Watchpoint Setting in Target code

Other Parts Discussed in Thread: TMS320C6416

Hi,

I'm using DSP TMS320C6416.

I'm facing some memory corruption issue where the code accesses some restricted memory region that puts the PCI bus in bad state. This prevents external master from accessing DSP memory, so DSP L2 memory dump cannot be taken in this scenario.

Since this DSP does not have memory protection or exception handling feature, i would like to explore setting "watchpoints" from target code (without using CCS), so that i can do halt/abort the CORE and avoid accessing the reserved region that in turn puts the PCI bus in bad state. This would allow extracting the DSP memory dump since the PCI bus would still be active. 

Is the watchpoint code plugin of CCS available? If so i can compile this as part of DSP image.

Any other suggestions?

Regards,

Justin
