Tool/software:
Hi,
I face some issues when debugging using XDS110 Debug Probe and the following setup:
Flash: IS25LX064 (same as at eval boards just with 64mb ram instead of 256mb)
As SW tools I am using:
CCS 12.8.1.00005 & 20.2.0.12__1.8.0
SDK 10_00_00_35
Uniflash 9.2.0.5300
Bootmode: Octal Read Mode
I basically have four Debug related questions:
- Let's suppose I've got a running MCU, and want to check its state with the debug probe while it is running. Can I do that without resetting the device? When I start a debug session it either starts at the beginning of the main. I've followed this guide so far: How to debug a program without a project in Code Composer Studio
- Now when I launch the debugging session as in the linked video above, I'll face the following issues:
- When I use the Restart or CPU Reset I will be stuck in the HwiP as shown here:

- When I use the System Reset I will be stuck in the Core stack as shown here:

- So basically my question is, how can I use Restart/CPU Reset/System Reset without being stuck in some kind of deadlock and without restarting the debug session?
- When I use the Restart or CPU Reset I will be stuck in the HwiP as shown here:
- What is the difference between Restart, CPU Reset and System Reset?
- How to reliably start a debug session at the reset address instead of the beginning of the main function?
I'm facing the same issues with both stated versions of CCS.
Best regards
Norbert
