|

|
|
If you are trying to debug a program running on a machine that cannot run
|
||
|
|
<span class="sc">gdb</span> in the usual way, it is often useful to use remote debugging.
|
||
|
|
For example, you might use remote debugging on an operating system kernel,
|
||
|
|
or on a small system which does not have a general purpose operating system
|
||
|
|
powerful enough to run a full-featured debugger.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
<p>Some configurations of <span class="sc">gdb</span> have special serial or TCP/IP interfaces
|
||
|
|
to make this work with particular debugging targets. In addition,
|
||
|
|
<span class="sc">gdb</span> comes with a generic serial protocol (specific to <span class="sc">gdb</span>,
|
||
|
|
but not specific to any particular target system) which you can use if you
|
||
|
|
write the remote stubs—the code that runs on the remote system to
|
||
|
|
communicate with <span class="sc">gdb</span>.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
<p>Other remote targets may be available in your
|
||
|
|
configuration of <span class="sc">gdb</span>; use <code>help target</code> to list them.
