlock' in the `lock` sysfs attribute

[1] This hack is necessary does to an FPGA programmer limitation
