i.MX Devtool Agent

Container side of i.MX Devtool. It is installed automatically into your devcontainer as a dependency of i.MX Devtool; you do not need to install it yourself.

It receives the USB and UART connections that i.MX Devtool forwards from the machine the board is plugged into, attaches the USB devices to the remote kernel's vhci_hcd (so uuu sees them as local devices) and exposes the UARTs as /dev/ttyIMX-<name>.

See the i.MX Devtool page for the required devcontainer settings.
