Subject: No code to flush instruction cache in gdbserver?
Date: Mon, 01 Aug 2005 09:32:00 -0000	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <6f48278f0508010232b6c5149@mail.gmail.com> (raw)

Hi,

I have  a question about gdbserver. For some architectures it's needed
to flush instruction cache to maintain the cache coherency after
inserting or removing breakpoint. However, I found there is no cache
flush code in gdbserver. So here are my questions:

1. Is it needed to flush instruction cache in gdbserver? If not, why?

2. If yes, is there not code do cache flush in gdbserver or just I
didn't find them?

3. If there is no such code, is there any effort on going to add it currently?


Any comments will be appreciated.

Thanks,
Jie
