OpenOCD Problem i.MX6

Hello,

i have a "SABRE Board for Smart Devices Based on the i.MX 6 Series". And I tried to get OpenOCD to work with it.


This is my OpenOCD configuration file for the i.MX6.

# Freescale i.MX6 series single/dual/quad core processor

if { [info exists CHIPNAME] } {

  set _CHIPNAME $CHIPNAME

} else {

  set _CHIPNAME imx6

}

# CoreSight Debug Access Port

if { [info exists DAP_TAPID] } {

  set _DAP_TAPID $DAP_TAPID

} else {

  set _DAP_TAPID 0x4ba00477

}

jtag newtap $_CHIPNAME dap -irlen 4 -ircapture 0x01 -irmask 0x0f \

  -expected-id $_DAP_TAPID

# SDMA / no IDCODE

jtag newtap $_CHIPNAME sdma -irlen 4 -ircapture 0x00 -irmask 0x0f

# System JTAG Controller

if { [info exists SJC_TAPID] } {

  set _SJC_TAPID SJC_TAPID

} else {

  set _SJC_TAPID 0x0191c01d

}

set _SJC_TAPID2 0x2191c01d

jtag newtap $_CHIPNAME sjc -irlen 5 -ircapture 0x01 -irmask 0x1f \

  -expected-id $_SJC_TAPID -expected-id $_SJC_TAPID2

# GDB target: Cortex-A9, using DAP, configuring only one core

# Base addresses of cores:

# core 0 - 0x82150000

# core 1 - 0x82152000

# core 2 - 0x82154000

# core 3 - 0x82156000

set _TARGETNAME $_CHIPNAME.cpu.0

target create $_TARGETNAME cortex_a8 -chain-position $_CHIPNAME.dap \

  -coreid 0 -dbgbase 0x82150000

# some TCK cycles are required to activate the DEBUG power domain

jtag configure $_CHIPNAME.sjc -event post-reset "runtest 100"

proc imx6_dbginit {target} {

  # General Cortex A8/A9 debug initialisation

  cortex_a8 dbginit

}

# Slow speed to be sure it will work

jtag_rclk 1000

$_TARGETNAME configure -event reset-start { jtag_rclk 1000 }

$_TARGETNAME configure -event reset-assert-post "imx6_dbginit $_TARGETNAME"

$_TARGETNAME configure -event gdb-attach { halt }

I am using the openocd-usb-hs adapter from embedded-projects. This is the output after starting OpenOCD.

I have "solved" the Problem! I removed the RESET wire between openocd-usb and the target board. Now i have basic jtag access.

Cheers

Can you share your board config file? I am having trouble setting up the DCD settings to R/W from SDRAM

I have issues with OpenOcd and the i.mx6. I have removed the reset line from the JTAG adapter and I get basic JTAG functionality. My issue is when I have a new board with no software programmed when I type "halt" I get -

 

> halt

number of cache level 1

imx6.cpu.0 cluster 0 core 0 multi core

target state: halted

target halted in Thumb state due to debug-request, current mode: Supervisor

cpsr: 0x600001f3 pc: 0x00000fc4

MMU: disabled, D-Cache: disabled, I-Cache: disabled

Where the processor always halts in thumb mode.

Has anyone overcome this issue and has the correct reset setup for the openocd config files so that the target is halted in arm mode ?

If I have programmed u-boot into flash the processor will halt correctly in arm mode. However I need the board to halt correctly before u-boot is programmed.

Thanks

Doug.

Hi MaTT,

could you share your experience with OpenOCD and iMX6?

I've got the same problem but in my case it doesn't work even without RESET pin. Moreover I can't see any data on the JTAG pins with logic analizer when using imx6.cfg script. But the data is present when I change config script to stm32f103.

Regards,

Dmitriy

Other Question..

Where can I find the required information, which are used in the OpenOCD config to check if they are right. Is there a Document?

_DAP_TAPID 0x4ba00477

_SJC_TAPID 0x0191c01d

_SJC_TAPID2 0x2191c01d

irlen

...

Please help me!
