Debugger hangs at SCB_EnableDCache();

[gvenkatr13]

When I'm enabling DMA and run the code, the debugger hangs at "SCB_EnableDCache();" even though the function is correctly excuting when I go step by step. Also as seen in the examples the problem gets solved when using a static declaration  "static void CPU_CACHE_Enable(void);"
Is it the issue with the debugger or the code.

Hello @gvenkatr13 

As recommendation, I invite you to review this FAQ: 

DMA is not working on STM32H7 devices - STMicroelectronics Community

Where did you enable the cache? is that possible to share your code?

[gvenkatr13]

It was automatically generate by cubeMX in main() when I enable DMA.

 

/* Enable the CPU Cache */

 

/* Enable I-Cache---------------------------------------------------------*/

SCB_EnableICache();

 

/* Enable D-Cache---------------------------------------------------------*/

SCB_EnableDCache();

@gvenkatr13 Do not try to single-step thru SCB_EnableDCache and its friends. This is a known behavior. Whether it is a bug [with complex inline functions] or not IMHO does not matter, just don't do this. Converting the inline to a normal function may help, but ST won't change it because these header files come from upstream (ARM CMSIS).

Any idea on what's causing the delay when debugging the code? is it H/W related or S/W related?

[Pavel A.]

Delay? which delay? The Eclipse debugger is quite heavy so not surprising that it is slow. A machine with fast SSD drive and large RAM may help.
