Ah, now I know why we are not communicating.
I have an embedded system with a proprietary OS. This system has a minimal gdb server running on it. Let's call this
the target
system.
My host is a Windows NT/Cygwin or Linux Box running gdb which is talking to the gdb server on the target machine.
The problem is that I have a process running on the target (no video, X, etc.) and am debugging on the host. My process
uses a shared library and I need to add the capability of tracing into it.
Ok, what do I need to add (commands, data, etc.) to my gdb server to trace into these libraries? Is the spec written
down?
