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.

Add the 'nand verify' command to perform a dump and fake-write
simultaneously, checking the read bits against those generated by the
write process. Appropriate user documentation for this command has
been added to the user guide as well.
The algorithm presently makes a relatively naive comparison. Some chips
that use ECC may not verify correctly using this implementation, but the
new documentation provides details about this limitation.
This documentation update provides an introduction to the command
handling facilities provided by command.[ch]. A primer walks the user
through the elements of a pointedly pedantic module: src/hello.c.
A summary of the API is provided in the OpenOCD Architecture section.
ARM11 and newer cores include updated ETM modules. Recognize
their version codes and some key config differences. Sanity
checked on an OMAP2, with an ETM11RV r0p1 (ETMv3.1).
This still handles only scan chain 6, with at most 128 registers.
Newer cores (mostly, Cortex) will need to use the DAP instead.
Note that the newer ETM modules don't quite fit the quirky config
model of the older ones ... having more port widths is easy, but
the modes aren't the same. That still needs to change.
Fix a curious bug ... how did the register cache NOT get saved??

Add the khz and speed_div functions to the parport interface driver.
Add the parport_toggling_time function that tells the parport driver
how long (in nanoseconds) it takes for the hardware to toggle TCK.
