GDB
with a Tandem ST2000
To connect
your ST2000 to the host system, see the manufacturer’s manual. Once ST2000
is physically attached, you can run target
st2000 dev speed to
establish it as your debugging environment.
dev
is normally the name of a serial device, such as /dev/ttya,
connected to the ST2000 via a serial line. You can instead specify dev
as a TCP connection (for example, to a serial line attached via a terminal
concentrator) using the syntax, hostname:portnumber.
The load
and attach
commands are not defined for this target; you must load your program into
the ST2000 as you normally would for standalone operation. GDB reads debugging
information (such as symbols) from a separate, debugging version of the
program available on your host computer.
The following auxiliary GDB
commands are available to help you with the ST2000 environment:
st2000
command
Send a command
to the STDBUG
monitor. See the manufacturer’s manual for available commands.
connect
Connect the controlling
terminal to the STDBUG
command monitor. When you are done interacting with STDBUG,
typing either of two keystroke sequences gets you back to the GDB command
prompt: using the Return
key, then the tilde key (˜),and
then the period (.)
key; or the Return
key, the tilde key, and then, simultaneously, the Control
and uppercase D
keys).
