Abstract

The invention relates to a method, an apparatus and a non-transitory computer-readable storage medium for debugging a solid-state disk (SSD) device. The method is performed by a processing unit of a single-board personal computer (PC) when loading and executing a function of a runtime library, to include: receiving a request to drive a General-Purpose Input/Output (GPIO) interface (I/F), which includes a parameter required for completing a Joint Test Action Group (JTAG) command; issuing a first hardware instruction to the GPIO I/F to set a register corresponding to a GPIO test data input (TDI) pin according to the parameter carried in the request for emulating to issue the JTAG command to a solid-state disk (SSD) device, wherein the single-board PC is coupled to the SSD device through the GPIO I/F; issuing a second hardware instruction to the GPIO I/F to read a value of the register corresponding to the GPIO TDI pin; and replying with a completion message in response to the request.
