I'm attempting to evaluate XIP (NCS 3.0.0) on the nRF53 with a mx25u256 flash chip.
I'm placing a simple test function in external flash:
#define XIP_TEST_INC (100)int xip_test_function(const int input){ return (input + XIP_TEST_INC);}
The project builds successfully and I can see the data is flashed at the expected location in the flash chip.

The chip is connected to QSPI as follows:
psels = <NRF_PSEL(QSPI_SCK, 0, 17)>, <NRF_PSEL(QSPI_IO0, 0, 13)>,<NRF_PSEL(QSPI_IO1, 0, 14)>,<NRF_PSEL(QSPI_IO2, 0, 15)>,
<NRF_PSEL(QSPI_IO3, 0, 16)>,<NRF_PSEL(QSPI_CSN, 0, 18)>;When the code runs and the XIP function is executed, I receive a bus fault.
It appears that it is attempting to execute the code in external flash, based on the address.
And here is an excerpt from the .map file:
0x0000000010120200 . = ALIGN (0x4) *xip_test.c.obj(SORT_BY_ALIGNMENT(.text.xip_test_function)) .text.xip_test_function 0x0000000010120200 0x4 app/libapp.a(xip_test.c.obj) 0x0000000010120200 xip_test_function 0x0000000010120204 . = ALIGN (0x4) 0x0000000010120204 __extflash_text_reloc_end = . 0x0000000010120200 __extflash_text_reloc_start = ADDR (.extflash_text_reloc) 0x0000000000000004 __extflash_text_reloc_size = (__extflash_text_reloc_end - __extflash_text_reloc_start) 0x0000000010120200 __extflash_text_rom_start = LOADADDR (.extflash_text_reloc) 0x0000000020002000 _ram_mpu_ro_region_start = ORIGIN (RAM) 0x0000000010120204 _ram_mpu_ro_region_end = .text 0x0000000000010358 0x37d48 0x0000000000010358 __text_region_start = .
I was using the extxip_smp_svr sample as a guide.
Perhaps I have missed something in the configuration?
Any suggestions?
