Committed: openocd.texi is the authortative source of OpenOCD documentation Index: C:/workspace/openocd/README =================================================================== --- C:/workspace/openocd/README (revision 988) +++ C:/workspace/openocd/README (working copy) @@ -1,171 +1 @@ - OpenOCD - - Free and Open On-Chip Debugging, In-System Programming - and Boundary-Scan Testing - Copyright (c) 2004-2007 Dominic Rath - -The debugger uses an IEEE 1149-1 compliant JTAG TAP bus master to access on-chip -debug functionality available on ARM7 and ARM9 based microcontrollers / -system-on-chip solutions. - -User interaction is realized through a telnet command line interface and a gdb -(The GNU Debugger) remote protocol server. - -1. JTAG hardware - -Currently, OpenOCD supports the following JTAG interfaces: - -- Parallel port wigglers. These devices connect to a PC's parallel port, -providing direct access to the JTAG lines. The OpenOCD contains descriptions -of a few Wiggler layouts, including the original 'Wiggler' design. Other -layouts (i.e. mapping of parallel port pins to JTAG lines) can be added easily. -Typical Wiggler speeds are around 12kByte/s code download to an ARM7's RAM. - -The list of supported parallel port devices includes: - - * Macraigor Wiggler JTAG cable - * Gateworks GW16012 JTAG programmer - * Xilinx DLC5 JTAG parallel cable III - * Ka-Ro TRITON starterkit II JTAG cable - * Lattice parallel port JTAG cable - * ST FlashLINK programming cable - * Wiggler 2 cable (basically a wiggler with an LED) - -- The Amontec JTAG Accelerator. This is a configuration for Amontec's Chameleon -dongle, a parallel port interface based on a Xilinx CoolRunner CPLD. It uses -the IEEE1284 EPP parallel port specification, providing many times the -performance achievable with wiggler-style devices. Additional information is -available on www.amontec.com. -Typical JTAG Accelerator speeds are around 120-160kByte/s to an ARM7's RAM. - -- FTDI FT2232 based USB devices. The FT2232 (but not FT232 or FT245) features a -multi-protocol synchronous serial engine (MPSSE) that can be used to run the -serial JTAG protocol. There are several implemenations of FT2232 based devices: - -* USBJTAG: http://www.fh-augsburg.de/~hhoegl/proj/usbjtag/usbjtag.html -The USBJTAG was designed by Prof. Hubert Hoegl to provide a high-speed USB -interface for use with the OpenOCD. Schematics are available at the USBJTAG -website, and a homebrew device can easily be built using the FTDI evaluation -module DLP2232M. - -* OOCD-Link: http://www.joernonline.de/dw/doku.php?id=en:projects:oocdlink -Similar to the USBJTAG, this design comes with free schematics, too. - -* Amontec JTAGkey: www.amontec.com -The Amontec JTAGkey offers support for a wide variety of target voltages from -1.4V to 5V. It also allows the JTAG lines and reset signals to be tri-stated, -allowing easy interfacing with a wide variety of targets. - -* Amontec JTAGkey-Tiny: www.amontec.com -The Amontec JTAGkey offers support for a wide variety of target voltages from -2.8V to 5V. It also allows the reset signals to be tri-stated, allowing easy -interfacing with a wide variety of targets. - -* Olimex ARM-USB-OCD: www.olimex.com -The Olimex ARM-USB-OCD offers support for a wide vriety of target voltages from -2.0V to 5V. It also allows targets to be powered from the ARM-USB-OCD and -features and additional RS232 UART. - -* eVerve Signalyzer: www.signalyzer.com -The Signalyzer offers support for a wide variety of target voltages from 1.2V to -5.5V. A second connector provides access to a TTL level UART. - -* TinCanTools 'Flyswatter' USB JTAG programmer. - -* Turtelizer 2: http://www.ethernut.de/en/hardware/turtelizer/index.html -Another USB JTAG programmer, with freely available schematics. It supports -target voltages from 1.65V to 5.5V. - -* Hitex STR9-comStick: http://www.ehitex.de/p_info.php?products_id=292 -A STR912FW44x microcontroller "board" with USB and JTAG functionality. - -* Hitex STM32-PerformanceStick: http://www.hitex.com/stm32-stick/ -A STM32F103RBT6 microcontroller "board" with USB and JTAG functionality. - -* Luminary Micro development board evb_lm3s811 JTAG interface. - -* ASIX PRESTO: http://www.asix-tools.com/prg_presto.htm -The ASIX PRESTO is a USB JTAG programmer for a wide range of components, e.g. -microcontrollers, serial EEPROM and Flash memory chips, CPLDs and others. - -* usbprog: http://www.embedded-projects.net/index.php?page_id=165 -The usbprog is a freely programmable USB adapter, which can (among other -things) use a firmware which turns it into a JTAG programmer/debugger. - -* Altium universal JTAG cable - -All FT2232 based devices may be accessed using either FTDI's proprietary FTD2XX -library (www.ftdichip.com) or using an open-source replacement from -http://www.intra2net.com/de/produkte/opensource/ftdi/index.php, also included -with many Linux distributions. - -2. Supported cores - -This version of openocd supports the following ARM7/9 cores: - -- ARM7TDMI(-s) -- ARM9TDMI -- ARM920t -- ARM922t -- ARM926ej-s -- ARM966e -- Cortex-M3 - -Support for Intel XScale CPUs is also included: - -- PXA25x -- PXA27x -- IXP42x - -And support for the Marvell Feroceon CPU core as found in the -Orion SoC family is included as well. - -3. Host platforms - -OpenOCD was originally developed on x86-Linux, but has since then been ported -to run on Windows/Cygwin, native Windows with MinGW, FreeBSD, IA64-Linux, -AMD64-Linux, Alpha-Linux, ARM-Linux, and PowerPC OS-X. - -4. Documentation - -Documentation for the OpenOCD is hosted in the Berlios OpenFacts Wiki at -http://openfacts.berlios.de/index-en.phtml?title=Open_On-Chip_Debugger. - -There is also and openocd(1) manpage, the 'openocd --help' output and -an OpenOCD info page (type 'info openocd'). - -5. Coding Style - -The following rules try to describe formatting and naming conventions that -should be followed to make the whole OpenOCD code look more consistent. -The ultimate goal of coding style should be readability, and these rules may -be ignored for a particular (small) piece of code if that makes it more -readable. - -Formatting rules: -- remove any trailing white space -- use TAB characters for indentation, not spaces -- displayed TAB width is 4 characters -- make sure NOT to use DOS '\r\n' line feeds -- do not add more than 2 empty lines to source files -- do not add trailing empty lines to source files -- do not use C++ style comments (//) -- lines may be reasonably wide - there's no anachronistic 80 characters limit - -Naming rules: -- identifiers use lower-case letters only -- identifiers consisting of multiple words use underline characters between -consecutive words -- macros use upper-case letters only -- structure names shall be appended with '_s' -- typedefs shall be appended with '_t' - -Function calls: -- function calls have no space between the functions name and the parameter -list: my_func(param1, param2, ...) - -6. Licensing - -OpenOCD is licensed under the terms of the GNU General Public License, see the -file COPYING for details. - +openocd.texi is the authortative source of OpenOCD documentation -- Øyvind Harboe http://www.zylin.com/zy1000.html ARM7 ARM9 XScale Cortex JTAG debugger and flash programmer |
