Hi all,

It seems that gdbserver is not (or no more) supported on OSes other than 
Linux. Am I missing something?
(I would like to remotely debug code running on a armeb--netbsdelf 
target machine, from an i386 host)

If gdbserver is actually no more supported on NetBSD, is there an 
equivalent application?

Christophe.

When I took over maintenance of gdbserver, the non-GNU/Linux ports were
all in really bad shape.  Most of them didn't even build.

When I redid the GNU/Linux ports, I also cleaned up a lot of the common
code.  Adding a NetBSD target would probably be easy, but it would
require some moving of code from GNU/Linux specific files into a common
ptrace support module.

I see. It's really a pitty, gdbserver is really practical and I 
intensively use it on FreeBSD.

All it needs is a volunteer to do the work!
