Re: [PATCH] Another board file for remote host

[Yao Qi <yao at codesourcery dot com>]

Hi, here is the V2 to address comments I've got from Jan and Pedro:

 - Add more comments in the board file.
 - Rename variable tmp_gdb to host_dir, and set it to
   $build/gdb/testsuite/remote-host.
 - I also tried to copy file to $build/gdb/testsuite/remote-host with
   the directory, say copy file $src/gdb/testsuite/gdb.dwarf2/file1.txt
   to $build/gdb/testsuite/remote-host/gdb.dwarf2/file1.txt.  This
   is suggested by Jan but GDB is unable to find file1.txt, because GDB
   test harness doesn't set search directories for remote host, see
   gdb_reinitialize_dir in lib/gdb.exp:

proc gdb_reinitialize_dir { subdir } {
    global gdb_prompt

    if [is_remote host] {
	return ""
    }

   so we have to set the search directory in the board file like

      set_board_info gdb_opts "-d \"${host_dir}\""

   and copy file there without directory.

Subject: [PATCH] Another board file for remote host

In the recent review to my patch about copying files to remote host,
we find that we need a board file which is more closely mapped real
remote host testing to improve coverage.  With the board file
local-remote-host-native.exp, DejaGNU copies files to
$build/gdb/testsuite/remote-host to emulate the effect of remote host.
Is it OK?
