2 CPUs with shared BRAM, BRAM init

Hi,

I'm having some trouble with the generated system_bd.bmm in XPS 12.4.

I got a XPS design with two processors (1 PPC440, 1Microblaze) on a Virtex5FXT.

Both CPU must communicate with each other through one shared bram, every CPU has its own PLB. 

 

Address MAP:

PPC: 0xFFFF0000 -- 0xFFFFFFFF   bram_1

PPC: 0xFFFE0000 -- 0xFFFEFFFF   bram_2 (port2, shared with mb)

 

MB: 0x00000000 -- 0x0000FFFF     bram_2 (port1, main memory for Mblaze)

 

XPS always generates a wrong system_bd.bmm file which I always must fix manually, that's quiete annoying.

When initializing the bram with both elf-files, the microblaze program gets overwritten.

 

I have tried to put a gep in the address map of the PPC, but this didn't help.

 

 

Here is the generated system.bmm:
