Nit: it's now called the "Supervisor Call" vector; not "SWI vector". :) Unless it's the "Secure Monitor Call" vector ... and I doubt we'll have good support for that stuff any time soon! > library version provided with CodeSourcery's Sourcery G++ Lite for ARM EABI > is one example.

Yeah, I seem to be poking at those parts of ARM11 and Cortex-A8... If possible, I'd like to see 0.4.0 ship with this expected to work on all ARMs except maybe Cortex-M chips. (They aren't yet able to plug into the "arm <subcommand> ..." infrastructure.) > Tested using binaries compiled with Sourcery G++ Lite 2009q1-161 and > ARM RVCT 3.0. > > Signed-off-by: Nicolas Pitre <n...@marvell.com> _______________________________________________ Openocd-development mailing list Openocd-development@lists.berlios.de https://lists.berlios.de/mailman/listinfo/openocd-development
