short story: if the JTAG clock is too high, then the
behavior will be flaky and kludging the code may
seem to make things beter, but really it's just a red
herring.

TCL procedures mrw and mmw, originally in DaVinci target code,
are duplicated in other TCL scripts.
Moved in a common helper file, and added help/usage description.

capture of progress output would get polling
results. This will break in the example below
where polling output would override the tcl
return value.
capture {sleep 10000; set abc def}

by using ctrl-z instead of line end, multi-line tcl scripts
can be handled.
Testing: send ctrl-z a couple of times to make telnet enter the
mode where it sends ctrl-z unencoded.
Programs that talk to the tcl_server can send ctrl-z to
indicate end of tcl-let to be executed without having
to worry about telnet protocols.

Hi everyone (again),
Watchpoints on xscale are quirky, so I thought a little explanation in the
user's manual was warranted.
Comments gratefully received.
Last one, Øyvind :-)

Hi everyone,
A while back I sent in a patch that adds support for watchpoint lengths greater
than four on xscale. It's been working well, until the other day, when it
caused an unexpected debug exception. Looking into this I realized there is a
case where it breaks: when the length arg is greater than the base address.
This is a consequence of the way the hardware works. Don't see a work-around,
so I added code to xscale_add_watchpoint() to check for and disallow this
combination.
Some more detail... xscale watchpoint hardware does not support a length
directly. Instead, a mask value can be specified (not to be confused with the
optional mask arg to the wp command, which xscale does not support). Any bits
set in the mask are ignored when the watchpoint hardware compares the access
address to the watchpoint address. So as long as the length is a power of two,
setting the mask to length-1 effectively specifies the length. Or so I thought,
until I realized that if the length exceeds the base address, *all* bits of the
base address are ignored by the comaparator, and the watchpoint range
effectively becomes 0 .. length.
Questions, comments, criticisms gratefully received.
Thanks,
Mike

Hi everyone,
Added more LOG_ERROR messsages to watchpoint and breakpoint code, given that the
infrastructure no longer interprets returned error codes. Also changed
existing LOG_INFO and LOG_WARNING to LOG_ERROR for cases where an error is
returned.
Note that the check of the target state is superflous, since the infrastruture
code currently checks this before calling target code. Is this being
reconsidered as well? Also, should we stop returning anything other than
ERROR_OK and ERROR_FAIL?
Comments gratefully received.
Thanks,
Mike

do not try to interpret "retval" into a string, just
amend a bit about the context of the already reported
error.
