+@c man end
+
+@c man begin DESCRIPTION gdb
+The purpose of a debugger such as @value{GDBN} is to allow you to see what is
+going on ``inside'' another program while it executes -- or what another
+program was doing at the moment it crashed.
+
+@value{GDBN} can do four main kinds of things (plus other things in support of
+these) to help you catch bugs in the act:
+
+@itemize @bullet
+@item
+Start your program, specifying anything that might affect its behavior.
+
+@item
+Make your program stop on specified conditions.
+
+@item
+Examine what has happened, when your program has stopped.
+
+@item
+Change things in your program, so you can experiment with correcting the
+effects of one bug and go on to learn about another.
+@end itemize
+
+You can use @value{GDBN} to debug programs written in C, C@t{++}, and Modula-2.
+Fortran support will be added when a GNU Fortran compiler is ready.
+
+@value{GDBN} is invoked with the shell command @code{gdb}. Once started, it reads
+commands from the terminal until you tell it to exit with the @value{GDBN}
+command @code{quit}. You can get online help from @value{GDBN} itself
+by using the command @code{help}.
+
+You can run @code{gdb} with no arguments or options; but the most
+usual way to start @value{GDBN} is with one argument or two, specifying an
+executable program as the argument:
+
+@smallexample
+gdb program
+@end smallexample
+
+You can also start with both an executable program and a core file specified:
+
+@smallexample
+gdb program core
+@end smallexample
+
+You can, instead, specify a process ID as a second argument, if you want
+to debug a running process:
+
+@smallexample
+gdb program 1234
+@end smallexample
+
+@noindent
+would attach @value{GDBN} to process @code{1234} (unless you also have a file
+named @file{1234}; @value{GDBN} does check for a core file first).
+
+Here are some of the most frequently needed @value{GDBN} commands:
+
+@c pod2man highlights the right hand side of the @item lines.
+@table @env
+@item break [@var{file}:]@var{functiop}
+Set a breakpoint at @var{function} (in @var{file}).
+
+@item run [@var{arglist}]
+Start your program (with @var{arglist}, if specified).
+
+@item bt
+Backtrace: display the program stack.
+
+@item print @var{expr}
+Display the value of an expression.
+
+@item c
+Continue running your program (after stopping, e.g. at a breakpoint).
+
+@item next
+Execute next program line (after stopping); step @emph{over} any
+function calls in the line.
+
+@item edit [@var{file}:]@var{function}
+look at the program line where it is presently stopped.
+
+@item list [@var{file}:]@var{function}
+type the text of the program in the vicinity of where it is presently stopped.
+
+@item step
+Execute next program line (after stopping); step @emph{into} any
+function calls in the line.
+
+@item help [@var{name}]
+Show information about @value{GDBN} command @var{name}, or general information
+about using @value{GDBN}.
+
+@item quit
+Exit from @value{GDBN}.
+@end table
+
+@ifset man
+For full details on @value{GDBN},
+see @cite{Using GDB: A Guide to the GNU Source-Level Debugger},

+as the @code{gdb} entry in the @code{info} program.
+@end ifset
+@c man end
+
+@c man begin OPTIONS gdb
+Any arguments other than options specify an executable
+file and core file (or process ID); that is, the first argument
+encountered with no
+associated option flag is equivalent to a @option{-se} option, and the second,
+if any, is equivalent to a @option{-c} option if it's the name of a file.
+Many options have
+both long and short forms; both are shown here. The long forms are also
+recognized if you truncate them, so long as enough of the option is
+present to be unambiguous. (If you prefer, you can flag option
+arguments with @option{+} rather than @option{-}, though we illustrate the
+more usual convention.)
+
+All the options and command line arguments you give are processed
+in sequential order. The order makes a difference when the @option{-x}
+option is used.
+
+@table @env
+@item -help
+@itemx -h
+List all options, with brief explanations.
+
+@item -symbols=@var{file}
+@itemx -s @var{file}
+Read symbol table from file @var{file}.
+
+@item -write
+Enable writing into executable and core files.
+
+@item -exec=@var{file}
+@itemx -e @var{file}
+Use file @var{file} as the executable file to execute when
+appropriate, and for examining pure data in conjunction with a core
+dump.
+
+@item -se=@var{file}
+Read symbol table from file @var{file} and use it as the executable
+file.
+
+@item -core=@var{file}
+@itemx -c @var{file}
+Use file @var{file} as a core dump to examine.
+
+@item -command=@var{file}
+@itemx -x @var{file}
+Execute @value{GDBN} commands from file @var{file}.
+
+@item -ex @var{command}
+Execute given @value{GDBN} @var{command}.
+
+@item -directory=@var{directory}
+@itemx -d @var{directory}
+Add @var{directory} to the path to search for source files.
+
+@item -nh
+Do not execute commands from @file{~/.gdbinit}.
+
+@item -nx
+@itemx -n
+Do not execute commands from any @file{.gdbinit} initialization files.
+
+@item -quiet
+@itemx -q
+``Quiet''. Do not print the introductory and copyright messages. These
+messages are also suppressed in batch mode.
+
+@item -batch
+Run in batch mode. Exit with status @code{0} after processing all the command
+files specified with @option{-x} (and @file{.gdbinit}, if not inhibited).
+Exit with nonzero status if an error occurs in executing the @value{GDBN}
+commands in the command files.
+
+Batch mode may be useful for running @value{GDBN} as a filter, for example to
+download and run a program on another computer; in order to make this
+more useful, the message
+
+@smallexample
+Program exited normally.
+@end smallexample
+
+@noindent
+(which is ordinarily issued whenever a program running under @value{GDBN} control
+terminates) is not issued when running in batch mode.
+
+@item -cd=@var{directory}
+Run @value{GDBN} using @var{directory} as its working directory,
+instead of the current directory.
+
+@item -fullname
+@itemx -f
+Emacs sets this option when it runs @value{GDBN} as a subprocess. It tells
+@value{GDBN} to output the full file name and line number in a standard,
+recognizable fashion each time a stack frame is displayed (which
+includes each time the program stops). This recognizable format looks
+like two @samp{\032} characters, followed by the file name, line number
+and character position separated by colons, and a newline. The
+Emacs-to-@value{GDBN} interface program uses the two @samp{\032}
+characters as a signal to display the source code for the frame.
+
+@item -b @var{bps}
+Set the line speed (baud rate or bits per second) of any serial
+interface used by @value{GDBN} for remote debugging.
+
+@item -tty=@var{device}
+Run using @var{device} for your program's standard input and output.

+
+gdbserver @var{tty} --attach @var{PID}
+@c man end
+@end format
+
+@c man begin DESCRIPTION gdbserver
+@command{gdbserver} is a program that allows you to run @value{GDBN} on a different machine
+than the one which is running the program being debugged.
+
+@ifclear man
+@subheading Usage (server (target) side)
+@end ifclear
+@ifset man
+Usage (server (target) side):
+@end ifset
+
+First, you need to have a copy of the program you want to debug put onto
+the target system. The program can be stripped to save space if needed, as
+@command{gdbserver} doesn't care about symbols. All symbol handling is taken care of by
+the @value{GDBN} running on the host system.
+
+To use the server, you log on to the target system, and run the @command{gdbserver}
+program. You must tell it (a) how to communicate with @value{GDBN}, (b) the name of
+your program, and (c) its arguments. The general syntax is:
+
+@smallexample
+target> gdbserver @var{comm} @var{program} [@var{args} ...]
+@end smallexample
+
+For example, using a serial port, you might say:
+
+@smallexample
+@ifset man
+@c @file would wrap it as F</dev/com1>.
+target> gdbserver /dev/com1 emacs foo.txt
+@end ifset
+@ifclear man
+target> gdbserver @file{/dev/com1} emacs foo.txt
+@end ifclear
+@end smallexample
+
+This tells @command{gdbserver} to debug emacs with an argument of foo.txt, and
+to communicate with @value{GDBN} via @file{/dev/com1}. @command{gdbserver} now
+waits patiently for the host @value{GDBN} to communicate with it.
+
+To use a TCP connection, you could say:
+
+@smallexample
+target> gdbserver host:2345 emacs foo.txt
+@end smallexample
+
+This says pretty much the same thing as the last example, except that we are
+going to communicate with the @code{host} @value{GDBN} via TCP. The @code{host:2345} argument means
+that we are expecting to see a TCP connection from @code{host} to local TCP port
+2345. (Currently, the @code{host} part is ignored.) You can choose any number you
+want for the port number as long as it does not conflict with any existing TCP
+ports on the target system. This same port number must be used in the host
+@value{GDBN}s @code{target remote} command, which will be described shortly. Note that if
+you chose a port number that conflicts with another service, @command{gdbserver} will
+print an error message and exit.
+
+On some targets, @command{gdbserver} can also attach to running programs.
+This is accomplished via the @option{--attach} argument. The syntax is:
+
+@smallexample
+target> gdbserver @var{comm} --attach @var{pid}
+@end smallexample
+
+@var{pid} is the process ID of a currently running process. It isn't
+necessary to point @command{gdbserver} at a binary for the running process.
+
+@ifclear man
+@subheading Usage (host side)
+@end ifclear
+@ifset man
+Usage (host side):
+@end ifset
+
+You need an unstripped copy of the target program on your host system, since
+@value{GDBN} needs to examine it's symbol tables and such. Start up @value{GDBN} as you normally
+would, with the target program as the first argument. (You may need to use the
+@option{--baud} option if the serial line is running at anything except 9600 baud.)
+That is @code{gdb TARGET-PROG}, or @code{gdb --baud BAUD TARGET-PROG}. After that, the only
+new command you need to know about is @code{target remote}. It's argument is either
+a device name (usually a serial device, like @file{/dev/ttyb}), or a @code{HOST:PORT}
+descriptor. For example:
+
+@smallexample
+@ifset man
+@c @file would wrap it as F</dev/ttyb>.

-You have to supply the name of the program to debug
-and the tty to communicate on; the remote @value{GDBN} will do everything else.
-Any remaining arguments will be passed to the program verbatim.
+There are three different modes for invoking @command{gdbserver}:
+
+@itemize @bullet
+
+@item
+Debug a specific program specified by its program name:
+
+@smallexample
+gdbserver @var{comm} @var{prog} [@var{args}@dots{}]
+@end smallexample
+
+The @var{comm} parameter specifies how should the server communicate
+with @value{GDBN}; it is either a device name (to use a serial line),
+a TCP port number (@code{:1234}), or @code{-} or @code{stdio} to use
+stdin/stdout of @code{gdbserver}. Specify the name of the program to
+debug in @var{prog}. Any remaining arguments will be passed to the
+program verbatim. When the program exits, @value{GDBN} will close the
+connection, and @code{gdbserver} will exit.
+
+@item
+Debug a specific program by specifying the process ID of a running
+program:
+
+@smallexample
+gdbserver --attach @var{comm} @var{pid}
+@end smallexample
+
+The @var{comm} parameter is as described above. Supply the process ID
+of a running program in @var{pid}; @value{GDBN} will do everything
+else. Like with the previous mode, when the process @var{pid} exits,
+@value{GDBN} will close the connection, and @code{gdbserver} will exit.
+
+@item
+Multi-process mode -- debug more than one program/process:
+
+@smallexample
+gdbserver --multi @var{comm}
+@end smallexample
+
+In this mode, @value{GDBN} can instruct @command{gdbserver} which
+command(s) to run. Unlike the other 2 modes, @value{GDBN} will not
+close the connection when a process being debugged exits, so you can
+debug several processes in the same session.
+@end itemize
+
+In each of the modes you may specify these options:
+
+@table @env
+
+@item --help
+List all options, with brief explanations.
+
+@item --version
+This option causes @command{gdbserver} to print its version number and exit.
+
+@item --attach
+@command{gdbserver} will attach to a running program. The syntax is:
+
+@smallexample
+target> gdbserver --attach @var{comm} @var{pid}
+@end smallexample
+
+@var{pid} is the process ID of a currently running process. It isn't
+necessary to point @command{gdbserver} at a binary for the running process.
+
+@item --multi
+To start @code{gdbserver} without supplying an initial command to run
+or process ID to attach, use this command line option.
+Then you can connect using @kbd{target extended-remote} and start
+the program you want to debug. The syntax is:
+
+@smallexample
+target> gdbserver --multi @var{comm}
+@end smallexample
+
+@item --debug
+Instruct @code{gdbserver} to display extra status information about the debugging
+process.
+This option is intended for @code{gdbserver} development and for bug reports to
+the developers.
+
+@item --remote-debug
+Instruct @code{gdbserver} to display remote protocol debug output.
+This option is intended for @code{gdbserver} development and for bug reports to
+the developers.
+
+@item --wrapper
+Specify a wrapper to launch programs
+for debugging. The option should be followed by the name of the
+wrapper, then any command-line arguments to pass to the wrapper, then
+@kbd{--} indicating the end of the wrapper arguments.
+
+@item --once
+By default, @command{gdbserver} keeps the listening TCP port open, so that
+additional connections are possible. However, if you start @code{gdbserver}
+with the @option{--once} option, it will stop listening for any further
+connection attempts after connecting to the first @value{GDBN} session.
+
+@c --disable-packet is not documented for users.
+
+@c --disable-randomization and --no-disable-randomization are superseded by
+@c QDisableRandomization.
