Any Interactive Debugging OpenOCD Examples or Feature Ideas?

[bryanbrattlof]

Hello everyone!

I was wondering if anyone has seen an example of or uses the OpenOCDDevice (or any of the debugging drivers) to create an interactive debugging session for a remote NetworkUSBDebugger resource? If not would that be something we're interested in? My goal is to have a way to debug low level firmware (TF-A, U-Boot, or other vendor firmware) where JTAG is usually the only method we have to understand what's going wrong.

I'll create the proof of concept soon however my idea was to extend the labgrid-client with a 'gdb' command to spin up whatever driver is needed and expose the ports openocd generates locally on the client side. Though I wasn't sure if anyone has thought about this or is already working on the same functionality.

Happy Hacking
