Flashing over JTAG with TIAO multi function adapter

Postby bdelarre » Sun Oct 22, 2017 2:22 am

I'm attempting to get flashing over JTAG with OpenOCD working.

Starting openocd as below seems to work:

Code: Select all

$ bin/openocd.exe -s share/openocd/scripts -f interface/ftdi/tumpa.cfg -f board/esp-wroom-32.cfg

Not exactly sure why I get the LIBUSB_ERROR_NOT_SUPPORTED message, but probably due to having two other libusb serial ports attached. I have confirmed gdb working with this and managed to hit a breakpoint and step.

But trying to do the flashing fails:

Code: Select all

Forgot to include some relevant bits of info.

I'm running Windows 10 Home Edition, and attempting to flash a Sparkfun ESP32 Thing.

I also tried compiling the latest version of the modified OpenOCD version from source, with exactly the same results.

Nobody?

Could really do with this working, and by all accounts it should work. Its a real pain to flash over serial and then have to plug the jtag back in to debug.

Any suggestions?

Hi,

Could you tell the size of app image? According to the log you try to erase 0xB9000 (757760) bytes. Erase operation takes some time. Maybe the problem is with pre-configured timeout values.
Could you retry it with blink example from $IDF_PATH/examples/get-started/blink?

Hi Alexey,

Thanks for pitching in!

I ran the same process on the hello_world example (I had it precompiled so it was handy), same result:

Code: Select all

The hello-world.bin is 126kb and the firmware I was trying to flash before was 739kb.

Just to sanity check here's my wiring:

Code: Select all

        Thing   ESP32   JTAG    JTAG20  Color
+3.3V   +3.3V           +3.3V   1       Red

GND     GND             GND     4       Gray
MTDI    12      18      TDI     5       Yellow
MTMS    14      17      TMS     7       Green

Perhaps you could try lowering the JTAG clock frequency? 20MHz is okay for dev boards with integrated JTAG adapter, but may not work if you have long wiring. Not sure that is the case here, just something to try.

Well, I am thoroughly confused.

I haven't changed anything, and its started working!

I did remove a usb hub that I had plugged in (that wasn't in any way connected to any of my devices). I wonder if it was interfering somehow?

What the hell? Started failing again. No changes, worked last night, doesn't work this morning.

I lowered the speed to 10mhz with no improvement.

Finally some progress figuring this thing out!

Tried a few other speeds, reducing way down to 3khz. No joy. Then decided to revert my code change and try flashing again with usb. Worked fine. Flashed the same code with jtag, worked fine.

After some binary chopping it appears that if my code has this line:

Code: Select all

wifi_init_config_t cfg = WIFI_INIT_CONFIG_DEFAULT();
ESP_ERROR_CHECK(esp_wifi_init(&cfg));
Then it will not flash over jtag failing with:

Code: Select all

Error: timed out while waiting for target halted / 4 - 2
Info : Target halted. PRO_CPU: PC=0x40091138 (active)    APP_CPU: PC=0x400076E2
Error: xtensa_wait_algorithm: not halted 0, pc 0x40091138, ps 0x60021
Error: Faied to wait algorithm (0)!
Error: Algorithm run faied (-302)!
Error: failed erasing sectors 16 to 127
** Programming Failed **
If I remove the line, even just the esp_wifi_init call flashing over jtag works again. Don't need to reset the board or anything.

This had me scratching my head for a while before I checked the file sizes. The .bin size is 447kb with the wifi init call, and 211kb without it. So evidently its a timing issue relating to the time it takes to clear the flash area for programming, pulling in the wifi libs puts me over this limit and the flashing fails due to not returning to the halt state in time.

Any idea where I can tweak this timeout?

Filed this PR against the openocd-esp32 project to increase the timeout to 10s. Seems to do the job.
