FreeRTOS Task List Debug Crash on EvBoard LPC54608

nicolaskorten — Thu, 11 May 2017 15:56:56 GMT

I get this error while debugging a freertos project. Breakpoints are working well, but when I go to the FreeRTOS menu and click on any button (task list, queue list, timer list or heap usage) the debugger crashes as follows:

I read this could be a power issue, but same happens when powered with a 1.5A supply.

I am using the LPC54608 evaluation board om13092 and the on board debugger on MCUXpresso.

Thank you for ideas!

Hi nicolaskorten,

Thank you for your interest in NXP Semiconductor products and the opportunity to serve you.

I was wondering if you can demonstrate the steps, then I can replicate the issue on my site.

It will help me to figure out the root cause of this issue.
Have a great day,
TIC

Hi jeremyzhou‌, thank you for your reply!

I made a step by step guide to reproduce:

1- Create new TouchGFX project - leave it empty and generate code

2- Open the Touchgfx project in Mcuxpresso:

3- Run Debug 'application' from quick access menu:

4- Select the debug probe and click ok

5- Click run to jump over the first breakpoint and start the freertos tasks. Then suspend and goto FreeRTOS -> Task List. Get this error:

Versions Used:

MCUXpresso:

Freertos:

TouchGFX:

Thank you very much for your help!

Hi nicolaskorten,

Thanks for your reply.

I will test on my board later and I'd highly recommend you to seek the help from the TouchGFX Help Center too.
Have a great day,

Thank you for your quick reply jeremyzhou‌! I posted the Issue on the TouchGFX Help Center too and will post an answer here if it is resolved overthere :smileyhappy: I'll wait for your comments too when you test it. Thank you very much!

Hi nicolaskorten,

I'd already contacted with the AE team from TouchGFX, and they doesn't replicate the issue on the IAR IDE.

However I can't setup the NXP MCUXpresso by following the TouchGFX NXP LPC54608 Board Support Package - Installation V1.5.

After I edited the NXP_SDK_PATH and the TGFX_PATH, I compiled the application demo later, however some errors had been raised.

So I was wondering if you can share the sequence of setup the MCUXpresso.

I'm looking forward to your reply.
Have a great day,
TIC

Hello jeremyzhou‌, thank you for your reply. I also followed the instructions in "TouchGFX NXP LPC54608 Board Support Package - Installation V1.5" - so my .project file contains this:

[...]

<variable>
<name>NXP_SDK_PATH</name>
<value>file:/C:/Users/NK/mcuxpresso/SDKPackages/SDK_2.2_LPCXpresso54608</value>
</variable>
<variable>
<name>TGFX_PATH</name>
<value>file:/C:/touchgfx/4.8.0</value>
</variable>

[...]

I get the same error than you when I try to compile the Sprinklers demo. But after adjusting the SDK Path in the .project file in the sprinklers demo too, I get another error:

Texts/TypedTextDatabase.hpp: No such file or directory

It is not so important for me that the demo does not compile... I'm still having the problem that I can't see the FreeRTOS tasks while debugging an application made with touchgfx designer, I get the debugger error I pasted in my earlier post.

Thank you for your time!
