drath 53d1f9b2ca - added manpage for OpenOCD (thanks to Uwe Hermann)
- fixed bug in ARM926EJ-S cache handling that caused cache linefills to be disabled after first debug entry
- added support for auto image type detection (thanks to Vincent Palatin)
- further work on ETM trace decoding (tested with a ETB interface using an ETM in normal 16-bit port mode, still experimental)

.TH "OPENOCD" "1" "May 03, 2007" "" ""
.SH "NAME"
openocd \- A free and open on\-chip debugging, in\-system programming and
boundary\-scan testing tool for ARM systems (currently ARM7/9 and XScale, Cortex\-M3 support to be merged)
.SH "SYNOPSIS"
.B openocd \fR[\fB\-fdlh\fR] [\fB\-\-file\fR <filename>] [\fB\-\-debug\fR <debuglevel>] [\fB\-\-log_output\fR <filename>] [\fB\-\-help]
.SH "DESCRIPTION"
.B OpenOCD
is an on\-chip debugging, in\-system programming and boundary\-scan
testing tool for ARM systems.
.PP
The debugger uses an IEEE 1149\-1 compliant JTAG TAP bus master to access
on\-chip debug functionality available on ARM7/9 and XScale based
microcontrollers / system\-on\-chip solutions.
.PP
User interaction is realized through a telnet command line interface and
a gdb (the GNU debugger) remote protocol server.
.PP
OpenOCD supports various different types of JTAG interfaces/programmers:
* Parallel port wigglers
* Amontec JTAG Accelerator
* FTDI FT2232 based USB devices
* USBJTAG
* OOCD\-Link
* Amontec JTAGkey
* Amontec JTAGkey\-Tiny
* Olimex ARM\-USB\-OCD
* eVerve Signalyzer
* ... other FT2232 based dongles
.PP
It also supports a number of different ARM7/9 cores:
* ARM7TDMI(\-s)
* ARM720t
* ARM9TDMI
* ARM920t
* ARM922t
* ARM926ej\-s
* ARM966e
.PP
Support for Intel XScale CPUs is also included:
* PXA25x
* IXP42x
PXA27x debugging should be similar to the PXA25x but fails in the current
version of OpenOCD.
.SH "OPTIONS"
.TP
.B "\-f, \-\-file <filename>"
Use configuration file
.BR <filename> .
If this option is omitted, the config file
.B openocd.cfg
in the current working directory will be used.
.TP
.B "\-d, \-\-debug <debuglevel>"
Set debug level. Possible values are:
.br
.RB " * " 0 " (errors)"
.br
.RB " * " 1 " (warnings)"
.br
.RB " * " 2 " (informational messages)"
.br
.RB " * " 3 " (debug messages)"
.br
The default level is
.BR 2 .
.TP
.B "\-l, \-\-log_output <filename>"
Redirect log output to the file
.BR <filename> .
Per default the log output is printed on
.BR stderr .
.TP
.B "\-h, \-\-help"
Show a help text and exit.
.\".TP
.\".B "\-v, \-\-version"
.\"Show version information and exit.
.SH "BUGS"
