Hello Evan :-) I have abit different idea which is better described at stm32primer2swd.sf.net it includes the idea of Transport proposed by David Brownell back in 2010 which I really like and adapted in LibSWD integration, this also proposes some reorganization of OpenOCD into logical layers and I will take into this after SWD is operational and included :-) In short words directory structure should represent logical sandwich-like organization of OpenOCD and its functional blocks/modules: *interface: dongle drivers - this will allow to flush the queue and in general transfer bits over the wire. *transport: jtag, swd, spi, ... - this will convert commands into bitstream and bistream into results. *Access Port or Board: TAP (JTAG), DAP (SWD), ... - this will allow some basic operations on target such as detect, reset and others that does not fir neirther into transport nor target. *target: arm*, cortex, mips, ... - this will allow to access target registers and memory and create bridge between higher layers (flash, rtos, ...) and the physical target. *flash - this will allow to access flash memory of the target device. *rtos - this will allow to access various operating system internals such as process list, kernel modules and internals, programs execution, etc. *smp - this will allow to control multiple processors on the multicore devices. *... It is really important to set functional blocks and its API so we know what is the information flow, where, when and why, I think this would greatly increase extendability of the project :-) Best regards :-) Tomek -- CeDeROM, SQ7MHZ, http://www.tomek.cedro.info ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Everyone hates slow websites.
