CCS/TDA2PXEVM: link warning #10247-D

user4699607

Part Number: TDA2PXEVM

Tool/software: Code Composer Studio

Hello,

I am using CCS v8 on PC Windows7 targetting to XDS560v2 STM Traveler debugger from Spectrum Digital and TDA2Px EVM with Fusion application board.

I just want to test that a source code can be debugged on any processor in TDA2Px board through JTAG debugger at first. After succeeding the test, I would like to go further using real code.

But, I am lost from the beginning.

On CCS v8, I made "hello world" project, did target configuration and was enable to compile the project.

I got the following messages from the "Build Project" menu.

**** Build of configuration Debug for project test_cortex_m ****

It seems that linker command file is not defined at all from the warning #7-D. But, I cannot find any information on linker command file or how to handle the memory allocation on target processor.

How to get rid of above warning messages?

Anyway the compilation is done with some warnings. So I tried to run the code on M4 in TDA2Px board through "Connect Target" menu in Debug window.

I got error messages saying:

Cortex_M4_IPU1_C0: Error connecting to the target: (Error -1170 @ 0x0) Unable to access the DAP. Reset the device, and retry the operation. If error persists, confirm configuration, power-cycle the board, and/or try more reliable JTAG settings (e.g. lower TCLK). (Emulation package 8.0.27.9)
CS_DAP_IPU_1_C0: Error: (Error -242 @ 0x0) A router subpath could not be accessed. The board configuration file is probably incorrect. (Emulation package 8.0.27.9)

How to solve this error?

Thank you in advance.

I need an information on how to make linker command files for processors on TDA2Px board like Cortex A15, M4, DSP, IPU and EVE, and how to include linker command file into Linker. Thanks.

There is some information on linker command files here: processors.wiki.ti.com/.../Linker_Command_File_Primer

I am going to move this post into the automotive forum as the team there should be able to provide some example files.

Regards,
John

Hello,

First, you will need to install the device support. It will bring in the gels scripts which will initialize the cores at target connect. Automotive device support can be downloaded from here: processors.wiki.ti.com/.../Device_support_files

I have attached a TDA2x linker file here in this thread: e2e.ti.com/.../2271486

Let us know if that helps,

thanks,
Alex

Hello,

We haven't heard back from you, I'm assuming you were able to resolve your issue.
If not, just post a reply below (or create a new thread if the thread gets locked due to time-out).

Thanks,
Alex

Hi Alex,

Anyhow, I succeeded to compile, link and run the hello_world code at a15 and dsp respectively. Thank you for your help.

Now, what I really want to do is to run image capturing scenario of user case under CCS environment in Windows.

Mostly codes are developing under Linux environment, but I would like to do it under CCS in Windows.

The user cases are using very complex and hierarchical makefiles. Thus it is very difficult to understand the structure and use those makefiles in CCS.

I tried to make project file of null_src_display user case in CCS, since the user case looks like very simple, but the compilation of the project I made is failed due to so many errors.

Is there any way to utilize Linux makefiles in CCS environment directly? It will be very very helpful if you can provide a detailed example or procedure.

Thank you.
