Function Documentation

void gdb_arch_continue

(

lvaddr_t

addr

)

Resume program execution.

Parameters

addr	Address to resume at, or 0 to continue at last address.

int gdb_arch_set_register	(	int	regnum,
		uintptr_t	value
	)

Set the value of a single register in the frame.

Parameters

regnum	register number (as defined by the #gdb_register_nums enum)
value	new value

Returns

Zero on success, nonzero on failure (invalid regnum).

void gdb_arch_single_step

(

lvaddr_t

addr

)

Single-step program execution.

Parameters

addr	Address to resume at, or 0 to continue at last address.

void gdb_stub_entry	(	int	signal_code,
		char *OPT NTS	init_message
	)

Generic entry point to the GDB stub.

Wait for a remote GDB to start talking to us, and then service its requests. This function should run on a different stack the main kernel, and does not return.

Parameters

signal_code	Unix-style signal value indicating reason for interruption
init_message	Optional initial message to send to the remote GDB
