TMS570LC4357: Bootloader CAN and FreeRTOS

Part Number: TMS570LC4357

Hello, I've got a problem while running a program using FreeRTOS and loading it throught the bootloader. A program without FreeRTOS works perfectly, but when I use FreeRTOS in the application the program doesn't work. I'm able to load it but when I put the RUN command it doesn't work. What should I do? Thank you

Here you can find the application linker settings

An here there's the bootloader intvecs.asm

    Ok, after trying some solutions the working solution is:

    Modify the HL_sys_link.cmd of the APPLICATION like this:

    {
    VECTORS (X) : origin=0x00010020 length=0x00000020 vfill = 0xffffffff
    KERNEL (RX) : origin=0x00010040 length=0x00008000 vfill = 0xffffffff
    FLASH0 (RX) : origin=0x00018040 length=0x001F7FE0 vfill = 0xffffffff
    FLASH1 (RX) : origin=0x00210020 length=0x00200000 vfill = 0xffffffff
    STACKS (RW) : origin=0x08000000 length=0x00000800
    KRAM (RW) : origin=0x08000800 length=0x00000800
    RAM (RW) : origin=(0x08000800+0x00000800) length=(0x0007f800 - 0x00000800)
    /* USER CODE BEGIN (2) */
    /* USER CODE END */
    }
    /* USER CODE BEGIN (3) */
    /* USER CODE END */
    /*----------------------------------------------------------------------------*/
    XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX

    I had to recalculate the origin of the memory because of the offset of 0x00010020 fot the bootloader.

    So just start from 0x00010020 and then sum the lenght with Windows exadecimal calculator to find the next origin.

    Remeber to do vfill to avoid ECC errors.

    I didn't have to modify the SECTIONS.

     

    The next thing to do is to modify BOOTLOADER code

    This is HL_sys_intvecs.asm

    ; interrupt vectors

    svcEntry
    b #0x10018
    prefetchEntry
    b #0x10018
    XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX

    I modified the original one, changing to #0x10018 to redirect the varius things like interrupts, whatchdogs, FreeRTOS functions and so on

    It's working now, thank you
