+# This module to be used for testing gdb with a "gdbserver"
+# built either from libremote or from gdb/gdbserver.
+#
+
+# Load the basic testing library, and the remote stuff.
+load_lib ../config/monitor.exp
+
+#
+# To be addressed or set in your baseboard config file:
#
-# For this to function correctly, you need to set a number of variables
-# in your gdb/site.exp file
+# set_board_info gdb_protocol "remote"
+# Unles you have a gdbserver that uses a different protocol...
#
-# set noargs 1 -- we can't pass arguments (yet)
-# set noinferiorio 1 -- we can't get io to/from the inferior
-# set targethost <host> -- name of the remote system (runs gdbserver)
-# set debughost <host> -- name of the system running gdb
-# set port <number> -- starting port number for communication
-# set gdbserver <path> -- path (on the remote side) to find
-# gdbserver
-# set rsh <path> -- path (on debughost side) to rsh
-# set rcp <path> -- path (on debughost side) to rcp
-#
-# You will need to be able to spawn processes from gdbhost to run on
-# targethost via rsh (this is how we start gdbserver); similarly
-# you need to be able to rcp files from gdbhost to targethost.
+# set_board_info use_gdb_stub 1
+# This tells the rest of the test suite not to do things
+# like "run" which don't work well on remote targets.
#
-# We don't do much error checking, if something goes wrong, you'll probably
-# just get a tcl error and everything will die. FIXME
+# set_board_info gdb,do_reload_on_run 1
+# Unles you have a gdbserver that can handle multiple sessions.
#
+# set_board_info noargs 1
+# At present there is no provision in the remote protocol
+# for passing arguments. This test framework does not
+# address the issue, so it's best to set this variable
+# in your baseboard configuration file.
+# FIXME: there's no reason why the test harness couldn't
+# pass commandline args when it spawns gdbserver.
+#
+# set_board_info gdb,noinferiorio 1
+# Neither the traditional gdbserver nor the one in libremote
+# can presently capture stdout and relay it to GDB via the
+# 'O' packet. This means that tests involving printf will
+# fail unles you set this varibale in your baseboard
+# configuration file.
+#
+# set_board_info gdb,no_hardware_watchpoints 1
+# Unles you have a gdbserver that supports hardware watchpoints.
+# FIXME: gdb should detect if the target doesn't support them,
+# and fall back to using software watchpoints.
+#
+# set_board_info gdb_server_prog
+# This will be the path to the gdbserver program you want to test.
+# Defaults to "gdbserver".
+#
+# set_board_info sockethost
+# The name of the host computer whose socket is being used.
+# Defaults to "localhost". Note: old gdbserver requires
+# that you define this, but libremote/gdbserver does not.
+#
+# set_board_info socketport
+# Port id to use for socket connection. If not set explicitly,
+# it will start at "2345" and increment for each use.
