Hi,
We have a GDB Server which manages connections to embedded targets. We
have a monitor command for doing a lengthy operation on the target device.
We want to report the status of this lengthy operation back to gdb
periodically. Is there any support for this in GDB Remote Serial Protocol?
Thanks,
Jiju George

Not yet. But Jim Blandy drafted a proposal for progress reporting
last year, which I hope we will implement eventually. I don't think
it was posted.
For monitor commands, you could just send back an O packet with an
informative message periodically.
