Expose QDL software programming via network with --tcpport? #315

Open richnetdesign opened 2 years ago

richnetdesign commented 2 years ago

Hi there,

I noticed the --tcpport option and find it intriguing, but haven't been able to find a client that can use it.

My goal is to have a feature to expose Qfirehose / QDL type software programming over the network for development and board farm type testing scenarios. This would help minimize the use of USB, which is contrained by ports and cable length. So QDL software loading can be performed at a distance.

Does this sound like something that is already possible? Or something that could potentially be developed. I may be a potential contributor with some guidance on where to start.

Thanks for the great project.

Hi, sure. It's basically already implemented in the server function. Not for firmware flashing though as it might need some network tuning due to large chunks being transferred. Let me know what you're thinking of.
