Re: Packing "R" actions in a QTDP packet

Are you sure? That's not my recollection, though admittedly
it's been 5 years or so... In my mental picture, the R bitmask
goes somewhere in the QTDP message, just *before* the memranges.
There is of course only one 'R' <thing> per tracepoint,
because it's a bitmask...

I simply document the protocol as allowing actions to be packed
together as much as you like as long as the overall packet size
doesn't get too big, or should I say that 'R' actions require a packet
unto themselves?
