Release notes for IAR Embedded Workbench for Arm version 9.50.1

Highlights

Command line debug capability for CI/CD activities and debugging using VS Code on Linux
The C-SPY command line utility (cspybat) and the Runtime Analysis tool (C-RUN) are now available on Linux for running applications in the Simulator, or on hardware using the I-jet and I-jet Trace debug probes. Debugging is also available on Linux when using the Visual Studio Code IAR C-SPY Debug Extension. Debugging on Linux is only available when using IAR Build Tools for Arm (BXARM).

C-SPY AVH connectivity
Enables virtual prototyping using the Arm Virtual Hardware cloud service. Improvements in the GDB Server debugger driver makes it possible to connect to Arm Virtual Hardware devices. It is recommended to use this in combination with the Arm AVH Debug Accelerator software.

Cortex A support in ST-LINK
Enables debugging ST STM32MP13x devices based on Cortex-A7 when using the ST-LINK debug probe.

AMP multicore debugging with J-Link
The advanced AMP (Asymmetric Multi-Processing) multicore debugging available for I-jet and CMSIS-DAP, is now also supported also by the C-SPY J-Link driver.

Generalplus G+LINK debug probe support
The Generalplus G+LINK debug probe is now natively supported by the C-SPY Debugger.

CMSIS-Toolbox/csolution support
Support for CMSIS-Toolbox, a set of command line tools for working with software packs in Open-CMSIS-Pack format. A CMSIS-Toolbox project is defined by a csolution file. Csolution files can now be directly read by the IAR Embedded Workbench IDE to populate the project manager view, allowing the flexibility of CMSIS-Toolbox to be mirrored in IAR Embedded Workbench and empowering the user with the IAR C-SPY debug experience. Support for importing, building, and debugging projects based on csolution.yml as standard IAR Embedded Workbench projects.

MISRA C:2012 Amendment 3
The Static Analysis tool C-STAT has extended its coverage of the MISRA C:2012 Coding Standard and now fully supports MISRA C:2012 Amendment 3. This Amendment adds one new directive and 23 new rules, as well as revising a number of existing guidelines and supporting material.

New GCC C language extensions
The following GCC C language extensions are now supported by the compiler
Structures with no members: struct Empty {}
Empty initializer: struct Color color = {};

Additional Arm ACLE support
Added support for the following Arm C Language Extensions subsets:

__ARM_FEATURE_CLZ
__ARM_FEATURE_QBIT
__ARM_FEATURE_DSP
__ARM_FEATURE_SAT
__ARM_FEATURE_SIMD32

Device support
