Introduction
|
||||
============
|
||||
|
||||
This tool can utilize a crash log on a PC to simulate a set of GDB server functionalities,
|
||||
enabling the use of GDB to debug the context of a NuttX crash.
|
||||
The script directory is located in ``tools/minidumpserver.py``.

|
||||
2. `make -j`
|
||||
3. Flash image to esp32s3-devkit.

Raw file Example
|
||||
================
|
||||
1. If you obtain the memory file from your board, you can also use gdbserver.py to reconstruct the scene.
|
||||
The most common way to get the raw file is to use the dump memory command
|
||||
in GDB to dump the memory and save it as a file.
|
||||
|
||||
2. Run `./tools/gdbserver.py -e nuttx -r rawfile:0x1000 -a arm`
|
||||
3. Run gdb with target remote.
|
||||
|
||||
Coredump Example
|
||||
================
|
||||
1. If you have a coredump, you also can run `./tools/gdbserver.py -e nuttx -c coredump -a arm`
|
||||
2. Run gdb with target remote.
|
||||
|
||||
The benefit of this approach is that in a multi-core AMP system,
|
||||
a single coredump might contain memory information from other cores.
|
||||
By analyzing this coredump along with the corresponding ELF files from
|
||||
the other cores, you can reconstruct the crash site of those other cores.
|
||||
|
||||
Thread awarenes
|
||||
===============
|
||||
|
||||
`gdbserver.py` implements thread debugging based on `g_pidhash`, `g_npidhash`,
|
||||
and `g_tcbinfo` in NuttX. If the log, raw file, or coredump you provide can read these variables,
|
||||
it means you can use thread-related commands in GDB, such as `info thread` or `thread`
