3) After you execute these files, make sure the following files are
located in /opt/mv_pro_4.0 (or in the /mv_pro_4.0 subdirectory of the
directory you chose in place of the default):
■
mvltools4.0-no-target.tar.gz
■
mvl4.0-target_path.tar.gz
■
DaVinciLSP#.#.#.tar.gz
4) Go to the location where you will unpack the tar files. For example:
host $ cd /opt/mv_pro_4.0
5) Unpack the tar files (as root) by using the following commands:
host $ tar zxf mvltools4.0-no-target.tar.gz
host $ tar zxf mvl4.0-target_path.tar.gz
host $
tar zxf DaVinciLSP#.#.#.tar.gz
This creates the MontaVista directory structure under the
/opt/mv_pro_4.0/montavista/ directory.
4.3.2 Installing the DVEVM Software
The DVEVM software includes Codec Engine components, DSP/BIOS
Link, sample data files, xDAIS and xDM header files, and a contiguous
memory allocator for Linux (CMEM).
❏
Codec Engine provides a framework for creating and interacting with
A/V codecs running on the DSP via a reflection of their xDM
interfaces on the ARM through a Linux C-callable API.
❏
DSP/BIOS Link provides a GPP/DSP interface utilized by the Codec
Engine to control and communicate with the DSP from Linux.
To install the DVEVM software using the Linux installer, follow these
steps:
1) Log in using a user account . In the following steps, we refer to the
home user directory as "~".
2) Install the software from the DVEVM CD. For example:
host $ cd /tmp
host $ ./dvevm_setuplinux_1_00_00_bb.bin
3) When you are prompted, do not use the default installation location.
Instead, install the software in the home directory for the account you
are using.
For example, if your home directory is /home/useracct, enter that in
the installation location dialog. The DVEVM software would then be
