I think it would be a great idea to have a generic JTAG toolset, from which
platform-specific codesets can be derived. Sort of along the lines of MAME
except instead of emulation it actually talks to the hardware.
Of course, this runs into major problems with proprietary IP, but that's
always going to be an issue.
Yes and no. The actual communication with a device JTAG port is not an
IP issue. What you access, and what you can do with it is. However, a
generic open access mechanism is both valuable and possible. If someone
achieves that I will be grateful, especially if they do it with USB support.
