New features
- None.
Known Problems
For XDS100 with ARM9, Cortex-A or Cortex-R cores, the USR mode registers
R8_USR
toR14_USR
does not always contain the correct values. This makes the stack usage function report false warnings. To disable the stack check functions open the Tools>Options dialog and uncheck all options in the Stack category.The semihosting (Terminal I/O) does not work correctly after flash download when using the XDS100 debugger driver. A workaround is to stop the debugger, and then start debugging without download.
When reading the
FIQ
register group in the XDS100 debugger driver, incorrect values are recorded. The actual behavior depends on the current cpu mode. This will cause the stack checking to give false warnings in the log window. A workaround is to turn off the stack checking from the menu Tools>Options>Stack and disable all stack options.

Support for Texas Instruments XDS100v2
The Texas Instruments debug probe XDS100v2 is now supported for TI TMS570 devices. To use XDS100v2, select TI XDS100 in the Driver drop-down list on the Debugger>Setup options page. The XDS100v2 debug driver requires the Texas Instruments emulator package to be installed. To install the emulator package, start...\arm\drivers\ti-xds\ti_emupack_setup.exe
and follow the installation procedure. Make sure to install the emulator package in the suggested default location. This will allow the debugger to find the emulator package automatically. If for some reason the package is installed in a custom location, the option--xds_rootdir=path
must be specified on the options page Debugger>Extra Options.
