Installation on Linux Host

...

The SDK comes in four flavors, one for each of the "architectures".  These flavors arecontains support for 3 platforms:

1. arm-rtems-rceCA9  –   rceCA9 – target specific code for RTEMS
2. arm-linux-rceCA9  –  rceCA9 – target specific code for ArchLinux
3. i86-linux-32  –  Host tools for 32-bit linuxi86-linux-64  –  64 – Host tools for 64-bit linux

To retrieve the SDK from SLAC, execute the following command on your host:

Code Block
language none
gitwget clone http://www.slac.stanford.edu/projects/CTK/SDK/<architecture>.gitrce-sdk-<tag>.tar.gz <install_path> tar -xzf rce-sdk-<tag>.tar.gz <install_path>

This will place the most recent current tag of the SDK into <install_path>

Noteinfo
If you wish a different tag, you may cd to <install_path> and type "git tag" to list the tags, then "git checkout <tagname>" to switch to that tag.  You probably want the default.

Then finalize the installation by executing:

Code Block
<install_path>/tools/install-sdk.sh

Installation on the Target

We use tools in the host linux SDK to install the target RTEMS SDK.  You will need the following available:

1. the i86-linux SDK appropriate to your host machine
2. the arm-rtems-rceCA9 SDK
3. The location of your target in "shelf/slot/bay/rce" space (like "katahdin/12/0/2")

Package the RTEMS sdk into a tarball like so:

<install_i86_linux_SDK_path>/tools/packageSDK <install_RTEMS_SDK_path> ~/foo.tar

Then, install the SDK onto your target at <location> with:

<install_i86_linux_SDK_path>/tools/updateRCE <location> ~/foo.tar

 This script logs its progress, so you can see where it is.

Note: prior to V0.4.0, the updateRCE command had the argument order <tarball> <location>.
