In a debug session using JTAG for its transport protocol,
OpenOCD supports running such test files.
-@deffn Command {svf} filename [@option{quiet}]
+@deffn Command {svf} @file{filename} [@option{-tap @var{tapname}}] [@option{[-]quiet}] @
+ [@option{[-]nil}] [@option{[-]progress}] [@option{[-]ignore_error}]
This issues a JTAG reset (Test-Logic-Reset) and then
runs the SVF script from @file{filename}.
-Unless the @option{quiet} option is specified,
-each command is logged before it is executed.
+
+Arguments can be specified in any order; the optional dash doesn't
+affect their semantics.
+
+Command options:
+@itemize @minus
+@item @option{-tap @var{tapname}} ignore IR and DR headers and footers
+specified by the SVF file with HIR, TIR, HDR and TDR commands;
+instead, calculate them automatically according to the current JTAG
+chain configuration, targetting @var{tapname};
+@item @option{[-]quiet} do not log every command before execution;
+@item @option{[-]nil} ``dry run'', i.e., do not perform any operations
+on the real interface;
+@item @option{[-]progress} enable progress indication;
+@item @option{[-]ignore_error} continue execution despite TDO check
+errors.
