Building GDB with SIS - -To build GDB with the SIS/ERC32 simulator, configure with option -'--target sparc-erc32-aout' and build as usual. - -2. Attaching the simulator - -To attach GDB to the simulator, use: - -target sim [options] [files] - -The following options are supported: - - -nfp Disable FPU. FPops will cause an FPU disabled trap. - - -freq <f> Set the simulated "system clock" to <f> MHz. - - -v Verbose mode. - - -nogdb Disable GDB breakpoint handling (see below) - -The listed [files] are expected to be in aout format and will be -loaded in the simulator memory prior. This could be used to load -a boot block at address 0x0 if the application is linked to run -from RAM (0x2000000). - -To start debugging a program type 'load <program>' and debug as -usual. - -The native simulator commands can be reached using the GDB 'sim' -command: - -sim <sis_command> - -Direct simulator commands during a GDB session must be issued -with care not to disturb GDB's operation ... - -For info on supported ERC32 functionality, see README.sis. - - -3. Loading aout files - -The GDB load command loads an aout file into the simulator -memory with the data section starting directly after the text -section regardless of wich start address was specified for the data -at link time! This means that your applications either has to include -a routine that initialise the data segment at the proper address or -link with the data placed directly after the text section. - -A copying routine is fairly simple, just copy all data between -_etext and _data to a memory loaction starting at _environ. This -should be done at the same time as the bss is cleared (in srt0.s). - - -4. GDB breakpoint handling - -GDB inserts breakpoint in the form of the 'ta 1' instruction. The -GDB-integrated simulator will therefore recognize the breakpoint -instruction and return control to GDB. If the application uses -'ta 1', the breakpoint detection can be disabled with the -nogdb -switch. In this case however, GDB breakpoints will not work. - - -Report problems to Jiri Gaisler ESA/ESTEC (jgais@wd.estec.esa.nl) |
