gdb-toys
Experimental clients using the GDB remote protocol.
These are a set of command line tools that talk to gdbserver to perform debugging operations.
-
gdbi: An interactive prompt for sending raw protocol commands to gdbserver and reading their replies. The packets are automatically wrapped with begin and end markers, with checksum, and the replies are decoded from escape characters and run-length-encoding before printing.
-
gdbtrace: A simple signal/syscall tracer via gdbserver. It aims to be similar to what you would get from
strace, though not decoded. (yet?) A gdbserver patch is required for syscall support: https://sourceware.org/ml/gdb-patches/2013-09/msg00992.html
