MCU-PLUS-SDK-AM263X: Bug Report genimage.py inside of the makefile_ccs_bootimage_gen error

Austin Trudeau

Part Number: MCU-PLUS-SDK-AM263X
Other Parts Discussed in Thread: SYSCONFIG

Tool/software:

When building my project, I run into the following error on the following dependency versions:

Dependency	Versions
SysConfig	1.23+
MCU+ SDK for AM263x	10.2.0.13

This error was not present on sysconfig 1.22 or am263x version 10.1

The error is pretty minor and is shown below:

The argument by default is --max_segment_size
Updating this to --max-segment-size, fixes the issue.

This error occurs on default example projects as well.

Hi Austin,

The segemt size arguments were introduced due to OTFA(On the fly authentication and encryption support). Do you still see the issue or is it resolved.

Hello Nilabh Anand, Thanks for responding. In my post I mentioned the fix for this, this is an issue with sysconfig and am263x.

The new version breaks previous versions due to the argument --max_segment_size changing its preferred argument to --max-segment-size, utilizing dashes instead. However, the auto generated makefile for genimage.py still had --max_segment_size as its generated argument. This causes the error shown in the image above.

I posted this to show people how to fix it, if they search for the error.
