4.6 Setup Steps for WINDOWS PC

To make use of the driver the ti-sample-console application can be run. This application opens the driver, sends IOCTLs to the driver, and waits for the IOCTLs to return.

The KMDF driver uses the pattern sent with the IOCTL to fill the Bar0 data area of the EP and then triggers a downstream interrupt in the EP. The EP copies the data area from the Bar0 to the RC driver's DMA buffer and triggers an MSI in the RC. The RC handles this interrupt and replies to the IOCTL with the data sent back via DMA

This test setup is intended for:

  • Windows-PC as PCIe Rc
  • AM243x as PCIe EP
