ESP32s3 as JTAG debugger (Problem)

Postby alhimik » Thu Aug 08, 2024 12:48 pm

Hello. I'm trying to use ESP32s3 as JTAG debugger for my ESP32d and after spend some time it seems I'm stuck. There is too many ongoing errors and too little understanding of what happening.

Port layout: ESP32s3, with ESP USB Bridge firmware, have 2 physical usb device and 3 logical (switch via reset):

1: marked as COM is standalone usb to serial converter using for firmware flashing and ESP32s3 internal serial logging.
dmesg
[23265.938096] usb 2-1.2.3: new full-speed USB device number 8 using ehci-pci
[23266.031406] usb 2-1.2.3: New USB device found, idVendor=1a86, idProduct=55d3, bcdDevice= 4.45

[23266.031966] cdc_acm 2-1.2.3:1.0: ttyACM0: USB ACM device

2.1: marked as USB ( idProduct=1001) it seems a internal JTAG debugger. Openocd unable to connect it wich scenario board/esp32-bridge.cfg even if update scenario idProduct value (1001). This is only device marked as JTAG debugger.
dmesg
[23436.474010] usb 2-1.2.3: USB disconnect, device number 10

[23436.753215] cdc_acm 2-1.2.3:1.0: ttyACM0: USB ACM device

2.2 marked as USB ( idProduct=1002) this is right device accordingly to script board/esp32-bridge.cfg, but this device never correctly fit to the system (ubuntu, debian, windows 10) and endpoint never create.

[23423.627211] usb 2-1.2.3: new full-speed USB device number 9 using ehci-pci
[23423.722969] usb 2-1.2.3: New USB device found, idVendor=303a, idProduct=1002, bcdDevice= 0.01

[23423.722985] usb 2-1.2.3: Manufacturer: Espressif Systems Co. Ltd.
[23423.722987] usb 2-1.2.3: SerialNumber: xxxxxxxxxxx
[23423.723612] usb 2-1.2.3: can't set config #1, error -32
or
[23432.920282] usb 2-1.2.3: device descriptor read/64, error -32
or
few others errors

Currently i'm using ( idProduct=1002) as JTAG port, debugging session log:
Info : only one transport option; autoselecting 'jtag'
Info : esp_usb_jtag: VID set to 0x303a and PID to 0x1002

Error: libusb_bulk_write error: LIBUSB_ERROR_IO
Please refer to the troubleshooting guide below to identify the problem.

Error never changes(even if target is not connected), it seems USB phy totally broken for me. Unfortunately I don't have a standalone debugger to check esp32d, so i'm not understand where problem is. But JTAG it self seems to work as esp32s3 able to debug itself with correct target.

Also i'm unable to retrieve serial debug via any available usb port. At COM there only internal debug logs, they say that logs are received until ovf happens (probably no one take it). idProduct=1001 it seems dead, no activity. idProduct=1002 has no valid endpoint device.

Any ideas? maybe there is a more suitable platform for such questions? do not suggest github, it is not a platform for discussion.
