</span>I definitely second the approach Pavel suggests here, and am happy to<br>
work with others on refactoring the Linux lldb-server so that we can<br>
get it to support both FreeBSD and NetBSD at the same time.<br>
<br>
A direct port of the current FreeBSD support probably would result in<br>
a basic level of support running sooner, but that work would be<br>
largely thrown away in a future migration to lldb-server.<br></blockquote><div><br></div><div>Just to throw out another option: DS2 (DebugServer2) at <a href="http://github.com/facebook/ds2">http://github.com/facebook/ds2</a> may be another option to getting remote debugging working. It already has basic BSD support, so adding NetBSD support shouldn't be too difficult.</div><div> </div><blockquote class="gmail_quote" style="margin:0 0 0 .8ex;border-left:1px #ccc solid;padding-left:1ex">
