ASB (Ambiq Secure Bootloader) configuration issue

stephenf · September 4, 2019, 11:51am

Hi Liquid Solder and all,

This is worth a dedicated thread, although it is a combination of these:

viewtopic.php?f=164&t=50266#p205524

Summary:

Recently, I followed instructions on this forum at viewtopic.php?p=206278#p206278 to reconfigure the ASB bootloader, which has made both custom and stock boards unable to be programmed (either by Arduino IDE and SVL, or by JTAG), although a Burn Bootloader appears to be successful and the SVL is present. I now have two bricked boards, please help…

Background:

I have a custom board with an early module I had suspected of not being configured correctly (or a hardware/assembly error on my part). The custom board would not accept a Burn Bootloader or USB upload, but would accept JTAG programming, and then communicate via serial over USB (inc. reset when Serial Monitor started), so I was hesitant to start desoldering things until all things software had been investigated. Reprogramming the ASB/configuration seemed like the last thing to try, and useful practise in the event of bricking. I also have (had) a stock Sparkfun Artemis Blackboard (Uno footprint), unaltered, and working great.

Detailed Testing/Process Notes:

Hardware/Software: Windows 10, Arduino 1.8.9, Core 1.0.6 (Burn Bootloader and compile/upload also tried in 1.0.7), J-Link Mini EDU JTAG programmer from Sparkfun, Ambiq SDK 2.2.0 (and also tried with 2.0.0, yes for both versions I did remember to copy/rename the noted file to keys_info.py, and to use both the .bin and the .txt files from either version for the jlink step).

Following instructions from:

viewtopic.php?p=206278#p206278

Downloaded Ambiq SDK, and copy/renamed the file to keys_info.py as directed

Python adventures

(moved to later - a bunch of extra steps that had to be figured out, might be useful to someone)

Back to actual Artemis stuff:

On an Admin command prompt I entered:

cd C:\Users\XYZ\Desktop\AmbiqSuite-Rel2.2.0_vVeIKav\AmbiqSuite-Rel2.2.0\tools\apollo3_scripts

.\create_info0.py --valid 1 info0 --pl 1 --u0 0x1C200c0 --u1 0xFFFF3031 --u2 0x2 --u3 0x0 --u4 0x0 --u5 0x0 --main 0xC000 --gpio 0x0E --version 0 --wTO 5000

(note backslash for windows) This was checked and double checked against the instructions mentioned above. I did wonder if 0x1C200c0 (115200 baud rate) had the c0 suffix as an error. Tried omitting and it made no difference.

A whole lot of nice messages (see below), and info0.bin was created in the tools\apollo3_scripts directory. Cool.

I copied info0.bin and jlink-prog-info0.txt to C:\Program Files (x86)\SEGGER\JLink_V648b

From Admin Command Prompt at C:\Program Files (x86)\SEGGER\JLink_V648b, entered:

jlink -CommanderScript jlink-prog-info0.txt

Looks like it worked! Many happy messages (see below)

Then opened Arduino IDE, and did a Burn Bootloader to put SVL on. Also many happy messages (see below).

Try to compile and upload basic sketch and… upload failed (see below for output)

Try to upload SerialCallResponseASCII.bin file to 0x10000 via JTAG, apparently successful, but code doesn’t run

Try to upload SerialCallResponseASCII.bin file to 0xC000 via JTAG, apparently successful, but code doesn’t run

(see my JTAG programming how-to here viewtopic.php?f=165&t=50685 )

I repeated this with the stock Sparkfun board and bricked it too, with all the same messages as far as I can tell. Hopefully it’s a minor error somewhere that’s easily fixed. Perhaps a different script is used in production?

Python adventures

First I tried to generate info0.bin with Python 2.7 but that didn’t work, here is the error message in case anyone is desperately searching:

Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "C:\Users\XYZ\Desktop\AmbiqSuite-Rel2.2.0_vVeIKav\AmbiqSuite-Rel2.2.0\tools\apollo3_scripts\create_info0.py", line 13, in <module>
    from am_defines import *
  File "C:\Users\XYZ\Desktop\AmbiqSuite-Rel2.2.0_vVeIKav\AmbiqSuite-Rel2.2.0\tools\apollo3_scripts\am_defines.py", line 524
    def am_print(*args, level=AM_PRINT_LEVEL_INFO, **kwargs):
                            ^
SyntaxError: invalid syntax

So I installed the latest Python (3.7.4), with some help from here:

https://learn.sparkfun.com/tutorials/us … n----oh-my

For the record, it ends up at: C:\Users\XYZ\AppData\Local\Programs\Python\Python37-32

Make sure it’s added to your PATH so can be run from anywhere.

Additional modules(?) need to be installed for the Ambiq stuff to work.

From admin command prompt at \Scripts, I entered:

“pip3 install pycryptodome” (download/install followed)

“pip3 install pyserial” (download/install followed)

Left it as “python.exe”, instead of changing to “python3.exe” as suggested in the tutorial. Calling “python” or “python.exe” from the command line runs the later version. The scripts definitely execute on the latest Python (I got paranoid and renamed the .exe in the 2.7 folder to something else)

Excellent report - I wish it revealed something obvious. A few comments:

You seem to have configured the ASB correctly. I too was curious about the trailing “c0” in the command to generate “info0.bin” but the original documentation that I had to go on includes that signature and our production steps for Edge / Artemis boards does as well. That documentation, however, did come from the engineer who began the Apollo3 project and I haven’t been able to confirm it through any official AmbiqMicro documentation. Still, I don’t think that is the issue for several reasons.
The output from the ‘Burn Bootloader’ step indicates that the ASB is configured properly and working in concert with the ASB combined Python script. That should narrow down the scope of the problem to just the SVL. To confirm that can you give more information about what happened when you:

(also tried Bootloader: Ambiq Secure Bootloader for luck, even though I’m pretty sure it’s not meant to work that way)

Since the 'Burn Bootloader' step was successful I would also expect that uploading sketches with the ASB bootloader selected should work.

That brings me to an observation… If the ASB upload (in the ‘Burn Bootloader’ step) is successful but the uploaded sketch does not run that would definitely cause the ‘Error receiving packet’ error. (Because the SVL is simply a sketch trying to run from the 0xC000 address just like any sketch that is uploaded with the ASB option) So right now it might be most helpful to understand what exactly is happening when you upload a sketch like Blink with the ASB bootloader. Since you have a SEGGER J-Link you might be able to follow these (following) steps to debug the actual execution using Segger Embedded Studio.

** PAGE BREAK **

Setup

Write your project as you normally would (either in SDK or as a .ino) and find the .axf output file.
Download Segger Embedded Studio for ARM
Open SES, and click File->New Project
Select “An externally built executable for a Cortex-M processor” and “next”
Choose the “AMA3B1KK-KBR” device and “next”
Make sure debugger is “J-Link,” interface is “SWD” and then choose the load file to be the .axf that you have built from your project. (SES should auto-detect the filetype), then “next”
Ensure “Debug” configuration is selected to add to the project, then “finish”

At this point you could probably start debugging, but ideally we would tell SES about our source files so that we can view the source code that corresponds to current execution… however I haven’t become that familiar with SES yet and somehow SES was able to find my corresponding source without my intervention at all ???

Starting Debugging

Note: for some reason SES tries to read/write from the SBL memory (results in a “can’t read/write flash” error) when using the usual debugging startup so I had to figure out a workaround.

Target->Connect J-Link
Target->Download File->Download ELF File, select your .axf (when using this button is seems to only flash the memory according to the .axf file, which I suspect inlcudes information about starting at 0xC000 from the linker script - allows us to proceed)
Agree to license warning?
Target->Attach Debugger (if this errors out then Target->Connect J-Link and another usage of Target->Attach Debugger worked for me)
Debug->Break (to pause the debug and hopefully magically pull up the source file that corresonds to the current execution. Also shows disassembly in a side pane. Somehow this actually worked for me without ever telling SES about my source files… so that’s weird but i’m not mad)
Now you can use the debug menu, or the hotkeys, to step through code.
Since the normal debug startup errors out we don’t have the convenience of it automatically stopping at main(). My solution is to use Run to Cursor on main() (right click near main()) and then press reset manually, and SES detects that executing address corresponds to main when it gets there
Have fun seeing the guts of the Apollo3 as it runs your code

Hi LS, thanks for the detailed analysis, but I think you’ve missed a key thing - does the error happen for you with a stock board when following the instructions? This seems reasonable since the exact same error has happened for mutiple users, platforms, boards and cores. Being in the production process isn’t the same, ie. maybe it only happens the second time the ASB is configured.

Thanks for the debugger instructions. I’ve spent enough time on this frustrating issue for now, I’ll report back when I get to looking at that.

Here’s the output from when I try Burn Bootloader with Bootloader: Ambiq Secure Bootloader
