I know there are series of patches, but that series is as compact as
possible, and this is the whole thing that makes SWD work using
LibSWD. Commits are small and each one of them brings some new
functionality. I would love to have them commited into master so I can
work along with other stuff :-)

Existing SWD code in OpenOCD is extrelmely experimental anyways so
people that work on their own implementation will know what to do,
other functionalities remains untouched :-)

I want to move forward for internals reorganization, so adding new
interfaces, transport and targets is easier and standarized... at the
moment everyone creates their own implementation and this is not the
best way I guess :-)

I will try thanks :-) I just was wondering on how to work with Gerrit
when other people update your commits that are already on the Gerrit,
there should be a easy way for this, we should document that in
Developers Guide as well :-)

Best regards :-)
