Original question:

Viewing VFP Extension Registers

AM2432: View R5F VFP registers in CCS

Tony Tang

Part Number: AM2432

Tool/software:

Did not find VFP register in CCS register window, is it available? if not, why?

Otherwise I find a indirect way to view it, open the cortexR_VFP.xml to get the name of VFP register, type it in Expressions window, can view but inconvenient. 

There should be a way to import the  cortexR_VFP.xml to CCS to enable VFP register display, as the Debug_Register and System_Register sub register's name are same as that of file cortexR_Debug.xml and CortexR_System.xml. they should be imported from these files.

    Hi,

    To see the VFP registers from CCS in register view, please add the cortexR_VFP.xml file in the cortex_r5.xml located at path ${CCS}\ccs\ccs_base\common\targetdb\cpus\cortex_r5.xml.

    Please refer the below code.

    <instance href="..\Modules\cortexR\cortexR_VFP.xml" id="VFP_Registers" xml="cortexR_VFP.xml" xmlpath="..\Modules\cortexR" HW_revision="1.0" description="" requestor="Cortex_R5F" baseaddr="0" size="00" accessnumbytes="4" permissions="p"/>

    Please refer below image.

    After making the above changes, restart the CCS. You will now be able to see the registers from CCS.

    Regards,

    Tushar
