<raguet@crf.canon.fr>:
- the dec21140 driver code has been hardened (various bug fixed) Emmanuel,
- bug in the mcp750 init code have been fixed (interrupt stack/initial
stack initialization), BSS correctly cleared (Eric V)
- remote debugging over TCP/IP is nearly complete (berakpoints,
backtrace, variables,...) (Eric V),
- exception handling code has also been improved in order to fully
support RDBG requirements (Eric V),

This is an attempt to work-around a couple of nasty bugs in librdbg's
Makefiles and configuration:
Configure and build RTEMS as below:
configure --enable-networking --enable-rdbg --target=i386-rtems
make RTEMS_BSP=i386ex
After a few minutes you will notice that building aborts in librdbg ....
Analysis:
1) librdbg is tried to be built, though librdbg is not supported and the
required directory hierarchy librdbg/i386/i386ex/ is not existant.
The cause for this is incorrect setting of HAS_RDBG in most
make/custom/*.cfg files (except pc386.cfg). At the moment all
custom/*.cfg files (except pc386.cfg) in general are required to contain
HAS_RDBG=no. However, having HAS_NETWORKING=no in most custom/*.cfg
files and the toplevel configure script suppress building librdbg for
all CPUs except of i386.
=> The i386ex BSP falls though this scheme and librdbg is tried to be
build (CPU=i386 and HAS_NETWORKING=yes).
2) The Makefile.ins below lib/librdbg in general support i386/pc386 only
and are not capable to be used for multiple CPUs or BSPs (RPCGEN
generates it's target and bsp-specific files into librdbg/, therefore no
other CPU or BSP can ever be built afterwards). This problem is hidden
until now, because only a single CPU/BSP pair (i386/pc386) is really
supported.
3) The Makefile.ins below lib/librdbg can delete source files due to
improper handling of source files (make clean removes the *.x files in
the source-tree when configuring inside of the source-tree).
The patch below tries to work-around these problems for the i386ex and
the pc386 BSPs. This work-around is rather fragile (it applies rpcgen
-D, I don't know how portable this is) and incomplete (all custom/*.cfg
except of pc386.cfg should contain HAS_RDBG=no), nevertheless it should
work.

and RPC support to RTEMS. Thanks. :) Email follows:
Hello,
For Xmas, here is the Remote Debugger on RTEMS !
Here are 2 patches for the Remote Debugger on RTEMS for pc386 from Linux
host :
- one for RTEMS it self,
- one for GDB-4.17.
1/ RTEMS patch
--------------
This patch adds 2 libraries :
- a simplified SUN RPC library
- the Remote Debugger library
The configuration command is the following :
../rtems4/configure --target=i386-rtemself --enable-rtemsbsp=pc386
--enable-rdbg
The SUN RPC library is built only if networking is set.
The RDBG library is built if networking and enable-rdbg are set.
The function used to initialize the debugger is :
rtems_rdbg_initialize ();
A special function has been created to force a task to be
in a "debug" state : enterRdbg().
The use of this function is not mandatory.
2/ GDB-4.17 patch
-----------------
This patch create a new RTEMS target for GDB-4.17.
The configuration command is the following :
./configure --enable-shared --target=i386RTEMS
To connect to a target, use :
target rtems [your_site_address]
Then, attach the target using : attach 1
And... Debug ;)
You can obtain the original GDB-4.17 on
ftp://ftp.debian.org/debian/dists/stable/main/source/devel/gdb_4.17.orig.tar.gz
This has been tested from a Debian 2.0.1 linux host.
