This removes the definition of the offset variable, volatile uint32_t usb_bulk_buffer_offset = 0; which is actually superfluous. This variable, along with its neighbour usb_bulk_buffer_tx, is placed explicitly by the linker script. Its type is defined by the declaration in usb_bulk_buffer.h. There is no need to define it here, and doing so gives the misleading impression that its initial value can be changed by modifying this line! The initialization to zero never actually takes effect, because the variable is not placed in the .data or .bss sections which are initialised by the startup code. The offset and tx variables are both set in set_transceiver_mode before SGPIO streaming is started, so the M0 code does not use them uninitialised.
The primary firmware source code for USB HackRF devices is hackrf_usb. Most of the other directories contain firmware source code for test and development. The common directory contains source code shared by multiple HackRF firmware projects. The cpld directory contains HDL source for the CPLD. The firmware is set up for compilation with the GCC toolchain available here: https://developer.arm.com/open-source/gnu-toolchain/gnu-rm/downloads Required dependency: https://github.com/mossmann/libopencm3 If you are using git, the preferred way to install libopencm3 is to use the submodule: $ cd .. $ git submodule init $ git submodule update To build and install a standard firmware image for HackRF One: $ cd hackrf_usb $ mkdir build $ cd build $ cmake .. $ make $ hackrf_spiflash -w hackrf_usb.bin If you have a Jawbreaker, add -DBOARD=JAWBREAKER to the cmake command. If you have a rad1o, use -DBOARD=RAD1O instead. It is possible to use a USB Device Firmware Upgrade (DFU) method to load firmware into RAM. This is normally only required to recover a device that has had faulty firmware loaded, but it can also be useful for firmware developers. For loading firmware into RAM with DFU you will need: http://dfu-util.sourceforge.net/ To start up HackRF One in DFU mode, hold down the DFU button while powering it on or while pressing and releasing the RESET button. Release the DFU button after the 3V3 LED illuminates. A .dfu file is built by default when building firmware. Alternatively you can use a known good .dfu file from a release package. Load the firmware into RAM with: $ dfu-util --device 1fc9:000c --alt 0 --download hackrf_usb.dfu
