ARM DS-5 Using the Debug Hardware Configuration Utilities

Configuring debug hardware for GDB9.21 RVIahbload command syntaxRVIahbload uses an access port that is bridged to the system bus, which might be AdvancedHigh-performance Bus (AHB) or Advanced Extensible Interface (AXI). Although this directroute has speed improvements, there are additional compliations to consider. For example,loading is performed in the physical memory map.You specify the files to load in the same way as for rviload, that is, by using -bin addr:binaryfile or you can specify ELF files which load to a fixed location (--elf file.elf). The debugunit to which you want to connect is specified by a .rvc file, and you cannot supply an addressor hostname as in the case of rviload. When the file has downloaded, you can use the -jumpoption to start the target executing. For this to succeed, however, the device must supportexecution.9.21.1 SyntaxRVIahbload [options]--bin address:fileLoad binary image file at specified (hex) address.Option synonym: -i address:file--bus busnumOverride the detected AHB bus to use for the download.Option synonym: -b busnum--config RVCfileProvides the full path of the .rvc config file to use.Option synonym: -f RVCfile--devnum deviceThe device to use for the download. Default 1.Option synonym: -d device--elf filenameElf file to load. Cannot be supplied at same time as -i.Option synonym: -e filename--helpDisplay the command help.Option synonym: -h--jump addressStart executing from this (hex) address after loading if supported by device.Option synonym: -j address9.21.2 ExamplesThe following are examples of how to use RVIahbload:RVIahbdownload -f rvi.rvc -i 8000:myprog.bin -d3 -b1 -j 0x8000This loads the binary file myprog.bin to address 0x8000 on device 3 using bus 1and starts executing it.ARM DUI 0498F Copyright © 2010-2012 ARM.
