- Subject: porting GDB to a new target
Hi,
I want to port GDB to AVR on my personnel interest.
I went to through the GDB internals doc and came to know that first i
need to understand the target architecture details, AVR in my case.
But i am not clear on these lines
1. What are the initial steps i should follow to complete this?
2. What target dependency functions i need to implement and what
target details determine
these?
2. What all target architecture details i should consider and how they
are related to each other
architecture detail in porting. e.g. call frame implementation
varies with presence/use of
frame pointer etc
3. Where can i get the target architecture details? mainly i am looking for AVR.
Any online source link would be very helpful.
Thanks in advance.
Regards,
Ram
