A cross-point switch that arbitrates multi-masters (CPU I-stream, CPU D-stream, either UPDI controller or CRC); it's synchronous as there are cycle impacts due to accesses of specific parts of the unified memory space.
1. Cycle time for data memory accesses assume internal RAM access and are not valid for accesses to the NVM. A minimum of one extra cycle must be added when reading Flash and EEPROM.
2. One extra cycle must be added when accessing lower (64 bytes of) I/O space.
Hmm. SNAP now working, too. I don't know if that's because I restarted MPLAB, or had it plugged in wrong, or what...
Breakpoints are a little messed up. MPLAB claims that there is only a single HW breakpoint (the datasheet says 2.) And it doesn't seem to "re-arm" the breakpoint, so it'll get hit once after a reset, but not if it's in a loop that is continued thereafter. (Hmm. This may be a code optimization problem of some kind?)
That was my guess, but it specifically claims that with only 1 breakpoint, it can't do the things that I thought it would be considering "its own use."

I ordered two nanos; and just ran my first led-binker program using gcc-8.3. I just connect to my USB port and execute "cp main.hex /media/matt/CURIOSITY" to download.
Yup, the Curiosity nano is pretty good, and, importantly, cheap, but lacks the marketing hype of Arduino.
Apparently the mega32U4 has definitelly been abandoned as interface and replaced by a SAMD11 in this new Arduino nano. The Curiosity nano has a SAMD21. So they seem pretty much the same thing with different branding.
edit: Well, the Microchip version has debugging and that's a big plus.
Yes, that's the relatively new over-equipped $45 Uno-format board. The very newly announced Nano-format board doesn't have it, AFAIK (it uses a SAMD11 as USB/Serial. So... Maybe? Schematics not released yet, but I didn't think that anyone was fitting debug code in as little as 16k of flash.)
(also, One instance: in a new-fangled "modular" schematic, I think. So it appears once as a module, and once withing the module as a chip.)

Right, mEDBG runs on Mega32U4, while the Curiosity has a SAMD21 that runs nEDBG, which is apparently an upgrade of mEDBG. I doubt it can fit on a SAMD11.

It would be an interesting coding challenge, though. I keep hope that the Arduino folk will come up with some sort of "simplified debugging" model that would fit their user base and still be interesting.
It looks like an i386 gdb stub is about 8k, for example...

It must include USB code, debug code and programming code. Of those, I can say (since I wrote an example of such code) that the UPDI programming module should be about 3Kb on AVR, thumb code for a SAMD should be a bit larger. Not much larger, I expect, since thumb2 has good code density. This is using a simpler, older interface like STK600. The modern EDBG protocol is more complex, so it will take up more space, mostly protocol red tape. I'm, sure GDB is even more complex, because it must be more generic.
I estimate the debug code should be somewhat larger, let's say twice as large (6Kb). Still leaves plenty of room for the USB interface stuff.
So I guess it should be possible to fit a UPDI specialized debugger in 16k if you use a simplified protocol. I think I'd go for STK600, it's supposed to support UPDI.
A guess, various corrections throughout entire document. I don't have previous revision (B) to compare, neither does Wayback Machine. Does anyone else have it?

TopI don't think they want to explain this code in the errata, but there is a workaround-
https://www.avrfreaks.net/forum/atmega0-level-1-interrupt-does-not-work
Its not tested, but if the only problem is getting a reset vector instead of the level1 vector, then it should work.
The forum user who wanted that code, probably never saw it.

Looks like errata 2.8.1 (CPUINT) is a transient (only errata with 'date code')
