S32G3: debugging Linux with s32 debug probe

[s153022]

Dear NXP Support Team,

We have recently purchased the S32G-VNP-RDB3 Board and have successfully compiled the NXP Auto Yocto Linux BSP v38.0. We can run Linux and boot to the Linux prompt without issues. Additionally, we have purchased the S32 Debug Probe.

Our current objective is to debug the Linux kernel, ATF (Arm Trusted Firmware), and U-Boot using the debugger. We seek guidance on how to connect the debugger to these components, set breakpoints within the kernel, ATF, and U-Boot code, and navigate through the debugging process.

Could you kindly direct us to a comprehensive guide or provide instructions that cover the connection of the debugger, setting of breakpoints, and stepping through the debugger?

Thank you for your assistance.

Best regards,
