That's confusing. The change would of course not have been needed
if existing code had been working.

I hope you're interested in finding what the problem that you guys
see is really about.

Let's find and fix the problem instead. Reverting the change would
just mean that openocd is broken in a different way. Neither
brokenness is a useful state. The only meaningful action is
to understand and fix the problem that you've encountered.

It would have been great if you had already looked into the problem,
since you have (made) hardware where it can be reproduced easily.
Could you do that now instead?


> while a proper version of the change will be worked on.

Spencer mentioned that the problem might occur only with FT2232D,
and not with FT2232H. This would explain why I did not see any
problem in my testing; I only used FT2232H interfaces.

I guess that you've (re-)read the appnote, so you know that the
logical change (reset before selecting MPSSE) is as proper as FTDI
doesn't guarantee, for all MPSSEs. As much as their documentation
sucks, at least that example code is fairly clear. On the other
hand, they do state that it is not guaranteed to be correct.

Hopefully someone can contribute experience about why the reset is
sometimes required for successful operation, and why it sometimes
*hinders* successful operation.

Meanwhile, I think the only other data point we may have access to
is libftdi. I'll have a look there.
