MSPDebug
|
||
|
========
|
||
|
|
||
|
MSPDebug is a free debugger for use with MSP430 MCUs. It supports
|
||
|
FET430UIF, eZ430, RF2500 and Olimex MSP-JTAG-TINY programmers. It can be
|
||
|
used as a proxy for gdb or as an independent debugger with support for
|
||
|
programming, disassembly and reverse engineering.
|
||
|
|
||
|
Features
|
||
|
--------
|
||
|
|
||
|
* Userspace only: no kernel modifications required.
|
||
|
* Works with RF2500, eZ430, FET430UIF, Launchpad and Olimex MSP-JTAG-TINY
|
||
|
programmers. Also supports the TI flash bootloader.
|
||
|
* Can act as a GDB remote stub (replacement for msp430-gdbproxy)
|
||
|
and/or a GDB client.
|
||
|
* Can single-step, program, run to breakpoint and inspect memory on
|
||
|
supported devices.
|
||
|
* Can be used to access the FET430UIF bootloader.
|
||
|
* Supports Intel HEX, ELF32, BSD symbol table, COFF, TI Text and
|
||
|
SREC file formats.
|
||
|
* Can disassemble code in memory, including translating addresses to
|
||
|
symbols.
|
||
|
* Includes reverse-engineering features such as instruction search,
|
||
|
call-graph analysis and symbol table editing.
|
||
|
* Simulation mode allows execution of MSP430 code without hardware.

Compiling from source
|
||
|
---------------------
|
||
|
|
||
|
Ensure that you have the necessary packages to compile programs that use
|
||
|
libusb (on Debian or Ubuntu systems, you might need to do apt-get
|
||
|
install libusb-dev). After that, unpack and compile the source code
|
||
|
with:
|
||
|
|
||
|
tar xvfz mspdebug-version.tar.gz
|
||
|
cd mspdebug-version
|
||
|
make
|
||
|
|
||
|
If you don't want GNU readline support, you can invoke make with:
|
||
|
|
||
|
make WITHOUT_READLINE=1
|
||
|
|
||
|
After compiling, install the binary and manual page by running (as
|
||
|
root):
|
||
|
|
||
|
make install
|
||
|
|
||
|
Type "mspdebug --help" for usage instructions.
