* gdb fails to ack run-length encoded packets

In hopes of speeding up my debugging process, I have implemented RLE in
my remote stub, as outlined here:
https://sourceware.org/gdb/onlinedocs/gdb/Overview.html
However gdb fails to acknowledge these packets, and responds with '-' to
request a resend, ad infinitum. Is there anything special I need to
configure for gdb to recognize RLE packets?

How do you calculate your checksum? You should checksum the encoded data,
not the uncompressed data.

Ah, that makes sense. You're right, I was still summing the non-encoded
data. I changed it just now and got it to work. Thanks!
