/** @page thelist Pending and Open Tasks
|
|
|
|
This page lists pending and open tasks being considered or worked upon
|
|
by the OpenOCD community.
|
|
|
|
|
|
Items with a current patch available should include a link to its
|
|
posting on the openocd-developer mailing list archives.
|
|
|
|
Some items may be in progress, usually indicated by the individual whose
|
|
initials in parentheses following it. A key for decoding these initials
|
|
appears after The List.
|
|
|
|
Most items are open for the taking, but please post to the mailing list
|
|
before spending much time working on anything lists here. The community
|
|
may have evolved an idea since it was added here.
|
|
|
|
Feel free to send patches to add or clarify items on this list, too.

|
- JTAG/TAP changes:
|
|
- update all drivers to use tap_get_tms_path_len API.
|
|
- use tap_set_state everywhere to allow logging TAP state transitions
|
|
- rename other tap_states to use standard JTAG names (suggested by ML)
|
|
- retire jtag_add_end_state() and replace w/global variable. This also
|
|
removes TAP_INVALID as an argument to jtag_add_xxxx(). The global variable
|
|
as argument to jtag_add_xxxx() should eventually be phased out, but
|
|
the global variable is useful in an interim phase where one needs to
|
|
be bug by bug compatible before each change can be tested. Suggested
|
|
by ØH. Michael Bruck also interested in this.
|
|
|
|

Ref? How could this be made to work given targets extensive need
|
|
for events, etc.? What about the target library?
