According to your example code in spexms, the call to spu is asynchronous currently, but synchronous calls should be also provided as another choice of programming model/pattern. I think the complete I/O API model should be a good reference, in simple, it calls your handle funtion with the parameter...

Here are the packages I installed aptitude search ppu- i ppu-binutils - PPU assembler, linker and binary utilities i ppu-g++ - PPU C++ compiler i ppu-gcc - PPU C compiler i ppu-gdb - Combined debugger for Linux on Cell BE p ppu-gfortran - PPU Fortran compiler p ppu-gnat - PPU Ada compiler i ppu-sysr...

It works, type

aptitude search ppu-
and
aptitude search spu-

and you will have a list of ppu/spu related packages, and I am sure which ones should be installed, :D

unsolo, it's a great idea to make this project. I believe in homebrews game programming, the spe scheduling should be setup manually for best efficiency. But under linux, it is another case, linux is a general proposed OS, it is necessary to have such a scheduling mechanism to make the spe code exec...

Thanks IronAvatar. I'll try your commands when I back home tonight.

you used the toolchain for otheros, which has neither support for libc nor newlib. You may only be able to use the toolchain for compiling kernels or the otheros demo. I downloaded it from http://ps2dev.org/ps3/Tools/Toolchain/ps3toolchain-20070626.tar.bz2, I also tried the svn one, is it only for ...
