Raw Blame History

--- Tue 2011-09-06 ------------------------------------------------------------
Running "loop": power-cycle, sleep 2 s, jtag-boot, sleep 70 seconds,
which is enough to boot into FN and render "The Tunnel" for a moment,
then power-cycle again (off-time is 5 s).
Note that the test loop is "open-loop" and will cycle also past any
problems. The first time a corrupt standby (or any other issue) is
observed may therefore be well after the actual event.
1: started around 11:53 (M1 configuration is original, without locking)
(around 500) visually checked boot process; standby was reached normally
--- Wed 2011-09-07 ------------------------------------------------------------
645: neocon stopped working (around 01:58)
666: detected neocon failure at run 666: restarted neocon; urjtag failed
this cycle; back to normal at 667
684: checked LEDs again (first time since ~500) and found that standby
may be failing. stopping test at 685 (around 02:50) for
investigation.
Downloaded the standby bitstream:
wget https://raw.github.com/milkymist/scripts/master/scripts/reflash_m1.sh
chmod 755 reflash_m1.sh
./reflash_m1.sh --read-flash
Found two corruptions in the standby bitstream:

CRC-checked the partitions:
git clone git://github.com/milkymist/milkymist
cd milkymist/tools/
gcc -Wall -I. -o flterm flterm.c

Reflashed the standby bitstream:

M1 enters standby normally again.
Running "loop2": power-cycle, sleep 2 s, jtag-boot, sleep 10 seconds,
which is enough to begin (but not finish) booting RTEMS, then
power-cycle again (off-time is 5 s).
1: started around 05:01. Observed until about 200-300 (06:00-06:30)
that standby was okay.
~730 (08:48): observed that standby didn't load anymore (note: due to
a bug in labsw, power is not turned on in about 5-10% of the cycles,
so the real cycle count should be around 650-700.)
Standby bitstream difference:

Reflashed standby and locked the NOR. Testing with loop2 again.

Recovered the FN partition and unlocked the NOR:
flashmem 0x920000 flickernoise.fbi noverify
unlockflash 0 55
New test series with script loop4. This differs from loop2 in that
it uses "pld reconfigure" to return to standby, instead of
power-cycling. If we still observe corruption with this test, then
a software problem would be to blame.
1 (09:11): started
2509 (19:33): standby looks good
All CRC checks pass. Verified that NOR was unlocked:
(load fjmem, etc.)
peek 0 # show old value
poke 0 0x40 0 0x0000 # Word Program
peek 0 # read back status (0x80 if okay, 0x92 if locked)
poke 0 0xff # Read Array (switch back to normal operation)
Took labsw offline to analyze occasional failure to switch. Failure
was difficult to reproduce. Also opened labsw to tighten a loose nut.
Afterwards (Friday run), labsw showed much fewer switch failures.

New test with script "loop5". This time, we only power cycle but don't
try to boot out of standby. The purpose of this test is to confirm that
NOR corruption does not occur when powering down while in standby.
1 (11:04): started
200 (11:28:): stopped to issue "unlockflash 0 105" to make sure all of
the NOR is unlocked, just in case
Also checked CRCs. All is well.
1 (11:31): started
2637 (16:53): stopped. standby looks good.
All partitions pass the CRC check.
Repeating loop2 to make sure the NOR corruption hasn't disappeared for
an unrelated reason. System is connected to oscilloscope monitoring the
M1 DC in voltage. This connection provides grounding of DC in.
1 (16:56): started
--- Sat 2011-09-10 ------------------------------------------------------------
2428 (04:57): standby still okay
2440 (05::01): disconnected oscilloscope
2463 (05:08): stopped test
All partitions pass the CRC check. Read back the standby partition and
also found no corruption in bitwise comparison. Furthermore, the unused
area showed the expected 0xffff pattern.
1 (05:14): restarted test, without oscilloscope.
2213 (16:11): standby still okay
All partitions pass the CRC check. Unused area of standby shows 0xffff.
Prepared new test (loop7): like loop2, but make a "false start" of
turning on both channels and immediately turn them off again, wait 16
seconds, and only then power up properly. This would roughly correspond
to labsw failing to turn on, as observed in the test runs in which NOR
corruption occurred.
1 (16:27): started loop7 test
... continuing through the night ...
--- Sun 2011-09-11 ------------------------------------------------------------
2001 (11:58): standby okay
All partitions pass the CRC check. Unused area of standby shows 0xffff.
Confirmed writability of NOR at address 0x80000 and at address 0.
Instructions used at address 0x80000:
jtag> peek 0x80000
URJ_BUS_READ(0x00080000) = 0xFFFF (65535)
jtag> poke 0x80000 0x40 0x80000 0xffee
jtag> peek 0x80000
URJ_BUS_READ(0x00080000) = 0x0080 (128)
jtag> poke 0 0xff
jtag> peek 0x80000
URJ_BUS_READ(0x00080000) = 0xFFEE (65518)
