  • [SOLVED] [bug]ozone v3.10b can not get the correct initial​ PC based iar7.10 *.out

    1. It is possible to debug the same * .out (created by iar 7.10) with the ozone project created by v2.70, but the ozone project created by v3.10 is wrong.
    2. The screenshot below shows that they got a different PC and v2.70 got the right PC.
    3. The source code shows different content inside the two projects.
    4. Elf.GetEntryPointPC (), this api cannot get the correct initial pc, at least * .out created by iar 7.10.

    C Source Code

    1. void AfterTargetDownload (void) {
    2. unsigned int SP;
    3. unsigned int PC;
    4. unsigned int VectorTableAddr;
    5. VectorTableAddr = Elf.GetBaseAddr();
    6. if (VectorTableAddr == 0xFFFFFFFF) {
    7. Util.Log("Project file error: failed to get program base");
    8. } else {
    9. SP = Target.ReadU32(VectorTableAddr);
    10. Target.SetReg("SP", SP);
    11. PC = Target.ReadU32(VectorTableAddr + 4);
    12. Target.SetReg("PC", PC);
    13. }
    14. }

  • Hello,

    Thank you for your inquiry.
    Such an issue is not known to us.

    Could you provide your .out file for reference?

    Best regards,
    Nino

  • 1. Thank you for your attention.
    2. Please change the file name "project.out.bin" to "project.out".
    3. The same problem was encountered again today. This time in MDK.
    4. The problem caused the program to skip "SystemInit ()".
    5. After I used Target.ReadU32 (VectorTableAddr + 4) to get the PC value, the problem was solved.

  • Hello,

    This is no issue with Ozone as Ozone correctly finds the entry point of this application which is __iar_program_start in this particular elf file.
    IAR creates this information. Ozone only displays it. So Elf.GetEntryPointPC() does exactly what is documented.
    Anyhow we will add an option in the project wizard so you can generate the Ozone projects better so such elf files with unexpected information in them still work normally.

    We will consider this thread as solved now.

    Best regards,
    Nino
