  To: gdb

I built arm-linux and put it on the board. Also I built a cross-compiler 
(using uclibc)
I've done everything as described in
http://roland.seuhs.com/en/index.php/Development/LiMa/CDB89712

When I came to the point that I need to debug an application I got stuck 
(hello world perfectly works on target as standalone application but not 
with gdb).

I tried to build a cross-platform gdb and gdbserver. I tried below
steps to do this:

1.Unpack gdb

  $cd $ARM_ROOT/src
  $tar xzvf ../dl/gdb-5.3.tar.gz

Make symbolic link (easier for next steps if you don't have same
version)

  $ln -s gdb-5.3 gdb

2. Build gdb

  $cd $ARM_ROOT/src/gdb/
  $./configure --host=i686-pc-linux-gnu --target=arm-linux
  $make
  $strip gdb/gdb

Check that we client for Intel platform:

  [root@sardine gdb]# file gdb/gdb
  gdb/gdb: ELF 32-bit LSB executable, Intel 80386, version 1 (SYSV),
dynamically linked (uses shared libs), stripped
  [root@sardine gdb]#

  $cp gdb/gdb /usr/local/bin/arm-gdb

3. Build gdbserver

  $cd $ARM_ROOT/src/gdb/gdb/gdbserver/
  $chmod u+x configure

Remove cache file

  $rm config.cache
  $export CC=$ARM_ROOT/arm-linux-uclibc/bin/arm-uclibc-gcc
  $./configure --target=arm-linux --host=arm-linux --build=i386-linux
  $make clean
  $make

Check output file

  [root@sardine gdbserver]# file gdbserver
  gdbserver: ELF 32-bit LSB executable, ARM, version 1 (ARM),
dynamically linked (uses shared libs), not stripped
  [root@sardine gdbserver]#

Copy into the target's ramdisk

  $cp gdbserver $ARM_ROOT/ramdisk/target/usr/bin/


As result I got a Illegal Instruction message when I started this up.

On host:

[Dmytro@sardine Dmytro]$ arm-gdb -nw

Thanks in advance for any help,

Thank you Daniel,

I got a CVS snapshot and I have a little different result now.
I tried to compile it the same way (arm-linux) and using 
armv4l-unknown-linux option but in both cases result was the same 
"Segmentation fault"
Below I attached a debug output from gdb and gdbserver.
May be I am doing something plainly wrong?
Another interesting detail I noticed - in previous version I had 
0x00008110 in _start () in this version 0x40000d20 in ?? ().
