   You don't have to specify the remote MAC, IIUC.

When i dont give the mac address, the mac address all FFs(default) is considered. So am giving the mac address too, only then its working properly.

   What, you don't have ARP on host?!
I have added the patch and the arp entry in the host for the target , only then the gdb and kgdb are communicating.

Even now it shows all FFs while booting but after booting i could bring up eth0 and ping.

Thanks

I have added few lines of code in driver/net/gianfar.c

void gfar_poll_gianfar(struct net_device *dev )
{
   disable_irq(dev->irq);
   gfar_interrupt(dev->irq, dev,  NULL);
   enable_irq(dev->irq);

}

This isn't complete, please use the community patch. Gianfar TSEC has 3 interrupts and all of them must be disabled.

Now am able to boot the target kernel without any error. kgdb waits for gdb connection.

   Have you backported the gianfar netpoll patch from 2.6.20-rc1?

I haven't backported the 2.6.20-rc1. As there are many patches under that tree , i didnt try for it and could not know which one to add.

You certainly didn't need to backport the whole 2.6.20-rc1, only a signle patch (-:
