Hi,
I am trying to use gdb from the command line to debug a Maix Bit, the k210 chip, using Windows 10 , with a Sipeed-USB-JTAG-TTL-RISC-V-Debugger and when I follow these instructions…
Tutorial of Building Bare Metal Debugging & Development Environment for Maix Bit (K210)
everything works, until I try to load my hello_world example in gdb and then I get this
(gdb) load
Loading section .text, size 0xb0ed8 lma 0x80000000
Load failed
Any idea on what I am doing wrong ?
Openocd server is running in verbose mode (openocd -f k210.cfg -d) and I can see this error
Debug: 4377 8039800 gdb_server.c:3358 gdb_input_inner(): received packet: ‘X80000000,3e20:!\xa8\xef\xbe\xad\xde\x01\x00\x01\x00\x00’…

I have done the following
- Downloaded and installed the kendryte standalone SDK, kendryte toolchain, openocd, drivers (zadig)
- Setup the usb jtag risc v dongle
- Build the hello_world example
My openocd k210.cfg and a corresponding ft2232c.cfg were taken a website (but I cant put anymore than 21 links in my post ?)

Building hello_world
I am building the hello_world different to the above mentioned bare metal instructions, as they dont work. I am doing this
set PATH=X:\ToolChains\riscv\toolchain\bin:%PATH%
cd src\hello_world
mkdir build
cd build
cmake -G “MinGW Makefiles” …/…/…
make
Then to run gdb I do
cd X:\ToolChains\riscv\sdk\src\hello_world\build
…\toolchain\bin\riscv64-unknown-elf-gdb.exe hello_world
Then to run the binary I do
set print pretty on
target remote localhost:3333
monitor reset halt
load
