Hello all, I noticed that gdbserver isn't fully supported by FreeBSD, which makes it difficult for it to be remotely debugged. Because FreeBSD is commonly used in embedded systems, I could imagine that a gdbserver ported over to FreeBSD would have some use. Of course, there are some issues that would prevent easy code migration. Specifically, one of the issues with FreeBSD's gdbserver, that I feel isn't handled well, is the lack of thread awareness of the gdbserver. It looks like linux' flavor of gdbserver may be able to handle multithreading, but it doesn't seem to be very obvious.
Has anyone ever tried porting over the linux version of gdbserver to FreeBSD? And if not, what other obvious changes would have to be made?
