CCS/IWR1642BOOST: 1642-debug - add breakpoint

FENG TAO

Part Number: IWR1642BOOST
Other Parts Discussed in Thread: MMWAVE-SDK

Tool/software: Code Composer Studio

I have a problem that has been bothering me for a long time. When I debug the 1642 demo in CCS environment, if the program stops at the breakpoint and then returns to work, it will exit the sys/bios, like this:

**********************************************
Debug: Launching the Millimeter Wave Demo
**********************************************
Debug: MMWDemoMSS Launched the Initialization Task
Debug: MMWDemoMSS mmWave Control Initialization was successful
[C674X_0] Debug: MMWDemoDSS mmWave Control Initialization succeeded

xdc.runtime.Error.raise: terminating execution

I have tried the suggestion in https://e2e.ti.com/support/sensors/f/1023/t/802170?tisearch=e2e-sitesearch&keymatch=1642%20debug

First, change the optimization level to level 0 i.e. -O0 . Second, re-build the two ccs projects. But it still dose not work!

How can I solve it?

Hello,

You've not mentioned the MMWAVE-SDK version but I assume you are using SDK 2.1.0.4.

{module#8}: "../dss_main.c", line 345: error {id:0x10000, args:[0x818324, 0x818324]}
xdc.runtime.Error.raise: terminating execution

The trace prints the file and line no. where the exception occurred.

    /* Check if previous chirp processing has completed */
    if (gMmwDssMCB.dataPathContext.interFrameProcToken != 0)
    {
        MmwDemo_triggerDss2MssISR(MMWDEMO_DSS2MSS_FRAME_PROC_DEADLINE_MISS_EXCEPTION);
        DebugP_assert(0);
    }

As you can see from the code, this exception means that the previous frame was not completed and a new frame interrupt was received, hence MMWDEMO_DSS2MSS_FRAME_PROC_DEADLINE_MISS_EXCEPTION. (The comment above this line is a typo, it should say frame instead of chirp)

As you put a breakpoint and stopped execution, the processing for the current frame could not be completed and caused this exception as soon as you resumed the code.

Similarly, there is a chirp deadline exception at line 312 as shown below.

    /* Check if previous chirp processing has completed */
    if (gMmwDssMCB.dataPathContext.chirpProcToken != 0)
    {
        MmwDemo_triggerDss2MssISR(MMWDEMO_DSS2MSS_CHIRP_PROC_DEADLINE_MISS_EXCEPTION);
        DebugP_assert(0);
    }

You will need to comment out the code for both of these exceptions (comment the complete if blocks) and re-compile the code. After this, you should be able to debug the code in CCS.

Hello,

The MMWAVE-SDK version I used is 2.0.0.4. But it dose not matter. Your answer solves my question perfectly. Thanks!
