DS5: How to solve autodetect warning message with Platform Configuration Editor?

Hi experts,

     I use Platform Configuration Editor of DS5-v5.27 to generate debug&trace database of a Cortex-A73*4 SOC.

    After autodetect, there are some warning messages about component connections.

     The missing component connections are:

      1. CSTFunnel -> CSATBReplicator

      2. Cortex-A73_0 -> CSETM0

      3. Cortex-A73_1 -> CSETM1

      4. Cortex-A73_2 -> CSETM2

      5. Cortex-A73_3 -> CSETM3

    When I add item1(Funnel->Replicator), the slave list only shows TPIU and ETB, no Replicator is found.

    Item2~5: If I add item2~5 connections, Master CSETM_x only shows "Add Link From This Device", there is no "Add Link to This Device".   

    How I can identify the missing connections? or which points I can check cause the issues probably?

   Thanks for your attention!

Best Regards,

Emmy

  • Hello Emmy,

    The PCE auto-detect functionality relies on the discoverability of the debug components in the SoC, and in this case it appears not enough information was gathered from the system. 

    I know that I am not directly answering your question, however in case you are not aware of them, I'd like to point you at a set of videos that could help

    https://developer.arm.com/products/software-development-tools/ds-5-development-studio/resources/ds-5-media-articles#q=pce

    In particular video 2 and 3 in the series should guide you through the questions raised.

    Are you willing to share more information about the platform? It may be that we have already generated a configuration for this particular SoC.

    Please let us know if you have additional questions, and how you progress.

    Best regards,

    Lukas

  • Hi Lukas,

         The videos you recommended are very useful for me, thanks!

         After I upgrade DS-5 software to v5.28.1 and upgrade DSTREAM firmware to v4.33.0, PCE autodetect can work well and no warning  messages are generated.

          The SOC I used is Cortex-A73*4. I just want using PCE autodetect to check Coresight component connections are right or not.

          Thanks for your attention!

    Best Regards,
