Hi all,
I have modified my local copy of lldb in order that it can gdb-remote to
an in-house gdb-rsp server. However after I connect to my target, the
target list command informs me that my target's platform is "host".
e.g.
(lldb) target list
Current targets:
* target #0:
/home/mg11/src/main/devtools/main/heracles/csrgdbserver/test/examples/simple/kalgsd5te_hello.elf
( arch=kalimba-csr-unknown, platform=host, pid=1, state=stopped )
Is this correct for a embedded target connected over gdb-rsp?
When I invoke platform list I see:
(lldb) platform list
Available platforms:
host: Local Linux user platform plug-in.
remote-freebsd: Remote FreeBSD user platform plug-in.
remote-linux: Remote Linux user platform plug-in.
remote-windows: Remote Windows user platform plug-in.
remote-gdb-server: A platform that uses the GDB remote protocol as the
communication transport.
So I wondered why my target doesn't report remote-gdb-server as it's
target. Should it?
Could someone clarify what this concept of platform means? I understand
the concept of the host as being the Machine/OS where the debugger user
is worked at, and the target as being the "thing being debugged", which
could be co-located on the host (in either a 32-bit or 64-bit form) or
remotely located, in particular for an embedded device, but where does
the idea of the platform fit in?
all help appreciated,
