There are still some (hopefully minor) issues, but I have fully implemented all that is needed to use jtag. I can now freeze a plug on demand, make it dump registers or memory and continue executing. I'll finish cleaning up and start with the filesystem. For the adventurous there is a tar in my co

I am not sure this fits into a /proc kind of interface because JTAG lets you access the bare hardware. Nemo has just pointed to me that a process is not the same as a running kernel, and maybe the abstraction does not fit that well. Often cross debugging of embedded systems does not take place o

FWIW - the BGDBFS stuff had some aspects of this. I never quite got to the point of targeting it with acid though (particularly not multi-node). It would be an interesting extension, but IIRC it would also require some pretty invasive changes to ACID (or I could have just been looking at it wrong

I've used JTAG to debug and program a couple of embedded systems. I even had an automated regression test suite that tested some AVR hardware using gdb running on Gentoo talking to an JTAG. Freaky but fun. If I recall correctly many chips will allow you to see and twiddle internal registers
