Nios2-Linux incompatible with v9.0 generated ptf file

[Altera_Forum]

Hi, 

 I have just recently discovered that Nios2-Linux is incompatible with v9.0 generated ptf files.  When I run the "make vendor_hwselect SYSPTF=my_ptf_file" command, it works with no errors. But when I compile with the "make" command, it gives the following errors :   sets.c:12: /home/zero/nios2-linux/linux-2.6/include/linux/jiffies.h:257:31: warning: "nasys_clock_freq" is not defined /home/zero/nios2-linux/linux-2.6/include/linux/jiffies.h:257:31: warning: "nasys_clock_freq" is not defined /home/zero/nios2-linux/linux-2.6/include/linux/jiffies.h:257:31: division by zero in# if /home/zero/nios2-linux/linux-2.6/include/linux/jiffies.h:257:31: warning: "nasys_clock_freq" is not defined /home/zero/nios2-linux/linux-2.6/include/linux/jiffies.h:257:31: warning: "nasys_clock_freq" is not defined /home/zero/nios2-linux/linux-2.6/include/linux/jiffies.h:257:31: division by zero in# if /home/zero/nios2-linux/linux-2.6/include/linux/jiffies.h:257:31: warning: "nasys_clock_freq" is not defined /home/zero/nios2-linux/linux-2.6/include/linux/jiffies.h:257:31: warning: "nasys_clock_freq" is not defined /home/zero/nios2-linux/linux-2.6/include/linux/jiffies.h:257:31: division by zero in# if /home/zero/nios2-linux/linux-2.6/include/linux/jiffies.h:257:31: division by zero in# if /home/zero/nios2-linux/linux-2.6/include/linux/jiffies.h:257:31: warning: "nasys_clock_freq" is not defined /home/zero/nios2-linux/linux-2.6/include/linux/jiffies.h:257:31: warning: "nasys_clock_freq" is not defined /home/zero/nios2-linux/linux-2.6/include/linux/jiffies.h:257:31: division by zero in# if /home/zero/nios2-linux/linux-2.6/include/linux/jiffies.h:257:31: warning: "nasys_clock_freq" is not defined /home/zero/nios2-linux/linux-2.6/include/linux/jiffies.h:257:31: warning: "nasys_clock_freq" is not defined /home/zero/nios2-linux/linux-2.6/include/linux/jiffies.h:257:31: division by zero in# if /home/zero/nios2-linux/linux-2.6/include/linux/jiffies.h:257:31: warning: "nasys_clock_freq" is not defined /home/zero/nios2-linux/linux-2.6/include/linux/jiffies.h:257:31: warning: "nasys_clock_freq" is not defined /home/zero/nios2-linux/linux-2.6/include/linux/jiffies.h:257:31: division by zero in# if /home/zero/nios2-linux/linux-2.6/include/linux/jiffies.h:257:31: division by zero in# if /home/zero/nios2-linux/linux-2.6/include/linux/jiffies.h:257:31: warning: "nasys_clock_freq" is not defined /home/zero/nios2-linux/linux-2.6/include/linux/jiffies.h:257:31: warning: "nasys_clock_freq" is not defined /home/zero/nios2-linux/linux-2.6/include/linux/jiffies.h:257:31: division by zero in# if /home/zero/nios2-linux/linux-2.6/include/linux/jiffies.h:257:31: warning: "nasys_clock_freq" is not defined /home/zero/nios2-linux/linux-2.6/include/linux/jiffies.h:257:31: warning: "nasys_clock_freq" is not defined /home/zero/nios2-linux/linux-2.6/include/linux/jiffies.h:257:31: division by zero in# if /home/zero/nios2-linux/linux-2.6/include/linux/jiffies.h:257:31: warning: "nasys_clock_freq" is not defined /home/zero/nios2-linux/linux-2.6/include/linux/jiffies.h:257:31: warning: "nasys_clock_freq" is not defined /home/zero/nios2-linux/linux-2.6/include/linux/jiffies.h:257:31: division by zero in# if /home/zero/nios2-linux/linux-2.6/include/linux/jiffies.h:257:31: warning: "nasys_clock_freq" is not defined /home/zero/nios2-linux/linux-2.6/include/linux/jiffies.h:257:31: warning: "nasys_clock_freq" is not defined /home/zero/nios2-linux/linux-2.6/include/linux/jiffies.h:257:31: division by zero in# if /home/zero/nios2-linux/linux-2.6/include/linux/jiffies.h:257:31: warning: "nasys_clock_freq" is not defined /home/zero/nios2-linux/linux-2.6/include/linux/jiffies.h:257:31: warning: "nasys_clock_freq" is not defined /home/zero/nios2-linux/linux-2.6/include/linux/jiffies.h:257:31: division by zero in# if /home/zero/nios2-linux/linux-2.6/include/linux/jiffies.h:257:31: warning: "nasys_clock_freq" is not defined /home/zero/nios2-linux/linux-2.6/include/linux/jiffies.h:257:31: warning: "nasys_clock_freq" is not defined /home/zero/nios2-linux/linux-2.6/include/linux/jiffies.h:257:31: division by zero in# if /home/zero/nios2-linux/linux-2.6/include/linux/jiffies.h:257:31: division by zero in# if make: *** Error 1 make: *** Error 2 make: *** Error 2 make: Leaving directory `/home/zero/nios2-linux/linux-2.6' make: *** Error 1  It works fine with v8.1 ptf files.

as far as I remember, the warning  

  --- Quote Start ---  "nasys_clock_freq" is not defined  --- Quote End ---   means that your system.ptf is missing a full-featured timer

Hey thanks! It works now. I can confirm v9.0 works in Nios2-Linux. 

 Ill update the wiki when I have time.
