Does anyone know the GDB protocol?
I'm using Insight and gdb ver GNU gdb 4.17-gnupro-98r2, runing the Mips-elf
toolset.
I dont seem to be able execute any code on the target. I'm able to acess the
targets memory and registers, without any problem.
Here's what I am doing:-
File->Open,
Run->Download
Run->Run
Insight then returns and locates to my __start lable. I then click on
Continue, and get this trace:-
Continuing.

What happens is that Insight returns to the same point in the code, which
looks as if the Continue was ignored.
If I could understand the trace I may get some clue to what is going wrong.
Can anyone help me?
Thanks
