You can drop the documentation based off j7200... Just state this
documentation is for J721S2.

Thanks for including am68_sk documentation

Just use a single space for spacing?

just use a single space?

Use  a single space? to separate. I think we should probably clean up
the other docs as follow on.

This will work for the evm, but the am68-SK doesn't seem to have XDS110
on board.

You will need the following sections to help debug on SK-AM68:
k3_rst_include_start_openocd_connect_cti20
and:
k3_rst_include_start_openocd_cfg_external_intro

and:
  openocd_connect.cfg:

.. code-block:: tcl

  # TUMPA example:
  # http://www.tiaowiki.com/w/TIAO_USB_Multi_Protocol_Adapter_User's_Manual
  source [find interface/ftdi/tumpa.cfg]

  transport select jtag

  # default JTAG configuration has only SRST and no TRST
  reset_config srst_only srst_push_pull

  # delay after SRST goes inactive
  adapter srst delay 20

  if { ![info exists SOC] } {
    # Set the SoC of interest
    set SOC j721s2
  }

  source [find target/ti_k3.cfg]

  ftdi tdo_sample_edge falling

  # Speeds for FT2232H are in multiples of 2, and 32MHz is tops
  # max speed we seem to achieve is ~20MHz.. so we pick 16MHz
  adapter speed 16000
