Debugging on zedboard

zedboard is the Xilinx Zynq-7000 development board.

Requirements [TBC]:

  • OpenOCD
  • arm-none-eabi-gdb

Steps

TODO: discuss this with paul

  1. Set Zedboard boot mode to JTAG and connect debugging PC to zedboard JTAG and UART USB port. TODO: what is which port, use distinct name/add a graphic
  2. On PC connected to zedboard JTAG USB port:
openocd -f board/digilent_zedboard.cfg

Note: The board path is from the openocd tool, it is not a local path within this project.

If you have one around, load bitstream at startup (go get a coffee, takes time with onboard JTAG, blue LED lights up when done):

openocd -f board/digilent_zedboard.cfg -c "init" -c "pld load 0 system.bit"
  1. To use JTAG Boot for the OBSW, you first need to run the FSBL once.

On build PC (adapt IP if different from debugging PC) in the folder where you build the FSBL / in the fsbl-compiled repository/submodule folder:

arm-none-eabi-gdb fsbl.elf
>target extended-remote localhost:3333
>load
>cont
>^C^D^D

(Optional) Automate this run:

arm-none-eabi-gdb fsbl.elf -iex "target extended-remote localhost:3333" -ex "set pagination off" -ex "load" -ex "break FsblHandoffJtagExit" -ex "cont" -ex="set confirm off" -ex "exit"

It will exit after the Zynq is configured and ready to firmware.

Then load the actual OBSW, in the build (build_cli in the example above) folder run:

arm-none-eabi-gdb romeo-obsw
>target extended-remote localhost:3333
>load
>cont

Again, Command Line Interface (CLI) commands can be moved to the GNU Debugger (DGB) call. Also, a small function is used as marker to return from GDB if the mission code returns (should not happen in production but might be useful during testing).

arm-none-eabi-gdb romeo-obsw -iex "target extended-remote localhost:3333" -ex "set pagination off" -ex "load" -ex "break done" -ex "cont" -ex="set confirm off" -ex "exit"

_Consider removing the -ex "cont" to start the software manually when you have et up your serial monitor.

UART USB port should output something at 115200baud, (I use moserial to monitor).
