Hi,
This patchset attempts to attack the issue reported in pr/29738.
Based on my testing on a STM32L552 with TrustZone, it appears to work as
expected, but I'd love to have another set of eyes on this!
Most of the items reported can be seen using the GTZC example from ST:
https://github.com/STMicroelectronics/STM32CubeL5/tree/master/Projects/NUCLEO-L552ZE-Q/Examples/GTZC/GTZC_TZSC_MPCBB_TrustZone
I've manually verfied the register content by setting break points in
* main
* Error_Handler
* SecureFault_Handler
For the dwarf2 problem in pr/29738, I added 7-chained functions like
below and placed a breakpoint at myfunc7:
void myfunc7()
{
HAL_Delay(1);
}
...
void myfunc1()
{
HAL_Delay(1);
myfunc2();
}
For each breakpoint, I then used the below macros to print the
registers. For each of the printed frames, I then manually checked if
the values maked sense.
define show_reg
shell printf "%-8s " '$arg0'
p/x $arg0
end
define show_stacks
shell echo
shell echo -e "\x1b[35mContent at $arg0\x1b[0m"
bt
set $i = 0
while $i <= $arg1
f $i
show_reg $lr
show_reg $pc
show_reg $sp
show_reg $msp
show_reg $msp_s
show_reg $msp_ns
show_reg $psp
show_reg $psp_s
show_reg $psp_ns
shell echo
set $i = $i + 1
end
shell echo
shell echo
end
The show_stacks macro takes 2 arguments, a description and the number of
frames to print registers for.
To show the registers for all the frames when at the Error_Handler
breakpoint, I used:
show_stacks "Error_Handler" 7
After talkning to Luis about the v1 series of these patches, we
concluded that a generic way to store the data needed by the
prev_register function was better than trying to squeze the logic
into the _init function.
Kind regards,
Torbjörn
