This creates the TCL interface for configuring an AT91SAM9 NAND flash
controller and implements the necessary functions to correctly work with
a NAND flash device connected to the chip. This includes updates to the
driver list and the Makefile.am to support building the driver and also
houses the documentation update in openocd.texi.

In conjunction with manual register setup, this lets the ETM trigger
cause entry to debug state. It should make it easier to test and
bugfix the ETM code, by enabling non-trace usage and isolating bugs
specific to thef ETM support. (One current issue being that trace
data collection using the ETB doesn't yet behave.)
For example, many ARM9 cores with an ETM should be able to implement
four more (simple) breakpoints and two more (simple) watchpoints than
the EmbeddedICE supports. Or, they should be able to support complex
breakpoints, incorporating ETM sequencer, counters, and/or subroutine
entry/exit criteria int criteria used to trigger debug entry.

This command was misplaced; it's not generic to all traceport drivers,
only the ETB supports this kind of configuration. So move it, and
update the relevant documentation.

Tweak the "scan_chain" output by removing column separators. Also
remove the "current instruction" state ... which changes constantly.
Now its style resembles the "targets" output, and can even fit on
one line in standard terminals and in the PDF docs.

Add a "-ignore-version" to "jtag newtap" which makes the IDCODE
comparison logic optionally ignore version differences.
Update the "scan_chain" command to illustrate this by showing
the "*" character instead of the (ignored) version nibble.

When starting up, say how many hardware breakpoints and watchpoints
are available on various targets.
This makes it easier to tell GDB how many of those resources exist.
Its remote protocol currently has no way to ask OpenOCD for that
information, so it must configured by hand (or not at all).
Update the docs to mention this; remove obsolete "don't do this" info.
Presentation of GDB setup information is still a mess, but at least
it calls out the three components that need setup.

Add a brief "setup with no customization" note showing the
how easily things can work if standard OpenOCD config scripts
already exist. We've had some new users comment that this
information is needlessly hard to find, so that starting to
use OpenOCD is more difficult than it should be.
Plus describe a few other issues that come up when setting
up an OpenOCD server.

Rename the existing 'flash banks' implementation as 'flash list', and
replace the broken 'flash_banks' TCL wrapper with a new command handler.
Adds documentation for the new 'flash list' command in the user guide.
List it in the concept index, in the section about target software
changes a project might want to consider, and in the section about
debug messaging.

Semihosting enables code running on an ARM target to use the
I/O facilities on the host computer. The target application must
be linked against a library that forwards operation requests by
using the SVC instruction that is trapped at the Supervisor Call
vector by the debugger. The "hosted" library version provided
with CodeSourcery's Sourcery G++ Lite for ARM EABI is one example.
This is currently available for ARM9 processors, but any ARM
variant should be able to support this with little additional work.
Tested using binaries compiled with Sourcery G++ Lite 2009q1-161
and ARM RVCT 3.0.

This defines a "reset-assert" event and a supporting utility
routine, and documents both how targets should implement it
and how config scripts should use it. Core-specific updates
are needed to make this work.

Add $HOME/.openocd as the first default script search directory, allowing
the user to override the standard scripts.
Update the user guide with information on where OpenOCD expects to find
configuration files and scripts. Also fixed some minor formatting issues.
Add entry to NEWS as well.

Remove two commands that were documented as "debug commands"
and where "you probably don't want to use this". We never
intended to support them, and at least one problem report
boiled down to using this when it shouldn't have been used.
Update the docs on the existing register commands to talk a
bit more about register access and cache behavior. (Those
debug commands existed largely to *bypass* the cache.) And
fix some minor doc goofs that snuck in with recent changes,
renaming "armv4_5" as "arm" and "arm9tdmi" as "arm9".

Rename the "armv4_5" command prefix to straight "arm" so it makes
more sense for newer cores. Add a simple compatibility script.
Make sure all the commands give the same "not an ARM" diagnostic
message (and fail properly) when called against non-ARM targets.
