Hello,
Do remote stubs have the ability to send logging messages to the gdb console ?
I am trying to debug a Darwin target and seeing the dmesg (or similar)
output would
be useful. The stub Darwin uses for gdb works over ethernet and I
can't figure out
how to direct the dmesg output to the host I'm debugging from (there
is no serial
port either since it's a Mac, so no serial console as far as I can tell).
The "Remote serial protocol" manual section suggests notification packets would
be usable for this, but "Stop: reply" is the only such packet type listed.
Has someone already done this ? Or am looking at it the wrong way ? Syslog's
remote capabilities seem overkill here.
Thanks,
Bogdan
