Hi ,

Is there any support for windows?

npm run electron-rebuild

I get these errors:

• Windows is currently not supported. Only Linux and OSX are supported currently.
• Though you can get this rebuild working. This app depends on node-beagle-boot module to boot BeagleBone into USB Mass Storage. And this module relies on node-usb module whose current 1.2.0 release doesn't support VS 2015, 17 for build. See v1.3.0 not published in NPM node-usb/node-usb#193
• So, currently we've to use VS 2013 for build on Windows. This solves the rebuild issue for now and app runs.
• But as I said Windows isn't supported yet. For Windows support, I'd need to update node-beagle-boot as we're having bootloader transfer issues on Windows. I'll update the documentation regarding this.
• In meantime you can try this on Linux and OSX. Thanks for trying the app :)

OK thanks for the quick replay. looking forward to work with it with windows!
What about linux VM hosted on windows station, is it possible to run it with Linux VM ? something like Linux on VirtualBox?

Harel

[ravikp7]

I'm not sure, but you can can try it on a virtual machine. I recommend you to try using VMware. They have a good USB support plus there are many tutorials online regarding usb on vmware. Also get the lts 6.11.2 version of node installed first to run this. Or if you can wait, this week I'll be publishing the native packages to run the app directly on Linux and OS X.

[jadonk]

We've talked about 2 ways to handle the Windows support issue:

1. Update u-boot/SPL to use the default configuration such that Windows can use them.
2. Manually add control transfers to select the desired configuration.

[ravikp7]

This issue needs to be fixed ravikp7/node-beagle-boot#14 for Windows Support

I've changed the default configuration in ether.c but still unable to open RNDIS in windows.

Hi @yassinjaffer , can you please share your changes in ether.c , so that I can test it.
Thanks

[ravikp7]

Hi @yassinjaffer , you also need to install the WinUSB drivers for the SPL device also through Zadig. You've probably already installed it for the ROM device. After SPL transfer, the device shows up as SPL device. uboot needs to be transferred to this SPL device and your logs show that it's failing at uboot transfer due to libusb not supported error.

[yassinjaffer]

Hi
I don't think there is a need to change the configuration is the ether.c the driver lists the RNDIS config first

high speed config #1: 2 mA, Ethernet Gadget, using RNDIS
ERROR: The remote end did not respond in time.
at drivers/usb/gadget/ether.c:2396/usb_eth_init()
Problem booting with BOOTP

ERROR ### Please RESET the board

[ravikp7]

On Windows and macOS, I'm not getting the default config as rndis. I set the rndis config on macOS through libusb, then it worked. On Windows, changing config isn't supported through libusb. So, the config needs to be changed in uboot for this.
How did you get the interface claimed for the spl device for uboot transfer above ? Did you use different binaries other than the ones provided ?

[yassinjaffer]

I've built commit id 524123a70761110c5cf3ccc5f52f6d4da071b959
and changed RNDIS config to 1 CDC config to 2 as well as changing the configuarion in the main.js to 1

[yassinjaffer]

Ive also tried the latest mainline u-boot

Hi Ravi
I've added special routine to handle windows case through cdc-ether configuration

function ether_transfer(filePath, device, foundDevice){
var ifaces = os.networkInterfaces();
setTimeout(function () {
for(var interfaceName in os.networkInterfaces()) {
if(typeof(ifaces[interfaceName]) == 'undefined'){
defIface = interfaceName;
var cmd = 'netsh interface ip set address name="'+interfaceName+ '" static 192.168.0.1 255.255.255.0';
childProcess.exec(cmd, (error, stdout, stderr) => {
if (error) {
emitterMod.emit('error', "Network Control " +error);
return;
}
description = path.basename(filePath)+" =>";
emitterMod.emit('progress', {description: description, complete: +percent.toFixed(2)});
dhcp_create();
tftp_create();
});
break;
}
}
}, 1500);
}

function tftp_create() {
tftp_server = tftp_mod.createServer({
host: "0.0.0.0",
port: 69,
root: path.join(__dirname, 'bin')
});

tftp_server.on ("error", function (error){
	emitterMod.emit('error', "TFTP Transfer " +error);
});

tftp_server.on ("request", function (req, res){
	req.on ("error", function (error){
		emitterMod.emit('error', "TFTP Transfer " + error.message);
	});
	req.on ("end", function (){
		percent += increment;
		emitterMod.emit('progress', {description: "uboot transfer complete", complete: +percent.toFixed(2)});
	});		
	emitterMod.emit('progress', {description: "uboot transfer starts", complete: +percent.toFixed(2)});
});	
tftp_server.listen ();

}

function dhcp_create() {
dhcp_socket = dgram.createSocket('udp4');

dhcp_socket.bind({host: INADDR_ANY, port:DHCP_SERVER_PORT}, () => {
dhcp_socket.setTTL(1);
dhcp_socket.setBroadcast(true);
});

dhcp_socket.on('error', (error) => {
emitterMod.emit('error', "Network Control " +error);
dhcp_socket.close();
});

dhcp_socket.on('listening', () => {
const address = dhcp_socket.address();
console.log(dhcp_socket listening ${address.address}:${address.port});
});

dhcp_socket.on('message', (msg, rinfo) => {
var bootp = protocols.eth_parse_bootp(msg);
ether = protocols.decode_ether(toBuffer(bootp.hwaddr));
bootreply = protocols.make_bootp(servername, 'uboot', bootp.xid, ether.h_dest, BB_ip, server_ip);
dhcp_socket.send(bootreply, DHCP_CLIENT_PORT, INADDR_BROADCAST, (error) => {
if (error) {
emitterMod.emit('error', "Network Control " +error);
dhcp_socket.close();
}
});
});
}

});

[yassinjaffer]

for tftp I used the tftp module and I've done some clean up when the usb is detached
usb.on('detach', function(device){
emitterMod.emit('disconnect', foundDevice);
if(foundDevice == 'SPL' && platform == 'win32'){
dhcp_socket.close();
tftp_server.close();
foundDevice = 'undefined';
}
});

[ravikp7]

Hi @yassinjaffer
Were you able to transfer u-boot on Windows eventually?
I couldn't understand your solution, please elaborate more.
It would be good if you share your changes in your fork on github, I can't compare or understand the code (here in comments) completely.

[yassinjaffer]

Hi
Sorry for the messy code. Yes I was able to transfer u-boot and subsequently expose UMS.
I will try to send a proper patch.
My solution involves creating a simple DHCP and TFTP socket servers. to handle u-boot transfer.
The DHCP socket server listens on port 67 for bootp packets and then send a reply. These servers will be invoked once a new network interface created( using USB attach listener and os.networkInterfaces).

[ravikp7]

Sounds good. Looking forward to it 👍
