AM2634: SIMPLELINK-OPENOCD

Part Number: AM2634

I am working with the AM263X-CC eval kit and would like to use OpenOCD. I have OpenOCD installed and modified the xds110.cfg file to satisfiy the prompt. 

Is there a available target script that I can use for debugging? 

At the end of the day I am trying to use the multicore debug features of the Cortex-Debug plugin for VSCode. marus25.cortex-debug

    Hi There,

    I do not think the AM263x supports the OPENOCD. To debug on AM263x, you have to use CCS at this point. Other IDEs may be added later.

    Hi Ming, thanks for the response. The AM263x-CC eval board contains XDS110 debugger, which is supported by openOCD.

    Hi There,

    Yes, the XDS110 may be supported by the OpenOCD, but I am not aware of any target script for AM263x.

    Can you elaborate the advantages of OpenOCD over CCS? If the advantages are compelling, we can certainly plan to support it in the near future.  

    Best regards,

    Ming

    Hi, Thanks. The main driver behind this is to be able to run an embedded Rust application on one of the cores. I'd like to implement standard real-time control application on one core (in C), and a cutting edge Rust webstack on another core for communication over websockets / grpc. The advantages of using Rust are open source libraries like tokio-tungstenite. The AM2xxx seem to be perfect candidates for Rust as they are are designed for both web connectivity and realtime control.

    Hi Ikellymo,

    Good suggestion! I have filed a feature request for this to the software team. Hopefully this feature will be added in the future.

    Best regards,
