thanks for information and pushing the project forward.
I hope I find some day some time to test RTEMS
on TMDX570LC43HFK which I have long time there...
I hope that it would work with OpenOCD, it should
be functional without Flashing.

I am happy that this work continues and I have call with
Premek today to check that he has received your other
e-mail. He is happy too that his thesis work has some use
and promised to reply to your by another e-mail in two, three
days to have his personal reply recorded. Generally we
agree with change of our RTEMS contribution to BSD-2-Clause.
Keeping reference to the university and authors listed
is preferred.

By the way, as I have announced earlies, Michal Lenc's
thesis on RTEMS CAN/CAN FD support progresses

  https://gitlab.fel.cvut.cz/otrees/rtems/rtems-canfd/-/tree/master/lib/candrv

This week, he has implemented rough initial version of connection
of rtems_filesystem_file_handlers_r (can-bus.c) to FIFOs system
ported from LinCAN. Not tested yet... This work has plan
to target Zynq system but if there is some project in which
we can participate by targetting our CAN work more
to TMS570LC4357, we would consider to rearrange priorities.

I have bought two BeagleV-Fire boards to my company as well

  https://www.beagleboard.org/boards/beaglev-fire

and it could be nice target where we can test RTEMS for hard
realtime in addition to Linux and NuttX. Again if there
is for example some ESA or other project which could
use our work, we can change mode from tinkering and long
term investment into targeting concrete goals and terms.
We plan to test our PXMC motion control HDL and SW on this
platform to have prepared continuation to our previous
LX_RoCoN Cortex-M based systems already used at ESA.

There is some possibility that I will teach computer
architectures in the space oriented course so replacement
of Raspberry Pi by BeagleV-Fire and RTESM could be
great demonstrator on ExoMy or other platform
