Hi guys,
I bought a Panda ES to play around with both ARM and dual core processors. Kind of self-education.
I’m hitting a bone though.
I need a hardware debugger. I have started with a bus-blaster v2.5 and got this problem in openocd :
Error: 388 4415 ft2232.c:591 ft2232_read(): couldn't read enough bytes from FT2232 device (0 < 81)
I googled around and could not find anything relevant.
I recompiled:
-
libftdi 0.20
-
openocd 0.6
on my ubuntu 12.04 32 bit machine
Then I read that bus-blaster was somewhat experimental and so I decided to blame it.
I bought a shiny new flyswater2. It seems to be more established than the bus-blaster and it comes with a case.
Plugged it and doh… same thing.
Here it is:
sudo openocd -f interface/flyswatter2.cfg -f board/ti_pandaboard_es.cfg

I have checked what I could think of :
-
yes, the panda is powered (happens)
-
I have checked about 3 times the connections between the flyswatter2 and the panda. Unfortunately I could not buy the adapter because watterott was out of them.

openocd seems to be using the correct libraries:
ldd /usr/local/bin/openocd linux-gate.so.1 => (0x005b2000)
libdl.so.2 => /lib/i386-linux-gnu/libdl.so.2 (0x00429000)
libftdi.so.1 => /usr/local/lib/libftdi.so.1 (0x00ae7000)
libc.so.6 => /lib/i386-linux-gnu/libc.so.6 (0x00110000)
/lib/ld-linux.so.2 (0x00a7c000)
libusb-0.1.so.4 => /lib/i386-linux-gnu/libusb-0.1.so.4 (0x00ebd000)
- emu 0 and 1 are left floating
I’ve run the command again with the “-d 3” option but:
-
I don’t really know what to expect when it runs ok,
-
the log is about 40kB so I don’t know if I am allowed to post it here…
Update 20121006:
I have tried to compile openocd against the proprietary drivers. It was not so much fun but I got it in the end and the result is really disapointing.

The flyswatter2 is definitely working fine, at least on the USB side. Using the examples provided with the proprietary drivers at least. I can read the EEPROM no problem

FT_Open succeeded. Handle is 0x82cb238

Update 20121008:
I’ve made some progress but I’ll keep the cider in the fridge for now.
I’m sticking to the proprietary drivers because they give me results.
I have tried on a different machine (ubuntu again but 64 bit this time) and I have compiled the new openocd 0.6.1.
Not much change there I get the same result.
HOWEVER, if I start openocd and then power on the panda board, I get this :
sudo openocd -f interface/flyswatter2.g -f board/ti_pandaboard_es.cfg

I guess I am getting one byte closer… :?
---- end of update
Now I’ve run out of idea.
Any help, lead, idea would be appreciated.
Thanks,
Fred.
