Re: ARM - RDI ethernet support

[James Ingham <jingham at cygnus dot com>]

Dave,

The code that gdb uses to do ARM/RDI over UDP is all code that ARM
contributed.  It does not use the main GDB TCP/IP code.  The ARM code
was originally incorporated to provide serial support for the ANGEL
monitor, and it has been tested to some extent for that purpose.  The
UDP code just came along for the ride.  It has not been extensively
tested by anyone here at cygnus.  I don't know of anyone else who has
used it much either.

At present, I don't think we have a way to test this, but if you can
fix any of the bugs you are seeing, we will be happy to help get the
patches into the main line of gdb...
