Hi,
? I am remote debuging?a multi threaded app on a powerpc e500v2 dual
processor running linux 2.6.32 while the host gdb is x86_64 linux
machine. The version of gdb is 7.3.1.?On hitting a tracepoint, I want
to collect the timestamp. I am wondering is there is any way of doing
it currently on this gdb. If not, I was wondering if I can collect the
timebase registers?(tbl and tbu). The current register dump does not
show?the contents of these register on e500v2 although I have seen an
entry?for other powerpc processor.
Is there?a way I can quickly add support?for these registers.?If
someone can point me to?file/doc/previous patches to do this I will be
grateful.
?Cheers!
Abhi
