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
