I want to do remote debugging of applications on an
embedded Linux target. I can't run gdb on the target
in some scenarios due to memory limitations. (The embedded
target is self-contained an boots from 2 MB flash memory).
Has anyone done any work in this area ??? (It seems that at
the very least it would require a remote version of ptrace.)
Thanks,
Stuart

Cool...

Check out gdbserver, in gdb/gdbserver. It's basically a little
proxy for ptrace, it makes the ptrace calls, and communicates
with the host GDB via the standard remote protocol (target remote
or target extended-remote).
