The S32 Debugger included within the S32 Design Studio for S32 Platform IDE provides the capability to access the flash programming capabilities of the S32 Debug Probe via GTA command line and the GDB. This instruction details the steps to perform flash programming of the S32R45 EVB via the JTAG interface with the S32 Debug Probe.   Note: currently only QSPI flashing is supported.   Preparation Install S32 Design Studio IDE  Install the Development Package for the device you are debugging. In this case, the S32R4xx development package. This is important as the S32 Debugger support within it contains the device-specific Python scripts required for initialization of the cores.    Setup the hardware Confirm the setup of the S32R45 evaluation board.  Confirm the JTAG connection. The S32R45 evaluation board supports both 10- and 20- pin JTAG connections. Both are supported by the S32 Debugger and S32 Debug Probe. Connect the power supply cable Setup the S32 Debug Probe Connect the S32 Debug Probe to the evaluation board via JTAG cable. Refer to the S32 Debug Probe User Manual for installation instructions. Use the JTAG connection as was confirmed in the previous step. Connect the S32 Debug Probe to the host PC via USB OR via Ethernet (via LAN or directly connected, and configured for static IP address) and power supply connected to USB port. Launch S32 Design Studio for S32 Platform Create new or open existing project and check that it successfully builds. If creating a new project, be sure the S32 Debugger is selected in the New Project Wizard.   Procedure Launch GTA server. From command prompt or Windows File Explorer run the command:  {S32DS Install Path}\S32DS\tools\S32Debugger\Debugger\Server\gta\gta.exe Should see a window appear like this:   Ensure Environment Variable for Python is set. From command prompt, run the command:   set PYTHONPATH={S32DS Install Path}\S32DS\build_tools\msys32\mingw32\lib\python2.7;{S32DS Install Path}\S32DS\build_tools\msys32\mingw32\lib\python2.7\site-packages   Start GDB. In a command window, run the command: Windows OS: {S32DS Install Path}\S32DS\tools\gdb-arm\arm32-eabi\bin\arm-none-eabi-gdb-py.exe (for arm32) OR {S32DS Install Path}\S32DS\tools\gdb-arm\arm64-eabi\bin\aarch64-none-elf-gdb-py.exe (for arm64) Linux OS: arm-none-eabi-gdb-py A (gdb) prompt should now be displayed in the command window:     Configure the EVB's Boot Mode switches for Serial Boot.

When a new application project is created using the New Project Wizard, it is possible to select the debugger to be used. This results in the associated debugger configurations being created within the new project. But what if support for multiple debuggers is required or it is desired to switch to a different debugger? There are easy ways to resolve this. One is as simple as creating a new debug configuration. Another method is by creating new application project, selecting the new debugger to be supported. Then either repurposing the associated debug configuration or duplicating then modifying the debug configuration to support instead the previously existing project. This minimizes the effort by benefiting from the automation of the New Project Wizard.   Detailed below are the steps to add a new debug configuration.  Create A New S32 Debugger Configuration Load the existing project. For this demonstration, the SDK project ‘hello_world_s32v234’ will be used. Select the project so it appears highlighted in blue. Notice that the other project, ‘New_App_Project’, is bold text. This is because the main.c file open in the editor window to the right is the currently selected source file and is from this project. This has no effect on the process detailed in this document. Check that the existing project has been build and the executable is present. If the executable is not present, then an error will be displayed within the Debug Configurations menu and the executable file will need to be selected in a later additional step after it has been created. Open the Debug Configurations menu. Run -> Debug Configurations   Now select the Debugger Group for which you wish to create the new configuration. In this case, we will select ‘S32 Debugger’. Next, click ‘New Launch Configuration’ Now a new Debug Configuration has been created for your project and for the S32 Debugger. Most of the fields are already completed for you. Select the Debugger tab to see the source of the error message. The error message indicates ‘Specify Device and Core’. So click on ‘Select device and core’. Now expand the lists until the Device and Core are visible. Select the correct core for your project. In the demonstration example, the correct Device and Core are ‘S32V234’ and ‘M4’, respectively. Click OK, when done. If you have a debug probe connected, it may have been detected. If not, the Debug Probe Connection section will need to be completed. Now select the ‘Common’ tab to setup the storage location for this new Debug Configuration. Select ‘Shared file’ and then ‘Browse…’ Expand the lists until ‘Project_Settings/Debugger’ is open. Select ‘Debugger’, then click OK. Now the basic debug configuration settings are complete. It is now ready to be used and the Debug button could be clicked to start debug. Otherwise, you may have more customizations to make, such as for Attach Mode. Repurpose S32 Debugger Configuration From A New Project Create new project New -> S32DS Application Project New Project Wizard, processor and toolchain page Enter a project name Select the device and core to match the existing project If necessary, select the toolchain to match the existing project Click Next New Project Wizard, cores and parameters page Select the number of cores to match the existing project Select the debugger, S32 Debugger If necessary, select other parameters to match the existing project Click Finish   Open existing project which does not already have the S32 Debugger debug configurations (for this demonstration, we will use the hello_world_s32v234 example project from the S32 SDK) Copy debug configurations and modify settings to adapt to existing project Run -> Debug Configurations... Debug Configurations window Within the S32 Debugger grouping, select the debug configuration for the new project which corresponds to the build configuration and core of the existing project Change the name of the debug configuration. Change the portion of the name containing the project name to match the name of the existing project. Main tab Project field Click Browse... Select existing project C/C++ Application Click Search Project... Select the Elf file Common tab Save as field Click Browse... Select {existing_project_name}\Project_Settings\Debugger Debugger tab, Debug Probe Connection Setup connection parameters Click Apply Repeat as needed for all core/build config options The existing project now has the S32 Debugger configurations and is ready for debug with the S32 Debug Probe.

The S32 Debugger included within the S32 Design Studio for S32 Platform IDE provides the capability to access the flash programming capabilities of the S32 Debug Probe via the S32 Debugger.   Note: currently only QSPI flashing is supported.   Preparation Install S32 Design Studio IDE  Install the Development Package for the device you are debugging. In this case, the S32R4xx development package. This package is important as the S32 Debugger support component contains the device-specific Python scripts required for initialization of the cores.   Open the application project from which the flash image will be generated. Follow the steps in HOWTO: Generate S-Record/Intel HEX/Binary file , selecting the 'Raw Binary' option. Build the project, generating the binary executable. This will be our application binary input to the IVT Tool. The IVT Tool must be used to generate the BLOB image which can be programmed to flash memory device and loaded to the RAM by the BootROM. Follow the steps in HOWTO: Use IVT Tool To Create A BLOB Image S32R45. The resulting BLOB image file is what can be flashed to the device.   Procedure Open Debug Configuration menu Select 'S32 Debugger Flash Programmer', then right-click and select New. Enter an name for the new configuration and click Add... to add the file to be flashed. Click Browse... to select the project from the workspace where the application binary is located Select the project and click OK By default, the ELF file is found. Click Search in project to select the binary file. Select the .bin file and click OK Now we must enter the base address. Typically, this could be 0, but you may have other requirements. Click OK. Now we are ready to configure the debugger connection settings. Click on the Debugger tab. Starting from the top and working our way down, click on Select device. Select the device and click OK The correct Initialization script will automatically be set. Set the Debug Probe Connection settings to match your setup. When done, click Apply To start the flashing, click Debug Flashing progress will be displayed. When complete, the Debug perspective will show at terminated thread.   Happy flashing with GDB! Note, to debug this application since it will be subsequently started by the BootROM: use 's32r45_attach.py' in the Initialization script field on the debugger tab of the Debug Configurations menu Make the following adjustments on the Startup tab within the Debug Configurations menu: Uncheck "Load image" Check “Set program counter at:” and enter the value “Reset_Handler”

Before After 16) Using the method detailed in steps 8 - 10, create the example project 'isp_sonyimx224_csi_dcu'. Take from this project the file 'isp_sonyimx224_csi_dcu/A53_src/main.cpp' and use it to replace the file 'ISP_ISP_Generic_demo/A53_src/main.cpp' in the current project. Then make the following modifications:  On line 36, change <#include "mipi_simple_c.h"> to <#include "isp_generic_c.h">. On line 303, change <gpGraph_mipi_simple> to <gpGraph> AND <gGraphMetadata_mipi_simple> to <gGraphMetadata> On line 330, change <FDMA_IX_FastDMA_Out_MIPI_SIMPLE> to <FDMA_IX_ISP_OUTPUT>. Please see C:\NXP\S32DS.3.1\S32DS\software\VSDK_S32V2_RTM_1_3_0\s32v234_sdk\docs\drivers\SDI_Software_User_Guide.pdf for details on what this code is for. 17) In Project Explorer, right-click on "...\A53_gen\src\isp_process.cpp" and select Build path -> Remove from -> A53 18) Select 'ISP_ISP_Generic_demo:A53' in the Project Explorer panel, then Build for A53 19) Run it remotely on the target using the method fromHOWTO: Create S32V234 Cortex-A53 Linux Project in S32DS . Should get results similar to this:

PE Micro is not able erase unused FLASH block - typically if your application resist in Large block and Low/Mid block is used for data storage. As a workaround you can flash empty s-record into desired area.  Create new empty project for MPC5777C for flashing custom .srecord Copy empty s-record (in attachment) into project folder. If you need different address range or s-record values - feel free modify attached python script and generate your own s-record.  Open debug configuration and modify C/C++ Application to empty s-record Add custom flash algorithm nxp_mpc5777c_1x32x64k_eeprom_highspeed.pcp via Debug -> Advanced Options. Scripts are lcated in [S32DS_INSTALL_DIR]\eclipse\plugins\com.pemicro.debug.gdbjtag.ppc_1.7.3.201803261737\win32\gdi\P&E\ Start debug session. You can check if memory is rewritten properly (in this case I write zeroes to Low/Mid block): 

Condition:  I am trying FreeRTOS using S32K118 EVB and run in DEBUG mode. When I set the break point in vTaskDelay and press Resume for the first time, there is a smooth stop at the break point. The second time I press Resume, the debugger should enter the same break point again, but there is no response. Then I press Suspend and can't press Resume again, at this point I can only leave. However, I am free to run this project with no problem, what's wrong? Analysis: This is due to an access of DDR memory region which is not initialized by default project settings. Solution: To resolve it, a macro initializing the DDR memory should be selected to run at the beginning of a debug session. A user should go to Advanced Options dialog and check "Enable initialization script". Our DDR init macros can be found at the following location within S32DS3.2 layout: eclipse\plugins\com.pemicro.debug.gdbjtag.pne_4.2.8.201909091700\win32\gdi\P&E\supportFiles_ARM\NXP\S32Vxxx\S32V234M100_DDR3_EVB29288.mac. Please note that the type of the macro might depend on the revision of the board and S32V23x device one is working with. I am also attaching a picture of debug configuration and Advanced Options dialog with all the settings in place.

In this document, we show the steps to use the New Project Wizard to create a new application project for APEX2, ISP, or both.   1. Launch S32DS for Vision 2. Select 'S32DS Application Project' 3. Enter a name for the project 4. Select the 'A53 APEX2/ISP Linux' processor option 5. Click Next 6. Select the APEX2/ISP options you need.       a. APEX2 programming - will add support to your project for an APEX2 application, you need this for any new APEX2 project       b. APEX2 visual modeling - will create a separate project for your APEX2 program diagram, you need this to connect your APEX2 graph diagrams together. But you could also create it separately later. The APEX graph diagram must be created separately with another New Project Wizard.       c. ISP programming - will add support to your project for an ISP application, you need this for any new ISP project       d. ISP visual modeling - will create a separate project for your ISP data flow diagram, you will not need this if you plan to use an existing graph diagram. This can also be created later.       e. ISP static sequencer - by default, a dynamic sequencer is generated from your graph diagram, enable this to generate a static sequencer instead. This can be set/changed later in the Emit Configurations. 7. Click Finish 8. You now have a project or set of projects for development on the S32V234.

Migration guide You can use a project that was created in an earlier version of S32 Design Studio for Power Architecture 2.1, but it requires changes according to the new product directory structure. The following explains how to import and configure your project. Click File > Import... > General > Existing Projects into Workspace, then click Next. Click Browse... and browse to the project location, click OK, select the Copy projects into workspace option, then click Finish. If the Problems view displays the following warning: "The hardware settings required for project not found", right-click it and select Quick Fix on the context menu. Select the project from the Resource list and click Finish. Specify the Family, Device and Core settings. Click OK. For the EWL source code debugging, open the debug configuration settings, switch to the Source tab, select Path Mapping: EWL and click Edit. Update the e200_ewl2 location: Compilation Path: e200_ewl2 Local file system path: <s32ds_for_power_dir>\S32DS\build_tools\e200_ewl2 Depending on the project type, update the following environment variables and file locations. For projects with the SPT tools: open the project settings, click C/C++ Build > Settings > SPT Assembler. Update the SPT include files location: "${SPT_TOOLCHAIN_DIR}/inc" for the SPT1 tools, "${SPT2_TOOLCHAIN_DIR}/inc" for the SPT2 tools, and "${SPT2.5_TOOLCHAIN_DIR}/inc" for SPT2.5 accordingly. For projects with the attached PEx SDK: after you import the project, the path validation notification appears. Click Yes to open the S32 SDK Specific properties page and update SDK path (click Browse and navigate to the <s32ds_for_power_dir>/S32DS/software/<sdk_name> folder). If you import the project example, additionally open the project settings, click C/C++ Build > Build Variables and update the S32_SDK_PATH value: ${eclipse_home}/../S32DS/software/<sdk_name>. For projects with the attached FreeMaster or AMMCLIB SDKs: open the project settings, click C/C++ Build > Settings and update the SDK paths on the following pages: Standard S32DS C/C++ Compiler > Includes Standard S32DS C/C++ Linker > Libraries Standard S32DS Assembler > General For the FreeMaster SDK project, additionally navigate to the project folder, open the .project file, and update the linkedResources locations. If some errors and warnings still occur, try to close and reopen your project, or restart S32DS for Power Architecture.
