ARM-USB-OCD-H Driver Issue

Redwing · July 13, 2023, 05:43:52 PM

I have recently purchased an Olimex ARM-USB-OCD-U debugger but am experiencing a driver issue. I used Zadig to install WinUSB (v6.1.7600.16385) drivers for ARM-USB-OCD-H (both interfaces 0 and 1).

After restarting my computer (Windows 10 Enterprise - x64), and connecting the ARM-USB-OCD-H (USB-C <-> USB-C), the yellow light turns solid, and it appears as a USB device:

Using the precompiled OpenOCD 0.9.0 found here: 0.9.0Freddiechoppin.info, I navigated to the bin-x64 folder and added the olimex-arm-usb-ocd-h ftdi interface config file, after adding the following two lines to the end, for auto probing:
reset_config trst_and_srst
jtag_rclk 8

The config file (olimex-arm-usb-ocd-h-autprobe.cfg) looks like this:

ftdi_vid_pid 0x15ba 0x002b
ftdi_layout_init 0x0908 0x0b1b
ftdi_layout_signal nSRST -oe 0x0200
ftdi_layout_signal nTRST -data 0x0100
ftdi_layout_signal LED -data 0x0800
reset_config trst_and_srst
jtag_rclk 8

I am connected to a target at this point (20-pin ICE JTAG).
From a GIT bash MINGW terminal in the bin-x64 folder, I run:
$ ./openocd -f olimex-arm-usb-ocd-h-autprobe.cfg

Which yields:

Both times, the light on the debugger would go from yellow to red as soon as I ran OpenOCD.
While I don't have a fully formed target configuration file yet, if I'm understanding correctly, there is a problem (libusb_open() failed with LIBUSB_ERROR_NOT_SUPPORTED) connecting to my Olimex device.

I do not think this is a cable issue, as I have tried this with a USB-C to USB-C as well as a USB-A to USB-C, both with the same result.

Is this a driver issue?

Thank you,

The maintainers of libusb broke it (by making the kind of API change you are supposed never to make for such a thing (so/dll)) for a while and have I believe unbroken it.

You probably need a different libusb and/or openocd if it came with it.

You may do better posting on / reading the oocd mailing list.

Thank you for that information.

Since this was a tested FreddieChoppin opencd release, I'm guessing it isn't the openOCD version. I noticed that my driver date appears as being from 2012, would that have been the version that Zadig installed? If so, wouldn't that have been before libusb broke? And how would that be compatible with windows 10?

I was able to manually update my Olimex drivers to current libusbK releases, which seems to have quieted the LIBUSB error. Now I am getting another error:

The Olimex ARM-USB-OCD-H debugger light remains solid green/yellow when the openOCD command is run. The same error is shown when I unplug the debugger from the target chip and run again. The config file is an adaptation of a legacy config file / olimex debugger / openocd version for the same chip: see this thread. Any idea what's going on here?

LubOlimex · July 14, 2023, 09:44:32 AM

This seems like it work somehow, yes it throws errors first but it ends up with:

Info : ks869x.cpu: hardware has 2 breakpoint/watchpoint units

Usually unrecoverable errors drop you out of everything.

You don't need to add custom interface for Olimex debuggers usually. They are already present.

Instead of olimex-arm-usb-ocd-h.cfg try with the config in the FTDI sub-folder like interface/ftdi/olimex-arm-usb-ocd-h.cfg

Try with different versions of OpenOCD but best get the latest ones like 0.11.0 or 0.12.0.

Edit: Notice that I also use Windows 10 x64 and ARM-USB-OCD-H works fine here but sometimes you need to force the drivers. Drivers required depend on the OpenOCD version and with what drivers in mind it was compiled for. The description for driver installation and usage in the manual is good starting point also: https://www.olimex.com/Products/ARM/JTAG/_resources/ARM-USB-OCD_and_OCD_H_manual.pdf

Redwing · July 14, 2023, 05:31:50 PM

Thank you for that information. I've updated my drivers to the most recent libusb releases and am now using the xpack openocd 0.12 release, as well as the ftdi interface. The same error is persisting, however. Could it be my target configuration file?

LubOlimex · July 17, 2023, 08:23:34 AM

Could be. Unfortunately, only the OpenOCD community can help you if this is the case. Still my advice is to test with another, simpler target, just to confirm if the issue is related to the chip in question or its config. I usually test my setup with some popular STM32 chip like STM32F107, STM32F207, or STM32F407, ST chips have good support in OpenOCD so if you have a board like that laying around I will first test with it. But even if you don't any lower density ARM chip is a good target to test.
