FXLOAD UTILITY
|
||||
|
||||
This program is conveniently able to download firmware into FX, FX2,
|
||||
and FX2LP EZ-USB devices, as well as the original AnchorChips EZ-USB.
|
||||
It is intended to be invoked by hotplug scripts when the unprogrammed
|
||||
device appears on the bus.
|
||||
|
||||
Primarily as an aid for developers, this can also be used to update
|
||||
firmware on devices which boot from I2C serial EEPROMs. For that
|
||||
use, as well as downloading firmware to all other off-chip memory,
|
||||
a second stage loader must first be downloaded.
|
||||
|
||||
The distribution includes "a3load.hex", which is a simple second stage
|
||||
loader that works with all the EZ-USB products listed above. If you
|
||||
want to write to an EEPROM, you can use the appropriate version of the
|
||||
"Vend_Ax" code provided with the Cypress developer kit.
|
||||
|
||||
|
||||
UPDATES
|
||||
|
||||
See the download page at http://linux-hotplug.sourceforge.net for the
|
||||
latest release. The CVS repository there holds the most current version
|
||||
of this software. The web site shows some ways to use "fxload" in
|
||||
conjunction with USB hotplugging, to load device firmware.
|
||||
|
||||
Post any bug reports to the linux-hotplug-devel or linux-usb-devel lists.
|
||||
|
||||
If you modify the code, the GPL requires that you make your updates
|
||||
generally available (under most circumstances). Providing them in the
|
||||
form of patches against the current CVS ("cvs diff -u"), or the last
|
||||
release ("diff -u old new") is most useful, since otherwise it's awkward
|
||||
to integrate such changes into the standard distribution.
