Running Benchmark Application h264 decoder

[santhosh-kumar.rethinagiri]

Would it be possible to run the benchmark application provided in the soclib .. as it gives more error.

can see its not loading nothing at this address 0x7f400000.

and in the terminal

CPU Fault: cpuid (0) faultid(5-Other)
Execution pointer: 0x5000cd74

I have attached the binary and log file with this mail

According to platform description file (pf_decoder_h264_6_ppc.dts) 0x7f400000 seems to be the RAM segment, therefore there is nothing to load in it. Not loading anything is a correct behavior to me.

As for the CPU fault, I can't tell you much about the application, I never touched it. Some insights:

• Can you get the same decoder to run with 1, 2, 3 and 4 CPUs ? (i.e. is it only failing with 6 CPUs ?)
• Can you get it to work for other architectures (i.e. Mips, ARM ?)
• Can you try to attach a GDB to your simulator to see what's happening ?

Tried to run with different processors and different sets of processor and have updated the log file. Its not decoding the video file.

Problems are probably in the application code
