Reading debug messages
By default, the output of printf
calls are redirected to a virtual serial port, which is exposed on the host machine via USB.
Debugging
- For convenience, you can set an environment variable that points to the Redlink tool, which is part of the MCUXpresso IDE.
export REDLINK=$MCUXPRESSO_IDE_PATH/ide/binaries/crt_emu_cm_redlink
set REDLINK=%MCUXPRESSO_IDE_PATH%\ide\binaries\crt_emu_cm_redlink
Where,
MCUXPRESSO_IDE_PATH
is an environment variable pointing to the MCUXpresso IDE installation directory. - Open a terminal window and run the following command:
$REDLINK --server :50032 --mi -2 -vc -p MIMXRT1062xxxxA --ConnectScript RT1060_connect.scp --flash-driver= -x ./platform/boards/nxp/mimxrt1060-evk-baremetal/cmake
%REDLINK% --server :50032 --mi -2 -vc -p MIMXRT1062xxxxA --ConnectScript RT1060_connect.scp --flash-driver= -x .\platform\boards\nxp\mimxrt1060-evk-baremetal\cmake
GDB Server is now listening for TCP connections on port,
50032
.Note: To change TCP port used by
redlink_server
, change--server :50032
to different value. - Run
arm-none-eabi-gdb
in a separate console/path/to/bin/arm-none-eabi-gdb.exe <PATH_TO>/your_app.elf
C:\path\to\bin\arm-none-eabi-gdb.exe <PATH_TO>\your_app.elf
- Connect to the target via the gdbserver in the
arm-none-eabi-gdb
console using(gdb) target remote :50032
- Alternatively, flash the target device from the
arm-none-eabi-gdb
console using the following command:(gdb) load
Known issues
- The interrupted program does not resume its execution while debugging. It must be restarted using the
mon reset halt
command.
