I placed a tar image of just the gdbserver sub-directory on ppc.kernel.org.
It is in the embedded directory.  The binary is built for an R4 system.
The code is from a 4.17 version of gdb.  I believe all of the changes
are in low-linux.c.

It works with the latest kernels, and I also built an out-of-the-box
version of Cygnus Insight on a LinuxPPC 1999 host that worked fine with
it.

I hope someone that knows more about this than I can make these changes
look prettier and ensure it finds its way into a standard release.

Have fun.

Dan,

Send me your patches and I'll see what I can do.  If you don't have
a copyright assignment on file with the FSF, you'll need to fill one
out before I can incorporate your changes though.  (Yes, I know it's
a hassle.)

Thanks,

Kevin

Where can I get gdbserver source or binary package ... its not included with
Mandrake 8.1

On the web we can find 1000+ page talking about how to use it ... but I cant
find a place from where to get it.

thank you
