Description-en: Open on-chip JTAG debug solution for ARM and MIPS systems
OpenOCD is an on-chip debugging, in-system programming and boundary-scan
testing tool for ARM and MIPS systems.
.
The debugger uses an IEEE 1149-1 compliant JTAG TAP bus master to access
on-chip debug functionality available on ARM based microcontrollers or
system-on-chip solutions. For MIPS systems the EJTAG interface is supported.
.
User interaction is realized through a telnet command line interface,
a gdb (the GNU debugger) remote protocol server, and a simplified RPC
connection that can be used to interface with OpenOCD's Jim Tcl engine.
.
OpenOCD supports many different types of JTAG interfaces/programmers.
