RE: Problem with getchar / gets / fgets


Hi,
Does somebody have a council to solve my problem?
I have a Shell application and input lost a lot of characters. On my PowerPc
MPC860 target, I have to hit each character several times to display it on
minicom.
Thanks
Nicolas

Nothing special in my eCos configuration.
I use a port of eCos to an EP860CE board (based on Viper port).

the output of ecosconfig export is:

------------------------------------------------------------------
If I enable MMU, DCACHE and ICACHE, I have better results : less characters
are lost in minicom (about 10% lost).
If I disable MMU, DCACHE and ICACHE, about 80% are lost.

If I use CYGNUM_HAL_VIRTUAL_VECTOR_CONSOLE_CHANNEL_BAUD = 9600, I have
exactly the same results.

I didn't try a simplified setup.

What's special with your eCos configuration?  Can you send the output
of 'ecosconfig export'?  I just ran with a default configuration:
  % ecosconfig new adder852 net
  % ecosconfig tree; make

Have you tried such a simplified setup?
