15:59 | se6ast1an | Meeting time!
| |
16:00 | se6ast1an | please message me now if you want to report!
| |
16:00 | se6ast1an | apoorva_arora: is first in line, please go ahead
| |
16:01 | Bertl | first let me say, welcome everyone to the second phase/period of GSoC 2020 \o/
| |
16:03 | apoorva_arora | Thank you, Last week i submitted the first part of the project. This included PHY layer as well as packet layeer both master slave with a demonstration testbench simulation for SPI Master interface on the slave device. This week i will start my first hardware implementation. Plan will be to test basic data transmission using bidirectional PHY with ZYNQ being master and machxo2 being slave device.
| |
16:03 | apoorva_arora | this is all from my side :)
| |
16:05 | se6ast1an | anything to share/show from your first part of the project?
| |
16:06 | apoorva_arora | yes, this is the link to the report: https://github.com/Apoorva-ar/GSOC_2020/blob/master/GSOC_Apoorva_phase1_Report.pdf
| |
16:07 | apoorva_arora | the report describes design, construction as well as validation of the code.
| |
16:08 | se6ast1an | thanks!
| |
16:08 | se6ast1an | metal_dent[m]: you are next
| |
16:08 | metal_dent[m] | hi!
| |
16:09 | metal_dent[m] | last week was the evaluation period so i cleaned up my code, added the copyrights, readme and prepared the report for phase I
| |
16:09 | metal_dent[m] | the report is here -> https://drive.google.com/file/d/1R7jS6MCCnrwf0FPzcKP9ViRY3sHxg8Za/view?usp=sharing
| |
16:09 | metal_dent[m] | right now i'm working on the python script as to make the communication work between host and remote, i need to send the commands to the remote which is done using pyserial
| |
16:10 | metal_dent[m] | but the write process is not working on the zbox (thought it's working perfectly on the virtual serial ports), so i'm debugging the code and hopefully it'll be done in a couple of days (max) so that the writing of the firmware can be done
| |
16:10 | metal_dent[m] | that's it from my side!
| |
16:11 | se6ast1an | many thanks
| |
16:11 | se6ast1an | bluez_[m]: is next in line
| |
16:11 | bluez_[m] | tx, hi everyone!
| |
16:12 | bluez_[m] | so last week I too finalized and submitted the code and report for evaluation
| |
16:12 | bluez_[m] | report -> https://drive.google.com/file/d/1nBbAbasn-awyiGloveNo6Ot1sKVymnKA/view?usp=sharing
| |
16:12 | bluez_[m] | the driver can successfully upload a bitstream into MachXO2
| |
16:13 | bluez_[m] | i was then working on a sysfs entry to get hash of the current image
| |
16:14 | bluez_[m] | it took me sometime to find a good updated implementation for reference... i finally found it and am almost done with the implementation
| |
16:14 | bluez_[m] | will test and push by today
| |
16:14 | Bertl | sounds good!
| |
16:15 | bluez_[m] | this week I will finish up other extra stuff that i mentioned in the report.... and then start studying about OpenOCD
| |
16:15 | bluez_[m] | thats all from my side!
| |
16:15 | bluez_[m] | <Bertl "sounds good!"> thanks :)
| |
16:16 | se6ast1an | thanks
| |
16:17 | se6ast1an | bluez_[m] metal_dent[m] apoorva_arora, I with phase I mastered I wuld love to add your projects to our wiki
| |
16:17 | se6ast1an | would you be so kind and do so on https://wiki.apertus.org/index.php/GSoC_Projects
| |
16:17 | se6ast1an | I just added the 2020 header
| |
16:19 | metal_dent[m] | se6ast1an: sure :)
| |
16:20 | bluez_[m] | sure but we should add there after the project completes or now?
| |
16:20 | Bertl | megora: preetimenghwani[: what about your first evaluation results?
| |
16:21 | se6ast1an | <bluez_[m]> sure but we should add there after the project completes or now? <- please add it already now
| |
16:22 | bluez_[m] | se6ast1an: ah, okay
| |
16:23 | se6ast1an | preetimenghwani[: your turn
| |
16:23 | preetimenghwani[ | Hello Everyone!
| |
16:24 | preetimenghwani[ | So I spent last week preparing the report and modifying the code as suggested by bertl, So now the test framework is ready.
| |
16:24 | preetimenghwani[ | here is the link to the report -> https://drive.google.com/file/d/1IgMgVa1qXTgKUCgcIUN8ucDhVH27PYqq/view?usp=sharing
| |
16:25 | preetimenghwani[ | Currently focussing on deciding the architecture of the new remapper.
| |
16:25 | preetimenghwani[ | Thats it from my side!
| |
16:26 | se6ast1an | many thanks!
| |
16:26 | se6ast1an | megora: please go ahead
| |
16:27 | megora | Hello everyone!
| |
16:28 | megora | About a week ago I've found that the eMMC model project I was using to make a testbench for mu own project also includes the emmc host.
| |
16:29 | megora | This host module isn't fully meeting the emmc plugin requirements cause it was made for the older protocol version, but it looks like a good basement
| |
16:31 | megora | So I decided to use this one as a base to test host - emmc communication at lower speeds, and to try upgrading it in the case of successful tests.
| |
16:31 | Bertl | looking forward to the hardware tests!
| |
16:33 | se6ast1an | anything else megora?
| |
16:33 | megora | For now I'm creating module to feed the host with random data. The next steps would be adding telemetry (possibly, ILA), creating bitstream, and trying to program the FPGA
| |
16:34 | megora | That's all.
| |
16:34 | RexOrCine | At GSOC students: We'd like to do a wrap-up article like this for GSOC 2020 - https://www.apertus.org/google-summer-of-code-wrap-article-august-2018 ... So a small summary and relevant image would be needed at the end of the term. Thanks.
| |
16:35 | se6ast1an | good point rex
| |
16:35 | se6ast1an | gsoc students please already start collecting images, whatever is interesting, the reports I saw so far already contained some, great
| |
16:36 | se6ast1an | megora & preetimenghwani[ please also add your project to https://wiki.apertus.org/index.php/GSoC_Projects
| |
16:36 | se6ast1an | you can use a project from last year as template
| |
16:36 | se6ast1an | like https://wiki.apertus.org/index.php/USB_3.0_Plugin_Module_Gearwork
| |
16:36 | metal_dent[m] | > At GSOC students: We'd like to do a wrap-up article like this for GSOC 2020 - https://www.apertus.org/google-summer-of-code-wrap-article-august-2018 ... So a small summary and relevant image would be needed at the end of the term. Thanks.
| |
16:36 | metal_dent[m] | we all need to write individual articles like this, right?
| |
16:37 | se6ast1an | creating a new wiki page simply works by creating the linke entry first and then clicking it
| |
16:37 | se6ast1an | you need a wiki account for that, so if you dont have one yet, create one
| |
16:37 | se6ast1an | if anything is not clear or not working feel free to contact me on irc via email
| |
16:37 | RexOrCine | metal_dent[m]: No no. That article details all four students from 2018. We regrettably didn't do an article like this for 2019. So just a short paragraph and image and we'll build the article.
| |
16:38 | se6ast1an | thank you gsoc students, well done, welcome to phase II :D
| |
16:38 | metal_dent[m] | RexOrCine: okay, thanks! we'll keep this in mind :)
| |
16:39 | se6ast1an | BAndiT1983: please share your progress report
| |
16:39 | BAndiT1983 | and phase II will be harder
| |
16:39 | megora | This article would be at the end of the whole GSoC term?
| |
16:39 | BAndiT1983 | hi everyone
| |
16:39 | megora | *would be done
| |
16:39 | Bertl | yes, the article will likely happen after GSoC 2020 is over
| |
16:40 | megora | Got it.
| |
16:40 | BAndiT1983 | just a short update from me, as i was busy with other things besides apertus in the last weeks, but my main tasks were gsoc mentoring and PCB panelisation script
| |
16:41 | BAndiT1983 | we've started to create a mixed panel, which will contain main PCBs for a camera, and this mixed subpanels will be merged into one big panel
| |
16:42 | BAndiT1983 | latest obstacle is some weird format of the drill positions, but it's more about settings while merging probably
| |
16:42 | BAndiT1983 | that's it from me for now
| |
16:44 | Bertl | great work! :)
| |
16:45 | se6ast1an | many thanks!
| |
16:46 | se6ast1an | very quick update from me: as I am still a cat nurse currently I didnt get as much done as I hoped I would unfortunately
| |
16:46 | se6ast1an | but I helped a bit with the PCB panelization BAndiT1983 mentioned
| |
16:46 | se6ast1an | and I plan to still work on the FW 2.0 usage documentation on the wiki soon
| |
16:47 | se6ast1an | Bertl: your turn
| |
16:47 | Bertl | thanks!
| |
16:48 | Bertl | well, I'm officially on vacation, but that usually doesn't keep me from working on Axiom related stuff ...
| |
16:48 | Bertl | not very suprisingly, most of last week was spent on first evaluation and getting everything together regarding GSoC 2020
| |
16:49 | Bertl | besides that, I also worked on the Kuffner observatory setup and everything there seems to be running smoothly now
| |
16:50 | Bertl | starting with today we also have a new trainee (from the observatory) working on Axiom related stuff
| |
16:51 | Bertl | his work will be mainly focused on getting the IMU center solder on up and running
| |
16:51 | Bertl | https://wiki.apertus.org/index.php/Beta_CSO
| |
16:52 | Bertl | so I prepared some hardware for him to test with
| |
16:53 | Bertl | the IMU CSO features accelerometer, magnetometer, barometer and gyroscope (all MEMs)
| |
16:53 | Bertl | and we hope that in the future, it will be able to provide telemetry information as metadata for recording and other applications
| |
16:54 | Bertl | other than that, some rework but nothing spectacular
| |
16:54 | Bertl | that's it from my side for this week!
| |
16:55 | se6ast1an | the trainee will mostly work on the software side of the CSO correct?
| |
16:55 | Bertl | yes, the hardware was done in 2017 :)
| |
16:55 | se6ast1an | or gateware if required (IIRC he wants to work on FPGA related stuff)?
| |
16:56 | se6ast1an | great, many thanks
| |
16:56 | Bertl | the CSO is connected to the routing fabrics
| |
16:56 | se6ast1an | anyone else who wants to share/discuss/report about anything?
| |
16:56 | Bertl | so gateware for the routing FPGAs (MachXO2) is required
| |
16:56 | se6ast1an | right
| |
16:56 | RexOrCine | Excellent. Have we met him before?
| |
16:57 | RexOrCine | Cos i remember there was a guy there once.
| |
16:58 | Bertl | nope, brand new guy
| |
16:59 | se6ast1an | there are two astronomy students which you might remember, but they are not software/hardware developers
| |
16:59 | se6ast1an | MEETING concluded, many thanks everyone!
| |
17:00 | Bertl | thank you!
