CODECOMPOSER: Determining Code Offset and Data Offset for dynamic loading modules

Part Number: CODECOMPOSER
Other Parts Discussed in Thread: TMDSEMU110-U

Tool/software:

Hello,

I am using the following setup:

• Board: Beaglebone Black
• Debugger: TMDSEMU110-U
• OS: RTEMS 6
• IDE: Code Composer Studio Version 12.8.0.00012

Issue Description:

I am configuring dynamic loading modules and need to set the Code Offset and Data Offset correctly. I’ve obtained these offsets from the ELF file as shown below. However, even after entering them, the symbols appear as 0xffffffff. While I can debug the executable and see symbols in the debug window (Load Symbols), I can’t find the symbols when adding the dynamic loading modules (Add Symbols).

  "cfs_lib.elf.txt": {
    ".text": {
      "Type": "PROGBITS",
      "Address": "00000000",
      "Offset": "000034",
      "Size": "000798",
      "EntrySize": "00",
      "Flags": "AX",
      "Link": "0",
      "Info": "0",
      "Alignment": "4"
    },
    ".data": {
      "Type": "PROGBITS",
      "Address": "00000000",
      "Offset": "0007f7",
      "Size": "000000",
      "EntrySize": "00",
      "Flags": "WA",
      "Link": "0",
      "Info": "0",
      "Alignment": "1"
    }
  },

Question:

1. Am I using the correct offsets?
2. What could be causing the 0xffffffff issue?
3. Are there any additional steps I should take?

Thanks for your assistance!
