I’ve started using VisualGDB to build and debug applications on a Xilinx Zynq-7000 device and seems to have some issue debugging. I’ve build the linux kernel for the device with gdb/etc to build directly on the device (SLOW!!) since I cannot seem to get VisualGDB using cross-compile on an interm machine to build (missing headers and various issues) and deploy and debug (gdbserver is there though). I imagine there is any number of things I may be missing there, so just to start out I was trying the build/debug on the device.
Everything seems correct until debugging:(gdb begin) --- GDB Session --- VisualGDB is licensed to Dwight Goetz at Troll Systems Corporation =thread-group-added,id="i1" ~"GNU gdb (GDB) 8.2\n" ~"Copyright (C) 2018 Free Software Foundation, Inc.\n" ~"License GPLv3+: GNU GPL version 3 or later <http://gnu.org/licenses/gpl.html>\nThis is free software: you are free to change and redistribute it.\nThere is NO WARRANTY, to the extent permitted by law."

I might not care about this if I could get the machine in the middle mode to work, but for rapid start this would be nice to get working.
I forgot to mention I also started a new “hello world” project from scratch following the tutorial and it still failed to debug, though the app would run as expected on the device. I assume this rules out issues in regards to our code/lib/specific project.
Hi,
Strange. Just to double-check, are you able to run the program under gdb manually? I.e.:
gdb /mnt/TrollSystems/_Applications/ConTroll21_S6K2/ConTroll21_S6K2_Lin.exe b main run
If yes, does it change if you run it as “gdb –interpreter mi <path”> instead of just “gdb <path”> and use the “-exec-run” command instead of “run”?
Yes, runs (I need the –args to pass some config to the app)

The easiest way to work around it would be to use gdbserver on the target (you can configure it by selecting the “gdb stub” mode in the VisualGDB Project Properties -> Debug Settings). This will eliminate the need to create a virtual terminal and should work around the problem.
Ok, so application running and in debug on the target, figuring out the arguments took a minute.
But follow on question would be why it insists on downloading the source files from the device when they are local on the windows machine? When I insert a breakpoint it jumps to autoloadedsources path files.
Good to know it works. Most likely, the files are downloaded because the paths reported by gdb don’t match the paths expected by VisualGDB. This would happen if the target had symbolic links in some directories.
You can troubleshoot it by checking the GDB Session window for the path reported by GDB and then setting a mapping via VisualGDB Project Properties -> Path Mapping.
Do I have to set paths for each file (we have many) or is there a way to enter a generic substitution? I think here because /tmp -> /var/volatile/tmp is as you explained is the issue.
Given file=”../ConTrollGUI/ConTrollApp.cpp”,fullname=”/var/volatile/tmp/VisualGDB/c/TrollSource/DEV3/#SRC/ConTrollDEV/ConTrollGUI/ConTrollApp.cpp”
For this file if I add a specific mapping:
“/var/volatile/tmp/VisualGDB/c/TrollSource/DEV3/#SRC/ConTrollDEV/ConTrollGUI/ConTrollApp.cpp -> c:\TrollSource\DEV3\#SRC\ConTrollGUI\ConTrollApp.cpp” in Path Mappings it works as expected, adding that for each file would be cumbersome and error prone. Is there a way to map “/var/volatile/tmp/VisualGDB/c/TrollSource/DEV3/#SRC/ConTrollDEV/* -> c:\TrollSource\DEV3\#SRC\*” ?
I suppose I could also change the download location on the device?
Thanks
Solved – Turns out changing the remote folder from ‘/tmp’ to ‘/var/volatile/tmp’ makes everyone happy
