TS-7800 JTAG (Marvell 88F5182 Feroceon Storage SoC)

As shown in the TS-7800 schematic, the JTAG header is part of a 16-pin header that also includes COM1. The pin numbering is as follows:

(REAL TIME CLOCK)
2 4 6 8 10 12 14 16 18 20
1 3 5 7 9  11 13 15 17 19
(COM1 HEADER)

For the TMS and DOUT pins, there are two variants labelled either "core" or "cpu". For debugging with GDB use the ones labelled "cpu". Pins 11 through 16 are for connecting to COM1 and are not needed for JTAG. The full pin assignment is as follows:

1 TDI
2 nTRST
3 TMS
4 VREF
5 TCK
6 do not use
7 TDO
8 GND
9 do not use
10 do not use

The following openocd configuration should work for OpenOCD (substitute the proper interface path):

source [find interface/olimex-arm-usb-tiny-h.cfg]
jtag_khz 10000
jtag newtap feroceon cpu -expected-id 0x07926041 -irlen 4
target create feroceon.cpu feroceon -endian little -chain-position feroceon.cpu
reset_config trst_only
adapter_nsrst_delay 200
jtag_ntrst_delay 200

If configured properly OpenOCD will output something similar to the following:

CPU Reset

The CPU_RESET# pin on the JTAG header does not properly reset the board. The manufacturer appears to have brought the wrong pin out to the JTAG header. Pulling this pin down appears to stall the board until a proper reset occurs. Thus you will not be able to reset the board using JTAG, and furthermore should probably avoid connecting this pin to your JTAG adapter at all due to its harmful effects.

One method that will cause a proper reset is to ground pin 12 of the AVR microcontroller, but it is not easy to access or connect to the JTAG interface.
