+@chapter Building the GNU Debugger
+
+GDB is not currently RTEMS aware. The following configurations have been
+successfully used with RTEMS applications:
+
+@itemize @bullet
+@item Sparc Instruction Simulator (SIS)
+@item PowerPC Instruction Simulator (PSIM)
+@item DINK32
+@end itemize
+
+Other configurations of gdb have successfully been used by RTEMS users
+but are not documented here.
+
+@section Unarchive the gdb distribution
+
+Use the following commands to unarchive the gdb distribution:
+
+@example
+cd tools
+tar xzf ../arc/@value{GDB-TAR}
+@end example
+
+The directory @value{GDB-UNTAR} is created under the tools directory.
+
+@c
+@c GDB Patch
+@c
+
+@section Apply RTEMS Patch to GDB
+
+@ifclear GDB-RTEMSPATCH
+No RTEMS specific patches are required for @value{GDB-VERSION} to
+support @value{RTEMS-VERSION}.
+@end ifclear
+
+@ifset GDB-RTEMSPATCH
+
+Apply the patch using the following command sequence:
+
+@example
+cd tools/@value{GDB-UNTAR}
+zcat arc/@value{GDB-RTEMSPATCH} | patch -p1
+@end example
+
+Check to see if any of these patches have been rejected using the following
+sequence:
+
+@example
+cd tools/@value{GDB-UNTAR}
+find . -name "*.rej" -print
+@end example
+
+If any files are found with the .rej extension, a patch has been rejected.
+This should not happen with a good patch file.
+
+To see the files that have been modified use the sequence:
+
+@example
+cd tools/@value{GDB-UNTAR}
+find . -name "*.orig" -print
+@end example
+
+The files that are found, have been modified by the patch file.
+
+@end ifset

+@section GDB with Sparc Instruction Simulation (SIS)
+
+@subheading Make the build directory
+
+Create a build directory for the SIS Debugger
+
+@example
+cd tools
+mkdir build-sis
+@end example
+
+@subheading Configure for the build
+
+Configure the GNU Debugger for the
+Sparc Instruction Simulator (SIS):
+
+@example
+cd tools/build-sis
+../@value{GDB-UNTAR}/configure --target-sparc-erc32-aout \
+ --program-prefix=sparc-rtems- \
+ --disable-gdbtk \
+ --enable-targets=all \
+ --prefix=<INSTALL_POINT_FOR_SIS>
+@end example
+
+Where <INSTALL_POINT_FOR_SIS> is a unique location where the gdb
+with SIS will be created.
+
+@subheading Make the debugger
+
+From tools/build-sis execute the following command sequence:
+
+@example
+gmake all install
+@end example
+
+
+@section GDB with PowerPC Instruction Simulator
+
+@subheading Make the build directory
+
+Create a build directory for the SIS Debugger
+
+@example
+cd tools
+mkdir build-ppc
+@end example
+
+@subheading Configure for the build
+
+Configure the GNU Debugger for the PowerPC
+Instruction Simulator (PSIM):
+
+@example
+cd tools/build-ppc
+../@value{GDB-UNTAR}/configure \
+ --target=powerpc-unknown-eabi \
+ --program-prefix=powerpc-rtems- \
+ --enable-sim-powerpc \
+ --enable-sim-timebase \
+ --enable-sim-inline \
+ --enable-sim-hardware \
+ --enable-targets=all \
+ --prefix=<INSTALL_POINT_FOR_PPC>
+@end example
+
+Where <INSTALL_POINT_FOR_PPC> is a unique location where the gdb
+with PSIM will be created.
+
+
+@subheading Make the debugger
+
+From tools/build-ppc execute the following command sequence:
+
+@example
+gmake all install
+@end example
+
+
+@section GDB for DINK32
+
+@subheading Unarchive the gdb distribution
+
+Use the following commands to unarchive the gdb distribution:
+
+@subheading Make the build directory
+
+Create a build directory for the DINK32 Debugger
+
+@example
+cd tools
+mkdir build-dink32
+@end example
+
+@subheading Configure for the build
+
+Configure the GNU Debugger to communicate with
+the DINK32 ROM monitor:
+
+@example
+cd tools/build-dink32
+../@value{GDB-UNTAR}/configure --target-powerpc-elf \
+ --program-prefix=powerpc-rtems- \
+ --enable-targets=all \
+ --prefix=<INSTALL_POINT_FOR_DINK32>
+@end example
+
+Where <INSTALL_POINT_FOR_DINK32> is a unique location where the
+gdb Dink32 will be created.
+
+@subheading Make the debugger
+
+From tools/build-dink32 execute the following command sequence:
+
+@example
+gmake all install
+@end example
