Perhaps -using automake? - - - -eCos has CFI driver that could probably be compiled -for all targets. The trick is to figure out a -way to make the compiled flash drivers work -on all target memory maps + sort out all the -little details - -32 vs. 64 bit -------------- -Currently OpenOCD only supports 32 bit targets. - -Adding 64 bit support would be nice but there -hasn't been any call for it in the openocd development -mailing list - -target support --------------- -target.h is relatively CPU agnostic and -the intention is to move in the direction of less -instruction set specific. - -Non-CPU targets are also supported, but there isn't -a lot of activity on it in the mailing list currently. -An example is FPGA programming support via JTAG, -but also flash chips can be programmed directly -using JTAG. - -non-JTAG physical layer ------------------------ -JTAG is not the only physical protocol used to talk to -CPUs. - -OpenOCD does not today have targets that use non-JTAG. - -The actual physical layer is a relatively modest part -of the total OpenOCD system. - - -PowerPC -------- -there exists open source implementations of powerpc -target manipulation, but there hasn't been a lot -of activity in the mailing list. - -MIPS ----- -Currently OpenOCD has a MIPS target defined. This is the -first non-ARM example of a CPU target
