Secure debug access

Non-secure debug access

In non-secure mode, access to certain system resources (memory, peripherals, ...) is limited to protect resources which are classified as secure. The following list gives an overview of restrictions which need to be considered:

  • The reset functionality (via SYSRESETREQ) can be disabled for non-secure mode using the AIRCR.SYSRESETREQS bit. Unfortunately, the debugger cannot read the SYSRESETREQS bit in non-secure mode thus cannot determine if reset functionality is available or not. The only possibility to determine if it's available or not is to issue a reset via AIRCR.SYSRESETREQ and to check if DHCSR.S_RESET_ST gets set afterwards. If not, reset is not available in the current configuration.
