hi Luis
for sure, I would like to pursue it upstream, and I will need your support here, as well as for completing the remote protocol extensions. Thanks for your proposal for support.
A good introduction to this implementation can be found here https://www.mail-archive.com/linaro-toolchain@lists.linaro.org/msg06871.html .
I am available if you need further information.
Kind Regards
Zied Guermazi

That's great news! Are you planning on pursuing such changes upstream?

I'd like to go over your work on GDB to understand how it works and how
it integrates with CoreSight.

Let's keep in touch and we can discuss what is needed if you want to
have this work integrated into the GDB repository, which should make the
work available to a broader audience.

Best regards,
Luis
