Hi Michael,
Very pleased with the information you provided.
Still I have certain doubts in mind.
Tracepoints can b implemented through either
remote stubs or gdbserver or gdb agents (byte-coding).
Is this
true?..................................................
which can be best suited to me as I am accessing
my fpga/processor through a parallel port jtag. I dont want to
burden my processor by running a server on it.
The problem here , I googled in net and I didn't
even find a single prototype to have a fell of how to trace
data(trace points) on my target .
Sumanth,
How does gdb talk to your jtag device? Is it
a) directly to the parallel port, or
b) through a serial connection to an agent that controls the parallel
port?
If b, and if using the gdb remote serial protocol, then there's your
agent into which you can add the tracepoint smarts.
