4.1 Introduction
This chapter presents common debugging methods used during BSP
development. Many of these methods are presented in earlier chapters of this
document as part of the development process. This chapter is intended to provide
you with an overview of the debugging methods available and describe how and
why each method is typically used.
Stages of BSP Debugging
There are three major stages of debugging during BSP development. They are:
board bringup, creation of a downloadable image, and creation of a boot ROM
image. Not all stages are necessary for all projects.
