ETM trace decode using OpenCSD

Hello,

I am a graduate student from Virginia Commonwealth University working on execution and data monitoring of my application running on a STM32F4 board. I have a runtime monitor on an FPGA that would analyse the trace information.

But, to transfer the instruction traces from ETM and data traces to the FPGA, I would need a trace decoder on the FPGA. This trace decoder would be help decode the ETM traces from STM32 board to the FPGA monitor. I want to do monitoring at runtime. I came across the OpenCSD github repository. Do you think this could fit well for our application? Can the OpenCSD be implemented on an FPGA to decode ETM traces?

Thank you for any inputs on this.

regards, Smitha
