Support for Renesas RA2A1 (MF3 Flash architecture)

[mtk11]

Trying to use it with Renesas RA2A1 and getting the following:

WARNING: "Debug component" !match expected "Generic IP component"
Found renesas chip (R7FA2A1AB3CNF   ) with Flash Root Table and unsupported Part ID 0x1b0 please report it
0x80000000: 0x00000004000a3004 Non ARM component ignored

Support for this series ?

There is experimental support for Renesas parts thanks to @perigoso's #1133, we'll take their lead on how to deal with that. v1.9 is currently in a feature freeze pending release of v1.9rc1, so this will get targeted to v1.10.

[perigoso]

that should mean the part actually got probed, it just used the brute force method as it doesn't have that id in the "database", does it not show up as an attachable target?

[perigoso]

I don't know what WARNING: "Debug component" !match expected "Generic IP component" is about, I don't remember if it is expected, but the 0x80000000: 0x00000004000a3004 Non ARM component ignored is about the secure access on those parts and can safely be ignored provided you don't expect to debug a part with debug access locked

does it not show up as an attachable target?

(gdb) mon s

No. Att Driver

[perigoso]

ah, that means that target is probably suffering the same as #1222, you won't be able to flash the target, but you should be able to attach and debug

In the meantime, we can add the ID and close this in favor of that issue

[perigoso]

I meant to have this closed with the addition of the ID, but that is fine, I'll PR that in a sec anyway
