Hello,
Can anybody guide me where I can find memory
interfacing code (for RAM and Flash) in TS-Linux..
We are implementing VOIP phone with TI's C54CST as
DSP, and to access that we are trying to implement
HPI, and in order to access the DSP memory thru HPI we
want to find the code to interface the basic in-built
memory..
Any help or reference to documentation for this
topic will be appritiated..
Many Thanks,
Manish Varma.
