From: "Steve Kossar" <skossar@paragon-networks.com> Date: Mon, 5 Apr 1999 09:58:22 -0400 I am interested in using gdb with an AMD 29K based target (custom hardware). Can someone point me to: - low-???.c (low-a29k.c?) for use with gdbserver. We already have an IP stack running on the target. - a stub for the 29k (a29k-stub.c?) for use with the remote protocol This is an either-or kind of thing usually; gdbserver is designed to be a host-side program that you would not typically run on an embedded processor. Usually you want to write a stub and then integrate it into your target system software in some useful way. As far as I know, no one has written a generic stub for the a29k. To learn how to write a stub (it's not too hard), look in the GDB manual, in the section entitled "the GDB remote serial protocol", as well as the existing stubs in the sources (i386-stub.c is probably the simplest to work from). At present, the top of remote.c is the most accurate documentation of the actual protocol, although I want to make the manual be the real spec that the source code is supposed to follow (novel idea eh? :-) ) Stan Shebs shebs@cygnus.com
