This patch adds XMEGA PDI programming support using the Programmable Realtime Unit (PRUSS) available on AM335x based boards like Beaglebone Black. You can program an XMEGA in-circuit without requiring any external hardware, with only a few extra components in your circuit. Note that the programmer needs a custom firmware that needs to be loaded to the PRU (also attached here). Avrdude loads the firmware and communicates with it to be able to program the firmware on XMEGA. E.g.

Joerg, thanks for you answer.
Some comments below.
About the documentation missing I'll prepare a second version including the .texi and man page files. About hardcoding the path name I have another version of this patch that uses and extra parameter to specify the location of the firmware files, but seeing your answer might be not enough, I'll try to investigate how to handle this part with autoconf parameter and see how it works on Windows
Finally, the firmware is open [1] so that shouldn't be a problem, I guess
