Hello,
I'm trying to debug kernel (vmlinux) with kgdb
I am using gdb version 7.9.1.
These are the logs in eclipse (host) and in target:
In eclipse I see the following:
Python Exception <type 'exceptions.ImportError'> No module named gdb:
/home/ubuntu/dtu/jjj/gdb-7.9.1/gdb/gdb: warning:
Could not load the Python gdb module from `/home/tigran/gdb/share/gdb/python'.
Limited Python support is available from the _gdb module.
Suggest passing --data-directory=/path/to/gdb/data-directory.
