I am trying to debug the kernel through kgdb for an imx6 sabre lite board with
the following kernel built from poky 1.4:
root@imx6qsabrelite:~# uname -a
Linux imx6qsabrelite 3.0.35-1.1.0+g2dc5560 #1 SMP PREEMPT Thu Aug 8 15:15:39
CEST 2013 armv7l GNU/Linux
The system boot well but when I try to enter in debugging mode it returns:
root@imx6qsabrelite:~# echo g > /proc/sysrq-trigger
SysRq : HELP : loglevel(0-9) reBoot Crash terminate-all-tasks(E)
memory-full-oom-kill(F) kill-all-tasks(I) thaw-filesystems(J) saK
show-backtrace-all-active-cpus(L) show-memory-usage(M) nice-all-RT-tasks(N)
powerOff show-registers(P) show-all-timers(Q) unRaw Sync show-task-states(T)
Unmount ETM buffer dump show-blocked-tasks(W)
root@imx6qsabrelite:~#
I have configured the kernel with the command:
bitbake -c menuconfig linux-imx
enabling:
-*- Magic SysRq key
[*] Kernel debugging
[*] Compile the kernel with debug info
[*] KGDB: kernel debugger
<*> KGDB: use kgdb over the serial console
I have also edited defconfig file in
fsl-community-bsp-dylan/sources/meta-fsl-arm/recipes-kernel/linux/linux-imx-3.0.35/mx6q/
adding:
CONFIG_FRAME_POINTER=y
CONFIG_DEBUG_KERNEL=y
CONFIG_KGDB=y
CONFIG_DEBUG_INFO=y
CONFIG_KGDB_SERIAL_CONSOLE=y
CONFIG_MAGIC_SYSRQ=y
and added kernel parameter to bootargs with:
MX6QSABRELITE U-Boot > editenv mmcargs
edit: setenv bootargs console=${console},${baudrate} root=${mmcroot}
kgdboc=ttymxc1,115200
MX6QSABRELITE U-Boot > saveenv
Saving Environment to MMC...
Writing to MMC(0)... done
MX6QSABRELITE U-Boot > boot
but it still does not work.
Thank You.
Giuseppe
