Segger J-Link fails to halt the esp32.cpu1

Postby bobik78 » Tue Mar 07, 2017 5:20 am

Hello All,

I have ESP32 dev. board with Segger j-link as JTAG debugger.

I tried to debug ESP32 sample applications with use of OpenOCD and GDB but it failed due to "TARGET: esp32.cpui1 - Not halted" error.

Code: Select all

 ./src/openocd -s ./tcl -f ./esp32.cfg
Open On-Chip Debugger 0.10.0-dev-g90071eb (2017-03-06-11:53)

Did anyone encountered similar problem and solved it?
Any help/explanation - appreciated :)
Thanks,

Similar for me - I have to run the debugger shortly after powering up the board, its a narrow time window.

This didn't work for me.
Any idea what's a problem? Is it a debugger issue or ESP32 issue?
Anyone knows?

BTW, According to ESP32 documentation -
Hardware-wise, when one CPU is halted because of debugging reasons, the other one will be halted as well; resuming also happens simultaneously.
Thanks.
