Not able to debug intel galileo gen2 board using OpenOCD and GDB

[DPari1]

Hello,

I am trying to debug application through openOCD and gdb on intel galileo gen2 board.

I am able to set the software break point but, program running on hardware is not stopping at that break point.

And If I set the hardware break point then I am sometimes able to stop the code on hardware but not always. Success rate is once in ~10 trial.

I am using below board and architecture:

Hardware: intel galileo gen2 board

processor: Quark X1000

debugger: ARM-USB-OCD-H

Steps I follow is as below:

Create a simple application in the local machine for ex. counter.c:

# include

# include

int main(void){

int num ;

while(1)

{

sleep(2);

num=num+1;

printf("number = %d\n", num);

}

return 0;

}

Compile it with the sdk generated by bitbake using below command:

${CC} -g -O0 counter.c -o counter_app

Copy this binary to board

Run application on board by simply running ./counte_app

Run openOCD by running below command:

openocd -f ./tcl/interface/ftdi/olimex-arm-usb-ocd-h.cfg -f ./tcl/target/quark_x10xx.cfg

Open GDB and connect GDB to openOCD

halt the board and load the symbolic information of application in gdb by below command:

symbol-file /counter_app

After that I have set the break point on line 11 by

<pre __default_attr="xml" __jive_macro_name="code" class="jive_macro_code _jivemacro_uid_15000323566907582 jive_text_macro" data-renderedposition="791.421875_8_1640_16" jiv...
