SLEEPING_THREAD_TO_G(9) 				     Kernel Debugger Internals					   SLEEPING_THREAD_TO_G(9)

NAME

       sleeping_thread_to_gdb_regs - Convert ptrace regs to GDB regs

SYNOPSIS

       void sleeping_thread_to_gdb_regs(unsigned long * gdb_regs, struct task_struct * p);

ARGUMENTS

       gdb_regs
	   A pointer to hold the registers in the order GDB wants.

       p
	   The struct task_struct of the desired process.

DESCRIPTION

       Convert the register values of the sleeping process in p to the format that GDB expects. This function is called when kgdb does not have
       access to the struct pt_regs and therefore it should fill the gdb registers gdb_regs with what has been saved in struct thread_struct
       thread field during switch_to.

NAME

       gdb-add-index - Add index files to speed up GDB

SYNOPSIS

       gdb-add-index filename

DESCRIPTION

       When GDB finds a symbol file, it scans the symbols in the file in order to construct an internal symbol table.  This lets most GDB
       operations work quickly--at the cost of a delay early on.  For large programs, this delay can be quite lengthy, so GDB provides a way to
       build an index, which speeds up startup.

       To determine whether a file contains such an index, use the command readelf -S filename: the index is stored in a section named
       ".gdb_index".  Note that the index is never generated for files that do not contain DWARF debug information (sections named ".debug_*").

       See more in the GDB manual in node "Index Files" -- shell command "info -f gdb -n 'Index Files'".

       properly installed at your site, the command
