nRF52805 Secure bootloader with iar embedded workbench.

Hi,

I am using s112_nrf52_7.2.0_softdevice with nRF5_SDK_17.1.0 and iar embedded workbench. I can flash and run the application without any problem but when i try to program secure_bootloader_ble_s112_pca10040e or secure_bootloader_ble_s112_pca10040e_debug I get harfault exception (A coprocessor access error has occurred (CFSR.NOCP) while i am using FLOAT_ABI_SOFT. Here is my linker configuration.

  • Yes, I followed the link.

  • Could you try this address instead, 0x27fff

  • Still the same harfault exception.

  • Did you select nRF52805 in the General Options?

    Also note this from the SDK release notes:

    *****
    Note for IAR 8 users:
    
    When using IAR 8, you must apply the following workaround in the MDK:
    
    - Apply a patch to modules/nrfx/mdk/compiler_abstraction.h at line 140
     (fix the '__ALIGN()' macro definition): use the argument 'n' in the macro expansion instead of 'x'.
    
    -------------------
    
    Libraries for IAR 8 require wchar_t to be of size 32 bits while IAR 7 requires 16 bits.
      
    To run a project using IAR 8, follow these instructions:
     1. Open the IAR project in IAR 8. The IAR workbench will automatically generate an IAR 8 compatible project file.
     2. If the project contains one of the precompiled libraries listed below, replace it
        with the IAR 8 compatible alternative (there are no projects targeting nRF51 in this SDK).
     3. Save the project.
     4. When building the project, you might get the warning: "The header file 'cmsis_iar.h' is obsolete and should not be used. [...]".
        - The problem is described in DevZone post: https://devzone.nordicsemi.com/f/nordic-q-a/31123/iar-ewarm-8-22-1-complains-about-cmsis_iar-h
          The solution is to remove all occurrences of #include <cmsis_iar.h>.
         
    The affected libraries are:
     - micro-ecc crypto:
        - IAR7: Includes library located in the folder named “…_iar\…”.
        - IAR8: Switch to using the library from the folder named “…_armgcc\…”.
     - nrf_cc310, nrf_cc310_bl, and nrf_oberon:
        - IAR7: Link to a library where “short_wchar” is part of the folder name.
        - IAR8: Link to a library without “short_wchar” in the folder name.
     - Gazell, NFC Tag, and 802.15.4:
        - IAR7: Includes the library where the file name ends with “_iar”.
        - IAR8: Switch to using the library with similar file name that ends with “_gcc”.
