I\'m trying to get a \'hello world\' type program running on my Beagleboard-xm rev. C, by calling a C puts function from assembly.

So far I\'ve been using t

    I've not enough repetation to comment.. But my answere to

    Works either way. Now the weird thing is that I can print individual characters with with uart_send('c') for example, but cannot print strings print_string(char *str){ while (*str != '\0') uart_send (*str++); } print_string("Test"); . Any thoughts on this?

    is:

    You write faster in the output buffer, as UART is able to send.. So you've to check, if the output buffer is empty, before you send a new character.

    I've done this in the code on my blog (http://hardwarefreak.wordpress.com/2011/08/30/some-experience-with-the-beagleboard-xm-part-2/)

    that should have worked for you. Here is some code I dug up from way back when, did not try it on a beagleboard tonight just made sure it compiled, it had worked at one time...

    startup.s:

        .code 32
    
    .globl _start
    _start:
    
        bl main
    hang: b hang
    
    .globl PUT32
    PUT32:
        str r1,[r0]
        bx lr
    
    .globl GET32
    GET32:
        ldr r0,[r0]
        bx lr
    

    hello.c :

    extern void PUT32 ( unsigned int, unsigned int );
    extern unsigned int GET32 ( unsigned int );
    void uart_send ( unsigned char x )
    {
        while((GET32(0x49020014)&0x20)==0x00) continue;
        PUT32(0x49020000,x);
    }
    void hexstring ( unsigned int d )
    {
        //unsigned int ra;
        unsigned int rb;
        unsigned int rc;
    
        rb=32;
        while(1)
        {
            rb-=4;
            rc=(d>>rb)&0xF;
            if(rc>9) rc+=0x37; else rc+=0x30;
            uart_send(rc);
            if(rb==0) break;
        }
        uart_send(0x0D);
        uart_send(0x0A);
    }
    int main ( void )
    {
        hexstring(0x12345678);
        return(0);
    }
    

    memmap (linker script):

    MEMORY
    {
        ram : ORIGIN = 0x82000000, LENGTH = 256K
    }
    
    SECTIONS
    {
        ROM : { startup.o } > ram
    }
    

    Makefile :

    CROSS_COMPILE = arm-none-eabi
    
    AOPS = --warn --fatal-warnings 
    COPS = -Wall -Werror -O2 -nostdlib -nostartfiles -ffreestanding 
    
    all : hello.bin
    
    hello.bin : startup.o hello.o memmap
        $(CROSS_COMPILE)-ld startup.o hello.o -T memmap -o hello.elf  
        $(CROSS_COMPILE)-objdump -D hello.elf > hello.list
        $(CROSS_COMPILE)-objcopy hello.elf -O binary hello.bin
    
    startup.o : startup.s
        $(CROSS_COMPILE)-as $(AOPS) startup.s -o startup.o
    
    hello.o : hello.c 
        $(CROSS_COMPILE)-gcc -c $(COPS) hello.c -o hello.o
    
    clean :
        rm -f *.o
        rm -f *.elf
        rm -f *.bin
        rm -f *.list
    

    Looks like I just left the stack pointer wherever the bootloader had it. Likewise, as you, assumed the bootloader had initialized the serial port.

    I assume you have serial port access working, you see uboot and you are able to type commands in order to download this program (xmodem, or whatever) into the boards ram? If you cant do that then it may be you are not connected to the serial port right. the beagleboards serial port is screwy, might need to make your own cable.

    You can't just blindly write a string of characters to a UART - you need to check status on each character - it works in the single character example because the UART is always going to be ready for the first character, but for the second and subsequent characters you need to poll (or better yet use an ISR, but let's walk before we run).

    There's some good example code here: http://hardwarefreak.wordpress.com/2011/08/30/some-experience-with-the-beagleboard-xm-part-2/
