The Black Magic Debug Project -- HACKING
|
|
========================================
|
|
|
|
The Black Magic Probe consists of both hardware and firmware components.
|
|
The hardware design resides in the 'hardware' directory and the firmware
|
|
resides in the 'src' directory.
|
|
|
|
|
|
Compiling for the native hardware
|
|
---------------------------------
|
|
To build the firmware for the standard hardware platform run 'make' in the
|
|
src directory. You will require a GCC cross compiler for ARM Cortex-M3
|
|
targets. You will also need to have the libopenstm32 library installed.
|
|
The default makefile assumes the target is arm-cortexm3-eabi, but
|
|
you can override this on the command line:
|
|
|
|
make CROSS_COMPILE=arm-none-eabi-
|
|
|
|
This will result in binary files:
|
|
blackmagic - ELF binary of the Black Magic debug probe.
|
|
blackmagic.bin - Flat binary of the Black Magic debug probe, load at 0x8002000.
|
|
blackmagic_dfu - ELF binary of the Black Magic DFU bootloader.
|
|
blackmagic_dfu.bin - Flat binary of the DFU bootloader, load at 0x8000000.
|
|
|
|
If you already have a JTAG/SWD debug probe that can be used to load these
|
|
binaries to your target hardware. If not the SystemMemory bootloader can
|
|
be used to load the DFU bootloader:
|
|
../scripts/bootprog.py blackmagic_dfu.bin
|
|
|
|
This requires an appropriate cable to connect the PC serial port to the probe.
|
|
See the schematic for more information.
|
|
|
|
Once the DFU bootloader is loaded, the Black Magic application can be loaded
|
|
over USB:
|
|
(First connect the probe and observe the flashing red led)
|
|
../scripts/stm32_mem.py blackmagic.bin
|
|
|
|
The device should reset and re-enumerate as a CDC-ACM device implementing
|
|
the GDB protocol.
|
|
|
|
|
|
Compiling as a Linux application using FT2232 hardware
|
|
------------------------------------------------------
|
|
The Black Magic application can also be compiled as a native PC application
|
|
which will use an FT2232 device to implement the physical JTAG interface.
|
|
This is not the intended mode of operation, but is useful for debugging,
|
|
experimentation, and if you don't have the actual hardware.
|
|
|
|
First, get the VID/PID for your FT2232 device using 'lsusb'. Edit the file
|
|
'src/libftdi/platform.h' and change the VID/PID to match your hardware.
|
|
Compile the application with the command:
|
|
|
|
make PROBE_HOST=libftdi
|
|
|
|
Running the application 'blackmagic' will start a GDB server on TCP port 2000.
