Open source remote and wireless debugger ctxLink

 
Overview

Supports various Cortex-M cores, can be used wirelessly in the local area network, and can be used remotely in the external network.

ctxLink is an open hardware, open firmware debug probe based on the Black Magic Probe (BMP) that supports Wi-Fi connectivity and battery-powered operation. It implements SWD and JTAG interfaces for remote, cable-less programming and debugging of ARM Cortex-M microcontrollers.

When connected to a battery or powered by a target, ctxLink brings remote hardware to your source-level debugger, whether you're debugging a robotic system, programming a shielded device, working around a bulky enclosure, or just a little further from the couch Hacking on your project, ctxLink can help you. What if your goal is really far away? Like being in another remote country? ctxLink works too. Simply configure your router to forward incoming connections to the GDB server port to ctxLink, and your local debugger will gain access to the remote device. Network deployment of ctxLink can be managed via Wi-Fi Protected Setup (WPS) or HTTP configuration using a smartphone.
