Re: how to test arm-tdep.c (with cross compiled gdbserver) using gdbserver ?

Hi,

I have done following, and with that should be able to test arm-reversible 
stuffs with gdbserver.

> ./configure --target=arm-linux     <which will compile gdb for x86 takes arm 
>dependent code into build>
> make

> cd gdb
> cd gdbserver
> ./configure --host=arm-none-linux-gnueabi --target=arm-none-linux-gnueabi 

<above will preparegbserver for target, whihc could be later copied to arm 
board>

there are other targets such as arm-eabi, arm-elf.
but I am using arm-linux, hope thats ok and it works.

Regards,
Oza.

Subject: how to test arm-tdep.c (with cross compiled gdbserver)  using gdbserver 
?

Hi all,

suppose some changes are done in arm.-tdep.c (not linux related changes, but 
bare metal changes)
this is regarding reversible-debugging.

now, is it possible that I cross compile gdbserver for arm and put it on target.
then; have tcl/expect tests things running on x86 which remotely connects to 
gdbserver ?
will that test i386-tdep.c reversible ?

but I am not sure how do we get arm-tdep.c into picture from host ?

Regards,
Oza.
