Status of Front End IPC channels
I wrote a python script to summarize the IPC channels defined by the H1.ipc file. The script is userapps/release/cds/h1/scripts/ipc_channel_report.py
total num of Dolphin CS channels 233
total num of Dolphin EX channels 23
total num of Dolphin EY channels 36
total num of RFM0 channels 9
total num of RFM1 channels 9
total num of SHMEM channels 46
Here is its output:
total num of Dolphin CS channels 233
total num of Dolphin EX channels 23
total num of Dolphin EY channels 36
total num of RFM0 channels 9
total num of RFM1 channels 9
total num of SHMEM channels 46
For the Dolphin channels, I checked to see which ones no longer exist in any H1 models (I grep'ed them in userapps/release/*/h1/models/*mdl). Here is the list of supposedly obsolete channels:
H1:ALS-Y_ARM_IPC
H1:ASC-Y_TR_A_PIT_IPC
H1:ASC-Y_TR_A_SUM_IPC
H1:ASC-Y_TR_A_YAW_IPC
H1:ASC-Y_TR_B_PIT_IPC
H1:ASC-Y_TR_B_SUM_IPC
H1:ASC-Y_TR_B_YAW_IPC
H1:ISCEY-SUSETMY_LONG
H1:ISCEY-SUSETMY_PIT
H1:ISCEY-SUSETMY_YAW
H1:ISCEY-SUSTMSY_PIT
H1:ISCEY-SUSTMSY_YAW
H1:LSC-Y_TR_A_IPC
H1:SUS-ITMX_M0_OFFLOAD_RX_IPC
H1:SUS-ITMX_M0_OFFLOAD_RY_IPC
H1:SUS-ITMX_M0_OFFLOAD_RZ_IPC
H1:SUS-ITMX_M0_OFFLOAD_X_IPC
H1:SUS-ITMX_M0_OFFLOAD_Y_IPC
H1:SUS-ITMX_M0_OFFLOAD_Z_IPC
We will most probably take the opportunity to rebuild the H1.ipc file from scratch when we upgrade to RCG2.8 to remove obsolete channels.
