Programming and debugging
*************************

For debugging zephyr applications or burning them into a flash, you will need to
connect Andes ICE from host computer to ADP-XC7K board and execute the
Andes ICE management software, ICEman, on this host computer.

Connecting Andes ICE (AICE)
===========================

AICE is used for flashing and debugging the board. Please connect AICE to both
ADP-XC7K board and the host computer as shown in the figure.

.. image:: ../../../../../../../boards/andestech/adp_xc7k_ae350/doc/img/connect_aice.jpg
     :align: center
     :alt: Connect AICE

More information can be found on `AICE-MINI+`_, `AICE-MICRO`_ website

Building
========

You can build applications in the usual way. Here is an example for
the :ref:`hello_world` application.

.. zephyr-app-commands::
   :zephyr-app: samples/hello_world
   :board: adp_xc7k/ae350
   :goals: build

Flashing
========

Before flashing, you have to download ICEman (``ice.zip``) from the
`Andes Development Kit`_.
If you want to use XIP mode (``CONFIG_XIP=y``), you also need to download
the flash burner (``flash.zip``).

At first, you should run ICEman when flashing and debugging program.

.. code-block:: console

   # Enable execute file permission of ICEman
   chmod a+x ./ICEman

   # Running the ICEman server
   sudo ./ICEman -Z v5

.. note::

   To run ICEman commands as a normal user, you will need to install the
   :file:`70-ndsusb-v1.rules` udev rules file (usually by placing it in
   :file:`/etc/udev/rules.d`, then unplugging and plugging the
   AICE adapter in again via USB.).

If ``CONFIG_XIP=n``, you can load the program (``zephyr.elf``) into RAM directly
and execute it.

.. code-block:: console

   # Check the ICEman server is running
   # Load the program into RAM and execute it
   riscv64-zephyr-elf-gdb build/zephyr/zephyr.elf
   (gdb) target remote :1111
   (gdb) monitor reset halt
   (gdb) load
   (gdb) quit

If ``CONFIG_XIP=y``, you need to burn the program (``zephyr.bin``) into flash memory
and execute it.

.. code-block:: console

   # Check the ICEman server is running
   # Burn the program into flash and execute it
   <FLASH>/bin/target_burn_frontend \
       -P 4444 --unlock --verify --image=build/zephyr/zephyr.bin \
       --algorithm-bin=<FLASH>/target_bin/target_SPI_v5_[32|64].bin

   # Note:
   #   1. Assume the flash burner is downloaded to <FLASH> directory
   #   2. For algorithm-bin file, use target_SPI_v5_32.bin in RV32 platform and
   #      use target_SPI_v5_64.bin in RV64 platform

Open a serial terminal with the following settings:

- Speed: 115200
- Data: 8 bits
- Parity: None
- Stop bits: 1

you should see the following message in the terminal:

.. code-block:: console

   ***** Booting Zephyr OS v2.4.0 *****
   Hello World! adp_xc7k

Debugging
=========

.. code-block:: console

   # Check the ICEman server is running
   # Load and debug program
   ./riscv64-zephyr-elf-gdb build/zephyr/zephyr.elf
   (gdb) target remote :1111
   (gdb) monitor reset halt
   (gdb) load

If ``CONFIG_XIP=y``, please follow the flashing section to burn the program into
flash memory first.
Then, you can use GDB to debug program by above commands but do NOT execute ``load``
command since the program has been placed in the flash memory.
