Hi all,
This is my first time posting here.
I have a problem with STM32 VSCode Extension v3.5.1 where the DMA on my STM32 H7 (STM32H725RGV6) doesnt work.
I tested this with UART TX and ADC Circular DMA mode.
The function HAL_UART_Transmit_DMA() returns HAL_OK at first, and then returns HAL_BUSY for the next calls. No data was transmitted at all recieved on the serial terminal.
UART and DMA blocking functions and with IT works fine.
The same setup with CubeIDE and with the older extension v2.5.1 works fine.
Any input is greatly appreciated.
Many thanks
Steps to replicate:
Start a new stm32 vscode project with STM32H7 like normal and enable uart1 (with all interrupts) and sw debug, max clock 550MHz with HSI.
call HAL_UART_Transmit_DMA() and it doesnt work :)
Here is my full main.c code though:
