Which CCS version would gave fesility to build and profile for the Cortex A8 Target (Supports Neon Instruction)
CCS 4.0 or 4.1 will satisfy this ?
Ki-Soo Lee said:Both CCS function profiling and also using the profile clock should be supported on A8
I was trying to get some profiling done using CCSv4 on an OMAP3 and I came across http://processors.wiki.ti.com/index.php/FAQ_-_CCSv4#Q:_What_targets_support_CCS_function_profiling.3F which does not list Cortex A8, so I was wondering if there was some way of getting A8 to support the profiler or clock?
On my end with CCS 4.1.2 the profiler comes up blank, and the clock function is grayed out which is more consistent with the wiki, though I may be doing something wrong.
Stretching the topic a bit, I also found something in the break point manager that is interesting, it lets you select a type called counter, which looks to show cycles, I was wondering if this could be used in its place? A developer I have been working with is using this and getting values that don't make sense (a count of 200 for a single NOP instruction in ISRAM) so I fear it may be broken.
