Hi,
so i have a strange problem with SDMMC and USB msc :
- custom board with H743ZI , 2x sd-card , 1x USB msc , for USB stick data;
- software using HAL, FatFS etc; made on IDE 1.10 , migrate ...13, 15, 17, 18, now 1.18.1 (actual)
- program working fine since > 1 year , but without DMA on sdmmc and usb/host ;
- for debug/messages with SWO, SWV working , as it should;
Now i tried using the DMA setting for sd and usb - no, nothing working.
SD stays on waiting for first data transfer, USB hangs in a loop: connecting-disconnected-connecting....
So i made a dummy test project, just debug + SDMMC1 + USB host, msc :
surprisingly works "out of the box", can mount sd and usb and read, ok; but no SWV at all - nothing!
Then i checked with CubeProgrammer (has SWV also) and it shows : something is sent, but hangs him up,
last thing CubeProg showing is this : <unknown packet> (then need to kill the prog, not any reaction)
And now the really strange thing: on same hardware, same 200M core clock, same settings for used pins:
- the old program cannot work with sd or usb + DMA , but sending SWO correct.
- the dummy program working fine with sd1+usb DMA enabled, but no SWO messages at all.
- the dummy program not working with sdmmc2+ DMA enabled, but no SWO messages at all.
- both programs working with sdmmc1+2+USB , but no DMA , and no SWO messages at dummy prog.
Then i compared the used/included :
- libs from HAL etc : same
- startup code : same
- looked in ioc files : "same" (i could not find any important diff, besides the many more pins + periph used in the program, dummy uses only the needed pins for debug, sd , usb)
So i have no idea, why this all is so different in errors , on same IDE, compiler, libs, settings , and same hardware .
Do i anything wrong ?
Would be great, if someone has a good idea...
+ update:
made a new project,dummiii, same hardware, at 200M, but only : debug + swv , nothing else.
and this .... can send swv, no problem !
so i copy the send "program" to first dummy-prog, but now : no debug, just :

Error: auto_probe failed.. debug dont remember the H743 ??? or what ?
+
then i set on dummiii optimizer to -O2 (was -O0 , default)
now, also no debug:

Exit.so flash ok, but then...exit.
perfect.
So checking, what was flashed, with CubeProgrammer, it shows:
Fine, dummiii flashed, and swo working. But IDE cannot debug any more , what it just flashed ??
After 3 attempts, unplug st-link, try again...suddenly it works again :
(Better, i dont write, what i think now.)
Then tried dummy , with optimizer set to -O3 , no debug , it tells:

Error executing event gdb-detach on target STM32H743ZITx.cm7:

hmmm - so check with connect on CubeProgrammer : hey, it has new info for me !!!! see:
btw I never played around with trustZone or chip protection levels.
Soo... ?
un-re plugging st-link , CubeProgrammer :
So still dummiii prog running, and swo works.
-------------------------------------------
Then set debug in IDE to GDB, un-re-plug st-link, debug ends:

Exit.--- and CubeProgrammer ..?
obviously dummy flashed, but still no correct swo:
So set debug to OCD, debug hangs in startup and exit. After third attempt, suddenly strt debug:
--- but still no swo , correct swo.
Finish for today.
Thx , @Nemui Trinomius , for thinking about - and even using your Dark Force!
Right, cache might be a problem, so i made all tests with d-cache OFF. (forgot to tell)
The hardware i didnt show, because : its working fine and has nothing special, just cpu , 3v3 linear supply, sd and usb ; and DACs and analog circuits have nothing to do with these problems; on my test board anyway not fitted, only the digital part + TFT connection.
But other problem i found : (my error) can the DMA reach the memory at all?
So looking at H7 bus matrix :
This might explain, why dma on sdmmc2 working, but not on sdmmc1, depending on the RAM, its using. (or i gave it...) So this is more or less clear now.
But still two problems i could not explain:
- on my old project , working fine without sd/usb DMA , no way to get it working with DMA (even with cache OFF and all data in main RAM); and/but the new test dummy progs running fine with DMA . But might be still a problem with the RAM, because on old prog 95% RAM used, on test progs only about 51% used. But no error message, the old prog with DMA just waiting for data - until timeout.
- SWO working fine there on old prog, but not on new "dummy" program;
and on new "dummiii" prog , same settings, SWO working ok.
The not working program SWO sending something , "unknown packet", but i have no idea, why this is always "wrong", with same settings in clock tree , same hardware, all optimizer settings tried - no change.
(And all on same hardware always.)
