Bug ID: 17484
Summary: Flashing blocks 'erased' loaded after 'regular'
Product: gdb
Version: 7.8
Status: NEW
Severity: normal
Priority: P2
Component: remote
Assignee: unassigned at sourceware dot org
Reporter: forum at emblocks dot org
Question:
Is there a reason why the memory content 'regular' (SRAM) is loaded
(X-packets) before the 'erased' blocks (FLASH)?
The problem is that if you have a mixed project with some flash and SRAM
writing the flashloaders used on target side can overwrite the SRAM content.
E.g. ARM flash loaders
Ok, this could be solved on target side by the GDB stub but we could also swap
those two sections in GDB. It makes sense that we do first all the flashing etc
after which we make the target ready for running and do the final RAM
initialization.
I have swapped it and it works for me.
