802.15.4 test Application: 1) Loopback in single qemu: $ make qemu0 This enables the dummy driver will feed sending 802.15.4 frames back to 15_4 Rx FIFO. 15_4 Rx FIFO will asseble all frames and feed it to IP Rx FIFO. 2) Loopback between two qemus without monitoring support: $ make qemu1 Then in second window start the other qemu $ make qemu2 If you want to run test 3) then you need to remove the pipes before doing so. $ make remove_pipes 3) Loopback between two qemus with monitoring support: $ make qemu1monitor Then in second window start the monitor (found in net/ip/tools directory) $ ./monitor_15_4 sample.pcap Then in third window start the other qemu $ make qemu2monitor If you want to run test 2) then you need to remove the pipes before doing so. $ make remove_pipes Expert and more detailed instructions: -------------------------------------- You can execute the tests manually if needed. Just follow the instructions below. 802.15.4 test Application: 1) Loopback in single qemu: Enable CONFIG_NETWORKING_WITH_15_4_LOOPBACK config option in prj_x86/arm.conf to test 802.15.4. By enabling this option dummy driver will feed sending 802.15.4 frames back to 15_4 Rx FIFO. 15_4 Rx FIFO will asseble all frames and feed it to IP Rx FIFO. 2) Loopback between two qemus: Enable CONFIG_NETWORKING_WITH_15_4_LOOPBACK_UART config option in prj_x86/arm.conf to send 802.15.4 frames out through QEMU UART and receive frames through QEMU UART. Follow below simple steps to create fifos at host. $ mkfifo /tmp/ip-15-4-1.{in,out} $ ln /tmp/ip-15-4-1.in /tmp/ip-15-4-2.out $ ln /tmp/ip-15-4-1.out /tmp/ip-15-4-2.in Open two terminals and run two qemus with below options. $ make qemu QEMU_NUM=1 CONFIG_NETWORKING_WITH_15_4_LOOPBACK_UART=y $ make qemu QEMU_NUM=2 CONFIG_NETWORKING_WITH_15_4_LOOPBACK_UART=y 3) Loopback between two qemus and pcap support: Enable CONFIG_NETWORKING_WITH_15_4_LOOPBACK_UART config option in prj_x86/arm.conf to send 802.15.4 frames out through QEMU UART and receive frames through QEMU UART. Follow below simple steps to create fifos at host. $ mkfifo /tmp/ip-15-4-1.{in,out} $ mkfifo /tmp/ip-15-4-2.{in,out} also read net/ip/contiki/tools/README and run monitor_15.4 and then $ make qemu QEMU_NUM=1 CONFIG_NETWORKING_WITH_15_4_LOOPBACK_UART=y $ make qemu QEMU_NUM=2 CONFIG_NETWORKING_WITH_15_4_LOOPBACK_UART=y
