Re: Tracepoints and Timestamps

Hi Hui,

    Thanks for the pointer ... However after going through the
gdbserver source code, I realise that there is no tracepoint support
for linux-ppc. So now I have a even bigger problem on my hand.

Does anyone know if I can ppc tracepoint support being actively
developed and if I can lay my hands on this experimental code.


The tracepoint support in GDBserver is pretty generic, and if you don't need fast tracepoints, there's not really anything that is arch-specific.

I would suggest enabling target_supports_tracepoints for ppc and letting us know how it goes. If it "just works", then we could change the target_supports_tracepoints test to make it unconditional - fast tracepoint support has its own availability check at runtime, it could subsume the architecture check.
