A JTAG debugger could have similar support built in, but
the one I've got doesn't.

Yes. In theory it could. 

It is more than just theory... :-)  We have done this for a
couple of different CPUs using JTAG and ICE.  Just think
gdb server ;-)


How did you do that? Making a special gdb server deamon which connects via a JTAG adapter?

Yes, exactly. A gdbserver daemon that talks gdb protocol to a gdb client, interpreting the requests from that gdb client, and uses a JTAG/whatever device to extract the information from the target.

Or have you done your own software on a JTAG adapter?
