title: Lab7: On-Chip Debugger + semihosting
toc: no
...
預期目標
-------
- 學習 OpenOCD 的操作與擴充
- ARM Semihosting 機制的應用
ARM Semihost
------------
* 使用 ARM 所開發的目標系統 (target system)，不一定會提供所有的輸入/輸出設備。因此 ARM 設計了 semihost 這種機制，讓運行 ARM debugger 的主機可以與目標系統進行 I/O 溝通，以利產品開發

- [Semihosting (半主機)](http://albert-oma.blogspot.tw/2012/04/semihosting.html)
* Semihost 的實作是透過使用定義好的軟體中斷 (SVCs)，使程式在執行過程中產生中斷。一旦目標系統上的程式呼叫到對應的指令 (semihosting call)，便產生軟體中斷，接著 Debug Agent 就會負責處理此中斷，進行與主機的溝通

- [The semihosting interface](http://infocenter.arm.com/help/index.jsp?topic=/com.arm.doc.dui0205g/Bgbjhiea.html)
* FreeRTOS extensions: https://github.com/hugovincent/mbed-freertos
* [FreeRTOS extensions](https://github.com/hugovincent/mbed-freertos)
- lib/semifs.c
- mbed (mbed.org) target supports semihosted local filesystem, accessible via the mbed USB interface. Should also work with semihosting-compatible debuggers.
* [QEMU ARM semihosting](http://balau82.wordpress.com/2010/11/04/qemu-arm-semihosting/)
User-mode Emulation
--------------------
* 透過模擬器執行 printf() 一類需要系統呼叫的 ARM 程式
.. code-block:: prettyprint
```
sudo apt-get install qemu-user-static
cd Labs/Lab7
make factorial
./factorial
```
OpenOCD + STM32F4
------------------
* OpenOCD 的安裝請見 `Lab-6</embedded/Lab6>`_
* ARM On-Chip Debugging demonstration: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=NSVOuHToJ6c
* Beginner’s look at On-Chip Debugging: http://hackaday.com/2012/09/27/beginners-look-at-on-chip-debugging/
* Architecture and Core Commands of OpenOCD
- http://openocd.sourceforge.net/doc/html/Architecture-and-Core-Commands.html
- Command: arm semihosting
+ Display status of semihosting, after optionally changing that status.
+ "Semihosting allows for code executing on an ARM target to use the I/O facilities on the host computer i.e. the system where OpenOCD is running. The target application must be linked against a library implementing the ARM semihosting convention that forwards operation requests by using a special SVC instruction that is trapped at the Supervisor Call vector by OpenOCD."

作業
----
* 適度修改 Makefile 與 OpenOCD 設定檔，使 Host 端可以自動下載 ELF image 到 STM32F4-Discovery 環境中，並且執行程式，預期將輸出以下：
.. code-block:: prettyprint
```
factorial(0) = 1
factorial(1) = 1
factorial(2) = 2
...
factorial(9) = 362880
```
* ``factorial.c`` 的 printf() 呼叫，將改以 semihost 方式執行
* 評分測試方法：
- ``cd Labs/Lab7 && make all auto``
