NON XIP / RT1172

[TM_MI]

Hello,

What are the steps to generate a fully non_xip application from any of the SDK examples ? I need to use it with a NAND Flash.

What I have so far:

Thanks,

TM

You just need to switch default XIP build to Non-XIP build under MCUX, below two blogs may be helpful to you.

Hello @jeremyzhou @jay_heng 

The issue that I have is that when am generating a hex file and try to flash using mcubootutility or Ozone segger it doesn't work.

The examples provided in the mcubootutility apps file work so am not sure what configuration am missing.

jay hang pointed out in another thread that the halt at 0x223104 is due to a security setup, however, when I use the example from mcubootutility led_blinky 0x0000a00.hex in Ozone segger I don't get this error.

Can you show me an example where you managed to boot, your linker file and memory organization?

Errors :

Ozone and Mcubootutility

Thanks,

TM

Hi，
Thanks for your reply.
Maybe you can try to use the tool to program the image, as I successfully made it on the MIMXRT1170-EVK board.

Have a great day,

Hello @jeremyzhou 

Thank you. We are happy with using mcubootutility as it work for us.

First Issue

We have a customized board. We don't use flexspi. We are able to verify our board with mcubootutility SEMC NAND. We used one of the example files from mcubootutility folder (led_blinky_0x00002000.srec) to verify the SEMC NAND.

Now, when we compile and generate a .hex/.s19 from mcuxpresso and try to use in mcubootutility it doesn't work.

Second issue

We also use Jtag to debug. We are unable to debug with jtag. We don't have a flexspi flash so processor always halt at 0x221304. We can communicate and even try to load using jtag but unfortunately nothing work. Jay Heng explained why this happen but we are looking for a solution.

Segger Ozone

We tried to use segger Ozone to debug from Jtag. We used our .hex or .hex examples from mcubootutility folder. As excepted we get the same 0x221304 problem.

We tried to change linker and memory configuration but it doesn't work.

Important

File name led_blinky_0x0000a000.hex is attached. This file we got from mcubootutility folder (apps).

This is the only file that worked with Segger Ozone.  

Please can you provide me with the configurations used to generate this file so we can use in our program ?

Thanks,

TM

Hi @TM_MI ,
Sorry for replying late.
I load either the led_blinky_0x00002000_iar.elf or led_blinky_0x0000a000_iar.elf in the Ozone, both of them can work well on the MIMXRT1170-EVK board actually.

Have a great day,
TIC

Hello @jeremyzhou ,

For the first problem, I managed to fix it by changing few things in the build settings. I can now use the hex file with mcubootutility SEMC NAND.

I tried to load elf file instead of a hex into Ozone and it is ok.

Thank you,
