Subject: [U-Boot] Problem using CodeSourcery 2010.9-50 ARM GDB to debug U-boot w/BDI
Date: Mon, 17 Jan 2011 13:55:12 -0500 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <4D349090.10401@logicpd.com> (raw)
I'm using the latest ARM GDB from CodeSourcery with a BDI to debug
U-Boot 2010.12-rc3 on my hardware and I have a problem trying to access
symbols in .bss after loading the symbol table to the relocated
address. Apparenlty GDB is translating symbols in .text but not symbols
in .bss:
Current directory is
/home/peter/work/logic/eps_svn/software/products/linux/LTIB/trunk/ltib-20101216/rpm/BUILD/u-boot-svn/board/ti/logic/

(gdb) p/x ((gd_t*)$r8)->reloc_off
$3 = 0xfb74000
(gdb) p/x ((gd_t*)$r8)->relocaddr
$4 = 0x8ff74000
My version of u-boot is linked at 0x80400000, and the relevant addresses
from the u-boot ELF file are:
8041dde0 T NS16550_getc
804783fc b htab
NS16650_getc has been properly translated from 0x8041dde0 by 0xfb74000
(as the symbol table is loaded at address 0x8ff74000 instead of
0x80400000), but htab has not been translated.
Has anyone seen this type of problem before? Any suggestions?
Thanks in advance!
