Hi there,
As discussed with Loïc, please find attached my slides to the ELCE presentation related to our implementation of linux-awareness for JTAG debugging. I still need a formal clearance of my organization on my contribution patch, but I (and my managers) will be happy to see some or all of this work benefit to-and-from the community. If you are interested, I will try to upload a self-contained qemu-based demo to a public ftp.
Cheers, Marc Titinger.

J'ai été content de vous rencontrer toi et Nicolas à la suite de ma présentation pour discuter de l'opportunité de la contribution de notre debugger linux. J'ai une question: dans la mesure ou STMicro ne fait pas partie des membres de linaro, aurais-je un accès restreint aux outils et discussions si je souhaite contribuer? Quels serons les blueprints correspondant à ce projet ?
Most things Linaro does are public; concerning the toolchain, benchmarks are kept private due to licensing constraints. Even if STMicro is not a member, you're welcome to present your ideas and code to us (we don't mind if STMicro joins as a member though ;-).
We covered topics similar to your ELC-Europe talk this week: https://blueprints.launchpad.net/linaro-toolchain-misc/+spec/linaro- toolchain-kernel-debugging
Ulrich Weigand and Michael Hope will continue discussions around where we will go in terms of helping kernel debugging next cycle, it might be that we end up working on similar areas than the ones you and I discussed (special handling for linux in GDB -- tasks, backtracing across kernelspace/userspace; OpenOCD fixes...).
Your slides don't seem to be at https://events.linuxfoundation.org/events/embedded-linux-conference- europe/titinger yet, so perhaps you could share a link with Michael and Ulrich? or post on the linaro-toolchain@ mailing-list
We'll be a bit busy this week, but if you want to discuss your patches, upstreaming, further developments, I would think Michael can arrange for you to join a Toolchain WG call in the next weeks -- Michael, I'll let you comment once you get to see the slides :-)
