I was reading the gdb RSP manual recently and I found a number of small problems in the documentation. This patch attempts to improve these areas. Specfically: * The term "memory breakpoint" is used only in this section of the manual, and there inconsistently. I found this term confusing -- initially I thought it might be a watchpoint. This patch changes it to use the term "software breakpoint", which is used in the rest of the manual. * The z0 packet didn't document how "kind" was written. And, it had a stray link to the architecture-specific protocol details node. This patch moves this link to a better spot. * The z1 patch didn't document that it accepts cmd_list. * I couldn't find any text saying what response is given to a command like vCont in non-stop mode. The answer is that OK is sent, and then a stop reply is sent as a notification. This patch adds a note about this. * The "create" stop reply did not document that the "R" argument is ignored. * The "W", "X", and "w" packets did not document how the "AA" part is formatted. * The %Stop notification example said "%%Stop", but I think this is incorrect. 2016-09-28 Tom Tromey <tom@tromey.com> * gdb.texinfo (Packets) <z0>: Use "software breakpoint" rather than "memory breakpoint". Further document "kind". Move protocol-details link earlier. <z1>: Document the cmd_list argument. Fix typo. <g>: Remove incorrect sentence. (Stop Reply Packets): Document "OK" response to requests when in non-stop mode. <swbreak>: Use "software breakpoint" rather than "memory breakpoint". <create>: Document that "R" is ignored. <W, X, w>: Document formatting of "AA". (Notification Packets): Use "%Stop", not "%%Stop".
README for GNU development tools This directory contains various GNU compilers, assemblers, linkers, debuggers, etc., plus their support routines, definitions, and documentation. If you are receiving this as part of a GDB release, see the file gdb/README. If with a binutils release, see binutils/README; if with a libg++ release, see libg++/README, etc. That'll give you info about this package -- supported targets, how to use it, how to report bugs, etc. It is now possible to automatically configure and build a variety of tools with one command. To build all of the tools contained herein, run the ``configure'' script here, e.g.: ./configure make To install them (by default in /usr/local/bin, /usr/local/lib, etc), then do: make install (If the configure script can't determine your type of computer, give it the name as an argument, for instance ``./configure sun4''. You can use the script ``config.sub'' to test whether a name is recognized; if it is, config.sub translates it to a triplet specifying CPU, vendor, and OS.) If you have more than one compiler on your system, it is often best to explicitly set CC in the environment before running configure, and to also set CC when running make. For example (assuming sh/bash/ksh): CC=gcc ./configure make A similar example using csh: setenv CC gcc ./configure make Much of the code and documentation enclosed is copyright by the Free Software Foundation, Inc. See the file COPYING or COPYING.LIB in the various directories, for a description of the GNU General Public License terms under which you can copy the files. REPORTING BUGS: Again, see gdb/README, binutils/README, etc., for info on where and how to report problems.
