[lldb-dev] did anyone konw LLDB support lldb + openocd to run dotest.py in bare board like ARM or other non-x86 architecture?

Hi

    sorry, i'm confuse, in my mind, lldb-server maybe like gdb-server,
running on Linux-like platform  listening RSP command which send form gdb
and use ptrace syscall to debug which you want to debug program

    is it support remote download to batch mode run all testsuite?
certainly i think reset baseboard is very important feature too,  but in
lldb-server maybe not support currently i guess.

Best Regards
