Running OpenOCD on ESP32-P4-Function-EV-Board

[jsolsona]

Hi there,

I am starting with ESP-32-P4, copied the simple "hello_world" example, and tried to debug it (I work on windows).

Buiding, flashing and running monitor works fine, so my USB Comport is setup properly, but no matter how I try to launch OpenOCD I always have same message:

Code: Select all

Error: [esp32p4.hp.cpu] Unsupported DTM version: -1
Error: [esp32p4.hp.cpu] Could not identify target type.

After reading in some documentaiton (sparse, very very sparse), I found that :

USB-JTAG: GPIO24 and GPIO25 are used by USB-JTAG by default. If they are reconfigured to operate as normal GPIOs, USB-JTAG functionality will be disabled.

So, next step, lets check the status of these GPIOs in vanilla hello_world code, adding the following lines to my code:

Code: Select all

    gpio_dump_io_configuration(stdout, (1ULL << 24) | (1ULL << 25));

I have the following output:

================IO DUMP Start================
IO[24] -
Pullup: 0, Pulldown: 0, DriveCap: 3
InputEn: 0, OutputEn: 0, OpenDrain: 0
FuncSel: 0 (IOMUX)
SleepSelEn: 0

IO[25] -
Pullup: 0, Pulldown: 0, DriveCap: 3
InputEn: 0, OutputEn: 0, OpenDrain: 0
FuncSel: 0 (IOMUX)
SleepSelEn: 0

=================IO DUMP End==================
This is esp32p4 chip with 2 CPU core(s), , silicon revision v0.1, 2MB external flash
Minimum free heap size: 610312 bytes

That I understand "IOMUX, default behaviour" (I May be wrong)

(BTW, the documentation states to use a function called ""

gpio_dump_all_io_configuration(stdout, SOC_GPIO_VALID_GPIO_MASK);

that seems to not exists.

May someone give me a hint on how to use OpenOCD with this board?

Kind regards
Juan

Looks like you have an OpenOCD from March this year - chances are it doesn't support the P4 yet.

Hi,

I also tried to use this function on esp32-s3 and i couldn't.
I didn't find it in esp-idf v5.3.1.

gpio_dump_all_io_configuration(stdout, SOC_GPIO_VALID_GPIO_MASK);

NOTE:
esp-idf v5.3.1

Thank's.
