OpenCN detailed documentation

@jmi
Actually problem was with default terminal of Kubuntu which disaplayed only 8 lines and previous lines got depleted.

I used another terminal Xterm and the cat command worked.

Thanks

Hi Nadim,

Thanks for sharing the file. Unfortunately (if I can say) it seems correct. I’ve no idea why you had an error at the boot. I’ve to debug (I will try to do it asap).

Anyway, you still can play with OpenCN without it.

Regarding the terminal display issue, the cmd resize usually restore the print area.

J-P

NRK · August 15, 2023, 4:11pm

No Problem @jmi , Thanks
You can debug as per your time.

In the meantime I will try below tasks:

I will redo the whole procedure on Ubuntu version because thats what i use for other work also. I will redo and then study and try the document in detail. I will also check if this same problem occurs again.
I will also try to build and run on raspberrypi4 target
I will comeback with the results

Can you create a seperate branch from where I can checkout and try my handson and update things?

My gitlab userid is :15429624
I am new to gitlab but i can follow along its documentation.

jmi · August 16, 2023, 7:34am

Hi Nadim,

I will add you as developer in the OpenCN repo. Regarding the branches and issue, we already have the issue #113. This issue, and its related branch, was created to follow documentation update which was not related to new features/dev.

The branch has to be aligned with the current master

You can use this issue/branch if it is ok for you

Have a nice day
J-P

jmi · August 16, 2023, 7:34am

I need you gitlab username. I cannot add you using the userid

NRK · August 16, 2023, 8:47am

My username is nadim4114

jmi · August 16, 2023, 11:16am

Done - you should receive an invitation

NRK · August 17, 2023, 7:02am

Thanks for adding me.
I received an invitation.

I am using below branch to checkout a copy. Is this correct if you can confirm.

nadim@nadim-pc:~/opencn$ git checkout origin/113-documentation-update
M agency/usr/matlab
HEAD is now at dc31915f1e [doc] deployment: add info to install on PC internal disk

jmi · August 17, 2023, 7:19am

Yes, it is the correct branch. But I has to be aligned with the current state of master branch.

J-P

NRK · August 17, 2023, 11:35am

I will follow this procedure everytime for documentation update. 13. Development flow — OpenCN 2021.2.0 documentation
Just a quick silly question.
The script mentioned in below userguide creates document from the updated files present in /home/nadim/opencn/doc/src ?
8. User guide — OpenCN 2021.2.0 documentation
I have made my first commit and push to gitlab repository for testing purpose. Pls confirm if change is reflected and everything is okay?

jmi · August 18, 2023, 7:40am

Hi Nadim,

Yes this doc seems correct.
This script will generate the documentation in html (or pdf) or the src folder. All is performed locally.
I’ll look at the push in detail lately (no time right now), but you did not follow the doc at 1 (see below).

Doc update flow
Here is a summary of the process to update the documentation.

N.B: This flow is valid only for activities on the doc only - no code source update !
N.B2: In case of the integration of a new feature, a new branch/issue has to be created and the doc has to be integrated in this branch as well.

First the 113 branch has to be align with the master branch. It is important ! It will avoid many conflict during the merge / alignment.

NRK · August 18, 2023, 11:36am

" First the 113 branch has to be align with the master branch."

To align 113 branch to master, do you mean to create a merge request of branch 113?

Since my background is new to these kind of development tools, I am asking a lot of questions. Sorry for that.

jmi · August 18, 2023, 11:54am

No, it consists in rebasing the 113 branch on top of master branch.

NRK · August 18, 2023, 12:09pm

$ git fetch --all
$ git checkout 113-documentation-update
$ git rebase origin/master

// Update the documentation and push the modification

$ git push --force

This is what is used as per the document.

Any thing to add or modify in these steps, please suggest.

Or if the step is okay then i go ahead and build and run openCN and start learning and documenting.

jmi · August 18, 2023, 1:04pm

Yes it is correct !

it is what you have done ? sorry, It means I’ve looked at the commit to quickly !

Have a nice day
J-P

NRK · August 18, 2023, 2:25pm

No issues @jmi,

I am taking diligent steps just to make sure I do not mess up with the system.
I will now follow the same steps to update the document. I will not hesitate to ask you guys again.

Regards
NRK

jmi · August 18, 2023, 2:38pm

Thanks for your help and don’t hesitate to ask questions !

I am trying hal commands in qemu. I have taken up this topic to try things and see where document can be corrected
some commands seem to return nothing or maybe I am doing wrong.

I tried below commands from the sample commands given in userguide.

opencn ~ # ./halcmd load loopback cfg=fsub
hal_systemv: waiting for child ./loopback
hal_connect returned with ret = 0
hal_systemv: OK, we can go ahead…

opencn ~ # ./halcmd load threads name1=loopback_thread period1=20000
hal_systemv: waiting for child ./threads
OpenCN: Threads component starting…
threads_connect returned with ret = 0
hal_systemv: OK, we can go ahead…

opencn ~ # ./halcmd addf loopback.0 loopback_thread
opencn ~ # ./halcmd show pin
opencn ~ # ./halcmd show pin loopback
opencn ~ # ./halcmd setp loopback.0.f_in.0 12.3
opencn ~ # ./halcmd show pin loopback
opencn ~ # ./halcmd start
opencn ~ # ./halcmd show pin
opencn ~ # ./halcmd show comp
opencn ~ # ./halcmd show sig
opencn ~ # ./halcmd show param
opencn ~ # ./halcmd show thread
opencn ~ # ./halcmd show

Can anyone suggest whether I am doing something wrong or the commands dont work in qemu?

jmi · August 23, 2023, 6:39am

Hi Nadim,

No idea right now on what is going on. halcmd is working - we are using it most of the time…

Can you try halcmd getp loopback.0.f_in.0 command ?

J-P

NRK · August 23, 2023, 10:13am

I followed the procedure shown in user guide.

Only changes are

I am running x86-qemu
I have commented below lines as suggested by you

Comment all lines in agency/rootfs/board/common/rootfs_overlay/root/start_opencn.sh

Other all things i have followed same.
