Cortex-M debug AP could be on AHB3 or AHB5.
Finding AHB3 is fast as AP usually has a low address.
On the other hand, finding AP on the AHB5 equipped device is weird
without this patch. cortex_m_find_mem_ap()
first tries to read IDR from all possible 256 ADIv5 APs and checks
for AHB3 ID and if that fails, starts over and search for AHB5.
It takes long time (74 msec on fast USB HS based STLINK V3J15M7)
and logs lot of rubbish:

Welcome to OpenOCD
OpenOCD provides on-chip programming and debugging support with a layered architecture of JTAG interface and TAP support including:
- (X)SVF playback to facilitate automated boundary scan and FPGA/CPLD programming;
- debug target support (e.g. ARM, MIPS): single-stepping, breakpoints/watchpoints, gprof profiling, etc;
- flash chip drivers (e.g. CFI, NAND, internal flash);
- embedded Tcl interpreter for easy scripting.
Several network interfaces are available for interacting with OpenOCD: telnet, Tcl, and GDB. The GDB server enables OpenOCD to function as a "remote target" for source-level debugging of embedded systems using the GNU GDB program (and the others who talk GDB protocol, e.g. IDA Pro).
This README file contains an overview of the following topics:
- quickstart instructions,
- how to find and build more OpenOCD documentation,
- list of the supported hardware,
- the installation and build process,
- packaging tips.
Quickstart for the impatient
If you have a popular board then just start OpenOCD with its config, e.g.:
openocd -f board/stm32f4discovery.cfg
If you are connecting a particular adapter with some specific target, you need to source both the jtag interface and the target configs, e.g.:
openocd -f interface/ftdi/jtagkey2.cfg -c "transport select jtag" \
-f target/ti/calypso.cfg
openocd -f interface/stlink.cfg -c "transport select swd" \
-f target/stm32l0.cfg
After OpenOCD startup, connect GDB with
(gdb) target extended-remote localhost:3333
Installing OpenOCD
The easiest way to install OpenOCD is through your operating system's package manager.
-
Debian / Ubuntu
sudo apt install openocd -
Fedora
sudo dnf install openocd -
macOS (via Homebrew)
brew install open-ocd -
Windows (via MSYS2)
pacman -S mingw-w64-x86_64-openocd
These packages are often more stable than the bleeding-edge Git mainline, where active development happens. "Packagers" create binary releases of OpenOCD after the developers publish new source code releases. Older OpenOCD versions are not suitable for diagnosing issues in the current release. Users should stay in touch with their distribution maintainers or interface vendors to ensure that appropriate updates are provided regularly.
If you use one of these binary packages, you must contact the Packager for support or for newer binary versions. The OpenOCD developers do not provide direct support for packaged binaries.
A Note to OpenOCD Packagers
You are a PACKAGER of OpenOCD if you:
- Sell dongles and include pre-built binaries;
- Supply tools or IDEs (a development solution integrating OpenOCD);
- Build packages (e.g. RPM or DEB files for a GNU/Linux distribution).
As a PACKAGER, you will experience first reports of most issues. When you fix those problems for your users, your solution may help prevent hundreds (if not thousands) of other questions from other users.
If something does not work for you, please work to inform the OpenOCD developers know how to improve the system or documentation to avoid future problems, and follow-up to help us ensure the issue will be fully resolved in our future releases.
That said, the OpenOCD developers would also like you to follow a few suggestions:
- Send patches, including config files, upstream, participate in the discussions;
- Enable all the options OpenOCD supports, even those unrelated to your particular hardware;
- Use "ftdi" interface adapter driver for the FTDI-based devices.
OpenOCD Documentation
In addition to the in-tree documentation, the latest manuals may be viewed online at the following URLs:
-
OpenOCD User's Guide: http://openocd.org/doc/html/index.html
-
OpenOCD Developer's Manual: http://openocd.org/doc/doxygen/html/index.html
These reflect the latest development versions, so the following section introduces how to build the complete documentation from the package.
For more information, refer to these documents or contact the developers by subscribing to the OpenOCD developer mailing list: openocd-devel@lists.sourceforge.net
Building the OpenOCD Documentation
By default the OpenOCD build process prepares documentation in the
"Info format" and installs it the standard way, so that info openocd
can access it.
Additionally, the OpenOCD User's Guide can be produced in the following different formats:
If PDFVIEWER is set, this creates and views the PDF User Guide.
make pdf && ${PDFVIEWER} doc/openocd.pdf
If HTMLVIEWER is set, this creates and views the HTML User Guide.
make html && ${HTMLVIEWER} doc/openocd.html/index.html
The OpenOCD Developer Manual contains information about the internal architecture and other details about the code:
Note: make sure doxygen is installed, type doxygen --version
make doxygen && ${HTMLVIEWER} doxygen/index.html

Building OpenOCD
The INSTALL file contains generic instructions for running configure
and compiling the OpenOCD source code. That file is provided by
default for all GNU autotools packages. If you are not familiar with
the GNU autotools, then you should read those instructions first.
Note: if the INSTALL file is not present, it means you are using the
source code from a development branch, not from an OpenOCD release.
In this case, follow the instructions 'Compiling OpenOCD' below and
the file will be created by the first command ./bootstrap.
The remainder of this document tries to provide some instructions for those looking for a quick-install.
OpenOCD Dependencies
GCC or Clang is currently required to build OpenOCD. The developers have begun to enforce strict code warnings (-Wall, -Werror, -Wextra, and more) and use C99-specific features: inline functions, named initializers, mixing declarations with code, and other tricks. While it may be possible to use other compilers, they must be somewhat modern and could require extending support to conditionally remove GCC-specific extensions.
You'll also need:
- make
- libtool
- pkg-config >= 0.23 or pkgconf
- libjim >= 0.79
Additionally, for building from Git:
- autoconf >= 2.69
- automake >= 1.14
- texinfo >= 5.0
Optional USB-based adapter drivers need libusb-1.0.
Optional USB-Blaster, ASIX Presto and OpenJTAG interface adapter drivers need libftdi library.
Optional CMSIS-DAP adapter driver needs HIDAPI library.
Optional linuxgpiod adapter driver needs libgpiod library.
Optional J-Link adapter driver needs libjaylink library.
Optional ARM disassembly needs capstone library.
Optional development script checkpatch needs:
- perl
- python
- python-ply
Compiling OpenOCD
To build OpenOCD, use the following sequence of commands:
./bootstrap
./configure [options]
make
sudo make install
The bootstrap command is only necessary when building from the Git repository.
The configure step generates the Makefiles required to build OpenOCD, usually
with one or more options provided to it.
The first 'make' step will build OpenOCD and place the final executable in './src/'.
The final (optional) step, make install, places all of the files in the
required location.
To see the list of all the supported options, run ./configure --help
Cross-compiling Options
Cross-compiling is supported the standard autotools way, you just need to specify the cross-compiling target triplet in the --host option, e.g. for cross-building for Windows 32-bit with MinGW on Debian:
./configure --host=i686-w64-mingw32 [options]
To make pkg-config work nicely for cross-compiling, you might need an additional wrapper script as described at https://autotools.io/pkgconfig/cross-compiling.html.
This is needed to tell pkg-config where to look for the target
libraries that OpenOCD depends on. Alternatively, you can specify
*_CFLAGS and *_LIBS environment variables directly, see ./configure --help for the details.
For a more or less complete script that does all this for you, see contrib/cross-build.sh.
Parallel Port Dongles
If you want to access the parallel port using the PPDEV interface you
have to specify both --enable-parport and --enable-parport-ppdev, since
the later option is an option to the parport driver.
The same is true for the --enable-parport-giveio option, you have to
use both the --enable-parport and the --enable-parport-giveio option
if you want to use giveio instead of ioperm parallel port access
method.
Obtaining OpenOCD From Git
You can download the current Git version with a Git client of your
choice from the main repository: git://git.code.sf.net/p/openocd/code
You may prefer to use a mirror:
- http://repo.or.cz/r/openocd.git
- git://repo.or.cz/openocd.git
Using the Git command line client, you might use the following command to set up a local copy of the current repository (make sure there is no directory called "openocd" in the current directory):
git clone git://git.code.sf.net/p/openocd/code openocd
Then you can update that at your convenience using git pull.
There is also a gitweb interface, which you can use either to browse the repository or to download arbitrary snapshots using HTTP: http://repo.or.cz/w/openocd.git.
Snapshots are compressed tarballs of the source tree, about 1.3 MBytes each at this writing.
Permissions delegation
Running OpenOCD with root/administrative permissions is strongly discouraged for security reasons.
For USB devices on GNU/Linux you should use the contrib/60-openocd.rules file. It probably belongs somewhere in /etc/udev/rules.d, but consult your operating system documentation to be sure. Do not forget to add yourself to the "plugdev" group.
For parallel port adapters on GNU/Linux and FreeBSD please change your "ppdev" (parport* or ppi*) device node permissions accordingly.
For parport adapters on Windows you need to run install_giveio.bat (it's also possible to use "ioperm" with Cygwin instead) to give ordinary users permissions for accessing the "LPT" registers directly.
