Unable to allocate more than 4KB of Contiguous Memory. ZCU111

Hi,
I’m developing an application using ZCU111 and PYNQ 2.6.0 image. I need to be able of allocate a Contiguous Memory Array in order to send data to an AXI DMA Controller Vivado IP. To achieve that I downloaded the PYNQ image from the official repository and then I followed the tutorial provided here (PS/PL Interfaces — Python productivity for Zynq (Pynq) v1.0) to send data from PS to PL and everything was fine.

When I try to allocate more than 4KB through the following command
input_buffer = xlnk.cma_array(shape(LENGTH,), dtype=np.uint32) where LENGTH is a number greater than 1000 I get an error and PYNQ crashes.

I found out that the error could be because the Linux Kernel wasn’t properly configured and I tried to rebuild the PYNQ Image using several modifications of the Device Tree without any success. In my last attempt, I found the following topic: ERROR downloading bitstream PYNQ OS for ZCU102, where Peter Ogden suggests to use the following node in the device tree:

reserved-memory {
		#address-cells = <2>;
		#size-cells = <2>;
		ranges;

		linux,cma {
			linux,cma-default;
			compatible = "shared-dma-pool";
			alloc-ranges = <0x0 0x0 0x0 0x7ff00000>;
			size = <0x0 0x20000000>;
			alignment = <0x0 0x2000>;
			reusable;
		};
	};

After a few hours, when the build process finished I wrote the image into a sd card and I got the following output from the serial terminal:

Why I can’t allocate more than 4kB of Contiguous Memory with the cma_array method? Is there a better way to achieve data transfers between PS and PL?

Thanks in advance for your help,
Kind regards.

When you were first attempting to allocate memory was this on the ZCU111 2.6.0 image available for download or did you create your own? The image we’ve made should work without modification so I’m intrigued as what’s going on. Can you create a script that allocates memory and run it on the command line so we can get a more complete log of the failure?

In 2.6 we also recommend using pynq.allocate rather than Xlnk as we’re moving away from Xlnk in a future release (it’s not been maintained for 5 years).
