I am currently working on a project to port the MIPS/Linux to Evaluation
board
and am interested in using kgdb to debug the kernel that we are using.
The MIPS/
Linux kernel is 2.3.19 and looks like it has remote kernel debugging
built into the
kernel source. My question is the necessary code that I am going to
need on both
my development system and the target system. When connecting with kgdb
to my
MIPS target board, are there any modifications to the host side gdb (in
my case this
is a pentium box running linux)? Does this use standard gdb? Are the
patches that
are available on the sgi website (kgdb0.2-2.2.12) merged into the kernel
that we are
using? Any additional information that anybody can provide concerning
kgdb and
the debug process would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks,
Jeff
