Hello,
What debug capabilities does latest gdb have for multi-core/SMP systems?
Please let me know about both homogeneous and heterogeneous systems.
Regards,
Nitin

SMP systems on linux should be no problem . Linux application debug
should be fine and seemless.
I am not aware of any support for multi-core debugging of bare metal
applications using gdb .

Heterogenous isn't available as is but its possible to build one if you
get the right data structures and the right set of commands. Look in the
archives for earlier discussions on this.

as Cell B./E. (e.g. Playstation 3) is a heterogeneous multi-core processor you may want to take
a look at the 'combined debugger' (ppu-gdb) found here: http://www.bsc.es/projects/deepcomputing/linuxoncell/
'spu-gdb' is the spu-only port of GDB to debug SPU applications. 'ppu-gdb' is capable of debugging applications
consisting of both PPU (PowerPC 970) and SPU parts (e.g. cross-architecture backtraces).
