2009-12-18NOR FLASH: only erase/unlock whole sectorsDavid Brownell1-0/+2
Much to my surprise, I observed a "flash erase_address ..." command erasing data which I said should not be erased. The issue turns out to be generic NOR flash code which was silently, and rather dangerously, morphing partial-sector references into unrequested whole-sector ones. This patch removes that low-level morphing. If desired, it can and should be done in higher level code. (We might need to fix some stuff in the GDB server code.)

2009-12-03basic ARM semihosting supportNicolas Pitre1-0/+1
Semihosting enables code running on an ARM target to use the I/O facilities on the host computer. The target application must be linked against a library that forwards operation requests by using the SVC instruction that is trapped at the Supervisor Call vector by the debugger. The "hosted" library version provided with CodeSourcery's Sourcery G++ Lite for ARM EABI is one example. This is currently available for ARM9 processors, but any ARM variant should be able to support this with little additional work. Tested using binaries compiled with Sourcery G++ Lite 2009q1-161 and ARM RVCT 3.0.

Mention changes to flash bank command syntax, 'nand verify' command, command error handling and reporting, and help/usage command upgrades.
2009-11-24support for scripts in $HOME/.openocdAndreas Fritiofson1-0/+1
Add $HOME/.openocd as the first default script search directory, allowing the user to override the standard scripts. Update the user guide with information on where OpenOCD expects to find configuration files and scripts. Also fixed some minor formatting issues. Add entry to NEWS as well.

2009-11-16ARM: "armv4_5" command prefix becomes "arm"David Brownell1-0/+2
Rename the "armv4_5" command prefix to straight "arm" so it makes more sense for newer cores. Add a simple compatibility script. Make sure all the commands give the same "not an ARM" diagnostic message (and fail properly) when called against non-ARM targets. Signed-off-by: David Brownell <dbrownell@users.sourceforge.net>
2009-11-15ARM11: use now-generic memory utilsDavid Brownell1-0/+8
Now the ARM11 cores can use the renamed arm_checksum_memory() and arm_blank_check_memory() routines ... do so. Sanity checked with "flash erase_check" of both NOR banks on an OMAP2420 ... the algorithm code dumped four lines of of "poll" status after each of almost 520 blocks (yes, *very* annoying) but gave plausible results after producing that spam.

There were a few more changes worth mentioning, including support for more JTAG adapters, boundary scan improvements, another NAND driver, and the Win64 stuff. Signed-off-by: David Brownell <dbrownell@users.sourceforge.net>
2009-10-25ARM: rename "arm9tdmi vector_catch" to "arm9 ..."David Brownell1-0/+2
And update doc accordingly. That EmbeddedICE register was introduced for ARM9TDMI and then carried forward into most new chips that use EmbeddedICE.
2009-10-08make PXA255 targets enumerate sort-of-OKDavid Brownell1-0/+1
Startup now mostly works, except that the initial target state is "unknown" ... previously, it refused to even start. Getting that far required fixing the ircapture value (which can never have been correct!) and the default JTAG clock rate, then providing custom reset script. The "reset" command is still iffy. DCSR updates, and loading the debug handler, report numerous DR/IR capture failures. But once that's done, "poll" reports that the CPU is halted (which it shouldn't be, this was "reset run"!), due to the rather curious reason "target-not-halted". Summary: you still can't debug these parts, but it's closer. Signed-off-by: David Brownell <dbrownell@users.sourceforge.net>
2009-10-08add overridable Tcl "init_reset"David Brownell1-0/+1
This abstracts the "jtag arp_init-reset" call into a method called from OpenOCD startup and reset processing. Platforms which have different requirements for how such hard resets must be performed can now override "init_reset" instead of needing to rebuild custom hacked versions of the server.
