Re: [patch] Add semihosting documentation for nios2 and m68k

Hi Sandra,

I didn't see any docs for the HOSTED fields in the comments of the libgloss code.  Can you confirm that you didn't grab documentation from elsewhere that has copyright/license issues?  If the source of the docs was covered by the current code licenses for m68k and nios2 they can/should probably be used in the .txt files since the licenses allow for copying of documentation as long as the license is present.

Well, I read the libgloss code too, not just the comments. Also double-checked against the QEMU implementations, the GDB manual, and some old internal mailing list discussion. All of the nios2 and m68k semihosting code (both libgloss and QEMU) was originally written by me and other CodeSourcery folks, so I think we can license it under any terms we want.

Do these documentation files need copyright notices, too? :-S That didn't occur to me when I wrote them up.
