-FTDI FT2232 (USB) based devices over one of the userspace libraries.

-recommended as its replacement.

-before initializing the JTAG scan chain:
-
-@deffn {Config Command} {ft2232_device_desc} description
-Provides the USB device description (the @emph{iProduct string})
-of the FTDI FT2232 device. If not
-specified, the FTDI default value is used. This setting is only valid
-if compiled with FTD2XX support.
-@end deffn
-
-@deffn {Config Command} {ft2232_serial} serial-number
-Specifies the @var{serial-number} of the FTDI FT2232 device to use,
-in case the vendor provides unique IDs and more than one FT2232 device
-is connected to the host.
-If not specified, serial numbers are not considered.
-(Note that USB serial numbers can be arbitrary Unicode strings,
-and are not restricted to containing only decimal digits.)

-On some systems using FT2232 based JTAG interfaces the FT_Read function call in

-USB communication delays and has proved hard to reproduce and debug. Setting the
-FT2232 latency timer to a larger value increases delays for short USB packets but it
-also reduces the risk of timeouts before receiving the expected number of bytes.

@deffn {Interface Driver} {ftdi}
This driver is for adapters using the MPSSE (Multi-Protocol Synchronous Serial
Engine) mode built into many FTDI chips, such as the FT2232, FT4232 and FT232H.
-It is a complete rewrite to address a large number of problems with the ft2232
-interface driver.
The driver is using libusb-1.0 in asynchronous mode to talk to the FTDI device,
-bypassing intermediate libraries like libftdi of D2XX. Performance-wise it is
-consistently faster than the ft2232 driver, sometimes several times faster.

A major improvement of this driver is that support for new FTDI based adapters

-@item @b{USB Power} When using the Amontec JTAGkey, sometimes OpenOCD crashes with the
-following error messages: "Error: ft2232.c:201 ft2232_read(): FT_Read returned:
-4" and "Error: ft2232.c:365 ft2232_send_and_recv(): couldn't read from FT2232".
-What does that mean and what might be the reason for this?
-
-First of all, the reason might be the USB power supply. Try using a self-powered
-hub instead of a direct connection to your computer. Secondly, the error code 4
-corresponds to an FT_IO_ERROR, which means that the driver for the FTDI USB
-chip ran into some sort of error - this points us to a USB problem.
