For the four GigaDevice boards we currently support in Embeetle, GigaDevice sent me a working Eclipse-based project for each of them. Also, GigaDevice forked OpenOCD and made sure that these four boards functioned properly in their OpenOCD fork (see GitHub - GigaDevice-Semiconductor/openocd: A fork of the OpenOCD project, used to build the xPack OpenOCD). That was about two years ago.
I’m currently trying to integrate the GD32W515T-START board that we received from GigaDevice in Nuremberg. I don’t have a working Eclipse-based project for this board. So I tried to figure out another way.
Unfortunately, I can’t find certain files and data, making it impossible for me to integrate this board in Embeetle. More details below.
Downloaded sample projects
On this page (https://www.gd32mcu.com/en/download/7?kw=GD32W5) I downloaded the GD32W51x Firmware Library:
I unpack the library:
Missing data
Unfortunately, the following data is mising:
- There’s no linkerscript.
- If compiling with the
arm-none-eabi-gcccompiler - which flags should I use? - The latest OpenOCD fork from GigaDevice has no target file for the
GD32W515TIQ6chip (see openocd/tcl/target at xpack · GigaDevice-Semiconductor/openocd · GitHub)
If GigaDevice can update their OpenOCD (adding a target file for the GD32W515TIQ6 chip) and send me a working Eclipse-based project - then I have everything I need. Alternatively, if GigaDevice has no working Eclipse-based project, they can also send me the compiler flags and a linkerscript.
