Hi,
I'm stuck with mspgcc + F248 - so I just subscribed to this list to ask
for some help.
I've got a product based on a F149. In the new design I've switched to
F248. Now I've got the hardware, but no toolchain that supports the
processor.
Some weeks ago I've checked out the toolchain from the CVS and managed
to add support for F248. Binutils and gcc tell me that they support this
processor and I get my test code compiled and linked (I've got no clue
if the generated code is correct though).
When I tried to flash the F248 with good old msp430-gdbproxy via a
parport FET it tells me
error: msp430: Could not read device memory (6)
Ok, so I need a new gdbproxy. I've been using the procedure in
packaging/README-MAINTAINER.txt but the included makefile does not
compile any gdbproxy.
Yesterday I tried to check out the current version of the toolchain from
the CVS because I thought there may have been someone adding support for
new processors. CVS got stuck telling me:
cvs checkout: Updating msp430-libc4/include/msp430
cvs checkout: [13:34:46] waiting for root's lock in
/cvsroot/mspgcc/msp430-libc4/include/msp430
I guess there's something wrong with the repository ...
So here are my questions:
- is there a list of officially supported devices? or do I have to
compile and ask my gcc-binary?
- are MSP430F24x already supported (as they are JTAG-devices, there
shouldn't be any spy-by-wire related issues - or did something else
change?)?
- is there another (maybe official) way to build the toolchain (except
for the way explained in README-MAINTAINER.txt)?
- where do I get a gdbproxy that supports the F248?
- could anyone please fix the CVS repository?
Thanx for your help!
