esp32-c3 native usb problems

[john11]

I'm have a custom rev 3 esp32-c3 wroom module with gpio 18/19 connected to USB D-/+.
I'm using platform.io and have openocd v0.10.0-esp32-20210721

When I connect the board I can see the following device appears:

Code: Select all

Status     Class           FriendlyName                 InstanceId

OK         USBDevice       USB JTAG/serial debug unit   USB\VID_303A...

Using openocd I get the following:
.\openocd -f board/esp32c3-builtin.cfg

Any ideas why?

Using esptool I get the following:

What OS is this on?

[john11]

Its on Windows 10. I just verified the same version of openocd on Linux where it works just fine.
Is upload suppose to work with both esptool and esp-work?

[john11]

That bug is marked as resolved in the 21/07 release that I tried.
Are you suppose to use esptool or esp-prog to upload a firmware to the module using the io18/19 native usb?

[chegewara]

No, i am using just regular "idf.py flash" to upload firmware, but i didnt test with PIO.
The problem i got with openocd was that i had to add elf file name in command line.

Im not sure if this can help you to solve the issue, but i thought i will provide that info.
I missed the fact its working for you with linux, my OS is Ubuntu 20, so i cant help you windows, sorry.

The built-in JTAG requires some drivers with special setup. The drivers can be installed by one the latest versions of the Windows Tools Installer or directly running the command from
https://docs.espressif.com/projects/esp ... sb-drivers

[john11]

Hi Roland,

I already had the driver installed using PowerShell cmd.
Anyway, I found Zadig where I found two "USB JTAG/serial debug unit" (Interface 0 and 2).

Interface 0
==========
Driver "usbser v10.0.19041.906" [green arrow ==>] WinUSB (v6.1.7600.16385)
WCID had red cross mark

Interface 2
==========
Driver "usbser v10.0.19041.906" [green arrow ==>] WinUSB (v6.1.7600.16385)
WCID had green check mark

Then I replaced the driver using Zadig to libusbK for both interfaces and after this it seems to work (despite getting LIBUSB_ERROR_NOT_SUPPORTED):

Does that look okay from openocd point of view?

Not Roland, but that OpenOCD output indeed looks like what you'd expect for a working JTAG setup.

[john11]

It seems to be working. But very slow:

Any ideas why it's so slow?
