+@cindex SWIM
+@cindex Single Wire Interface Module
+The Single Wire Interface Module (SWIM) is a low-pin-count debug protocol used
+by the STMicroelectronics MCU family STM8 and documented in the
+@uref{https://www.st.com/resource/en/user_manual/cd00173911.pdf, User Manual UM470}.
+
+SWIM does not support boundary scan testing nor multiple cores.
+
+The SWIM transport is selected with the command @command{transport select swim}.
+
+The concept of TAPs does not fit in the protocol since SWIM does not implement
+a scan chain. Nevertheless, the current SW model of OpenOCD requires defining a
+virtual SWIM TAP through the command @command{swim newtap basename tap_type}.
+The TAP definition must precede the target definition command
+@command{target create target_name stm8 -chain-position basename.tap_type}.

A socket (TCP/IP) connection is typically started as follows:
@example
-target remote localhost:3333
+target extended-remote localhost:3333
@end example
This would cause GDB to connect to the gdbserver on the local pc using port 3333.
-It is also possible to use the GDB extended remote protocol as follows:
+The extended remote protocol is a super-set of the remote protocol and should
+be the preferred choice. More details are available in GDB documentation
+@url{https://sourceware.org/gdb/onlinedocs/gdb/Connecting.html}
+
+To speed-up typing, any GDB command can be abbreviated, including the extended
+remote command above that becomes:
@example
-target extended-remote localhost:3333
+tar ext :3333
@end example
+
+@b{Note:} If any backward compatibility issue requires using the old remote
+protocol in place of the extended remote one, the former protocol is still
+available through the command:
+@example
+target remote localhost:3333
+@end example

A pipe connection is typically started as follows:
@example
-target remote | openocd -c "gdb_port pipe; log_output openocd.log"
+target extended-remote | openocd -c "gdb_port pipe; log_output openocd.log"
@end example
This would cause GDB to run OpenOCD and communicate using pipes (stdin/stdout).
Using this method has the advantage of GDB starting/stopping OpenOCD for the debug
