Hi,
Does dragonboard 820c have support for Hexagon DSP programming as like dragonboard 410c mentioned here(https://github.com/96boards/documentation/wiki/dragonboard-Hexagon-DSP)?
I do see some patches in integration-linux-qcomlt for db820c.
Thanks,
Vijai Kumar K
yes, the same drivers are tested on several Qualcomm platforms, including on DB820c. we should review this wiki page, and make sure it has up-to-date instructions.
Thanks @anon91830841 for the confirmation. I donot see the fastrpc nodes or fastrpc driver for DB820c in the integration tree though. I have cherry-picked the fastrpc drivers and device nodes and I am stuck where in the driver crashes. Can someone update the wiki to have the latest instructions for DB820c?
Best,
Vijai Kumar K
Sorry for the confusion, I see the drivers in Integration tree(integration-linux-qcomlt). Silly of me. I am testing it out. Will update on the progress.
I was able to follow the procedure. I just had to enable CONFIG_QCOM_FASTRPC in defconfig. The only thing I was missing is that firmware files mentioned there. I believe those are required only for 410c and not 820c. 820c adsp pil binaries are there in /lib/firmware. The adsp is up and I get the below message.
[ 26.987904] remoteproc remoteproc0: remote processor adsp-pil is now up
While running the getserial utility, the board reboots and goes to ramdump? @anon91830841 Is there any specific version of firmware to use for 820c?
Thanks,
Vijai Kumar K
Hi Vijai,
Sorry for the delayed reply.
For the crash, can you check if you have CONFIG_QCOM_APR=y set in your kernel config ? I don’t know why for now and need to investigate but I have the same crash if APR is not enabled in my config.
Regarding the firmware, it is possible that the version you have doesn’t have adsp support. Can you please share the output of ‘md5sum /lib/firmware/adsp*’ ?
Regards,
Thierry
Hi @thierryE,
Thank you for following up. I have set CONFIG_QCOM_APR=y and rebuilt the kernel. Now it doesn’t crash however getserial never returns. Below is the md5sums. Can you also share your md5sums? With that, I could try to see if I have the same firmware as you do from Qualcomm. Any release numbers would also help.

Hi @vj-kumar,
So yes, we are using a different firmware that comes from an Android rootfs provided by Qualcomm.

Hi Thierry,
I’m interested in testing hexagon SDK too.
I checked which firmware I have on my Android 8.1 rootfs and that’s the same
than Linaro is providing in r01700 firmware release.
Does Linaro plan to do a new firmware release with Qualcomm so that we can test hexagon SDK ?
Or we have to contact Qualcomm, or board supplier to get them ?
Best regards,
Julien
Hi Julien,
Sorry but there is no plan for now to release the non-public firmware we are using.
Please contact Qualcomm or your board vendor to obtain an aDSP firmware that supports FastRPC.
Regards,
Thierry
If you are aware of a version number for these firmwares please tell us.
It will make my request to the board vendor more accurate.
Thanks,
Julien
Finally I managed to get FastRPC to work on db820c with the public firmware release.
I’ll update the Wiki page with instructions for the db820c.
Regards,
Thierry
I’ve updated the Wiki for db820c support.
The main changes are:
Don’t hesitate to contact me if you have any question.

Thierry
Thanks a lot @thierryE, I was able to follow the procedure and run the matrix multiplication example on my 820c dragonboard.
Thans a lot thierryE,
I will give a check to this wiki page.
Thanks for this great support, talking about fancy feature like dsp and hexagon SDK,
reveals how much progress have been done in one year on s820.
Kudos to linaro team.
Hello,
I also succeeded in running matrix multiplication example on db820c and some Hexagon SDK examples. However I am not able to run Hexagon_nn example.
I get the following error :
src/lib/fastrpc_apps_user.c:871:adsp dlopen error: hexagon_nn undefined PLT symbol #39 HAP_mem_set_grow_size in libhexagon_nn_skel.so
Did you tried running hexagon_nn examples on Linux ?
Thank you for the wiki update.
Regards.
Hi @thierryE,
I have followed all of these steps & I’ve faced the error as:
./matrix_multi 0 3
usage: ./matrix_multi <1/0 run locally>
Can you please suggest what went wrong here… Thanks…
Hi all,
Update on my own query:
I got ./matrix_multi app working by placing all lib* files in one specific location & ldconfig
Worked without
export ADSP_LIBRARY_PATH=/home***
export LD_LIBRARY_PATH=/home****
Thanks…
Hi @ymj,
Please explain in detail about the location, so that it is helpful for others.
Best,
Vijai Kumar K
