Unfortunately the protocol doesn't support any directory related operations. It is possible to implement custom semihosting "syscalls" and it wouldn't be that hard to add support of those to OpenOCD, but that would leave out other debugging tools. > >> + >> +Example:: >> + >> + mount -t smhfs /dev/null /mnt/smhfs > > Are actions on the host required to do that?

I can't speak for any implementation other that OpenOCD's, but what that tool does is it returns the value of host's 'errno' after executing a corresponding syscall. > > Sascha > > -- > Pengutronix e.K. | | > Industrial Linux Solutions | http://www.pengutronix.de/ | > Peiner Str. 6-8, 31137 Hildesheim, Germany | Phone: +49-5121-206917-0 | > Amtsgericht Hildesheim, HRA 2686 | Fax: +49-5121-206917-5555 | _______________________________________________ barebox mailing list barebox@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx http://lists.infradead.org/mailman/listinfo/barebox
