最近实验室需要做一个 Linux 与 FPGA 之间的快速接口，考虑高速的特性，选择了 PCI 接口实现。
FPGA 选择 altera 的 EP2C20F484C8
PCI 接口芯片选择 PLX8311
操作系统选择 ubuntu10.04
将板卡插入到主机 PCI 插槽内，开机，通过 lspci 命令可以检测到当前系统下所有的 PCI 设备。
02:00.0 PCI bridge: PLX Technology, Inc. PEX 8111 PCI Express-to-PCI Bridge (rev 21) 03:04.0 Bridge: PLX Technology, Inc. PCI9056 32-bit 66MHz PCI <-> IOBus Bridge (rev ba)
通过返回结果，可以知道 PLX8311 实际上是由 PEX8111 实现 PCI-E 到 PCI 的转换，并且通过 PCI9056 实现 PCI 到 IOBus 的转换。
所以，我们要在 Linux 下实现的设备驱动就是 PLX9056。
直接进入 PLX 官网，下载满足要求的 linux 发行版 SDK 工具包。
SDK 官网下载地址:http://www.plxtech.com/products/sdk/pde
我选择下载的版本是：PLX_SDK_Linux_v7_11_Final_2014-03-04.zip
注意下载的时候需要注册。

PlxSdk/Include
PLX SDK include files，编译时依赖的头文件
PlxSdk/PlxApi
PLX Host API Library source，编译后产生所需的库
PlxSdk/Driver
Various PLX device drivers，驱动所在文件
PlxSdk/Samples
Sample applications，所有示例
PlxSdk/Samples/PlxCm
A command-line application, which is useful when working with PLX devices，所有的命令行文件
PlxSdk/Makefiles
Shared makefile components used to build PLX applications, libraries, and drivers，makefile 文件
PlxSdk/Bin
Scripts to load, unload, and assist in debug of the driver/module，用于加载，卸载驱动，打印日志的脚本
1) Copy the PLX Linux TAR file to the desired working directory, e.g. the user’s home directory or /usr/linux/src.
把下载得到的 *.zip 使用 uzip 命令解压以后，会得到一个 PlxSdk.tar 包，将这个 tar 包拷贝到你的工作目录下，我选择了 /usr/src/ 下面，这个可以根据自己的需要，设置到不同的目录下。
2) If the PLX file contains a .gz extension, the file must first be unzipped, as follows: gunzip PlxSdk.tar.gz
如果文件被进一步打包成 .gz 包的话，就需要使用 gunzip 命令来解压压缩包。我在这里没有遇到，这个根据下载到的安装包自己选择操作方式。
3) Use a TAR file extractor or open a terminal window and type the following command: tar -xvf PlxSdk.tar
解压 tar 包，使用命令 tar -xvf PlxSdk.ta
4) This will create a folder called PlxSdk with all PLX supplied files and folders inside.
解压以后得到 PlxSdk 文件夹。
root@abscom-desktop:/usr/src# ls linux-headers-2.6.32-38 linux-source-2.6.32.tar.bz2 PlxSdk.tar linux-headers-2.6.32-38-generic PlxSdk root@abscom-desktop:/usr/src#
root@abscom-desktop:/usr/src/PlxSdk# ls Bin Driver Include Makefile Makefiles PlxApi Samples root@abscom-desktop:/usr/src/PlxSdk#
5) In order to build the files supplied, the shell environment variable PLX_SDK_DIR must be set. This should be set to the root location of where the PlxSdk folder is created. This can be set with the export command and may be placed in the shell initialization script (e.g. “.bashrc”) so that it is automatically set when a new terminal session is started.
Examples: export PLX_SDK_DIR=$HOME/PlxSdk
export PLX_SDK_DIR=/usr/src/PlxSdk
使用 root 身份，设置 PLX_SDK_DIR 环境变量，用于制定安装目录。可以在 .bashrc 下面设置，我选择在 enviroment 下设置。
root@abscom-desktop:/usr/src/PlxSdk# vi /etc/environment root@abscom-desktop:/usr/src/PlxSdk# source /etc/environment root@abscom-desktop:/usr/src/PlxSdk#
通过 vi /etc/environment 添加如下命令：
export PLX_SDK_DIR=/usr/src/PlxSdk
通过 source 命令使得环境变量生效。
root@abscom-desktop:/usr/src/PlxSdk# echo $PLX_SDK_DIR /usr/src/PlxSdk
PLX only tests the Linux package for Intel x86 compatible platforms. The PLX makefiles attempt to auto-detect other platforms to set the Big/Little Endian & 32/64-bit options. If this package is used with an unsupported CPU, the PLX makefile will halt with an error. To resolve the issue, follow the steps below:
此 SDK 是在 Intel X86 机器上试验的，对于其他的机器需要配置，比如大小端、32/64 位机器。
1）. Open PlxSdk/Makefiles/Common.def.
2）. Find the CPU properties section at the top
3）. Add an entry for your architecture & set PLX_CPU_BITS & PLX_CPU_ENDIAN variables accordingly, following the example of existing entries.
For example:
ifeq ($(ARCH),mips64)
PLX_CPU_BITS = 64
PLX_CPU_ENDIAN = Big
endif
使用 uname 命令查看自己机器的信息：
root@abscom-desktop:/usr/src/PlxSdk# uname -a Linux abscom-desktop 2.6.32-38-generic #83-Ubuntu SMP Wed Jan 4 11:13:04 UTC 2012 i686 GNU/Linux
通过分析命令返回的结果，知道我们系统的内核是 2.6 的，是因特尔的 i686 架构机器。由于因特尔都是小端模式的，因此不需要再设置这一变量。
如果是大端的机器，需要设置如下环境变量：
export PLX_CPU_BIG_ENDIAN=1
使用 file 命令，查看机器位数：
root@abscom-desktop:/usr/src/PlxSdk# file /sbin/init /sbin/init: ELF 32-bit LSB shared object, Intel 80386, version 1 (SYSV), dynamically linked (uses shared libs), for GNU/Linux 2.6.15, stripped
通过分析返回结果，可以知道我的机器是 32 位的，因此不必设置位数环境变量。
如果是 64 为机器，需要设置如下环境变量：
export PLX_CPU_BITS=64
To build user-level components (API library or applications), change to the desired component directory and type ‘make’. Makefiles are included in the package. Depending upon the installation location, the Makefile environment variables may need to be modified to avoid build errors.
To build the API library, type the following commands in a terminal window:
prompt> cd PlxSdk/PlxApi
prompt> make编译 API 库
To build a sample application, type the following commands in a terminal window:
prompt> cd PlxSdk/Samples/ApiTest
prompt> make编译一个案例
To build a Debug version instead of the default Release version, type the following command in a terminal window:
prompt> make PLX_DEBUG=1如果要编译 DEBUG 版本，就添加 PLX_DEBUG=1 参数，不添加默认生成 RELEASE 版本
To see the complete command-line during the build of each component, add ‘V=1’ to the make parameters:
prompt> make PLX_DEBUG=1 V=1如果想要看到编译时的全部命令，可以添加 V=1 参数
To clean a build, change to the desired directory and type one of the following commands in a terminal window:
prompt> make clean (Removes all object and intermediate build files, but not final image)
prompt> make cleanall (Removes all build files, including final image)
清理编译结果
下表用于参考，选择自己要编译哪个设备的驱动。
The build of drivers involves the use of a PLX-provided script file (builddriver), which is located in the PlxSdk/Driver directory. This is provided to simplify the build of multiple drivers, which share a common code base. The builddriver script will build a debug or release version of the driver for a desired PLX chip. Its usage is as follows:
进入到 Driver 文件夹，进行驱动的编译，其中 builddriver 用于编译某个特定的驱动， builddriverall 用于编译所有的驱动。
root@abscom-desktop:/usr/src/PlxSdk/Driver# ls buildalldrivers Plx8311 Source.Plx8000_DMA Source.PlxSvc builddriver Plx9056 Source.Plx8000_NT Makefile Source.Plx6000_NT Source.Plx9000
如下显示不同编译选项：
Usage: builddriver {Driver} [DebugOption] [CleanOption]
Driver = 8000n : PLX 8000 NT-mode driver
8000d : PLX 8000 DMA Controller driver
9050 : PLX 9050/9052 driver
9030 : PLX 9030 driver
9080 : PLX 9080 driver
9054 : PLX 9054 driver
9056 : PLX 9056 driver
9656 : PLX 9656 driver
8311 : PLX 8311 driver
6000n : PLX 6254/6540/6466 NT-mode driver
Svc : PLX PCI/PCIe Service driver
DebugOption = <none> : Build Release build of module
'd' : Build Debug build of module
CleanOption = <none> : Build the driver
'clean' : Remove intermediate build files
'cleanall' : Remove all build files
E.g.: builddriver 9054 d - Build 9054 module debug version
builddriver Svc - Build PlxSvc service module release version
builddriver 8000n clean - Remove intermediate build files of 8000-NT module如下展示不同的编译方法：
Some examples of using the script are:
prompt> cd PlxSdk/Driver (Change to the driver directory)
prompt> ./builddriver 8000n d (Build debug version of the 8000 NT driver)
prompt> ./builddriver Svc (Build release version of the PLX Service driver)
prompt> ./builddriver 9054 d clean (Remove intermediate build files only for the debug version of the 9054 driver – does not delete driver binary, Plx9054_dbg.ko)
prompt> ./builddriver 6000 cleanall (Remove all build files for the 6000 NT driver)
这边我需要的是 PLX9056 的驱动，所以我只要编译 9056 的驱动就可以。
Build: Plx9056 - PLA: Linux, version ??? - KER: 2.6.32-38-generic - INC: /lib/modules/2.6.32-38-generic/build/include - CPU: i386 (32-bit Little Endian) - CMP: Gcc - TYP: Driver - PLX: 9056 - CFG: Release make[1]: Entering directory `/usr/src/linux-headers-2.6.32-38-generic' Building modules, stage 2. MODPOST 1 modules make[1]: Leaving directory `/usr/src/linux-headers-2.6.32-38-generic' Driver "Plx9056/Plx9056.ko" built sucessfully
编译后，会在当前目录生成一个 Plx9056 文件夹：
root@abscom-desktop:/usr/src/PlxSdk/Driver/Plx9056# ls Obj Plx9056.ko
这里的 Plx9056.ko 就是我们需要的驱动了。
PLX device drivers are implemented as installable modules and scripts are provided to load and unload them. The scripts are located in the <PlxSdk/Bin> directory and are listed below. Please use the provided PLX scripts to load/unload drivers instead of the Linux insmod/rmmod utilities.
进入 Bin 目录，这里驱动的加载方式与 Linux 自带的 insmod/rmmod 不同，而是选择通过它自己的脚本来实现。
Plx_load
Script to load a module，加载驱动
Plx_unload
Script to unload a module，卸载驱动
startlog
Sample script which sets up a terminal to display driver debug output，显示驱动 debug 输出
通过 Plx_load 命令加载驱动：
root@abscom-desktop:/usr/src/PlxSdk/Bin# ./Plx_load 9056 Install: Plx9056 Load module......... Ok (Plx9056.ko) Verify load......... Ok Get major number.... Ok (MajorID = 250) Create node path.... Ok (/dev/plx) Create nodes........ Ok (/dev/plx/Plx9056)
查看设备驱动：
root@abscom-desktop:/usr/src/PlxSdk/Bin# ls /dev/plx/ Plx9056 Plx9056-10 Plx9056-13 Plx9056-16 Plx9056-4 Plx9056-7 Plx9056-0 Plx9056-11 Plx9056-14 Plx9056-2 Plx9056-5 Plx9056-8 Plx9056-1 Plx9056-12 Plx9056-15 Plx9056-3 Plx9056-6 Plx9056-9
通过 Plx_unload 命令卸载驱动：
root@abscom-desktop:/usr/src/PlxSdk/Bin# ./Plx_unload 9056 Remove: Plx9056 Unload module................... Ok (Plx9056) Clear device nodes.............. Ok (/dev/plx/Plx9056) Delete device node path......... Ok (/dev/plx)
运行 Sample 文件夹下面的 ApiTest 程序。
首先编译得到运行程序 make：
Build: ApiTest - PLA: Linux, version ??? - KER: 2.6.32-38-generic - CPU: i386 (32-bit Little Endian) - CMP: Gcc - TYP: App - CFG: Release Link: ApiTest Application "App/ApiTest" built successfully
编译会在当前目录创建一个 App 目录，可执行程序就在里面，运行结果如下：

至此，PLX9056 的设备驱动已经生成完毕，设备能够正常工作了，下一步就是设计 FPGA 程序，实现 FPGA 与 linux 之间通过 DMA 实现数据交互。最后附上设备图片。
