-
-@smallexample
-sparclet-aout-gcc prog.c -Ttext 0x12010000 -g -o prog -N
-@end smallexample
-
-You can use @code{objdump} to verify that the addresses are what you intended:

-If it fails
-to find a file, it displays a message such as:
-
-@smallexample
-prog: No such file or directory.
-@end smallexample

-the @value{GDBN} commands @code{path} and @code{dir}, and execute the
-@code{target} command again.

-@node Sparclet Download
-@subsubsection Sparclet Download
-
-@cindex download to Sparclet
-Once connected to the Sparclet target,
-you can use the @value{GDBN}
-@code{load} command to download the file from the host to the target.
-The file name and load offset should be given as arguments to the @code{load}
-command.
-Since the file format is aout, the program must be loaded to the starting
-address. You can use @code{objdump} to find out what this value is. The load
-offset is an offset which is added to the VMA (virtual memory address)
-of each of the file's sections.
-For instance, if the program
-@file{prog} was linked to text address 0x1201000, with data at 0x12010160
-and bss at 0x12010170, in @value{GDBN}, type:
-
-@smallexample
-(gdbslet) load prog 0x12010000
-Loading section .text, size 0xdb0 vma 0x12010000
-@end smallexample
-
-If the code is loaded at a different address then what the program was linked
-to, you may need to use the @code{section} and @code{add-symbol-file} commands
-to tell @value{GDBN} where to map the symbol table.

-You can now begin debugging the task using @value{GDBN}'s execution control

-
-When configured for debugging Zilog Z8000 targets, @value{GDBN} includes
-a Z8000 simulator.
-
-For the Z8000 family, @samp{target sim} simulates either the Z8002 (the
-unsegmented variant of the Z8000 architecture) or the Z8001 (the
-segmented variant). The simulator recognizes which architecture is
-appropriate by inspecting the object code.
-

-@kindex sim
-@kindex target sim@r{, with Z8000}
-Debug programs on a simulated CPU. If the simulator supports setup
-options, specify them via @var{args}.
-@end table
-
-@noindent
-After specifying this target, you can debug programs for the simulated
-CPU in the same style as programs for your host computer; use the
-@code{file} command to load a new program image, the @code{run} command
-to run your program, and so on.
-
-As well as making available all the usual machine registers
-(@pxref{Registers, ,Registers}), the Z8000 simulator provides three
-additional items of information as specially named registers:
-
-@table @code
-
-@item cycles
-Counts clock-ticks in the simulator.
-
-@item insts
-Counts instructions run in the simulator.
-
-@item time
-Execution time in 60ths of a second.
-
-@end table
-
-You can refer to these values in @value{GDBN} expressions with the usual
-conventions; for example, @w{@samp{b fputc if $cycles>5000}} sets a
-conditional breakpoint that suspends only after at least 5000
-simulated clock ticks.
