Unable to use FTDI Chip to debug ESP-WROVER-KIT

alecton4 · May 21, 2022, 11:48pm

Able to download firmware but unable to debug. According to doc from platformio and doc from espressif, directly connecting the board to the laptop with USB cable should be fine. Error message from vscode’s debug console is as follows:

No – on Windwos (which your D:\... path in the output suggests), you have to use Zadig to load WinUSB drivers for the JTAG USB part of the ESP-PROG to be able to use it to debug. Please see https://medium.com/@manuel.bl/low-cost-esp32-in-circuit-debugging-dbbee39e508b.

@maxgerhardt Thanks for the reply! I have loaded WinUSB drivers for the JTAG USB, and OpenOCD can find the jtag device now. However, there are new error messages (seems it’s complaining about number of threads? But my main.cpp is very simple and I attached it below):

Okay, that looks a lot better now but still not completely working.

Can you add debug_init_break = break setup to your platformio.ini and retry debugging? It might have halted the chip at a very weird place where FreeRTOS was not yet initialized.

In the “Debugging” sidebars, there is also not only “PIO Debug” as possible target, but a “without upload” (aka, Attach). Can you let the firmware run normally, then use that target too? Does it attach properly?

alecton4 · May 22, 2022, 1:26pm

@maxgerhardt Thanks. Adding debug_init_break = break setup doesn’t work. It’s outputting the same error message.

I used “PIO Debug (without uploading)” and then:
stage01: seems it’s working, but the program is not stopping at the breakpoint;
stage02: after some seconds, some error message shows up;
stage03: it just outputs error message and doesn’t stop. So I pressed the stop button.

message for stage01:

I’ve never seen that before, hm. A more familiar error is “DSR (FFFFFFFF) indicates DIR instruction generated an overrun” which always hinted at a bad cable connection or too high debug speed.

Try adding debug_speed = 500 (docs) into the platformio.ini and enable the debug_init_break line again, then use the regular “PIO Debug” target again. Does it change anything?

@maxgerhardt Thanks for your effort! Added debug_speed = 500, but stage02 from my last reply still occurs with almost the same error message:

Hm interesting it’s different now.

Sadly I don’t have any further tips – please file an issue in Issues · platformio/platform-espressif32 · GitHub. If the error isn’t identifyable as being within PlatformIO, they might redirect you to GitHub - espressif/openocd-esp32: OpenOCD branch with ESP32 JTAG support though.

alecton4 · May 23, 2022, 7:34am

@maxgerhardt Thank you very much for your time.

Actually there’s no difference lol. You can see Unsupported syscall 3f40210c! in my previous reply as well.

I’m not pretty sure whether OpenOCD or Espressif should be responsible for this bug. Anyway I think platformio is doing a great job

maxgerhardt · May 23, 2022, 9:21am

Hm well okay, but there was also this 0xffffff one

Start by filing an issue in platform-espressif32 as linked above, developers should take it from there.
