gdb_sync can be used to tell GDB not to execute a step/continue upon the next step/continue, but return immediately. This will refresh the GDB copy of the target registers. Upon target connection, gdb_sync is executed implicitly and thus the first stepi/continue received will in fact not step, but just refresh GDB's copy of the target registers. The effect is that: target remote xxx load stepi => will place pc at the *first* instruction in the load application, rather than at the second. -- Øyvind Harboe US toll free 1-866-980-3434 / International +47 51 63 25 00 http://www.zylin.com/zy1000.html ARM7 ARM9 ARM11 XScale Cortex JTAG debugger and flash programmer _______________________________________________ Openocd-development mailing list Openocd-development@lists.berlios.de https://lists.berlios.de/mailman/listinfo/openocd-development
