OpenOCD

Usage (2015-01-01):

Download the .zip file

$ cp Downloads/openocd-head-20150101-linux-64bit.zip /tmp (adjust for wherever you downloaded it to)

$ sudo -s

# cd /opt

# mkdir openocd

# cd openocd

# unzip /tmp/openocd-head-20150101-linux-64bit.zip

# chmod -R o+rX .

# ln -s head.20150101 default

Usage (2016-07-20):

Use similar commands as above.

NOTE: the tiva connected launchpad may be broken in this release. I have not tested and had bad experience with OpenOCD head before.

Using SWD for debugging/loading:

I have the Olimex ARM-USB-TINY-H programmer with JTAG port. With a simple wiring hack this can be used in SWD mode as follows:

- Use the 2016-07-20 version of openocd, downloadable here. (UPDATE: it also seems to work with the 20150101 version and consequently a production 0.9.0 version that you may have an official installer for from your distro.)

- SWCLK of the target to TCK of the debugger (this is a straight connection).

- The SWDIO (TMS) pin of the target side is connected to two pins on the JTAG emulator:

* Directly to the TDO pin of the emulator

* through a 470 ohm resistor to the TDI pin of the emulator.

(note that it is NOT connected "straight" to the TMS pin of the emulator).

Then use commandlines like this: (quoted from applications/blink_raw/targets/freertos.armv7m.ti-launchpad-cc3200/Makefile)

OPENOCDARGS = -f interface/ftdi/olimex-arm-usb-tiny-h.cfg -f interface/ftdi/swd-resistor-hack.cfg -f target/cc32xx.cfg
