DFU Bootloader cannot jump to application

Hi All,

I am using STR912FAW44 and keil MDK to develop the DFU bootloader. When the program jumps to Application, it hangs there. I set up a breakpoint before jump, I find it always goes to undefined handler. I wonder what causes to go to the undefined handler. Greatly appreciate any suggestions.


    FMI->BBSR   = 0x0;
    FMI->NBBSR  = 0x6;
    FMI->BBADR  = 0x400000 >> 2;
    FMI->NBBADR = 0x0 ;
    /* Jump to the user application and execute it */
    Jump_To_Application = (pFunction) 0x00;

    Jump_To_Application();   (set breakpoint here)

Best Regards,

Lillian

  • Hi All,

    Finally, my DFU bootloader can jump to the application. However, new issues come out.

    1. The application works fine as loaded by uLink2 without DFU bootloader.
    2. Load the DFU bootloader and it jumps to the application. But the application will crash after running a while.

    My application includes FIQ timer and USB CDC.

    I wonder it may be caused by the stack size and increase them, but no luck.

    The stack size for DFU bootloader is set as followes.

    UND_Stack_Size  EQU     0x00000040
    SVC_Stack_Size  EQU     0x00000040;0x00000008
    ABT_Stack_Size  EQU     0x00000040
    FIQ_Stack_Size  EQU     0x00001800
    IRQ_Stack_Size  EQU     0x00001800
    USR_Stack_Size  EQU     0x00002000
    
    ISR_Stack_Size  EQU     (UND_Stack_Size + SVC_Stack_Size + ABT_Stack_Size + \ 
                             FIQ_Stack_Size + IRQ_Stack_Size)
    
                    AREA    STACK, NOINIT, READWRITE, ALIGN=3
    
    Stack_Mem       SPACE   USR_Stack_Size
    __initial_sp    SPACE   ISR_Stack_Size
    Stack_Top
    
    
    ;// <h> Heap Configuration
    ;//   <o>  Heap Size (in Bytes) <0x0-0xFFFFFFFF>
    ;// </h>
    
    Heap_Size       EQU     0x00000400;0x00000200
    
                    AREA    HEAP, NOINIT, READWRITE, ALIGN=3
    __heap_base
    Heap_Mem        SPACE   Heap_Size
    __heap_limit
    

    The stack size for application is

    UND_Stack_Size  EQU     0x00000020
    SVC_Stack_Size  EQU     0x00000ff0;0x00000008
    ABT_Stack_Size  EQU     0x00000020
    FIQ_Stack_Size  EQU     0x00001200
    IRQ_Stack_Size  EQU     0x00000400
    USR_Stack_Size  EQU     0x00001000
    
    ISR_Stack_Size  EQU     (UND_Stack_Size + SVC_Stack_Size + ABT_Stack_Size + \ 
                             FIQ_Stack_Size + IRQ_Stack_Size)
    
                    AREA    STACK, NOINIT, READWRITE, ALIGN=3
    
    Stack_Mem       SPACE   USR_Stack_Size
    __initial_sp    SPACE   ISR_Stack_Size
    Stack_Top
    
    
    ;// <h> Heap Configuration
    ;//   <o>  Heap Size (in Bytes) <0x0-0xFFFFFFFF>
    ;// </h>
    
    Heap_Size       EQU     0x00000400
    
                    AREA    HEAP, NOINIT, READWRITE, ALIGN=3
    __heap_base
    Heap_Mem        SPACE   Heap_Size
    __heap_limit
    

    Please help me. What may results in the issues above. Appreciate any suggestions.

    Best Regards,

  • For a NXP LPC23xx:

    When the bootloader jumps to the application, it should be in the privilege mode; otherwise the application will fail to set the stack.
