3.1.3 OpenOCD

Zephyr includes a version of OpenOCD as of Zephyr 0.17.4 that does not support TI LaunchPads. As such, it is critical to install a newer version that supports TI MSP MCUs.

If the guide has been followed up to this point, it is important to first deactivate the virtual environment that was used up to this point before creating a new folder for OpenOCD in the home directory.

Once this is completed, OpenOCD can be built within the OpenOCD folder. This build must be referenced during flashing for all builds on TI hardware.

OpenOCD is now ready to go for the following steps.
