 This is happening mostly on cheap clones of proxmark3 Easy. This is happening mostly on cheap clones of proxmark3 Easy.
  
 +To debug Proxmark on newer OpenOCD >= 0.10.0, you may set fast memory access and fast DCC downloads:
  
 +<code> 
 +openocd -c "adapter_khz 4000" -f interface/jlink.cfg -c "gdb_memory_map disable" -f target/at91sam7x256.cfg -c "init; arm7_9 fast_memory_access enable; arm7_9 dcc_downloads enable"

 +===== SystemView for J-link - visualization of interrupts or other functions =====
 +
 +There is an instrumentation possible with changes to code to show how your functions and interrupts behave - [[https://wiki.segger.com/Use_SystemView_without_RTOS | sample code]]
 +
 +Here is an example showing "tail chaining" of interrupts where interrupts are behind one another, and also "late arriving", where Systick interrupts USB interrupt (marked as IST #93 starting at position 2195):
 +
 +{{:project:arm_debugging:systemview_20200318_113539.png?800|}}
 +
 +If you add extra functions, it may measure your functions as well:

 +
 +As a side note, ST-link on STM32 discovery boards can be reflashed to JLink (works only on discovery boards, not on separate ST-links).
 +
 +===== ARM ETM trace - recording executed instructions =====
 +
 +ARM processors (Cortex M1+ and others) have built-in a nifty feature that you can record all instructions executed. This requires quite costly hardware (expect 2000 EUR price - JTrace, Lauterbach and uLink), but it can be handy in debugging DMA and interrupts.
 +
 +An example ETM trace:
 +
 +{{:project:arm_debugging:ozone_error_shutdown_highlighted.png?800|}}
 +
 +===== ARM ITM trace - recording samples of executed instructions, interrupts =====
 +
 +You can get code profile like this with ITM (screenshow from ''orbtop''):
 +
 +{{:project:arm_debugging:orbtop_trezor_lots_of_segwit_inputs.png|}}
  
 +To get this working, [[https://github.com/hiviah/ITM-howto-JLink-STLink|follow this howto]]. It shows steps to be used with JLink/JTrace or STLink to get it moving.

 +==== BMP PC-hosted with unmodified STLink v2 target (requires firmware >= V2J32xx) ====
 +
 +Upgrade STLink fw first with the STLinkUpgrade tool mentioned before.

 +With this firmware you can use external unmodified STLink with BMP (''PROBE_HOST=pc-stlinkv2''):
