How to flash and debug GoldVIP for S32G3 package

Karthik_7 — Mon, 25 Mar 2024 05:58:25 GMT

How can I flash and debug the GoldVIP for S32G3 package? I've made some COM-related modifications using EB tresos and successfully generated configuration changes and build the software.

Now, I need guidance on flashing the software onto the S32G399 reference board and debugging it. Any procedure or documentation suggestions would be greatly appreciated. My primary objective is to flash and debug the software.

Hello,
Do i need to flash bootloader prior to this.

I need guidance on flashing the software onto the M7 core of S32G399 reference board and debugging it.

Hello, @Karthik_7

Thanks for the questions

From my understanding, you may need to flash the bootloader and/or application running on M core, correct me if any misunderstanding had.

An useful document for flashing the binaries is the AN13727, which could be downloaded from NXP.com, you may reference this document for the details.

Hope it helps.

Hello, @Karthik_7

Thanks for the feedback.

In general, it is not mandatory to create a bootloader before using the examples, you are able to try the examples directly.

But if you want to run the examples to sample the can-gw functionality, as described in chapter 7 of the "S32G Vehicle Integration Platform (GoldVIP) User Manual for S32G3", the bootloader is needed to load the application images (ARM Trusted Firmware for A53_0 and CAN-GW for Cortex-M7) sequentially from QSPI Flash.

Hello, @Karthik_7

Thanks for the feedback.

Generally speaking, the GoldVIP-S32G3-1.x.0-User-Manual is the main document for using demos in GoldVIP, the chapter 14 of it introduced the background and the operation steps on using the can-gw example, the M7 application binary that you generated is only part of the images used for demonstrate the use case. Simply only running it on M7 core cannot behaved as expected.

Would you mind sharing the GoldVIP version you used? I suggest reading the UM carefully first, and I will check if there are other more detailed document/guide for your further reference for this can-gw demo.

Best Regards

Hello @chenyin_h,

Thanks for the response.
I am using the below highlighted version.

Here my first intention is just to free run the can-gw SW on M7 cores, i am not focusing on over all use case currently.

for time being even executing it just from the RAM is okay for me then I can move to Nor Flash.

Thank you
