Anybody had luck with compiling gdbserver for mipsel? I am using x86
based machine running Fedora 2.6.11 kernel, the target device is IDT 434
running Mipsel 2.6.10 kernel. The gcc crosscompiler is mipsel-linux-gcc
and version 3.2.3.
I did a ./configure --host=mipsel-linux-gnu --target=mipsel-linux-gnu
followed by a make. Make failed with the messages:
/opt/mipseltools/mipsel-linux/sys-include/sys/ptrace.h:33: syntax error
before numeric constant
/opt/mipseltools/mipsel-linux/sys-include/sys/ptrace.h:49: syntax error

[root@Clearnet gdbserver]# nano
/opt/mipseltools/mipsel-linux/sys-include/sys/ptrace.h
The content of ptrace.h has the enums declared as
/* Type of the REQUEST argument to `ptrace.' */
enum __ptrace_request
{
/* Indicate that the process making this request should be traced.
All signals received by this process can be intercepted by its
parent, and its parent can use the other `ptrace' requests. */
PTRACE_TRACEME = 0,
<==================================line 33
#define PT_TRACE_ME PTRACE_TRACEME
/* Return the word in the process's text space at address ADDR. */
PTRACE_PEEKTEXT = 1,
#define PT_READ_I PTRACE_PEEKTEXT
..which looks pretty normal to me , anybod yhave any clue?
Thanks,
Ratin
