Re: processor threads

Hi Michael,

   I mean to say that we are having 4 hardware threads.  Our company 
has its own processor on which we will be working.         The processor 
currently we are working has 4 threads in it.

   Each thread has it own set of registers (ex: program counter).

   Currently the GDB which we are using is supporting only single 
thread (ex: thread 0).
   Now we trying to use GDB for remaining threads.

   My Question is does GDB handles hardware threads??


Thanks,
Nagaraj.
