configure-trace.openocd

# This file is an example of how to configure ITM/ETM tracing
# using openocd if you do not want to modify the application.
#
# Use like this:
# openocd -f configure-trace.openocd

# Modify there to match your debugger hw & cpu
source [find interface/stlink-v2.cfg]
source [find target/stm32f4x_stlink.cfg]

I'm a TUHH student at Hamburg working on STM32F4 ETM module.

The config file seemed very helpful for me.
I'm a newbie to this, and I'm not sure if I understand this completely correct.
But I needed more information on how can I get the packets emitted by ETM via JTAG/ST-link USB probe to my PC.

Can you share some resources if you have, to help me with this??

Thanks
