problem booting the program

Started by rrkshah17 April 5, 2004
i had put a message few days ago but it was not posted. i m having
problem in loading the program(.out file). after comppiling and
linking the file, when i try to load the file on 5402 DSK, it says
error:file loader
address 0x.... can't be verified
please check target memorty and memory map

i figured out it was the problem with all the example programs.this
message repeats for all the sections defined. EX: .bss section
.stack section .data section etc. for each section i ll get the above
said error. like if 10 sections are defined 10 times the error will
come with all different addresses.
i couldn't figure out how to solve the error. if anyone knows
anything about plz reply back.i have just started workin on kit and
gettin problem.
i hope that i have presented my problem well



Hi!

I have a similar problem with 0xFF70 addres. In my case the problem appears
because my external RAM was not writable for the DSP because It was badly
connected. If the wrong section are in external Memory verifies the welds.
Good bye!

Normally if I get a problem like that a comprehensive
reset usually fixes it. Something like: exit CCS, shut
down pc, unplug power to DSK, unplug power to emulator
if you use one, apply power back to those two, hit the
manual reset button on the DSK, powerup pc, reset the
emulator, open CCS, run the GEL C5402_DSK_Init then
try to load the program. That may be overkill, but if
any reset will work, that one will. Another thing that
happens is if you alter some of the CPLD control
registers to enable the Flash memory or alter software
wait-state registers and such, CCS may really have a
problem reading or writing to an external memory
address. By default, CCS tries to load your interrupt
vector table into external SRAM so if the Flash is
enabled it will not be able to do that and will give
error messages. But, I doubt you are linking things
like the .stack section into external memory so I
don't know what the problem might be there. I can't
imagine why it would have a problem verifying the
dsp's internal memory. Hope that helps, -micah
