RESOLVED - Calculating Register Pointer-Adresses

Recommended Posts

Hi, I wanted to ask how you calculate the Adress for the Gate3[0].HomeCapt[1] Register. My Problem ist that I just do not seem to get it right when I use it in the Interrupt Service Routine.

 

Here is how I calculate it:

 

int Gate3ZeroAdress;

int *G3ZhomeCapt ;

 

Gate3ZeroAdress = pshm -> OffsetGate3[0] ;

G3ZhomeCapt = (int*)piom + ((Gate3ZeroAdress + 0x80 + 0x74) >> 2) ;

 

0x80 Is the Offset for Chan[1]

0x74 Is the Offset for HomeCapt

 

The use of the Gate-Array structure

volatile GateArray3 *MyFirstGate3IC;

MyFirstGate3IC = GetGate3MemPtr(0);

and consequently

MyFirstGate3IC -> Chan[1].HomeCapt

in the Interrupt Servo Routine clears the register and rearms it for the next Interrupt when I read that Register out.

 

When I read out G3ZhomeCapt it does not rearm clear the register or rearms it. Can someone tell me why

G3ZhomeCapt != MyFirstGate3IC ->Chan[1].HomeCapt ?

 

Best regards,

hannsx

If you want to use a direct pointer based on numerical addresses, it would look like this.

volatile unsigned int *MyHomeCapt1;
MyHomeCapt1 = (unsigned int *)piom + pshm->OffsetGate3[0]/4 + 0x80/4 + 0x74/4;

 

It would be much easier to use gate pointers like below, however they will use more memory. I would recommend this method if possible.

volatile GateIOStruct *GateIo[1];
GateIo[0] = GetGateIOMemPtr(0);
GateIo[0] -> DataReg[3] = (0xFF << 8);

 

I am attaching a couple short sections about these pointer types.
