One Quick Observation , V2.23 takes so much time as compare to V2.22 ( windows 64 ) , for Reconnecting MCU & Throwing Error  after setting RDP2. approx 45 seconds by V2.23. while 5 seconds for V2.22 version.

Hello ​@bsuthar,

Could you specify the MCU you’re using? Or are you seing this across multiple devices?

What is the target, and what debug probe?

MCU : STM32F303Rb

Debugger : STLINK-V2 

I tried with same MCU with 11 Different Custom boards.

I tried with same MCU with 11 Different Custom boards.

How “different”?  11 instances of the same design, or 11 different designs?

What about ST boards ?

 

Debugger : STLINK-V2 

A genuine one ?

@Andrew Neil 

Debugger : STLINK-V2  , yes Genuine Only. has Back side series Number. Also, all other operation works fine with V2.23 itself.

we tested on same design board of 11 pcs.

Tried back with V2.22 , and ALL works fine, now.

@Andrew Neil 

Are you suggesting me to set RDP2 level on ST Nucleo Boards and then check ?

Or just wanna to use it as external debugger ?

Hi ​@bsuthar,

No need to lose boards on your side, I could reproduce what you’re seing (You can reproduce without setting RDP to 0xCC by unplugging power on STM32CubeProgrammer reconnect).

I’m studying why the timeout has been increased and will get back to you ASAP.

PS: Since you’re setting RDP to level 2, you can use the noreconnect option in CLI as a temporary workaround.

Okay, ​@Aziz BRIGUI ,

Will await your update.

Reconnecting is just for ensuring that RDP2 set action executed succesfully.

Hi ​@bsuthar,

After investigation, turns out that this happened after the upgrade of QT6 in STM32CubeProgrammer v2.23 (from QT6.6 to QT6.10). 

This is logged internally (internal tracking number 0064471). My guess is that some delay implementation changed inside the framework (But this is just a guess, issue is being investigated by our development team).

Kind regards,

Aziz
