I have two Longan Nanos, and I’m using one as the RV-LINK debugger in PlatformIO with Visual Studio Code under Windows 10 to debug the other one.
This is working to some extent, but not as good as I would expect. For example when the program hits a breakpoint, the debugger stops in an assembler listing and not in the corresponding source file. Breakpoints set in Visual Studio Code by clicking into the source file don’t work. On the other hand if I set a breakpoint in the Visual Studio Code debug console directly via a gdb command then the break point has an effect.
This is my platformio.ini file:
[env:sipeed-longan-nano]
platform = gd32v
framework = gd32vf103-sdk
board = sipeed-longan-nano
monitor_speed = 115200
upload_protocol = rv-link
debug_tool = rv-link
build_type = debug
debug_port = COM5
Is something missing here to get source-level debugging to work?
This is shown in the debug console when starting a debugging session:
