Hi,
GDB for Android: * Submitted upstream three patches for building gdbserver on Android. Reworked two of them based on review comments, and committed one. * Investigated ARM EABI build attributes and .note.ABI-tag as ways of marking binaries as Android apps so that GDB can differentiate them from regular Linux ARM binaries. Build attributes are quite sophisticate and overkill for this purpose, and would also be out of place for Android on x86. .note.ABI-tag is simpler and more appropriate. Now experimenting with generating the .note.ABI-tag section on Android binaries. * Tried to find ARM GNU/Linux ABI supplement [1] but couldn't, contacted Mentor Graphics' webmaster about the problem. No response so far.
Obs: This Friday (04/06) will be a holiday in Brazil and hopefully I will be AFK.
