When using GDB for debugging, if FW_TEXT_START is not set to 0x80000000
during compilation, the following error occurs:
Reading symbols from build/platform/generic/firmware/fw_payload.elf...
Remote debugging using localhost:1234
mips_warm_boot ()
at /home/zrmin/opensbi/platform/generic/mips/mips_warm_boot.S:11
11 j _start_warm
(gdb) b _start
Breakpoint 1 at 0x0: file /home/zrmin/opensbi/firmware/fw_base.S, line 50.
(gdb) c
Continuing.
Remote connection closed
(gdb)
With FW_TEXT_START=0x80000000, debugging works correctly:
Reading symbols from build/platform/generic/firmware/fw_payload.elf...
Remote debugging using localhost:1234
0x0000000000001000 in ?? ()
(gdb) b _start
Breakpoint 1 at 0x80000000: file /home/zrmin/opensbi/firmware/fw_base.S, line 50.
(gdb) c
Continuing.
Breakpoint 1, _start () at /home/zrmin/opensbi/firmware/fw_base.S:50
50 MOV_3R s0, a0, s1, a1, s2, a2
(gdb)
This is because QEMU loads OpenSBI at address 0x80000000. When
FW_TEXT_START does not match this address, the debug symbols are
incorrectly offset, causing GDB to fail to set breakpoints properly.
