[ESP32S3,MacOSM1] Needed packages versions to support built-in JTAG debug

vabatta commented 1 year ago

Reading through community@jtag-debugging-on-esp32-devkit/32609 and https://github.com/espressif/esp-idf/issues/10381#issuecomment-1353944059 it seems that for M1 Macs I need to update the following packages:

platformio/tool-openocd-esp32@^2.1200.20230419
espressif/toolchain-xtensa-esp32s3@^12.2.0+20230208

But while changing the platform_packages with those signatures, I get the following:

Resolving espidf dependencies...
Tool Manager: Installing espressif/^12.2.0+20230208
Error: Could not find the package with 'espressif/^12.2.0+20230208' requirements for your system 'darwin_arm64'

build_type = debug
debug_tool = esp-builtin

What am I missing?

vabatta commented 1 year ago

It seems PlatformIO packages do not accept +<version> in packages, so using espressif/toolchain-xtensa-esp32s3@^12.2.0 worked, leading to the issue:

It does work with

platform = espressif32 @ ^6.3.1

See https://github.com/platformio/platform-espressif32/issues/1113#issuecomment-1592806919

vabatta commented 1 year ago

@Jason2866 I'm running already on espressif32 @ ^6.3.1. If I try to run Debug (without uploading) this is the result on debug console:

Jason2866 commented 1 year ago

The S3 inbuilt JTAG is not reliable working. Don't know what's the reason why the same setup works (for me) and for others it does not. Have you tried to start it a second or third time?

vabatta commented 1 year ago

What do you mean by "a second or third time"? I've been trying to start it in all different "Debug" launch modes, and by changing the dependencies. No matter what combinations of platform or platform_packages and debug launch modes I use, the debug output is always the one above so far.

Jason2866 commented 1 year ago

How is the USB port from the S3 connected to the Mac? Maybe this is relevant? I am using a HP G5 Dockingstation which provides USB Ports.

No need to use anything in platform_packages. You can try NOT to use for upload the inbuilt JTAG. Use the usbmodem With 2nd or 3rd time i ment debug (without uploading)

Something like this

debug_tool = esp-builtin
upload_port = /dev/cu.usbmodem2101
debug_init_break = tbreak setup

vabatta commented 1 year ago

What I've discovered is that using Open On-Chip Debugger v0.11.0-esp32-20220706 (2022-07-06-15:49) it gives the error in the base.py file, while using v0.12.0-esp32-20230419 gives no error besides the missing symbols. This still stops debugging right when reaching the end of the log, meaning I never get to attach to the device.

I have no clue on what's wrong here.

Jason2866 commented 1 year ago

OpenOCD v0.12 does not work. That's why Platformio uses v0.11

vabatta commented 1 year ago

I just tested on a native espidf project with the same code and it works. It uses Open On-Chip Debugger v0.11.0-esp32-20221026, any chance that it could be the issue seen that PIO uses v0.11.0-esp32-20220706?

Jason2866 commented 1 year ago

Maybe, but for me the v0.11.0-esp32-20220706 does work. You can try this package for apple arm

platform_packages = tool-openocd-esp32 @ https://github.com/Jason2866/openocd-esp32/releases/download/v0.11.0-esp32-2022Q3/openocd-esp32-macos-arm64-0.11.0-esp32-20221026.zip

vabatta commented 1 year ago

Yep, doesn't work still so must be something else. Is there a way to see the full log of GDB commands issued from PIO?

valeros commented 1 year ago

Hi @vabatta, first of all you need to downgrade the tool-openocd-esp32 and toolchain-xtensa-esp32s3 packages to the versions used in the stable version of the espressif32 dev-platform. The tool-openocd-esp32 v0.12 is currently unstable with PlatformIO, toolchain-xtensa-esp32s3 v12.2.0 cannot be used with ESP-IDF v5.0.2. Also remove the debug_server settings from your platformio.ini and set back debug_tool to esp-builtin.

Now please clean and compile your project, run pio debug --interface=gdb -- -x .pioinit in the terminal and attach logs here.

Thanks @vabatta, this line looks particularly suspicious:

Memory protection is enabled. Reset target to disable it...

Is any sort of memory protection indeed enabled?

I'm sorry, Dave, I can't do that. Symbol format `elf32-xtensa-le' unknown.

Hmm, let's try a workaround with a standalone GDB package as suggested in espressif/esp-idf#10381 . Please download https://github.com/espressif/binutils-gdb/releases/download/esp-gdb-v11.2_20220823/xtensa-esp-elf-gdb-11.2_20220823-aarch64-apple-darwin21.1.tar.gz and extract it somewhere on your machine. Add an extra scripts that overrides the default GDB executable:

platform = espressif32@^6.3.1
board = t-sim7080g-s3
framework = espidf
...
extra_scripts = 
    replace_gdb.py

replace_gdb.py:

Import ("env")

env.Replace(GDB="/YOUR/PATH/TO/EXTRACTED/GDB/bin/xtensa-esp32s3-elf-gdb")

Clean, run and debug again.

vabatta commented 1 year ago

Is any sort of memory protection indeed enabled?

According to espidf configs there is and seems to be enabled by default (I haven't set this manually).

CONFIG_ESP_SYSTEM_MEMPROT_FEATURE=y
CONFIG_ESP_SYSTEM_MEMPROT_FEATURE_LOCK=y

Despite having the memory protection ON, with the given GDB package I was able to successfully connect to the device and debug.

watching closely as I'm in the same pits

a working combination of toolchain, openocd and gdb for ESP32 S3 working with platformio would be great

let me know if I can help

paltforms: Mac M1 + amd64 linux

@mhaberler it actually works if you follow the instructions given by @valeros in https://github.com/platformio/platform-espressif32/issues/1126#issuecomment-1597690513

@valeros I guess that package needs to be update in this repo to make it work out of the box

mhaberler commented 11 months ago

did you try command line or VSCode?

this worked on the command line for me, but I would prefer to stay with VSCode

patching up the pio gdb path via replace_gdb.py causes the VSCode platformio plugin to generate a launch.json file which has the wrong toolchain paths - the gdb path is taken and set as toolchainBinDir:

https://github.com/platformio/platformio-core/blob/5c9b373b656f088b4fd506f49512e1880168da4f/platformio/project/integration/tpls/vscode/.vscode/launch.json.tpl#L20

next I tried gdb_path = /path/t/replacement/gdb this makes pio create a soft link to the replacement gdb

however this stalls as well as the replacement gdb wrapper script calls the wrong binary

forgot to mention - all works fine on the M1; the above happens under Linux debian x86_64

I finally wound up building Python2.7 from source to have a Python shared library to be able to run gdb

this documents it: https://github.com/mhaberler/esp32-imu-baro/tree/rev-0.9-esp-idf-arduino#jtag-debugging

vabatta commented 11 months ago

I did exactly what was written in the comment and in visual studio code, so I was able to hook up the debugger from within it and use it. I’m not sure why it won’t work for you, but if you replace ‘gdb_path’ it should automatically pick it up even if the file is regenerated.

This is for M1, I can’t tell about Linux and I think instructions and compiled gdb is meant specifically for M1.

mhaberler commented 11 months ago

things work fine on the M1 with the stock -patch5 toolchain and openocd - so issue closed so far as the subject of this issue goes, no need to replace the gdb path there

my issue was with Linux, where I got stuck with the stock gdb requiring a Python2.7 shared lib which does not exist on bookworkm anymore, so I tried the replace_gdb.py and 'gdb_path = /replacement/gdb' methods

now in both cases VSCode will regenerate the launch.json file with the whole toolChainDir now pointing to the directory where the replacement gdb lives in, and from there on things go wrong because after launch ONLY the replacement gdb is found

so I gave up on the replacement idea, built the Python2.7 shared lib as outlined and things are fine on linux as well - same setup as on M1
