Hi all:
I have made a new ARM v5T's simulator. I wanna binding this
simulator with gdb and insight. So, the first step is to make my
simulator work with gdb...
You can write a gdbserver-like part in your simulator. Then communicate
with GDB using TCP, UART or other way.
I found in that $insight_home/src/sim/arm/wrapper.c play a role to
communicate the simulator and gdb withoud TCP. It looks simple. Is it
possible that I write a wrapper for my simulator?
I don't know if it is possible. From my point of view, maybe it is harder
than writing a gdbserver. Because GDB's build-in simulator is possibly
working in totally different way with your simulator. You should change
yours to meet its demands. Writing a gdbserver is only adding something,
it can work well with different version of GDB.
But I still have no idea that how to binding those things (especially
for the gdb and my simulator).
Any suggestion is welcome!!
Thanx!
Dave.
