Hi,

I am using IMXRT1170 board and getting bus fault while running my application with debug log error A precise data access error has occurred (CFSR.PRECISERR, BFAR)

Hi @Nagaveni ,

Thank you for your interest in the NXP MIMXRT product, I would like to provide service for you.

From your description, it is related to the SDRAM, please check your used SDRAM, make sure it can support the size upto:0x86000000

As your issue is caused by the 0x86000000.

Please check it at first.

BTW, you also can try disable the cache, whether still have issues or not.

Any updated information, please kindly let me know.

Best Regards,

Kerry

Hi kerry,

Thanks for the response,

1.we are using 1Gbit size of SDRAM with base address of 0x80000000,So there is no issue with address

2. Disabling the cache :

.1)Removing DATA_SECTION_IS_CACHEABLE preprocessor

2)Making DATA_SECTION_IS_CACHEABLE=0

3)by calling the SCB_DisableDCache() function in both SBL and Application

I tried above methods to disable the cache, I am still getting the bus fault (A precise data access error has occurred ). Please let me know is there any other way to disable the cache and mention which cache should I disable.

3. I am using XIP_BOOT_HEADER_DCD_ENABLE=1 preprocessor to initialize the SDRAM in the Bootloader and getting the fault at particular buffer __FILE_FIRMWARE_BUFFER__ .

please let me know what is the difference between XIP_BOOT_HEADER_XMCD_ENABLE=1 and XIP_BOOT_HEADER_DCD_ENABLE=0 and which one should I use for SDRAM initialization along with SBL .

Thanks In Advance

Hi @Nagaveni ,

Thanks for your updated information.

Do you test your SDRAM stress or not?

I mean, check all your SDRAM-related addresses, and make sure all the SDRAM address write and read can pass the stress testing. This is important.

You can refer to this blog:

https://www.cnblogs.com/henjay724/p/14564390.html

About your question:XIP_BOOT_HEADER_XMCD_ENABLE=1 and XIP_BOOT_HEADER_DCD_ENABLE=0

In fact, it is two method DCD, one use the XMCD to do the SDRAM initialization, another use the DCD, both method can be used. Your situation is using the XMCD, I think it is OK to use.

You also can try the DCD method, disable the XMCD, whether any improvement or not.

Best Regards,

Kerry

Hi Kerry,
I have already done the stress test and able read and write to the address which I mentioned (present in linker).
I have tested below scenarios.
1) when I do it XIP_BOOT_HEADER_XMCD_ENABLE=1 and XIP_BOOT_HEADER_DCD_ENABLE=0 in the SBL, I am unable to execute the application due to bus faults because of improper initialization of SDRAM.
2) when I tried XIP_BOOT_HEADER_DCD_ENABLE=1 and XIP_BOOT_HEADER_XMCD_ENABLE=0 in the SBL I am able to execute the application normally, when I added __FILE_FIRMWARE_BUFFER__ = 0x84800000 buffer in the linker unable to execute the application due to bus fault,
Please let me know where it is causing the problem.

Thanks In Advance

Hi @Nagaveni ,

Thanks so much for your information.

From your description, the XMCD Still lack the SDRAM configuration, but the DCD configuration is completed. The XMCD allows the boot ROM code to configure the SDRAM connected to the SEMCcontroller, it is used to simplify the external RAM enablement.

Please check this PPT which I write:

To the 0x84800000 buffer, when you test the stress, this address write and read also works, right?

So, can you do a simple test for this special address, I mean, these address:

0x84800000 buffer, 0x86000000 buffer

Eg. you use the helloworld in the SDK, add your DCD code, then in the helloworld, to access the 0x84800000 buffer, 0x86000000 buffer, Any issues or not?

If this method no issues, then your SDRAM totally work, we need to check your app detail situation.

Please test it, then any updated information, kindly let me know.

Best Regards,

kerry
