Remote 'g' packet reply is too long 错误

在 用 kgdb 调试64位arm内核的时候，当一切准备停当，在aarch64-linux-gnu-gdb 下输入 target remote /dev/ttyUSB0 后，gdb报出Remote ‘g’ packet reply is too long 的错误。

(gdb) target remote /dev/ttyUSB0

在网上找了很久，最后还是翻墙用google找到了正确的答案。
先说一下原因，在4.4内核的kgdb代码中，cpsr 寄存器的长度是64bit的，而在我用的aarch64-linux-gnu-gdb 中， cpsr 寄存器的长度被定义成32bit了，这样两边就无法匹配。正规的解决办法应该是下载最新的gdb，重新编译。但是编译gdb很麻烦，所以在stackoverflow上有人给出了一个简单的办法：
下载gdb源代码，然后把其中的aarch64-core.xml aarch64-fpu.xml aarch64.xml 这3个文件复制到你的工作目录下面，确保 aarch64-core.xml 中的cpsr 寄存器的长度为64位（我下的gdb7.8,这个问题还没有修复）

<reg name="cpsr" bitsize="64"/>

然后 在gdb 中，在执行 target remote /dev/ttyUSB0 之前，输入如下命令，以更新寄存器定义

set tdesc filename aarch64.xml

这样做了以后，就可以在64位的ARM内核上使用kgdb了。
