[ECOS] Debugging via Ethernet. (on i386 platform)

[Fabrice Gautier]

Hi,

I now have an ethernet driver that seems to work ok with the eCos tests.

Now that I have this driver I would like to use it as a debug channel. (at
least for download and/or diagnostic output)
I think this is already possible on some platform. At least the RedBoot demo
at ESC was showing that.

But how do I do it with my i386?
Is there some tcp/ip support in the gdb stub (that i should port) ? Or does
RedBoot provide the stub with a channel (serial or ip) transparently (so
porting redboot will give me that - and lot more ) ?
Does converting the i386 port to use the eCos/ROM Monitor Calling Interface
would help ?

Thanks
