To All Ye Linaro Toolchain Folk, (and OpenOCD developers too)
After a week of reading specifications and code, I am ready to start doing some serious hacking on OpenOCD. The following outlines my present plans and expectations, with the caveat that time can change everything.
Last week, I started testing my BeagleBoard with OpenOCD, so I have begun trying to validate and improve the Cortex-A8 support. Indeed, I have already committed a minor patch that fixed a bug in the trunk caused by new command syntax required to distinguish physical memory addresses from virtual ones. That bug had been preventing the BeagleBoard support from working for several months, so this seems to show that nobody has been using (or even testing) the latest code with that board.
Zach, this is great news, do you have a git tree set up, or can you send the patch? I was trying to do some u-boot debug with OpenOCD last week and had to go back to a March commit for it to work. I wasn't sure if I was doing something wrong so I had not yet sent an email to the mailing list.
