Could this be something useful for us, especially considering it looks like a combination of msrtool, inteltool etc? I'd like to make sure we don't reinvent the wheel here.
Quoting from the description page: "PP is intended to provide infrastructure and tools to describe and manipulate hardware registers and fields. Once described, it is possible to read and write fields symbolically. This allows one to browse the state of their hardware." http://code.google.com/p/prettyprint/
It's definitely an interesting project. The idea, as I understand, is to basically define a language for describing hardware state + registers that is useful for systems software. Basically, a way to write HDL that can be used from a C++ library or some such.
