  • [ABANDONED] Invalid hex digit 116 when reading memory

    Hello there,
    I need to dump the memory of a device that I'm connected to with a J-LINK debugger. When using the jlink gdb server (version 7.88m) and gdb-multiarch and trying to dump the relevant memory space, I keep getting an "invalid hex digit 116" error. I tried all the possible windows/linux combinations (gdb server on windows, gdb-muiltiarch on linux, vice versa and all combinations in between) but I keep getting this error when trying to dump the memory with gdb. When I'm trying to dump the same memory space with jlink commander it works.
    I have to use gdb and this is extremely frustrating. The target device is atmel at91sam9n12.

    Does anybody have an idea?
  • What settings are you working with (JTAG speed)?
    What speed is the CPU running when reading the memory?
    How much memory are you trying to read? (1KB, 16KB, 128KB, …)
    How long does the reading take in J-Link Commander? (Next to not noticable, 1s, 2s, …)
