Up Squared Audio DSP
####################

System Requirements
*******************

Prerequisites
=============

The Zephyr SDK 0.11 or higher is required.

Since firmware binary signing for Audio DSP is mandatory on Intel products
form Skylake onwards the signing tool and key are needed.

``up_squared`` board is running Linux with `SOF Diagnostic Driver`_ built and
loaded.

Signing tool
------------

rimage is Audio DSP firmware image creation and signing tool. The tool is used
by `Sound Open Firmware`_ to generate binary firmware signed images.

For the building instructions refer to `rimage Build Instructions`_.

Signing keys
------------

The key used is Intel Open Source Technology Center (OTC) community key.
It can be freely used by anyone and intended for firmware developers.
Please download and store private key from the location:
https://github.com/thesofproject/sof/blob/master/rimage/keys/otc_private_key.pem

For more information about keys refer to `rimage keys`_.

Setup up_squared board
----------------------

To setup Linux on ``up_squared`` board refer to
`Getting Started with Ubuntu Core on an UP Squared Board`_.

After installing Linux build and install `SOF Diagnostic Driver`_.

Programming and Debugging
*************************

Build Zephyr application
========================

Applications can be build in the usual way (see :ref:`build_an_application`
for more details). The only additional step required is signing. For example,
for building ``hello_world`` application following steps are needed.

#. Building Zephyr application ``hello_world``

   .. zephyr-app-commands::
      :zephyr-app: samples/hello_world
      :board: up_squared_adsp
      :goals: build

#. Sign and create firmware image

   .. code-block:: console

      west sign -t rimage -- -k <path to otc_private_key.pem>

Loading image to Audio DSP
==========================

`SOF Diagnostic Driver`_ provide interface for firmware loading. Python tools
in the board support directory use the interface to load firmware to ``ADSP``.

.. code-block:: console

   $ sudo boards/xtensa/up_squared_adsp/tools/fw_loader.py -f <path to zephyr.ri>

Debugging
=========

The only way to debug application is using logging. Logging and ADSP logging
backend needs to be enabled in the application configuration.

ADSP logging backend writes logs to the ring buffer in the shared memory.
Python tools are using `SOF Diagnostic Driver`_ interface to get logs.

.. code-block:: console

   $ sudo boards/xtensa/up_squared_adsp/tools/dump_trace.py
   Open HDA device: /dev/hda
   0 : Hello World! up_squared_adsp
