I am trying to connect ICD-3 to PIC24E micro-controller, and I'm finding difficulty in detecting the device. All the recommendations, as in ICD-3 interface document has been ensured, and still on sending command via PRD line of ICD-3, the device is showing an error of Target ID not detected. The MCLR line is pulled by a 10kOhm resister as well. Is there anything else I have to ensure during communication and have I missed something in between. I have attached the ICD-3 document link as well. (https://ww1.microchip.com/downloads/en/DeviceDoc/DS-51765C.pdf).

I am writing a driverkit extension whose goal is to block some categories of USB devices, such as flash drives. The driver should block (match to) any device of the relevant device classes, except those, which are whitelisted (based on their vendor and product ID). The whitelist can be set dynamically by user of the application.
The question is, how to pass these data to the driver as reading from a file or something like Windows registry is not available in the DriverKit. The tricky part is that the driver requires the whitelist data before the device is matched.
From what I understood, rejection of device is possible by returning an error from Start() method and returning from it prematurely. I got an idea to send the data while the driver is running this function, however this is not possible as the communication via IOUserClass is not available until the Start method returns.
Is this somehow doable?
As far as I'm aware, communicating with user space apps from the initial Start() method is not possible from DriverKit extensions. As you say, IOUserClients are the mechanism to use for user space communication, and those aren't available until the service is started and registered. You can have your driver match IOResources/IOUserResources so it is always loaded, but each matched service starts up an independed process of your dext, and I'm not aware of a way to directly communicate between these instances.
If I understand you correctly, you're trying to block other drivers from acquiring the device. I don't think the solution you have in mind will help you with this. If you return success from Start(), your dext will drive the device. If you return failure, no driver is loaded for the device, because matching has already concluded. So other drivers would never get a chance anyway, regardless of whether the device is on your allow-list or deny-list.
It's new in DriverKit 21 (i.e. macOS Monterey), and I've not had a chance to try it yet, but there is an API for reading files, OSMappedFile. I would imagine that the DriverKit sandbox will have something to say about which files a dext can open, but this seems like an avenue worth exploring whether you can open configuration files this way.
Note that none of this will help you during early boot, as your dext will never be considered for matching at that time. And you may not be able to get required entitlements from Apple to build a dext which matches USB device classes rather than specific product/vendor ID patterns. (Apologies for repeating myself, but other users may come across this answer and not be aware of this issue.)
I want to build something with Raspberry Pi Zero and write in Go,
I never tried bluetooth before and my goal is;
Sending a dynamic packet which it will change every second, an iOS app will expand this message and with a button, client will send a message back without a connection.
Is Bluetooth Advertising what I am looking for and do you know any GoLang library for it? Where should I start?
There are quite a lot of parts to your question. If you want to be connection-less then the BLE roles are Broadcaster (beacon) and Observer (scanner). There are a number of "standard" beacon formats out there. They are summarized nicely on this cheat sheet
Of course you can create your own format as these are using either the Service Data or Manufacturing Data in a BLE advertisement.
On Linux (Raspberry Pi) the official Bluetooth stack is BlueZ which documents the API's available at: https://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/bluetooth/bluez.git/tree/doc
If you want to be connection-less then each device is going to have to change it's role regularly. This requires a bit of careful thought on how long each is listening and broadcasting as you don't want them always talking at the same time and listening at the same time.
You might find the following article of interest to get you started with BLE and Go Lang:

My team has been struggling with a pretty strange issue while using the WinRT/C++ APIs for Windows to connect to both a MIDI port and receive BLE notifications through a proprietary service on the same device.
The WinRT/C++ library itself is really nice and provides easy and modern C++ interfaces to access the managed Windows runtime classes.
I've pushed a sample repo to Github where we've replicated the issue with a minimal example.
The repo's readme goes over the problem in detail, but I'll post the relevant bits here for completeness.
The sample program is performing roughly these steps:
Check for available MIDI devices using a DeviceWatcher.
Check for available Bluetooth LE devices using another instance of a DeviceWatcher.
Match discovered MIDI and BluetoothLE devices on their ContainerId property (see DeviceInfo for details). This is the method JUCE employs in the native WinRT code for their library, and works as expected.
Open the MIDI port and attach a handler to the MessageReceived event (see the code).
This causes the system to create a connection to the Bluetooth LE device. The program detects this state change, creates a BluetoothLEDevice, we perform GATT service discovery and attach a handler to the ValueChanged event for the characteristic we're interested in notifications from (see the code).
The program then counts how many MIDI messages are received on each port and how many BLE notifications are received from the corresponding device.
The behaviour we notice is that data from the most recently connected device streams just fine, while the throughput for the others is severly limited. We are at quite a standstill regarding this issue, and are not sure where the problem may lie.
We are at quite a standstill here. I'd be more willing to accept it if all the devices would exhibit this behaviour, but that's not the case. Is there any reason that creating both a MidiInPort and an BluetoothLEDevice from the same peripheral should cause this issue?
A BLE radio can only receive or send at any given time. And therefore only communicate with one device at any given time. It uses a scheduler to allocate radio time for every device when you have many devices. That way a second connection can "interrupt" a connection event from another device, decreasing the throughput for that device.

I am working with openmote-cc2538 for the project: https://github.com/cetic/6lbr/wiki
Here when I was trying to flash openmote with this command
sudo make TARGET=cc2538dk BOARD=openmote-CC2538 bootload0/dev/ttyUSB0 slip-radio.upload
This error message is displayed
ERROR:Cant CONNECT TO TARGET:Ensure bootloader is started(no answer on sync sequence)
cc2538 bsl.py script is available for uploading binary to openmote. But I don't have much experience about this. Can anybody give me some suggestions regarding how to proceed??
Grab a scope and probe different digital I/O pins on the CC2538. Typically a bootloader will initialize all the ports on the chip and you will see them change state, which is an indication that the bootloader is indeed running. I would guess one of the LEDs would change state as well (which doesn't require a scope).
Im using MCP25625 which is MCP2515+integrated MCP2551 and trying to send messages in a loop.
For some reson I dont see any signal at all on CANH, CANL lines.
SPI communication works correctly
I use software reset procedure
There is clear 20Mhz sinewave from Crystal
There is TXCAN signal
At the moment there is nothing at all connected to CANL,CANH, just the probe.
I also tried to run in LOOPBACK mode and it works, but in the NORMAL modethere is nothing coming out.
Seems like transciever is broken? I changed 2 chips already, so it shouldnt be the problem.
Any suggestion guys?
Schematics
have you considered the modes of operation of the CAN transceiver?
In your schematic, the pins value is not clear.
If you have connected it to the MCU, Please pull it to LOW to select the normal operation mode for the transceiver (it is different configuration then the CAN controller settings, hence might cause some confusion!).
Controlling it by MCU is a good choice as it gives more control to prevent network communication from being blocked, due to a CAN controller which is out of control.
Else, connect it to ground to ensure normal operation mode specifically for the build in transceiver.
I have referred the data-sheet's of MCP25625, MCP2515 and TJA1050 to bring out this conclusion.
TJA1050 has pin-S for selecting high-speed mode and silent mode. Both modes are similar to normal mode and standby mode respectively of the transceiver of MCP25625.
Also, pin-S configuration in TJA1050 is similar to pin-STBY configuration in MCP25625.
0(LOW) for high-speed/normal mode of TJA1050/MCP25625-Transceiver
1(HIGH) for silent/standby mode of TJA1050/MCP25625-Transceiver
Hope this helps.
At the moment there is nothing at all connected to CANL,CANH, just the probe.
Hope you have connected the termination resistor? It is on the schematic, but ...
