How do you configure CCS for AM335x to log EDMA events to ETB?

Hello CCS forum:

How do you configure CCS for AM335x to log EDMA events to ETB?

This is a follow up question along the lines from this thread: Timeframe for availability of CToolslib and STMLib for the AM335x?

Any feedback or input is welcomed and appreciated!

thanks again!

  • Paul,

    I haven't set an EDMA event, but the first step would be to go to menu Tools --> Hardware Trace Analyzer --> Custom System Trace. From that point, you leave the standard Transport Type as ETB and click on the Button Advanced Settings.

    From that point you can add a trigger type and configure its settings to match the peripheral (Subsystem Type) and which DMA channel it will collect trace information.

    Since I don't have a DMA example project ready to run with me, I don't know the exact step-by-step procedure to set this up. I can try to track this down, but in the meantime please check the different options and see what makes sense.

    (edit) the page below contains some interesting examples on how to perform advanced Trace setup.

    Hope this helps,
