Why am I getting "debug domain is off" error message when using Xtensa Tensilica OCD?

304 views Asked by At

I'm trying to start Tensilica's Xtensa OCD Daemon by typing xt-ocd.exe in the appropriate directory but I keep getting a warning stating that "Debug domain is OFF (PWRSTAT:0x0)!" followed by an error message saying "Cannot set JTAG Usable bit while debug module is off (PWRSTAT=0x0)!". I have made sure that my external debugger is actually powered. It seems like the "debug domain" (whatever that means!) is off and I don't know how to turn it on. There's virtually no documentation on this.

Has anyone had the same problem or does anyone know how to solve this issue? Thanks in advance.

I had this error when the Xtensa processor was in reset mode. Check to ensure that the processor is not in reset.
