[Gdb] gdb-5.0 on SPARC/solaris 7

[Martin Bell]

Hi,

I've been having problems getting gdb-5.0 on SPARC/solaris 7 to work
with GDBServer on an ARM target.

To recap - I was having the following fatal error...

----------------------------------------------------------------
s unchanged
touch stamp-tvals
gcc -c  -o armemu26.o -DHAVE_CONFIG_H
-DDEFAULT_INLINE=0                      -DMODET -DNEED_UI_LOOP_HOOK
-I. -I. -I../common -I./../common  -I../../include -I./../../include
-I../../bfd -I./../../bfd  -I../../opcodes -I./../../opcodes

gcc: No input files
*** Error code 1
make: Fatal error: Command failed for target `armemu26.o'
Current working directory /........./gdb-5.0/sim/arm
*** Error code 1
make: Fatal error: Command failed for target `all'
Current working directory /........./gdb-5.0/sim
*** Error code 1
make: Fatal error: Command failed for target `all-sim'
----------------------------------------------------------------


In order to have gdb-5.0 configured as follows....

./configure --host=sparc-sun-solaris2.7 --target=arm-linux

...here is what I had to do (this is possibly perculiar to my
system)....

In the directory /..../gdb-5.0/sim/arm/  there is a sub Makefile. To
over-come the above fatal error I replaced the "$<" of the following
snip with "armemu.c" and found the gdb make (for connecting to an ARM
target) finished sucessfully!

This snip is around line 656-ish...



armemu26.o: armemu.c armdefs.h armemu.h
 $(CC) -c $< -o armemu26.o $(ALL_CFLAGS)

armemu32.o: armemu.c armdefs.h armemu.h
 $(CC) -c $< -o armemu32.o -DMODE32 $(ALL_CFLAGS)


Remote debugging from SPARC to ARM works fine.

Regards,

Martin.
