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.

Here is another patch to hopefully enhance rtems' configuration.
Motivation: Try to support other c-compilers besides gcc (I tried to
build rtems under Solaris using sun's WSPro c-compiler).
Here is a couple of small patches concerning the host compiler
configuration, which fix/work-around the worst problems when using sun's
WSPro c-compiler.
Changes:
* Replaced make/compilers/gcc.cfg with make/compilers/gcc.cfg.in, ie.
gcc.cfg is generated by configure now.
* Removed a line containing a hard-coded "gcc" from gcc.cfg (BUG-fix).
* Add -g to host compiler flags only if configure reported -g to work
* Add -Wall to host compiler flags only if configure reported that the
host compiler is gcc (WSPro's cc chokes on -Wall).
* Some modifications to make/Makefile.in
* Adapted make/custom/default.cfg to the new location of gcc.cfg
BTW, gcc.cfg/gcc.cfg.in seems to be full of unused code (DEBUG-VARIANTS
etc.) which deserves to be cleaned up, IMO.
IMO, a similar patch should be applied to gcc-target-default.cfg
