Fix a few outdated or incoherent things in the README:
- Don't mention remote.c nor *-stub.c files as references for the remote
protocol. remote.c is in GDB, not GDBserver, and *-stub.c files don't
exist today. Add a link to the documentation instead.
- In the "server (target) side" section, use `:2345` instead of
`host:2345`. It currently says that using `host:2345` means we would
expect a connection from `host`. That's not what I would expect by
passing a host part here. If I passed `11.22.33.44:2345` as the listen
address, I would expect it to instruct gdbserver to listen only on that
(11.22.33.44) network interface, not to expect a connection from host
`11.22.33.44`. So, remove that part of the sentence.
- Remove the list of supported target, refer to configure.srv instead.
Keeping a list here is bound to lose sync with reality.
- In the cross-compile instructions, I don't think it's necessary to mention
"In a Bourne shell".
- In the cross-compile instructions, I don't know what passing
`your-target-name` to configure does, I don't think it's valid. Use
`make all-gdbserver` as in the instructions just above.
gdbserver/ChangeLog:
* README: Fix a few outdated or incoherent things.
Change-Id: I79349e25bc1bc53447855e0dea6cc7b9630f4553
This patch moves gdbserver to the top level.
This patch is as close to a pure move as possible -- gdbserver still
builds its own variant of gnulib and gdbsupport. Changing this will
be done in a separate patch.
[v2] Note that, per Simon's review comment, this patch changes the
tree so that gdbserver is not built for or1k or score. This makes
sense, because there is apparently not actually a gdbserver port here.
[v3] This version of the patch also splits out some configury into a
new file, gdbserver/configure.host, so that the top-level configure
script can simply rely on it in order to decide whether gdbserver
should be built.
[v4] This version adds documentation and removes some unnecessary
top-level dependencies.
[v5] Update docs to mention "make all-gdbserver" and change how
top-level configure decides whether to build gdbserver, switching to a
single, shared script.
Tested by the buildbot.
