.Sh DESCRIPTION
|
|
.Nm Stlload
|
|
is used to download the firmware code to Stallion Technologies intelligent
|
|
multiport serial boards.
|
|
A firmware download is only required for those boards that use the Stallion
|
|
.Nm stli
|
|
driver.
|
|
This includes the EasyConnection 8/64, ONboard and Brumby families of boards.
|
|
.Pp
|
|
Different board types require different firmware images.
|
|
If the wrong firmware is loaded into a board it will fail to operate.
|
|
.Pp
|
|
The download process is achieved through the Stallion
|
|
.Nm stli
|
|
driver control device,
|
|
.Pa /dev/staliomem? .
|
|
This device implements a file type device that can read and write into the
|
|
boards shared memory region.
|
|
It also implements a number of special
|
|
.Em ioctls
|
|
that reset and restart the board.
|
|
.Pp
|
|
The options are:
|
|
.Bl -tag -width indent
|
|
.It Fl v
|
|
Verbose output generation.
|
|
Trace is generated at each phase of the download and startup process.
|
|
.It Fl h
|
|
Output usage information.
|
|
.It Fl V
|
|
Output version information.
|
|
.It Fl R
|
|
Reset the board only.
|
|
Does not proceed to download firmware to the board.
|
|
.It Fl i Ar image-file
|
|
Specify the firmware image file to download.
|
|
The default firmware image is
|
|
.Pa /usr/libdata/stallion/cdk.sys .
|
|
.It Fl c Ar control-device
|
|
Specify the board control device through which to download the firmware
|
|
and start up the board.
|
|
The default is
|
|
.Pa /dev/staliomem0 .
|
|
.It Fl r Ar rx-buf-size
|
|
Specify the size of the boards shared memory Receive Data buffer.
|
|
By default the buffer is dynamically sized to use the maximum
|
|
available shared memory.
|
|
.It Fl t Ar tx-buf-size
|
|
Specify the size of the boards shared memory Transmit Data buffer.
|
|
By default the buffer is dynamically sized to use the maximum
|
|
available shared memory.
|
|
.It Fl B Ar boot-banner
|
|
Enable the slave debug trace flag during download.
|
|
This enables debug trace output from the firmware code.
|
|
This trace is output on port 0 of the board,
|
|
and the port is set to 9600 baud, 8 data bits, no parity and 1 stop bit.
|
|
.It Fl b Ar unit-number
|
|
Specify the unit (board) number to be downloaded. The default is to
|
|
download board 0.
