Hi Jean,

Yes, I wrote the Documentation to make it easier to test:

https://nuttx.apache.org/docs/latest/guides/semihosting.html

So, even following these steps you found the issue?

Hmm, probably you forgot this step:

Device Drivers  --->
    [ ] Serial Driver Support  ---- (disable serial driver)


But yes, maybe using your suggestion will work even when Serial is disabled.

Could you please submit it as a PR in our github?

BR,

Alan
