30 Corrected error which slows down handling of user commands (the thread
executing the user command used wait_event_timeout instead of
wait_event_timeout_interruptiple).

Added demo program which tests time of execution of the user's
command.
wzab 3429d 00h /fade_ether_protocol/trunk/
29 Fixed two mistakes in mutex management (mutex not unlocked, when function leaved after an error)
Fixed dead URL in comments.
wzab 3434d 01h /fade_ether_protocol/trunk/
28 Correction of an obvious mistake in the Linux driver, which lead to deadlock
when two applications (or two threads) tried to open the same FADE device.
wzab 3437d 23h /fade_ether_protocol/trunk/
27 Added file fade_one_channel, allowing to implement multiple FADE instances in a single FPGA. wzab 3452d 08h /fade_ether_protocol/trunk/
26 Corrected small bug in CRC update in eth_sender8,vhd
Added counter of retransmitted packets.
Some minor changes in delay update parameters.
wzab 3486d 18h /fade_ether_protocol/trunk/
25 Modified the Tcl script for KC705 so, that it automatically runs synthesis, implementation and generates bitstream. wzab 3510d 09h /fade_ether_protocol/trunk/
24 Added build scripts for KC705 (somehow they got omitted in version 22) wzab 3510d 21h /fade_ether_protocol/trunk/
23 Added script allowing for batch compilation of FADE 10G for Atlys.
Just run build_proj_atlys.sh

Removed compilation of receiver2.c (which has been deleted) in the Makefile.
Slightly changed order of operation in the receiver2t.c
wzab 3510d 22h /fade_ether_protocol/trunk/
22 Sources reorganized so, that each ".xci" is in a separate directory.
Added script for rebuilding of Vivado project for KC705.
Just run the build_proj_kc705 script, and the project
will be created as kc705_10g3.xpr in the kc705_10g3 drirectory.
You can open it later on in Vivado 2014.3 and build the bitstream.
wzab 3510d 23h /fade_ether_protocol/trunk/
21 Changed the top entity for KC705, so that the FADE core is correctly reset
by the RESETMAC command.
Changed sending of the FCMD_RESET command form driver to the FPGA (as it
is not confirmed - the reinitialized core can't confirm the command).
Changed the receiver2t demo program so that it sends RESETMAC three times
before the transmission is started.

In the future, probably there should be a STATUS ioctl, which would
verify, that the core has been reset by RESETMAC.
Then the program should send RESETMAC, and afterwards read the STATUS,
verifying, that RESETMAC arrived FPGA. If not it should repeat the
above procedure (not implemented yet).

20 Cured problem with dta_eod missed, when buffer was full at the moment
when dta_eod was asserted.
It caused the client program to hang, as no end of data was transmitted
and no new data arrived...
wzab 3511d 21h /fade_ether_protocol/trunk/
19 The send_cmd function protected to attempt to call it if the Ethernet device was not
claimed before (previously it caused a problem with NULL pointer dereference
in the ioctl in kernel code).

Moved the Ethernet device name to a macro, so it is easier to modify it, when
someone tests in different machines (e.g. the 10Gb/s NIC for tests with
KC705 is p4p1, while 1Gb/s NIC for tests with Atlys is eth0)
wzab 3511d 22h /fade_ether_protocol/trunk/
18 Changed handling of commands so, that all commands are now confirmed - even start and stop
(which previously were not confirmed - successful reception of start was confirmed
by sending of data packets (what if there was no data at the moment?), successful
reception of stop was confirmed by end of data stream).
Added also flushing of data stream after reception of stop command.
The receiver2t.c implements suggested method of communication with the FADE driver.
One thread is responsible for reception and processing of data, while another thread
is responsible for sending of control commands.
wzab 3512d 18h /fade_ether_protocol/trunk/
17 Corrected mutex management in ioctl. wzab 3518d 22h /fade_ether_protocol/trunk/
16 Introduced inline functions simplifying reading and writing of packets' contents. wzab 3518d 23h /fade_ether_protocol/trunk/
15 The previous experimental implemenation for 10Gb/s links has been replaced with the
new, rewritten implementation, which uses sequential numbering of packets instaed
of "sets of packets". This allowed to simplify the driver, and improve its performance.
Additionally a possibility to send user defined commands to the FPGA was added.
wzab 3526d 21h /fade_ether_protocol/trunk/
14 Removed small mistake causing a combinatorial loop. wzab 3531d 22h /fade_ether_protocol/trunk/
13 Small correction in the kernel driver wzab 3534d 04h /fade_ether_protocol/trunk/
12 Added experimental version of my protocol, working with the 10Gb/s
link on the KC705 board.
The design has been initially tested, and is working, but it still
needs some improvments.
Please note, that this version uses the "jumbo" frames,
with 8192 bytes of user data in each packet (plus header).
Therefore it was necessary to make some changes in the kernel
driver.
wzab 3541d 00h /fade_ether_protocol/trunk/
11 Corrected small bug in eth_sender8 (which in fact should only
generate a compiler warning, as the resulting bit vector
was anyway correctly truncated...)
wzab 3697d 22h /fade_ether_protocol/trunk/
10 Updated test client program - receiver2.c

Added possibility to activate only selected slave in the command line.
Currently program services up to three slaves: 0, 1 and 2
To activate a slave, add its number as a program argument in the command line
(order doesn't matter).
wzab 3997d 20h /fade_ether_protocol/trunk/
9 Corrected serious bug in acknowledged packed number calculations, which lead to transmission
errors in high speed CPUs.
wzab 3998d 20h /fade_ether_protocol/trunk/
8 Adjusted parameters of the NCA (network congestion avoidance) alogorithm
to obtain higher throughput.
wzab 4002d 21h /fade_ether_protocol/trunk/
7 Shortened synchronization path for tx_start signal in the eth_sender blocks wzab 4003d 01h /fade_ether_protocol/trunk/
6 Further adjusted IFG lengths wzab 4003d 07h /fade_ether_protocol/trunk/
5 Decreased length of the intraframe gaps (IFG)
In 100Mb/s version - to 100bits (25 nibbles)
In 1Gb/s version - to 104bits (13 bytes)
wzab 4003d 22h /fade_ether_protocol/trunk/
4 Added lacking files PCK_CRC32_D4.vhd and PCK_CRC32_D8.vhd wzab 4030d 06h /fade_ether_protocol/trunk/
3 Added new version of the FPGA firmware, which does not rely on the Ethernet MAC core.
Now both versions are available.
The version with Ethernet MAC is in directory FPGA_with_MAC.
The version which handles directly Ethernet PHY is in directory FPGA_no_MAC
wzab 4030d 06h /fade_ether_protocol/trunk/
2 Initial submission of the implementation of the "fade" protocol. wzab 4187d 00h /fade_ether_protocol/trunk/
1 The project and the structure was created root 4187d 03h /fade_ether_protocol/trunk/
