Windows subsystem for Linux (WSL) is a part of Windows 10, that allows the user to run Linux applications on Windows.

J-Link specifics

As of now WSL does not fully support USB devices.

In order to connect to a J-Link from WSL you either have to use the Ethernet / WiFi interface (if present, see Model overview) or make use of the J-Link Remote Server that runs on an another machine, capable of USB.

Example setup with USB

J-Link Commander

In this example we will connect to our J-Link (connected via USB to the host) from WSL using the J-Link Remote Server on the host side and the J-Link Commander on the WSL side.

Requirements

Steps

  1. Start the J-Link Remote Server in LAN mode on the Windows 10 host system.
  2. Switch to the command-line prompt of your WSL Linux system
  3. Set the target device and interface in the following command and execute it:
JLinkExe -device <your-device> -ip localhost -if <target-interface> -speed 4000 -autoconnect 1
