Re: IPSM under Windows CE 4.2 on StrongArm 1100 CPU

I don't, sorry. Here is the info page on it, with contact info...

Hello,

Dean do you know anything about the BSquare JVM for Windows CE 4.2?
I have been told the following, but don't know how to get hold of it:

" re: JEM-CE
Contact Bsquare. For some reason, their install works with the Win CE
device, While the Esmertec or insignia jeode vms from handango do not. My
getting a load of the JEM install was coincidental, and had to do with
other factors related to an install problem. They normally only sell
their product as bundled in a rom image, so you would have to look into
packaging their JVM into your Win CE 4.2 update image.
"
Thanks
Simon

No. IPSM is a monolithic filesystem, and does not follow the standard MS
block driver/FSD architecture. It is not compatible with the Storage
Manager architecture.

Thank you for your advise, the ARMV4I instructions indeed caused the
failure on my StrongArm 1100.

To get it working I looked at the PSMFSD.LIB file in the IPSM v3.7 for
WinCE4.2 with "notepad" and found ARMV4I in the file paths in the binary
file. I noticed that the PocketPC and Smartphone versions only have
ARMV4 in them...

Trying the PocketPC version of PSMFSD.LIB works find with either its own
DEF file or the longer DEF file from the Windows CE 4.2 directory in
IPSM 3.7.

Thanks for the ARMV4I hint!

Final question
Now it is working under Windows CE 4.2 on my SA1100 CPU and Strata J3
flash chips... BUT should the IPSM appear in the StorageManager in the
Control Panel? It doesn't on mine...

Best regards
Simon

The bx instruction is "branch and exchange". This is not an XScale
specific instruction, it's a standard ARM instruction. However, it
requires a version of the ARM core that supports interworking (Thumb
and normal modes), which MS calls ARMV4I. The bx instruction is the
return instruction for every function call, so it's not surprising you
got hit immediately. The SA1100 doesn't support Thumb, thus the
undefined instruction exception.

Your only recourse is a version that is built specifically for standard
ARM, no interworking allowed.

It's not in PB. You have to get it from Intel. Since, when you get
it from Intel, you also get Premier support, you should ask them for
the official line on which version works with SA1100. Are you saying
that the exception occurs before your PLAT_DefineArrayParameters()
function is called even once?

Hello,

I have tried and tried to get the IPSM 3.7 and 3.8 to work on my old
StrongArm SA1100 and Intel Strata flash based system with Windows CE
4.2. It never starts and the debug fails with an "illegal
instruction" at an instruction right at the start of the IPSM
initialisation code.

The instruction is "bx lr" and I assume this is an Xscale instruction
that then fails on my StrongArm...

Does anyone know what was the last version of the IPSM 3.6 or 2.6? to
support strongarm CPUs and that someone got working with Windows CE
4.2.
I have asked Intel in the USA and the UK, neither have been able to
answer me.

Interestingly, by confusing me further is that this web page says
that IPSm is included in Windows CE 4.2, but the Microsoft
documentation on the Platform Builder installation says that it is
not hthere and I can't find it.
