MPS3 AN547 Board

The MPS3 AN547 board configuration uses QEMU to emulate a generic ARM v8-M series hardware platform and provides support for the following devices:

• ARM Generic Timer

• CMSDK UART controller

Getting Started

Configuring and Running (Single Core)

1. Configuring NuttX and Compiling:

   ./tools/configure.sh -l mps3-an547:nsh
   make
   

2. Running with QEMU:

   $ qemu-system-arm -M mps3-an547 -nographic -kernel nuttx.bin
   

3. Pic ostest:

   ./tools/configure.sh mps3-an547:picostest
   make -j20
   genromfs -f romfs.img -d ../apps/bin/
   qemu-system-arm -M mps3-an547 -m 2G -nographic \
   -kernel nuttx.bin -gdb tcp::1127 \
   -device loader,file=romfs.img,addr=0x60000000
   nsh> /pic/hello
   nsh> /pic/ostest
   

4. Pic bootloader boot to ap, and run ostest:

   ./tools/configure.sh mps3-an547:ap
   make -j20
   mkdir -p pic
   arm-none-eabi-strip --remove-section=.rel.text --remove-section=.comment --strip-unneeded nuttx -o pic/boot
   genromfs -a -f 128 ../romfs.img -d pic
   make distclean -j20
   ./tools/configure.sh mps3-an547:bl
   make -j20
   qemu-system-arm -M mps3-an547 -m 2G -nographic \
   -kernel nuttx.bin -gdb tcp::1127 \
   -device loader,file=../romfs.img,addr=0x60000000
   bl> boot /pic/boot
   ap> ostest
   

Debugging with QEMU

The NuttX ELF image can be debugged using QEMU.

1. Enable Debug Symbols. Ensure the following change is applied to defconfig:

   CONFIG_DEBUG_SYMBOLS=y
   

2. Run QEMU:

   qemu-system-arm -M mps3-an547 -nographic -kernel nuttx.bin -S -s
   

3. Run GDB with TUI:

   arm-none-eabi-gdb -tui --eval-command='target remote localhost:1234' nuttx
