交叉编译GDB

#文中arm-926ejs-linux-gnueabi-gcc为笔者使用crosstool-ng制作的工具链
#请注意交叉工具链的搜索路径

【一】下载源码包

gdb官网下载，这里下载的是gdb-7.8.2.tar.xz，放在~/Downloads下。
http://www.gnu.org/software/gdb/

依赖库ncurses，这里下载的是ncurses-5.9.tar.gz，放在~/Downloads下。
https://www.gnu.org/software/ncurses/

依赖库termcap，这里下载的是termcap-1.3.1.tar.gz，放在~/Downloads下。
http://ftp.gnu.org/gnu/termcap/

【二】宿主机准备我的PC的操作系统为ubuntu 14.04 x64，非debian系的请自行解决。
# 1.运行库和工具准备
sudo apt-get install bison flex expect-dev build-essential m4 autoconf automake texi2html
# 2.创建安装目录，并增加写入权限，方便安装。所有交叉编译的库和软件都会被安装在这里
mkdir /opt/arm_root
sudo chmod a+w /opt/arm_root
# 3.创建编译目录
mkdir ~/buildspace

【三】交叉编译在ARM上运行的gdb和gdbserver
#1.termcap

cd ~buildspace
tar xf ~/Downloads/termcap-1.3.1.tar.gz
cd termcap-1.3.1
CC=arm-926ejs-linux-gnueabi-gcc ./configure --prefix=/opt/arm_root
make
make install

make install的时候报错/usr/bin/install: cannot remove ‘/usr/include/termcap.h’: Permission denied 不用理它……都指定了prefix，还往默认目录写头文件
# 2.ncurses

cd ~/buildspace
tar xf ~/Downloads/ncurses-5.9.tar.gz
cd ncurses-5.9
./configure --prefix=/opt/arm_root --host=arm-926ejs-linux-gnueabi --with-shared　　#--host=交叉编译器前缀。
make 
make install

# 3.gdb

cd ~/buildspace
tar xf ~/Downloads/gdb-7.8.2.tar.xz
mv gdb-7.8.2 gdb-7.8.2_arm
cd gdb-7.8.2_arm
./configure --host=arm-926ejs-linux-gnueabi --target=arm-926ejs-linux-gnueabi --prefix=/opt/arm_root --enable-static LDFLAGS="-L/opt/arm_root/lib" CFLAGS="-I/opt/arm_root/include" #指定库和头文件的路径
make
make install

完成后在/opt/arm_root/bin下就有在ARM上运行的gdb和gdbserver了。

【四】编译pc上运行，与gdbserver相同版本的gdb
实际上不同版本也能用，只是可能出现兼容性问题
重新解压一份gdb源码，用pc的gcc编译，指定target为我们的交叉工具链前缀即可

cd ~/buildspace
tar xf ~/Downloads/gdb-7.8.2.tar.xzmv gdb-7.8.2 gdb-7.8.2_arm
cd gdb-7.8.2
./configure --target=arm-926ejs-linux-gnueabi --enable-static  #使用操作系统的库
make
cp gdb/gdb ~/arm-none-linux-gnueabi-gdb

编译完成后，就能在~/buildspace/gdb-7.8.2/gdb下找到生成的gdb文件，拷贝出来重命名即可。

【五】配置嵌入式设备
#1.拷贝文件
#动态库
cp /opt/arm_root/lib/*.so* /home/rootfs/lib
#可执行文件
cd /opt/arm_root/bin
cp gdb gdbserver gcore /home/rootfs/usr/local/bin

#去除可执行文件的符号信息，减小体积
cd /home/rootfs/usr/local/bin/
arm-926ejs-linux-gnueabi-strip gdb
arm-926ejs-linux-gnueabi-strip gdbserver

#拷贝终端类型数据库
mkdir /home/rootfs/usr/share -p
cp /opt/arm_root/share/terminfo /home/rootfs/usr/share

#2.配置环境变量
修改/etc/profile，确保有以下两行

export TERM=vt102
export TERMINFO=/usr/share/terminfo

#3.测试
更新文件系统后，启动gdb，输入ctrl+x a（就是先按一次CTRL+X，松开再按一下A）切换到TUI模式。通过串口（minicom）运行就是如下这种样子，行号左侧B+表示有断点，>为当前行且会被高亮

需要注意,程序本身的输出可能破坏TUI的显示
