应用调试使用gdb

编译，使用的编译器：arm-2009q3

编译gdb
tar -zxvf gdb-7.11.1.tar.gz
cd gdb-7.11.1/
./configure --target=arm-none-linux-gnueabi --prefix=/work/system/gdb_install/
make
make install
或者
make install prefix=/work/system/gdb_install/

把arm-none-linux-gnueabi-gdb复制到/bin目录

编译gdbserver

cd gdb/gdbserver/

./configure --host=arm-none-linux-gnueabi

make CFLAGS="-static"

复制gdbserver到开发板上 

 

编译要调试的应用，编译时加上-g选项
arm-none-linux-gnueabi-gcc -g -o test_debug test_debug.c

#include <stdio.h>

void C(int *p)
{
	*p = 0x12;
}
void B(int *p)
{
	C(p);
}
void A(int *p)
{
	B(p);
}
void A2(int *p)
{
	C(p);
}
int main(int argc, char **argv)
{
	int a;
	int *p = NULL;

	A2(&a);  // A2 > C
	printf("a = 0x%x\n", a);

	A(p);    // A > B > C

	return 0;
}

 

 在开发板上：

gdbserver 10.168.10.121:2345 ./test_debug

 在PC上
/bin/arm-none-linux-gnueabi-gdb 
输入：target remote 10.168.10.121:2345
然后: 使用gdb命令来控制程序

出现这个Remote 'g' packet reply is too long: 

要修改gdb/remote.c文件中的static void 
process_g_packet (struct regcache *regcache)函数：

process_g_packet (struct regcache *regcache)
{
  struct gdbarch *gdbarch = get_regcache_arch (regcache);
  struct remote_state *rs = get_remote_state ();
  struct remote_arch_state *rsa = get_remote_arch_state ();
  int i, buf_len;
  char *p;
  char *regs;

  buf_len = strlen (rs->buf);

  /* Further sanity checks, with knowledge of the architecture.  */
  //if (buf_len > 2 * rsa->sizeof_g_packet)
  //error (_("Remote 'g' packet reply is too long: %s"), rs->buf);

	if (buf_len > 2 * rsa->sizeof_g_packet) 
	{
		rsa->sizeof_g_packet = buf_len;
		for (i = 0; i < gdbarch_num_regs (gdbarch); i++)
		{
			if (rsa->regs[i].pnum == -1)
				continue;
			if (rsa->regs[i].offset >= rsa->sizeof_g_packet)
				rsa->regs[i].in_g_packet = 0;
			else
				rsa->regs[i].in_g_packet = 1;
		}
	}
....
}

使用core dump 文件调式 

 将生成的core文件复制到pc端

/bin/arm-none-linux-gnueabi-gdb ./test_debug ./core
