Remote debug support in gdb for ia64 ?

Remote debug support in gdb for ia64 ?

[Deepak Gupta]

Hello Everybody

I am trying to use GDB to remote debug  a Linux Kernel
running on an IA64 Machine. I am running the GDB on an
i386 Machine. 

Does GDB have remote debugging support for an IA64
Machine. I could not find any file of the sort -
ia64-stub.c. If GDB does have support, lpease be kind
enough to let me know the corresponding file in the
GDB Source Code.

Thanking you,
Deepak

Remote debugging of user space code (via gdbserver) used to work.
I haven't tried it in a very long time, so I don't know if it still
works or not.

There is no (example) IA-64 stub file included with the GDB
distribution.  You'll have to do this part yourself.
