Help needed with Cross/Remote GDB

Help needed with Cross/Remote GDB

[Ashray Prasad]

Hi,
My lab partner and I have to build a cross-debugger for an A.S.I.C. known as the SE3208, and we're having some troubles doing so (he's working on i686-Linux & I'm working on the MinGW port).

We are *BOTH* getting this error in the following two functions:

[aprasad@localhost build-gdb]$ make -s all
Making all in doc
Making all in po
Making all in po
libsim.a(sim-load.o)(.text+0x58): In function `LSSEXT32':
../../../gdb-5.3/sim/common/sim-n-bits.h:182: undefined reference to `sim_io_er
or'
libsim.a(sim-load.o)(.text+0xcc): In function `MSSEXT32':
../../../gdb-5.3/sim/common/sim-n-bits.h:198: undefined reference to `sim_io_er
or'
collect2: ld returned 1 exit status
make[2]: *** [run] Error 1
make[1]: *** [all] Error 2
make: *** [all-sim] Error 2

We're hoping that somebody would know how to fix this.

Other information that may be of use are the following versions of programs:

GCC 3.2
BinUtils 2.14
NewLib 1.11.0
GDB 5.3

We'd really appreciate it if anyone could give us some advice, since we're not having much luck trying to find a solution.

Sorry, we probably can't help you.  It sounds like you're working on a
custom port, and your port is trying to build a simulator, but the
simulator has not been properly ported.  Also, this is a very old
version of GDB.

Your message says sim_io_eror; there's a sim_io_error in sim-io.c.
