Ensure we can read out link status from the CTP6 FE at Chamberlin
Created by: ekfriis
You need to:
- Compile the softipbus TCP server for Petalinux. See the README here [1] for details.
- Upload the softipbus-forward server to /tmp on the CTP6 backend. Get the appropriate IP address and ssh password (user is root) from Jes.
- SSH and run /tmp/soft-ipbus on the BE (leave it running)
- Compile ctp6_fe_uart_ipbus and upload it (
make upload
in its directory) - Use ctp6commander [2] CLI to check the link status
- Document these instructions in the README.md
