ARM DS-5 Using the Debug Hardware Configuration Utilities

Configuring debug hardware for GDB9.7 Methods of connecting from remote GDB sessionsThe method you use to connect to a target depends on:• the resources required by the target application (for example, an IP stack)• the debugging facilities available on the target (for example, a GDB stub)• whether or not your target has an embedded OS, such as Linux, that is running gdbserverinstances.9.7.1 See alsoTasks• Preparing your debug hardware for remote GDB connections on page 9-21• Loading and booting a complete system on page 9-26• Multiprocessor debugging with GDB and debug hardware on page 9-34.Concepts• About configuring debug hardware for debugging with GDB on page 9-3• Connection methods for each debugging mode on page 9-10• Connections to a target without built-in GDB support (RVI-GDB) on page 9-11• Connections to a target with a GDB stub (Target-GDB) on page 9-13• Connections to a target GDB stub using Virtual Ethernet/TTY mode (Target-GDB-VirtualEthernet) on page 9-15• Connections to a target OS using gdbserver (GDBserver) on page 9-17• Connections to a target OS using NFS (GDB-NFS) on page 9-19.ARM DUI 0498F Copyright © 2010-2012 ARM.
