Hi all,

What is involved in adding a new target to gdb? Also is there any documentation
re this subject?

At present gdb's RSP supports only Serial and Ethernet communication, and I
am thinking of implementing USB support ( for a PC anyway ).

It depends on how the USB's device driver represents the device to the userland. If, for instance, it appears to be a serial device then GDB can talk to it already. If not, things get interesting.

You may want to look at the ser* code and implement a serial like usb driver.

Andrew
