The targets are interfaced using JTAG (IEEE 1149.1) compliant hardware, but this may be extended to other connection types in the future. Openocd currently supports Wiggler (clones), FTDI FT2232 based JTAG interfaces, the Amontec JTAG Accelerator, and the Gateworks GW1602. It allows ARM7 (ARM7TDMI and ARM720t), ARM9 (ARM920t, ARM922t, ARM926ej--s, ARM966e--s), XScale (PXA25x, IXP42x) and Cortex-M3 (Luminary Stellaris LM3 and ST STM32) based cores to be debugged. Flash writing is supported for external CFI compatible flashes (Intel and AMD/Spansion command set) and several internal flashes (LPC2000, AT91SAM7, STR7x, STR9x, LM3 and STM32x). Preliminary support for using the LPC3180's NAND flash controller is included. @node Developers @chapter Developers @cindex developers Openocd has been created by Dominic Rath as part of a diploma thesis written at the University of Applied Sciences Augsburg (@uref{http://www.fh-augsburg.de}). Others interested in improving the state of free and open debug and testing technology are welcome to participate. Other developers have contributed support for additional targets and flashes as well as numerous bugfixes and enhancements. See the AUTHORS file for regular contributors. @node Building @chapter Building @cindex building openocd You can download the current SVN version with SVN client of your choice from the following repositories: (@uref{svn://svn.berlios.de/openocd/trunk}) or (@uref{http://svn.berlios.de/svnroot/repos/openocd/trunk}) Using the SVN command line client, you could use the following command to fetch the latest version (make sure there is no (non-svn) directory called "openocd" in the current directory): @smallexample svn checkout svn://svn.berlios.de/openocd/trunk openocd @end smallexample Building the OpenOCD requires a recent version of the GNU autotools. On my build system, I'm using autoconf 2.13 and automake 1.9. For building on Windows, you have to use Cygwin. Make sure that your @env{PATH} environment variable contains no other locations with Unix utils (like UnxUtils) - these can't handle the Cygwin paths, resulting in obscure dependency errors (This is an observation I've gathered from the logs of one user - correct me if I'm wrong). You further need the appropriate driver files, if you want to build support for a FTDI FT2232 based interface: @itemize @bullet @item @b{ftdi2232} libftdi (@uref{http://www.intra2net.com/opensource/ftdi/}) @item @b{ftd2xx} libftd2xx (@uref{http://www.ftdichip.com/Drivers/D2XX.htm}) @item When using the Amontec JTAGkey, you have to get the drivers from the Amontec homepage (@uref{www.amontec.com}), as the JTAGkey uses a non-standard VID/PID. @end itemize Please note that the ftdi2232 variant (using libftdi) isn't supported under Cygwin. You have to use the ftd2xx variant (using FTDI's D2XX) on Cygwin. In general, the D2XX driver provides superior performance (several times as fast), but has the draw-back of being binary-only - though that isn't as worse, as it isn't a kernel module, only a user space library. To build OpenOCD (on both Linux and Cygwin), use the following commands: @smallexample ./bootstrap @end smallexample Bootstrap generates the configure script, and prepares building on your system. @smallexample ./configure @end smallexample Configure generates the Makefiles used to build OpenOCD. @smallexample make @end smallexample Make builds the OpenOCD, and places the final executable in ./src/. The configure script takes several options, specifying which JTAG interfaces should be included: @itemize @bullet @item @option{--enable-parport} @item @option{--enable-parport_ppdev} @item @option{--enable-parport_giveio} @item @option{--enable-amtjtagaccel} @item @option{--enable-ft2232_ftd2xx} @footnote{Using the latest D2XX drivers from FTDI and following their installation instructions, I had to use @option{--enable-ft2232_libftd2xx} for the OpenOCD to build properly.} @item @option{--enable-ft2232_libftdi} @item @option{--with-ftd2xx=/path/to/d2xx/} @item @option{--enable-gw16012} @item @option{--enable-usbprog} @item @option{--enable-presto_libftdi} @item @option{--enable-presto_ftd2xx} @end itemize If you want to access the parallel port using the PPDEV interface you have to specify both the @option{--enable-parport} AND the @option{--enable-parport_ppdev} option since the @option{--enable-parport_ppdev} option actually is an option to the parport driver (see @uref{http://forum.sparkfun.com/viewtopic.php?t=3795} for more info). Cygwin users have to specify the location of the FTDI D2XX package. This should be an absolute path containing no spaces. Linux users should copy the various parts of the D2XX package to the appropriate locations, i.e. /usr/include, /usr/lib. @node Running @chapter Running @cindex running openocd @cindex --configfile @cindex --debug_level @cindex --logfile @cindex --search The OpenOCD runs as a daemon, waiting for connections from clients (Telnet or GDB). Run with @option{--help} or @option{-h} to view the available command line arguments. It reads its configuration by default from the file openocd.cfg located in the current working directory. This may be overwritten with the @option{-f } command line switch. @option{-f} can be specified multiple times, in which case the config files are executed in order. Also it is possible to interleave commands w/config scripts using the @option{-c}. To enable debug output (when reporting problems or working on OpenOCD itself), use the @option{-d} command line switch. This sets the debug_level to "3", outputting the most information, including debug messages. The default setting is "2", outputting only informational messages, warnings and errors. You can also change this setting from within a telnet or gdb session (@option{debug_level }). You can redirect all output from the daemon to a file using the @option{-l } switch. Search paths for config/script files can be added to openocd by using the @option{-s } switch. The current directory and the OpenOCD target library is in the search path by default. NB! OpenOCD will launch the GDB & telnet server even if it can not establish a connection with the target. In general, it is possible for the JTAG controller to be unresponsive until the target is set up correctly via e.g. GDB monitor commands in a GDB init script. @node Configuration @chapter Configuration @cindex configuration The Open On-Chip Debugger (OpenOCD) runs as a daemon, and reads it current configuration by default from the file openocd.cfg in the current directory. A different configuration file can be specified with the @option{-f } given at the openocd command line. The configuration file is used to specify on which ports the daemon listens for new connections, the JTAG interface used to connect to the target, the layout of the JTAG chain, the targets that should be debugged, and connected flashes. @section Daemon configuration @itemize @bullet @item @b{init} This command terminates the configuration stage and enters the normal command mode. This can be useful to add commands to the startup scripts and commands such as resetting the target, programming flash, etc. @cindex init @item @b{telnet_port} <@var{number}> @cindex telnet_port Port on which to listen for incoming telnet connections @item @b{gdb_port} <@var{number}> @cindex gdb_port First port on which to listen for incoming GDB connections. The GDB port for the first target will be gdb_port, the second target will listen on gdb_port + 1, and so on. @item @b{gdb_detach} <@var{resume|reset|halt|nothing}> @cindex gdb_detach Configures what openocd will do when gdb detaches from the daeman. Default behaviour is <@var{resume}> @item @b{gdb_memory_map} <@var{enable|disable}> @cindex gdb_memory_map Set to <@var{enable}> so that openocd will send the memory configuration to gdb when requested. gdb will then know when to set hardware breakpoints, and program flash using the gdb load command. @option{gdb_flash_program enable} will also need enabling for flash programming to work. Default behaviour is <@var{disable}> @item @b{gdb_flash_program} <@var{enable|disable}> @cindex gdb_flash_program Set to <@var{enable}> so that openocd will program the flash memory when a vFlash packet is received. Default behaviour is <@var{disable}> @item @b{daemon_startup} <@var{mode}> @cindex daemon_startup @option{mode} can either @option{attach} or @option{reset} Tells the OpenOCD whether it should reset the target when the daemon is launched, or if it should just attach to the target. @end itemize @section JTAG interface configuration @itemize @bullet @item @b{interface} <@var{name}> @cindex interface Use the interface driver <@var{name}> to connect to the target. Currently supported interfaces are @itemize @minus @item @b{parport} PC parallel port bit-banging (Wigglers, PLD download cable, ...) @end itemize @itemize @minus @item @b{amt_jtagaccel} Amontec Chameleon in its JTAG Accelerator configuration connected to a PC's EPP mode parallel port @end itemize @itemize @minus @item @b{ft2232} FTDI FT2232 based devices using either the open-source libftdi or the binary only FTD2XX driver. The FTD2XX is superior in performance, but not available on every platform. The libftdi uses libusb, and should be portable to all systems that provide libusb. @end itemize @itemize @minus @item @b{ep93xx} Cirrus Logic EP93xx based single-board computer bit-banging (in development) @end itemize @itemize @minus @item @b{presto} ASIX PRESTO USB JTAG programmer. @end itemize @itemize @minus @item @b{usbprog} usbprog is a freely programmable USB adapter. @end itemize @itemize @minus @item @b{gw16012} Gateworks GW16012 JTAG programmer. @end itemize @end itemize @itemize @bullet @item @b{jtag_speed} <@var{reset speed}> <@var{post reset speed}> @cindex jtag_speed Limit the maximum speed of the JTAG interface. Usually, a value of zero means maximum speed. The actual effect of this option depends on the JTAG interface used. Reset speed is used during reset and post reset speed after reset. post reset speed is optional, in which case the reset speed is used. @itemize @minus @item wiggler: maximum speed / @var{number} @item ft2232: 6MHz / (@var{number}+1) @item amt jtagaccel: 8 / 2**@var{number} @end itemize Note: Make sure the jtag clock is no more than @math{1/6th × CPU-Clock}. This is especially true for synthesized cores (-S). @item @b{jtag_khz} <@var{reset speed kHz}> <@var{post reset speed kHz}> @cindex jtag_khz Same as jtag_speed, except that the speed is specified in maximum kHz. If the device can not support the rate asked for, or can not translate from kHz to jtag_speed, then an error is returned. 0 means RTCK. If RTCK is not supported, then an error is reported. @item @b{reset_config} <@var{signals}> [@var{combination}] [@var{trst_type}] [@var{srst_type}] @cindex reset_config The configuration of the reset signals available on the JTAG interface AND the target. If the JTAG interface provides SRST, but the target doesn't connect that signal properly, then OpenOCD can't use it. <@var{signals}> can be @option{none}, @option{trst_only}, @option{srst_only} or @option{trst_and_srst}. [@var{combination}] is an optional value specifying broken reset signal implementations. @option{srst_pulls_trst} states that the testlogic is reset together with the reset of the system (e.g. Philips LPC2000, "broken" board layout), @option{trst_pulls_srst} says that the system is reset together with the test logic (only hypothetical, I haven't seen hardware with such a bug, and can be worked around). @option{combined} imples both @option{srst_pulls_trst} and @option{trst_pulls_srst}. The default behaviour if no option given is @option{separate}. The [@var{trst_type}] and [@var{srst_type}] parameters allow the driver type of the reset lines to be specified. Possible values are @option{trst_push_pull} (default) and @option{trst_open_drain} for the test reset signal, and @option{srst_open_drain} (default) and @option{srst_push_pull} for the system reset. These values only affect JTAG interfaces with support for different drivers, like the Amontec JTAGkey and JTAGAccelerator. @item @b{jtag_device} <@var{IR length}> <@var{IR capture}> <@var{IR mask}> <@var{IDCODE instruction}> @cindex jtag_device Describes the devices that form the JTAG daisy chain, with the first device being the one closest to TDO. The parameters are the length of the instruction register (4 for all ARM7/9s), the value captured during Capture-IR (0x1 for ARM7/9), and a mask of bits that should be validated when doing IR scans (all four bits (0xf) for ARM7/9). The IDCODE instruction will in future be used to query devices for their JTAG identification code. This line is the same for all ARM7 and ARM9 devices. Other devices, like CPLDs, require different parameters. An example configuration line for a Xilinx XC9500 CPLD would look like this: @smallexample jtag_device 8 0x01 0x0e3 0xfe @end smallexample The instruction register (IR) is 8 bits long, during Capture-IR 0x01 is loaded into the IR, but only bits 0-1 and 5-7 should be checked, the others (2-4) might vary. The IDCODE instruction is 0xfe. @item @b{jtag_nsrst_delay} <@var{ms}> @cindex jtag_nsrst_delay How long (in miliseconds) the OpenOCD should wait after deasserting nSRST before starting new JTAG operations. @item @b{jtag_ntrst_delay} <@var{ms}> @cindex jtag_ntrst_delay How long (in miliseconds) the OpenOCD should wait after deasserting nTRST before starting new JTAG operations. The jtag_n[st]rst_delay options are useful if reset circuitry (like a reset supervisor, or on-chip features) keep a reset line asserted for some time after the external reset got deasserted. @end itemize @section parport options @itemize @bullet @item @b{parport_port} <@var{number}> @cindex parport_port Either the address of the I/O port (default: 0x378 for LPT1) or the number of the @file{/dev/parport} device When using PPDEV to access the parallel port, use the number of the parallel port: @option{parport_port 0} (the default). If @option{parport_port 0x378} is specified you may encounter a problem. @item @b{parport_cable} <@var{name}> @cindex parport_cable The layout of the parallel port cable used to connect to the target. Currently supported cables are @itemize @minus @item @b{wiggler} @cindex wiggler Original Wiggler layout, also supported by several clones, such as the Olimex ARM-JTAG @item @b{old_amt_wiggler} @cindex old_amt_wiggler The Wiggler configuration that comes with Amontec's Chameleon Programmer. The new version available from the website uses the original Wiggler layout ('@var{wiggler}') @item @b{chameleon} @cindex chameleon Describes the connection of the Amontec Chameleon's CPLD when operated in configuration mode. This is only used to program the Chameleon itself, not a connected target. @item @b{dlc5} @cindex dlc5 Xilinx Parallel cable III. @item @b{triton} @cindex triton The parallel port adapter found on the 'Karo Triton 1 Development Board'. This is also the layout used by the HollyGates design (see @uref{http://www.lartmaker.nl/projects/jtag/}). @item @b{flashlink} @cindex flashlink ST Parallel cable. @end itemize @item @b{parport_write_on_exit} <@var{on|off}> @cindex parport_write_on_exit This will configure the parallel driver to write a known value to the parallel interface on exiting openocd @end itemize @section amt_jtagaccel options @itemize @bullet @item @b{parport_port} <@var{number}> @cindex parport_port Either the address of the I/O port (default: 0x378 for LPT1) or the number of the @file{/dev/parport} device @end itemize @section ft2232 options @itemize @bullet @item @b{ft2232_device_desc} <@var{description}> @cindex ft2232_device_desc The USB device description of the FTDI FT2232 device. If not specified, the FTDI default value is used. This setting is only valid if compiled with FTD2XX support. @item @b{ft2232_layout} <@var{name}> @cindex ft2232_layout The layout of the FT2232 GPIO signals used to control output-enables and reset signals.

If not specified, the FTDI default values are used. This command is not available on Windows. @item @b{ft2232_latency} <@var{ms}> On some systems using ft2232 based JTAG interfaces the FT_Read function call in ft2232_read() fails to return the expected number of bytes. This can be caused by USB communication delays and has proved hard to reproduce and debug. Setting the FT2232 latency timer to a larger value increases delays for short USB packages but it also reduces the risk of timeouts before receiving the expected number of bytes. The OpenOCD default value is 2 and for some systems a value of 10 has proved useful. @end itemize @section ep93xx options @cindex ep93xx options Currently, there are no options available for the ep93xx interface. @page @section Target configuration @itemize @bullet @item @b{target} <@var{type}> <@var{endianess}> <@var{reset_mode}> <@var{JTAG pos}> <@var{variant}> @cindex target Defines a target that should be debugged.

The reset_mode specifies what should happen to the target when a reset occurs: @itemize @minus @item @b{reset_halt} @cindex reset_halt Immediately request a target halt after reset. This allows targets to be debugged from the very first instruction. This is only possible with targets and JTAG interfaces that correctly implement the reset signals. @item @b{reset_init} @cindex reset_init Similar to @option{reset_halt}, but executes the script file defined to handle the 'reset' event for the target. Like @option{reset_halt} this only works with correct reset implementations. @item @b{reset_run} @cindex reset_run Simply let the target run after a reset. @item @b{run_and_halt} @cindex run_and_halt Let the target run for some time (default: 1s), and then request halt. @item @b{run_and_init} @cindex run_and_init A combination of @option{reset_init} and @option{run_and_halt}. The target is allowed to run for some time, then halted, and the @option{reset} event script is executed. @end itemize On JTAG interfaces / targets where system reset and test-logic reset can't be driven completely independent (like the LPC2000 series), or where the JTAG interface is unavailable for some time during startup (like the STR7 series), you can't use @option{reset_halt} or @option{reset_init}. @item @b{target_script} <@var{target#}> <@var{event}> <@var{script_file}> @cindex target_script Event is either @option{reset}, @option{post_halt}, @option{pre_resume} or @option{gdb_program_config} TODO: describe exact semantic of events @item @b{run_and_halt_time} <@var{target#}> <@var{time_in_ms}> @cindex run_and_halt_time The amount of time the debugger should wait after releasing reset before it asserts a debug request.

This may be used to speed-up downloads to target memory and flash operations, or to perform otherwise unavailable operations (some coprocessor operations on ARM7/9 systems, for example). The last parameter decides whether the memory should be preserved <@var{backup}>. If possible, use a working_area that doesn't need to be backed up, as that slows down operation. @end itemize @subsection arm7tdmi options @cindex arm7tdmi options target arm7tdmi <@var{endianess}> <@var{reset_mode}> <@var{jtag#}> The arm7tdmi target definition requires at least one additional argument, specifying the position of the target in the JTAG daisy-chain.

These scripts can be used as-is or serve as a starting point. The target library is published together with the openocd executable and the path to the target library is in the OpenOCD script search path. Similarly there are example scripts for configuring the JTAG interface. The command line below uses the example parport configuration scripts that ships with OpenOCD, then configures the str710.cfg target and finally issues the init and reset command. The communication speed is set to 10kHz for reset and 8MHz for post reset. @smallexample openocd -f interface/parport.cfg -c "jtag_khz 10 8000" -f target/str710.cfg -c "init" -c "reset" @end smallexample To list the target scripts available: @smallexample $ ls /usr/local/lib/openocd/target arm7_fast.cfg lm3s6965.cfg pxa255.cfg stm32.cfg xba_revA3.cfg at91eb40a.cfg lpc2148.cfg pxa255_sst.cfg str710.cfg zy1000.cfg at91r40008.cfg lpc2294.cfg sam7s256.cfg str912.cfg at91sam9260.cfg nslu2.cfg sam7x256.cfg wi-9c.cfg @end smallexample @node Commands @chapter Commands @cindex commands The Open On-Chip Debugger (OpenOCD) allows user interaction through a telnet interface (default: port 4444) and a GDB server (default: port 3333). The command line interpreter is available from both the telnet interface and a GDB session.

To see a list of available openocd commands type @option{monitor help} on the gdb commandline. Openocd supports the gdb @option{qSupported} packet, this enables information to be sent by the gdb server (openocd) to gdb. Typical information includes packet size and device memory map. Previous versions of openocd required the following gdb options to increase the packet size and speed up gdb communication. @smallexample set remote memory-write-packet-size 1024 set remote memory-write-packet-size fixed set remote memory-read-packet-size 1024 set remote memory-read-packet-size fixed @end smallexample This is now handled in the @option{qSupported} PacketSize. @section Programming using gdb @cindex Programming using gdb By default the target memory map is not sent to gdb, this can be enabled by the following openocd config option: @smallexample gdb_memory_map enable @end smallexample For this to function correctly a valid flash config must also be configured in openocd. For speed also configure a valid working area. Informing gdb of the memory map of the target will enable gdb to protect any flash area of the target and use hardware breakpoints by default. This means that the openocd option @option{arm7_9 force_hw_bkpts} is not required when using a memory map. To view the configured memory map in gdb, use the gdb command @option{info mem} All other unasigned addresses within gdb are treated as RAM. GDB 6.8 and higher set any memory area not in the memory map as inaccessible, this can be changed to the old behaviour by using the following gdb command. @smallexample set mem inaccessible-by-default off @end smallexample If @option{gdb_flash_program enable} is also used, gdb will be able to program any flash memory using the vFlash interface. gdb will look at the target memory map when a load command is given, if any areas to be programmed lie within the target flash area the vFlash packets will be used. Incase the target needs configuring before gdb programming, a script can be executed. @smallexample target_script 0 gdb_program_config config.script @end smallexample To verify any flash programming the gdb command @option{compare-sections} can be used. @node Upgrading @chapter Deprecated/Removed Commands @cindex Deprecated/Removed Commands Certain openocd commands have been deprecated/removed during the various revisions. @itemize @bullet @item @b{load_binary} @cindex load_binary use @option{load_image} command with same args @item @b{dump_binary} @cindex dump_binary use @option{dump_image} command with same args @item @b{flash erase} @cindex flash erase use @option{flash erase_sector} command with same args @item @b{flash write} @cindex flash write use @option{flash write_bank} command with same args @item @b{flash write_binary} @cindex flash write_binary use @option{flash write_bank} command with same args @item @b{arm7_9 fast_writes} @cindex arm7_9 fast_writes use @option{arm7_9 fast_memory_access} command with same args @end itemize @node FAQ @chapter FAQ @cindex faq @enumerate @item OpenOCD complains about a missing cygwin1.dll. Make sure you have Cygwin installed, or at least a version of OpenOCD that claims to come with all the necessary dlls. When using Cygwin, try launching the OpenOCD from the Cygwin shell. @item I'm trying to set a breakpoint using GDB (or a frontend like Insight or Eclipse), but OpenOCD complains that "Info: arm7_9_common.c:213 arm7_9_add_breakpoint(): sw breakpoint requested, but software breakpoints not enabled". GDB issues software breakpoints when a normal breakpoint is requested, or to implement source-line single-stepping. On ARMv4T systems, like ARM7TDMI, ARM720t or ARM920t, software breakpoints consume one of the two available hardware breakpoints, and are therefore disabled by default. If your code is running from RAM, you can enable software breakpoints with the @option{arm7_9 sw_bkpts enable} command. If your code resides in Flash, you can't use software breakpoints, but you can force OpenOCD to use hardware breakpoints instead: @option{arm7_9 force_hw_bkpts enable}. @item When erasing or writing LPC2000 on-chip flash, the operation fails sometimes and works sometimes fine. Make sure the core frequency specified in the @option{flash lpc2000} line matches the clock at the time you're programming the flash. If you've specified the crystal's frequency, make sure the PLL is disabled, if you've specified the full core speed (e.g. 60MHz), make sure the PLL is enabled. @item When debugging using an Amontec Chameleon in its JTAG Accelerator configuration, I keep getting "Error: amt_jtagaccel.c:184 amt_wait_scan_busy(): amt_jtagaccel timed out while waiting for end of scan, rtck was disabled". Make sure your PC's parallel port operates in EPP mode. You might have to try several settings in your PC BIOS (ECP, EPP, and different versions of those). @item When debugging with the OpenOCD and GDB (plain GDB, Insight, or Eclipse), I get lots of "Error: arm7_9_common.c:1771 arm7_9_read_memory(): memory read caused data abort". The errors are non-fatal, and are the result of GDB trying to trace stack frames beyond the last valid frame. It might be possible to prevent this by setting up a proper "initial" stack frame, if you happen to know what exactly has to be done, feel free to add this here. @item I get the following message in the OpenOCD console (or log file): "Warning: arm7_9_common.c:679 arm7_9_assert_reset(): srst resets test logic, too". This warning doesn't indicate any serious problem, as long as you don't want to debug your core right out of reset. Your .cfg file specified @option{jtag_reset trst_and_srst srst_pulls_trst} to tell the OpenOCD that either your board, your debugger or your target uC (e.g. LPC2000) can't assert the two reset signals independently. With this setup, it's not possible to halt the core right out of reset, everything else should work fine. @item When using OpenOCD in conjunction with Amontec JTAGkey and the Yagarto Toolchain (Eclipse, arm-elf-gcc, arm-elf-gdb), the debugging seems to be unstable. When single-stepping over large blocks of code, GDB and OpenOCD quit with an error message. Is there a stability issue with OpenOCD? No, this is not a stability issue concerning OpenOCD. Most users have solved this issue by simply using a self-powered USB hub, which they connect their Amontec JTAGkey to. Apparently, some computers do not provide a USB power supply stable enough for the Amontec JTAGkey to be operated. @item When using the Amontec JTAGkey, sometimes OpenOCD crashes with the following error messages: "Error: ft2232.c:201 ft2232_read(): FT_Read returned: 4" and "Error: ft2232.c:365 ft2232_send_and_recv(): couldn't read from FT2232". What does that mean and what might be the reason for this? First of all, the reason might be the USB power supply. Try using a self-powered hub instead of a direct connection to your computer. Secondly, the error code 4 corresponds to an FT_IO_ERROR, which means that the driver for the FTDI USB chip ran into some sort of error - this points us to a USB problem. @item When using the Amontec JTAGkey, sometimes OpenOCD crashes with the following error message: "Error: gdb_server.c:101 gdb_get_char(): read: 10054". What does that mean and what might be the reason for this? Error code 10054 corresponds to WSAECONNRESET, which means that the debugger (GDB) has closed the connection to OpenOCD. This might be a GDB issue. @item In the configuration file in the section where flash device configurations are described, there is a parameter for specifying the clock frequency for LPC2000 internal flash devices (e.g. @option{flash bank lpc2000 0x0 0x40000 0 0 0 lpc2000_v1 14746 calc_checksum}), which must be specified in kilohertz. However, I do have a quartz crystal of a frequency that contains fractions of kilohertz (e.g. 14,745,600 Hz, i.e. 14,745.600 kHz). Is it possible to specify real numbers for the clock frequency? No. The clock frequency specified here must be given as an integral number. However, this clock frequency is used by the In-Application-Programming (IAP) routines of the LPC2000 family only, which seems to be very tolerant concerning the given clock frequency, so a slight difference between the specified clock frequency and the actual clock frequency will not cause any trouble. @item Do I have to keep a specific order for the commands in the configuration file? Well, yes and no. Commands can be given in arbitrary order, yet the devices listed for the JTAG scan chain must be given in the right order (jtag_device), with the device closest to the TDO-Pin being listed first. In general, whenever objects of the same type exist which require an index number, then these objects must be given in the right order (jtag_devices, targets and flash banks - a target references a jtag_device and a flash bank references a target). @item Sometimes my debugging session terminates with an error. When I look into the log file, I can see these error messages: Error: arm7_9_common.c:561 arm7_9_execute_sys_speed(): timeout waiting for SYSCOMP TODO. @end enumerate @include fdl.texi @node Index @unnumbered Index @printindex cp @bye
