Hi All,

We have tried to enable DEBUG print in U-boot.

We included #define DEBUG in include/common.h and also

we have tried to include #define DEBUG in include/configs/ti_am335x_common.h

Error Message what we got is same for both the thing,

common/built-in.o: In function `zm_dprintf':

u-boot/common/xyzModem.c:190: undefined reference to `vsprintf'
scripts/Makefile.spl:333: recipe for target 'spl/u-boot-spl' failed
make[1]: *** [spl/u-boot-spl] Error 1
Makefile:1382: recipe for target 'spl/u-boot-spl' failed
make: *** [spl/u-boot-spl] Error 2

How to enable DEBUG in U-boot for debugging purpose ?

Thanks in advance.

Hello Avinash,

Please, use the U-Boot from the latest Processor SDK. The defined DEBUG in include/configs/ti_am335x_common.h should not take any effect on AM572x platform.

Best regards,
Kemal

Hi Kemal,

I am using u-boot-2017.01+gitAUTOINC+9fd60700db-g9fd60700db from the latest SDK package. We are cross compiling for AM335x.

Can you compile it by the top makefile make u-boot. I can compile it from there with no issues.

Hi Kemal,

The compilation command i am using was,

1. export CC=/home/Avinash/gcc-linaro-6.3.1-2017.05-x86_64_arm-linux-gnueabihf/bin/arm-linux-gnueabihf-

2. make ARCH=arm CROSS_COMPILE=${CC} distclean

3. make ARCH=arm CROSS_COMPILE=${CC} am335x_evm_defconfig

4. make ARCH=arm CROSS_COMPILE=${CC}

I am getting the above mentioned error.

Do you need a Y modem support on that board? Type ARCH=arm make menuconfig and disable the SPL / TPL ---> [*] Support loading using Ymodem

Building u-boot for am335x will not work on the am57xx based Beagleboard-X15. You need to make am57xx_evm_defconfig for that board.
