| 1 | = GDB remote debugging = |
| 2 | |
| 3 | == gdbserver binary == |
| 4 | I compiled the attached gdbserver binary using the arm-linux-gnueabi toolchain using the -static link flag. |
| 5 | |
| 6 | It can be used without any extra software on the arm device. |
| 7 | |
| 8 | Copy it to the phone using: |
| 9 | |
| 10 | {{{ |
| 11 | adb push gdbserver /data/local |
| 12 | }}} |
| 13 | |
| 14 | === Starting gdbserver === |
| 15 | Start debugging your remote executable using: |
| 16 | {{{ |
| 17 | /data/local/gdbserver :3050 ./gdbtst |
| 18 | }}} |
| 19 | Assuming the the file gdbtest is the executable that you want to debug and the executable is in your current directory |
| 20 | === Redirect a port === |
| 21 | On your local PC use: |
| 22 | {{{ |
| 23 | adb forward tcp:1234 tcp:3050 |
| 24 | }}} |
| 25 | to forward the local port 1234 to the remote port 3050 |
| 26 | === Debug === |
| 27 | Start the debugger using: |
| 28 | {{{ |
| 29 | arm-linux-gnueabi-gdb ./gdbtst |
| 30 | }}} |
| 31 | And the in gdb use |
| 32 | {{{ |
| 33 | target remote :1234 |
| 34 | }}} |
| 35 | to start the remote debug session. |
