OpenOCD was created by Dominic Rath as part of a diploma thesis written at the
|
|
University of Applied Sciences Augsburg (@uref{http://www.fh-augsburg.de}).
|
|
Since that time, the project has grown into an active open-source project,
|
|
supported by a diverse community of software and hardware developers from
|
|
around the world.
|
|
|
|
@section What is OpenOCD?
|
|
|
|
The Open On-Chip Debugger (OpenOCD) aims to provide debugging,
|
|
in-system programming and boundary-scan testing for embedded target
|
|
devices.
|
|
|
|
@b{JTAG:} OpenOCD uses a ``hardware interface dongle'' to communicate
|
|
with the JTAG (IEEE 1149.1) compliant taps on your target board.
|
|
|
|
@b{Dongles:} OpenOCD currently supports many types of hardware dongles: USB
|
|
based, parallel port based, and other standalone boxes that run
|
|
OpenOCD internally. @xref{JTAG Hardware Dongles}.
|
|
|
|
@b{GDB Debug:} It allows ARM7 (ARM7TDMI and ARM720t), ARM9 (ARM920T,
|
|
ARM922T, ARM926EJ--S, ARM966E--S), XScale (PXA25x, IXP42x) and
|
|
Cortex-M3 (Stellaris LM3 and ST STM32) based cores to be
|
|
debugged via the GDB protocol.
|
|
|
|
@b{Flash Programing:} Flash writing is supported for external CFI
|
|
compatible NOR flashes (Intel and AMD/Spansion command set) and several
|
|
internal flashes (LPC2000, AT91SAM7, STR7x, STR9x, LM3, and
|
|
STM32x). Preliminary support for various NAND flash controllers
|
|
(LPC3180, Orion, S3C24xx, more) controller is included.
|
|
|
|
@section OpenOCD Web Site
|
|
|
|
The OpenOCD web site provides the latest public news from the community:
|
|
|
|
@uref{http://openocd.berlios.de/web/}
|
|
|
|
@section Latest User's Guide:
|
|
|
|
The user's guide you are now reading may not be the latest one
|
|
available. A version for more recent code may be available.
|
|
Its HTML form is published irregularly at:
|
|
|
|
@uref{http://openocd.berlios.de/doc/}
|
|
|
|
PDF form is likewise published at:
|
|
|
|
@uref{http://openocd.berlios.de/doc/pdf/}
|
|
|
|
@section OpenOCD User's Forum
|
|
|
|
There is an OpenOCD forum (phpBB) hosted by SparkFun:
|
|
|
|
@uref{http://forum.sparkfun.com/viewforum.php?f=18}

@chapter OpenOCD Developer Resources
|
|
@cindex developers
|
|
|
|
If you are interested in improving the state of OpenOCD's debugging and
|
|
testing support, new contributions will be welcome. Motivated developers
|
|
can produce new target, flash or interface drivers, improve the
|
|
documentation, as well as more conventional bug fixes and enhancements.
|
|
|
|
The resources in this chapter are available for developers wishing to explore
|
|
or expand the OpenOCD source code.
|
|
|
|
@section OpenOCD Subversion Repository
|
|
|
|
The ``Building From Source'' section provides instructions to retrieve
|
|
and and build the latest version of the OpenOCD source code.
|
|
@xref{Building OpenOCD}.
|
|
|
|
Developers that want to contribute patches to the OpenOCD system are
|
|
@b{strongly} encouraged to base their work off of the most recent trunk
|
|
revision. Patches created against older versions may require additional
|
|
work from their submitter in order to be updated for newer releases.
|
|
|
|
@section Doxygen Developer Manual
|
|
|
|
During the development of the 0.2.0 release, the OpenOCD project began
|
|
providing a Doxygen reference manual. This document contains more
|
|
technical information about the software internals, development
|
|
processes, and similar documentation:
|
|
|
|
@uref{http://openocd.berlios.de/doc/doxygen/index.html}
|
|
|
|
This document is a work-in-progress, but contributions would be welcome
|
|
to fill in the gaps. All of the source files are provided in-tree,
|
|
listed in the Doxyfile configuration in the top of the repository trunk.
|
|
|
|
@section OpenOCD Developer Mailing List
|
|
|
|
The OpenOCD Developer Mailing List provides the primary means of
|
|
communication between developers:
|
|
|
|
@uref{https://lists.berlios.de/mailman/listinfo/openocd-development}
|
|
|
|
All drivers developers are enouraged to also subscribe to the list of
|
|
SVN commits to keep pace with the ongoing changes:
|
|
|
|

|
|
@section Pre-Built Tools
|
|
If you are interested in getting actual work done rather than building
|
|
OpenOCD, then check if your interface supplier provides binaries for
|
|
you. Chances are that that binary is from some SVN version that is more
|
|
stable than SVN trunk where bleeding edge development takes place.
|
|
|
|
@section Packagers Please Read!
|
|
|
|
You are a @b{PACKAGER} of OpenOCD if you
|
|
|
|
@enumerate
|
|
@item @b{Sell dongles} and include pre-built binaries
|
|
@item @b{Supply tools} i.e.: A complete development solution
|
|
@item @b{Supply IDEs} like Eclipse, or RHIDE, etc.
|
|
@item @b{Build packages} i.e.: RPM files, or DEB files for a Linux Distro
|
|
@end enumerate
|
|
|
|
As a @b{PACKAGER}, you will experience first reports of most issues.
|
|
When you fix those problems for your users, your solution may help
|
|
prevent hundreds (if not thousands) of other questions from other users.
|
|
|
|
If something does not work for you, please work to inform the OpenOCD
|
|
developers know how to improve the system or documentation to avoid
|
|
future problems, and follow-up to help us ensure the issue will be fully
|
|
resolved in our future releases.
|
|
|
|
That said, the OpenOCD developers would also like you to follow a few
|
|
suggestions:
|
|
|
|
@enumerate
|
|
@item @b{Always build with printer ports enabled.}
|
|
@item @b{Try to use LIBFTDI + LIBUSB where possible. You cover more bases.}
|
|
@end enumerate
|
|
|
|
@itemize @bullet
|
|
@item @b{Why YES to LIBFTDI + LIBUSB?}
|
|
@itemize @bullet
|
|
@item @b{LESS} work - libusb perhaps already there
|
|
@item @b{LESS} work - identical code, multiple platforms
|
|
@item @b{MORE} dongles are supported
|
|
@item @b{MORE} platforms are supported
|
|
@item @b{MORE} complete solution
|
|
@end itemize
|
|
@item @b{Why not LIBFTDI + LIBUSB} (i.e.: ftd2xx instead)?
|
|
@itemize @bullet
|
|
@item @b{LESS} speed - some say it is slower
|
|
@item @b{LESS} complex to distribute (external dependencies)
|
|
@end itemize

|
@section Building From Source
|
|
|
|
You can download the current SVN version with an SVN client of your choice from the
|
|
following repositories:
|
|
|
|
@uref{svn://svn.berlios.de/openocd/trunk}
|
|
|
|
or
|
|
|
|
@uref{http://svn.berlios.de/svnroot/repos/openocd/trunk}
|
|
|
|
Using the SVN command line client, you can use the following command to fetch the
|
|
latest version (make sure there is no (non-svn) directory called "openocd" in the
|
|
current directory):
|
|
|
|
@example
|
|
svn checkout svn://svn.berlios.de/openocd/trunk openocd
|
|
@end example
|
|
|
|
If you prefer GIT based tools, the @command{git-svn} package works too:
|
|
|
|
@example
|
|
git svn clone -s svn://svn.berlios.de/openocd
|
|
@end example
|
|
|
|
Building OpenOCD from a repository requires a recent version of the
|
|
GNU autotools (autoconf >= 2.59 and automake >= 1.9).
|
|
For building on Windows,
|
|
you have to use Cygwin. Make sure that your @env{PATH} environment variable contains no
|
|
other locations with Unix utils (like UnxUtils) - these can't handle the Cygwin
|
|
paths, resulting in obscure dependency errors (This is an observation I've gathered
|
|
from the logs of one user - correct me if I'm wrong).
|
|
|
|
You further need the appropriate driver files, if you want to build support for
|
|
a FTDI FT2232 based interface:
|
|
|
|
@itemize @bullet
|
|
@item @b{ftdi2232} libftdi (@uref{http://www.intra2net.com/opensource/ftdi/})
|
|
@item @b{ftd2xx} libftd2xx (@uref{http://www.ftdichip.com/Drivers/D2XX.htm})
|
|
@item When using the Amontec JTAGkey, you have to get the drivers from the Amontec
|
|
homepage (@uref{http://www.amontec.com}). The JTAGkey uses a non-standard VID/PID.
|
|
@end itemize
|
|
|
|
libftdi is supported under Windows. Do not use versions earlier than 0.14.
|
|
|
|
In general, the D2XX driver provides superior performance (several times as fast),
|
|
but has the draw-back of being binary-only - though that isn't that bad, as it isn't
|
|
a kernel module, only a user space library.
|
|
|
|
To build OpenOCD (on both Linux and Cygwin), use the following commands:
|
|
|
|
@example
|
|
./bootstrap
|
|
@end example
|
|
|
|
Bootstrap generates the configure script, and prepares building on your system.
|
|
|
|
@example
|
|
./configure [options, see below]
|
|
@end example
|
|
|
|
Configure generates the Makefiles used to build OpenOCD.
|
|
|
|
@example
|
|
make
|
|
make install
|
|
@end example
|
|
|
|
Make builds OpenOCD, and places the final executable in ./src/, the last step, ``make install'' is optional.
|
|
|
|
The configure script takes several options, specifying which JTAG interfaces
|
|
should be included (among other things):
|
|
|
|
@itemize @bullet
|
|
@item
|
|
@option{--enable-parport} - Enable building the PC parallel port driver.
|
|
@item
|
|
@option{--enable-parport_ppdev} - Enable use of ppdev (/dev/parportN) for parport.
|
|
@item
|
|
@option{--enable-parport_giveio} - Enable use of giveio for parport instead of ioperm.
|
|
@item
|
|
@option{--enable-amtjtagaccel} - Enable building the Amontec JTAG-Accelerator driver.
|
|
@item
|
|
@option{--enable-ecosboard} - Enable building support for eCosBoard based JTAG debugger.
|
|
@item
|
|
@option{--enable-ioutil} - Enable ioutil functions - useful for standalone OpenOCD implementations.
|
|
@item
|
|
@option{--enable-httpd} - Enable builtin httpd server - useful for standalone OpenOCD implementations.
|
|
@item
|
|
@option{--enable-ep93xx} - Enable building support for EP93xx based SBCs.
|
|
@item
|
|
@option{--enable-at91rm9200} - Enable building support for AT91RM9200 based SBCs.
|
|
@item
|
|
@option{--enable-gw16012} - Enable building support for the Gateworks GW16012 JTAG programmer.
|
|
@item
|
|
@option{--enable-ft2232_ftd2xx} - Numerous USB type ARM JTAG dongles use the FT2232C chip from this FTDICHIP.COM chip (closed source).
|
|
@item
|
|
@option{--enable-ft2232_libftdi} - An open source (free) alternative to FTDICHIP.COM ftd2xx solution (Linux, MacOS, Cygwin).
|
|
@item
|
|
@option{--with-ftd2xx-win32-zipdir=PATH} - If using FTDICHIP.COM ft2232c driver,
|
|
give the directory where the Win32 FTDICHIP.COM 'CDM' driver zip file was unpacked.
|
|
@item
|
|
@option{--with-ftd2xx-linux-tardir=PATH} - If using FTDICHIP.COM ft2232c driver
|
|
on Linux, give the directory where the Linux driver's TAR.GZ file was unpacked.
|
|
@item
|
|
@option{--with-ftd2xx-lib=shared|static} - Linux only. Default: static. Specifies how the FTDICHIP.COM libftd2xx driver should be linked. Note: 'static' only works in conjunction with @option{--with-ftd2xx-linux-tardir}. The 'shared' value is supported (12/26/2008), however you must manually install the required header files and shared libraries in an appropriate place. This uses ``libusb'' internally.
|
|
@item
|
|
@option{--enable-presto_libftdi} - Enable building support for ASIX Presto programmer using the libftdi driver.
|
|
@item
|

|
|
@item
|
|
@option{--enable-rlink} - Enable building support for the Raisonance RLink JTAG programmer.
|
|
@item
|
|
@option{--enable-arm-jtag-ew} - Enable building support for the Olimex ARM-JTAG-EW programmer.
|
|
@item
|
|
@option{--enable-dummy} - Enable building the dummy port driver.
|
|
@end itemize
|
|
|
|
@section Parallel Port Dongles
|
|
|
|
If you want to access the parallel port using the PPDEV interface you have to specify
|
|
both the @option{--enable-parport} AND the @option{--enable-parport_ppdev} option since
|
|
the @option{--enable-parport_ppdev} option actually is an option to the parport driver
|
|
(see @uref{http://forum.sparkfun.com/viewtopic.php?t=3795} for more info).
|
|
|
|
The same is true for the @option{--enable-parport_giveio} option, you have to
|
|
use both the @option{--enable-parport} AND the @option{--enable-parport_giveio} option if you want to use giveio instead of ioperm parallel port access method.
|
|
|
|
@section FT2232C Based USB Dongles
|
|
|
|
There are 2 methods of using the FTD2232, either (1) using the
|
|
FTDICHIP.COM closed source driver, or (2) the open (and free) driver
|
|
libftdi. Some claim the (closed) FTDICHIP.COM solution is faster.
|
|
|
|
The FTDICHIP drivers come as either a (win32) ZIP file, or a (Linux)
|
|
TAR.GZ file. You must unpack them ``some where'' convient. As of this
|
|
writing (12/26/2008) FTDICHIP does not supply means to install these
|
|
files ``in an appropriate place'' As a result, there are two
|
|
``./configure'' options that help.
|
|
|
|
Below is an example build process:
|
|
|
|
@enumerate
|
|
@item Check out the latest version of ``openocd'' from SVN.
|
|
|
|
@item If you are using the FTDICHIP.COM driver, download
|
|
and unpack the Windows or Linux FTD2xx drivers
|
|
(@uref{http://www.ftdichip.com/Drivers/D2XX.htm}).
|
|
If you are using the libftdi driver, install that package
|
|
(e.g. @command{apt-get install libftdi} on systems with APT).
|
|
|
|
@example
|
|
/home/duane/ftd2xx.win32 => the Cygwin/Win32 ZIP file contents
|
|
/home/duane/libftd2xx0.4.16 => the Linux TAR.GZ file contents
|
|
@end example
|
|
|
|
@item Configure with options resembling the following.
|
|
|
|
@enumerate a
|
|
@item Cygwin FTDICHIP solution:
|
|
@example
|
|
./configure --prefix=/home/duane/mytools \
|
|
--enable-ft2232_ftd2xx \
|
|
--with-ftd2xx-win32-zipdir=/home/duane/ftd2xx.win32
|
|
@end example
|
|
|
|
@item Linux FTDICHIP solution:
|
|
@example
|
|
./configure --prefix=/home/duane/mytools \
|
|
--enable-ft2232_ftd2xx \
|
|
--with-ft2xx-linux-tardir=/home/duane/libftd2xx0.4.16
|
|
@end example
|
|
|
|
@item Cygwin/Linux LIBFTDI solution ... assuming that
|
|
@itemize
|
|
@item For Windows -- that the Windows port of LIBUSB is in place.
|
|
@item For Linux -- that libusb has been built/installed and is in place.
|
|
@item That libftdi has been built and installed (relies on libusb).
|
|
@end itemize
|
|
|
|
Then configure the libftdi solution like this:
|
|
|
|
@example
|
|
./configure --prefix=/home/duane/mytools \
|
|
--enable-ft2232_libftdi
|
|
@end example
|
|
@end enumerate
|
|
|
|
@item Then just type ``make'', and perhaps ``make install''.
|
|
@end enumerate
|
|
|
|
|
|
@section Miscellaneous Configure Options
|
|
|
|
@itemize @bullet
|
|
@item
|
|
@option{--disable-option-checking} - Ignore unrecognized @option{--enable} and @option{--with} options.
|
|
@item
|
|
@option{--enable-gccwarnings} - Enable extra gcc warnings during build.
|
|
Default is enabled.
|
|
@item
|
|
@option{--enable-release} - Enable building of an OpenOCD release, generally
|
|
this is for developers. It simply omits the svn version string when the
|
|
openocd @option{-v} is executed.

@cindex USB Adapter
|
|
@cindex rtck
|
|
|
|
Defined: @b{dongle}: A small device that plugins into a computer and serves as
|
|
an adapter .... [snip]
|
|
|
|
In the OpenOCD case, this generally refers to @b{a small adapater} one
|
|
attaches to your computer via USB or the Parallel Printer Port. The
|
|
execption being the Zylin ZY1000 which is a small box you attach via
|
|
an ethernet cable. The Zylin ZY1000 has the advantage that it does not
|
|
require any drivers to be installed on the developer PC. It also has
|
|
a built in web interface. It supports RTCK/RCLK or adaptive clocking
|
|
and has a built in relay to power cycle targets remotely.
|
|
|
|
|
|
@section Choosing a Dongle
|
|
|
|
There are three things you should keep in mind when choosing a dongle.
|
|
|
|
@enumerate
|
|
@item @b{Voltage} What voltage is your target? 1.8, 2.8, 3.3, or 5V? Does your dongle support it?
|
|
@item @b{Connection} Printer Ports - Does your computer have one?
|
|
@item @b{Connection} Is that long printer bit-bang cable practical?
|
|
@item @b{RTCK} Do you require RTCK? Also known as ``adaptive clocking''
|
|
@end enumerate
|
|
|
|
@section Stand alone Systems
|
|
|
|
@b{ZY1000} See: @url{http://www.zylin.com/zy1000.html} Technically, not a
|
|
dongle, but a standalone box. The ZY1000 has the advantage that it does
|
|
not require any drivers installed on the developer PC. It also has
|
|
a built in web interface. It supports RTCK/RCLK or adaptive clocking
|
|
and has a built in relay to power cycle targets remotely.
|
|
|
|
@section USB FT2232 Based
|
|
|
|
There are many USB JTAG dongles on the market, many of them are based
|
|
on a chip from ``Future Technology Devices International'' (FTDI)
|
|
known as the FTDI FT2232; this is a USB full speed (12 Mbps) chip.
|
|
See: @url{http://www.ftdichip.com} for more information.
|
|
In summer 2009, USB high speed (480 Mbps) versions of these FTDI
|
|
chips are starting to become available in JTAG adapters.
|
|
|
|
As of 28/Nov/2008, the following are supported:

|
|
|
|
By default OpenOCD reads the file configuration file ``openocd.cfg''
|
|
in the current directory. To specify a different (or multiple)
|
|
configuration file, you can use the ``-f'' option. For example:
|
|
|
|
@example
|
|
openocd -f config1.cfg -f config2.cfg -f config3.cfg
|
|
@end example
|
|
|
|
Once started, OpenOCD runs as a daemon, waiting for connections from
|
|
clients (Telnet, GDB, Other).
|
|
|
|
If you are having problems, you can enable internal debug messages via
|
|
the ``-d'' option.
|
|
|
|
Also it is possible to interleave commands w/config scripts using the
|
|
@option{-c} command line switch.
|
|
|
|
To enable debug output (when reporting problems or working on OpenOCD
|
|
itself), use the @option{-d} command line switch. This sets the
|
|
@option{debug_level} to "3", outputting the most information,
|
|
including debug messages. The default setting is "2", outputting only
|
|
informational messages, warnings and errors. You can also change this
|
|
setting from within a telnet or gdb session using @option{debug_level
|
|
<n>} @xref{debug_level}.
|
|
|
|
You can redirect all output from the daemon to a file using the
|
|
@option{-l <logfile>} switch.
|
|
|
|
Search paths for config/script files can be added to OpenOCD by using
|
|
the @option{-s <search>} switch. The current directory and the OpenOCD
|
|
target library is in the search path by default.
|
|
|
|
For details on the @option{-p} option. @xref{Connecting to GDB}.
|
|
|
|
Note! OpenOCD will launch the GDB & telnet server even if it can not
|
|
establish a connection with the target. In general, it is possible for
|
|
the JTAG controller to be unresponsive until the target is set up
|
|
correctly via e.g. GDB monitor commands in a GDB init script.

@chapter Simple Configuration Files
|
|
@cindex configuration
|
|
|
|
@section Outline
|
|
There are 4 basic ways of ``configurating'' OpenOCD to run, they are:
|
|
|
|
@enumerate
|
|
@item A small openocd.cfg file which ``sources'' other configuration files
|
|
@item A monolithic openocd.cfg file
|
|
@item Many -f filename options on the command line
|
|
@item Your Mixed Solution
|
|
@end enumerate
|
|
|
|
@section Small configuration file method
|
|
|
|
This is the preferred method. It is simple and works well for many
|
|
people. The developers of OpenOCD would encourage you to use this
|
|
method. If you create a new configuration please email new
|
|
configurations to the development list.
|
|
|
|
Here is an example of an openocd.cfg file for an ATMEL at91sam7x256
|
|
|
|
@example
|
|
source [find interface/signalyzer.cfg]
|
|
|
|
# GDB can also flash my flash!
|
|
gdb_memory_map enable
|
|
gdb_flash_program enable
|
|
|
|
source [find target/sam7x256.cfg]
|
|
@end example
|
|
|
|
There are many example configuration scripts you can work with. You
|
|
should look in the directory: @t{$(INSTALLDIR)/lib/openocd}. You
|
|
should find:
|
|
|
|
@enumerate
|
|
@item @b{board} - eval board level configurations
|
|
@item @b{interface} - specific dongle configurations
|
|
@item @b{target} - the target chips
|
|
@item @b{tcl} - helper scripts
|
|
@item @b{xscale} - things specific to the xscale.
|
|
@end enumerate
|
|
|
|
Look first in the ``boards'' area, then the ``targets'' area. Often a board
|
|
configuration is a good example to work from.
|
|
|
|
@section Many -f filename options
|
|
Some believe this is a wonderful solution, others find it painful.
|
|
|
|
You can use a series of ``-f filename'' options on the command line,
|
|
OpenOCD will read each filename in sequence, for example:
|
|
|
|
@example
|
|
openocd -f file1.cfg -f file2.cfg -f file2.cfg
|
|
@end example
|
|
|
|
You can also intermix various commands with the ``-c'' command line
|
|
option.
|
|
|
|
@section Monolithic file
|
|
The ``Monolithic File'' dispenses with all ``source'' statements and
|
|
puts everything in one self contained (monolithic) file. This is not
|
|
encouraged.
|
|
|
|
Please try to ``source'' various files or use the multiple -f
|
|
technique.
|
|
|
|
@section Advice for you
|
|
Often, one uses a ``mixed approach''. Where possible, please try to
|
|
``source'' common things, and if needed cut/paste parts of the
|
|
standard distribution configuration files as needed.
|
|
|
|
@b{REMEMBER:} The ``important parts'' of your configuration file are:
|
|
|
|
@enumerate
|
|
@item @b{Interface} - Defines the dongle
|
|
@item @b{Taps} - Defines the JTAG Taps
|
|
@item @b{GDB Targets} - What GDB talks to
|
|
@item @b{Flash Programing} - Very Helpful
|
|
@end enumerate
|
|
|
|
Some key things you should look at and understand are:
|
|
|
|
@enumerate
|
|
@item The reset configuration of your debug environment as a whole
|
|
@item Is there a ``work area'' that OpenOCD can use?
|
|
@* For ARM - work areas mean up to 10x faster downloads.
|
|
@item For MMU/MPU based ARM chips (i.e.: ARM9 and later) will that work area still be available?
|
|
@item For complex targets (multiple chips) the JTAG SPEED becomes an issue.

@node Config File Guidelines
|
|
@chapter Config File Guidelines
|
|
|
|
This section/chapter is aimed at developers and integrators of
|
|
OpenOCD. These are guidelines for creating new boards and new target
|
|
configurations as of 28/Nov/2008.
|
|
|
|
However, you, the user of OpenOCD, should be somewhat familiar with
|
|
this section as it should help explain some of the internals of what
|
|
you might be looking at.
|
|
|
|
The user should find the following directories under @t{$(INSTALLDIR)/lib/openocd} :
|
|
|
|
@itemize @bullet
|
|
@item @b{interface}
|
|
@*Think JTAG Dongle. Files that configure the JTAG dongle go here.
|
|
@item @b{board}
|
|
@* Think Circuit Board, PWA, PCB, they go by many names. Board files
|
|
contain initialization items that are specific to a board - for
|
|
example: The SDRAM initialization sequence for the board, or the type
|
|
of external flash and what address it is found at. Any initialization
|
|
sequence to enable that external flash or SDRAM should be found in the
|
|
board file. Boards may also contain multiple targets, i.e.: Two CPUs, or
|
|
a CPU and an FPGA or CPLD.
|
|
@item @b{target}
|
|
@* Think chip. The ``target'' directory represents a JTAG tap (or
|
|
chip) OpenOCD should control, not a board. Two common types of targets
|
|
are ARM chips and FPGA or CPLD chips.
|
|
@end itemize
|
|
|
|
@b{If needed...} The user in their ``openocd.cfg'' file or the board
|
|
file might override a specific feature in any of the above files by
|
|
setting a variable or two before sourcing the target file. Or adding
|
|
various commands specific to their situation.
|
|
|
|
@section Interface Config Files
|
|
|
|
The user should be able to source one of these files via a command like this:
|
|
|
|
@example
|
|
source [find interface/FOOBAR.cfg]
|
|
Or:
|
|
openocd -f interface/FOOBAR.cfg
|
|
@end example
|
|
|
|
A preconfigured interface file should exist for every interface in use
|
|
today, that said, perhaps some interfaces have only been used by the
|
|
sole developer who created it.
|
|
|
|
Interface files should be found in @t{$(INSTALLDIR)/lib/openocd/interface}
|
|
|
|
@section Board Config Files
|
|
|
|
@b{Note: BOARD directory NEW as of 28/nov/2008}
|
|
|
|
The user should be able to source one of these files via a command like this:
|
|
|
|
@example
|
|
source [find board/FOOBAR.cfg]
|
|
Or:
|
|
openocd -f board/FOOBAR.cfg
|
|
@end example
|
|
|
|
|
|
The board file should contain one or more @t{source [find
|
|
target/FOO.cfg]} statements along with any board specific things.
|
|
|
|
In summary the board files should contain (if present)
|
|
|
|
@enumerate
|
|
@item External flash configuration (i.e.: NOR flash on CS0, two NANDs on CS2)
|
|
@item SDRAM configuration (size, speed, etc.
|
|
@item Board specific IO configuration (i.e.: GPIO pins might disable a 2nd flash)
|
|
@item Multiple TARGET source statements
|
|
@item All things that are not ``inside a chip''
|
|
@item Things inside a chip go in a 'target' file
|
|
@end enumerate
|
|
|
|
@section Target Config Files
|
|
|
|
The user should be able to source one of these files via a command like this:
|
|
|
|
@example
|
|
source [find target/FOOBAR.cfg]
|
|
Or:
|
|
openocd -f target/FOOBAR.cfg
|
|
@end example
|
|
|
|
In summary the target files should contain
|
|
|
|
@enumerate
|
|
@item Set defaults
|
|
@item Create taps
|
|
@item Reset configuration
|
|
@item Work areas
|
|
@item CPU/Chip/CPU-Core specific features
|
|
@item On-Chip flash
|
|
@end enumerate
|
|
|
|
@subsection Important variable names
|
|
|
|
By default, the end user should never need to set these
|
|
variables. However, if the user needs to override a setting they only
|
|
need to set the variable in a simple way.
|
|
|
|
@itemize @bullet
|
|
@item @b{CHIPNAME}
|
|
@* This gives a name to the overall chip, and is used as part of the
|
|
tap identifier dotted name.
|
|
@item @b{ENDIAN}
|
|
@* By default little - unless the chip or board is not normally used that way.
|
|
@item @b{CPUTAPID}
|
|
@* When OpenOCD examines the JTAG chain, it will attempt to identify
|
|
every chip. If the @t{-expected-id} is nonzero, OpenOCD attempts
|
|
to verify the tap id number verses configuration file and may issue an
|
|
error or warning like this. The hope is that this will help to pinpoint
|
|
problems in OpenOCD configurations.
|
|
|
|
@example
|
|
Info: JTAG tap: sam7x256.cpu tap/device found: 0x3f0f0f0f
|
|
(Manufacturer: 0x787, Part: 0xf0f0, Version: 0x3)
|
|
Error: ERROR: Tap: sam7x256.cpu - Expected id: 0x12345678,
|
|
Got: 0x3f0f0f0f
|
|
Error: ERROR: expected: mfg: 0x33c, part: 0x2345, ver: 0x1
|
|
Error: ERROR: got: mfg: 0x787, part: 0xf0f0, ver: 0x3
|
|
@end example
|
|
|
|
@item @b{_TARGETNAME}
|
|
@* By convention, this variable is created by the target configuration
|
|
script. The board configuration file may make use of this variable to
|
|
configure things like a ``reset init'' script, or other things
|
|
specific to that board and that target.
|
|
|
|
If the chip has 2 targets, use the names @b{_TARGETNAME0},
|
|
@b{_TARGETNAME1}, ... etc.
|
|
|
|
@b{Remember:} The ``board file'' may include multiple targets.
|
|
|
|
At no time should the name ``target0'' (the default target name if
|
|
none was specified) be used. The name ``target0'' is a hard coded name
|
|
- the next target on the board will be some other number.
|
|
In the same way, avoid using target numbers even when they are
|
|
permitted; use the right target name(s) for your board.
|
|
|
|
The user (or board file) should reasonably be able to:
|
|
|
|
@example
|
|
source [find target/FOO.cfg]
|
|
$_TARGETNAME configure ... FOO specific parameters
|
|
|
|
source [find target/BAR.cfg]
|
|
$_TARGETNAME configure ... BAR specific parameters
|

@subsection Tcl Variables Guide Line
|
|
The Full Tcl/Tk language supports ``namespaces'' - JIM-Tcl does not.
|
|
|
|
Thus the rule we follow in OpenOCD is this: Variables that begin with
|
|
a leading underscore are temporary in nature, and can be modified and
|
|
used at will within a ?TARGET? configuration file.
|
|
|
|
@b{EXAMPLE:} The user should be able to do this:
|
|
|
|
@example
|
|
# Board has 3 chips,
|
|
# PXA270 #1 network side, big endian
|
|
# PXA270 #2 video side, little endian
|
|
# Xilinx Glue logic
|
|
set CHIPNAME network
|
|
set ENDIAN big
|
|
source [find target/pxa270.cfg]
|
|
# variable: _TARGETNAME = network.cpu
|
|
# other commands can refer to the "network.cpu" tap.
|
|
$_TARGETNAME configure .... params for this CPU..
|
|
|
|
set ENDIAN little
|
|
set CHIPNAME video
|
|
source [find target/pxa270.cfg]
|
|
# variable: _TARGETNAME = video.cpu
|
|
# other commands can refer to the "video.cpu" tap.
|
|
$_TARGETNAME configure .... params for this CPU..
|
|
|
|
unset ENDIAN
|
|
set CHIPNAME xilinx
|
|
source [find target/spartan3.cfg]
|
|
|
|
# Since $_TARGETNAME is temporal..
|
|
# these names still work!
|
|
network.cpu configure ... params
|
|
video.cpu configure ... params
|
|
|
|
@end example
|
|
|
|
@subsection Default Value Boiler Plate Code
|
|
|
|
All target configuration files should start with this (or a modified form)
|
|
|
|
@example
|
|
# SIMPLE example
|
|
if @{ [info exists CHIPNAME] @} @{
|
|
set _CHIPNAME $CHIPNAME
|
|
@} else @{
|
|
set _CHIPNAME sam7x256
|
|
@}
|
|
|
|
if @{ [info exists ENDIAN] @} @{
|
|
set _ENDIAN $ENDIAN
|
|
@} else @{
|
|
set _ENDIAN little
|
|
@}
|
|
|
|
if @{ [info exists CPUTAPID ] @} @{
|
|

@subsection Creating Taps
|
|
After the ``defaults'' are choosen [see above] the taps are created.
|
|
|
|
@b{SIMPLE example:} such as an Atmel AT91SAM7X256
|
|
|
|
@example
|
|
# for an ARM7TDMI.
|
|
set _TARGETNAME [format "%s.cpu" $_CHIPNAME]
|
|
jtag newtap $_CHIPNAME cpu -irlen 4 -ircapture 0x1 -irmask 0xf \
|
|
-expected-id $_CPUTAPID
|
|
@end example
|
|
|
|
@b{COMPLEX example:}
|
|
|
|
This is an SNIP/example for an STR912 - which has 3 internal taps. Key features shown:
|
|
|
|
@enumerate
|
|
@item @b{Unform tap names} - See: Tap Naming Convention
|
|
@item @b{_TARGETNAME} is created at the end where used.
|
|
@end enumerate
|
|
|
|
@example
|
|
if @{ [info exists FLASHTAPID ] @} @{
|
|
set _FLASHTAPID $FLASHTAPID
|
|
@} else @{
|
|
set _FLASHTAPID 0x25966041
|
|
@}
|
|
jtag newtap $_CHIPNAME flash -irlen 8 -ircapture 0x1 -irmask 0x1 \
|
|
-expected-id $_FLASHTAPID
|
|
|
|
if @{ [info exists CPUTAPID ] @} @{
|
|
set _CPUTAPID $CPUTAPID
|
|
@} else @{
|
|
set _CPUTAPID 0x25966041
|
|
@}
|
|
jtag newtap $_CHIPNAME cpu -irlen 4 -ircapture 0xf -irmask 0xe \
|
|
-expected-id $_CPUTAPID
|
|
|
|
|
|
if @{ [info exists BSTAPID ] @} @{
|
|
set _BSTAPID $BSTAPID
|
|
@} else @{
|
|
set _BSTAPID 0x1457f041

|
-expected-id $_BSTAPID
|
|
|
|
set _TARGETNAME [format "%s.cpu" $_CHIPNAME]
|
|
@end example
|
|
|
|
@b{Tap Naming Convention}
|
|
|
|
See the command ``jtag newtap'' for detail, but in brief the names you should use are:
|
|
|
|
@itemize @bullet
|
|
@item @b{tap}
|
|
@item @b{cpu}
|
|
@item @b{flash}
|
|
@item @b{bs}
|
|
@item @b{etb}
|
|
@item @b{jrc}
|
|
@item @b{unknownN} - it happens :-(
|
|
@end itemize
|
|
|
|
@subsection Reset Configuration
|
|
|
|
Some chips have specific ways the TRST and SRST signals are
|
|
managed. If these are @b{CHIP SPECIFIC} they go here, if they are
|
|
@b{BOARD SPECIFIC} they go in the board file.
|
|
|
|
@subsection Work Areas
|
|
|
|
Work areas are small RAM areas used by OpenOCD to speed up downloads,
|
|
and to download small snippets of code to program flash chips.
|
|
|
|
If the chip includes a form of ``on-chip-ram'' - and many do - define
|
|
a reasonable work area and use the ``backup'' option.
|
|
|
|
@b{PROBLEMS:} On more complex chips, this ``work area'' may become
|
|
inaccessible if/when the application code enables or disables the MMU.
|
|
|
|
@subsection ARM Core Specific Hacks
|
|
|
|
If the chip has a DCC, enable it. If the chip is an ARM9 with some
|
|
special high speed download features - enable it.
|
|
|
|
If the chip has an ARM ``vector catch'' feature - by default enable
|
|
it for Undefined Instructions, Data Abort, and Prefetch Abort, if the
|
|
user is really writing a handler for those situations - they can
|
|
easily disable it. Experiance has shown the ``vector catch'' is
|
|
helpful - for common programing errors.
|
|
|
|
If present, the MMU, the MPU and the CACHE should be disabled.
|
|
|
|
Some ARM cores are equipped with trace support, which permits
|
|
examination of the instruction and data bus activity. Trace
|
|
activity is controlled through an ``Embedded Trace Module'' (ETM)
|
|
on one of the core's scan chains. The ETM emits voluminous data
|
|
through a ``trace port''. (@xref{ARM Tracing}.)
|
|
If you are using an external trace port,
|
|
configure it in your board config file.
|
|
If you are using an on-chip ``Embedded Trace Buffer'' (ETB),
|
|
configure it in your target config file.
|
|
|
|
@example
|
|
etm config $_TARGETNAME 16 normal full etb
|
|
etb config $_TARGETNAME $_CHIPNAME.etb
|
|
@end example
|
|
|
|
@subsection Internal Flash Configuration
|
|
|
|
This applies @b{ONLY TO MICROCONTROLLERS} that have flash built in.
|
|
|
|
@b{Never ever} in the ``target configuration file'' define any type of
|
|
flash that is external to the chip. (For example a BOOT flash on
|
|
Chip Select 0.) Such flash information goes in a board file - not
|
|
the TARGET (chip) file.
|
|
|
|
Examples:
|
|
@itemize @bullet
|
|
@item at91sam7x256 - has 256K flash YES enable it.
|
|
@item str912 - has flash internal YES enable it.
|
|
@item imx27 - uses boot flash on CS0 - it goes in the board file.
|
|
@item pxa270 - again - CS0 flash - it goes in the board file.

@cindex JIM Tcl
|
|
@cindex tcl
|
|
|
|
OpenOCD includes a small ``TCL Interpreter'' known as JIM-TCL. You can
|
|
learn more about JIM here: @url{http://jim.berlios.de}
|
|
|
|
@itemize @bullet
|
|
@item @b{JIM vs. Tcl}
|
|
@* JIM-TCL is a stripped down version of the well known Tcl language,
|
|
which can be found here: @url{http://www.tcl.tk}. JIM-Tcl has far
|
|
fewer features. JIM-Tcl is a single .C file and a single .H file and
|
|
impliments the basic Tcl command set along. In contrast: Tcl 8.6 is a
|
|
4.2 MB .zip file containing 1540 files.
|
|
|
|
@item @b{Missing Features}
|
|
@* Our practice has been: Add/clone the real Tcl feature if/when
|
|
needed. We welcome JIM Tcl improvements, not bloat.
|
|
|
|
@item @b{Scripts}
|
|
@* OpenOCD configuration scripts are JIM Tcl Scripts. OpenOCD's
|
|
command interpreter today (28/nov/2008) is a mixture of (newer)
|
|
JIM-Tcl commands, and (older) the orginal command interpreter.
|
|
|
|
@item @b{Commands}
|
|
@* At the OpenOCD telnet command line (or via the GDB mon command) one
|
|
can type a Tcl for() loop, set variables, etc.
|
|
|
|
@item @b{Historical Note}
|

@chapter Daemon Configuration
|
|
@cindex initialization
|
|
The commands here are commonly found in the openocd.cfg file and are
|
|
used to specify what TCP/IP ports are used, and how GDB should be
|
|
supported.
|
|
|
|
@section Configuration Stage
|
|
@cindex configuration stage
|
|
@cindex configuration command
|
|
|
|
When the OpenOCD server process starts up, it enters a
|
|
@emph{configuration stage} which is the only time that
|
|
certain commands, @emph{configuration commands}, may be issued.
|
|
Those configuration commands include declaration of TAPs
|
|
and other basic setup.
|
|
The server must leave the configuration stage before it
|
|
may access or activate TAPs.
|
|
After it leaves this stage, configuration commands may no
|
|
longer be issued.
|
|
|
|
@deffn {Config Command} init
|
|
This command terminates the configuration stage and
|
|
enters the normal command mode. This can be useful to add commands to
|
|
the startup scripts and commands such as resetting the target,
|
|
programming flash, etc. To reset the CPU upon startup, add "init" and
|
|
"reset" at the end of the config script or at the end of the OpenOCD
|
|
command line using the @option{-c} command line switch.
|
|
|
|
If this command does not appear in any startup/configuration file
|
|
OpenOCD executes the command for you after processing all
|
|
configuration files and/or command line options.
|
|
|
|
@b{NOTE:} This command normally occurs at or near the end of your
|
|
openocd.cfg file to force OpenOCD to ``initialize'' and make the
|
|
targets ready. For example: If your openocd.cfg file needs to
|
|
read/write memory on your target, @command{init} must occur before
|
|
the memory read/write commands. This includes @command{nand probe}.
|
|
@end deffn
|
|
|
|
@section TCP/IP Ports
|
|
@cindex TCP port
|
|
@cindex server
|
|
@cindex port
|
|
The OpenOCD server accepts remote commands in several syntaxes.
|
|
Each syntax uses a different TCP/IP port, which you may specify
|
|
only during configuration (before those ports are opened).
|
|
|
|
@deffn {Command} gdb_port (number)
|
|
@cindex GDB server
|
|
Specify or query the first port used for incoming GDB connections.
|
|
The GDB port for the
|
|
first target will be gdb_port, the second target will listen on gdb_port + 1, and so on.
|
|
When not specified during the configuration stage,
|
|
the port @var{number} defaults to 3333.
|
|
@end deffn
|
|
|
|
@deffn {Command} tcl_port (number)
|
|
Specify or query the port used for a simplified RPC
|
|
connection that can be used by clients to issue TCL commands and get the
|
|
output from the Tcl engine.
|
|
Intended as a machine interface.
|
|
When not specified during the configuration stage,
|
|
the port @var{number} defaults to 6666.
|
|
@end deffn
|
|
|
|
@deffn {Command} telnet_port (number)
|
|
Specify or query the
|
|
port on which to listen for incoming telnet connections.
|
|
This port is intended for interaction with one human through TCL commands.
|
|
When not specified during the configuration stage,
|
|
the port @var{number} defaults to 4444.

You can reconfigure some GDB behaviors if needed.

|
@xref{Target Create}, about declaring individual targets.
|
|
@xref{Target Events}, about configuring target-specific event handling.
|
|
|
|
@anchor{gdb_breakpoint_override}
|
|
@deffn {Command} gdb_breakpoint_override <hard|soft|disable>
|
|
Force breakpoint type for gdb @command{break} commands.
|
|
The raison d'etre for this option is to support GDB GUI's which don't
|
|
distinguish hard versus soft breakpoints, if the default OpenOCD and
|
|
GDB behaviour is not sufficient. GDB normally uses hardware
|
|
breakpoints if the memory map has been set up for flash regions.
|
|
|
|
This option replaces older arm7_9 target commands that addressed
|
|
the same issue.
|
|
@end deffn
|
|
|
|
@deffn {Config command} gdb_detach <resume|reset|halt|nothing>
|
|
Configures what OpenOCD will do when GDB detaches from the daemon.
|
|
Default behaviour is @var{resume}.
|
|
@end deffn
|
|
|
|
@anchor{gdb_flash_program}
|
|
@deffn {Config command} gdb_flash_program <enable|disable>
|
|
Set to @var{enable} to cause OpenOCD to program the flash memory when a
|
|
vFlash packet is received.
|
|
The default behaviour is @var{enable}.
|
|
@end deffn
|
|
|
|
@deffn {Config command} gdb_memory_map <enable|disable>
|
|
Set to @var{enable} to cause OpenOCD to send the memory configuration to GDB when
|
|
requested. GDB will then know when to set hardware breakpoints, and program flash
|
|
using the GDB load command. @command{gdb_flash_program enable} must also be enabled
|
|
for flash programming to work.
|
|
Default behaviour is @var{enable}.
|
|
@xref{gdb_flash_program}.
|
|
@end deffn
|
|
|
|
@deffn {Config command} gdb_report_data_abort <enable|disable>
|
|
Specifies whether data aborts cause an error to be reported
|
|
by GDB memory read packets.
|
|
The default behaviour is @var{disable};
|
|
use @var{enable} see these errors reported.

@anchor{JTAG Speed}
|
|
@section JTAG Speed
|
|
JTAG clock setup is part of system setup.
|
|
It @emph{does not belong with interface setup} since any interface
|
|
only knows a few of the constraints for the JTAG clock speed.
|
|
Sometimes the JTAG speed is
|
|
changed during the target initialization process: (1) slow at
|
|
reset, (2) program the CPU clocks, (3) run fast.
|
|
Both the "slow" and "fast" clock rates are functions of the
|
|
oscillators used, the chip, the board design, and sometimes
|
|
power management software that may be active.
|
|
|
|
The speed used during reset can be adjusted using pre_reset
|
|
and post_reset event handlers.
|
|
@xref{Target Events}.
|
|
|
|
If your system supports adaptive clocking (RTCK), configuring
|
|
JTAG to use that is probably the most robust approach.
|
|
However, it introduces delays to synchronize clocks; so it
|
|
may not be the fastest solution.
|
|
|
|
@b{NOTE:} Script writers should consider using @command{jtag_rclk}
|
|
instead of @command{jtag_khz}.
|
|
|
|
@deffn {Command} jtag_khz max_speed_kHz
|
|
A non-zero speed is in KHZ. Hence: 3000 is 3mhz.
|
|
JTAG interfaces usually support a limited number of
|
|
speeds. The speed actually used won't be faster
|
|
than the speed specified.
|
|
|
|
As a rule of thumb, if you specify a clock rate make
|
|
sure the JTAG clock is no more than @math{1/6th CPU-Clock}.
|
|
This is especially true for synthesized cores (ARMxxx-S).
|
|
|
|
Speed 0 (khz) selects RTCK method.
|
|
@xref{FAQ RTCK}.
|
|
If your system uses RTCK, you won't need to change the
|
|
JTAG clocking after setup.
|
|
Not all interfaces, boards, or targets support ``rtck''.
|
|
If the interface device can not
|
|
support it, an error is returned when you try to use RTCK.
|
|
@end deffn
|
|
|
|
@defun jtag_rclk fallback_speed_kHz
|
|
@cindex RTCK
|
|
This Tcl proc (defined in startup.tcl) attempts to enable RTCK/RCLK.
|
|
If that fails (maybe the interface, board, or target doesn't
|
|
support it), falls back to the specified frequency.
|

@node Reset Configuration
|
|
@chapter Reset Configuration
|
|
@cindex Reset Configuration
|
|
|
|
Every system configuration may require a different reset
|
|
configuration. This can also be quite confusing.
|
|
Resets also interact with @var{reset-init} event handlers,
|
|
which do things like setting up clocks and DRAM, and
|
|
JTAG clock rates. (@xref{JTAG Speed}.)
|
|
Please see the various board files for examples.
|
|
|
|
@quotation Note
|
|
To maintainers and integrators:
|
|
Reset configuration touches several things at once.
|
|
Normally the board configuration file
|
|
should define it and assume that the JTAG adapter supports
|
|
everything that's wired up to the board's JTAG connector.
|
|
However, the target configuration file could also make note
|
|
of something the silicon vendor has done inside the chip,
|
|
which will be true for most (or all) boards using that chip.
|
|
And when the JTAG adapter doesn't support everything, the
|
|
system configuration file will need to override parts of
|
|
the reset configuration provided by other files.
|
|
@end quotation
|
|
|
|
@section Types of Reset
|
|
|
|
There are many kinds of reset possible through JTAG, but
|
|
they may not all work with a given board and adapter.
|
|
That's part of why reset configuration can be error prone.
|
|
|
|
@itemize @bullet

@item
|
|
@emph{System Reset} ... the @emph{SRST} hardware signal
|
|
resets all chips connected to the JTAG adapter, such as processors,
|
|
power management chips, and I/O controllers. Normally resets triggered
|
|
with this signal behave exactly like pressing a RESET button.
|
|
@item
|
|
@emph{JTAG TAP Reset} ... the @emph{TRST} hardware signal resets
|
|
just the TAP controllers connected to the JTAG adapter.
|
|
Such resets should not be visible to the rest of the system; resetting a
|
|
device's the TAP controller just puts that controller into a known state.
|
|
@item
|
|
@emph{Emulation Reset} ... many devices can be reset through JTAG
|
|
commands. These resets are often distinguishable from system
|
|
resets, either explicitly (a "reset reason" register says so)
|
|
or implicitly (not all parts of the chip get reset).
|
|
@item
|
|
@emph{Other Resets} ... system-on-chip devices often support
|
|
several other types of reset.
|
|
You may need to arrange that a watchdog timer stops
|
|
while debugging, preventing a watchdog reset.
|
|
There may be individual module resets.
|
|
@end itemize
|
|
|
|
In the best case, OpenOCD can hold SRST, then reset
|
|
the TAPs via TRST and send commands through JTAG to halt the
|
|
CPU at the reset vector before the 1st instruction is executed.
|
|
Then when it finally releases the SRST signal, the system is
|
|
halted under debugger control before any code has executed.
|
|
This is the behavior required to support the @command{reset halt}
|
|
and @command{reset init} commands; after @command{reset init} a
|
|
board-specific script might do things like setting up DRAM.
|
|
(@xref{Reset Command}.)
|
|
|
|
@section SRST and TRST Signal Issues
|
|
|
|
Because SRST and TRST are hardware signals, they can have a
|
|
variety of system-specific constraints. Some of the most
|
|
common issues are:
|
|
|
|
@itemize @bullet
|
|
|
|
@item @emph{Signal not available} ... Some boards don't wire
|
|
SRST or TRST to the JTAG connector. Some JTAG adapters don't
|
|
support such signals even if they are wired up.
|
|
Use the @command{reset_config} @var{signals} options to say
|
|
when one of those signals is not connected.
|
|
When SRST is not available, your code might not be able to rely
|
|
on controllers having been fully reset during code startup.
|
|
|
|
@item @emph{Signals shorted} ... Sometimes a chip, board, or
|
|
adapter will connect SRST to TRST, instead of keeping them separate.
|
|
Use the @command{reset_config} @var{combination} options to say
|
|
when those signals aren't properly independent.
|
|
|
|
@item @emph{Timing} ... Reset circuitry like a resistor/capacitor
|
|
delay circuit, reset supervisor, or on-chip features can extend
|
|
the effect of a JTAG adapter's reset for some time after the adapter
|
|
stops issuing the reset. For example, there may be chip or board
|
|
requirements that all reset pulses last for at least a
|
|
certain amount of time; and reset buttons commonly have
|
|
hardware debouncing.
|
|
Use the @command{jtag_nsrst_delay} and @command{jtag_ntrst_delay}
|
|
commands to say when extra delays are needed.
|
|
|
|
@item @emph{Drive type} ... Reset lines often have a pullup
|
|
resistor, letting the JTAG interface treat them as open-drain
|
|
signals. But that's not a requirement, so the adapter may need
|
|
to use push/pull output drivers.
|
|
Also, with weak pullups it may be advisable to drive
|
|
signals to both levels (push/pull) to minimize rise times.
|
|
Use the @command{reset_config} @var{trst_type} and
|
|
@var{srst_type} parameters to say how to drive reset signals.
|
|
@end itemize
|
|
|
|
There can also be other issues.
|
|
Some devices don't fully conform to the JTAG specifications.
|
|
Trivial system-specific differences are common, such as
|
|
SRST and TRST using slightly different names.
|
|
There are also vendors who distribute key JTAG documentation for
|
|
their chips only to developers who have signed a Non-Disclosure
|
|
Agreement (NDA).
|
|
|
|
Sometimes there are chip-specific extensions like a requirement to use
|
|
the normally-optional TRST signal (precluding use of JTAG adapters which
|
|
don't pass TRST through), or needing extra steps to complete a TAP reset.
|
|
|
|
In short, SRST and especially TRST handling may be very finicky,
|
|
needing to cope with both architecture and board specific constraints.

@deffn {Command} jtag_nsrst_delay milliseconds
|
|
How long (in milliseconds) OpenOCD should wait after deasserting
|
|
nSRST (active-low system reset) before starting new JTAG operations.
|
|
When a board has a reset button connected to SRST line it will
|
|
probably have hardware debouncing, implying you should use this.
|
|
@end deffn
|
|
|
|
@deffn {Command} jtag_ntrst_delay milliseconds
|
|
How long (in milliseconds) OpenOCD should wait after deasserting
|
|
nTRST (active-low JTAG TAP reset) before starting new JTAG operations.
|
|
@end deffn
|
|
|
|
@deffn {Command} reset_config mode_flag ...
|
|
This command tells OpenOCD the reset configuration
|
|
of your combination of JTAG board and target in target
|
|
configuration scripts.
|
|
|
|
If you have an interface that does not support SRST and
|
|
TRST(unlikely), then you may be able to work around that
|
|
problem by using a reset_config command to override any
|
|
settings in the target configuration script.
|
|
|
|
SRST and TRST has a fairly well understood definition and
|
|
behaviour in the JTAG specification, but vendors take
|
|
liberties to achieve various more or less clearly understood
|
|
goals. Sometimes documentation is available, other times it
|
|
is not. OpenOCD has the reset_config command to allow OpenOCD
|
|
to deal with the various common cases.
|
|
|
|
The @var{mode_flag} options can be specified in any order, but only one
|
|
of each type -- @var{signals}, @var{combination}, @var{trst_type},
|
|
and @var{srst_type} -- may be specified at a time.
|
|
If you don't provide a new value for a given type, its previous
|
|
value (perhaps the default) is unchanged.
|
|
For example, this means that you don't need to say anything at all about
|
|
TRST just to declare that if the JTAG adapter should want to drive SRST,
|
|
it must explicitly be driven high (@option{srst_push_pull}).
|
|
|
|
@var{signals} can specify which of the reset signals are connected.
|
|
For example, If the JTAG interface provides SRST, but the board doesn't
|
|
connect that signal properly, then OpenOCD can't use it.
|
|
Possible values are @option{none} (the default), @option{trst_only},
|
|
@option{srst_only} and @option{trst_and_srst}.
|
|
|
|
@quotation Tip
|
|
If your board provides SRST or TRST through the JTAG connector,
|
|
you must declare that or else those signals will not be used.
|
|
@end quotation
|
|
|
|
The @var{combination} is an optional value specifying broken reset
|
|
signal implementations.
|
|
The default behaviour if no option given is @option{separate},
|
|
indicating everything behaves normally.
|
|
@option{srst_pulls_trst} states that the
|
|
test logic is reset together with the reset of the system (e.g. Philips
|
|
LPC2000, "broken" board layout), @option{trst_pulls_srst} says that
|
|
the system is reset together with the test logic (only hypothetical, I
|
|
haven't seen hardware with such a bug, and can be worked around).
|
|
@option{combined} implies both @option{srst_pulls_trst} and
|
|
@option{trst_pulls_srst}.
|
|
|
|
The optional @var{trst_type} and @var{srst_type} parameters allow the
|
|
driver mode of each reset line to be specified. These values only affect
|
|
JTAG interfaces with support for different driver modes, like the Amontec
|
|
JTAGkey and JTAGAccelerator. Also, they are necessarily ignored if the
|
|
relevant signal (TRST or SRST) is not connected.
|
|
|
|
Possible @var{trst_type} driver modes for the test reset signal (TRST)
|
|
are @option{trst_push_pull} (default) and @option{trst_open_drain}.
|
|
Most boards connect this signal to a pulldown, so the JTAG TAPs
|
|
never leave reset unless they are hooked up to a JTAG adapter.
|
|
|
|
Possible @var{srst_type} driver modes for the system reset signal (SRST)
|
|
are the default @option{srst_open_drain}, and @option{srst_push_pull}.
|
|
Most boards connect this signal to a pullup, and allow the
|
|
signal to be pulled low by various events including system
|
|
powerup and pressing a reset button.

document titled: @b{STR91xFAxxx, Section 3.15 Jtag Interface, Page:
|
|
28/102, Figure 3: JTAG chaining inside the STR91xFA}.

The diagram shows that the TDO pin connects to the flash tap, flash TDI
|
|
connects to the CPU debug tap, CPU TDI connects to the boundary scan
|
|
tap which then connects to the TDI pin.
|
|
|
|
@example
|
|
# The order is...
|
|
# create tap: 'str912.flash'
|
|
jtag newtap str912 flash ... params ...
|
|
# create tap: 'str912.cpu'
|
|
jtag newtap str912 cpu ... params ...
|
|
# create tap: 'str912.bs'
|
|
jtag newtap str912 bs ... params ...

@item @b{Note: Deprecated} - Index Numbers
|
|
@* Prior to 28/nov/2008, JTAG taps where numbered from 0..N this
|
|
feature is still present, however its use is highly discouraged and
|
|
should not be counted upon. Update all of your scripts to use
|
|
TAP names rather than numbers.
|
|
@item @b{Multiple chips}
|
|
@* If your board has multiple chips, you should be
|
|
able to @b{source} two configuration files, in the proper order, and
|

have the taps created in the proper order.

@b{Note:} These commands are intended to be used as a machine/script

@cindex route controller
|
|
|
|
These commands are used when your target has a JTAG route controller
|
|
that effectively adds or removes a tap from the JTAG chain in a
|
|
non-standard way.
|
|
|
|
The ``standard way'' to remove a tap would be to place the tap in
|
|
bypass mode. But with the advent of modern chips, this is not always a
|
|
good solution. Some taps operate slowly, others operate fast, and
|
|
there are other JTAG clock synchronisation problems one must face. To
|
|
solve that problem, the JTAG route controller was introduced. Rather
|
|
than ``bypass'' the tap, the tap is completely removed from the
|
|
circuit and skipped.
|
|
|
|
|
|
From OpenOCD's point of view, a JTAG tap is in one of 3 states:
|
|
|
|
@itemize @bullet
|
|
@item @b{Enabled - Not In ByPass} and has a variable bit length
|
|
@item @b{Enabled - In ByPass} and has a length of exactly 1 bit.
|
|
@item @b{Disabled} and has a length of ZERO and is removed from the circuit.
|
|
@end itemize
|
|
|
|
The IEEE JTAG definition has no concept of a ``disabled'' tap.
|
|
@b{Historical note:} this feature was added 28/nov/2008
|
|
|
|
@b{jtag tapisenabled DOTTED.NAME}
|
|
|
|
This command returns 1 if the named tap is currently enabled, 0 if not.
|
|
This command exists so that scripts that manipulate a JRC (like the
|
|
OMAP3530 has) can determine if OpenOCD thinks a tap is presently
|
|
enabled or disabled.

@cindex GDB target
|
|
|
|
This chapter discusses how to create a GDB debug target. Before
|
|
creating a ``target'' a JTAG tap DOTTED.NAME must exist first.
|
|
|
|
@section targets [NAME]
|
|
@b{Note:} This command name is PLURAL - not singular.
|
|
|
|
With NO parameter, this plural @b{targets} command lists all known
|
|
targets in a human friendly form.
|
|
|
|
With a parameter, this plural @b{targets} command sets the current
|
|
target to the given name. (i.e.: If there are multiple debug targets)
|
|
|
|
Example:
|
|
@verbatim
|
|
(gdb) mon targets
|
|
CmdName Type Endian ChainPos State
|
|
-- ---------- ---------- ---------- -------- ----------
|
|
0: target0 arm7tdmi little 0 halted

|
@end verbatim
|
|
|
|
@section target COMMANDS
|
|
@b{Note:} This command name is SINGULAR - not plural. It is used to
|
|
manipulate specific targets, to create targets and other things.
|
|
|
|
Once a target is created, a TARGETNAME (object) command is created;
|
|
see below for details.
|
|
|
|
The TARGET command accepts these sub-commands:
|
|
@itemize @bullet
|
|
@item @b{create} .. parameters ..
|
|
@* creates a new target, see below for details.
|
|
@item @b{types}
|
|
@* Lists all supported target types (perhaps some are not yet in this document).
|
|
@item @b{names}
|
|
@* Lists all current debug target names, for example: 'str912.cpu' or 'pxa27.cpu' example usage:
|
|
@verbatim
|
|
foreach t [target names] {
|
|
puts [format "Target: %s\n" $t]
|
|
}
|
|
@end verbatim
|
|
@item @b{current}
|
|
@* Returns the current target. OpenOCD always has, or refers to the ``current target'' in some way.
|
|
By default, commands like: ``mww'' (used to write memory) operate on the current target.
|
|
@item @b{number} @b{NUMBER}
|
|
@* Internally OpenOCD maintains a list of targets - in numerical index
|
|
(0..N-1) this command returns the name of the target at index N.
|
|
Example usage:
|
|
@verbatim
|
|
set thename [target number $x]
|
|
puts [format "Target %d is: %s\n" $x $thename]
|
|
@end verbatim
|
|
@item @b{count}
|
|
@* Returns the number of targets known to OpenOCD (see number above)
|
|
Example:
|
|
@verbatim
|
|
set c [target count]
|
|
for { set x 0 } { $x < $c } { incr x } {
|
|
# Assuming you have created this function
|
|
print_target_details $x
|
|
}
|
|
@end verbatim
|
|
|
|
@end itemize
|
|
|
|
@section TARGETNAME (object) commands
|
|
@b{Use:} Once a target is created, an ``object name'' that represents the
|
|
target is created. By convention, the target name is identical to the
|
|
tap name. In a multiple target system, one can preceed many common
|
|
commands with a specific target name and effect only that target.
|
|
@example
|
|
str912.cpu mww 0x1234 0x42
|
|
omap3530.cpu mww 0x5555 123
|
|
@end example
|
|
|
|
@b{Model:} The Tcl/Tk language has the concept of object commands. A
|
|
good example is a on screen button, once a button is created a button
|
|
has a name (a path in Tk terms) and that name is useable as a 1st
|
|
class command. For example in Tk, one can create a button and later
|
|
configure it like this:
|
|
|
|
@example
|
|
# Create
|
|
button .foobar -background red -command @{ foo @}
|
|
# Modify
|
|
.foobar configure -foreground blue
|
|
# Query
|
|
set x [.foobar cget -background]
|
|
# Report
|
|
puts [format "The button is %s" $x]
|
|
@end example
|
|
|
|
In OpenOCD's terms, the ``target'' is an object just like a Tcl/Tk
|
|
button. Commands available as a ``target object'' are:
|
|
|
|
@comment START targetobj commands.
|
|
@itemize @bullet
|
|
@item @b{configure} - configure the target; see Target Config/Cget Options below
|
|
@item @b{cget} - query the target configuration; see Target Config/Cget Options below
|
|
@item @b{curstate} - current target state (running, halt, etc.
|
|
@item @b{eventlist}

@* @b{ARRAYNAME} is the name of an array variable
|
|
@* @b{WIDTH} is 8/16/32 - indicating the memory access size
|
|
@* @b{ADDRESS} is the target memory address
|

@section Target Events
|
|
@cindex events
|
|
At various times, certain things can happen, or you want them to happen.
|
|
|
|
Examples:
|
|
@itemize @bullet
|
|
@item What should happen when GDB connects? Should your target reset?
|
|
@item When GDB tries to flash the target, do you need to enable the flash via a special command?
|
|
@item During reset, do you need to write to certain memory location to reconfigure the SDRAM?
|
|
@end itemize
|
|
|
|
All of the above items are handled by target events.
|
|
|
|
To specify an event action, either during target creation, or later
|
|
via ``$_TARGETNAME configure'' see this example.
|
|
|
|
Syntactially, the option is: ``-event NAME BODY'' where NAME is a
|
|
target event name, and BODY is a Tcl procedure or string of commands
|
|
to execute.
|
|
|
|
The programmers model is the ``-command'' option used in Tcl/Tk
|
|
buttons and events. Below are two identical examples, the first
|
|
creates and invokes small procedure. The second inlines the procedure.
|
|
|
|
@example
|
|
proc my_attach_proc @{ @} @{
|
|

|
|

|
|
|
|
You should specify a working area if you can; typically it uses some

|
on-chip SRAM. Such a working area can speed up many things, including bulk
|
|
writes to target memory; flash operations like checking to see if memory needs

to be erased; GDB memory checksumming; and may help perform otherwise

unavailable operations (like some coprocessor operations on ARM7/9 systems).

@itemize @bullet
|

@item @b{cortex_m3}

|
@* Use variant @option{lm3s} when debugging older Stellaris LM3S targets.
|
|
This will cause OpenOCD to use a software reset rather than asserting
|
|
SRST, to avoid a issue with clearing the debug registers.
|
|
This is fixed in Fury Rev B, DustDevil Rev B, Tempest; these revisions will
|
|
be detected and the normal reset behaviour used.
|
|
@item @b{xscale}
|
|
@*Supported variants are
|
|
@option{ixp42x}, @option{ixp45x}, @option{ixp46x},
|
|
@option{pxa250}, @option{pxa255}, @option{pxa26x}.
|
|
@item @b{mips_m4k}
|
|
@* Use variant @option{ejtag_srst} when debugging targets that do not
|
|
provide a functional SRST line on the EJTAG connector. This causes
|
|
OpenOCD to instead use an EJTAG software reset command to reset the
|
|
processor. You still need to enable @option{srst} on the reset
|
|
configuration command to enable OpenOCD hardware reset functionality.

@node Flash Commands

@chapter Flash Commands
|
|
|
|
OpenOCD has different commands for NOR and NAND flash;
|
|
the ``flash'' command works with NOR flash, while
|
|
the ``nand'' command works with NAND flash.
|
|
This partially reflects different hardware technologies:
|
|
NOR flash usually supports direct CPU instruction and data bus access,
|
|
while data from a NAND flash must be copied to memory before it can be
|
|
used. (SPI flash must also be copied to memory before use.)
|
|
However, the documentation also uses ``flash'' as a generic term;
|
|
for example, ``Put flash configuration in board-specific files''.
|
|
|
|
@quotation Note
|
|
As of 28-nov-2008 OpenOCD does not know how to program a SPI
|
|
flash that a micro may boot from. Perhaps you, the reader, would like to
|
|
contribute support for this.
|
|
@end quotation
|
|
|
|
Flash Steps:
|
|
@enumerate
|
|
@item Configure via the command @command{flash bank}
|
|
@* Do this in a board-specific configuration file,
|
|
passing parameters as needed by the driver.
|
|
@item Operate on the flash via @command{flash subcommand}
|
|
@* Often commands to manipulate the flash are typed by a human, or run
|
|
via a script in some automated way. Common tasks include writing a
|
|
boot loader, operating system, or other data.
|
|
@item GDB Flashing

Many CPUs have the ablity to ``boot'' from the first flash bank.
|
|
This means that misprograming that bank can ``brick'' a system,
|
|
so that it can't boot.
|
|
JTAG tools, like OpenOCD, are often then used to ``de-brick'' the
|
|
board by (re)installing working boot firmware.

|
|
These banks will often be visible to GDB through the target's memory map.

@section Erasing, Reading, Writing to Flash
|
|
@cindex flash erasing
|
|
@cindex flash reading
|
|
@cindex flash writing
|
|
@cindex flash programming
|
|
|
|
One feature distinguishing NOR flash from NAND or serial flash technologies
|
|
is that for read access, it acts exactly like any other addressible memory.
|
|
This means you can use normal memory read commands like @command{mdw} or
|
|
@command{dump_image} with it, with no special @command{flash} subcommands.
|
|
@xref{Memory access}, and @ref{Image access}.
|
|
|
|
Write access works differently. Flash memory normally needs to be erased
|
|
before it's written. Erasing a sector turns all of its bits to ones, and
|
|
writing can turn ones into zeroes. This is why there are special commands
|
|
for interactive erasing and writing, and why GDB needs to know which parts
|
|
of the address space hold NOR flash memory.
|
|
|
|
@quotation Note
|
|
Most of these erase and write commands leverage the fact that NOR flash
|
|
chips consume target address space. They implicitly refer to the current
|
|
JTAG target, and map from an address in that target's address space
|
|
back to a flash bank.
|
|
@comment In May 2009, those mappings may fail if any bank associated
|
|
@comment with that target doesn't succesfuly autoprobe ... bug worth fixing?
|
|
A few commands use abstract addressing based on bank and sector numbers,
|
|
and don't depend on searching the current target and its address space.
|
|
Avoid confusing the two command models.
|
|
@end quotation
|
|
|
|
Some flash chips implement software protection against accidental writes,
|
|
since such buggy writes could in some cases ``brick'' a system.
|
|
For such systems, erasing and writing may require sector protection to be
|
|
disabled first.
|
|
Examples include CFI flash such as ``Intel Advanced Bootblock flash'',
|
|
and AT91SAM7 on-chip flash.

|
|
No erasure is done before writing; when needed, that must be done

@section Flash Drivers, Options, and Commands
|
|
As noted above, the @command{flash bank} command requires a driver name,
|
|
and allows driver-specific options and behaviors.
|
|
Some drivers also activate driver-specific commands.
|
|
|
|
@subsection External Flash
|
|
|
|
@deffn {Flash Driver} cfi
|
|
@cindex Common Flash Interface
|
|
@cindex CFI
|
|
The ``Common Flash Interface'' (CFI) is the main standard for
|
|
external NOR flash chips, each of which connects to a
|
|
specific external chip select on the CPU.
|
|
Frequently the first such chip is used to boot the system.
|
|
Your board's @code{reset-init} handler might need to
|
|
configure additional chip selects using other commands (like: @command{mww} to
|
|
configure a bus and its timings) , or
|
|
perhaps configure a GPIO pin that controls the ``write protect'' pin
|
|
on the flash chip.
|
|
The CFI driver can use a target-specific working area to significantly
|
|
speed up operation.
|
|
|
|
The CFI driver can accept the following optional parameters, in any order:
|
|
|
|
@itemize
|
|
@item @var{jedec_probe} ... is used to detect certain non-CFI flash ROMs,
|
|
like AM29LV010 and similar types.
|
|
@item @var{x16_as_x8} ...
|
|
@end itemize
|
|
|
|
To configure two adjacent banks of 16 MBytes each, both sixteen bits (two bytes)
|
|
wide on a sixteen bit bus:
|
|
|
|
@example
|
|
flash bank cfi 0x00000000 0x01000000 2 2 $_TARGETNAME
|
|
flash bank cfi 0x01000000 0x01000000 2 2 $_TARGETNAME
|
|
@end example
|
|
@end deffn
|
|
|
|
@subsection Internal Flash (Microcontrollers)
|
|
|
|
@deffn {Flash Driver} aduc702x
|
|
The ADUC702x analog microcontrollers from ST Micro
|
|
include internal flash and use ARM7TDMI cores.
|
|
The aduc702x flash driver works with models ADUC7019 through ADUC7028.
|
|
The setup command only requires the @var{target} argument
|
|
since all devices in this family have the same memory layout.
|
|
|
|
@example
|
|
flash bank aduc702x 0 0 0 0 $_TARGETNAME
|
|
@end example
|
|
@end deffn
|
|
|
|
@deffn {Flash Driver} at91sam7
|
|
All members of the AT91SAM7 microcontroller family from Atmel
|
|
include internal flash and use ARM7TDMI cores.
|
|
The driver automatically recognizes a number of these chips using
|
|
the chip identification register, and autoconfigures itself.
|
|
|
|
@example
|
|
flash bank at91sam7 0 0 0 0 $_TARGETNAME
|
|
@end example
|
|
|
|
For chips which are not recognized by the controller driver, you must
|
|
provide additional parameters in the following order:
|
|
|
|
@itemize
|
|
@item @var{chip_model} ... label used with @command{flash info}
|
|
@item @var{banks}
|
|
@item @var{sectors_per_bank}
|
|
@item @var{pages_per_sector}
|
|
@item @var{pages_size}
|
|
@item @var{num_nvm_bits}
|
|
@item @var{freq_khz} ... required if an external clock is provided,
|
|
optional (but recommended) when the oscillator frequency is known
|
|
@end itemize
|
|
|
|
It is recommended that you provide zeroes for all of those values
|
|
except the clock frequency, so that everything except that frequency
|
|
will be autoconfigured.
|
|
Knowing the frequency helps ensure correct timings for flash access.
|
|
|
|
The flash controller handles erases automatically on a page (128/256 byte)
|
|
basis, so explicit erase commands are not necessary for flash programming.
|
|
However, there is an ``EraseAll`` command that can erase an entire flash
|
|
plane (of up to 256KB), and it will be used automatically when you issue
|
|
@command{flash erase_sector} or @command{flash erase_address} commands.
|
|
|
|
@deffn Command {at91sam7 gpnvm} bitnum (set|clear)
|
|
Set or clear a ``General Purpose Non-Volatle Memory'' (GPNVM)
|
|
bit for the processor. Each processor has a number of such bits,
|
|
used for controlling features such as brownout detection (so they
|
|
are not truly general purpose).
|
|

This assumes that the first flash bank (number 0) is associated with
|
|
the appropriate at91sam7 target.

@subsection str9xpec driver
|
|
@cindex str9xpec
|
|
|
|
Here is some background info to help
|
|
you better understand how this driver works. OpenOCD has two flash drivers for
|
|
the str9:
|
|
@enumerate
|
|
@item
|
|
Standard driver @option{str9x} programmed via the str9 core. Normally used for
|
|
flash programming as it is faster than the @option{str9xpec} driver.
|
|
@item
|
|
Direct programming @option{str9xpec} using the flash controller. This is an
|
|
ISC compilant (IEEE 1532) tap connected in series with the str9 core. The str9
|
|
core does not need to be running to program using this flash driver. Typical use
|
|
for this driver is locking/unlocking the target and programming the option bytes.
|
|
@end enumerate
|
|
|
|
Before we run any commands using the @option{str9xpec} driver we must first disable
|
|
the str9 core. This example assumes the @option{str9xpec} driver has been
|
|
configured for flash bank 0.
|
|
@example
|
|
# assert srst, we do not want core running
|
|
# while accessing str9xpec flash driver
|
|
jtag_reset 0 1
|
|
# turn off target polling
|
|
poll off
|
|
# disable str9 core
|
|
str9xpec enable_turbo 0
|
|
# read option bytes
|
|
str9xpec options_read 0
|
|
# re-enable str9 core
|
|
str9xpec disable_turbo 0
|
|
poll on
|
|
reset halt
|
|
@end example
|
|
The above example will read the str9 option bytes.
|
|
When performing a unlock remember that you will not be able to halt the str9 - it
|
|
has been locked. Halting the core is not required for the @option{str9xpec} driver
|
|
as mentioned above, just issue the commands above manually or from a telnet prompt.

@chapter NAND Flash Commands
|
|
@cindex NAND
|
|
|
|
Compared to NOR or SPI flash, NAND devices are inexpensive
|
|
and high density. Today's NAND chips, and multi-chip modules,
|
|
commonly hold multiple GigaBytes of data.
|
|
|
|
NAND chips consist of a number of ``erase blocks'' of a given
|
|
size (such as 128 KBytes), each of which is divided into a
|
|
number of pages (of perhaps 512 or 2048 bytes each). Each
|
|
page of a NAND flash has an ``out of band'' (OOB) area to hold
|
|
Error Correcting Code (ECC) and other metadata, usually 16 bytes
|
|
of OOB for every 512 bytes of page data.
|
|
|
|
One key characteristic of NAND flash is that its error rate
|
|
is higher than that of NOR flash. In normal operation, that
|
|
ECC is used to correct and detect errors. However, NAND
|
|
blocks can also wear out and become unusable; those blocks
|
|
are then marked "bad". NAND chips are even shipped from the
|
|
manufacturer with a few bad blocks. The highest density chips
|
|
use a technology (MLC) that wears out more quickly, so ECC
|
|
support is increasingly important as a way to detect blocks
|
|
that have begun to fail, and help to preserve data integrity
|
|
with techniques such as wear leveling.
|
|
|
|
Software is used to manage the ECC. Some controllers don't
|
|
support ECC directly; in those cases, software ECC is used.
|
|
Other controllers speed up the ECC calculations with hardware.
|
|
Single-bit error correction hardware is routine. Controllers
|
|
geared for newer MLC chips may correct 4 or more errors for
|
|
every 512 bytes of data.
|
|
|
|
You will need to make sure that any data you write using
|
|
OpenOCD includes the apppropriate kind of ECC. For example,
|
|
that may mean passing the @code{oob_softecc} flag when
|
|
writing NAND data, or ensuring that the correct hardware
|
|
ECC mode is used.
|
|
|
|
The basic steps for using NAND devices include:
|
|
@enumerate
|
|
@item Declare via the command @command{nand device}
|
|
@* Do this in a board-specific configuration file,
|
|
passing parameters as needed by the controller.
|
|
@item Configure each device using @command{nand probe}.
|
|
@* Do this only after the associated target is set up,
|
|
such as in its reset-init script or in procures defined
|
|
to access that device.
|
|
@item Operate on the flash via @command{nand subcommand}
|
|
@* Often commands to manipulate the flash are typed by a human, or run
|
|
via a script in some automated way. Common task include writing a
|
|
boot loader, operating system, or other data needed to initialize or
|
|
de-brick a board.
|
|
@end enumerate
|
|
|
|
@b{NOTE:} At the time this text was written, the largest NAND
|
|
flash fully supported by OpenOCD is 2 GiBytes (16 GiBits).
|
|
This is because the variables used to hold offsets and lengths
|
|
are only 32 bits wide.
|
|
(Larger chips may work in some cases, unless an offset or length
|
|
is larger than 0xffffffff, the largest 32-bit unsigned integer.)
|
|
Some larger devices will work, since they are actually multi-chip
|
|
modules with two smaller chips and individual chipselect lines.
|
|
|
|
@section NAND Configuration Commands
|
|
@cindex NAND configuration
|
|
|
|
NAND chips must be declared in configuration scripts,
|
|
plus some additional configuration that's done after
|
|
OpenOCD has initialized.
|
|
|
|
@deffn {Config Command} {nand device} controller target [configparams...]
|
|
Declares a NAND device, which can be read and written to
|
|
after it has been configured through @command{nand probe}.
|
|
In OpenOCD, devices are single chips; this is unlike some
|
|
operating systems, which may manage multiple chips as if
|
|
they were a single (larger) device.
|
|
In some cases, configuring a device will activate extra
|
|
commands; see the controller-specific documentation.
|
|
|
|
@b{NOTE:} This command is not available after OpenOCD
|
|
initialization has completed. Use it in board specific
|
|
configuration files, not interactively.
|
|
|
|
@itemize @bullet
|
|
@item @var{controller} ... identifies the controller driver
|
|
associated with the NAND device being declared.
|
|
@xref{NAND Driver List}.
|
|
@item @var{target} ... names the target used when issuing
|
|
commands to the NAND controller.
|
|
@comment Actually, it's currently a controller-specific parameter...
|
|
@item @var{configparams} ... controllers may support, or require,
|
|
additional parameters. See the controller-specific documentation
|

@deffn Command {nand list}
|

Prints a one-line summary of each device declared
|
|
using @command{nand device}, numbered from zero.
|
|
Note that un-probed devices show no details.
|
|
@end deffn
|
|
|
|
@deffn Command {nand probe} num
|
|
Probes the specified device to determine key characteristics
|
|
like its page and block sizes, and how many blocks it has.
|
|
The @var{num} parameter is the value shown by @command{nand list}.
|
|
You must (successfully) probe a device before you can use
|
|
it with most other NAND commands.

@section Erasing, Reading, Writing to NAND Flash
|

@deffn Command {nand dump} num filename offset length [oob_option]
|
|
@cindex NAND reading
|
|
Reads binary data from the NAND device and writes it to the file,
|
|
starting at the specified offset.
|
|
The @var{num} parameter is the value shown by @command{nand list}.
|
|
|
|
Use a complete path name for @var{filename}, so you don't depend
|
|
on the directory used to start the OpenOCD server.
|
|
|
|
The @var{offset} and @var{length} must be exact multiples of the
|
|
device's page size. They describe a data region; the OOB data
|
|
associated with each such page may also be accessed.
|
|
|
|
@b{NOTE:} At the time this text was written, no error correction
|
|
was done on the data that's read, unless raw access was disabled
|
|
and the underlying NAND controller driver had a @code{read_page}
|
|
method which handled that error correction.
|
|
|
|
By default, only page data is saved to the specified file.
|
|
Use an @var{oob_option} parameter to save OOB data:
|
|
@itemize @bullet
|
|
@item no oob_* parameter
|
|
@*Output file holds only page data; OOB is discarded.
|
|
@item @code{oob_raw}
|
|
@*Output file interleaves page data and OOB data;
|
|
the file will be longer than "length" by the size of the
|
|
spare areas associated with each data page.
|
|
Note that this kind of "raw" access is different from
|
|
what's implied by @command{nand raw_access}, which just
|
|
controls whether a hardware-aware access method is used.
|
|
@item @code{oob_only}
|
|
@*Output file has only raw OOB data, and will
|
|
be smaller than "length" since it will contain only the
|
|
spare areas associated with each data page.

@deffn Command {nand erase} num offset length

@cindex NAND erasing
|

@cindex NAND programming
|
|
Erases blocks on the specified NAND device, starting at the
|
|
specified @var{offset} and continuing for @var{length} bytes.
|
|
Both of those values must be exact multiples of the device's
|
|
block size, and the region they specify must fit entirely in the chip.
|
|
The @var{num} parameter is the value shown by @command{nand list}.
|
|
|
|
@b{NOTE:} This command will try to erase bad blocks, when told
|
|
to do so, which will probably invalidate the manufacturer's bad
|
|
block marker.
|
|
For the remainder of the current server session, @command{nand info}
|
|
will still report that the block ``is'' bad.
|
|
@end deffn
|
|
|
|
@deffn Command {nand write} num filename offset [option...]
|
|
@cindex NAND writing
|
|
@cindex NAND programming
|
|
Writes binary data from the file into the specified NAND device,
|
|
starting at the specified offset. Those pages should already
|
|
have been erased; you can't change zero bits to one bits.
|
|
The @var{num} parameter is the value shown by @command{nand list}.
|
|
|
|
Use a complete path name for @var{filename}, so you don't depend
|
|
on the directory used to start the OpenOCD server.
|
|
|
|
The @var{offset} must be an exact multiple of the device's page size.
|
|
All data in the file will be written, assuming it doesn't run
|
|
past the end of the device.
|
|
Only full pages are written, and any extra space in the last
|
|
page will be filled with 0xff bytes. (That includes OOB data,
|
|
if that's being written.)
|
|
|
|
@b{NOTE:} At the time this text was written, bad blocks are
|
|
ignored. That is, this routine will not skip bad blocks,
|
|
but will instead try to write them. This can cause problems.
|
|
|
|
Provide at most one @var{option} parameter. With some
|
|
NAND drivers, the meanings of these parameters may change
|
|
if @command{nand raw_access} was used to disable hardware ECC.
|
|
@itemize @bullet
|
|
@item no oob_* parameter
|
|
@*File has only page data, which is written.
|
|
If raw acccess is in use, the OOB area will not be written.
|
|
Otherwise, if the underlying NAND controller driver has
|
|
a @code{write_page} routine, that routine may write the OOB
|
|
with hardware-computed ECC data.
|
|
@item @code{oob_only}
|
|
@*File has only raw OOB data, which is written to the OOB area.
|
|
Each page's data area stays untouched. @i{This can be a dangerous
|
|
option}, since it can invalidate the ECC data.
|
|
You may need to force raw access to use this mode.
|
|
@item @code{oob_raw}
|
|
@*File interleaves data and OOB data, both of which are written
|
|
If raw access is enabled, the data is written first, then the
|
|
un-altered OOB.
|
|
Otherwise, if the underlying NAND controller driver has
|
|
a @code{write_page} routine, that routine may modify the OOB
|
|
before it's written, to include hardware-computed ECC data.
|
|
@item @code{oob_softecc}
|
|
@*File has only page data, which is written.
|
|
The OOB area is filled with 0xff, except for a standard 1-bit
|
|
software ECC code stored in conventional locations.
|
|
You might need to force raw access to use this mode, to prevent
|
|
the underlying driver from applying hardware ECC.
|
|
@item @code{oob_softecc_kw}
|
|
@*File has only page data, which is written.
|
|
The OOB area is filled with 0xff, except for a 4-bit software ECC
|

@deffn Command {nand check_bad_blocks} [offset length]
|

device. If no parameters are provided, checks the whole
|
|
device; otherwise, starts at the specified @var{offset} and
|
|
continues for @var{length} bytes.
|
|
Both of those values must be exact multiples of the device's

The @var{num} parameter is the value shown by @command{nand list}.
|

@b{NOTE:} Before using this command you should force raw access

@deffn Command {nand raw_access} num <enable|disable>

Sets or clears an flag affecting how page I/O is done.
|

The @var{num} parameter is the value shown by @command{nand list}.
|
|
|
|
This flag is cleared (disabled) by default, but changing that
|
|
value won't affect all NAND devices. The key factor is whether
|
|
the underlying driver provides @code{read_page} or @code{write_page}
|
|
methods. If it doesn't provide those methods, the setting of
|
|
this flag is irrelevant; all access is effectively ``raw''.
|
|
|

When those methods exist, they are normally used when reading
|
|
data (@command{nand dump} or reading bad block markers) or
|
|
writing it (@command{nand write}). However, enabling
|
|
raw access (setting the flag) prevents use of those methods,
|
|
bypassing hardware ECC logic.

@i{This can be a dangerous option}, since writing blocks

@section NAND Drivers, Options, and Commands

driver-specific options and behaviors.

Some controllers also activate controller-specific commands.
|
|
|
|
@deffn {NAND Driver} davinci
|
|
This driver handles the NAND controllers found on DaVinci family
|
|
chips from Texas Instruments.
|
|
It takes three extra parameters:
|
|
address of the NAND chip;
|
|
hardware ECC mode to use (hwecc1, hwecc4, hwecc4_infix);
|
|
address of the AEMIF controller on this processor.
|
|
@example
|
|
nand device davinci dm355.arm 0x02000000 hwecc4 0x01e10000
|
|
@end example
|
|
All DaVinci processors support the single-bit ECC hardware,
|
|
and newer ones also support the four-bit ECC hardware.
|
|
The @code{write_page} and @code{read_page} methods are used
|
|
to implement those ECC modes, unless they are disabled using
|
|
the @command{nand raw_access} command.
|
|
@end deffn
|
|
|
|
@deffn {NAND Driver} lpc3180

|
These controllers require an extra @command{nand device}
|
|
parameter: the clock rate used by the controller.
|
|
@deffn Command {lpc3180 select} num [mlc|slc]
|
|
Configures use of the MLC or SLC controller mode.
|
|
MLC implies use of hardware ECC.

@chapter General Commands
|
|
@cindex commands
|
|
|
|
The commands documented in this chapter here are common commands that
|
|
you, as a human, may want to type and see the output of. Configuration type
|
|
commands are documented elsewhere.
|
|
|
|
Intent:
|
|
@itemize @bullet
|
|
@item @b{Source Of Commands}
|
|
@* OpenOCD commands can occur in a configuration script (discussed
|
|
elsewhere) or typed manually by a human or supplied programatically,
|
|
or via one of several TCP/IP Ports.
|
|
|
|
@item @b{From the human}
|
|
@* A human should interact with the telnet interface (default port: 4444)
|
|
or via GDB (default port 3333).
|
|
|
|
To issue commands from within a GDB session, use the @option{monitor}
|
|
command, e.g. use @option{monitor poll} to issue the @option{poll}
|
|
command. All output is relayed through the GDB session.
|
|
|
|
@item @b{Machine Interface}
|
|
The Tcl interface's intent is to be a machine interface. The default Tcl
|
|
port is 5555.

@section Daemon Commands
|
|
|
|
@subsection sleep [@var{msec}]
|
|
@cindex sleep
|
|
@*Wait for n milliseconds before resuming. Useful in connection with script files
|
|
(@var{script} command and @var{target_script} configuration).
|
|
|
|
@subsection shutdown
|
|
@cindex shutdown
|
|
@*Close the OpenOCD daemon, disconnecting all clients (GDB, telnet, other).
|
|
|
|
@anchor{debug_level}
|
|
@subsection debug_level [@var{n}]
|
|
@cindex debug_level
|
|
@*Display or adjust debug level to n<0-3>
|
|
|
|
@subsection fast [@var{enable|disable}]
|
|
@cindex fast
|
|
@*Default disabled. Set default behaviour of OpenOCD to be "fast and dangerous". For instance ARM7/9 DCC memory
|
|
downloads and fast memory access will work if the JTAG interface isn't too fast and
|
|
the core doesn't run at a too low frequency. Note that this option only changes the default
|
|
and that the indvidual options, like DCC memory downloads, can be enabled and disabled
|
|
individually.
|
|
|
|
The target specific "dangerous" optimisation tweaking options may come and go
|
|
as more robust and user friendly ways are found to ensure maximum throughput
|
|
and robustness with a minimum of configuration.
|
|
|
|
Typically the "fast enable" is specified first on the command line:
|
|
|
|
@example
|
|
openocd -c "fast enable" -c "interface dummy" -f target/str710.cfg
|
|
@end example
|
|
|
|
@subsection echo <@var{message}>
|
|
@cindex echo
|
|
@*Output message to stdio. e.g. echo "Programming - please wait"
|
|
|
|
@subsection log_output <@var{file}>
|
|
@cindex log_output
|
|
@*Redirect logging to <file> (default: stderr)
|
|
|
|
@subsection script <@var{file}>
|
|
@cindex script
|
|
@*Execute commands from <file>
|
|
See also: ``source [find FILENAME]''
|
|
|
|
@section Target state handling
|
|
@subsection power <@var{on}|@var{off}>
|
|
@cindex reg
|
|
@*Turn power switch to target on/off.
|
|
No arguments: print status.
|
|
Not all interfaces support this.
|
|
|
|
@subsection reg [@option{#}|@option{name}] [value]
|
|
@cindex reg
|
|
@*Access a single register by its number[@option{#}] or by its [@option{name}].
|
|
No arguments: list all available registers for the current target.
|
|
Number or name argument: display a register.
|
|
Number or name and value arguments: set register value.
|
|
|
|
@subsection poll [@option{on}|@option{off}]
|
|
@cindex poll
|
|
@*Poll the target for its current state. If the target is in debug mode, architecture
|
|
specific information about the current state is printed. An optional parameter
|
|
allows continuous polling to be enabled and disabled.
|
|
|
|
@subsection halt [@option{ms}]
|
|
@cindex halt
|
|
@*Send a halt request to the target and wait for it to halt for up to [@option{ms}] milliseconds.
|
|
Default [@option{ms}] is 5 seconds if no arg given.
|
|
Optional arg @option{ms} is a timeout in milliseconds. Using 0 as the [@option{ms}]
|
|
will stop OpenOCD from waiting.
|
|
|
|
@subsection wait_halt [@option{ms}]
|
|
@cindex wait_halt
|
|
@*Wait for the target to enter debug mode. Optional [@option{ms}] is
|
|
a timeout in milliseconds. Default [@option{ms}] is 5 seconds if no
|
|
arg is given.
|
|
|
|
@subsection resume [@var{address}]
|
|
@cindex resume
|
|
@*Resume the target at its current code position, or at an optional address.
|
|
OpenOCD will wait 5 seconds for the target to resume.
|
|
|
|
@subsection step [@var{address}]
|
|
@cindex step
|
|
@*Single-step the target at its current code position, or at an optional address.
|
|
|
|
@anchor{Reset Command}
|
|
@subsection reset [@option{run}|@option{halt}|@option{init}]
|
|
@cindex reset
|
|
@*Perform a hard-reset. The optional parameter specifies what should
|
|
happen after the reset.
|
|
If there is no parameter, a @command{reset run} is executed.
|
|
The other options will not work on all systems.
|
|
@xref{Reset Configuration}.
|
|
@itemize @minus
|
|
@item @b{run}
|
|
@cindex reset run
|
|
@*Let the target run.
|
|
@item @b{halt}
|
|
@cindex reset halt
|
|
@*Immediately halt the target (works only with certain configurations).
|
|
@item @b{init}
|
|
@cindex reset init
|
|
@*Immediately halt the target, and execute the reset script (works only with certain
|
|
configurations)
|
|
@end itemize
|
|
|
|
@subsection soft_reset_halt
|
|
@cindex reset
|
|
@*Requesting target halt and executing a soft reset. This is often used
|
|
when a target cannot be reset and halted. The target, after reset is
|
|
released begins to execute code. OpenOCD attempts to stop the CPU and
|
|
then sets the program counter back to the reset vector. Unfortunately
|
|
the code that was executed may have left the hardware in an unknown
|
|
state.

|
|
@anchor{Memory access}
|
|
@section Memory access commands
|
|
@subsection meminfo
|
|
display available RAM memory on OpenOCD host. Used in OpenOCD regression testing scripts. Mainly
|
|
useful on embedded targets, PC type hosts have complimentary tools like Valgrind to address
|
|
resource tracking problems.
|
|
@subsection Memory peek/poke type commands
|
|
These commands allow accesses of a specific size to the memory
|
|
system. Often these are used to configure the current target in some
|
|
special way. For example - one may need to write certian values to the
|
|
SDRAM controller to enable SDRAM.

@b{fast_load_image} <@var{file}> <@var{address}> [@option{bin}|@option{ihex}|@option{elf}]
|
|
@cindex fast_load_image
|
|
@*Normally you should be using @b{load_image} or GDB load. However, for
|
|
testing purposes or when I/O overhead is significant(OpenOCD running on an embedded
|
|
host), storing the image in memory and uploading the image to the target
|
|
can be a way to upload e.g. multiple debug sessions when the binary does not change.
|
|
Arguments are the same as @b{load_image}, but the image is stored in OpenOCD host
|
|
memory, i.e. does not affect target. This approach is also useful when profiling
|
|
target programming performance as I/O and target programming can easily be profiled
|
|
separately.
|
|
@subsection fast_load
|
|
@b{fast_load}
|

@subsection dump_image
|
|
@b{dump_image} <@var{file}> <@var{address}> <@var{size}>

@cindex Core Specific Commands
|
|
|
|
Most CPUs have specialized JTAG operations to support debugging.
|
|
OpenOCD packages most such operations in its standard command framework.
|
|
Some of those operations don't fit well in that framework, so they are
|
|
exposed here as architecture or implementation (core) specific commands.
|
|
|
|
@anchor{ARM Tracing}
|
|
@section ARM Tracing
|
|
@cindex ETM
|
|
@cindex ETB
|
|
|
|
CPUs based on ARM cores may include standard tracing interfaces,
|
|
based on an ``Embedded Trace Module'' (ETM) which sends voluminous
|
|
address and data bus trace records to a ``Trace Port''.
|
|
|
|
@itemize
|
|
@item
|
|
Development-oriented boards will sometimes provide a high speed
|
|
trace connector for collecting that data, when the particular CPU
|
|
supports such an interface.
|
|
(The standard connector is a 38-pin Mictor, with both JTAG
|
|
and trace port support.)
|
|
Those trace connectors are supported by higher end JTAG adapters
|
|
and some logic analyzer modules; frequently those modules can
|
|
buffer several megabytes of trace data.
|
|
Configuring an ETM coupled to such an external trace port belongs
|
|
in the board-specific configuration file.
|
|
@item
|
|
If the CPU doesn't provide an external interface, it probably
|
|
has an ``Embedded Trace Buffer'' (ETB) on the chip, which is a
|
|
dedicated SRAM. 4KBytes is one common ETB size.
|
|
Configuring an ETM coupled only to an ETB belongs in the CPU-specific
|
|
(target) configuration file, since it works the same on all boards.
|
|
@end itemize
|
|
|
|
ETM support in OpenOCD doesn't seem to be widely used yet.
|
|
|
|
@quotation Issues
|
|
ETM support may be buggy, and at least some @command{etm config}
|
|
parameters should be detected by asking the ETM for them.
|
|
It seems like a GDB hookup should be possible,
|
|
as well as triggering trace on specific events
|
|
(perhaps @emph{handling IRQ 23} or @emph{calls foo()}).
|
|
There should be GUI tools to manipulate saved trace data and help
|
|
analyse it in conjunction with the source code.
|
|
It's unclear how much of a common interface is shared
|
|
with the current XScale trace support, or should be
|
|
shared with eventual Nexus-style trace module support.
|
|
@end quotation
|
|
|
|
@subsection ETM Configuration
|
|
ETM setup is coupled with the trace port driver configuration.
|
|
|
|
@deffn {Config Command} {etm config} target width mode clocking driver
|
|
Declares the ETM associated with @var{target}, and associates it
|
|
with a given trace port @var{driver}. @xref{Trace Port Drivers}.
|
|
|
|
Several of the parameters must reflect the trace port configuration.
|
|
The @var{width} must be either 4, 8, or 16.
|
|
The @var{mode} must be @option{normal}, @option{multiplexted},
|
|
or @option{demultiplexted}.
|
|
The @var{clocking} must be @option{half} or @option{full}.
|
|
|
|
@quotation Note
|
|
You can see the ETM registers using the @command{reg} command, although
|
|
not all of those possible registers are present in every ETM.

|
|
not connected to anything (on-chip ETB or off-chip trace connector).
|
|
@emph{This driver lets OpenOCD talk to the ETM, but it does not expose
|
|
any trace data collection.}

to use on-chip ETB memory.
|
|
@deffn {Config Command} {etb config} target etb_tap

connected to an off-chip trace connector.
|
|
|
|
@deffn {Config Command} {oocd_trace config} target tty

ARM9TDMI, ARM920T or ARM926EJ-S.
|

They are available in addition to the ARMv4/5 commands,
|

and any other core-specific commands that may be available.
|
|
|
|
@deffn Command {arm7_9 dbgrq} (enable|disable)
|
|
Control use of the EmbeddedIce DBGRQ signal to force entry into debug mode,
|
|
instead of breakpoints. This should be
|
|
safe for all but ARM7TDMI--S cores (like Philips LPC).
|
|
@end deffn

@cindex DCC
|

Control the use of the debug communications channel (DCC) to write larger (>128 byte)
|
|
amounts of memory. DCC downloads offer a huge speed increase, but might be
|
|
unsafe, especially with targets running at very low speeds. This command was introduced
|
|
with OpenOCD rev. 60, and requires a few bytes of working area.

@deffn Command {arm7_9 fast_memory_access} (enable|disable)
|
|
Enable or disable memory writes and reads that don't check completion of
|
|
the operation. This provides a huge speed increase, especially with USB JTAG
|
|
cables (FT2232), but might be unsafe if used with targets running at very low
|
|
speeds, like the 32kHz startup clock of an AT91RM9200.

@deffn {Debug Command} {arm7_9 write_core_reg} num mode word
|
|
@emph{This is intended for use while debugging OpenOCD; you probably

|
shouldn't use it.}
|
|
|
|
Writes a 32-bit @var{word} to register @var{num} (from 0 to 16)
|
|
as used in the specified @var{mode}
|
|
(where e.g. mode 16 is "user" and mode 19 is "supervisor";
|
|
the M4..M0 bits of the PSR).
|
|
Registers 0..15 are the normal CPU registers such as r0(0), r1(1) ... pc(15).
|
|
Register 16 is the mode-specific SPSR,
|
|
unless the specified mode is 0xffffffff (32-bit all-ones)
|
|
in which case register 16 is the CPSR.
|
|
The write goes directly to the CPU, bypassing the register cache.

@emph{This is intended for use while debugging OpenOCD; you probably

|
|
|
|
If the second parameter is zero, writes @var{word} to the
|
|
Current Program Status register (CPSR).
|
|
Else writes @var{word} to the current mode's Saved PSR (SPSR).
|
|
In both cases, this bypasses the register cache.

@deffn {Debug Command} {arm7_9 write_xpsr_im8} byte rotate (0|1)
|

@emph{This is intended for use while debugging OpenOCD; you probably

shouldn't use it.}
|
|
|
|
Writes eight bits to the CPSR or SPSR,
|
|
first rotating them by @math{2*rotate} bits,
|
|
and bypassing the register cache.
|
|
This has lower JTAG overhead than writing the entire CPSR or SPSR

|
with @command{arm7_9 write_xpsr}.

@cindex TFTP
|
|
If OpenOCD runs on an embedded host(as ZY1000 does), then TFTP can
|
|
be used to access files on PCs (either the developer's PC or some other PC).
|
|
|
|
The way this works on the ZY1000 is to prefix a filename by
|
|
"/tftp/ip/" and append the TFTP path on the TFTP
|
|
server (tftpd). For example,
|
|
|
|
@example
|
|
load_image /tftp/10.0.0.96/c:\temp\abc.elf
|
|
@end example
|
|
|
|
will load c:\temp\abc.elf from the developer pc (10.0.0.96) into memory as
|
|
if the file was hosted on the embedded host.
|
|
|
|
In order to achieve decent performance, you must choose a TFTP server
|
|
that supports a packet size bigger than the default packet size (512 bytes). There
|
|
are numerous TFTP servers out there (free and commercial) and you will have to do
|
|
a bit of googling to find something that fits your requirements.

@chapter GDB and OpenOCD
|
|
@cindex GDB
|
|
OpenOCD complies with the remote gdbserver protocol, and as such can be used
|
|
to debug remote targets.
|
|
|
|
@anchor{Connecting to GDB}
|
|
@section Connecting to GDB
|
|
@cindex Connecting to GDB
|
|
Use GDB 6.7 or newer with OpenOCD if you run into trouble. For
|
|
instance GDB 6.3 has a known bug that produces bogus memory access
|
|
errors, which has since been fixed: look up 1836 in
|
|
@url{http://sourceware.org/cgi-bin/gnatsweb.pl?database=gdb}
|
|
|
|
OpenOCD can communicate with GDB in two ways:
|
|
|
|
@enumerate
|
|
@item
|
|
A socket (TCP/IP) connection is typically started as follows:
|
|
@example
|
|
target remote localhost:3333
|
|
@end example
|
|
This would cause GDB to connect to the gdbserver on the local pc using port 3333.
|
|
@item
|
|
A pipe connection is typically started as follows:
|
|
@example
|
|
target remote | openocd --pipe
|
|
@end example
|
|
This would cause GDB to run OpenOCD and communicate using pipes (stdin/stdout).
|
|
Using this method has the advantage of GDB starting/stopping OpenOCD for the debug
|
|
session.
|
|
@end enumerate
|
|
|
|
To list the available OpenOCD commands type @command{monitor help} on the
|
|
GDB command line.
|
|
|
|
OpenOCD supports the gdb @option{qSupported} packet, this enables information
|
|
to be sent by the GDB remote server (i.e. OpenOCD) to GDB. Typical information includes
|
|
packet size and the device's memory map.
|
|
|
|
Previous versions of OpenOCD required the following GDB options to increase
|
|
the packet size and speed up GDB communication:
|
|
@example
|
|
set remote memory-write-packet-size 1024
|
|
set remote memory-write-packet-size fixed
|
|
set remote memory-read-packet-size 1024
|
|
set remote memory-read-packet-size fixed
|
|
@end example
|
|
This is now handled in the @option{qSupported} PacketSize and should not be required.
|
|
|
|
@section Programming using GDB
|
|
@cindex Programming using GDB
|
|
|
|
By default the target memory map is sent to GDB. This can be disabled by
|
|
the following OpenOCD configuration option:
|
|
@example
|
|
gdb_memory_map disable
|
|
@end example
|
|
For this to function correctly a valid flash configuration must also be set
|
|
in OpenOCD. For faster performance you should also configure a valid
|
|
working area.
|
|
|
|
Informing GDB of the memory map of the target will enable GDB to protect any
|
|
flash areas of the target and use hardware breakpoints by default. This means
|
|
that the OpenOCD option @command{gdb_breakpoint_override} is not required when
|
|
using a memory map. @xref{gdb_breakpoint_override}.
|
|
|
|
To view the configured memory map in GDB, use the GDB command @option{info mem}
|
|
All other unassigned addresses within GDB are treated as RAM.
|
|
|
|
GDB 6.8 and higher set any memory area not in the memory map as inaccessible.
|
|
This can be changed to the old behaviour by using the following GDB command
|
|
@example
|
|
set mem inaccessible-by-default off
|
|
@end example
|
|
|
|
If @command{gdb_flash_program enable} is also used, GDB will be able to
|
|
program any flash memory using the vFlash interface.
|
|
|
|
GDB will look at the target memory map when a load command is given, if any
|
|
areas to be programmed lie within the target flash area the vFlash packets
|
|
will be used.
|
|
|
|
If the target needs configuring before GDB programming, an event
|
|
script can be executed:
|
|
@example
|
|
$_TARGETNAME configure -event EVENTNAME BODY
|
|
@end example
|
|
|
|
To verify any flash programming the GDB command @option{compare-sections}
|
|
can be used.

|
|
@cindex Tcl Scripting API
|
|
@cindex Tcl scripts
|
|
@section API rules
|
|
|
|
The commands are stateless. E.g. the telnet command line has a concept
|
|
of currently active target, the Tcl API proc's take this sort of state
|
|
information as an argument to each proc.
|
|
|
|
There are three main types of return values: single value, name value
|
|
pair list and lists.
|
|
|
|
Name value pair. The proc 'foo' below returns a name/value pair
|
|
list.
|
|
|
|
@verbatim
|
|
|
|
> set foo(me) Duane
|
|
> set foo(you) Oyvind
|
|
> set foo(mouse) Micky
|
|
> set foo(duck) Donald
|
|
|
|
If one does this:
|
|
|
|
> set foo
|
|
|
|
The result is:
|
|
|
|
me Duane you Oyvind mouse Micky duck Donald
|
|
|
|
Thus, to get the names of the associative array is easy:
|
|
|
|
foreach { name value } [set foo] {
|
|
puts "Name: $name, Value: $value"
|
|
}
|
|
@end verbatim
|
|
|
|
Lists returned must be relatively small. Otherwise a range
|
|
should be passed in to the proc in question.
|
|
|
|
@section Internal low-level Commands
|
|
|
|
By low-level, the intent is a human would not directly use these commands.
|
|
|
|
Low-level commands are (should be) prefixed with "ocd_", e.g.
|
|
@command{ocd_flash_banks}
|
|
is the low level API upon which @command{flash banks} is implemented.
|

|
|
@item @b{ocd_array2mem} <@var{varname}> <@var{width}> <@var{addr}> <@var{nelems}>
|
|
|

Convert a Tcl array to memory locations and write the values
|
|
@item @b{ocd_flash_banks} <@var{driver}> <@var{base}> <@var{size}> <@var{chip_width}> <@var{bus_width}> <@var{target}> [@option{driver options} ...]

|
|
@end itemize
|
|

|
OpenOCD commands can consist of two words, e.g. "flash banks". The
|
|
startup.tcl "unknown" proc will translate this into a Tcl proc
|
|
called "flash_banks".
|
|
|
|
@section OpenOCD specific Global Variables
|
|
|
|
@subsection HostOS
|
|
|
|
Real Tcl has ::tcl_platform(), and platform::identify, and many other

|
variables. JimTCL, as implemented in OpenOCD creates $HostOS which
|
|
holds one of the following values:
|
|
|
|
@itemize @bullet
|
|
@item @b{winxx} Built using Microsoft Visual Studio
|
|
@item @b{linux} Linux is the underlying operating sytem
|

@item @b{darwin} Darwin (mac-os) is the underlying operating sytem.
|
|
@item @b{cygwin} Running under Cygwin
|
|
@item @b{mingw32} Running under MingW32
|
|
@item @b{other} Unknown, none of the above.

|
@end itemize

|
Note: 'winxx' was choosen because today (March-2009) no distinction is made between Win32 and Win64.
|
|
|
|
@quotation Note
|
|
We should add support for a variable like Tcl variable
|
|
@code{tcl_platform(platform)}, it should be called

@cindex adaptive clocking
|
|
@*
|
|
|
|
In digital circuit design it is often refered to as ``clock
|
|
synchronisation'' the JTAG interface uses one clock (TCK or TCLK)
|
|
operating at some speed, your target is operating at another. The two
|
|
clocks are not synchronised, they are ``asynchronous''
|
|
|
|
In order for the two to work together they must be synchronised. Otherwise
|
|
the two systems will get out of sync with each other and nothing will
|
|
work. There are 2 basic options:
|
|
@enumerate
|
|
@item
|
|
Use a special circuit.
|
|
@item
|
|
One clock must be some multiple slower than the other.
|
|
@end enumerate
|
|
|
|
@b{Does this really matter?} For some chips and some situations, this
|
|
is a non-issue (i.e.: A 500MHz ARM926) but for others - for example some
|
|
Atmel SAM7 and SAM9 chips start operation from reset at 32kHz -
|
|
program/enable the oscillators and eventually the main clock. It is in
|
|
those critical times you must slow the JTAG clock to sometimes 1 to
|
|
4kHz.
|
|
|
|
Imagine debugging a 500MHz ARM926 hand held battery powered device
|
|
that ``deep sleeps'' at 32kHz between every keystroke. It can be
|
|
painful.
|
|
|
|
@b{Solution #1 - A special circuit}
|
|
|
|
In order to make use of this, your JTAG dongle must support the RTCK
|
|
feature. Not all dongles support this - keep reading!
|
|
|
|
The RTCK signal often found in some ARM chips is used to help with
|
|
this problem. ARM has a good description of the problem described at
|
|
this link: @url{http://www.arm.com/support/faqdev/4170.html} [checked
|
|
28/nov/2008]. Link title: ``How does the JTAG synchronisation logic
|
|
work? / how does adaptive clocking work?''.
|
|
|
|
The nice thing about adaptive clocking is that ``battery powered hand
|
|
held device example'' - the adaptiveness works perfectly all the
|
|
time. One can set a break point or halt the system in the deep power
|
|
down code, slow step out until the system speeds up.
|
|
|
|
@b{Solution #2 - Always works - but may be slower}
|
|
|
|
Often this is a perfectly acceptable solution.
|
|
|
|
In most simple terms: Often the JTAG clock must be 1/10 to 1/12 of
|
|
the target clock speed. But what that ``magic division'' is varies
|
|
depending on the chips on your board. @b{ARM rule of thumb} Most ARM
|
|
based systems require an 8:1 division. @b{Xilinx rule of thumb} is
|
|
1/12 the clock speed.
|
|
|
|
Note: Many FTDI2232C based JTAG dongles are limited to 6MHz.
|
|
|
|
You can still debug the 'low power' situations - you just need to
|
|
manually adjust the clock speed at every step. While painful and
|
|
tedious, it is not always practical.
|
|
|
|
It is however easy to ``code your way around it'' - i.e.: Cheat a little,
|
|
have a special debug mode in your application that does a ``high power
|
|
sleep''. If you are careful - 98% of your problems can be debugged
|
|
this way.
|
|
|
|
To set the JTAG frequency use the command:
|
|
|
|
@example
|
|
# Example: 1.234MHz
|
|
jtag_khz 1234
|
|
@end example

|
|

|
@item @b{Win32 Pathnames} Why don't backslashes work in Windows paths?
|
|
|
|
OpenOCD uses Tcl and a backslash is an escape char. Use @{ and @}
|
|
around Windows filenames.
|
|
|
|
@example
|
|
> echo \a
|
|
|
|
> echo @{\a@}
|
|
\a
|
|
> echo "\a"

|
@item @b{Missing: cygwin1.dll} OpenOCD complains about a missing cygwin1.dll.
|
|
|
|
Make sure you have Cygwin installed, or at least a version of OpenOCD that
|
|
claims to come with all the necessary DLLs. When using Cygwin, try launching
|
|
OpenOCD from the Cygwin shell.
|
|
|
|
@item @b{Breakpoint Issue} I'm trying to set a breakpoint using GDB (or a frontend like Insight or
|
|
Eclipse), but OpenOCD complains that "Info: arm7_9_common.c:213
|
|
arm7_9_add_breakpoint(): sw breakpoint requested, but software breakpoints not enabled".
|
|
|
|
GDB issues software breakpoints when a normal breakpoint is requested, or to implement
|
|
source-line single-stepping. On ARMv4T systems, like ARM7TDMI, ARM720T or ARM920T,
|
|
software breakpoints consume one of the two available hardware breakpoints.
|
|
|
|
@item @b{LPC2000 Flash} When erasing or writing LPC2000 on-chip flash, the operation fails at random.
|
|
|
|
Make sure the core frequency specified in the @option{flash lpc2000} line matches the
|
|
clock at the time you're programming the flash. If you've specified the crystal's
|
|
frequency, make sure the PLL is disabled. If you've specified the full core speed
|
|
(e.g. 60MHz), make sure the PLL is enabled.
|
|
|
|
@item @b{Amontec Chameleon} When debugging using an Amontec Chameleon in its JTAG Accelerator configuration,
|
|
I keep getting "Error: amt_jtagaccel.c:184 amt_wait_scan_busy(): amt_jtagaccel timed
|
|
out while waiting for end of scan, rtck was disabled".
|
|
|
|
Make sure your PC's parallel port operates in EPP mode. You might have to try several
|
|
settings in your PC BIOS (ECP, EPP, and different versions of those).
|
|
|
|
@item @b{Data Aborts} When debugging with OpenOCD and GDB (plain GDB, Insight, or Eclipse),
|
|
I get lots of "Error: arm7_9_common.c:1771 arm7_9_read_memory():
|
|
memory read caused data abort".
|
|
|
|
The errors are non-fatal, and are the result of GDB trying to trace stack frames
|
|
beyond the last valid frame. It might be possible to prevent this by setting up
|
|
a proper "initial" stack frame, if you happen to know what exactly has to
|
|
be done, feel free to add this here.
|
|
|
|
@b{Simple:} In your startup code - push 8 registers of zeros onto the
|
|
stack before calling main(). What GDB is doing is ``climbing'' the run
|
|
time stack by reading various values on the stack using the standard
|
|
call frame for the target. GDB keeps going - until one of 2 things
|
|
happen @b{#1} an invalid frame is found, or @b{#2} some huge number of
|
|
stackframes have been processed. By pushing zeros on the stack, GDB
|
|
gracefully stops.
|
|
|
|
@b{Debugging Interrupt Service Routines} - In your ISR before you call
|
|
your C code, do the same - artifically push some zeros onto the stack,
|
|
remember to pop them off when the ISR is done.
|
|
|
|
@b{Also note:} If you have a multi-threaded operating system, they
|
|
often do not @b{in the intrest of saving memory} waste these few
|
|
bytes. Painful...
|
|
|
|
|
|
@item @b{JTAG Reset Config} I get the following message in the OpenOCD console (or log file):
|
|
"Warning: arm7_9_common.c:679 arm7_9_assert_reset(): srst resets test logic, too".
|
|
|
|
This warning doesn't indicate any serious problem, as long as you don't want to
|
|
debug your core right out of reset. Your .cfg file specified @option{jtag_reset
|
|
trst_and_srst srst_pulls_trst} to tell OpenOCD that either your board,
|
|
your debugger or your target uC (e.g. LPC2000) can't assert the two reset signals
|
|
independently. With this setup, it's not possible to halt the core right out of

@item @b{USB Power} When using OpenOCD in conjunction with Amontec JTAGkey and the Yagarto
|
|
toolchain (Eclipse, arm-elf-gcc, arm-elf-gdb), the debugging seems to be
|
|
unstable. When single-stepping over large blocks of code, GDB and OpenOCD
|
|
quit with an error message. Is there a stability issue with OpenOCD?
|
|
|
|
No, this is not a stability issue concerning OpenOCD. Most users have solved
|
|
this issue by simply using a self-powered USB hub, which they connect their
|
|
Amontec JTAGkey to. Apparently, some computers do not provide a USB power
|
|
supply stable enough for the Amontec JTAGkey to be operated.
|
|
|
|
@b{Laptops running on battery have this problem too...}
|
|
|
|
@item @b{USB Power} When using the Amontec JTAGkey, sometimes OpenOCD crashes with the
|
|
following error messages: "Error: ft2232.c:201 ft2232_read(): FT_Read returned:
|
|
4" and "Error: ft2232.c:365 ft2232_send_and_recv(): couldn't read from FT2232".
|
|
What does that mean and what might be the reason for this?
|
|
|
|
First of all, the reason might be the USB power supply. Try using a self-powered
|
|
hub instead of a direct connection to your computer. Secondly, the error code 4
|
|
corresponds to an FT_IO_ERROR, which means that the driver for the FTDI USB
|
|
chip ran into some sort of error - this points us to a USB problem.
|
|
|
|
@item @b{GDB Disconnects} When using the Amontec JTAGkey, sometimes OpenOCD crashes with the following
|
|
error message: "Error: gdb_server.c:101 gdb_get_char(): read: 10054".
|
|
What does that mean and what might be the reason for this?
|
|
|
|
Error code 10054 corresponds to WSAECONNRESET, which means that the debugger (GDB)
|
|
has closed the connection to OpenOCD. This might be a GDB issue.
|
|
|
|
@item @b{LPC2000 Flash} In the configuration file in the section where flash device configurations
|
|
are described, there is a parameter for specifying the clock frequency
|
|
for LPC2000 internal flash devices (e.g. @option{flash bank lpc2000
|
|
0x0 0x40000 0 0 0 lpc2000_v1 14746 calc_checksum}), which must be
|
|
specified in kilohertz. However, I do have a quartz crystal of a
|
|
frequency that contains fractions of kilohertz (e.g. 14,745,600 Hz,
|
|
i.e. 14,745.600 kHz). Is it possible to specify real numbers for the
|
|
clock frequency?
|
|
|
|
No. The clock frequency specified here must be given as an integral number.
|
|
However, this clock frequency is used by the In-Application-Programming (IAP)
|
|
routines of the LPC2000 family only, which seems to be very tolerant concerning
|
|
the given clock frequency, so a slight difference between the specified clock
|
|
frequency and the actual clock frequency will not cause any trouble.
|
|
|
|
@item @b{Command Order} Do I have to keep a specific order for the commands in the configuration file?
|
|
|
|
Well, yes and no. Commands can be given in arbitrary order, yet the
|
|
devices listed for the JTAG scan chain must be given in the right
|
|
order (jtag newdevice), with the device closest to the TDO-Pin being
|
|
listed first. In general, whenever objects of the same type exist
|
|
which require an index number, then these objects must be given in the
|
|
right order (jtag newtap, targets and flash banks - a target
|
|
references a jtag newtap and a flash bank references a target).
|
|
|
|
You can use the ``scan_chain'' command to verify and display the tap order.
|
|
|
|
Also, some commands can't execute until after @command{init} has been
|
|
processed. Such commands include @command{nand probe} and everything
|
|
else that needs to write to controller registers, perhaps for setting
|
|
up DRAM and loading it with code.
|
|
|
|
@item @b{JTAG Tap Order} JTAG tap order - command order
|
|
|
|
Many newer devices have multiple JTAG taps. For example: ST
|
|
Microsystems STM32 chips have two taps, a ``boundary scan tap'' and
|
|
``Cortex-M3'' tap. Example: The STM32 reference manual, Document ID:
|
|
RM0008, Section 26.5, Figure 259, page 651/681, the ``TDI'' pin is
|
|
connected to the boundary scan tap, which then connects to the
|
|
Cortex-M3 tap, which then connects to the TDO pin.
|
|
|
|
Thus, the proper order for the STM32 chip is: (1) The Cortex-M3, then
|
|
(2) The boundary scan tap. If your board includes an additional JTAG
|
|
chip in the scan chain (for example a Xilinx CPLD or FPGA) you could
|
|
place it before or after the STM32 chip in the chain. For example:
|
|
|
|
@itemize @bullet
|
|
@item OpenOCD_TDI(output) -> STM32 TDI Pin (BS Input)
|
|
@item STM32 BS TDO (output) -> STM32 Cortex-M3 TDI (input)
|
|
@item STM32 Cortex-M3 TDO (output) -> SM32 TDO Pin
|
|
@item STM32 TDO Pin (output) -> Xilinx TDI Pin (input)
|
|
@item Xilinx TDO Pin -> OpenOCD TDO (input)
|
|
@end itemize
|
|
|
|
The ``jtag device'' commands would thus be in the order shown below. Note:
|
|
|
|
@itemize @bullet
|
|
@item jtag newtap Xilinx tap -irlen ...
|
|
@item jtag newtap stm32 cpu -irlen ...
|
|
@item jtag newtap stm32 bs -irlen ...
|
|
@item # Create the debug target and say where it is
|
|
@item target create stm32.cpu -chain-position stm32.cpu ...
|
|
@end itemize
|
|
|
|
|
|
@item @b{SYSCOMP} Sometimes my debugging session terminates with an error. When I look into the
|
|
log file, I can see these error messages: Error: arm7_9_common.c:561
|
|
arm7_9_execute_sys_speed(): timeout waiting for SYSCOMP

@chapter Tcl Crash Course
|
|
@cindex Tcl
|
|
|
|
Not everyone knows Tcl - this is not intended to be a replacement for
|
|
learning Tcl, the intent of this chapter is to give you some idea of
|
|
how the Tcl scripts work.
|
|
|
|
This chapter is written with two audiences in mind. (1) OpenOCD users
|
|
who need to understand a bit more of how JIM-Tcl works so they can do
|
|
something useful, and (2) those that want to add a new command to
|
|
OpenOCD.
|
|
|
|
@section Tcl Rule #1
|
|
There is a famous joke, it goes like this:
|
|
@enumerate
|
|
@item Rule #1: The wife is always correct
|
|
@item Rule #2: If you think otherwise, See Rule #1
|
|
@end enumerate
|
|
|
|
The Tcl equal is this:
|
|
|
|
@enumerate
|
|
@item Rule #1: Everything is a string
|
|
@item Rule #2: If you think otherwise, See Rule #1
|
|
@end enumerate
|
|
|
|
As in the famous joke, the consequences of Rule #1 are profound. Once
|
|
you understand Rule #1, you will understand Tcl.
|
|
|
|
@section Tcl Rule #1b
|
|
There is a second pair of rules.
|
|
@enumerate
|
|
@item Rule #1: Control flow does not exist. Only commands
|
|
@* For example: the classic FOR loop or IF statement is not a control
|
|
flow item, they are commands, there is no such thing as control flow
|
|
in Tcl.
|
|
@item Rule #2: If you think otherwise, See Rule #1
|
|
@* Actually what happens is this: There are commands that by
|
|
convention, act like control flow key words in other languages. One of
|
|
those commands is the word ``for'', another command is ``if''.
|
|
@end enumerate
|
|
|
|
@section Per Rule #1 - All Results are strings
|
|
Every Tcl command results in a string. The word ``result'' is used
|
|
deliberatly. No result is just an empty string. Remember: @i{Rule #1 -
|
|
Everything is a string}
|
|
|
|
@section Tcl Quoting Operators
|
|
In life of a Tcl script, there are two important periods of time, the
|
|
difference is subtle.
|
|
@enumerate
|
|
@item Parse Time
|
|
@item Evaluation Time
|
|
@end enumerate
|
|
|
|
The two key items here are how ``quoted things'' work in Tcl. Tcl has
|
|
three primary quoting constructs, the [square-brackets] the
|
|
@{curly-braces@} and ``double-quotes''
|
|
|
|
By now you should know $VARIABLES always start with a $DOLLAR
|
|
sign. BTW: To set a variable, you actually use the command ``set'', as
|
|
in ``set VARNAME VALUE'' much like the ancient BASIC langauge ``let x
|
|
= 1'' statement, but without the equal sign.
|
|
|
|
@itemize @bullet
|
|
@item @b{[square-brackets]}
|
|
@* @b{[square-brackets]} are command substitutions. It operates much
|
|
like Unix Shell `back-ticks`. The result of a [square-bracket]
|
|
operation is exactly 1 string. @i{Remember Rule #1 - Everything is a
|
|
string}. These two statements are roughly identical:
|
|
@example
|
|
# bash example
|
|
X=`date`
|
|
echo "The Date is: $X"
|
|
# Tcl example
|
|
set X [date]
|
|
puts "The Date is: $X"
|
|
@end example
|
|
@item @b{``double-quoted-things''}
|
|
@* @b{``double-quoted-things''} are just simply quoted
|
|
text. $VARIABLES and [square-brackets] are expanded in place - the
|
|
result however is exactly 1 string. @i{Remember Rule #1 - Everything
|
|
is a string}
|
|
@example
|
|
set x "Dinner"
|
|
puts "It is now \"[date]\", $x is in 1 hour"
|
|
@end example
|
|
@item @b{@{Curly-Braces@}}
|
|
@*@b{@{Curly-Braces@}} are magic: $VARIABLES and [square-brackets] are
|
|
parsed, but are NOT expanded or executed. @{Curly-Braces@} are like
|
|
'single-quote' operators in BASH shell scripts, with the added
|
|
feature: @{curly-braces@} can be nested, single quotes can not. @{@{@{this is
|
|
nested 3 times@}@}@} NOTE: [date] is perhaps a bad example, as of
|
|
28/nov/2008, Jim/OpenOCD does not have a date command.
|
|
@end itemize
|
|
|
|
@section Consequences of Rule 1/2/3/4
|
|
|
|
The consequences of Rule 1 are profound.
|
|
|
|
@subsection Tokenisation & Execution.
|
|
|
|
Of course, whitespace, blank lines and #comment lines are handled in
|
|
the normal way.
|
|
|
|
As a script is parsed, each (multi) line in the script file is
|
|
tokenised and according to the quoting rules. After tokenisation, that
|
|
line is immedatly executed.
|
|
|
|
Multi line statements end with one or more ``still-open''
|
|
@{curly-braces@} which - eventually - closes a few lines later.
|
|
|
|
@subsection Command Execution
|
|
|
|
Remember earlier: There are no ``control flow''
|
|
statements in Tcl. Instead there are COMMANDS that simply act like
|
|
control flow operators.
|
|
|
|
Commands are executed like this:
|
|
|
|
@enumerate
|
|
@item Parse the next line into (argc) and (argv[]).
|
|
@item Look up (argv[0]) in a table and call its function.
|
|
@item Repeat until End Of File.
|
|
@end enumerate
|
|
|
|
It sort of works like this:
|
|
@example
|
|
for(;;)@{
|
|
ReadAndParse( &argc, &argv );
|
|
|
|
cmdPtr = LookupCommand( argv[0] );
|
|
|
|
(*cmdPtr->Execute)( argc, argv );
|
|
@}
|
|
@end example
|
|
|
|
When the command ``proc'' is parsed (which creates a procedure
|
|
function) it gets 3 parameters on the command line. @b{1} the name of
|
|
the proc (function), @b{2} the list of parameters, and @b{3} the body
|
|
of the function. Not the choice of words: LIST and BODY. The PROC
|
|
command stores these items in a table somewhere so it can be found by
|
|
``LookupCommand()''
|
|
|
|
@subsection The FOR command
|
|
|
|
The most interesting command to look at is the FOR command. In Tcl,
|
|
the FOR command is normally implemented in C. Remember, FOR is a
|
|
command just like any other command.
|
|
|
|
When the ascii text containing the FOR command is parsed, the parser
|
|
produces 5 parameter strings, @i{(If in doubt: Refer to Rule #1)} they
|
|
are:
|
|
|
|
@enumerate 0
|
|
@item The ascii text 'for'
|
|
@item The start text
|
|
@item The test expression
|
|
@item The next text
|
|
@item The body text
|
|
@end enumerate
|
|
|
|
Sort of reminds you of ``main( int argc, char **argv )'' does it not?
|
|
Remember @i{Rule #1 - Everything is a string.} The key point is this:
|
|
Often many of those parameters are in @{curly-braces@} - thus the
|
|
variables inside are not expanded or replaced until later.
|
|
|
|
Remember that every Tcl command looks like the classic ``main( argc,
|
|
argv )'' function in C. In JimTCL - they actually look like this:
|
|
|
|
@example
|
|
int
|
|
MyCommand( Jim_Interp *interp,
|
|
int *argc,
|
|
Jim_Obj * const *argvs );
|
|
@end example
|
|
|
|
Real Tcl is nearly identical. Although the newer versions have
|
|
introduced a byte-code parser and intepreter, but at the core, it
|
|
still operates in the same basic way.
|
|
|
|
@subsection FOR command implementation
|
|
|
|
To understand Tcl it is perhaps most helpful to see the FOR
|
|
command. Remember, it is a COMMAND not a control flow structure.
|
|
|
|
In Tcl there are two underlying C helper functions.
|
|
|
|
Remember Rule #1 - You are a string.
|
|
|
|
The @b{first} helper parses and executes commands found in an ascii
|
|
string. Commands can be seperated by semicolons, or newlines. While
|
|
parsing, variables are expanded via the quoting rules.
|
|
|
|
The @b{second} helper evaluates an ascii string as a numerical
|
|
expression and returns a value.
|
|
|
|
Here is an example of how the @b{FOR} command could be
|
|
implemented. The pseudo code below does not show error handling.
|
|
@example
|
|
void Execute_AsciiString( void *interp, const char *string );
|
|
|
|
int Evaluate_AsciiExpression( void *interp, const char *string );
|
|
|
|
int
|
|
MyForCommand( void *interp,
|
|
int argc,
|
|
char **argv )
|
|
@{
|
|
if( argc != 5 )@{
|
|
SetResult( interp, "WRONG number of parameters");
|
|
return ERROR;
|
|
@}
|
|
|
|
// argv[0] = the ascii string just like C
|
|
|
|
// Execute the start statement.
|
|
Execute_AsciiString( interp, argv[1] );
|
|
|
|
// Top of loop test
|
|
for(;;)@{
|
|
i = Evaluate_AsciiExpression(interp, argv[2]);
|
|
if( i == 0 )
|
|
break;
|
|
|
|
// Execute the body
|
|
Execute_AsciiString( interp, argv[3] );
|
|
|
|
// Execute the LOOP part
|
|
Execute_AsciiString( interp, argv[4] );
|
|
@}
|
|
|
|
// Return no error
|
|
SetResult( interp, "" );
|
|
return SUCCESS;
|
|
@}
|
|
@end example
|
|
|
|
Every other command IF, WHILE, FORMAT, PUTS, EXPR, everything works
|
|
in the same basic way.
|
|
|
|
@section OpenOCD Tcl Usage
|
|
|
|
@subsection source and find commands
|
|
@b{Where:} In many configuration files
|
|
@* Example: @b{ source [find FILENAME] }
|
|
@*Remember the parsing rules
|
|
@enumerate
|
|
@item The FIND command is in square brackets.
|
|
@* The FIND command is executed with the parameter FILENAME. It should
|
|
find the full path to the named file. The RESULT is a string, which is
|
|
substituted on the orginal command line.
|
|
@item The command source is executed with the resulting filename.
|
|
@* SOURCE reads a file and executes as a script.
|
|
@end enumerate
|
|
@subsection format command
|
|
@b{Where:} Generally occurs in numerous places.
|
|
@* Tcl has no command like @b{printf()}, instead it has @b{format}, which is really more like
|
|
@b{sprintf()}.
|
|
@b{Example}
|
|
@example
|
|
set x 6
|
|
set y 7
|
|
puts [format "The answer: %d" [expr $x * $y]]
|
|
@end example
|
|
@enumerate
|
|
@item The SET command creates 2 variables, X and Y.
|
|
@item The double [nested] EXPR command performs math
|
|
@* The EXPR command produces numerical result as a string.
|
|
@* Refer to Rule #1
|
|
@item The format command is executed, producing a single string
|
|
@* Refer to Rule #1.
|
|
@item The PUTS command outputs the text.
|
|
@end enumerate
|
|
@subsection Body or Inlined Text
|
|
@b{Where:} Various TARGET scripts.
|
|
@example
|
|
#1 Good
|
|
proc someproc @{@} @{
|
|
... multiple lines of stuff ...
|
|
@}
|
|
$_TARGETNAME configure -event FOO someproc
|
|
#2 Good - no variables
|
|
$_TARGETNAME confgure -event foo "this ; that;"
|
|
#3 Good Curly Braces
|
|
$_TARGETNAME configure -event FOO @{
|
|
puts "Time: [date]"
|
|
@}
|
|
#4 DANGER DANGER DANGER
|
|
$_TARGETNAME configure -event foo "puts \"Time: [date]\""
|
|
@end example
|
|
@enumerate
|
|
@item The $_TARGETNAME is an OpenOCD variable convention.
|
|
@*@b{$_TARGETNAME} represents the last target created, the value changes
|
|
each time a new target is created. Remember the parsing rules. When
|
|
the ascii text is parsed, the @b{$_TARGETNAME} becomes a simple string,
|
|
the name of the target which happens to be a TARGET (object)
|
|
command.
|
|
@item The 2nd parameter to the @option{-event} parameter is a TCBODY
|
|
@*There are 4 examples:
|
|
@enumerate
|
|
@item The TCLBODY is a simple string that happens to be a proc name
|
|
@item The TCLBODY is several simple commands seperated by semicolons
|
|
@item The TCLBODY is a multi-line @{curly-brace@} quoted string
|
|
@item The TCLBODY is a string with variables that get expanded.
|
|
@end enumerate
|
|
|
|
In the end, when the target event FOO occurs the TCLBODY is
|
|
evaluated. Method @b{#1} and @b{#2} are functionally identical. For
|
|
Method @b{#3} and @b{#4} it is more interesting. What is the TCLBODY?
|
|
|
|
Remember the parsing rules. In case #3, @{curly-braces@} mean the
|
|
$VARS and [square-brackets] are expanded later, when the EVENT occurs,
|
|
and the text is evaluated. In case #4, they are replaced before the
|
|
``Target Object Command'' is executed. This occurs at the same time
|
|
$_TARGETNAME is replaced. In case #4 the date will never
|
|
change. @{BTW: [date] is perhaps a bad example, as of 28/nov/2008,
|
|
Jim/OpenOCD does not have a date command@}
|
|
@end enumerate
|
|
@subsection Global Variables
|
|
@b{Where:} You might discover this when writing your own procs @* In
|
|
simple terms: Inside a PROC, if you need to access a global variable
|
|
you must say so. See also ``upvar''. Example:
|
|
@example
|
|
proc myproc @{ @} @{
|
|
set y 0 #Local variable Y
|
|
global x #Global variable X
|
|
puts [format "X=%d, Y=%d" $x $y]
|
|
@}
|
|
@end example
|
|
@section Other Tcl Hacks
|
|
@b{Dynamic variable creation}
|
|
@example
|
|
# Dynamically create a bunch of variables.
|
|
for @{ set x 0 @} @{ $x < 32 @} @{ set x [expr $x + 1]@} @{
|
|
# Create var name
|
|
set vn [format "BIT%d" $x]

@chapter Target Library
|
|
@cindex Target Library
|
|
|
|
OpenOCD comes with a target configuration script library. These scripts can be
|
|
used as-is or serve as a starting point.
|
|
|
|
The target library is published together with the OpenOCD executable and
|
|
the path to the target library is in the OpenOCD script search path.
|
|
Similarly there are example scripts for configuring the JTAG interface.
|
|
|
|
The command line below uses the example parport configuration script
|
|
that ship with OpenOCD, then configures the str710.cfg target and
|
|
finally issues the init and reset commands. The communication speed
|
|
is set to 10kHz for reset and 8MHz for post reset.
|
|
|
|
@example
|
|
openocd -f interface/parport.cfg -f target/str710.cfg \
|
|
-c "init" -c "reset"
|
|
@end example
|
|
|
|
To list the target scripts available:
|
|
|
|
@example
|
|
$ ls /usr/local/lib/openocd/target
|
|
|
|
arm7_fast.cfg lm3s6965.cfg pxa255.cfg stm32.cfg xba_revA3.cfg
