* GDBserver supports evaluation of breakpoint conditions. When
|
||||||
|
support is advertised by GDBserver, GDB may be told to send the
|
||||||
|
breakpoint conditions in bytecode form to GDBserver. GDBserver
|
||||||
|
will only report the breakpoint trigger to GDB when its condition
|
||||||
|
evaluates to true.
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
* New options
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
set breakpoint condition-evaluation
|
||||||
|
show breakpoint condition-evaluation
|
||||||
|
Controls whether breakpoint conditions are evaluated by GDB ("gdb") or by
|
||||||
|
GDBserver ("target").
|
||||||
|
This option can improve debugger efficiency depending on the speed of the
|
||||||
|
target.
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
* New remote packets
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
The z0/z1 breakpoint insertion packets have been extended to carry
|
||||||
|
a list of conditional expressions over to the remote stub depending on the
|
||||||
|
condition evaluation mode. The use of this extension can be controlled
|
||||||
|
via the "set remote conditional-breakpoints-packet" command.
