Description

The support for new mbed-6LoWPAN-Border-Router-HAT is missing in pyOCD. Because of this debugging through eclipse and pyOCD fails with the following error:

Error in final launch sequence

Research direction

The issue names pyOCD and an Eclipse load failure but provides no source files, tests, or entry points. Start by locating existing board-support definitions for comparable mbed hardware and determine what is needed for the mbed-6LoWPAN-Border-Router-HAT; done means the board can be debugged through Eclipse and pyOCD without the reported load failure.
