#!/usr/bin/env python

#
# A script which parses ESP-IDF panic handler output (registers & stack dump),
# and then acts as a GDB server over stdin/stdout, presenting the information
# from the panic handler to GDB.
# This allows for generating backtraces out of raw stack dumps on architectures
# where backtracing on the target side is not possible.
#
# Note that the "act as a GDB server" approach is somewhat a hack.
# A much nicer solution would have been to convert the panic handler output
# into a core file, and point GDB to the core file.
# However, RISC-V baremetal GDB currently lacks core dump support.
#
# The approach is inspired by Cesanta's ESP8266 GDB server:
# https://github.com/cesanta/mongoose-os/blob/27777c8977/platforms/esp8266/tools/serve_core.py
