[En-Nut-Discussion] UART example for AT91SAM9260-EK

[Lasse Conrad]

Hi Alain

I am using:

Atmel's Evaluation board: AT91SAM9260-EK
Atmel's SAM-ICE Jtag debugger.


I download the software with the Atmel Sam-Ba 2.6 PC program.

I start by selecting the SDRAM Pane and executing the Enable SDRAM 100Mhz
script.

Then I download my program to SDRAM at address 0x20000000.

Then I start the program in the ARM processor with the "go 0x20000000"
command at the console in the Sam-Ba 2.6 program.

And FIRST after this do I start up the debugger.

My Segger J-link GDB server is running all the time.

I am using Eclipse for windows from Yagarto's home page.
http://www.yagarto.de/#download

I only have one command in the "initialize" commands for the debugger. 

target remote localhost:2331

Now the important part which I self was a bit slow to understand. :-P

Because I am running my program in SD-Ram and starting it with the Sam-Ba
tool then the debugger cannot follow it until after it is started. The
program is simply not there. /blush.


This means your break points must be in a part of the code where the
execution is sure to pass.

For example in the events.c code.

    /*
     * Endless loop in main thread.
     */
    for (;;) {
        putchar('M');    // <--- Add break point here.
        NutSleep(125);
    }


By the way, I have the Nut Os compiled with Build /platform [arm-gccdbg]. 

I hope this helps.

Best regards

Lasse

Hi Lasse,

Can you debug Nut/OS with JTAG in single step mode? We (Paulo Silva and 
me) are having trouble with that on a SAM9-L9260.

If anyone is able to do it, plase inform,
Alain
