Hi All,
I am trying to settup the KGDB settup, for my STB BRCM board.
I have 3 UARTS -0,1,2 --
Boot the kdb enabled kernel.. but not able to get the --- gdb wait message --
I am setting up an environment for kernel debugging on my MIPS based
processor. In whatever document I read there I could get deatails of
debugging a PC but not the embedded board.
Still i tried to start session which was unsuccessful.
Configs enabled: CONFIG_KGDB=y
CONFIG_KGDB_CONSOLE=y
CONFIG_KGDB_8250_NOMODULE=y
CONFIG_SYS_SUPPORTS_KGDB=y
and I can see the change in size of the vmlinux.
while booting I have given command parameters :
boot -z -elf <vmlinuz path> "kgdb8250=1 115200" kgdbwait ------
but my kernel is not waiting for remote gdb to wait for the connection.
Am I missing anything ?
Help me to set it up ...
I had put pritnks I am getting
KGDB : kgdb_late_entry ..
KGDB: kgdb_arch_init .....
KDGB: kgdb_internal_init ....
KGDB: Setting kgdb_initialized ..
but normally going to login prompt ...
when I press ^C -- Breakpoint is catched -- then everyting come to halt ..
Thanks
prabhu
