From: Jason Kacines <j-kacines at ti.com>
Bootloader debug usually tends to be a bit dicey prior to DDR and
serial port getting active in the system. JTAG typically remains the
only practical debug option during the initial bringup.
OpenOCD is one of the most popular environment for providing debug
capability via a gdb compatible interface for developers to work with.
Debugging U-boot and bootloaders on K3 platform does have a bit of
tribal knowledge that is better documented in our common platform
documentation.

+Common Debugging environment - OpenOCD
+--------------------------------------
+
+This section will show you how to connect a board to `OpenOCD
+<https://openocd.org/>`_ and load the SPL symbols for debugging with
+a K3 generation device. To follow this guide, you must build custom
+u-boot binaries, start your board from a boot media such as an SD
+card, and use an OpenOCD environment. This section uses generic
+examples, though you can apply these instructions to any supported K3
+generation device.
+
+Overall structure of this setup is in the following figure.
+
+.. image:: img/openocd-overview.svg
+
+.. note::
+
+ If you find these instructions useful, please consider `donating
+ <https://openocd.org/pages/donations.html>`_ to OpenOCD.
+
+Step 1: Download and install OpenOCD
+^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
+
+To get started, it is more convenient if the distribution you
+use supports OpenOCD by default. Follow the instructions in the
+`getting OpenOCD <https://openocd.org/pages/getting-openocd.html>`_
+documentation to pick the installation steps appropriate to your
+environment. Some references to OpenOCD documentation:
+
+* `OpenOCD User Guide <https://openocd.org/doc/html/index.html>`_
+* `OpenOCD Developer's Guide <https://openocd.org/doc/doxygen/html/index.html>`_
+
+Refer to the release notes corresponding to the `OpenOCD version
+<https://github.com/openocd-org/openocd/releases>`_ to ensure that:
+
+* Processor support: In general, processor support shouldn't present
+ any difficulties since OpenOCD provides solid support for both armv8
+ and armv7.
+* SoC support: When working with System-on-a-Chip (SoC), the support
+ usually comes as a tcl config file. It is vital to ensure the correct
+ version of OpenOCD or to use the tcl files from the latest release or
+ the one mentioned.
+* Board or the JTAG adapter support: In most cases, board support is
+ a relatively easy problem if the board has a JTAG pin header. All
+ you need to do is ensure that the adapter you select is compatible
+ with OpenOCD. Some boards do come with an onboard JTAG adapter that
+ requires a USB cable to be plugged into the board, in which case, it
+ is vital to ensure that the JTAG adapter is supported. Fortunately,
+ almost all TI K3 SK/EVMs come with TI's XDS110, which has support
+ out of the box with OpenOCD. The board-specific documentation will
+ cover the details and any adapter recommendations.
+
+.. code-block:: bash
+
+ openocd -v
+
+.. note::
+
+ OpenOCD version 0.12.0 is usually required to connect to most K3
+ devices. If the support is on a newer version than what is in your
+ distribution, you may need to build it from the source.
+
+Building OpenOCD from source
+""""""""""""""""""""""""""""
+
+Dependency package installation instructions are for Debian
+systems, but equivalent instructions should exist on systems with
+other package managers. Please refer to `OpenOCD Documentation
+<https://openocd.org/>`_ for more recent installation steps.
+
+.. code-block:: bash
+
+ $ sudo apt-get install libtool pkg-config texinfo libusb-dev \
+ libusb-1.0.0-dev libftdi-dev libhidapi-dev autoconf automake
+ $ git clone https://github.com/openocd-org/openocd.git openocd
+ $ cd openocd
+ $ git submodule init
+ $ git submodule update
+ $ ./bootstrap
+ $ ./configure --prefix=/usr/local/
+ $ make -j`nproc`
+ $ sudo make install
+
+.. note::
+
+ The example above uses the GitHub mirror site. See
+ `git repo information <https://openocd.org/doc/html/Developers.html#OpenOCD-Git-Repository>`_
+ information to pick the official git repo.
+ If a specific version is desired, select the version using `git checkout tag`.
+
+Installing OpenOCD udev rules
+"""""""""""""""""""""""""""""
+
+The step is unnecessary if the distribution supports the OpenOCD, but
+if building from a source, ensure that the udev rules are installed
+correctly to ensure a sane system.
+
+.. code-block:: bash
+
+ # Go to the OpenOCD source directory
+ $ cd openocd
+ # Copy the udev rules to the correct system location
+ $ sudo cp ./contrib/60-openocd.rules \
+ ./src/JTAG/drivers/libjaylink/contrib/99-libjaylink.rules \
+ /etc/udev/rules.d/
+ # Get Udev to load the new rules up
+ $ sudo udevadm control --reload-rules
+ # Use the new rules on existing connected devices
+ $ sudo udevadm trigger
+
+Step 2: Setup gdb
+^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
+
+Most systems come with gdb-multiarch package.
+
+.. code-block:: bash
+
+ # Install gdb-multiarch package
+ $ sudo apt-get install gdb-multiarch
+
+Though using gdb natively is normal, developers with interest in using IDE
+will find few of these interesting:
+
+* `gdb-dashboard <https://github.com/cyrus-and/gdb-dashboard>`_
+* `gef <https://github.com/hugsy/gef>`_
+* `peda <https://github.com/longld/peda>`_
+* `pwndbg <https://github.com/pwndbg/pwndbg>`_
+* `voltron <https://github.com/snare/voltron>`_
+* `ddd <https://www.gnu.org/software/ddd/>`_
+* `vscode <https://www.justinmklam.com/posts/2017/10/vscode-debugger-setup/>`_
+* `vim conque-gdb <https://github.com/vim-scripts/Conque-GDB>`_
+* `emacs realgud <https://github.com/realgud/realgud/wiki/gdb-notes>`_
+* `Lauterbach IDE <https://www2.lauterbach.com/pdf/backend_gdb.pdf>`_
+
+.. warning::
+ lldb support for OpenOCD is still a work in progress as of this writing.
+ Using gdb is probably the safest option at this point in time.
+
+Step 3: Setup of board to PC
+^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
+There are few patterns of boards in the ecosystem
+
+.. k3_rst_include_start_openocd_connect_XDS110
+
+**Integrated JTAG adapter/dongle**: The board has a micro-USB connector labelled
+XDS110 USB or JTAG. Connect a USB cable to the board to the mentioned port.
+
+.. note::
+
+ There are multiple USB ports on a typical board, So, ensure you have read
+ the user guide for the board and confirm the silk screen label to ensure
+ connecting to the correct port.
+
+.. k3_rst_include_end_openocd_connect_XDS110
+
+.. k3_rst_include_start_openocd_connect_cti20
+
+**cTI20 connector**: The TI's `cTI20
+<https://software-dl.ti.com/ccs/esd/documents/xdsdebugprobes/emu_JTAG_connectors.html#cti-20-pin-header-information>`_ connector
+is probably the most prevelant on TI platforms. Though many
+TI boards do have onboard XDS110, cTI20 connector is usually
+provided as an alternate scheme to connect alternatives such
+as `Lauterbach <https://www.lauterbach.com/>`_ or `XDS560
+<https://www.ti.com/tool/TMDSEMU560V2STM-U>`_.
+
+To debug on these boards, the following combinations is suggested:
+
+* `TUMPA <https://www.diygadget.com/JTAG-cables-and-microcontroller-programmers/tiao-usb-multi-protocol-adapter-JTAG-spi-i2c-serial>`_
+ or `equivalent dongles supported by OpenOCD. <https://openocd.org/doc/html/Debug-Adapter-Hardware.html#Debug-Adapter-Hardware>`_
+* Cable such as `Tag-connect ribbon cable <https://www.tag-connect.com/product/20-pin-cortex-ribbon-cable-4-length-with-50-mil-connectors>`_
+* Adapter to convert cTI20 to ARM20 such as those from
+ `Segger <https://www.segger.com/products/debug-probes/j-link/accessories/adapters/ti-cti-20-adapter/>`_
+ or `Lauterbach LA-3780 <https://www.lauterbach.com/ad3780.html>`_
+ Or optionally, if you have manufacturing capability then you could try
+ `BeagleBone JTAG Adapter <https://github.com/mmorawiec/BeagleBone-Black-JTAG-Adapters>`_
+
+.. warning::
+ XDS560 and Lauterbach are proprietary solutions and is not supported by
+ OpenOCD.
+ When purchasing off the shelf adapter/dongle, you do want to be careful
+ about the signalling though. Please
+ `read for additional info <https://software-dl.ti.com/ccs/esd/xdsdebugprobes/emu_JTAG_connectors.html>`_.
+
+.. k3_rst_include_end_openocd_connect_cti20
+
+.. k3_rst_include_start_openocd_connect_tag_connect
+
+**Tag-Connect**: `Tag-Connect <https://www.tag-connect.com/>`_
+pads on the boards which require special cable. Please check the documentation
+to `identify <https://www.tag-connect.com/info/legs-or-no-legs>`_ if "legged"
+or "no-leg" version of the cable is appropriate for the board.
+
+To debug on these boards, you will need:
+
+* `TUMPA <https://www.diygadget.com/JTAG-cables-and-microcontroller-programmers/tiao-usb-multi-protocol-adapter-JTAG-spi-i2c-serial>`_
+ or `equivalent dongles supported by OpenOCD <https://openocd.org/doc/html/Debug-Adapter-Hardware.html#Debug-Adapter-Hardware>`_.
+* Tag-Connect cable appropriate to the board such as
+ `TC2050-IDC-NL <https://www.tag-connect.com/product/TC2050-IDC-NL-10-pin-no-legs-cable-with-ribbon-connector>`_
+* In case of no-leg, version, a
+ `retaining clip <https://www.tag-connect.com/product/tc2050-clip-3pack-retaining-clip>`_
+* Tag-Connect to ARM20
+ `adapter <https://www.tag-connect.com/product/tc2050-arm2010-arm-20-pin-to-tc2050-adapter>`_
+
+.. note::
+ You can optionally use a 3d printed solution such as
+ `Protective cap <https://www.thingiverse.com/thing:3025584>`_ or
+ `clip <https://www.thingiverse.com/thing:3035278>`_ to replace
+ the retaining clip.
+
+.. warning::
+ With the Tag-Connect to ARM20 adapter, Please solder the "Trst" signal for
+ connection to work.

+
+Debugging with OpenOCD
+^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
+
+Debugging U-boot is different from debugging regular user space
+applications. The bootloader initialization process involves many boot
+media and hardware configuration operations. For K3 devices, there
+are also interactions with security firmware. While reloading the
+"elf" file works through gdb, developers must be mindful of cascading
+initialization's potential consequences.
+
+Consider the following code change:
+
+.. code-block:: diff
+
+ --- a/file.c 2023-07-29 10:55:29.647928811 -0500

+ @@ -1,3 +1,3 @@
+ val = readl(reg);
+ -val |= 0x2;
+ +val |= 0x1;
+ writel(val, reg);
+
+Re-running the elf file with the above change will result in the
+register setting 0x3 instead of the intended 0x1. There are other
+hardware blocks which may not behave very well with re-initialization
+sequence without proper shutdown.
+
+To help narrow the debug down, it is usually more simpler to use the
+standard boot media to get to the bootloader and debug only in the area
+of interest.
+
+In general, to debug u-boot spl/u-boot with OpenOCD there are three steps:
+
+* Modify the code to put a loop to allow debugger to attach near the point
+ of interest. Boot up normally to stop at the loop.
+* Connect with OpenOCD and step out of the loop
+* Step through code to find the root of issue
+
+Typical debug involves a few iterations of the above sequence. Though
+most bootloader developers like to use printf to debug, debug with
+JTAG tends to be most efficient since it is possible to investigate
+code flow and inspect hardware registers without repeated iterations.
+
+Code modification
+"""""""""""""""""
+
+* **start.S**: Adding an infinite while loop at the very entry of
+ U-Boot. For this, look for the corresponding start.S entry file.
+ This is usually only required when debugging some core SoC or
+ processor related function. For example: arch/arm/cpu/armv8/start.S or
+ arch/arm/cpu/armv7/start.S
+
+.. code-block:: diff

+* **board_init_f**: Adding an infinite while loop at the board entry

+ any changes are made for board-specific applications. Below is a step
+ by step process for debugging the boot SPL or Armv8 SPL:
+
+ To debug the boot process in either domain, we will first
+ add a modification in the code we would like to debug.
+ In this example, we will debug ``board_init_f`` inside
+ ``arch/arm/mach-k3/{soc}_init.c``. Since some sections of U-Boot
+ will be executed multiple times during the bootup process of K3
+ devices, we will need to include either ``CONFIG_CPU_ARM64`` or
+ ``CONFIG_CPU_V7R`` to catch the CPU at the desired place during the
+ bootup process (Main or Wakeup domains). For example, modify the
+ file as follows (depending on need):
+
+.. code-block:: c
+
+ void board_init_f(ulong dummy)
+ {
+ .
+ .
+ /* Code to run on the R5F (Wakeup/Boot Domain) */

+
+Startup openocd to debug the platform as follows:

+ cfg file will be available.

+ target extended-remote localhost:3334 <- A53 (Main Domain)
+
+The core can now be debugged directly within gdb using gdb commands or
+if using IDE, as appropriate to the IDE.
+
+Stepping through the code
+"""""""""""""""""""""""""
+
+Use the gdb command ``lay next`` after loading the symbols to see the
+code and breakpoints. To exit the debug loop added above, add any
+breakpoints needed and run the following gdb commands.
+
+.. code-block:: bash
+
+ set x = 0
+ continue
+
+The platform has now been successfully setup to debug with OpenOCD
+using gdb commands or a gdb-based IDE. See `OpenOCD documentation for
+gdb <https://openocd.org/doc/html/GDB-and-OpenOCD.html>`_ for further
+information.
+
+.. warning::
+
+ On the K3 family of devices, a watchdog timer within the DMSC is
+ enabled by default by the ROM bootcode with a timeout of 3 minutes.
+ The watchdog timer is serviced by System Firmware (SYSFW) or TI
+ Foundational Security (TIFS) during normal operation. If debugging
+ the SPL before the SYSFW is loaded, the watchdog timer will not get
+ serviced automatically and the debug session will reset after 3
+ minutes. It is recommended to start debugging SPL code only after
+ the startup of SYSFW to avoid running into the watchdog timer reset.
+
+Misc notes with openOCD
+^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
+
+At this time, OpenOCD does not support tracing for K3 platforms.
+Tracing function could be beneficial if the bug in code occurs deep
+within nested function and can optionally save developers major
+trouble of stepping through a large quantity of code.
