ESP 32 wrover kit Linux OpenOCD

Postby zamek42@gmail.com » Wed Jan 17, 2018 1:24 pm

Hi All,

I have a brand new ESP32 WROVER kit maybe it is V3, because it has ST7789V LCD driver. The TFT display demo and all other demos work well on it, but I cannot use openocd.
I use Debian linux x64. I've downloaded the openocd source from the github, I could compile and install it successfully. When I plug the board it occupies the /dev/ttyUSB0 and /dev/ttyUSB1.
when I try to start openocd I get this message:

openocd /s /usr/share/openocd/scripts -f interface/ftdi/esp32_devkitj_v1.cfg -c 'set ESP32_ONLYCPU 1' -f board/esp32-wrover.cfg

Is there a different config file for v3? I found esp32_devkitj_v1.cfg only.

thx

Perhaps some jumpers on JTAG lines missing? Please check that you have four jumpers connecting MTDI, MTDO, MTCK, and MTMS between the FTDI and the ESP32.

Hi,

Thx that was the problem. The output is as the documetation said, and I can verify blink.bin.
I tried to set gdb step by step as in the doc.
Both command line and eclipse said:

Just "a little bit" late, but I hope it could be useful for newbies like me:
the following error

Code: Select all

gdbinit:1: Error in sourced command file:
:3333: Connection timed out.
was caused by the fact that an openocd session must opened before and leaved running.

So, in a terminal in the folder "openocd-esp32" you should run (link):

Code: Select all

bin/openocd -s share/openocd/scripts -f interface/ftdi/esp32_devkitj_v1.cfg -f board/esp32-wrover.cfg
and in another terminal in the folder "blink" you should run (link):

Code: Select all

xtensa-esp32-elf-gdb -x gdbinit build/blink.elf
