  85. @cindex about
  86. OpenOCD was created by Dominic Rath as part of a diploma thesis written at the
  87. University of Applied Sciences Augsburg (@uref{http://www.fh-augsburg.de}).
  88. Since that time, the project has grown into an active open-source project,
  89. supported by a diverse community of software and hardware developers from
  90. around the world.
  91. @section What is OpenOCD?
  92. @cindex TAP
  93. @cindex JTAG
  94. The Open On-Chip Debugger (OpenOCD) aims to provide debugging,
  95. in-system programming and boundary-scan testing for embedded target
  96. devices.
  97. It does so with the assistance of a @dfn{debug adapter}, which is
  98. a small hardware module which helps provide the right kind of
  99. electrical signaling to the target being debugged. These are
  100. required since the debug host (on which OpenOCD runs) won't
  101. usually have native support for such signaling, or the connector
  102. needed to hook up to the target.
  103. Such debug adapters support one or more @dfn{transport} protocols,
  104. each of which involves different electrical signaling (and uses
  105. different messaging protocols on top of that signaling). There
  106. are many types of debug adapter, and little uniformity in what
  107. they are called. (There are also product naming differences.)
  108. These adapters are sometimes packaged as discrete dongles, which
  109. may generically be called @dfn{hardware interface dongles}.
  110. Some development boards also integrate them directly, which may
  111. let the development board can be directly connected to the debug
  112. host over USB (and sometimes also to power it over USB).
  113. For example, a @dfn{JTAG Adapter} supports JTAG
  114. signaling, and is used to communicate
  115. with JTAG (IEEE 1149.1) compliant TAPs on your target board.
  116. A @dfn{TAP} is a ``Test Access Port'', a module which processes
  117. special instructions and data. TAPs are daisy-chained within and
  118. between chips and boards. JTAG supports debugging and boundary
  119. scan operations.
  120. There are also @dfn{SWD Adapters} that support Serial Wire Debug (SWD)
  121. signaling to communicate with some newer ARM cores, as well as debug
  122. adapters which support both JTAG and SWD transports. SWD only supports
  123. debugging, whereas JTAG also supports boundary scan operations.
  124. For some chips, there are also @dfn{Programming Adapters} supporting
  125. special transports used only to write code to flash memory, without
  126. support for on-chip debugging or boundary scan.
  127. (At this writing, OpenOCD does not support such non-debug adapters.)
  128. @b{Dongles:} OpenOCD currently supports many types of hardware dongles: USB
  129. based, parallel port based, and other standalone boxes that run
  130. OpenOCD internally. @xref{Debug Adapter Hardware}.
  131. @b{GDB Debug:} It allows ARM7 (ARM7TDMI and ARM720t), ARM9 (ARM920T,
  132. ARM922T, ARM926EJ--S, ARM966E--S), XScale (PXA25x, IXP42x) and
  133. Cortex-M3 (Stellaris LM3 and ST STM32) based cores to be
  134. debugged via the GDB protocol.
  135. @b{Flash Programing:} Flash writing is supported for external CFI
  136. compatible NOR flashes (Intel and AMD/Spansion command set) and several
  137. internal flashes (LPC1700, LPC2000, AT91SAM7, AT91SAM3U, STR7x, STR9x, LM3, and
  138. STM32x). Preliminary support for various NAND flash controllers
  139. (LPC3180, Orion, S3C24xx, more) controller is included.
  140. @section OpenOCD Web Site
  141. The OpenOCD web site provides the latest public news from the community:
  142. @uref{http://openocd.berlios.de/web/}
  143. @section Latest User's Guide:
  144. The user's guide you are now reading may not be the latest one
  145. available. A version for more recent code may be available.
  146. Its HTML form is published irregularly at:
  147. @uref{http://openocd.berlios.de/doc/html/index.html}
  148. PDF form is likewise published at:
  149. @uref{http://openocd.berlios.de/doc/pdf/openocd.pdf}
  150. @section OpenOCD User's Forum
  151. There is an OpenOCD forum (phpBB) hosted by SparkFun,
  152. which might be helpful to you. Note that if you want
  153. anything to come to the attention of developers, you
  154. should post it to the OpenOCD Developer Mailing List
  155. instead of this forum.
  156. @uref{http://forum.sparkfun.com/viewforum.php?f=18}
  157. @node Developers
  158. @chapter OpenOCD Developer Resources
  159. @cindex developers
  160. If you are interested in improving the state of OpenOCD's debugging and
  161. testing support, new contributions will be welcome. Motivated developers
  162. can produce new target, flash or interface drivers, improve the
  163. documentation, as well as more conventional bug fixes and enhancements.
  164. The resources in this chapter are available for developers wishing to explore
  165. or expand the OpenOCD source code.
  166. @section OpenOCD GIT Repository
  167. During the 0.3.x release cycle, OpenOCD switched from Subversion to
  168. a GIT repository hosted at SourceForge. The repository URL is:
  169. @uref{git://openocd.git.sourceforge.net/gitroot/openocd/openocd}
  170. You may prefer to use a mirror and the HTTP protocol:
  171. @uref{http://repo.or.cz/r/openocd.git}
  172. With standard GIT tools, use @command{git clone} to initialize
  173. a local repository, and @command{git pull} to update it.
  174. There are also gitweb pages letting you browse the repository
  175. with a web browser, or download arbitrary snapshots without
  176. needing a GIT client:
  177. @uref{http://openocd.git.sourceforge.net/git/gitweb.cgi?p=openocd/openocd}
  178. @uref{http://repo.or.cz/w/openocd.git}
  179. The @file{README} file contains the instructions for building the project
  180. from the repository or a snapshot.
  181. Developers that want to contribute patches to the OpenOCD system are
  182. @b{strongly} encouraged to work against mainline.
  183. Patches created against older versions may require additional
  184. work from their submitter in order to be updated for newer releases.
  185. @section Doxygen Developer Manual
  186. During the 0.2.x release cycle, the OpenOCD project began
  187. providing a Doxygen reference manual. This document contains more
  188. technical information about the software internals, development
  189. processes, and similar documentation:
  190. @uref{http://openocd.berlios.de/doc/doxygen/index.html}
  191. This document is a work-in-progress, but contributions would be welcome
  192. to fill in the gaps. All of the source files are provided in-tree,
  193. listed in the Doxyfile configuration in the top of the source tree.
  194. @section OpenOCD Developer Mailing List
  195. The OpenOCD Developer Mailing List provides the primary means of
  196. communication between developers:
  197. @uref{https://lists.berlios.de/mailman/listinfo/openocd-development}
  198. Discuss and submit patches to this list.
  199. The @file{PATCHES.txt} file contains basic information about how
  200. to prepare patches.
  201. @section OpenOCD Bug Database
  202. During the 0.4.x release cycle the OpenOCD project team began
  203. using Trac for its bug database:
  204. @uref{https://sourceforge.net/apps/trac/openocd}

  212. @cindex USB Adapter
  213. @cindex RTCK
  214. Defined: @b{dongle}: A small device that plugins into a computer and serves as
  215. an adapter .... [snip]
  216. In the OpenOCD case, this generally refers to @b{a small adapter} that
  217. attaches to your computer via USB or the Parallel Printer Port. One
  218. exception is the Zylin ZY1000, packaged as a small box you attach via
  219. an ethernet cable. The Zylin ZY1000 has the advantage that it does not
  220. require any drivers to be installed on the developer PC. It also has
  221. a built in web interface. It supports RTCK/RCLK or adaptive clocking
  222. and has a built in relay to power cycle targets remotely.
  223. @section Choosing a Dongle
  224. There are several things you should keep in mind when choosing a dongle.
  225. @enumerate
  226. @item @b{Transport} Does it support the kind of communication that you need?
  227. OpenOCD focusses mostly on JTAG. Your version may also support
  228. other ways to communicate with target devices.
  229. @item @b{Voltage} What voltage is your target - 1.8, 2.8, 3.3, or 5V?
  230. Does your dongle support it? You might need a level converter.
  231. @item @b{Pinout} What pinout does your target board use?
  232. Does your dongle support it? You may be able to use jumper
  233. wires, or an "octopus" connector, to convert pinouts.
  234. @item @b{Connection} Does your computer have the USB, printer, or
  235. Ethernet port needed?
  236. @item @b{RTCK} Do you expect to use it with ARM chips and boards with
  237. RTCK support? Also known as ``adaptive clocking''
  238. @end enumerate
  239. @section Stand alone Systems
  240. @b{ZY1000} See: @url{http://www.zylin.com/zy1000.html} Technically, not a
  241. dongle, but a standalone box. The ZY1000 has the advantage that it does
  242. not require any drivers installed on the developer PC. It also has
  243. a built in web interface. It supports RTCK/RCLK or adaptive clocking
  244. and has a built in relay to power cycle targets remotely.
  245. @section USB FT2232 Based
  246. There are many USB JTAG dongles on the market, many of them are based
  247. on a chip from ``Future Technology Devices International'' (FTDI)
  248. known as the FTDI FT2232; this is a USB full speed (12 Mbps) chip.
  249. See: @url{http://www.ftdichip.com} for more information.
  250. In summer 2009, USB high speed (480 Mbps) versions of these FTDI
  251. chips are starting to become available in JTAG adapters. (Adapters
  252. using those high speed FT2232H chips may support adaptive clocking.)
  253. The FT2232 chips are flexible enough to support some other
  254. transport options, such as SWD or the SPI variants used to
  255. program some chips. They have two communications channels,
  256. and one can be used for a UART adapter at the same time the
  257. other one is used to provide a debug adapter.
  258. Also, some development boards integrate an FT2232 chip to serve as
  259. a built-in low cost debug adapter and usb-to-serial solution.

  398. OpenOCD uses a small ``Tcl Interpreter'' known as Jim-Tcl.
  399. This programming language provides a simple and extensible
  400. command interpreter.
  401. All commands presented in this Guide are extensions to Jim-Tcl.
  402. You can use them as simple commands, without needing to learn
  403. much of anything about Tcl.
  404. Alternatively, can write Tcl programs with them.
  405. You can learn more about Jim at its website, @url{http://jim.berlios.de}.
  406. There is an active and responsive community, get on the mailing list
  407. if you have any questions. Jim-Tcl maintainers also lurk on the
  408. OpenOCD mailing list.
  409. @itemize @bullet
  410. @item @b{Jim vs. Tcl}
  411. @* Jim-Tcl is a stripped down version of the well known Tcl language,
  412. which can be found here: @url{http://www.tcl.tk}. Jim-Tcl has far
  413. fewer features. Jim-Tcl is several dozens of .C files and .H files and
  414. implements the basic Tcl command set. In contrast: Tcl 8.6 is a
  415. 4.2 MB .zip file containing 1540 files.
  416. @item @b{Missing Features}
  417. @* Our practice has been: Add/clone the real Tcl feature if/when
  418. needed. We welcome Jim-Tcl improvements, not bloat. Also there
  419. are a large number of optional Jim-Tcl features that are not
  420. enabled in OpenOCD.
  421. @item @b{Scripts}
  422. @* OpenOCD configuration scripts are Jim-Tcl Scripts. OpenOCD's
  423. command interpreter today is a mixture of (newer)
  424. Jim-Tcl commands, and (older) the orginal command interpreter.
  425. @item @b{Commands}
  426. @* At the OpenOCD telnet command line (or via the GDB monitor command) one
  427. can type a Tcl for() loop, set variables, etc.
  428. Some of the commands documented in this guide are implemented
  429. as Tcl scripts, from a @file{startup.tcl} file internal to the server.
  430. @item @b{Historical Note}
  431. @* Jim-Tcl was introduced to OpenOCD in spring 2008. Fall 2010,
  432. before OpenOCD 0.5 release OpenOCD switched to using Jim Tcl
  433. as a git submodule, which greatly simplified upgrading Jim Tcl
  434. to benefit from new features and bugfixes in Jim Tcl.

  443. Properly installing OpenOCD sets up your operating system to grant it access
  444. to the debug adapters. On Linux, this usually involves installing a file
  445. in @file{/etc/udev/rules.d,} so OpenOCD has permissions. MS-Windows needs
  446. complex and confusing driver configuration for every peripheral. Such issues
  447. are unique to each operating system, and are not detailed in this User's Guide.
  448. Then later you will invoke the OpenOCD server, with various options to
  449. tell it how each debug session should work.
  450. The @option{--help} option shows:
  451. @verbatim
  452. bash$ openocd --help
  453. --help | -h display this help
  454. --version | -v display OpenOCD version
  455. --file | -f use configuration file <name>
  456. --search | -s dir to search for config files and scripts
  457. --debug | -d set debug level <0-3>
  458. --log_output | -l redirect log output to file <name>
  459. --command | -c run <command>
  460. @end verbatim
  461. If you don't give any @option{-f} or @option{-c} options,
  462. OpenOCD tries to read the configuration file @file{openocd.cfg}.
  463. To specify one or more different
  464. configuration files, use @option{-f} options. For example:
  465. @example
  466. openocd -f config1.cfg -f config2.cfg -f config3.cfg
  467. @end example
  468. Configuration files and scripts are searched for in
  469. @enumerate
  470. @item the current directory,
  471. @item any search dir specified on the command line using the @option{-s} option,
  472. @item any search dir specified using the @command{add_script_search_dir} command,
  473. @item @file{$HOME/.openocd} (not on Windows),
  474. @item the site wide script library @file{$pkgdatadir/site} and
  475. @item the OpenOCD-supplied script library @file{$pkgdatadir/scripts}.
  476. @end enumerate
  477. The first found file with a matching file name will be used.
  478. @quotation Note
  479. Don't try to use configuration script names or paths which
  480. include the "#" character. That character begins Tcl comments.
  481. @end quotation
  482. @section Simple setup, no customization
  483. In the best case, you can use two scripts from one of the script
  484. libraries, hook up your JTAG adapter, and start the server ... and
  485. your JTAG setup will just work "out of the box". Always try to
  486. start by reusing those scripts, but assume you'll need more
  487. customization even if this works. @xref{OpenOCD Project Setup}.
  488. If you find a script for your JTAG adapter, and for your board or
  489. target, you may be able to hook up your JTAG adapter then start
  490. the server like:
  491. @example
  492. openocd -f interface/ADAPTER.cfg -f board/MYBOARD.cfg
  493. @end example
  494. You might also need to configure which reset signals are present,
  495. using @option{-c 'reset_config trst_and_srst'} or something similar.
  496. If all goes well you'll see output something like
  497. @example
  498. Open On-Chip Debugger 0.4.0 (2010-01-14-15:06)
  499. For bug reports, read
  500. http://openocd.berlios.de/doc/doxygen/bugs.html
  501. Info : JTAG tap: lm3s.cpu tap/device found: 0x3ba00477
  502. (mfg: 0x23b, part: 0xba00, ver: 0x3)
  503. @end example
  504. Seeing that "tap/device found" message, and no warnings, means
  505. the JTAG communication is working. That's a key milestone, but
  506. you'll probably need more project-specific setup.
  507. @section What OpenOCD does as it starts
  508. OpenOCD starts by processing the configuration commands provided
  509. on the command line or, if there were no @option{-c command} or
  510. @option{-f file.cfg} options given, in @file{openocd.cfg}.
  511. @xref{Configuration Stage}.
  512. At the end of the configuration stage it verifies the JTAG scan
  513. chain defined using those commands; your configuration should
  514. ensure that this always succeeds.
  515. Normally, OpenOCD then starts running as a daemon.
  516. Alternatively, commands may be used to terminate the configuration
  517. stage early, perform work (such as updating some flash memory),
  518. and then shut down without acting as a daemon.
  519. Once OpenOCD starts running as a daemon, it waits for connections from
  520. clients (Telnet, GDB, Other) and processes the commands issued through
  521. those channels.
  522. If you are having problems, you can enable internal debug messages via
  523. the @option{-d} option.
  524. Also it is possible to interleave Jim-Tcl commands w/config scripts using the
  525. @option{-c} command line switch.
  526. To enable debug output (when reporting problems or working on OpenOCD
  527. itself), use the @option{-d} command line switch. This sets the
  528. @option{debug_level} to "3", outputting the most information,
  529. including debug messages. The default setting is "2", outputting only
  530. informational messages, warnings and errors. You can also change this
  531. setting from within a telnet or gdb session using @command{debug_level
  532. <n>} (@pxref{debug_level}).
  533. You can redirect all output from the daemon to a file using the
  534. @option{-l <logfile>} switch.
  535. Note! OpenOCD will launch the GDB & telnet server even if it can not
  536. establish a connection with the target. In general, it is possible for
  537. the JTAG controller to be unresponsive until the target is set up
  538. correctly via e.g. GDB monitor commands in a GDB init script.
  539. @node OpenOCD Project Setup
  540. @chapter OpenOCD Project Setup
  541. To use OpenOCD with your development projects, you need to do more than
  542. just connecting the JTAG adapter hardware (dongle) to your development board
  543. and then starting the OpenOCD server.
  544. You also need to configure that server so that it knows
  545. about that adapter and board, and helps your work.
  546. You may also want to connect OpenOCD to GDB, possibly
  547. using Eclipse or some other GUI.
  548. @section Hooking up the JTAG Adapter
  549. Today's most common case is a dongle with a JTAG cable on one side
  550. (such as a ribbon cable with a 10-pin or 20-pin IDC connector)
  551. and a USB cable on the other.
  552. Instead of USB, some cables use Ethernet;
  553. older ones may use a PC parallel port, or even a serial port.
  554. @enumerate
  555. @item @emph{Start with power to your target board turned off},
  556. and nothing connected to your JTAG adapter.
  557. If you're particularly paranoid, unplug power to the board.
  558. It's important to have the ground signal properly set up,
  559. unless you are using a JTAG adapter which provides
  560. galvanic isolation between the target board and the
  561. debugging host.
  562. @item @emph{Be sure it's the right kind of JTAG connector.}
  563. If your dongle has a 20-pin ARM connector, you need some kind
  564. of adapter (or octopus, see below) to hook it up to
  565. boards using 14-pin or 10-pin connectors ... or to 20-pin
  566. connectors which don't use ARM's pinout.
  567. In the same vein, make sure the voltage levels are compatible.
  568. Not all JTAG adapters have the level shifters needed to work
  569. with 1.2 Volt boards.
  570. @item @emph{Be certain the cable is properly oriented} or you might
  571. damage your board. In most cases there are only two possible
  572. ways to connect the cable.
  573. Connect the JTAG cable from your adapter to the board.
  574. Be sure it's firmly connected.
  575. In the best case, the connector is keyed to physically
  576. prevent you from inserting it wrong.
  577. This is most often done using a slot on the board's male connector
  578. housing, which must match a key on the JTAG cable's female connector.
  579. If there's no housing, then you must look carefully and
  580. make sure pin 1 on the cable hooks up to pin 1 on the board.
  581. Ribbon cables are frequently all grey except for a wire on one
  582. edge, which is red. The red wire is pin 1.
  583. Sometimes dongles provide cables where one end is an ``octopus'' of
  584. color coded single-wire connectors, instead of a connector block.
  585. These are great when converting from one JTAG pinout to another,
  586. but are tedious to set up.
  587. Use these with connector pinout diagrams to help you match up the
  588. adapter signals to the right board pins.
  589. @item @emph{Connect the adapter's other end} once the JTAG cable is connected.
  590. A USB, parallel, or serial port connector will go to the host which
  591. you are using to run OpenOCD.
  592. For Ethernet, consult the documentation and your network administrator.
  593. For USB based JTAG adapters you have an easy sanity check at this point:
  594. does the host operating system see the JTAG adapter? If that host is an
  595. MS-Windows host, you'll need to install a driver before OpenOCD works.
  596. @item @emph{Connect the adapter's power supply, if needed.}
  597. This step is primarily for non-USB adapters,
  598. but sometimes USB adapters need extra power.
  599. @item @emph{Power up the target board.}
  600. Unless you just let the magic smoke escape,
  601. you're now ready to set up the OpenOCD server
  602. so you can use JTAG to work with that board.
  603. @end enumerate
  604. Talk with the OpenOCD server using
  605. telnet (@code{telnet localhost 4444} on many systems) or GDB.
  606. @xref{GDB and OpenOCD}.
  607. @section Project Directory
  608. There are many ways you can configure OpenOCD and start it up.
  609. A simple way to organize them all involves keeping a
  610. single directory for your work with a given board.
  611. When you start OpenOCD from that directory,
  612. it searches there first for configuration files, scripts,
  613. files accessed through semihosting,
  614. and for code you upload to the target board.
  615. It is also the natural place to write files,
  616. such as log files and data you download from the board.
  617. @section Configuration Basics
  618. There are two basic ways of configuring OpenOCD, and
  619. a variety of ways you can mix them.
  620. Think of the difference as just being how you start the server:
  621. @itemize
  622. @item Many @option{-f file} or @option{-c command} options on the command line
  623. @item No options, but a @dfn{user config file}
  624. in the current directory named @file{openocd.cfg}
  625. @end itemize
  626. Here is an example @file{openocd.cfg} file for a setup
  627. using a Signalyzer FT2232-based JTAG adapter to talk to
  628. a board with an Atmel AT91SAM7X256 microcontroller:
  629. @example
  630. source [find interface/signalyzer.cfg]
  631. # GDB can also flash my flash!
  632. gdb_memory_map enable
  633. gdb_flash_program enable
  634. source [find target/sam7x256.cfg]
  635. @end example
  636. Here is the command line equivalent of that configuration:
  637. @example
  638. openocd -f interface/signalyzer.cfg \
  639. -c "gdb_memory_map enable" \
  640. -c "gdb_flash_program enable" \
  641. -f target/sam7x256.cfg
  642. @end example
  643. You could wrap such long command lines in shell scripts,
  644. each supporting a different development task.
  645. One might re-flash the board with a specific firmware version.
  646. Another might set up a particular debugging or run-time environment.
  647. @quotation Important
  648. At this writing (October 2009) the command line method has
  649. problems with how it treats variables.
  650. For example, after @option{-c "set VAR value"}, or doing the
  651. same in a script, the variable @var{VAR} will have no value
  652. that can be tested in a later script.
  653. @end quotation
  654. Here we will focus on the simpler solution: one user config
  655. file, including basic configuration plus any TCL procedures
  656. to simplify your work.
  657. @section User Config Files
  658. @cindex config file, user
  659. @cindex user config file
  660. @cindex config file, overview
  661. A user configuration file ties together all the parts of a project
  662. in one place.
  663. One of the following will match your situation best:
  664. @itemize
  665. @item Ideally almost everything comes from configuration files
  666. provided by someone else.
  667. For example, OpenOCD distributes a @file{scripts} directory
  668. (probably in @file{/usr/share/openocd/scripts} on Linux).
  669. Board and tool vendors can provide these too, as can individual
  670. user sites; the @option{-s} command line option lets you say
  671. where to find these files. (@xref{Running}.)
  672. The AT91SAM7X256 example above works this way.
  673. Three main types of non-user configuration file each have their
  674. own subdirectory in the @file{scripts} directory:
  675. @enumerate
  676. @item @b{interface} -- one for each different debug adapter;
  677. @item @b{board} -- one for each different board
  678. @item @b{target} -- the chips which integrate CPUs and other JTAG TAPs
  679. @end enumerate
  680. Best case: include just two files, and they handle everything else.
  681. The first is an interface config file.
  682. The second is board-specific, and it sets up the JTAG TAPs and
  683. their GDB targets (by deferring to some @file{target.cfg} file),
  684. declares all flash memory, and leaves you nothing to do except
  685. meet your deadline:
  686. @example
  687. source [find interface/olimex-jtag-tiny.cfg]
  688. source [find board/csb337.cfg]
  689. @end example
  690. Boards with a single microcontroller often won't need more
  691. than the target config file, as in the AT91SAM7X256 example.
  692. That's because there is no external memory (flash, DDR RAM), and
  693. the board differences are encapsulated by application code.
  694. @item Maybe you don't know yet what your board looks like to JTAG.
  695. Once you know the @file{interface.cfg} file to use, you may
  696. need help from OpenOCD to discover what's on the board.
  697. Once you find the JTAG TAPs, you can just search for appropriate
  698. target and board
  699. configuration files ... or write your own, from the bottom up.
  700. @xref{Autoprobing}.
  701. @item You can often reuse some standard config files but
  702. need to write a few new ones, probably a @file{board.cfg} file.
  703. You will be using commands described later in this User's Guide,
  704. and working with the guidelines in the next chapter.
  705. For example, there may be configuration files for your JTAG adapter
  706. and target chip, but you need a new board-specific config file
  707. giving access to your particular flash chips.
  708. Or you might need to write another target chip configuration file
  709. for a new chip built around the Cortex M3 core.
  710. @quotation Note
  711. When you write new configuration files, please submit
  712. them for inclusion in the next OpenOCD release.
  713. For example, a @file{board/newboard.cfg} file will help the
  714. next users of that board, and a @file{target/newcpu.cfg}
  715. will help support users of any board using that chip.
  716. @end quotation
  717. @item
  718. You may may need to write some C code.
  719. It may be as simple as a supporting a new ft2232 or parport
  720. based adapter; a bit more involved, like a NAND or NOR flash
  721. controller driver; or a big piece of work like supporting
  722. a new chip architecture.
  723. @end itemize
  724. Reuse the existing config files when you can.
  725. Look first in the @file{scripts/boards} area, then @file{scripts/targets}.
  726. You may find a board configuration that's a good example to follow.
  727. When you write config files, separate the reusable parts
  728. (things every user of that interface, chip, or board needs)
  729. from ones specific to your environment and debugging approach.
  730. @itemize
  731. @item
  732. For example, a @code{gdb-attach} event handler that invokes
  733. the @command{reset init} command will interfere with debugging
  734. early boot code, which performs some of the same actions
  735. that the @code{reset-init} event handler does.
  736. @item
  737. Likewise, the @command{arm9 vector_catch} command (or
  738. @cindex vector_catch
  739. its siblings @command{xscale vector_catch}
  740. and @command{cortex_m3 vector_catch}) can be a timesaver
  741. during some debug sessions, but don't make everyone use that either.
  742. Keep those kinds of debugging aids in your user config file,
  743. along with messaging and tracing setup.
  744. (@xref{Software Debug Messages and Tracing}.)
  745. @item
  746. You might need to override some defaults.
  747. For example, you might need to move, shrink, or back up the target's
  748. work area if your application needs much SRAM.
  749. @item
  750. TCP/IP port configuration is another example of something which
  751. is environment-specific, and should only appear in
  752. a user config file. @xref{TCP/IP Ports}.
  753. @end itemize
  754. @section Project-Specific Utilities
  755. A few project-specific utility
  756. routines may well speed up your work.
  757. Write them, and keep them in your project's user config file.
  758. For example, if you are making a boot loader work on a
  759. board, it's nice to be able to debug the ``after it's
  760. loaded to RAM'' parts separately from the finicky early
  761. code which sets up the DDR RAM controller and clocks.
  762. A script like this one, or a more GDB-aware sibling,
  763. may help:
  764. @example
  765. proc ramboot @{ @} @{
  766. # Reset, running the target's "reset-init" scripts
  767. # to initialize clocks and the DDR RAM controller.
  768. # Leave the CPU halted.
  769. reset init
  770. # Load CONFIG_SKIP_LOWLEVEL_INIT version into DDR RAM.
  771. load_image u-boot.bin 0x20000000
  772. # Start running.
  773. resume 0x20000000
  774. @}
  775. @end example
  776. Then once that code is working you will need to make it
  777. boot from NOR flash; a different utility would help.
  778. Alternatively, some developers write to flash using GDB.
  779. (You might use a similar script if you're working with a flash
  780. based microcontroller application instead of a boot loader.)
  781. @example
  782. proc newboot @{ @} @{
  783. # Reset, leaving the CPU halted. The "reset-init" event
  784. # proc gives faster access to the CPU and to NOR flash;
  785. # "reset halt" would be slower.
  786. reset init
  787. # Write standard version of U-Boot into the first two
  788. # sectors of NOR flash ... the standard version should
  789. # do the same lowlevel init as "reset-init".
  790. flash protect 0 0 1 off
  791. flash erase_sector 0 0 1
  792. flash write_bank 0 u-boot.bin 0x0
  793. flash protect 0 0 1 on
  794. # Reboot from scratch using that new boot loader.
  795. reset run
  796. @}
  797. @end example
  798. You may need more complicated utility procedures when booting
  799. from NAND.
  800. That often involves an extra bootloader stage,
  801. running from on-chip SRAM to perform DDR RAM setup so it can load
  802. the main bootloader code (which won't fit into that SRAM).
  803. Other helper scripts might be used to write production system images,
  804. involving considerably more than just a three stage bootloader.
  805. @section Target Software Changes
  806. Sometimes you may want to make some small changes to the software
  807. you're developing, to help make JTAG debugging work better.
  808. For example, in C or assembly language code you might
  809. use @code{#ifdef JTAG_DEBUG} (or its converse) around code
  810. handling issues like:
  811. @itemize @bullet
  812. @item @b{Watchdog Timers}...
  813. Watchog timers are typically used to automatically reset systems if
  814. some application task doesn't periodically reset the timer. (The
  815. assumption is that the system has locked up if the task can't run.)
  816. When a JTAG debugger halts the system, that task won't be able to run
  817. and reset the timer ... potentially causing resets in the middle of
  818. your debug sessions.
  819. It's rarely a good idea to disable such watchdogs, since their usage
  820. needs to be debugged just like all other parts of your firmware.
  821. That might however be your only option.
  822. Look instead for chip-specific ways to stop the watchdog from counting
  823. while the system is in a debug halt state. It may be simplest to set
  824. that non-counting mode in your debugger startup scripts. You may however
  825. need a different approach when, for example, a motor could be physically
  826. damaged by firmware remaining inactive in a debug halt state. That might
  827. involve a type of firmware mode where that "non-counting" mode is disabled
  828. at the beginning then re-enabled at the end; a watchdog reset might fire
  829. and complicate the debug session, but hardware (or people) would be
  830. protected.@footnote{Note that many systems support a "monitor mode" debug
  831. that is a somewhat cleaner way to address such issues. You can think of
  832. it as only halting part of the system, maybe just one task,
  833. instead of the whole thing.
  834. At this writing, January 2010, OpenOCD based debugging does not support
  835. monitor mode debug, only "halt mode" debug.}
  836. @item @b{ARM Semihosting}...
  837. @cindex ARM semihosting
  838. When linked with a special runtime library provided with many
  839. toolchains@footnote{See chapter 8 "Semihosting" in
  840. @uref{http://infocenter.arm.com/help/topic/com.arm.doc.dui0203i/DUI0203I_rvct_developer_guide.pdf,
  841. ARM DUI 0203I}, the "RealView Compilation Tools Developer Guide".
  842. The CodeSourcery EABI toolchain also includes a semihosting library.},
  843. your target code can use I/O facilities on the debug host. That library
  844. provides a small set of system calls which are handled by OpenOCD.
  845. It can let the debugger provide your system console and a file system,
  846. helping with early debugging or providing a more capable environment
  847. for sometimes-complex tasks like installing system firmware onto
  848. NAND or SPI flash.
  849. @item @b{ARM Wait-For-Interrupt}...
  850. Many ARM chips synchronize the JTAG clock using the core clock.
  851. Low power states which stop that core clock thus prevent JTAG access.
  852. Idle loops in tasking environments often enter those low power states
  853. via the @code{WFI} instruction (or its coprocessor equivalent, before ARMv7).
  854. You may want to @emph{disable that instruction} in source code,
  855. or otherwise prevent using that state,
  856. to ensure you can get JTAG access at any time.@footnote{As a more
  857. polite alternative, some processors have special debug-oriented
  858. registers which can be used to change various features including
  859. how the low power states are clocked while debugging.
  860. The STM32 DBGMCU_CR register is an example; at the cost of extra
  861. power consumption, JTAG can be used during low power states.}
  862. For example, the OpenOCD @command{halt} command may not
  863. work for an idle processor otherwise.
  864. @item @b{Delay after reset}...
  865. Not all chips have good support for debugger access
  866. right after reset; many LPC2xxx chips have issues here.
  867. Similarly, applications that reconfigure pins used for
  868. JTAG access as they start will also block debugger access.
  869. To work with boards like this, @emph{enable a short delay loop}
  870. the first thing after reset, before "real" startup activities.
  871. For example, one second's delay is usually more than enough
  872. time for a JTAG debugger to attach, so that
  873. early code execution can be debugged
  874. or firmware can be replaced.
  875. @item @b{Debug Communications Channel (DCC)}...
  876. Some processors include mechanisms to send messages over JTAG.
  877. Many ARM cores support these, as do some cores from other vendors.
  878. (OpenOCD may be able to use this DCC internally, speeding up some
  879. operations like writing to memory.)
  880. Your application may want to deliver various debugging messages
  881. over JTAG, by @emph{linking with a small library of code}
  882. provided with OpenOCD and using the utilities there to send
  883. various kinds of message.
  884. @xref{Software Debug Messages and Tracing}.
  885. @end itemize
  886. @section Target Hardware Setup
  887. Chip vendors often provide software development boards which
  888. are highly configurable, so that they can support all options
  889. that product boards may require. @emph{Make sure that any
  890. jumpers or switches match the system configuration you are
  891. working with.}
  892. Common issues include:
  893. @itemize @bullet
  894. @item @b{JTAG setup} ...
  895. Boards may support more than one JTAG configuration.
  896. Examples include jumpers controlling pullups versus pulldowns
  897. on the nTRST and/or nSRST signals, and choice of connectors
  898. (e.g. which of two headers on the base board,
  899. or one from a daughtercard).
  900. For some Texas Instruments boards, you may need to jumper the
  901. EMU0 and EMU1 signals (which OpenOCD won't currently control).
  902. @item @b{Boot Modes} ...
  903. Complex chips often support multiple boot modes, controlled
  904. by external jumpers. Make sure this is set up correctly.
  905. For example many i.MX boards from NXP need to be jumpered
  906. to "ATX mode" to start booting using the on-chip ROM, when
  907. using second stage bootloader code stored in a NAND flash chip.
  908. Such explicit configuration is common, and not limited to
  909. booting from NAND. You might also need to set jumpers to
  910. start booting using code loaded from an MMC/SD card; external
  911. SPI flash; Ethernet, UART, or USB links; NOR flash; OneNAND
  912. flash; some external host; or various other sources.
  913. @item @b{Memory Addressing} ...
  914. Boards which support multiple boot modes may also have jumpers
  915. to configure memory addressing. One board, for example, jumpers
  916. external chipselect 0 (used for booting) to address either
  917. a large SRAM (which must be pre-loaded via JTAG), NOR flash,
  918. or NAND flash. When it's jumpered to address NAND flash, that
  919. board must also be told to start booting from on-chip ROM.
  920. Your @file{board.cfg} file may also need to be told this jumper
  921. configuration, so that it can know whether to declare NOR flash
  922. using @command{flash bank} or instead declare NAND flash with
  923. @command{nand device}; and likewise which probe to perform in
  924. its @code{reset-init} handler.
  925. A closely related issue is bus width. Jumpers might need to
  926. distinguish between 8 bit or 16 bit bus access for the flash
  927. used to start booting.
  928. @item @b{Peripheral Access} ...
  929. Development boards generally provide access to every peripheral
  930. on the chip, sometimes in multiple modes (such as by providing
  931. multiple audio codec chips).
  932. This interacts with software
  933. configuration of pin multiplexing, where for example a
  934. given pin may be routed either to the MMC/SD controller
  935. or the GPIO controller. It also often interacts with
  936. configuration jumpers. One jumper may be used to route
  937. signals to an MMC/SD card slot or an expansion bus (which
  938. might in turn affect booting); others might control which
  939. audio or video codecs are used.
  940. @end itemize
  941. Plus you should of course have @code{reset-init} event handlers
  942. which set up the hardware to match that jumper configuration.
  943. That includes in particular any oscillator or PLL used to clock
  944. the CPU, and any memory controllers needed to access external
  945. memory and peripherals. Without such handlers, you won't be
  946. able to access those resources without working target firmware
  947. which can do that setup ... this can be awkward when you're
  948. trying to debug that target firmware. Even if there's a ROM
  949. bootloader which handles a few issues, it rarely provides full
  950. access to all board-specific capabilities.

  952. @chapter Config File Guidelines
  953. This chapter is aimed at any user who needs to write a config file,
  954. including developers and integrators of OpenOCD and any user who
  955. needs to get a new board working smoothly.
  956. It provides guidelines for creating those files.

  982. They reuse target configuration files, since the same
  983. microprocessor chips are used on many boards,
  984. but support for external parts varies widely. For
  985. example, the SDRAM initialization sequence for the board, or the type
  986. of external flash and what address it uses. Any initialization
  987. sequence to enable that external flash or SDRAM should be found in the

  1083. @example
  1084. source [find board/FOOBAR.cfg]
  1085. @end example
  1086. The point of a board config file is to package everything
  1087. about a given board that user config files need to know.
  1088. In summary the board files should contain (if present)
  1089. @enumerate
  1090. @item One or more @command{source [target/...cfg]} statements
  1091. @item NOR flash configuration (@pxref{NOR Configuration})
  1092. @item NAND flash configuration (@pxref{NAND Configuration})
  1093. @item Target @code{reset} handlers for SDRAM and I/O configuration
  1094. @item JTAG adapter reset configuration (@pxref{Reset Configuration})
  1095. @item All things that are not ``inside a chip''
  1096. @end enumerate
  1097. Generic things inside target chips belong in target config files,
  1098. not board config files. So for example a @code{reset-init} event
  1099. handler should know board-specific oscillator and PLL parameters,
  1100. which it passes to target-specific utility code.
  1101. The most complex task of a board config file is creating such a
  1102. @code{reset-init} event handler.
  1103. Define those handlers last, after you verify the rest of the board
  1104. configuration works.
  1105. @subsection Communication Between Config files
  1106. In addition to target-specific utility code, another way that
  1107. board and target config files communicate is by following a
  1108. convention on how to use certain variables.
  1109. The full Tcl/Tk language supports ``namespaces'', but Jim-Tcl does not.
  1110. Thus the rule we follow in OpenOCD is this: Variables that begin with
  1111. a leading underscore are temporary in nature, and can be modified and
  1112. used at will within a target configuration file.
  1113. Complex board config files can do the things like this,
  1114. for a board with three chips:
  1115. @example
  1116. # Chip #1: PXA270 for network side, big endian
  1117. set CHIPNAME network
  1118. set ENDIAN big
  1119. source [find target/pxa270.cfg]
  1120. # on return: _TARGETNAME = network.cpu
  1121. # other commands can refer to the "network.cpu" target.
  1122. $_TARGETNAME configure .... events for this CPU..
  1123. # Chip #2: PXA270 for video side, little endian
  1124. set CHIPNAME video
  1125. set ENDIAN little
  1126. source [find target/pxa270.cfg]
  1127. # on return: _TARGETNAME = video.cpu
  1128. # other commands can refer to the "video.cpu" target.
  1129. $_TARGETNAME configure .... events for this CPU..
  1130. # Chip #3: Xilinx FPGA for glue logic
  1131. set CHIPNAME xilinx
  1132. unset ENDIAN
  1133. source [find target/spartan3.cfg]
  1134. @end example
  1135. That example is oversimplified because it doesn't show any flash memory,
  1136. or the @code{reset-init} event handlers to initialize external DRAM
  1137. or (assuming it needs it) load a configuration into the FPGA.
  1138. Such features are usually needed for low-level work with many boards,
  1139. where ``low level'' implies that the board initialization software may
  1140. not be working. (That's a common reason to need JTAG tools. Another
  1141. is to enable working with microcontroller-based systems, which often
  1142. have no debugging support except a JTAG connector.)
  1143. Target config files may also export utility functions to board and user
  1144. config files. Such functions should use name prefixes, to help avoid
  1145. naming collisions.
  1146. Board files could also accept input variables from user config files.
  1147. For example, there might be a @code{J4_JUMPER} setting used to identify
  1148. what kind of flash memory a development board is using, or how to set
  1149. up other clocks and peripherals.
  1150. @subsection Variable Naming Convention
  1151. @cindex variable names
  1152. Most boards have only one instance of a chip.
  1153. However, it should be easy to create a board with more than
  1154. one such chip (as shown above).
  1155. Accordingly, we encourage these conventions for naming
  1156. variables associated with different @file{target.cfg} files,
  1157. to promote consistency and
  1158. so that board files can override target defaults.
  1159. Inputs to target config files include:
  1160. @itemize @bullet
  1161. @item @code{CHIPNAME} ...
  1162. This gives a name to the overall chip, and is used as part of
  1163. tap identifier dotted names.
  1164. While the default is normally provided by the chip manufacturer,
  1165. board files may need to distinguish between instances of a chip.
  1166. @item @code{ENDIAN} ...
  1167. By default @option{little} - although chips may hard-wire @option{big}.
  1168. Chips that can't change endianness don't need to use this variable.
  1169. @item @code{CPUTAPID} ...
  1170. When OpenOCD examines the JTAG chain, it can be told verify the
  1171. chips against the JTAG IDCODE register.
  1172. The target file will hold one or more defaults, but sometimes the
  1173. chip in a board will use a different ID (perhaps a newer revision).
  1174. @end itemize
  1175. Outputs from target config files include:
  1176. @itemize @bullet
  1177. @item @code{_TARGETNAME} ...
  1178. By convention, this variable is created by the target configuration
  1179. script. The board configuration file may make use of this variable to
  1180. configure things like a ``reset init'' script, or other things
  1181. specific to that board and that target.
  1182. If the chip has 2 targets, the names are @code{_TARGETNAME0},
  1183. @code{_TARGETNAME1}, ... etc.
  1184. @end itemize
  1185. @subsection The reset-init Event Handler
  1186. @cindex event, reset-init
  1187. @cindex reset-init handler
  1188. Board config files run in the OpenOCD configuration stage;
  1189. they can't use TAPs or targets, since they haven't been
  1190. fully set up yet.
  1191. This means you can't write memory or access chip registers;
  1192. you can't even verify that a flash chip is present.
  1193. That's done later in event handlers, of which the target @code{reset-init}
  1194. handler is one of the most important.
  1195. Except on microcontrollers, the basic job of @code{reset-init} event
  1196. handlers is setting up flash and DRAM, as normally handled by boot loaders.
  1197. Microcontrollers rarely use boot loaders; they run right out of their
  1198. on-chip flash and SRAM memory. But they may want to use one of these
  1199. handlers too, if just for developer convenience.
  1200. @quotation Note
  1201. Because this is so very board-specific, and chip-specific, no examples
  1202. are included here.
  1203. Instead, look at the board config files distributed with OpenOCD.
  1204. If you have a boot loader, its source code will help; so will
  1205. configuration files for other JTAG tools
  1206. (@pxref{Translating Configuration Files}).
  1207. @end quotation
  1208. Some of this code could probably be shared between different boards.
  1209. For example, setting up a DRAM controller often doesn't differ by
  1210. much except the bus width (16 bits or 32?) and memory timings, so a
  1211. reusable TCL procedure loaded by the @file{target.cfg} file might take
  1212. those as parameters.
  1213. Similarly with oscillator, PLL, and clock setup;
  1214. and disabling the watchdog.
  1215. Structure the code cleanly, and provide comments to help
  1216. the next developer doing such work.
  1217. (@emph{You might be that next person} trying to reuse init code!)
  1218. The last thing normally done in a @code{reset-init} handler is probing
  1219. whatever flash memory was configured. For most chips that needs to be
  1220. done while the associated target is halted, either because JTAG memory
  1221. access uses the CPU or to prevent conflicting CPU access.
  1222. @subsection JTAG Clock Rate
  1223. Before your @code{reset-init} handler has set up
  1224. the PLLs and clocking, you may need to run with
  1225. a low JTAG clock rate.
  1226. @xref{JTAG Speed}.
  1227. Then you'd increase that rate after your handler has
  1228. made it possible to use the faster JTAG clock.
  1229. When the initial low speed is board-specific, for example
  1230. because it depends on a board-specific oscillator speed, then
  1231. you should probably set it up in the board config file;
  1232. if it's target-specific, it belongs in the target config file.
  1233. For most ARM-based processors the fastest JTAG clock@footnote{A FAQ
  1234. @uref{http://www.arm.com/support/faqdev/4170.html} gives details.}
  1235. is one sixth of the CPU clock; or one eighth for ARM11 cores.
  1236. Consult chip documentation to determine the peak JTAG clock rate,
  1237. which might be less than that.
  1238. @quotation Warning
  1239. On most ARMs, JTAG clock detection is coupled to the core clock, so
  1240. software using a @option{wait for interrupt} operation blocks JTAG access.
  1241. Adaptive clocking provides a partial workaround, but a more complete
  1242. solution just avoids using that instruction with JTAG debuggers.
  1243. @end quotation
  1244. If both the chip and the board support adaptive clocking,
  1245. use the @command{jtag_rclk}
  1246. command, in case your board is used with JTAG adapter which
  1247. also supports it. Otherwise use @command{adapter_khz}.
  1248. Set the slow rate at the beginning of the reset sequence,
  1249. and the faster rate as soon as the clocks are at full speed.
  1250. @section Target Config Files
  1251. @cindex config file, target
  1252. @cindex target config file
  1253. Board config files communicate with target config files using
  1254. naming conventions as described above, and may source one or
  1255. more target config files like this:
  1256. @example
  1257. source [find target/FOOBAR.cfg]
  1258. @end example
  1259. The point of a target config file is to package everything
  1260. about a given chip that board config files need to know.
  1261. In summary the target files should contain
  1262. @enumerate
  1263. @item Set defaults
  1264. @item Add TAPs to the scan chain
  1265. @item Add CPU targets (includes GDB support)
  1266. @item CPU/Chip/CPU-Core specific features
  1267. @item On-Chip flash
  1268. @end enumerate
  1269. As a rule of thumb, a target file sets up only one chip.
  1270. For a microcontroller, that will often include a single TAP,
  1271. which is a CPU needing a GDB target, and its on-chip flash.
  1272. More complex chips may include multiple TAPs, and the target
  1273. config file may need to define them all before OpenOCD
  1274. can talk to the chip.
  1275. For example, some phone chips have JTAG scan chains that include
  1276. an ARM core for operating system use, a DSP,
  1277. another ARM core embedded in an image processing engine,
  1278. and other processing engines.
  1279. @subsection Default Value Boiler Plate Code
  1280. All target configuration files should start with code like this,
  1281. letting board config files express environment-specific
  1282. differences in how things should be set up.
  1283. @example
  1284. # Boards may override chip names, perhaps based on role,
  1285. # but the default should match what the vendor uses
  1286. if @{ [info exists CHIPNAME] @} @{
  1287. set _CHIPNAME $CHIPNAME
  1288. @} else @{
  1289. set _CHIPNAME sam7x256
  1290. @}
  1291. # ONLY use ENDIAN with targets that can change it.
  1292. if @{ [info exists ENDIAN] @} @{
  1293. set _ENDIAN $ENDIAN
  1294. @} else @{
  1295. set _ENDIAN little
  1296. @}
  1297. # TAP identifiers may change as chips mature, for example with
  1298. # new revision fields (the "3" here). Pick a good default; you
  1299. # can pass several such identifiers to the "jtag newtap" command.
  1300. if @{ [info exists CPUTAPID ] @} @{
  1301. set _CPUTAPID $CPUTAPID
  1302. @} else @{
  1303. set _CPUTAPID 0x3f0f0f0f
  1304. @}
  1305. @end example
  1306. @c but 0x3f0f0f0f is for an str73x part ...
  1307. @emph{Remember:} Board config files may include multiple target
  1308. config files, or the same target file multiple times
  1309. (changing at least @code{CHIPNAME}).
  1310. Likewise, the target configuration file should define
  1311. @code{_TARGETNAME} (or @code{_TARGETNAME0} etc) and
  1312. use it later on when defining debug targets:
  1313. @example
  1314. set _TARGETNAME $_CHIPNAME.cpu
  1315. target create $_TARGETNAME arm7tdmi -chain-position $_TARGETNAME
  1316. @end example
  1317. @subsection Adding TAPs to the Scan Chain
  1318. After the ``defaults'' are set up,
  1319. add the TAPs on each chip to the JTAG scan chain.
  1320. @xref{TAP Declaration}, and the naming convention
  1321. for taps.
  1322. In the simplest case the chip has only one TAP,
  1323. probably for a CPU or FPGA.
  1324. The config file for the Atmel AT91SAM7X256
  1325. looks (in part) like this:
  1326. @example
  1327. jtag newtap $_CHIPNAME cpu -irlen 4 -expected-id $_CPUTAPID
  1328. @end example
  1329. A board with two such at91sam7 chips would be able
  1330. to source such a config file twice, with different
  1331. values for @code{CHIPNAME}, so
  1332. it adds a different TAP each time.
  1333. If there are nonzero @option{-expected-id} values,
  1334. OpenOCD attempts to verify the actual tap id against those values.
  1335. It will issue error messages if there is mismatch, which
  1336. can help to pinpoint problems in OpenOCD configurations.
  1337. @example
  1338. JTAG tap: sam7x256.cpu tap/device found: 0x3f0f0f0f
  1339. (Manufacturer: 0x787, Part: 0xf0f0, Version: 0x3)
  1340. ERROR: Tap: sam7x256.cpu - Expected id: 0x12345678, Got: 0x3f0f0f0f
  1341. ERROR: expected: mfg: 0x33c, part: 0x2345, ver: 0x1
  1342. ERROR: got: mfg: 0x787, part: 0xf0f0, ver: 0x3
  1343. @end example
  1344. There are more complex examples too, with chips that have
  1345. multiple TAPs. Ones worth looking at include:
  1346. @itemize
  1347. @item @file{target/omap3530.cfg} -- with disabled ARM and DSP,
  1348. plus a JRC to enable them
  1349. @item @file{target/str912.cfg} -- with flash, CPU, and boundary scan
  1350. @item @file{target/ti_dm355.cfg} -- with ETM, ARM, and JRC (this JRC
  1351. is not currently used)
  1352. @end itemize
  1353. @subsection Add CPU targets
  1354. After adding a TAP for a CPU, you should set it up so that
  1355. GDB and other commands can use it.
  1356. @xref{CPU Configuration}.
  1357. For the at91sam7 example above, the command can look like this;
  1358. note that @code{$_ENDIAN} is not needed, since OpenOCD defaults
  1359. to little endian, and this chip doesn't support changing that.
  1360. @example
  1361. set _TARGETNAME $_CHIPNAME.cpu
  1362. target create $_TARGETNAME arm7tdmi -chain-position $_TARGETNAME
  1363. @end example
  1364. Work areas are small RAM areas associated with CPU targets.
  1365. They are used by OpenOCD to speed up downloads,
  1366. and to download small snippets of code to program flash chips.
  1367. If the chip includes a form of ``on-chip-ram'' - and many do - define
  1368. a work area if you can.
  1369. Again using the at91sam7 as an example, this can look like:
  1370. @example
  1371. $_TARGETNAME configure -work-area-phys 0x00200000 \
  1372. -work-area-size 0x4000 -work-area-backup 0
  1373. @end example
  1374. @pxref{Define CPU targets working in SMP}
  1375. @anchor{Define CPU targets working in SMP}
  1376. @subsection Define CPU targets working in SMP
  1377. @cindex SMP
  1378. After setting targets, you can define a list of targets working in SMP.
  1379. @example
  1380. set _TARGETNAME_1 $_CHIPNAME.cpu1
  1381. set _TARGETNAME_2 $_CHIPNAME.cpu2
  1382. target create $_TARGETNAME_1 cortex_a8 -chain-position $_CHIPNAME.dap \
  1383. -coreid 0 -dbgbase $_DAP_DBG1
  1384. target create $_TARGETNAME_2 cortex_a8 -chain-position $_CHIPNAME.dap \
  1385. -coreid 1 -dbgbase $_DAP_DBG2
  1386. #define 2 targets working in smp.
  1387. target smp $_CHIPNAME.cpu2 $_CHIPNAME.cpu1
  1388. @end example
  1389. In the above example on cortex_a8, 2 cpus are working in SMP.
  1390. In SMP only one GDB instance is created and :
  1391. @itemize @bullet
  1392. @item a set of hardware breakpoint sets the same breakpoint on all targets in the list.
  1393. @item halt command triggers the halt of all targets in the list.
  1394. @item resume command triggers the write context and the restart of all targets in the list.
  1395. @item following a breakpoint: the target stopped by the breakpoint is displayed to the GDB session.
  1396. @item dedicated GDB serial protocol packets are implemented for switching/retrieving the target
  1397. displayed by the GDB session @pxref{Using openocd SMP with GDB}.
  1398. @end itemize
  1399. The SMP behaviour can be disabled/enabled dynamically. On cortex_a8 following
  1400. command have been implemented.
  1401. @itemize @bullet
  1402. @item cortex_a8 smp_on : enable SMP mode, behaviour is as described above.
  1403. @item cortex_a8 smp_off : disable SMP mode, the current target is the one
  1404. displayed in the GDB session, only this target is now controlled by GDB
  1405. session. This behaviour is useful during system boot up.
  1406. @item cortex_a8 smp_gdb : display/fix the core id displayed in GDB session see
  1407. following example.
  1408. @end itemize
  1409. @example
  1410. >cortex_a8 smp_gdb
  1411. gdb coreid 0 -> -1
  1412. #0 : coreid 0 is displayed to GDB ,
  1413. #-> -1 : next resume triggers a real resume
  1414. > cortex_a8 smp_gdb 1
  1415. gdb coreid 0 -> 1
  1416. #0 :coreid 0 is displayed to GDB ,
  1417. #->1 : next resume displays coreid 1 to GDB
  1418. > resume
  1419. > cortex_a8 smp_gdb
  1420. gdb coreid 1 -> 1
  1421. #1 :coreid 1 is displayed to GDB ,
  1422. #->1 : next resume displays coreid 1 to GDB
  1423. > cortex_a8 smp_gdb -1
  1424. gdb coreid 1 -> -1
  1425. #1 :coreid 1 is displayed to GDB,
  1426. #->-1 : next resume triggers a real resume
  1427. @end example
  1428. @subsection Chip Reset Setup
  1429. As a rule, you should put the @command{reset_config} command
  1430. into the board file. Most things you think you know about a
  1431. chip can be tweaked by the board.
  1432. Some chips have specific ways the TRST and SRST signals are
  1433. managed. In the unusual case that these are @emph{chip specific}
  1434. and can never be changed by board wiring, they could go here.
  1435. For example, some chips can't support JTAG debugging without
  1436. both signals.
  1437. Provide a @code{reset-assert} event handler if you can.
  1438. Such a handler uses JTAG operations to reset the target,
  1439. letting this target config be used in systems which don't
  1440. provide the optional SRST signal, or on systems where you
  1441. don't want to reset all targets at once.
  1442. Such a handler might write to chip registers to force a reset,
  1443. use a JRC to do that (preferable -- the target may be wedged!),
  1444. or force a watchdog timer to trigger.
  1445. (For Cortex-M3 targets, this is not necessary. The target
  1446. driver knows how to use trigger an NVIC reset when SRST is
  1447. not available.)
  1448. Some chips need special attention during reset handling if
  1449. they're going to be used with JTAG.
  1450. An example might be needing to send some commands right
  1451. after the target's TAP has been reset, providing a
  1452. @code{reset-deassert-post} event handler that writes a chip
  1453. register to report that JTAG debugging is being done.
  1454. Another would be reconfiguring the watchdog so that it stops
  1455. counting while the core is halted in the debugger.
  1456. JTAG clocking constraints often change during reset, and in
  1457. some cases target config files (rather than board config files)
  1458. are the right places to handle some of those issues.
  1459. For example, immediately after reset most chips run using a
  1460. slower clock than they will use later.
  1461. That means that after reset (and potentially, as OpenOCD
  1462. first starts up) they must use a slower JTAG clock rate
  1463. than they will use later.
  1464. @xref{JTAG Speed}.
  1465. @quotation Important
  1466. When you are debugging code that runs right after chip
  1467. reset, getting these issues right is critical.
  1468. In particular, if you see intermittent failures when
  1469. OpenOCD verifies the scan chain after reset,
  1470. look at how you are setting up JTAG clocking.
  1471. @end quotation
  1472. @subsection ARM Core Specific Hacks
  1473. If the chip has a DCC, enable it. If the chip is an ARM9 with some
  1474. special high speed download features - enable it.
  1475. If present, the MMU, the MPU and the CACHE should be disabled.
  1476. Some ARM cores are equipped with trace support, which permits
  1477. examination of the instruction and data bus activity. Trace
  1478. activity is controlled through an ``Embedded Trace Module'' (ETM)
  1479. on one of the core's scan chains. The ETM emits voluminous data
  1480. through a ``trace port''. (@xref{ARM Hardware Tracing}.)
  1481. If you are using an external trace port,
  1482. configure it in your board config file.
  1483. If you are using an on-chip ``Embedded Trace Buffer'' (ETB),
  1484. configure it in your target config file.
  1485. @example
  1486. etm config $_TARGETNAME 16 normal full etb
  1487. etb config $_TARGETNAME $_CHIPNAME.etb
  1488. @end example
  1489. @subsection Internal Flash Configuration
  1490. This applies @b{ONLY TO MICROCONTROLLERS} that have flash built in.
  1491. @b{Never ever} in the ``target configuration file'' define any type of
  1492. flash that is external to the chip. (For example a BOOT flash on
  1493. Chip Select 0.) Such flash information goes in a board file - not
  1494. the TARGET (chip) file.
  1495. Examples:
  1496. @itemize @bullet
  1497. @item at91sam7x256 - has 256K flash YES enable it.
  1498. @item str912 - has flash internal YES enable it.
  1499. @item imx27 - uses boot flash on CS0 - it goes in the board file.
  1500. @item pxa270 - again - CS0 flash - it goes in the board file.

  1502. @anchor{Translating Configuration Files}
  1503. @section Translating Configuration Files
  1504. @cindex translation
  1505. If you have a configuration file for another hardware debugger
  1506. or toolset (Abatron, BDI2000, BDI3000, CCS,
  1507. Lauterbach, Segger, Macraigor, etc.), translating
  1508. it into OpenOCD syntax is often quite straightforward. The most tricky
  1509. part of creating a configuration script is oftentimes the reset init
  1510. sequence where e.g. PLLs, DRAM and the like is set up.
  1511. One trick that you can use when translating is to write small
  1512. Tcl procedures to translate the syntax into OpenOCD syntax. This
  1513. can avoid manual translation errors and make it easier to
  1514. convert other scripts later on.
  1515. Example of transforming quirky arguments to a simple search and
  1516. replace job:
  1517. @example
  1518. # Lauterbach syntax(?)

  1536. The commands here are commonly found in the openocd.cfg file and are
  1537. used to specify what TCP/IP ports are used, and how GDB should be
  1538. supported.
  1539. @anchor{Configuration Stage}
  1540. @section Configuration Stage
  1541. @cindex configuration stage
  1542. @cindex config command
  1543. When the OpenOCD server process starts up, it enters a
  1544. @emph{configuration stage} which is the only time that
  1545. certain commands, @emph{configuration commands}, may be issued.
  1546. Normally, configuration commands are only available
  1547. inside startup scripts.
  1548. In this manual, the definition of a configuration command is
  1549. presented as a @emph{Config Command}, not as a @emph{Command}
  1550. which may be issued interactively.
  1551. The runtime @command{help} command also highlights configuration
  1552. commands, and those which may be issued at any time.
  1553. Those configuration commands include declaration of TAPs,
  1554. flash banks,
  1555. the interface used for JTAG communication,
  1556. and other basic setup.
  1557. The server must leave the configuration stage before it
  1558. may access or activate TAPs.
  1559. After it leaves this stage, configuration commands may no
  1560. longer be issued.
  1561. @section Entering the Run Stage
  1562. The first thing OpenOCD does after leaving the configuration
  1563. stage is to verify that it can talk to the scan chain
  1564. (list of TAPs) which has been configured.
  1565. It will warn if it doesn't find TAPs it expects to find,
  1566. or finds TAPs that aren't supposed to be there.
  1567. You should see no errors at this point.
  1568. If you see errors, resolve them by correcting the
  1569. commands you used to configure the server.
  1570. Common errors include using an initial JTAG speed that's too
  1571. fast, and not providing the right IDCODE values for the TAPs
  1572. on the scan chain.
  1573. Once OpenOCD has entered the run stage, a number of commands
  1574. become available.
  1575. A number of these relate to the debug targets you may have declared.
  1576. For example, the @command{mww} command will not be available until
  1577. a target has been successfuly instantiated.
  1578. If you want to use those commands, you may need to force
  1579. entry to the run stage.
  1580. @deffn {Config Command} init
  1581. This command terminates the configuration stage and
  1582. enters the run stage. This helps when you need to have
  1583. the startup scripts manage tasks such as resetting the target,
  1584. programming flash, etc. To reset the CPU upon startup, add "init" and
  1585. "reset" at the end of the config script or at the end of the OpenOCD
  1586. command line using the @option{-c} command line switch.
  1587. If this command does not appear in any startup/configuration file
  1588. OpenOCD executes the command for you after processing all
  1589. configuration files and/or command line options.
  1590. @b{NOTE:} This command normally occurs at or near the end of your
  1591. openocd.cfg file to force OpenOCD to ``initialize'' and make the
  1592. targets ready. For example: If your openocd.cfg file needs to
  1593. read/write memory on your target, @command{init} must occur before
  1594. the memory read/write commands. This includes @command{nand probe}.
  1595. @end deffn
  1596. @deffn {Overridable Procedure} jtag_init
  1597. This is invoked at server startup to verify that it can talk
  1598. to the scan chain (list of TAPs) which has been configured.
  1599. The default implementation first tries @command{jtag arp_init},
  1600. which uses only a lightweight JTAG reset before examining the
  1601. scan chain.
  1602. If that fails, it tries again, using a harder reset
  1603. from the overridable procedure @command{init_reset}.
  1604. Implementations must have verified the JTAG scan chain before
  1605. they return.
  1606. This is done by calling @command{jtag arp_init}
  1607. (or @command{jtag arp_init-reset}).

  1613. @cindex port
  1614. @cindex security
  1615. The OpenOCD server accepts remote commands in several syntaxes.
  1616. Each syntax uses a different TCP/IP port, which you may specify
  1617. only during configuration (before those ports are opened).
  1618. For reasons including security, you may wish to prevent remote
  1619. access using one or more of these ports.
  1620. In such cases, just specify the relevant port number as zero.
  1621. If you disable all access through TCP/IP, you will need to
  1622. use the command line @option{-pipe} option.
  1623. @deffn {Command} gdb_port [number]
  1624. @cindex GDB server
  1625. Normally gdb listens to a TCP/IP port, but GDB can also
  1626. communicate via pipes(stdin/out or named pipes). The name
  1627. "gdb_port" stuck because it covers probably more than 90% of

  1629. No arguments reports GDB port. "pipe" means listen to stdin
  1630. output to stdout, an integer is base port number, "disable"
  1631. disables the gdb server.
  1632. When using "pipe", also use log_output to redirect the log
  1633. output to a file so as not to flood the stdin/out pipes.
  1634. The -p/--pipe option is deprecated and a warning is printed
  1635. as it is equivalent to passing in -c "gdb_port pipe; log_output openocd.log".
  1636. Any other string is interpreted as named pipe to listen to.
  1637. Output pipe is the same name as input pipe, but with 'o' appended,
  1638. e.g. /var/gdb, /var/gdbo.
  1639. The GDB port for the first target will be the base port, the
  1640. second target will listen on gdb_port + 1, and so on.

  1697. @section Event Polling
  1698. Hardware debuggers are parts of asynchronous systems,
  1699. where significant events can happen at any time.
  1700. The OpenOCD server needs to detect some of these events,
  1701. so it can report them to through TCL command line
  1702. or to GDB.
  1703. Examples of such events include:
  1704. @itemize
  1705. @item One of the targets can stop running ... maybe it triggers
  1706. a code breakpoint or data watchpoint, or halts itself.
  1707. @item Messages may be sent over ``debug message'' channels ... many
  1708. targets support such messages sent over JTAG,
  1709. for receipt by the person debugging or tools.
  1710. @item Loss of power ... some adapters can detect these events.
  1711. @item Resets not issued through JTAG ... such reset sources
  1712. can include button presses or other system hardware, sometimes
  1713. including the target itself (perhaps through a watchdog).
  1714. @item Debug instrumentation sometimes supports event triggering
  1715. such as ``trace buffer full'' (so it can quickly be emptied)
  1716. or other signals (to correlate with code behavior).
  1717. @end itemize
  1718. None of those events are signaled through standard JTAG signals.
  1719. However, most conventions for JTAG connectors include voltage
  1720. level and system reset (SRST) signal detection.
  1721. Some connectors also include instrumentation signals, which
  1722. can imply events when those signals are inputs.
  1723. In general, OpenOCD needs to periodically check for those events,
  1724. either by looking at the status of signals on the JTAG connector
  1725. or by sending synchronous ``tell me your status'' JTAG requests
  1726. to the various active targets.
  1727. There is a command to manage and monitor that polling,
  1728. which is normally done in the background.
  1729. @deffn Command poll [@option{on}|@option{off}]
  1730. Poll the current target for its current state.
  1731. (Also, @pxref{target curstate}.)
  1732. If that target is in debug mode, architecture
  1733. specific information about the current state is printed.
  1734. An optional parameter
  1735. allows background polling to be enabled and disabled.
  1736. You could use this from the TCL command shell, or
  1737. from GDB using @command{monitor poll} command.
  1738. Leave background polling enabled while you're using GDB.
  1739. @example
  1740. > poll
  1741. background polling: on
  1742. target state: halted
  1743. target halted in ARM state due to debug-request, \

  1753. @cindex interface config file
  1754. Correctly installing OpenOCD includes making your operating system give
  1755. OpenOCD access to debug adapters. Once that has been done, Tcl commands
  1756. are used to select which one is used, and to configure how it is used.
  1757. @quotation Note
  1758. Because OpenOCD started out with a focus purely on JTAG, you may find
  1759. places where it wrongly presumes JTAG is the only transport protocol
  1760. in use. Be aware that recent versions of OpenOCD are removing that
  1761. limitation. JTAG remains more functional than most other transports.
  1762. Other transports do not support boundary scan operations, or may be
  1763. specific to a given chip vendor. Some might be usable only for
  1764. programming flash memory, instead of also for debugging.
  1765. @end quotation
  1766. Debug Adapters/Interfaces/Dongles are normally configured
  1767. through commands in an interface configuration
  1768. file which is sourced by your @file{openocd.cfg} file, or
  1769. through a command line @option{-f interface/....cfg} option.
  1770. @example
  1771. source [find interface/olimex-jtag-tiny.cfg]
  1772. @end example
  1773. These commands tell
  1774. OpenOCD what type of JTAG adapter you have, and how to talk to it.
  1775. A few cases are so simple that you only need to say what driver to use:
  1776. @example
  1777. # jlink interface
  1778. interface jlink
  1779. @end example
  1780. Most adapters need a bit more configuration than that.
  1781. @section Interface Configuration
  1782. The interface command tells OpenOCD what type of debug adapter you are
  1783. using. Depending on the type of adapter, you may need to use one or
  1784. more additional commands to further identify or configure the adapter.

  2025. If a parameter is provided, first switch to use that port.
  2026. This is a write-once setting.
  2027. When using PPDEV to access the parallel port, use the number of the parallel port:
  2028. @option{parport_port 0} (the default). If @option{parport_port 0x378} is specified
  2029. you may encounter a problem.

  2031. @deffn Command {parport_toggling_time} [nanoseconds]
  2032. Displays how many nanoseconds the hardware needs to toggle TCK;
  2033. the parport driver uses this value to obey the
  2034. @command{adapter_khz} configuration.
  2035. When the optional @var{nanoseconds} parameter is given,
  2036. that setting is changed before displaying the current value.
  2037. The default setting should work reasonably well on commodity PC hardware.
  2038. However, you may want to calibrate for your specific hardware.
  2039. @quotation Tip
  2040. To measure the toggling time with a logic analyzer or a digital storage
  2041. oscilloscope, follow the procedure below:
  2042. @example
  2043. > parport_toggling_time 1000
  2044. > adapter_khz 500
  2045. @end example
  2046. This sets the maximum JTAG clock speed of the hardware, but
  2047. the actual speed probably deviates from the requested 500 kHz.
  2048. Now, measure the time between the two closest spaced TCK transitions.
  2049. You can use @command{runtest 1000} or something similar to generate a
  2050. large set of samples.
  2051. Update the setting to match your measurement:
  2052. @example
  2053. > parport_toggling_time <measured nanoseconds>
  2054. @end example
  2055. Now the clock speed will be a better match for @command{adapter_khz rate}
  2056. commands given in OpenOCD scripts and event handlers.
  2057. You can do something similar with many digital multimeters, but note
  2058. that you'll probably need to run the clock continuously for several
  2059. seconds before it decides what clock rate to show. Adjust the
  2060. toggling time up or down until the measured clock rate is a good
  2061. match for the adapter_khz rate you specified; be conservative.

  2126. JTAG transports expose a chain of one or more Test Access Points (TAPs),
  2127. each of which must be explicitly declared.

  2151. @cindex Serial Peripheral Interface
  2152. The Serial Peripheral Interface (SPI) is a general purpose transport
  2153. which uses four wire signaling. Some processors use it as part of a
  2154. solution for flash programming.
  2155. @anchor{JTAG Speed}
  2156. @section JTAG Speed
  2157. JTAG clock setup is part of system setup.
  2158. It @emph{does not belong with interface setup} since any interface
  2159. only knows a few of the constraints for the JTAG clock speed.
  2160. Sometimes the JTAG speed is
  2161. changed during the target initialization process: (1) slow at
  2162. reset, (2) program the CPU clocks, (3) run fast.
  2163. Both the "slow" and "fast" clock rates are functions of the
  2164. oscillators used, the chip, the board design, and sometimes
  2165. power management software that may be active.
  2166. The speed used during reset, and the scan chain verification which
  2167. follows reset, can be adjusted using a @code{reset-start}
  2168. target event handler.
  2169. It can then be reconfigured to a faster speed by a
  2170. @code{reset-init} target event handler after it reprograms those
  2171. CPU clocks, or manually (if something else, such as a boot loader,
  2172. sets up those clocks).
  2173. @xref{Target Events}.
  2174. When the initial low JTAG speed is a chip characteristic, perhaps
  2175. because of a required oscillator speed, provide such a handler
  2176. in the target config file.
  2177. When that speed is a function of a board-specific characteristic
  2178. such as which speed oscillator is used, it belongs in the board
  2179. config file instead.
  2180. In both cases it's safest to also set the initial JTAG clock rate
  2181. to that same slow speed, so that OpenOCD never starts up using a
  2182. clock speed that's faster than the scan chain can support.
  2183. @example
  2184. jtag_rclk 3000
  2185. $_TARGET.cpu configure -event reset-start @{ jtag_rclk 3000 @}
  2186. @end example
  2187. If your system supports adaptive clocking (RTCK), configuring
  2188. JTAG to use that is probably the most robust approach.
  2189. However, it introduces delays to synchronize clocks; so it
  2190. may not be the fastest solution.
  2191. @b{NOTE:} Script writers should consider using @command{jtag_rclk}
  2192. instead of @command{adapter_khz}, but only for (ARM) cores and boards
  2193. which support adaptive clocking.
  2194. @deffn {Command} adapter_khz max_speed_kHz
  2195. A non-zero speed is in KHZ. Hence: 3000 is 3mhz.
  2196. JTAG interfaces usually support a limited number of
  2197. speeds. The speed actually used won't be faster
  2198. than the speed specified.
  2199. Chip data sheets generally include a top JTAG clock rate.
  2200. The actual rate is often a function of a CPU core clock,
  2201. and is normally less than that peak rate.
  2202. For example, most ARM cores accept at most one sixth of the CPU clock.
  2203. Speed 0 (khz) selects RTCK method.
  2204. @xref{FAQ RTCK}.
  2205. If your system uses RTCK, you won't need to change the
  2206. JTAG clocking after setup.
  2207. Not all interfaces, boards, or targets support ``rtck''.
  2208. If the interface device can not
  2209. support it, an error is returned when you try to use RTCK.

  2224. @cindex Reset Configuration
  2225. Every system configuration may require a different reset
  2226. configuration. This can also be quite confusing.
  2227. Resets also interact with @var{reset-init} event handlers,
  2228. which do things like setting up clocks and DRAM, and
  2229. JTAG clock rates. (@xref{JTAG Speed}.)
  2230. They can also interact with JTAG routers.
  2231. Please see the various board files for examples.
  2232. @quotation Note
  2233. To maintainers and integrators:
  2234. Reset configuration touches several things at once.
  2235. Normally the board configuration file
  2236. should define it and assume that the JTAG adapter supports
  2237. everything that's wired up to the board's JTAG connector.
  2238. However, the target configuration file could also make note
  2239. of something the silicon vendor has done inside the chip,
  2240. which will be true for most (or all) boards using that chip.
  2241. And when the JTAG adapter doesn't support everything, the
  2242. user configuration file will need to override parts of
  2243. the reset configuration provided by other files.
  2244. @end quotation
  2245. @section Types of Reset
  2246. There are many kinds of reset possible through JTAG, but
  2247. they may not all work with a given board and adapter.

  2249. @itemize @bullet
  2250. @item
  2251. @emph{System Reset} ... the @emph{SRST} hardware signal
  2252. resets all chips connected to the JTAG adapter, such as processors,
  2253. power management chips, and I/O controllers. Normally resets triggered
  2254. with this signal behave exactly like pressing a RESET button.
  2255. @item
  2256. @emph{JTAG TAP Reset} ... the @emph{TRST} hardware signal resets
  2257. just the TAP controllers connected to the JTAG adapter.
  2258. Such resets should not be visible to the rest of the system; resetting a
  2259. device's TAP controller just puts that controller into a known state.
  2260. @item
  2261. @emph{Emulation Reset} ... many devices can be reset through JTAG
  2262. commands. These resets are often distinguishable from system
  2263. resets, either explicitly (a "reset reason" register says so)
  2264. or implicitly (not all parts of the chip get reset).
  2265. @item
  2266. @emph{Other Resets} ... system-on-chip devices often support
  2267. several other types of reset.
  2268. You may need to arrange that a watchdog timer stops
  2269. while debugging, preventing a watchdog reset.
  2270. There may be individual module resets.
  2271. @end itemize
  2272. In the best case, OpenOCD can hold SRST, then reset
  2273. the TAPs via TRST and send commands through JTAG to halt the
  2274. CPU at the reset vector before the 1st instruction is executed.
  2275. Then when it finally releases the SRST signal, the system is
  2276. halted under debugger control before any code has executed.
  2277. This is the behavior required to support the @command{reset halt}
  2278. and @command{reset init} commands; after @command{reset init} a
  2279. board-specific script might do things like setting up DRAM.
  2280. (@xref{Reset Command}.)
  2281. @anchor{SRST and TRST Issues}
  2282. @section SRST and TRST Issues
  2283. Because SRST and TRST are hardware signals, they can have a
  2284. variety of system-specific constraints. Some of the most
  2285. common issues are:
  2286. @itemize @bullet
  2287. @item @emph{Signal not available} ... Some boards don't wire
  2288. SRST or TRST to the JTAG connector. Some JTAG adapters don't
  2289. support such signals even if they are wired up.
  2290. Use the @command{reset_config} @var{signals} options to say
  2291. when either of those signals is not connected.
  2292. When SRST is not available, your code might not be able to rely
  2293. on controllers having been fully reset during code startup.
  2294. Missing TRST is not a problem, since JTAG-level resets can
  2295. be triggered using with TMS signaling.
  2296. @item @emph{Signals shorted} ... Sometimes a chip, board, or
  2297. adapter will connect SRST to TRST, instead of keeping them separate.
  2298. Use the @command{reset_config} @var{combination} options to say
  2299. when those signals aren't properly independent.
  2300. @item @emph{Timing} ... Reset circuitry like a resistor/capacitor
  2301. delay circuit, reset supervisor, or on-chip features can extend
  2302. the effect of a JTAG adapter's reset for some time after the adapter
  2303. stops issuing the reset. For example, there may be chip or board
  2304. requirements that all reset pulses last for at least a
  2305. certain amount of time; and reset buttons commonly have
  2306. hardware debouncing.
  2307. Use the @command{adapter_nsrst_delay} and @command{jtag_ntrst_delay}
  2308. commands to say when extra delays are needed.
  2309. @item @emph{Drive type} ... Reset lines often have a pullup
  2310. resistor, letting the JTAG interface treat them as open-drain
  2311. signals. But that's not a requirement, so the adapter may need
  2312. to use push/pull output drivers.
  2313. Also, with weak pullups it may be advisable to drive
  2314. signals to both levels (push/pull) to minimize rise times.
  2315. Use the @command{reset_config} @var{trst_type} and
  2316. @var{srst_type} parameters to say how to drive reset signals.
  2317. @item @emph{Special initialization} ... Targets sometimes need
  2318. special JTAG initialization sequences to handle chip-specific
  2319. issues (not limited to errata).
  2320. For example, certain JTAG commands might need to be issued while
  2321. the system as a whole is in a reset state (SRST active)
  2322. but the JTAG scan chain is usable (TRST inactive).
  2323. Many systems treat combined assertion of SRST and TRST as a
  2324. trigger for a harder reset than SRST alone.
  2325. Such custom reset handling is discussed later in this chapter.
  2326. @end itemize
  2327. There can also be other issues.
  2328. Some devices don't fully conform to the JTAG specifications.
  2329. Trivial system-specific differences are common, such as
  2330. SRST and TRST using slightly different names.
  2331. There are also vendors who distribute key JTAG documentation for
  2332. their chips only to developers who have signed a Non-Disclosure
  2333. Agreement (NDA).
  2334. Sometimes there are chip-specific extensions like a requirement to use
  2335. the normally-optional TRST signal (precluding use of JTAG adapters which
  2336. don't pass TRST through), or needing extra steps to complete a TAP reset.
  2337. In short, SRST and especially TRST handling may be very finicky,
  2338. needing to cope with both architecture and board specific constraints.

  2364. Information earlier in this section describes the kind of problems
  2365. the command is intended to address (@pxref{SRST and TRST Issues}).
  2366. As a rule this command belongs only in board config files,
  2367. describing issues like @emph{board doesn't connect TRST};
  2368. or in user config files, addressing limitations derived

  2374. @var{gates},
  2375. @var{trst_type},
  2376. and @var{srst_type} -- may be specified at a time.
  2377. If you don't provide a new value for a given type, its previous
  2378. value (perhaps the default) is unchanged.
  2379. For example, this means that you don't need to say anything at all about

  2407. JTAG may be unvailable during reset.
  2408. @option{srst_gates_jtag} (default)
  2409. indicates that asserting SRST gates the
  2410. JTAG clock. This means that no communication can happen on JTAG
  2411. while SRST is asserted.

  2437. mechanisms provided by chip and board vendors.
  2438. The commands shown in the previous section give standard parameters.
  2439. There are also @emph{event handlers} associated with TAPs or Targets.
  2440. Those handlers are Tcl procedures you can provide, which are invoked
  2441. at particular points in the reset sequence.
  2442. @emph{When SRST is not an option} you must set
  2443. up a @code{reset-assert} event handler for your target.
  2444. For example, some JTAG adapters don't include the SRST signal;
  2445. and some boards have multiple targets, and you won't always
  2446. want to reset everything at once.
  2447. After configuring those mechanisms, you might still
  2448. find your board doesn't start up or reset correctly.
  2449. For example, maybe it needs a slightly different sequence
  2450. of SRST and/or TRST manipulations, because of quirks that
  2451. the @command{reset_config} mechanism doesn't address;
  2452. or asserting both might trigger a stronger reset, which
  2453. needs special attention.
  2454. Experiment with lower level operations, such as @command{jtag_reset}
  2455. and the @command{jtag arp_*} operations shown here,
  2456. to find a sequence of operations that works.
  2457. @xref{JTAG Commands}.
  2458. When you find a working sequence, it can be used to override
  2459. @command{jtag_init}, which fires during OpenOCD startup
  2460. (@pxref{Configuration Stage});
  2461. or @command{init_reset}, which fires during reset processing.
  2462. You might also want to provide some project-specific reset
  2463. schemes. For example, on a multi-target board the standard
  2464. @command{reset} command would reset all targets, but you
  2465. may need the ability to reset only one target at time and
  2466. thus want to avoid using the board-wide SRST signal.
  2467. @deffn {Overridable Procedure} init_reset mode
  2468. This is invoked near the beginning of the @command{reset} command,
  2469. usually to provide as much of a cold (power-up) reset as practical.
  2470. By default it is also invoked from @command{jtag_init} if
  2471. the scan chain does not respond to pure JTAG operations.
  2472. The @var{mode} parameter is the parameter given to the
  2473. low level reset command (@option{halt},
  2474. @option{init}, or @option{run}), @option{setup},
  2475. or potentially some other value.
  2476. The default implementation just invokes @command{jtag arp_init-reset}.
  2477. Replacements will normally build on low level JTAG
  2478. operations such as @command{jtag_reset}.
  2479. Operations here must not address individual TAPs
  2480. (or their associated targets)
  2481. until the JTAG scan chain has first been verified to work.
  2482. Implementations must have verified the JTAG scan chain before
  2483. they return.
  2484. This is done by calling @command{jtag arp_init}
  2485. (or @command{jtag arp_init-reset}).
  2486. @end deffn
  2487. @deffn Command {jtag arp_init}
  2488. This validates the scan chain using just the four
  2489. standard JTAG signals (TMS, TCK, TDI, TDO).
  2490. It starts by issuing a JTAG-only reset.
  2491. Then it performs checks to verify that the scan chain configuration
  2492. matches the TAPs it can observe.
  2493. Those checks include checking IDCODE values for each active TAP,
  2494. and verifying the length of their instruction registers using
  2495. TAP @code{-ircapture} and @code{-irmask} values.
  2496. If these tests all pass, TAP @code{setup} events are
  2497. issued to all TAPs with handlers for that event.
  2498. @end deffn
  2499. @deffn Command {jtag arp_init-reset}
  2500. This uses TRST and SRST to try resetting
  2501. everything on the JTAG scan chain
  2502. (and anything else connected to SRST).
  2503. It then invokes the logic of @command{jtag arp_init}.
  2504. @end deffn
  2505. @node TAP Declaration
  2506. @chapter TAP Declaration
  2507. @cindex TAP declaration
  2508. @cindex TAP configuration
  2509. @emph{Test Access Ports} (TAPs) are the core of JTAG.
  2510. TAPs serve many roles, including:
  2511. @itemize @bullet
  2512. @item @b{Debug Target} A CPU TAP can be used as a GDB debug target
  2513. @item @b{Flash Programing} Some chips program the flash directly via JTAG.
  2514. Others do it indirectly, making a CPU do it.
  2515. @item @b{Program Download} Using the same CPU support GDB uses,
  2516. you can initialize a DRAM controller, download code to DRAM, and then
  2517. start running that code.
  2518. @item @b{Boundary Scan} Most chips support boundary scan, which
  2519. helps test for board assembly problems like solder bridges
  2520. and missing connections
  2521. @end itemize
  2522. OpenOCD must know about the active TAPs on your board(s).
  2523. Setting up the TAPs is the core task of your configuration files.
  2524. Once those TAPs are set up, you can pass their names to code
  2525. which sets up CPUs and exports them as GDB targets,
  2526. probes flash memory, performs low-level JTAG operations, and more.
  2527. @section Scan Chains
  2528. @cindex scan chain
  2529. TAPs are part of a hardware @dfn{scan chain},
  2530. which is daisy chain of TAPs.
  2531. They also need to be added to
  2532. OpenOCD's software mirror of that hardware list,
  2533. giving each member a name and associating other data with it.
  2534. Simple scan chains, with a single TAP, are common in
  2535. systems with a single microcontroller or microprocessor.
  2536. More complex chips may have several TAPs internally.
  2537. Very complex scan chains might have a dozen or more TAPs:
  2538. several in one chip, more in the next, and connecting
  2539. to other boards with their own chips and TAPs.
  2540. You can display the list with the @command{scan_chain} command.
  2541. (Don't confuse this with the list displayed by the @command{targets}
  2542. command, presented in the next chapter.
  2543. That only displays TAPs for CPUs which are configured as
  2544. debugging targets.)
  2545. Here's what the scan chain might look like for a chip more than one TAP:
  2546. @verbatim
  2547. TapName Enabled IdCode Expected IrLen IrCap IrMask
  2548. -- ------------------ ------- ---------- ---------- ----- ----- ------
  2549. 0 omap5912.dsp Y 0x03df1d81 0x03df1d81 38 0x01 0x03
  2550. 1 omap5912.arm Y 0x0692602f 0x0692602f 4 0x01 0x0f
  2551. 2 omap5912.unknown Y 0x00000000 0x00000000 8 0x01 0x03
  2552. @end verbatim
  2553. OpenOCD can detect some of that information, but not all
  2554. of it. @xref{Autoprobing}.
  2555. Unfortunately those TAPs can't always be autoconfigured,
  2556. because not all devices provide good support for that.
  2557. JTAG doesn't require supporting IDCODE instructions, and
  2558. chips with JTAG routers may not link TAPs into the chain
  2559. until they are told to do so.
  2560. The configuration mechanism currently supported by OpenOCD
  2561. requires explicit configuration of all TAP devices using
  2562. @command{jtag newtap} commands, as detailed later in this chapter.
  2563. A command like this would declare one tap and name it @code{chip1.cpu}:
  2564. @example
  2565. jtag newtap chip1 cpu -irlen 4 -expected-id 0x3ba00477
  2566. @end example
  2567. Each target configuration file lists the TAPs provided
  2568. by a given chip.
  2569. Board configuration files combine all the targets on a board,
  2570. and so forth.
  2571. Note that @emph{the order in which TAPs are declared is very important.}
  2572. It must match the order in the JTAG scan chain, both inside
  2573. a single chip and between them.
  2574. @xref{FAQ TAP Order}.
  2575. For example, the ST Microsystems STR912 chip has
  2576. three separate TAPs@footnote{See the ST
  2577. document titled: @emph{STR91xFAxxx, Section 3.15 Jtag Interface, Page:
  2578. 28/102, Figure 3: JTAG chaining inside the STR91xFA}.
  2579. @url{http://eu.st.com/stonline/products/literature/ds/13495.pdf}}.
  2580. To configure those taps, @file{target/str912.cfg}
  2581. includes commands something like this:
  2582. @example
  2583. jtag newtap str912 flash ... params ...
  2584. jtag newtap str912 cpu ... params ...
  2585. jtag newtap str912 bs ... params ...
  2586. @end example
  2587. Actual config files use a variable instead of literals like
  2588. @option{str912}, to support more than one chip of each type.
  2589. @xref{Config File Guidelines}.
  2590. @deffn Command {jtag names}
  2591. Returns the names of all current TAPs in the scan chain.
  2592. Use @command{jtag cget} or @command{jtag tapisenabled}
  2593. to examine attributes and state of each TAP.
  2594. @example
  2595. foreach t [jtag names] @{
  2596. puts [format "TAP: %s\n" $t]
  2597. @}
  2598. @end example
  2599. @end deffn
  2600. @deffn Command {scan_chain}
  2601. Displays the TAPs in the scan chain configuration,
  2602. and their status.
  2603. The set of TAPs listed by this command is fixed by
  2604. exiting the OpenOCD configuration stage,
  2605. but systems with a JTAG router can
  2606. enable or disable TAPs dynamically.
  2607. @end deffn
  2608. @c FIXME! "jtag cget" should be able to return all TAP
  2609. @c attributes, like "$target_name cget" does for targets.
  2610. @c Probably want "jtag eventlist", and a "tap-reset" event
  2611. @c (on entry to RESET state).
  2612. @section TAP Names
  2613. @cindex dotted name
  2614. When TAP objects are declared with @command{jtag newtap},
  2615. a @dfn{dotted.name} is created for the TAP, combining the
  2616. name of a module (usually a chip) and a label for the TAP.
  2617. For example: @code{xilinx.tap}, @code{str912.flash},
  2618. @code{omap3530.jrc}, @code{dm6446.dsp}, or @code{stm32.cpu}.
  2619. Many other commands use that dotted.name to manipulate or
  2620. refer to the TAP. For example, CPU configuration uses the
  2621. name, as does declaration of NAND or NOR flash banks.
  2622. The components of a dotted name should follow ``C'' symbol
  2623. name rules: start with an alphabetic character, then numbers
  2624. and underscores are OK; while others (including dots!) are not.
  2625. @quotation Tip
  2626. In older code, JTAG TAPs were numbered from 0..N.
  2627. This feature is still present.
  2628. However its use is highly discouraged, and
  2629. should not be relied on; it will be removed by mid-2010.
  2630. Update all of your scripts to use TAP names rather than numbers,
  2631. by paying attention to the runtime warnings they trigger.
  2632. Using TAP numbers in target configuration scripts prevents
  2633. reusing those scripts on boards with multiple targets.
  2634. @end quotation
  2635. @section TAP Declaration Commands

  2637. @anchor{jtag newtap}
  2638. @deffn Command {jtag newtap} chipname tapname configparams...
  2639. Declares a new TAP with the dotted name @var{chipname}.@var{tapname},
  2640. and configured according to the various @var{configparams}.
  2641. The @var{chipname} is a symbolic name for the chip.
  2642. Conventionally target config files use @code{$_CHIPNAME},
  2643. defaulting to the model name given by the chip vendor but
  2644. overridable.
  2645. @cindex TAP naming convention
  2646. The @var{tapname} reflects the role of that TAP,
  2647. and should follow this convention:
  2648. @itemize @bullet
  2649. @item @code{bs} -- For boundary scan if this is a seperate TAP;
  2650. @item @code{cpu} -- The main CPU of the chip, alternatively
  2651. @code{arm} and @code{dsp} on chips with both ARM and DSP CPUs,
  2652. @code{arm1} and @code{arm2} on chips two ARMs, and so forth;
  2653. @item @code{etb} -- For an embedded trace buffer (example: an ARM ETB11);
  2654. @item @code{flash} -- If the chip has a flash TAP, like the str912;
  2655. @item @code{jrc} -- For JTAG route controller (example: the ICEpick modules
  2656. on many Texas Instruments chips, like the OMAP3530 on Beagleboards);
  2657. @item @code{tap} -- Should be used only FPGA or CPLD like devices
  2658. with a single TAP;
  2659. @item @code{unknownN} -- If you have no idea what the TAP is for (N is a number);
  2660. @item @emph{when in doubt} -- Use the chip maker's name in their data sheet.
  2661. For example, the Freescale IMX31 has a SDMA (Smart DMA) with
  2662. a JTAG TAP; that TAP should be named @code{sdma}.
  2663. @end itemize
  2664. Every TAP requires at least the following @var{configparams}:
  2665. @itemize @bullet
  2666. @item @code{-irlen} @var{NUMBER}
  2667. @*The length in bits of the
  2668. instruction register, such as 4 or 5 bits.
  2669. @end itemize
  2670. A TAP may also provide optional @var{configparams}:
  2671. @itemize @bullet
  2672. @item @code{-disable} (or @code{-enable})
  2673. @*Use the @code{-disable} parameter to flag a TAP which is not
  2674. linked in to the scan chain after a reset using either TRST
  2675. or the JTAG state machine's @sc{reset} state.
  2676. You may use @code{-enable} to highlight the default state
  2677. (the TAP is linked in).
  2678. @xref{Enabling and Disabling TAPs}.
  2679. @item @code{-expected-id} @var{number}
  2680. @*A non-zero @var{number} represents a 32-bit IDCODE
  2681. which you expect to find when the scan chain is examined.
  2682. These codes are not required by all JTAG devices.
  2683. @emph{Repeat the option} as many times as required if more than one
  2684. ID code could appear (for example, multiple versions).
  2685. Specify @var{number} as zero to suppress warnings about IDCODE
  2686. values that were found but not included in the list.
  2687. Provide this value if at all possible, since it lets OpenOCD
  2688. tell when the scan chain it sees isn't right. These values
  2689. are provided in vendors' chip documentation, usually a technical
  2690. reference manual. Sometimes you may need to probe the JTAG
  2691. hardware to find these values.
  2692. @xref{Autoprobing}.
  2693. @item @code{-ignore-version}
  2694. @*Specify this to ignore the JTAG version field in the @code{-expected-id}
  2695. option. When vendors put out multiple versions of a chip, or use the same
  2696. JTAG-level ID for several largely-compatible chips, it may be more practical
  2697. to ignore the version field than to update config files to handle all of
  2698. the various chip IDs.
  2699. @item @code{-ircapture} @var{NUMBER}
  2700. @*The bit pattern loaded by the TAP into the JTAG shift register
  2701. on entry to the @sc{ircapture} state, such as 0x01.
  2702. JTAG requires the two LSBs of this value to be 01.
  2703. By default, @code{-ircapture} and @code{-irmask} are set
  2704. up to verify that two-bit value. You may provide
  2705. additional bits, if you know them, or indicate that
  2706. a TAP doesn't conform to the JTAG specification.
  2707. @item @code{-irmask} @var{NUMBER}
  2708. @*A mask used with @code{-ircapture}
  2709. to verify that instruction scans work correctly.
  2710. Such scans are not used by OpenOCD except to verify that
  2711. there seems to be no problems with JTAG scan chain operations.

  2729. @cindex TAP events
  2730. OpenOCD includes two event mechanisms.
  2731. The one presented here applies to all JTAG TAPs.
  2732. The other applies to debugger targets,
  2733. which are associated with certain TAPs.
  2734. The TAP events currently defined are:
  2735. @itemize @bullet
  2736. @item @b{post-reset}
  2737. @* The TAP has just completed a JTAG reset.
  2738. The tap may still be in the JTAG @sc{reset} state.
  2739. Handlers for these events might perform initialization sequences
  2740. such as issuing TCK cycles, TMS sequences to ensure
  2741. exit from the ARM SWD mode, and more.
  2742. Because the scan chain has not yet been verified, handlers for these events
  2743. @emph{should not issue commands which scan the JTAG IR or DR registers}
  2744. of any particular target.
  2745. @b{NOTE:} As this is written (September 2009), nothing prevents such access.
  2746. @item @b{setup}
  2747. @* The scan chain has been reset and verified.
  2748. This handler may enable TAPs as needed.
  2749. @item @b{tap-disable}
  2750. @* The TAP needs to be disabled. This handler should
  2751. implement @command{jtag tapdisable}
  2752. by issuing the relevant JTAG commands.
  2753. @item @b{tap-enable}
  2754. @* The TAP needs to be enabled. This handler should
  2755. implement @command{jtag tapenable}
  2756. by issuing the relevant JTAG commands.
  2757. @end itemize
  2758. If you need some action after each JTAG reset, which isn't actually
  2759. specific to any TAP (since you can't yet trust the scan chain's
  2760. contents to be accurate), you might:
  2761. @example
  2762. jtag configure CHIP.jrc -event post-reset @{
  2763. echo "JTAG Reset done"
  2764. ... non-scan jtag operations to be done after reset
  2765. @}
  2766. @end example
  2767. @anchor{Enabling and Disabling TAPs}
  2768. @section Enabling and Disabling TAPs
  2769. @cindex JTAG Route Controller
  2770. @cindex jrc
  2771. In some systems, a @dfn{JTAG Route Controller} (JRC)
  2772. is used to enable and/or disable specific JTAG TAPs.
  2773. Many ARM based chips from Texas Instruments include
  2774. an ``ICEpick'' module, which is a JRC.
  2775. Such chips include DaVinci and OMAP3 processors.
  2776. A given TAP may not be visible until the JRC has been
  2777. told to link it into the scan chain; and if the JRC
  2778. has been told to unlink that TAP, it will no longer
  2779. be visible.
  2780. Such routers address problems that JTAG ``bypass mode''
  2781. ignores, such as:
  2782. @itemize
  2783. @item The scan chain can only go as fast as its slowest TAP.
  2784. @item Having many TAPs slows instruction scans, since all
  2785. TAPs receive new instructions.
  2786. @item TAPs in the scan chain must be powered up, which wastes
  2787. power and prevents debugging some power management mechanisms.
  2788. @end itemize
  2789. The IEEE 1149.1 JTAG standard has no concept of a ``disabled'' tap,
  2790. as implied by the existence of JTAG routers.
  2791. However, the upcoming IEEE 1149.7 framework (layered on top of JTAG)
  2792. does include a kind of JTAG router functionality.
  2793. @c (a) currently the event handlers don't seem to be able to
  2794. @c fail in a way that could lead to no-change-of-state.
  2795. In OpenOCD, tap enabling/disabling is invoked by the Tcl commands
  2796. shown below, and is implemented using TAP event handlers.
  2797. So for example, when defining a TAP for a CPU connected to
  2798. a JTAG router, your @file{target.cfg} file
  2799. should define TAP event handlers using
  2800. code that looks something like this:
  2801. @example
  2802. jtag configure CHIP.cpu -event tap-enable @{
  2803. ... jtag operations using CHIP.jrc
  2804. @}
  2805. jtag configure CHIP.cpu -event tap-disable @{
  2806. ... jtag operations using CHIP.jrc
  2807. @}
  2808. @end example
  2809. Then you might want that CPU's TAP enabled almost all the time:
  2810. @example
  2811. jtag configure $CHIP.jrc -event setup "jtag tapenable $CHIP.cpu"
  2812. @end example
  2813. Note how that particular setup event handler declaration
  2814. uses quotes to evaluate @code{$CHIP} when the event is configured.
  2815. Using brackets @{ @} would cause it to be evaluated later,
  2816. at runtime, when it might have a different value.
  2817. @deffn Command {jtag tapdisable} dotted.name
  2818. If necessary, disables the tap
  2819. by sending it a @option{tap-disable} event.
  2820. Returns the string "1" if the tap
  2821. specified by @var{dotted.name} is enabled,
  2822. and "0" if it is disabled.
  2823. @end deffn
  2824. @deffn Command {jtag tapenable} dotted.name
  2825. If necessary, enables the tap
  2826. by sending it a @option{tap-enable} event.
  2827. Returns the string "1" if the tap
  2828. specified by @var{dotted.name} is enabled,
  2829. and "0" if it is disabled.
  2830. @end deffn
  2831. @deffn Command {jtag tapisenabled} dotted.name
  2832. Returns the string "1" if the tap
  2833. specified by @var{dotted.name} is enabled,
  2834. and "0" if it is disabled.
  2835. @quotation Note
  2836. Humans will find the @command{scan_chain} command more helpful

  2843. @cindex JTAG autoprobe
  2844. TAP configuration is the first thing that needs to be done
  2845. after interface and reset configuration. Sometimes it's
  2846. hard finding out what TAPs exist, or how they are identified.
  2847. Vendor documentation is not always easy to find and use.
  2848. To help you get past such problems, OpenOCD has a limited
  2849. @emph{autoprobing} ability to look at the scan chain, doing
  2850. a @dfn{blind interrogation} and then reporting the TAPs it finds.
  2851. To use this mechanism, start the OpenOCD server with only data
  2852. that configures your JTAG interface, and arranges to come up
  2853. with a slow clock (many devices don't support fast JTAG clocks
  2854. right when they come out of reset).
  2855. For example, your @file{openocd.cfg} file might have:
  2856. @example
  2857. source [find interface/olimex-arm-usb-tiny-h.cfg]
  2858. reset_config trst_and_srst
  2859. jtag_rclk 8
  2860. @end example
  2861. When you start the server without any TAPs configured, it will
  2862. attempt to autoconfigure the TAPs. There are two parts to this:
  2863. @enumerate
  2864. @item @emph{TAP discovery} ...
  2865. After a JTAG reset (sometimes a system reset may be needed too),
  2866. each TAP's data registers will hold the contents of either the
  2867. IDCODE or BYPASS register.
  2868. If JTAG communication is working, OpenOCD will see each TAP,
  2869. and report what @option{-expected-id} to use with it.
  2870. @item @emph{IR Length discovery} ...
  2871. Unfortunately JTAG does not provide a reliable way to find out
  2872. the value of the @option{-irlen} parameter to use with a TAP
  2873. that is discovered.
  2874. If OpenOCD can discover the length of a TAP's instruction
  2875. register, it will report it.
  2876. Otherwise you may need to consult vendor documentation, such
  2877. as chip data sheets or BSDL files.
  2878. @end enumerate
  2879. In many cases your board will have a simple scan chain with just
  2880. a single device. Here's what OpenOCD reported with one board
  2881. that's a bit more complex:
  2882. @example
  2883. clock speed 8 kHz
  2884. There are no enabled taps. AUTO PROBING MIGHT NOT WORK!!
  2885. AUTO auto0.tap - use "jtag newtap auto0 tap -expected-id 0x2b900f0f ..."
  2886. AUTO auto1.tap - use "jtag newtap auto1 tap -expected-id 0x07926001 ..."
  2887. AUTO auto2.tap - use "jtag newtap auto2 tap -expected-id 0x0b73b02f ..."
  2888. AUTO auto0.tap - use "... -irlen 4"
  2889. AUTO auto1.tap - use "... -irlen 4"
  2890. AUTO auto2.tap - use "... -irlen 6"
  2891. no gdb ports allocated as no target has been specified
  2892. @end example
  2893. Given that information, you should be able to either find some existing
  2894. config files to use, or create your own. If you create your own, you
  2895. would configure from the bottom up: first a @file{target.cfg} file
  2896. with these TAPs, any targets associated with them, and any on-chip
  2897. resources; then a @file{board.cfg} with off-chip resources, clocking,
  2898. and so forth.
  2899. @node CPU Configuration
  2900. @chapter CPU Configuration
  2901. @cindex GDB target
  2902. This chapter discusses how to set up GDB debug targets for CPUs.
  2903. You can also access these targets without GDB
  2904. (@pxref{Architecture and Core Commands},
  2905. and @ref{Target State handling}) and
  2906. through various kinds of NAND and NOR flash commands.
  2907. If you have multiple CPUs you can have multiple such targets.
  2908. We'll start by looking at how to examine the targets you have,
  2909. then look at how to add one more target and how to configure it.
  2910. @section Target List
  2911. @cindex target, current
  2912. @cindex target, list
  2913. All targets that have been set up are part of a list,
  2914. where each member has a name.
  2915. That name should normally be the same as the TAP name.
  2916. You can display the list with the @command{targets}
  2917. (plural!) command.
  2918. This display often has only one CPU; here's what it might
  2919. look like with more than one:
  2920. @verbatim
  2921. TargetName Type Endian TapName State
  2922. -- ------------------ ---------- ------ ------------------ ------------
  2923. 0* at91rm9200.cpu arm920t little at91rm9200.cpu running
  2924. 1 MyTarget cortex_m3 little mychip.foo tap-disabled
  2925. @end verbatim
  2926. One member of that list is the @dfn{current target}, which
  2927. is implicitly referenced by many commands.
  2928. It's the one marked with a @code{*} near the target name.
  2929. In particular, memory addresses often refer to the address
  2930. space seen by that current target.
  2931. Commands like @command{mdw} (memory display words)
  2932. and @command{flash erase_address} (erase NOR flash blocks)
  2933. are examples; and there are many more.
  2934. Several commands let you examine the list of targets:
  2935. @deffn Command {target count}
  2936. @emph{Note: target numbers are deprecated; don't use them.
  2937. They will be removed shortly after August 2010, including this command.
  2938. Iterate target using @command{target names}, not by counting.}
  2939. Returns the number of targets, @math{N}.
  2940. The highest numbered target is @math{N - 1}.
  2941. @example
  2942. set c [target count]
  2943. for @{ set x 0 @} @{ $x < $c @} @{ incr x @} @{
  2944. # Assuming you have created this function
  2945. print_target_details $x
  2946. @}
  2947. @end example
  2948. @end deffn
  2949. @deffn Command {target current}
  2950. Returns the name of the current target.
  2951. @end deffn
  2952. @deffn Command {target names}
  2953. Lists the names of all current targets in the list.
  2954. @example
  2955. foreach t [target names] @{
  2956. puts [format "Target: %s\n" $t]
  2957. @}
  2958. @end example
  2959. @end deffn
  2960. @deffn Command {target number} number
  2961. @emph{Note: target numbers are deprecated; don't use them.
  2962. They will be removed shortly after August 2010, including this command.}
  2963. The list of targets is numbered starting at zero.
  2964. This command returns the name of the target at index @var{number}.
  2965. @example
  2966. set thename [target number $x]
  2967. puts [format "Target %d is: %s\n" $x $thename]
  2968. @end example
  2969. @end deffn
  2970. @c yep, "target list" would have been better.
  2971. @c plus maybe "target setdefault".
  2972. @deffn Command targets [name]
  2973. @emph{Note: the name of this command is plural. Other target
  2974. command names are singular.}
  2975. With no parameter, this command displays a table of all known
  2976. targets in a user friendly form.
  2977. With a parameter, this command sets the current target to
  2978. the given target with the given @var{name}; this is
  2979. only relevant on boards which have more than one target.
  2980. @end deffn
  2981. @section Target CPU Types and Variants
  2982. @cindex target type
  2983. @cindex CPU type
  2984. @cindex CPU variant
  2985. Each target has a @dfn{CPU type}, as shown in the output of
  2986. the @command{targets} command. You need to specify that type
  2987. when calling @command{target create}.
  2988. The CPU type indicates more than just the instruction set.
  2989. It also indicates how that instruction set is implemented,
  2990. what kind of debug support it integrates,
  2991. whether it has an MMU (and if so, what kind),
  2992. what core-specific commands may be available
  2993. (@pxref{Architecture and Core Commands}),
  2994. and more.
  2995. For some CPU types, OpenOCD also defines @dfn{variants} which
  2996. indicate differences that affect their handling.
  2997. For example, a particular implementation bug might need to be
  2998. worked around in some chip versions.
  2999. It's easy to see what target types are supported,
  3000. since there's a command to list them.
  3001. However, there is currently no way to list what target variants
  3002. are supported (other than by reading the OpenOCD source code).
  3003. @anchor{target types}
  3004. @deffn Command {target types}
  3005. Lists all supported target types.
  3006. At this writing, the supported CPU types and variants are:
  3007. @itemize @bullet
  3008. @item @code{arm11} -- this is a generation of ARMv6 cores
  3009. @item @code{arm720t} -- this is an ARMv4 core with an MMU
  3010. @item @code{arm7tdmi} -- this is an ARMv4 core
  3011. @item @code{arm920t} -- this is an ARMv4 core with an MMU
  3012. @item @code{arm926ejs} -- this is an ARMv5 core with an MMU
  3013. @item @code{arm966e} -- this is an ARMv5 core
  3014. @item @code{arm9tdmi} -- this is an ARMv4 core
  3015. @item @code{avr} -- implements Atmel's 8-bit AVR instruction set.
  3016. (Support for this is preliminary and incomplete.)
  3017. @item @code{cortex_a8} -- this is an ARMv7 core with an MMU
  3018. @item @code{cortex_m3} -- this is an ARMv7 core, supporting only the
  3019. compact Thumb2 instruction set. It supports one variant:
  3020. @itemize @minus
  3021. @item @code{lm3s} ... Use this when debugging older Stellaris LM3S targets.
  3022. This will cause OpenOCD to use a software reset rather than asserting
  3023. SRST, to avoid a issue with clearing the debug registers.
  3024. This is fixed in Fury Rev B, DustDevil Rev B, Tempest; these revisions will
  3025. be detected and the normal reset behaviour used.
  3026. @end itemize
  3027. @item @code{dragonite} -- resembles arm966e
  3028. @item @code{dsp563xx} -- implements Freescale's 24-bit DSP.
  3029. (Support for this is still incomplete.)
  3030. @item @code{fa526} -- resembles arm920 (w/o Thumb)
  3031. @item @code{feroceon} -- resembles arm926
  3032. @item @code{mips_m4k} -- a MIPS core. This supports one variant:
  3033. @item @code{xscale} -- this is actually an architecture,
  3034. not a CPU type. It is based on the ARMv5 architecture.
  3035. There are several variants defined:
  3036. @itemize @minus
  3037. @item @code{ixp42x}, @code{ixp45x}, @code{ixp46x},
  3038. @code{pxa27x} ... instruction register length is 7 bits
  3039. @item @code{pxa250}, @code{pxa255},
  3040. @code{pxa26x} ... instruction register length is 5 bits
  3041. @item @code{pxa3xx} ... instruction register length is 11 bits
  3042. @end itemize
  3043. @end itemize
  3044. @end deffn
  3045. To avoid being confused by the variety of ARM based cores, remember
  3046. this key point: @emph{ARM is a technology licencing company}.
  3047. (See: @url{http://www.arm.com}.)
  3048. The CPU name used by OpenOCD will reflect the CPU design that was
  3049. licenced, not a vendor brand which incorporates that design.
  3050. Name prefixes like arm7, arm9, arm11, and cortex
  3051. reflect design generations;
  3052. while names like ARMv4, ARMv5, ARMv6, and ARMv7
  3053. reflect an architecture version implemented by a CPU design.
  3054. @anchor{Target Configuration}
  3055. @section Target Configuration
  3056. Before creating a ``target'', you must have added its TAP to the scan chain.
  3057. When you've added that TAP, you will have a @code{dotted.name}
  3058. which is used to set up the CPU support.
  3059. The chip-specific configuration file will normally configure its CPU(s)
  3060. right after it adds all of the chip's TAPs to the scan chain.
  3061. Although you can set up a target in one step, it's often clearer if you
  3062. use shorter commands and do it in two steps: create it, then configure
  3063. optional parts.
  3064. All operations on the target after it's created will use a new
  3065. command, created as part of target creation.
  3066. The two main things to configure after target creation are
  3067. a work area, which usually has target-specific defaults even
  3068. if the board setup code overrides them later;
  3069. and event handlers (@pxref{Target Events}), which tend
  3070. to be much more board-specific.
  3071. The key steps you use might look something like this
  3072. @example
  3073. target create MyTarget cortex_m3 -chain-position mychip.cpu
  3074. $MyTarget configure -work-area-phys 0x08000 -work-area-size 8096
  3075. $MyTarget configure -event reset-deassert-pre @{ jtag_rclk 5 @}
  3076. $MyTarget configure -event reset-init @{ myboard_reinit @}
  3077. @end example
  3078. You should specify a working area if you can; typically it uses some
  3079. on-chip SRAM.
  3080. Such a working area can speed up many things, including bulk
  3081. writes to target memory;
  3082. flash operations like checking to see if memory needs to be erased;
  3083. GDB memory checksumming;
  3084. and more.
  3085. @quotation Warning
  3086. On more complex chips, the work area can become
  3087. inaccessible when application code
  3088. (such as an operating system)
  3089. enables or disables the MMU.
  3090. For example, the particular MMU context used to acess the virtual
  3091. address will probably matter ... and that context might not have
  3092. easy access to other addresses needed.
  3093. At this writing, OpenOCD doesn't have much MMU intelligence.
  3094. @end quotation
  3095. It's often very useful to define a @code{reset-init} event handler.
  3096. For systems that are normally used with a boot loader,
  3097. common tasks include updating clocks and initializing memory
  3098. controllers.
  3099. That may be needed to let you write the boot loader into flash,
  3100. in order to ``de-brick'' your board; or to load programs into
  3101. external DDR memory without having run the boot loader.
  3102. @deffn Command {target create} target_name type configparams...
  3103. This command creates a GDB debug target that refers to a specific JTAG tap.
  3104. It enters that target into a list, and creates a new
  3105. command (@command{@var{target_name}}) which is used for various
  3106. purposes including additional configuration.
  3107. @itemize @bullet
  3108. @item @var{target_name} ... is the name of the debug target.
  3109. By convention this should be the same as the @emph{dotted.name}
  3110. of the TAP associated with this target, which must be specified here
  3111. using the @code{-chain-position @var{dotted.name}} configparam.
  3112. This name is also used to create the target object command,
  3113. referred to here as @command{$target_name},
  3114. and in other places the target needs to be identified.
  3115. @item @var{type} ... specifies the target type. @xref{target types}.
  3116. @item @var{configparams} ... all parameters accepted by
  3117. @command{$target_name configure} are permitted.
  3118. If the target is big-endian, set it here with @code{-endian big}.
  3119. If the variant matters, set it here with @code{-variant}.
  3120. You @emph{must} set the @code{-chain-position @var{dotted.name}} here.
  3121. @end itemize
  3122. @end deffn
  3123. @deffn Command {$target_name configure} configparams...
  3124. The options accepted by this command may also be
  3125. specified as parameters to @command{target create}.
  3126. Their values can later be queried one at a time by
  3127. using the @command{$target_name cget} command.
  3128. @emph{Warning:} changing some of these after setup is dangerous.
  3129. For example, moving a target from one TAP to another;
  3130. and changing its endianness or variant.
  3131. @itemize @bullet
  3132. @item @code{-chain-position} @var{dotted.name} -- names the TAP
  3133. used to access this target.
  3134. @item @code{-endian} (@option{big}|@option{little}) -- specifies
  3135. whether the CPU uses big or little endian conventions
  3136. @item @code{-event} @var{event_name} @var{event_body} --
  3137. @xref{Target Events}.
  3138. Note that this updates a list of named event handlers.
  3139. Calling this twice with two different event names assigns
  3140. two different handlers, but calling it twice with the
  3141. same event name assigns only one handler.
  3142. @item @code{-variant} @var{name} -- specifies a variant of the target,
  3143. which OpenOCD needs to know about.
  3144. @item @code{-work-area-backup} (@option{0}|@option{1}) -- says
  3145. whether the work area gets backed up; by default,
  3146. @emph{it is not backed up.}
  3147. When possible, use a working_area that doesn't need to be backed up,
  3148. since performing a backup slows down operations.
  3149. For example, the beginning of an SRAM block is likely to
  3150. be used by most build systems, but the end is often unused.
  3151. @item @code{-work-area-size} @var{size} -- specify work are size,
  3152. in bytes. The same size applies regardless of whether its physical
  3153. or virtual address is being used.
  3154. @item @code{-work-area-phys} @var{address} -- set the work area
  3155. base @var{address} to be used when no MMU is active.
  3156. @item @code{-work-area-virt} @var{address} -- set the work area
  3157. base @var{address} to be used when an MMU is active.
  3158. @emph{Do not specify a value for this except on targets with an MMU.}
  3159. The value should normally correspond to a static mapping for the
  3160. @code{-work-area-phys} address, set up by the current operating system.
  3161. @end itemize
  3162. @end deffn
  3163. @section Other $target_name Commands
  3164. @cindex object command
  3165. The Tcl/Tk language has the concept of object commands,
  3166. and OpenOCD adopts that same model for targets.
  3167. A good Tk example is a on screen button.
  3168. Once a button is created a button
  3169. has a name (a path in Tk terms) and that name is useable as a first
  3170. class command. For example in Tk, one can create a button and later
  3171. configure it like this:
  3172. @example
  3173. # Create
  3174. button .foobar -background red -command @{ foo @}
  3175. # Modify
  3176. .foobar configure -foreground blue
  3177. # Query
  3178. set x [.foobar cget -background]
  3179. # Report
  3180. puts [format "The button is %s" $x]
  3181. @end example
  3182. In OpenOCD's terms, the ``target'' is an object just like a Tcl/Tk
  3183. button, and its object commands are invoked the same way.
  3184. @example
  3185. str912.cpu mww 0x1234 0x42
  3186. omap3530.cpu mww 0x5555 123
  3187. @end example
  3188. The commands supported by OpenOCD target objects are:
  3189. @deffn Command {$target_name arp_examine}
  3190. @deffnx Command {$target_name arp_halt}
  3191. @deffnx Command {$target_name arp_poll}
  3192. @deffnx Command {$target_name arp_reset}
  3193. @deffnx Command {$target_name arp_waitstate}
  3194. Internal OpenOCD scripts (most notably @file{startup.tcl})
  3195. use these to deal with specific reset cases.
  3196. They are not otherwise documented here.
  3197. @end deffn
  3198. @deffn Command {$target_name array2mem} arrayname width address count
  3199. @deffnx Command {$target_name mem2array} arrayname width address count
  3200. These provide an efficient script-oriented interface to memory.
  3201. The @code{array2mem} primitive writes bytes, halfwords, or words;
  3202. while @code{mem2array} reads them.
  3203. In both cases, the TCL side uses an array, and
  3204. the target side uses raw memory.
  3205. The efficiency comes from enabling the use of
  3206. bulk JTAG data transfer operations.
  3207. The script orientation comes from working with data
  3208. values that are packaged for use by TCL scripts;
  3209. @command{mdw} type primitives only print data they retrieve,
  3210. and neither store nor return those values.
  3211. @itemize
  3212. @item @var{arrayname} ... is the name of an array variable
  3213. @item @var{width} ... is 8/16/32 - indicating the memory access size
  3214. @item @var{address} ... is the target memory address
  3215. @item @var{count} ... is the number of elements to process
  3216. @end itemize
  3217. @end deffn
  3218. @deffn Command {$target_name cget} queryparm
  3219. Each configuration parameter accepted by
  3220. @command{$target_name configure}
  3221. can be individually queried, to return its current value.
  3222. The @var{queryparm} is a parameter name
  3223. accepted by that command, such as @code{-work-area-phys}.
  3224. There are a few special cases:
  3225. @itemize @bullet
  3226. @item @code{-event} @var{event_name} -- returns the handler for the
  3227. event named @var{event_name}.
  3228. This is a special case because setting a handler requires
  3229. two parameters.
  3230. @item @code{-type} -- returns the target type.
  3231. This is a special case because this is set using
  3232. @command{target create} and can't be changed
  3233. using @command{$target_name configure}.
  3234. @end itemize
  3235. For example, if you wanted to summarize information about
  3236. all the targets you might use something like this:
  3237. @example
  3238. foreach name [target names] @{
  3239. set y [$name cget -endian]
  3240. set z [$name cget -type]

  3422. @node Flash Commands
  3423. @chapter Flash Commands
  3424. OpenOCD has different commands for NOR and NAND flash;
  3425. the ``flash'' command works with NOR flash, while
  3426. the ``nand'' command works with NAND flash.
  3427. This partially reflects different hardware technologies:
  3428. NOR flash usually supports direct CPU instruction and data bus access,
  3429. while data from a NAND flash must be copied to memory before it can be
  3430. used. (SPI flash must also be copied to memory before use.)
  3431. However, the documentation also uses ``flash'' as a generic term;
  3432. for example, ``Put flash configuration in board-specific files''.
  3433. Flash Steps:
  3434. @enumerate
  3435. @item Configure via the command @command{flash bank}
  3436. @* Do this in a board-specific configuration file,
  3437. passing parameters as needed by the driver.
  3438. @item Operate on the flash via @command{flash subcommand}
  3439. @* Often commands to manipulate the flash are typed by a human, or run
  3440. via a script in some automated way. Common tasks include writing a
  3441. boot loader, operating system, or other data.
  3442. @item GDB Flashing
  3443. @* Flashing via GDB requires the flash be configured via ``flash
  3444. bank'', and the GDB flash features be enabled.
  3445. @xref{GDB Configuration}.
  3446. @end enumerate
  3447. Many CPUs have the ablity to ``boot'' from the first flash bank.
  3448. This means that misprogramming that bank can ``brick'' a system,
  3449. so that it can't boot.
  3450. JTAG tools, like OpenOCD, are often then used to ``de-brick'' the
  3451. board by (re)installing working boot firmware.

  3456. Configures a flash bank which provides persistent storage
  3457. for addresses from @math{base} to @math{base + size - 1}.
  3458. These banks will often be visible to GDB through the target's memory map.

  3510. @cindex flash erasing
  3511. @cindex flash reading
  3512. @cindex flash writing
  3513. @cindex flash programming
  3514. One feature distinguishing NOR flash from NAND or serial flash technologies
  3515. is that for read access, it acts exactly like any other addressible memory.
  3516. This means you can use normal memory read commands like @command{mdw} or
  3517. @command{dump_image} with it, with no special @command{flash} subcommands.
  3518. @xref{Memory access}, and @ref{Image access}.
  3519. Write access works differently. Flash memory normally needs to be erased
  3520. before it's written. Erasing a sector turns all of its bits to ones, and
  3521. writing can turn ones into zeroes. This is why there are special commands
  3522. for interactive erasing and writing, and why GDB needs to know which parts
  3523. of the address space hold NOR flash memory.
  3524. @quotation Note
  3525. Most of these erase and write commands leverage the fact that NOR flash
  3526. chips consume target address space. They implicitly refer to the current
  3527. JTAG target, and map from an address in that target's address space
  3528. back to a flash bank.
  3529. @comment In May 2009, those mappings may fail if any bank associated
  3530. @comment with that target doesn't succesfuly autoprobe ... bug worth fixing?
  3531. A few commands use abstract addressing based on bank and sector numbers,
  3532. and don't depend on searching the current target and its address space.
  3533. Avoid confusing the two command models.
  3534. @end quotation
  3535. Some flash chips implement software protection against accidental writes,
  3536. since such buggy writes could in some cases ``brick'' a system.
  3537. For such systems, erasing and writing may require sector protection to be
  3538. disabled first.

  3606. When a section of the image being written does not fill out all the

  3653. Frequently the first such chip is used to boot the system.
  3654. Your board's @code{reset-init} handler might need to
  3655. configure additional chip selects using other commands (like: @command{mww} to
  3656. configure a bus and its timings), or
  3657. perhaps configure a GPIO pin that controls the ``write protect'' pin
  3658. on the flash chip.
  3659. The CFI driver can use a target-specific working area to significantly
  3660. speed up operation.
  3661. The CFI driver can accept the following optional parameters, in any order:
  3662. @itemize
  3663. @item @var{jedec_probe} ... is used to detect certain non-CFI flash ROMs,
  3664. like AM29LV010 and similar types.
  3665. @item @var{x16_as_x8} ... when a 16-bit flash is hooked up to an 8-bit bus.
  3666. @end itemize
  3667. To configure two adjacent banks of 16 MBytes each, both sixteen bits (two bytes)
  3668. wide on a sixteen bit bus:
  3669. @example
  3670. flash bank $_FLASHNAME cfi 0x00000000 0x01000000 2 2 $_TARGETNAME
  3671. flash bank $_FLASHNAME cfi 0x01000000 0x01000000 2 2 $_TARGETNAME
  3672. @end example
  3673. To configure one bank of 32 MBytes
  3674. built from two sixteen bit (two byte) wide parts wired in parallel
  3675. to create a thirty-two bit (four byte) bus with doubled throughput:
  3676. @example
  3677. flash bank $_FLASHNAME cfi 0x00000000 0x02000000 2 4 $_TARGETNAME

  3685. Some devices form STMicroelectronics (e.g. STR75x MCU family,
  3686. SPEAr MPU family) include a proprietary
  3687. ``Serial Memory Interface'' (SMI) controller able to drive external
  3688. SPI flash devices.
  3689. Depending on specific device and board configuration, up to 4 external
  3690. flash devices can be connected.
  3691. SMI makes the flash content directly accessible in the CPU address
  3692. space; each external device is mapped in a memory bank.
  3693. CPU can directly read data, execute code and boot from SMI banks.
  3694. Normal OpenOCD commands like @command{mdw} can be used to display
  3695. the flash content.
  3696. The setup command only requires the @var{base} parameter in order
  3697. to identify the memory bank.
  3698. All other parameters are ignored. Additional information, like
  3699. flash size, are detected automatically.
  3700. @example

  3708. The aduc702x flash driver works with models ADUC7019 through ADUC7028.
  3709. The setup command only requires the @var{target} argument

  3717. All members of the AT91SAM3 microcontroller family from
  3718. Atmel include internal flash and use ARM's Cortex-M3 core. The driver
  3719. currently (6/22/09) recognizes the AT91SAM3U[1/2/4][C/E] chips. Note
  3720. that the driver was orginaly developed and tested using the
  3721. AT91SAM3U4E, using a SAM3U-EK eval board. Support for other chips in
  3722. the family was cribbed from the data sheet. @emph{Note to future
  3723. readers/updaters: Please remove this worrysome comment after other
  3724. chips are confirmed.}
  3725. The AT91SAM3U4[E/C] (256K) chips have two flash banks; most other chips
  3726. have one flash bank. In all cases the flash banks are at
  3727. the following fixed locations:
  3728. @example
  3729. # Flash bank 0 - all chips
  3730. flash bank $_FLASHNAME at91sam3 0x00080000 0 1 1 $_TARGETNAME
  3731. # Flash bank 1 - only 256K chips
  3732. flash bank $_FLASHNAME at91sam3 0x00100000 0 1 1 $_TARGETNAME
  3733. @end example
  3734. Internally, the AT91SAM3 flash memory is organized as follows.
  3735. Unlike the AT91SAM7 chips, these are not used as parameters
  3736. to the @command{flash bank} command:
  3737. @itemize
  3738. @item @emph{N-Banks:} 256K chips have 2 banks, others have 1 bank.
  3739. @item @emph{Bank Size:} 128K/64K Per flash bank
  3740. @item @emph{Sectors:} 16 or 8 per bank
  3741. @item @emph{SectorSize:} 8K Per Sector
  3742. @item @emph{PageSize:} 256 bytes per page. Note that OpenOCD operates on 'sector' sizes, not page sizes.
  3743. @end itemize
  3744. The AT91SAM3 driver adds some additional commands:
  3745. @deffn Command {at91sam3 gpnvm}
  3746. @deffnx Command {at91sam3 gpnvm clear} number
  3747. @deffnx Command {at91sam3 gpnvm set} number
  3748. @deffnx Command {at91sam3 gpnvm show} [@option{all}|number]
  3749. With no parameters, @command{show} or @command{show all},
  3750. shows the status of all GPNVM bits.
  3751. With @command{show} @var{number}, displays that bit.
  3752. With @command{set} @var{number} or @command{clear} @var{number},
  3753. modifies that GPNVM bit.
  3754. @end deffn
  3755. @deffn Command {at91sam3 info}
  3756. This command attempts to display information about the AT91SAM3
  3757. chip. @emph{First} it read the @code{CHIPID_CIDR} [address 0x400e0740, see
  3758. Section 28.2.1, page 505 of the AT91SAM3U 29/may/2009 datasheet,
  3759. document id: doc6430A] and decodes the values. @emph{Second} it reads the
  3760. various clock configuration registers and attempts to display how it
  3761. believes the chip is configured. By default, the SLOWCLK is assumed to
  3762. be 32768 Hz, see the command @command{at91sam3 slowclk}.
  3763. @end deffn
  3764. @deffn Command {at91sam3 slowclk} [value]

  3769. @deffn {Flash Driver} at91sam7
  3770. All members of the AT91SAM7 microcontroller family from Atmel include
  3771. internal flash and use ARM7TDMI cores. The driver automatically
  3772. recognizes a number of these chips using the chip identification
  3773. register, and autoconfigures itself.
  3774. @example
  3775. flash bank $_FLASHNAME at91sam7 0 0 0 0 $_TARGETNAME
  3776. @end example
  3777. For chips which are not recognized by the controller driver, you must
  3778. provide additional parameters in the following order:
  3779. @itemize
  3780. @item @var{chip_model} ... label used with @command{flash info}
  3781. @item @var{banks}
  3782. @item @var{sectors_per_bank}
  3783. @item @var{pages_per_sector}
  3784. @item @var{pages_size}
  3785. @item @var{num_nvm_bits}
  3786. @item @var{freq_khz} ... required if an external clock is provided,
  3787. optional (but recommended) when the oscillator frequency is known
  3788. @end itemize
  3789. It is recommended that you provide zeroes for all of those values
  3790. except the clock frequency, so that everything except that frequency
  3791. will be autoconfigured.
  3792. Knowing the frequency helps ensure correct timings for flash access.
  3793. The flash controller handles erases automatically on a page (128/256 byte)
  3794. basis, so explicit erase commands are not necessary for flash programming.
  3795. However, there is an ``EraseAll`` command that can erase an entire flash
  3796. plane (of up to 256KB), and it will be used automatically when you issue
  3797. @command{flash erase_sector} or @command{flash erase_address} commands.
  3798. @deffn Command {at91sam7 gpnvm} bitnum (@option{set}|@option{clear})
  3799. Set or clear a ``General Purpose Non-Volatile Memory'' (GPNVM)
  3800. bit for the processor. Each processor has a number of such bits,
  3801. used for controlling features such as brownout detection (so they
  3802. are not truly general purpose).

  3823. @quotation Note

  3827. The LPC29xx family is supported by the @var{lpc2900} driver.
  3828. @end quotation
  3829. The @var{lpc2000} driver defines two mandatory and one optional parameters,
  3830. which must appear in the following order:
  3831. @itemize
  3832. @item @var{variant} ... required, may be
  3833. @option{lpc2000_v1} (older LPC21xx and LPC22xx)
  3834. @option{lpc2000_v2} (LPC213x, LPC214x, LPC210[123], LPC23xx and LPC24xx)
  3835. or @option{lpc1700} (LPC175x and LPC176x)
  3836. @item @var{clock_kHz} ... the frequency, in kiloHertz,
  3837. at which the core is running
  3838. @item @option{calc_checksum} ... optional (but you probably want to provide this!),
  3839. telling the driver to calculate a valid checksum for the exception vector table.
  3840. @quotation Note
  3841. If you don't provide @option{calc_checksum} when you're writing the vector
  3842. table, the boot ROM will almost certainly ignore your flash image.
  3843. However, if you do provide it,

  3859. support from its lpc2000 siblings.
  3860. The @var{lpc288x} driver defines one mandatory parameter,
  3861. the programming clock rate in Hz.
  3862. LPC flashes don't require the chip and bus width to be specified.
  3863. @example
  3864. flash bank $_FLASHNAME lpc288x 0 0 0 0 $_TARGETNAME 12000000

  3866. @end deffn
  3867. @deffn {Flash Driver} lpc2900
  3868. This driver supports the LPC29xx ARM968E based microcontroller family
  3869. from NXP.
  3870. The predefined parameters @var{base}, @var{size}, @var{chip_width} and
  3871. @var{bus_width} of the @code{flash bank} command are ignored. Flash size and
  3872. sector layout are auto-configured by the driver.
  3873. The driver has one additional mandatory parameter: The CPU clock rate
  3874. (in kHz) at the time the flash operations will take place. Most of the time this
  3875. will not be the crystal frequency, but a higher PLL frequency. The
  3876. @code{reset-init} event handler in the board script is usually the place where
  3877. you start the PLL.
  3878. The driver rejects flashless devices (currently the LPC2930).
  3879. The EEPROM in LPC2900 devices is not mapped directly into the address space.
  3880. It must be handled much more like NAND flash memory, and will therefore be
  3881. handled by a separate @code{lpc2900_eeprom} driver (not yet available).
  3882. Sector protection in terms of the LPC2900 is handled transparently. Every time a
  3883. sector needs to be erased or programmed, it is automatically unprotected.
  3884. What is shown as protection status in the @code{flash info} command, is
  3885. actually the LPC2900 @emph{sector security}. This is a mechanism to prevent a
  3886. sector from ever being erased or programmed again. As this is an irreversible
  3887. mechanism, it is handled by a special command (@code{lpc2900 secure_sector}),
  3888. and not by the standard @code{flash protect} command.
  3889. Example for a 125 MHz clock frequency:
  3890. @example
  3891. flash bank $_FLASHNAME lpc2900 0 0 0 0 $_TARGETNAME 125000
  3892. @end example
  3893. Some @code{lpc2900}-specific commands are defined. In the following command list,
  3894. the @var{bank} parameter is the bank number as obtained by the
  3895. @code{flash banks} command.
  3896. @deffn Command {lpc2900 signature} bank
  3897. Calculates a 128-bit hash value, the @emph{signature}, from the whole flash
  3898. content. This is a hardware feature of the flash block, hence the calculation is
  3899. very fast. You may use this to verify the content of a programmed device against
  3900. a known signature.
  3901. Example:
  3902. @example
  3903. lpc2900 signature 0
  3904. signature: 0x5f40cdc8:0xc64e592e:0x10490f89:0x32a0f317
  3905. @end example
  3906. @end deffn
  3907. @deffn Command {lpc2900 read_custom} bank filename
  3908. Reads the 912 bytes of customer information from the flash index sector, and
  3909. saves it to a file in binary format.
  3910. Example:
  3911. @example
  3912. lpc2900 read_custom 0 /path_to/customer_info.bin
  3913. @end example
  3914. @end deffn
  3915. The index sector of the flash is a @emph{write-only} sector. It cannot be
  3916. erased! In order to guard against unintentional write access, all following
  3917. commands need to be preceeded by a successful call to the @code{password}
  3918. command:
  3919. @deffn Command {lpc2900 password} bank password
  3920. You need to use this command right before each of the following commands:
  3921. @code{lpc2900 write_custom}, @code{lpc2900 secure_sector},
  3922. @code{lpc2900 secure_jtag}.
  3923. The password string is fixed to "I_know_what_I_am_doing".
  3924. Example:
  3925. @example
  3926. lpc2900 password 0 I_know_what_I_am_doing
  3927. Potentially dangerous operation allowed in next command!
  3928. @end example
  3929. @end deffn
  3930. @deffn Command {lpc2900 write_custom} bank filename type
  3931. Writes the content of the file into the customer info space of the flash index
  3932. sector. The filetype can be specified with the @var{type} field. Possible values
  3933. for @var{type} are: @var{bin} (binary), @var{ihex} (Intel hex format),
  3934. @var{elf} (ELF binary) or @var{s19} (Motorola S-records). The file must

  4141. @subsection str9xpec driver
  4142. @cindex str9xpec
  4143. Here is some background info to help
  4144. you better understand how this driver works. OpenOCD has two flash drivers for
  4145. the str9:
  4146. @enumerate
  4147. @item
  4148. Standard driver @option{str9x} programmed via the str9 core. Normally used for
  4149. flash programming as it is faster than the @option{str9xpec} driver.
  4150. @item
  4151. Direct programming @option{str9xpec} using the flash controller. This is an
  4152. ISC compilant (IEEE 1532) tap connected in series with the str9 core. The str9
  4153. core does not need to be running to program using this flash driver. Typical use
  4154. for this driver is locking/unlocking the target and programming the option bytes.
  4155. @end enumerate
  4156. Before we run any commands using the @option{str9xpec} driver we must first disable
  4157. the str9 core. This example assumes the @option{str9xpec} driver has been
  4158. configured for flash bank 0.
  4159. @example
  4160. # assert srst, we do not want core running
  4161. # while accessing str9xpec flash driver
  4162. jtag_reset 0 1
  4163. # turn off target polling
  4164. poll off
  4165. # disable str9 core
  4166. str9xpec enable_turbo 0
  4167. # read option bytes
  4168. str9xpec options_read 0
  4169. # re-enable str9 core
  4170. str9xpec disable_turbo 0
  4171. poll on
  4172. reset halt
  4173. @end example
  4174. The above example will read the str9 option bytes.
  4175. When performing a unlock remember that you will not be able to halt the str9 - it
  4176. has been locked. Halting the core is not required for the @option{str9xpec} driver
  4177. as mentioned above, just issue the commands above manually or from a telnet prompt.
  4178. @deffn {Flash Driver} str9xpec
  4179. Only use this driver for locking/unlocking the device or configuring the option bytes.
  4180. Use the standard str9 driver for programming.
  4181. Before using the flash commands the turbo mode must be enabled using the
  4182. @command{str9xpec enable_turbo} command.
  4183. Several str9xpec-specific commands are defined:
  4184. @deffn Command {str9xpec disable_turbo} num
  4185. Restore the str9 into JTAG chain.
  4186. @end deffn
  4187. @deffn Command {str9xpec enable_turbo} num
  4188. Enable turbo mode, will simply remove the str9 from the chain and talk
  4189. directly to the embedded flash controller.
  4190. @end deffn
  4191. @deffn Command {str9xpec lock} num
  4192. Lock str9 device. The str9 will only respond to an unlock command that will
  4193. erase the device.

  4267. @node NAND Flash Commands
  4268. @chapter NAND Flash Commands
  4269. @cindex NAND
  4270. Compared to NOR or SPI flash, NAND devices are inexpensive
  4271. and high density. Today's NAND chips, and multi-chip modules,
  4272. commonly hold multiple GigaBytes of data.
  4273. NAND chips consist of a number of ``erase blocks'' of a given
  4274. size (such as 128 KBytes), each of which is divided into a
  4275. number of pages (of perhaps 512 or 2048 bytes each). Each
  4276. page of a NAND flash has an ``out of band'' (OOB) area to hold
  4277. Error Correcting Code (ECC) and other metadata, usually 16 bytes
  4278. of OOB for every 512 bytes of page data.
  4279. One key characteristic of NAND flash is that its error rate
  4280. is higher than that of NOR flash. In normal operation, that
  4281. ECC is used to correct and detect errors. However, NAND
  4282. blocks can also wear out and become unusable; those blocks
  4283. are then marked "bad". NAND chips are even shipped from the
  4284. manufacturer with a few bad blocks. The highest density chips
  4285. use a technology (MLC) that wears out more quickly, so ECC
  4286. support is increasingly important as a way to detect blocks
  4287. that have begun to fail, and help to preserve data integrity
  4288. with techniques such as wear leveling.
  4289. Software is used to manage the ECC. Some controllers don't
  4290. support ECC directly; in those cases, software ECC is used.
  4291. Other controllers speed up the ECC calculations with hardware.
  4292. Single-bit error correction hardware is routine. Controllers
  4293. geared for newer MLC chips may correct 4 or more errors for
  4294. every 512 bytes of data.
  4295. You will need to make sure that any data you write using
  4296. OpenOCD includes the apppropriate kind of ECC. For example,
  4297. that may mean passing the @code{oob_softecc} flag when
  4298. writing NAND data, or ensuring that the correct hardware
  4299. ECC mode is used.
  4300. The basic steps for using NAND devices include:
  4301. @enumerate
  4302. @item Declare via the command @command{nand device}
  4303. @* Do this in a board-specific configuration file,
  4304. passing parameters as needed by the controller.
  4305. @item Configure each device using @command{nand probe}.
  4306. @* Do this only after the associated target is set up,
  4307. such as in its reset-init script or in procures defined
  4308. to access that device.
  4309. @item Operate on the flash via @command{nand subcommand}
  4310. @* Often commands to manipulate the flash are typed by a human, or run
  4311. via a script in some automated way. Common task include writing a
  4312. boot loader, operating system, or other data needed to initialize or
  4313. de-brick a board.
  4314. @end enumerate
  4315. @b{NOTE:} At the time this text was written, the largest NAND
  4316. flash fully supported by OpenOCD is 2 GiBytes (16 GiBits).
  4317. This is because the variables used to hold offsets and lengths
  4318. are only 32 bits wide.
  4319. (Larger chips may work in some cases, unless an offset or length
  4320. is larger than 0xffffffff, the largest 32-bit unsigned integer.)
  4321. Some larger devices will work, since they are actually multi-chip
  4322. modules with two smaller chips and individual chipselect lines.

  4547. @code{read_page} methods are used to utilize the ECC hardware unless they are
  4548. disabled by using the @command{nand raw_access} command. There are four
  4549. additional commands that are needed to fully configure the AT91SAM9 NAND

  4749. @cindex target initialization
  4750. In this section ``target'' refers to a CPU configured as
  4751. shown earlier (@pxref{CPU Configuration}).
  4752. These commands, like many, implicitly refer to
  4753. a current target which is used to perform the
  4754. various operations. The current target may be changed
  4755. by using @command{targets} command with the name of the
  4756. target which should become current.
  4757. @deffn Command reg [(number|name) [value]]
  4758. Access a single register by @var{number} or by its @var{name}.
  4759. The target must generally be halted before access to CPU core
  4760. registers is allowed. Depending on the hardware, some other
  4761. registers may be accessible while the target is running.
  4762. @emph{With no arguments}:
  4763. list all available registers for the current target,
  4764. showing number, name, size, value, and cache status.
  4765. For valid entries, a value is shown; valid entries
  4766. which are also dirty (and will be written back later)
  4767. are flagged as such.
  4768. @emph{With number/name}: display that register's value.
  4769. @emph{With both number/name and value}: set register's value.
  4770. Writes may be held in a writeback cache internal to OpenOCD,
  4771. so that setting the value marks the register as dirty instead
  4772. of immediately flushing that value. Resuming CPU execution
  4773. (including by single stepping) or otherwise activating the
  4774. relevant module will flush such values.
  4775. Cores may have surprisingly many registers in their
  4776. Debug and trace infrastructure:

  4788. @deffn Command halt [ms]
  4789. @deffnx Command wait_halt [ms]
  4790. The @command{halt} command first sends a halt request to the target,
  4791. which @command{wait_halt} doesn't.
  4792. Otherwise these behave the same: wait up to @var{ms} milliseconds,
  4793. or 5 seconds if there is no parameter, for the target to halt
  4794. (and enter debug mode).
  4795. Using 0 as the @var{ms} parameter prevents OpenOCD from waiting.
  4796. @quotation Warning
  4797. On ARM cores, software using the @emph{wait for interrupt} operation
  4798. often blocks the JTAG access needed by a @command{halt} command.
  4799. This is because that operation also puts the core into a low
  4800. power mode by gating the core clock;
  4801. but the core clock is needed to detect JTAG clock transitions.
  4802. One partial workaround uses adaptive clocking: when the core is
  4803. interrupted the operation completes, then JTAG clocks are accepted
  4804. at least until the interrupt handler completes.
  4805. However, this workaround is often unusable since the processor, board,
  4806. and JTAG adapter must all support adaptive JTAG clocking.
  4807. Also, it can't work until an interrupt is issued.
  4808. A more complete workaround is to not use that operation while you
  4809. work with a JTAG debugger.
  4810. Tasking environments generaly have idle loops where the body is the
  4811. @emph{wait for interrupt} operation.
  4812. (On older cores, it is a coprocessor action;
  4813. newer cores have a @option{wfi} instruction.)
  4814. Such loops can just remove that operation, at the cost of higher
  4815. power consumption (because the CPU is needlessly clocked).

  4954. testing purposes or when I/O overhead is significant(OpenOCD running on an embedded
  4955. host), storing the image in memory and uploading the image to the target

  5049. @cindex ETB
  5050. CPUs based on ARM cores may include standard tracing interfaces,
  5051. based on an ``Embedded Trace Module'' (ETM) which sends voluminous
  5052. address and data bus trace records to a ``Trace Port''.
  5053. @itemize
  5054. @item
  5055. Development-oriented boards will sometimes provide a high speed
  5056. trace connector for collecting that data, when the particular CPU
  5057. supports such an interface.
  5058. (The standard connector is a 38-pin Mictor, with both JTAG
  5059. and trace port support.)
  5060. Those trace connectors are supported by higher end JTAG adapters
  5061. and some logic analyzer modules; frequently those modules can
  5062. buffer several megabytes of trace data.
  5063. Configuring an ETM coupled to such an external trace port belongs
  5064. in the board-specific configuration file.
  5065. @item
  5066. If the CPU doesn't provide an external interface, it probably
  5067. has an ``Embedded Trace Buffer'' (ETB) on the chip, which is a
  5068. dedicated SRAM. 4KBytes is one common ETB size.
  5069. Configuring an ETM coupled only to an ETB belongs in the CPU-specific
  5070. (target) configuration file, since it works the same on all boards.
  5071. @end itemize
  5072. ETM support in OpenOCD doesn't seem to be widely used yet.
  5073. @quotation Issues
  5074. ETM support may be buggy, and at least some @command{etm config}
  5075. parameters should be detected by asking the ETM for them.
  5076. ETM trigger events could also implement a kind of complex
  5077. hardware breakpoint, much more powerful than the simple
  5078. watchpoint hardware exported by EmbeddedICE modules.
  5079. @emph{Such breakpoints can be triggered even when using the
  5080. dummy trace port driver}.
  5081. It seems like a GDB hookup should be possible,
  5082. as well as tracing only during specific states
  5083. (perhaps @emph{handling IRQ 23} or @emph{calls foo()}).
  5084. There should be GUI tools to manipulate saved trace data and help
  5085. analyse it in conjunction with the source code.
  5086. It's unclear how much of a common interface is shared
  5087. with the current XScale trace support, or should be
  5088. shared with eventual Nexus-style trace module support.
  5089. At this writing (November 2009) only ARM7, ARM9, and ARM11 support
  5090. for ETM modules is available. The code should be able to
  5091. work with some newer cores; but not all of them support
  5092. this original style of JTAG access.

  5097. Declares the ETM associated with @var{target}, and associates it
  5098. with a given trace port @var{driver}. @xref{Trace Port Drivers}.
  5099. Several of the parameters must reflect the trace port capabilities,
  5100. which are a function of silicon capabilties (exposed later
  5101. using @command{etm info}) and of what hardware is connected to
  5102. that port (such as an external pod, or ETB).
  5103. The @var{width} must be either 4, 8, or 16,
  5104. except with ETMv3.0 and newer modules which may also
  5105. support 1, 2, 24, 32, 48, and 64 bit widths.
  5106. (With those versions, @command{etm info} also shows whether
  5107. the selected port width and mode are supported.)
  5108. The @var{mode} must be @option{normal}, @option{multiplexed},
  5109. or @option{demultiplexed}.
  5110. The @var{clocking} must be @option{half} or @option{full}.
  5111. @quotation Warning
  5112. With ETMv3.0 and newer, the bits set with the @var{mode} and
  5113. @var{clocking} parameters both control the mode.
  5114. This modified mode does not map to the values supported by

  5472. @end deffn
  5473. @subsection XScale specific commands
  5474. @cindex XScale
  5475. Some notes about the debug implementation on the XScale CPUs:
  5476. The XScale CPU provides a special debug-only mini-instruction cache
  5477. (mini-IC) in which exception vectors and target-resident debug handler
  5478. code are placed by OpenOCD. In order to get access to the CPU, OpenOCD
  5479. must point vector 0 (the reset vector) to the entry of the debug
  5480. handler. However, this means that the complete first cacheline in the
  5481. mini-IC is marked valid, which makes the CPU fetch all exception
  5482. handlers from the mini-IC, ignoring the code in RAM.
  5483. To address this situation, OpenOCD provides the @code{xscale
  5484. vector_table} command, which allows the user to explicity write
  5485. individual entries to either the high or low vector table stored in
  5486. the mini-IC.
  5487. It is recommended to place a pc-relative indirect branch in the vector
  5488. table, and put the branch destination somewhere in memory. Doing so
  5489. makes sure the code in the vector table stays constant regardless of
  5490. code layout in memory:
  5491. @example
  5492. _vectors:
  5493. ldr pc,[pc,#0x100-8]
  5494. ldr pc,[pc,#0x100-8]
  5495. ldr pc,[pc,#0x100-8]
  5496. ldr pc,[pc,#0x100-8]
  5497. ldr pc,[pc,#0x100-8]
  5498. ldr pc,[pc,#0x100-8]
  5499. ldr pc,[pc,#0x100-8]
  5500. ldr pc,[pc,#0x100-8]
  5501. .org 0x100
  5502. .long real_reset_vector
  5503. .long real_ui_handler
  5504. .long real_swi_handler
  5505. .long real_pf_abort
  5506. .long real_data_abort
  5507. .long 0 /* unused */
  5508. .long real_irq_handler
  5509. .long real_fiq_handler
  5510. @end example
  5511. Alternatively, you may choose to keep some or all of the mini-IC
  5512. vector table entries synced with those written to memory by your
  5513. system software. The mini-IC can not be modified while the processor
  5514. is executing, but for each vector table entry not previously defined
  5515. using the @code{xscale vector_table} command, OpenOCD will copy the
  5516. value from memory to the mini-IC every time execution resumes from a
  5517. halt. This is done for both high and low vector tables (although the
  5518. table not in use may not be mapped to valid memory, and in this case
  5519. that copy operation will silently fail). This means that you will
  5520. need to briefly halt execution at some strategic point during system
  5521. start-up; e.g., after the software has initialized the vector table,
  5522. but before exceptions are enabled. A breakpoint can be used to
  5523. accomplish this once the appropriate location in the start-up code has
  5524. been identified. A watchpoint over the vector table region is helpful
  5525. in finding the location if you're not sure. Note that the same
  5526. situation exists any time the vector table is modified by the system
  5527. software.
  5528. The debug handler must be placed somewhere in the address space using
  5529. the @code{xscale debug_handler} command. The allowed locations for the
  5530. debug handler are either (0x800 - 0x1fef800) or (0xfe000800 -
  5531. 0xfffff800). The default value is 0xfe000800.
  5532. XScale has resources to support two hardware breakpoints and two
  5533. watchpoints. However, the following restrictions on watchpoint
  5534. functionality apply: (1) the value and mask arguments to the @code{wp}
  5535. command are not supported, (2) the watchpoint length must be a
  5536. power of two and not less than four, and can not be greater than the
  5537. watchpoint address, and (3) a watchpoint with a length greater than
  5538. four consumes all the watchpoint hardware resources. This means that
  5539. at any one time, you can have enabled either two watchpoints with a
  5540. length of four, or one watchpoint with a length greater than four.
  5541. These commands are available to XScale based CPUs,

  5735. OpenOCD can process certain requests from target software, when
  5736. the target uses appropriate libraries.
  5737. The most powerful mechanism is semihosting, but there is also
  5738. a lighter weight mechanism using only the DCC channel.
  5739. Currently @command{target_request debugmsgs}
  5740. is supported only for @option{arm7_9} and @option{cortex_m3} cores.
  5741. These messages are received as part of target polling, so
  5742. you need to have @command{poll on} active to receive them.
  5743. They are intrusive in that they will affect program execution
  5744. times. If that is a problem, @pxref{ARM Hardware Tracing}.
  5745. See @file{libdcc} in the contrib dir for more details.
  5746. In addition to sending strings, characters, and
  5747. arrays of various size integers from the target,
  5748. @file{libdcc} also exports a software trace point mechanism.
  5749. The target being debugged may
  5750. issue trace messages which include a 24-bit @dfn{trace point} number.
  5751. Trace point support includes two distinct mechanisms,
  5752. each supported by a command:
  5753. @itemize
  5754. @item @emph{History} ... A circular buffer of trace points
  5755. can be set up, and then displayed at any time.
  5756. This tracks where code has been, which can be invaluable in
  5757. finding out how some fault was triggered.
  5758. The buffer may overflow, since it collects records continuously.
  5759. It may be useful to use some of the 24 bits to represent a
  5760. particular event, and other bits to hold data.
  5761. @item @emph{Counting} ... An array of counters can be set up,
  5762. and then displayed at any time.
  5763. This can help establish code coverage and identify hot spots.
  5764. The array of counters is directly indexed by the trace point
  5765. number, so trace points with higher numbers are not counted.
  5766. @end itemize
  5767. Linux-ARM kernels have a ``Kernel low-level debugging
  5768. via EmbeddedICE DCC channel'' option (CONFIG_DEBUG_ICEDCC,
  5769. depends on CONFIG_DEBUG_LL) which uses this mechanism to
  5770. deliver messages before a serial console can be activated.
  5771. This is not the same format used by @file{libdcc}.
  5772. Other software, such as the U-Boot boot loader, sometimes
  5773. does the same thing.
  5774. @deffn Command {target_request debugmsgs} [@option{enable}|@option{disable}|@option{charmsg}]
  5775. Displays current handling of target DCC message requests.
  5776. These messages may be sent to the debugger while the target is running.
  5777. The optional @option{enable} and @option{charmsg} parameters
  5778. both enable the messages, while @option{disable} disables them.
  5779. With @option{charmsg} the DCC words each contain one character,
  5780. as used by Linux with CONFIG_DEBUG_ICEDCC;
  5781. otherwise the libdcc format is used.
  5782. @end deffn
  5783. @deffn Command {trace history} [@option{clear}|count]
  5784. With no parameter, displays all the trace points that have triggered
  5785. in the order they triggered.
  5786. With the parameter @option{clear}, erases all current trace history records.
  5787. With a @var{count} parameter, allocates space for that many

  5794. With a numeric @var{identifier} parameter, creates a new a trace point counter
  5795. and associates it with that identifier.
  5796. @emph{Important:} The identifier and the trace point number
  5797. are not related except by this command.
  5798. These trace point numbers always start at zero (from server startup,

  5804. Most general purpose JTAG commands have been presented earlier.
  5805. (@xref{JTAG Speed}, @ref{Reset Configuration}, and @ref{TAP Declaration}.)
  5806. Lower level JTAG commands, as presented here,
  5807. may be needed to work with targets which require special
  5808. attention during operations such as reset or initialization.
  5809. To use these commands you will need to understand some
  5810. of the basics of JTAG, including:
  5811. @itemize @bullet
  5812. @item A JTAG scan chain consists of a sequence of individual TAP
  5813. devices such as a CPUs.
  5814. @item Control operations involve moving each TAP through the same
  5815. standard state machine (in parallel)
  5816. using their shared TMS and clock signals.
  5817. @item Data transfer involves shifting data through the chain of
  5818. instruction or data registers of each TAP, writing new register values
  5819. while the reading previous ones.
  5820. @item Data register sizes are a function of the instruction active in
  5821. a given TAP, while instruction register sizes are fixed for each TAP.
  5822. All TAPs support a BYPASS instruction with a single bit data register.
  5823. @item The way OpenOCD differentiates between TAP devices is by
  5824. shifting different instructions into (and out of) their instruction
  5825. registers.
  5826. @end itemize
  5827. @section Low Level JTAG Commands
  5828. These commands are used by developers who need to access
  5829. JTAG instruction or data registers, possibly controlling
  5830. the order of TAP state transitions.
  5831. If you're not debugging OpenOCD internals, or bringing up a
  5832. new JTAG adapter or a new type of TAP device (like a CPU or
  5833. JTAG router), you probably won't need to use these commands.
  5834. In a debug session that doesn't use JTAG for its transport protocol,
  5835. these commands are not available.
  5836. @deffn Command {drscan} tap [numbits value]+ [@option{-endstate} tap_state]
  5837. Loads the data register of @var{tap} with a series of bit fields
  5838. that specify the entire register.
  5839. Each field is @var{numbits} bits long with
  5840. a numeric @var{value} (hexadecimal encouraged).
  5841. The return value holds the original value of each
  5842. of those fields.
  5843. For example, a 38 bit number might be specified as one
  5844. field of 32 bits then one of 6 bits.
  5845. @emph{For portability, never pass fields which are more
  5846. than 32 bits long. Many OpenOCD implementations do not
  5847. support 64-bit (or larger) integer values.}
  5848. All TAPs other than @var{tap} must be in BYPASS mode.
  5849. The single bit in their data registers does not matter.
  5850. When @var{tap_state} is specified, the JTAG state machine is left
  5851. in that state.
  5852. For example @sc{drpause} might be specified, so that more
  5853. instructions can be issued before re-entering the @sc{run/idle} state.
  5854. If the end state is not specified, the @sc{run/idle} state is entered.
  5855. @quotation Warning
  5856. OpenOCD does not record information about data register lengths,
  5857. so @emph{it is important that you get the bit field lengths right}.
  5858. Remember that different JTAG instructions refer to different
  5859. data registers, which may have different lengths.
  5860. Moreover, those lengths may not be fixed;
  5861. the SCAN_N instruction can change the length of
  5862. the register accessed by the INTEST instruction
  5863. (by connecting a different scan chain).
  5864. @end quotation
  5865. @end deffn
  5866. @deffn Command {flush_count}
  5867. Returns the number of times the JTAG queue has been flushed.
  5868. This may be used for performance tuning.
  5869. For example, flushing a queue over USB involves a
  5870. minimum latency, often several milliseconds, which does
  5871. not change with the amount of data which is written.
  5872. You may be able to identify performance problems by finding
  5873. tasks which waste bandwidth by flushing small transfers too often,
  5874. instead of batching them into larger operations.
  5875. @end deffn
  5876. @deffn Command {irscan} [tap instruction]+ [@option{-endstate} tap_state]
  5877. For each @var{tap} listed, loads the instruction register
  5878. with its associated numeric @var{instruction}.
  5879. (The number of bits in that instruction may be displayed
  5880. using the @command{scan_chain} command.)
  5881. For other TAPs, a BYPASS instruction is loaded.
  5882. When @var{tap_state} is specified, the JTAG state machine is left
  5883. in that state.
  5884. For example @sc{irpause} might be specified, so the data register
  5885. can be loaded before re-entering the @sc{run/idle} state.
  5886. If the end state is not specified, the @sc{run/idle} state is entered.
  5887. @quotation Note
  5888. OpenOCD currently supports only a single field for instruction
  5889. register values, unlike data register values.
  5890. For TAPs where the instruction register length is more than 32 bits,
  5891. portable scripts currently must issue only BYPASS instructions.
  5892. @end quotation
  5893. @end deffn
  5894. @deffn Command {jtag_reset} trst srst
  5895. Set values of reset signals.
  5896. The @var{trst} and @var{srst} parameter values may be
  5897. @option{0}, indicating that reset is inactive (pulled or driven high),
  5898. or @option{1}, indicating it is active (pulled or driven low).
  5899. The @command{reset_config} command should already have been used
  5900. to configure how the board and JTAG adapter treat these two
  5901. signals, and to say if either signal is even present.
  5902. @xref{Reset Configuration}.
  5903. Note that TRST is specially handled.
  5904. It actually signifies JTAG's @sc{reset} state.
  5905. So if the board doesn't support the optional TRST signal,
  5906. or it doesn't support it along with the specified SRST value,
  5907. JTAG reset is triggered with TMS and TCK signals
  5908. instead of the TRST signal.
  5909. And no matter how that JTAG reset is triggered, once
  5910. the scan chain enters @sc{reset} with TRST inactive,
  5911. TAP @code{post-reset} events are delivered to all TAPs
  5912. with handlers for that event.

  5914. @deffn Command {pathmove} start_state [next_state ...]
  5915. Start by moving to @var{start_state}, which
  5916. must be one of the @emph{stable} states.
  5917. Unless it is the only state given, this will often be the
  5918. current state, so that no TCK transitions are needed.
  5919. Then, in a series of single state transitions
  5920. (conforming to the JTAG state machine) shift to
  5921. each @var{next_state} in sequence, one per TCK cycle.

  6049. If OpenOCD runs on an embedded host(as ZY1000 does), then TFTP can
  6050. be used to access files on PCs (either the developer's PC or some other PC).
  6051. The way this works on the ZY1000 is to prefix a filename by
  6052. "/tftp/ip/" and append the TFTP path on the TFTP
  6053. server (tftpd). For example,
  6054. @example
  6055. load_image /tftp/10.0.0.96/c:\temp\abc.elf
  6056. @end example
  6057. will load c:\temp\abc.elf from the developer pc (10.0.0.96) into memory as
  6058. if the file was hosted on the embedded host.
  6059. In order to achieve decent performance, you must choose a TFTP server
  6060. that supports a packet size bigger than the default packet size (512 bytes). There
  6061. are numerous TFTP servers out there (free and commercial) and you will have to do
  6062. a bit of googling to find something that fits your requirements.
  6063. @node GDB and OpenOCD
  6064. @chapter GDB and OpenOCD
  6065. @cindex GDB
  6066. OpenOCD complies with the remote gdbserver protocol, and as such can be used
  6067. to debug remote targets.
  6068. Setting up GDB to work with OpenOCD can involve several components:
  6069. @itemize
  6070. @item The OpenOCD server support for GDB may need to be configured.
  6071. @xref{GDB Configuration}.
  6072. @item GDB's support for OpenOCD may need configuration,
  6073. as shown in this chapter.
  6074. @item If you have a GUI environment like Eclipse,
  6075. that also will probably need to be configured.
  6076. @end itemize
  6077. Of course, the version of GDB you use will need to be one which has
  6078. been built to know about the target CPU you're using. It's probably
  6079. part of the tool chain you're using. For example, if you are doing
  6080. cross-development for ARM on an x86 PC, instead of using the native
  6081. x86 @command{gdb} command you might use @command{arm-none-eabi-gdb}
  6082. if that's the tool chain used to compile your code.
  6083. @anchor{Connecting to GDB}
  6084. @section Connecting to GDB
  6085. @cindex Connecting to GDB
  6086. Use GDB 6.7 or newer with OpenOCD if you run into trouble. For
  6087. instance GDB 6.3 has a known bug that produces bogus memory access
  6088. errors, which has since been fixed; see
  6089. @url{http://osdir.com/ml/gdb.bugs.discuss/2004-12/msg00018.html}
  6090. OpenOCD can communicate with GDB in two ways:
  6091. @enumerate
  6092. @item
  6093. A socket (TCP/IP) connection is typically started as follows:
  6094. @example
  6095. target remote localhost:3333
  6096. @end example
  6097. This would cause GDB to connect to the gdbserver on the local pc using port 3333.
  6098. @item
  6099. A pipe connection is typically started as follows:
  6100. @example
  6101. target remote | openocd -c "gdb_port pipe; log_output openocd.log"
  6102. @end example
  6103. This would cause GDB to run OpenOCD and communicate using pipes (stdin/stdout).
  6104. Using this method has the advantage of GDB starting/stopping OpenOCD for the debug
  6105. session. log_output sends the log output to a file to ensure that the pipe is
  6106. not saturated when using higher debug level outputs.
  6107. @end enumerate
  6108. To list the available OpenOCD commands type @command{monitor help} on the
  6109. GDB command line.
  6110. @section Sample GDB session startup
  6111. With the remote protocol, GDB sessions start a little differently
  6112. than they do when you're debugging locally.
  6113. Here's an examples showing how to start a debug session with a
  6114. small ARM program.
  6115. In this case the program was linked to be loaded into SRAM on a Cortex-M3.
  6116. Most programs would be written into flash (address 0) and run from there.
  6117. @example
  6118. $ arm-none-eabi-gdb example.elf
  6119. (gdb) target remote localhost:3333
  6120. Remote debugging using localhost:3333
  6121. ...
  6122. (gdb) monitor reset halt
  6123. ...
  6124. (gdb) load
  6125. Loading section .vectors, size 0x100 lma 0x20000000
  6126. Loading section .text, size 0x5a0 lma 0x20000100
  6127. Loading section .data, size 0x18 lma 0x200006a0
  6128. Start address 0x2000061c, load size 1720
  6129. Transfer rate: 22 KB/sec, 573 bytes/write.
  6130. (gdb) continue
  6131. Continuing.
  6132. ...
  6133. @end example
  6134. You could then interrupt the GDB session to make the program break,
  6135. type @command{where} to show the stack, @command{list} to show the
  6136. code around the program counter, @command{step} through code,
  6137. set breakpoints or watchpoints, and so on.
  6138. @section Configuring GDB for OpenOCD
  6139. OpenOCD supports the gdb @option{qSupported} packet, this enables information
  6140. to be sent by the GDB remote server (i.e. OpenOCD) to GDB. Typical information includes
  6141. packet size and the device's memory map.
  6142. You do not need to configure the packet size by hand,
  6143. and the relevant parts of the memory map should be automatically
  6144. set up when you declare (NOR) flash banks.
  6145. However, there are other things which GDB can't currently query.
  6146. You may need to set those up by hand.
  6147. As OpenOCD starts up, you will often see a line reporting
  6148. something like:
  6149. @example
  6150. Info : lm3s.cpu: hardware has 6 breakpoints, 4 watchpoints
  6151. @end example
  6152. You can pass that information to GDB with these commands:
  6153. @example
  6154. set remote hardware-breakpoint-limit 6
  6155. set remote hardware-watchpoint-limit 4
  6156. @end example
  6157. With that particular hardware (Cortex-M3) the hardware breakpoints
  6158. only work for code running from flash memory. Most other ARM systems
  6159. do not have such restrictions.
  6160. Another example of useful GDB configuration came from a user who
  6161. found that single stepping his Cortex-M3 didn't work well with IRQs
  6162. and an RTOS until he told GDB to disable the IRQs while stepping:
  6163. @example
  6164. define hook-step
  6165. mon cortex_m3 maskisr on
  6166. end
  6167. define hookpost-step
  6168. mon cortex_m3 maskisr off
  6169. end
  6170. @end example
  6171. Rather than typing such commands interactively, you may prefer to
  6172. save them in a file and have GDB execute them as it starts, perhaps
  6173. using a @file{.gdbinit} in your project directory or starting GDB
  6174. using @command{gdb -x filename}.
  6175. @section Programming using GDB
  6176. @cindex Programming using GDB
  6177. By default the target memory map is sent to GDB. This can be disabled by
  6178. the following OpenOCD configuration option:
  6179. @example
  6180. gdb_memory_map disable
  6181. @end example
  6182. For this to function correctly a valid flash configuration must also be set
  6183. in OpenOCD. For faster performance you should also configure a valid
  6184. working area.
  6185. Informing GDB of the memory map of the target will enable GDB to protect any
  6186. flash areas of the target and use hardware breakpoints by default. This means
  6187. that the OpenOCD option @command{gdb_breakpoint_override} is not required when
  6188. using a memory map. @xref{gdb_breakpoint_override}.
  6189. To view the configured memory map in GDB, use the GDB command @option{info mem}
  6190. All other unassigned addresses within GDB are treated as RAM.
  6191. GDB 6.8 and higher set any memory area not in the memory map as inaccessible.
  6192. This can be changed to the old behaviour by using the following GDB command
  6193. @example
  6194. set mem inaccessible-by-default off
  6195. @end example
  6196. If @command{gdb_flash_program enable} is also used, GDB will be able to
  6197. program any flash memory using the vFlash interface.
  6198. GDB will look at the target memory map when a load command is given, if any
  6199. areas to be programmed lie within the target flash area the vFlash packets
  6200. will be used.
  6201. If the target needs configuring before GDB programming, an event
  6202. script can be executed:
  6203. @example
  6204. $_TARGETNAME configure -event EVENTNAME BODY
  6205. @end example
  6206. To verify any flash programming the GDB command @option{compare-sections}
  6207. can be used.

  6219. GDB connection. Reply is @option{XXXXXXXX} (8 hex digits giving core id) or
  6220. @option{E01} for target not smp.
  6221. @item @option{JcXXXXXXXX} (8 hex digits) packet for setting core id displayed at next GDB continue

  6259. information as an argument to each proc.
  6260. There are three main types of return values: single value, name value

  6321. @item @b{RTCK, also known as: Adaptive Clocking - What is it?}
  6322. @cindex RTCK
  6323. @cindex adaptive clocking
  6324. @*
  6325. In digital circuit design it is often refered to as ``clock
  6326. synchronisation'' the JTAG interface uses one clock (TCK or TCLK)
  6327. operating at some speed, your CPU target is operating at another.
  6328. The two clocks are not synchronised, they are ``asynchronous''
  6329. In order for the two to work together they must be synchronised
  6330. well enough to work; JTAG can't go ten times faster than the CPU,
  6331. for example. There are 2 basic options:
  6332. @enumerate
  6333. @item
  6334. Use a special "adaptive clocking" circuit to change the JTAG
  6335. clock rate to match what the CPU currently supports.
  6336. @item
  6337. The JTAG clock must be fixed at some speed that's enough slower than
  6338. the CPU clock that all TMS and TDI transitions can be detected.
  6339. @end enumerate
  6340. @b{Does this really matter?} For some chips and some situations, this
  6341. is a non-issue, like a 500MHz ARM926 with a 5 MHz JTAG link;
  6342. the CPU has no difficulty keeping up with JTAG.
  6343. Startup sequences are often problematic though, as are other
  6344. situations where the CPU clock rate changes (perhaps to save
  6345. power).
  6346. For example, Atmel AT91SAM chips start operation from reset with
  6347. a 32kHz system clock. Boot firmware may activate the main oscillator
  6348. and PLL before switching to a faster clock (perhaps that 500 MHz
  6349. ARM926 scenario).
  6350. If you're using JTAG to debug that startup sequence, you must slow
  6351. the JTAG clock to sometimes 1 to 4kHz. After startup completes,
  6352. JTAG can use a faster clock.
  6353. Consider also debugging a 500MHz ARM926 hand held battery powered
  6354. device that enters a low power ``deep sleep'' mode, at 32kHz CPU
  6355. clock, between keystrokes unless it has work to do. When would
  6356. that 5 MHz JTAG clock be usable?
  6357. @b{Solution #1 - A special circuit}
  6358. In order to make use of this,
  6359. your CPU, board, and JTAG adapter must all support the RTCK
  6360. feature. Not all of them support this; keep reading!
  6361. The RTCK ("Return TCK") signal in some ARM chips is used to help with
  6362. this problem. ARM has a good description of the problem described at
  6363. this link: @url{http://www.arm.com/support/faqdev/4170.html} [checked
  6364. 28/nov/2008]. Link title: ``How does the JTAG synchronisation logic
  6365. work? / how does adaptive clocking work?''.
  6366. The nice thing about adaptive clocking is that ``battery powered hand
  6367. held device example'' - the adaptiveness works perfectly all the
  6368. time. One can set a break point or halt the system in the deep power
  6369. down code, slow step out until the system speeds up.
  6370. Note that adaptive clocking may also need to work at the board level,
  6371. when a board-level scan chain has multiple chips.
  6372. Parallel clock voting schemes are good way to implement this,
  6373. both within and between chips, and can easily be implemented
  6374. with a CPLD.
  6375. It's not difficult to have logic fan a module's input TCK signal out
  6376. to each TAP in the scan chain, and then wait until each TAP's RTCK comes
  6377. back with the right polarity before changing the output RTCK signal.
  6378. Texas Instruments makes some clock voting logic available
  6379. for free (with no support) in VHDL form; see
  6380. @url{http://tiexpressdsp.com/index.php/Adaptive_Clocking}
  6381. @b{Solution #2 - Always works - but may be slower}
  6382. Often this is a perfectly acceptable solution.
  6383. In most simple terms: Often the JTAG clock must be 1/10 to 1/12 of
  6384. the target clock speed. But what that ``magic division'' is varies
  6385. depending on the chips on your board.
  6386. @b{ARM rule of thumb} Most ARM based systems require an 6:1 division;
  6387. ARM11 cores use an 8:1 division.
  6388. @b{Xilinx rule of thumb} is 1/12 the clock speed.
  6389. Note: most full speed FT2232 based JTAG adapters are limited to a
  6390. maximum of 6MHz. The ones using USB high speed chips (FT2232H)
  6391. often support faster clock rates (and adaptive clocking).
  6392. You can still debug the 'low power' situations - you just need to
  6393. either use a fixed and very slow JTAG clock rate ... or else
  6394. manually adjust the clock speed at every step. (Adjusting is painful
  6395. and tedious, and is not always practical.)
  6396. It is however easy to ``code your way around it'' - i.e.: Cheat a little,
  6397. have a special debug mode in your application that does a ``high power
  6398. sleep''. If you are careful - 98% of your problems can be debugged
  6399. this way.
  6400. Note that on ARM you may need to avoid using the @emph{wait for interrupt}
  6401. operation in your idle loops even if you don't otherwise change the CPU
  6402. clock rate.
  6403. That operation gates the CPU clock, and thus the JTAG clock; which
  6404. prevents JTAG access. One consequence is not being able to @command{halt}
  6405. cores which are executing that @emph{wait for interrupt} operation.
  6406. To set the JTAG frequency use the command:
  6407. @example
  6408. # Example: 1.234MHz
  6409. adapter_khz 1234
  6410. @end example
  6411. @item @b{Win32 Pathnames} Why don't backslashes work in Windows paths?
  6412. OpenOCD uses Tcl and a backslash is an escape char. Use @{ and @}
  6413. around Windows filenames.
  6414. @example
  6415. > echo \a
  6416. > echo @{\a@}
  6417. \a
  6418. > echo "\a"

  6428. GDB issues software breakpoints when a normal breakpoint is requested, or to implement
  6429. source-line single-stepping. On ARMv4T systems, like ARM7TDMI, ARM720T or ARM920T,

  6445. beyond the last valid frame. It might be possible to prevent this by setting up
  6446. a proper "initial" stack frame, if you happen to know what exactly has to
  6447. be done, feel free to add this here.
  6448. @b{Simple:} In your startup code - push 8 registers of zeros onto the
  6449. stack before calling main(). What GDB is doing is ``climbing'' the run
  6450. time stack by reading various values on the stack using the standard
  6451. call frame for the target. GDB keeps going - until one of 2 things
  6452. happen @b{#1} an invalid frame is found, or @b{#2} some huge number of
  6453. stackframes have been processed. By pushing zeros on the stack, GDB
  6454. gracefully stops.
  6455. @b{Debugging Interrupt Service Routines} - In your ISR before you call
  6456. your C code, do the same - artifically push some zeros onto the stack,
  6457. remember to pop them off when the ISR is done.
  6458. @b{Also note:} If you have a multi-threaded operating system, they
  6459. often do not @b{in the intrest of saving memory} waste these few
  6460. bytes. Painful...
  6461. @item @b{JTAG Reset Config} I get the following message in the OpenOCD console (or log file):
  6462. "Warning: arm7_9_common.c:679 arm7_9_assert_reset(): srst resets test logic, too".
  6463. This warning doesn't indicate any serious problem, as long as you don't want to
  6464. debug your core right out of reset. Your .cfg file specified @option{jtag_reset
  6465. trst_and_srst srst_pulls_trst} to tell OpenOCD that either your board,
  6466. your debugger or your target uC (e.g. LPC2000) can't assert the two reset signals
  6467. independently. With this setup, it's not possible to halt the core right out of
  6468. reset, everything else should work fine.
  6469. @item @b{USB Power} When using OpenOCD in conjunction with Amontec JTAGkey and the Yagarto
  6470. toolchain (Eclipse, arm-elf-gcc, arm-elf-gdb), the debugging seems to be
  6471. unstable. When single-stepping over large blocks of code, GDB and OpenOCD
  6472. quit with an error message. Is there a stability issue with OpenOCD?
  6473. No, this is not a stability issue concerning OpenOCD. Most users have solved
  6474. this issue by simply using a self-powered USB hub, which they connect their
  6475. Amontec JTAGkey to. Apparently, some computers do not provide a USB power
  6476. supply stable enough for the Amontec JTAGkey to be operated.
  6477. @b{Laptops running on battery have this problem too...}
  6478. @item @b{USB Power} When using the Amontec JTAGkey, sometimes OpenOCD crashes with the
  6479. following error messages: "Error: ft2232.c:201 ft2232_read(): FT_Read returned:
  6480. 4" and "Error: ft2232.c:365 ft2232_send_and_recv(): couldn't read from FT2232".
  6481. What does that mean and what might be the reason for this?
  6482. First of all, the reason might be the USB power supply. Try using a self-powered
  6483. hub instead of a direct connection to your computer. Secondly, the error code 4
  6484. corresponds to an FT_IO_ERROR, which means that the driver for the FTDI USB
  6485. chip ran into some sort of error - this points us to a USB problem.
  6486. @item @b{GDB Disconnects} When using the Amontec JTAGkey, sometimes OpenOCD crashes with the following
  6487. error message: "Error: gdb_server.c:101 gdb_get_char(): read: 10054".
  6488. What does that mean and what might be the reason for this?
  6489. Error code 10054 corresponds to WSAECONNRESET, which means that the debugger (GDB)
  6490. has closed the connection to OpenOCD. This might be a GDB issue.
  6491. @item @b{LPC2000 Flash} In the configuration file in the section where flash device configurations
  6492. are described, there is a parameter for specifying the clock frequency
  6493. for LPC2000 internal flash devices (e.g. @option{flash bank $_FLASHNAME lpc2000
  6494. 0x0 0x40000 0 0 $_TARGETNAME lpc2000_v1 14746 calc_checksum}), which must be
  6495. specified in kilohertz. However, I do have a quartz crystal of a
  6496. frequency that contains fractions of kilohertz (e.g. 14,745,600 Hz,
  6497. i.e. 14,745.600 kHz). Is it possible to specify real numbers for the
  6498. clock frequency?
  6499. No. The clock frequency specified here must be given as an integral number.
  6500. However, this clock frequency is used by the In-Application-Programming (IAP)
  6501. routines of the LPC2000 family only, which seems to be very tolerant concerning
  6502. the given clock frequency, so a slight difference between the specified clock
  6503. frequency and the actual clock frequency will not cause any trouble.
  6504. @item @b{Command Order} Do I have to keep a specific order for the commands in the configuration file?
  6505. Well, yes and no. Commands can be given in arbitrary order, yet the
  6506. devices listed for the JTAG scan chain must be given in the right
  6507. order (jtag newdevice), with the device closest to the TDO-Pin being
  6508. listed first. In general, whenever objects of the same type exist
  6509. which require an index number, then these objects must be given in the
  6510. right order (jtag newtap, targets and flash banks - a target
  6511. references a jtag newtap and a flash bank references a target).
  6512. You can use the ``scan_chain'' command to verify and display the tap order.
  6513. Also, some commands can't execute until after @command{init} has been
  6514. processed. Such commands include @command{nand probe} and everything
  6515. else that needs to write to controller registers, perhaps for setting
  6516. up DRAM and loading it with code.
  6517. @anchor{FAQ TAP Order}
  6518. @item @b{JTAG TAP Order} Do I have to declare the TAPS in some
  6519. particular order?
  6520. Yes; whenever you have more than one, you must declare them in
  6521. the same order used by the hardware.
  6522. Many newer devices have multiple JTAG TAPs. For example: ST
  6523. Microsystems STM32 chips have two TAPs, a ``boundary scan TAP'' and
  6524. ``Cortex-M3'' TAP. Example: The STM32 reference manual, Document ID:
  6525. RM0008, Section 26.5, Figure 259, page 651/681, the ``TDI'' pin is
  6526. connected to the boundary scan TAP, which then connects to the
  6527. Cortex-M3 TAP, which then connects to the TDO pin.
  6528. Thus, the proper order for the STM32 chip is: (1) The Cortex-M3, then
  6529. (2) The boundary scan TAP. If your board includes an additional JTAG
  6530. chip in the scan chain (for example a Xilinx CPLD or FPGA) you could
  6531. place it before or after the STM32 chip in the chain. For example:
  6532. @itemize @bullet
  6533. @item OpenOCD_TDI(output) -> STM32 TDI Pin (BS Input)
  6534. @item STM32 BS TDO (output) -> STM32 Cortex-M3 TDI (input)
  6535. @item STM32 Cortex-M3 TDO (output) -> SM32 TDO Pin
  6536. @item STM32 TDO Pin (output) -> Xilinx TDI Pin (input)
  6537. @item Xilinx TDO Pin -> OpenOCD TDO (input)
  6538. @end itemize
  6539. The ``jtag device'' commands would thus be in the order shown below. Note:
  6540. @itemize @bullet
  6541. @item jtag newtap Xilinx tap -irlen ...
  6542. @item jtag newtap stm32 cpu -irlen ...
  6543. @item jtag newtap stm32 bs -irlen ...
  6544. @item # Create the debug target and say where it is
  6545. @item target create stm32.cpu -chain-position stm32.cpu ...
  6546. @end itemize
  6547. @item @b{SYSCOMP} Sometimes my debugging session terminates with an error. When I look into the
  6548. log file, I can see these error messages: Error: arm7_9_common.c:561
  6549. arm7_9_execute_sys_speed(): timeout waiting for SYSCOMP
  6550. TODO.

  6552. @node Tcl Crash Course
  6553. @chapter Tcl Crash Course
  6554. @cindex Tcl
  6555. Not everyone knows Tcl - this is not intended to be a replacement for
  6556. learning Tcl, the intent of this chapter is to give you some idea of
  6557. how the Tcl scripts work.
  6558. This chapter is written with two audiences in mind. (1) OpenOCD users
  6559. who need to understand a bit more of how Jim-Tcl works so they can do
  6560. something useful, and (2) those that want to add a new command to
  6561. OpenOCD.
  6562. @section Tcl Rule #1
  6563. There is a famous joke, it goes like this:
  6564. @enumerate
  6565. @item Rule #1: The wife is always correct
  6566. @item Rule #2: If you think otherwise, See Rule #1
  6567. @end enumerate
  6568. The Tcl equal is this:
  6569. @enumerate
  6570. @item Rule #1: Everything is a string
  6571. @item Rule #2: If you think otherwise, See Rule #1
  6572. @end enumerate
  6573. As in the famous joke, the consequences of Rule #1 are profound. Once
  6574. you understand Rule #1, you will understand Tcl.
  6575. @section Tcl Rule #1b
  6576. There is a second pair of rules.
  6577. @enumerate
  6578. @item Rule #1: Control flow does not exist. Only commands
  6579. @* For example: the classic FOR loop or IF statement is not a control
  6580. flow item, they are commands, there is no such thing as control flow
  6581. in Tcl.
  6582. @item Rule #2: If you think otherwise, See Rule #1
  6583. @* Actually what happens is this: There are commands that by
  6584. convention, act like control flow key words in other languages. One of
  6585. those commands is the word ``for'', another command is ``if''.
  6586. @end enumerate
  6587. @section Per Rule #1 - All Results are strings
  6588. Every Tcl command results in a string. The word ``result'' is used
  6589. deliberatly. No result is just an empty string. Remember: @i{Rule #1 -
  6590. Everything is a string}
  6591. @section Tcl Quoting Operators
  6592. In life of a Tcl script, there are two important periods of time, the
  6593. difference is subtle.
  6594. @enumerate
  6595. @item Parse Time
  6596. @item Evaluation Time
  6597. @end enumerate
  6598. The two key items here are how ``quoted things'' work in Tcl. Tcl has
  6599. three primary quoting constructs, the [square-brackets] the
  6600. @{curly-braces@} and ``double-quotes''
  6601. By now you should know $VARIABLES always start with a $DOLLAR
  6602. sign. BTW: To set a variable, you actually use the command ``set'', as
  6603. in ``set VARNAME VALUE'' much like the ancient BASIC langauge ``let x
  6604. = 1'' statement, but without the equal sign.
  6605. @itemize @bullet
  6606. @item @b{[square-brackets]}
  6607. @* @b{[square-brackets]} are command substitutions. It operates much
  6608. like Unix Shell `back-ticks`. The result of a [square-bracket]
  6609. operation is exactly 1 string. @i{Remember Rule #1 - Everything is a
  6610. string}. These two statements are roughly identical:
  6611. @example
  6612. # bash example
  6613. X=`date`
  6614. echo "The Date is: $X"
  6615. # Tcl example
  6616. set X [date]
  6617. puts "The Date is: $X"
  6618. @end example
  6619. @item @b{``double-quoted-things''}
  6620. @* @b{``double-quoted-things''} are just simply quoted
  6621. text. $VARIABLES and [square-brackets] are expanded in place - the
  6622. result however is exactly 1 string. @i{Remember Rule #1 - Everything
  6623. is a string}
  6624. @example
  6625. set x "Dinner"
  6626. puts "It is now \"[date]\", $x is in 1 hour"
  6627. @end example
  6628. @item @b{@{Curly-Braces@}}
  6629. @*@b{@{Curly-Braces@}} are magic: $VARIABLES and [square-brackets] are
  6630. parsed, but are NOT expanded or executed. @{Curly-Braces@} are like
  6631. 'single-quote' operators in BASH shell scripts, with the added
  6632. feature: @{curly-braces@} can be nested, single quotes can not. @{@{@{this is
  6633. nested 3 times@}@}@} NOTE: [date] is a bad example;
  6634. at this writing, Jim/OpenOCD does not have a date command.
  6635. @end itemize
  6636. @section Consequences of Rule 1/2/3/4
  6637. The consequences of Rule 1 are profound.
  6638. @subsection Tokenisation & Execution.
  6639. Of course, whitespace, blank lines and #comment lines are handled in
  6640. the normal way.
  6641. As a script is parsed, each (multi) line in the script file is
  6642. tokenised and according to the quoting rules. After tokenisation, that
  6643. line is immedatly executed.
  6644. Multi line statements end with one or more ``still-open''
  6645. @{curly-braces@} which - eventually - closes a few lines later.
  6646. @subsection Command Execution
  6647. Remember earlier: There are no ``control flow''
  6648. statements in Tcl. Instead there are COMMANDS that simply act like
  6649. control flow operators.
  6650. Commands are executed like this:
  6651. @enumerate
  6652. @item Parse the next line into (argc) and (argv[]).
  6653. @item Look up (argv[0]) in a table and call its function.
  6654. @item Repeat until End Of File.
  6655. @end enumerate
  6656. It sort of works like this:
  6657. @example
  6658. for(;;)@{
  6659. ReadAndParse( &argc, &argv );
  6660. cmdPtr = LookupCommand( argv[0] );
  6661. (*cmdPtr->Execute)( argc, argv );
  6662. @}
  6663. @end example
  6664. When the command ``proc'' is parsed (which creates a procedure
  6665. function) it gets 3 parameters on the command line. @b{1} the name of
  6666. the proc (function), @b{2} the list of parameters, and @b{3} the body
  6667. of the function. Not the choice of words: LIST and BODY. The PROC
  6668. command stores these items in a table somewhere so it can be found by
  6669. ``LookupCommand()''
  6670. @subsection The FOR command
  6671. The most interesting command to look at is the FOR command. In Tcl,
  6672. the FOR command is normally implemented in C. Remember, FOR is a
  6673. command just like any other command.
  6674. When the ascii text containing the FOR command is parsed, the parser
  6675. produces 5 parameter strings, @i{(If in doubt: Refer to Rule #1)} they
  6676. are:
  6677. @enumerate 0
  6678. @item The ascii text 'for'
  6679. @item The start text
  6680. @item The test expression
  6681. @item The next text
  6682. @item The body text
  6683. @end enumerate
  6684. Sort of reminds you of ``main( int argc, char **argv )'' does it not?
  6685. Remember @i{Rule #1 - Everything is a string.} The key point is this:
  6686. Often many of those parameters are in @{curly-braces@} - thus the
  6687. variables inside are not expanded or replaced until later.
  6688. Remember that every Tcl command looks like the classic ``main( argc,
  6689. argv )'' function in C. In JimTCL - they actually look like this:
  6690. @example
  6691. int
  6692. MyCommand( Jim_Interp *interp,
  6693. int *argc,
  6694. Jim_Obj * const *argvs );
  6695. @end example
  6696. Real Tcl is nearly identical. Although the newer versions have
  6697. introduced a byte-code parser and intepreter, but at the core, it
  6698. still operates in the same basic way.
  6699. @subsection FOR command implementation
  6700. To understand Tcl it is perhaps most helpful to see the FOR
  6701. command. Remember, it is a COMMAND not a control flow structure.
  6702. In Tcl there are two underlying C helper functions.
  6703. Remember Rule #1 - You are a string.
  6704. The @b{first} helper parses and executes commands found in an ascii
  6705. string. Commands can be seperated by semicolons, or newlines. While
  6706. parsing, variables are expanded via the quoting rules.
  6707. The @b{second} helper evaluates an ascii string as a numerical
  6708. expression and returns a value.
  6709. Here is an example of how the @b{FOR} command could be
  6710. implemented. The pseudo code below does not show error handling.
  6711. @example
  6712. void Execute_AsciiString( void *interp, const char *string );
  6713. int Evaluate_AsciiExpression( void *interp, const char *string );
  6714. int
  6715. MyForCommand( void *interp,
  6716. int argc,
  6717. char **argv )
  6718. @{
  6719. if( argc != 5 )@{
  6720. SetResult( interp, "WRONG number of parameters");
  6721. return ERROR;
  6722. @}
  6723. // argv[0] = the ascii string just like C
  6724. // Execute the start statement.
  6725. Execute_AsciiString( interp, argv[1] );
  6726. // Top of loop test
  6727. for(;;)@{
  6728. i = Evaluate_AsciiExpression(interp, argv[2]);
  6729. if( i == 0 )
  6730. break;
  6731. // Execute the body
  6732. Execute_AsciiString( interp, argv[3] );
  6733. // Execute the LOOP part
  6734. Execute_AsciiString( interp, argv[4] );
  6735. @}
  6736. // Return no error
  6737. SetResult( interp, "" );
  6738. return SUCCESS;
  6739. @}
  6740. @end example
  6741. Every other command IF, WHILE, FORMAT, PUTS, EXPR, everything works
  6742. in the same basic way.
  6743. @section OpenOCD Tcl Usage
  6744. @subsection source and find commands
  6745. @b{Where:} In many configuration files
  6746. @* Example: @b{ source [find FILENAME] }
  6747. @*Remember the parsing rules
  6748. @enumerate
  6749. @item The @command{find} command is in square brackets,
  6750. and is executed with the parameter FILENAME. It should find and return
  6751. the full path to a file with that name; it uses an internal search path.
  6752. The RESULT is a string, which is substituted into the command line in
  6753. place of the bracketed @command{find} command.
  6754. (Don't try to use a FILENAME which includes the "#" character.
  6755. That character begins Tcl comments.)
  6756. @item The @command{source} command is executed with the resulting filename;
  6757. it reads a file and executes as a script.
  6758. @end enumerate
  6759. @subsection format command
  6760. @b{Where:} Generally occurs in numerous places.
  6761. @* Tcl has no command like @b{printf()}, instead it has @b{format}, which is really more like
  6762. @b{sprintf()}.
  6763. @b{Example}
  6764. @example
  6765. set x 6
  6766. set y 7
  6767. puts [format "The answer: %d" [expr $x * $y]]
  6768. @end example
  6769. @enumerate
  6770. @item The SET command creates 2 variables, X and Y.
  6771. @item The double [nested] EXPR command performs math
  6772. @* The EXPR command produces numerical result as a string.
  6773. @* Refer to Rule #1
  6774. @item The format command is executed, producing a single string
  6775. @* Refer to Rule #1.
  6776. @item The PUTS command outputs the text.
  6777. @end enumerate
  6778. @subsection Body or Inlined Text
  6779. @b{Where:} Various TARGET scripts.
  6780. @example
  6781. #1 Good
  6782. proc someproc @{@} @{
  6783. ... multiple lines of stuff ...
  6784. @}
  6785. $_TARGETNAME configure -event FOO someproc

  6792. #4 DANGER DANGER DANGER
  6793. $_TARGETNAME configure -event foo "puts \"Time: [date]\""
  6794. @end example
  6795. @enumerate
  6796. @item The $_TARGETNAME is an OpenOCD variable convention.
  6797. @*@b{$_TARGETNAME} represents the last target created, the value changes
  6798. each time a new target is created. Remember the parsing rules. When
  6799. the ascii text is parsed, the @b{$_TARGETNAME} becomes a simple string,
  6800. the name of the target which happens to be a TARGET (object)
  6801. command.
  6802. @item The 2nd parameter to the @option{-event} parameter is a TCBODY
  6803. @*There are 4 examples:
  6804. @enumerate
  6805. @item The TCLBODY is a simple string that happens to be a proc name
  6806. @item The TCLBODY is several simple commands seperated by semicolons
  6807. @item The TCLBODY is a multi-line @{curly-brace@} quoted string
  6808. @item The TCLBODY is a string with variables that get expanded.
  6809. @end enumerate
  6810. In the end, when the target event FOO occurs the TCLBODY is
  6811. evaluated. Method @b{#1} and @b{#2} are functionally identical. For
  6812. Method @b{#3} and @b{#4} it is more interesting. What is the TCLBODY?
  6813. Remember the parsing rules. In case #3, @{curly-braces@} mean the
  6814. $VARS and [square-brackets] are expanded later, when the EVENT occurs,
  6815. and the text is evaluated. In case #4, they are replaced before the
  6816. ``Target Object Command'' is executed. This occurs at the same time
  6817. $_TARGETNAME is replaced. In case #4 the date will never
  6818. change. @{BTW: [date] is a bad example; at this writing,
  6819. Jim/OpenOCD does not have a date command@}
  6820. @end enumerate
  6821. @subsection Global Variables
  6822. @b{Where:} You might discover this when writing your own procs @* In
  6823. simple terms: Inside a PROC, if you need to access a global variable
  6824. you must say so. See also ``upvar''. Example:
