Query regarding usage of GDB command line option

[AmeyaVSingh]

Hello,

I have a query regarding the command line option: --gdb.
How do I use the option to enable remote GDB session?

Currently I have observed the GDB output on stdout.
I have written a script which redirect the whisper simulator stdout and stdin through netcat.

But it is an inelegant solution since, I lose any stdout prints from riscv binaries linked with newlib.

Thank you for the assistance.

Hi Ameya, I apologize for not documenting how to use the --gdb option. I will do so later today. Meanwhile, here's a quick howto: 1. You need to use gdb from the riscv toolchain. 2. If your target riscv program is xyz, then you would issue the command: gdb xyz 3. Then you would issue the gdb command: target remote | whisper --gdb xyz Joe
