This article provides information on some basic GDB commands and explains how to use them.

You can also refer to the "Debugging with GDB" web page ([1] from gnu.org).

target remote host:port command

This command establishes a TCP connection between the host and a remote target board. The host can be either a host name or a numeric IP address; the port must be a decimal number: 

(gdb) target extended-remote <IP_Addr_of_Board>:<port>

info target / info files commands

These two commands are synonymous. They both display the current target information, including the names of the executable and core dump files currently in use by the GDB, and the files from which the symbols were loaded.

The command help target lists all the possible targets rather than the current ones. 

(gdb) info target

 Symbols from "target:/usr/local/bin/hello_world_example".
 Remote serial target in gdb-specific protocol:
 Debugging a target over a serial line.
	While running this, the GDB does not access memory from...
 Local exec file:
	`target:/usr/local/bin/hello_world_example', file type elf32-littlearm.

---Type <return> to continue, or q <return> to quit---

Program running commands

(gdb) run - (abbreviation r) Runs the program until a breakpoint is found or an error occurs

(gdb) continue - (abbreviation c) Continues running the program until the next breakpoint or error

(gdb) finish - Runs until the current function is finished

(gdb) step - (abbreviation s) Executes the next program line

(gdb) step N - (abbreviation s N) Executes the next N lines of the program

(gdb) stepi - (abbreviation si) Executes one machine instruction, then stops and returns to the debugger

(gdb) next - (abbreviation n) Similar to s, except that it does not step into functions

(gdb) nexti - (abbreviation ni) Executes one machine instruction. If it is a function call, the command proceeds until the function returns.

(gdb) until - (abbreviation u) Goes up a level in the stack. This command is used to avoid single stepping through a loop more than once

(gdb) until N - (abbreviation u N) Runs the program until you get N lines in front of the current line

Source code commands

(gdb) list - (abbreviation l) Lists listsize more lines after or around the previously listed lines

(gdb) list <linenum> - (abbreviation l <linenum>) Lists listsize lines around a given line in the current file

(gdb) list <filename>:<linenum> - (abbreviation l <filename>:<linenum>) Lists listsize lines around a given line in a given file

(gdb) list <function> - (abbreviation l <function>) Lists listsize lines around the beginning of a given function
  • To see the current listsize value (default value is 10)
(gdb) show listsize
Number of source lines gdb will list by default is 10.
  • To update the listsize 
(gdb) set listsize <count>

Breakpoint commands

The break command (abbreviation b) allows adding breakpoints in the program. Current breakpoints can also be listed or deleted.

break (abbreviation b)

The command sets a software breakpoint at a specified location, which can be a function name, a line number, or an instruction address. 

(gdb) b main - Puts a breakpoint at the beginning of the program

(gdb) b - Puts a breakpoint at the current line

(gdb) b <n> - Puts a breakpoint at line n

(gdb) b +<n> - Puts a breakpoint n lines forward from the current line
(gdb) b -<n> - Puts a breakpoint n lines backward from the current line

(gdb) b <fn> - Puts a breakpoint at the beginning of the fn function

(gdb) b <filename>:<linenum> - Puts a breakpoint at a given line number in a given file defined by its name

(gdb) b <filename>:<function> - Puts a breakpoint at the entry to a given function in a file defined by its name

(gdb) b *<address> - Puts a breakpoint at <address> address

For example, when running the program to the breakpoint: 

(gdb) b 16
(gdb) c
Breakpoint 3, main (argc=1, argv=0xbefffc74) at hello_world_example.c:16
16		printf("\nUser space example: hello world from STMicroelectronics\n");

tbreak (abbreviation tb)

Sets a breakpoint enabled only for one stop. Argument parameters are the same as for the break command.

hbreak (abbreviation hb)

Sets a hardware-assisted breakpoint. Argument parameters are the same as for the break command.

thbreak (abbreviation thb)

Sets a hardware-assisted breakpoint enabled only for one stop. Argument parameters are the same as for the break command.

list breakpoints

(gdb) info break - (abbreviation i b)
 Num     Type           Disp Enb Address    What
 1       breakpoint     keep y   0x000103d0 in main at hello_world_example.c:16

enable/disable breakpoints 

(gdb) enable <n> - Enables breakpoint number n. If n is not present, all breakpoints are enabled

(gdb) disable <n> - Disables breakpoint number n. If n is not present, all breakpoints are disabled

delete breakpoints (abbreviation d) 

(gdb) delete <n> - Deletes breakpoint number n. If n not present, all breakpoints are deleted

Backtrace command

The backtrace command (abbreviation bt) prints a backtrace of the entire stack: one line per frame for all frames in the stack.
You can stop the backtrace at any time by typing the system interrupt character, normally Ctrl+c. 

(gdb) bt

For example: 

(gdb) bt
#0  0xbf101c48 in delta_perf_end ()
#1  0xbf100d04 in delta_vb2_au_queue () at sources/linux-sti/drivers/media/platform/delta/delta-v4l2.c:1016
#2  0xc04480d0 in __enqueue_in_driver ()
#3  0xc044a300 in vb2_qbuf ()
#4  0xbf0feea4 in delta_qbuf () at sources/linux-sti/drivers/media/platform/delta/delta-v4l2.c:668
#5  0xc043f150 in v4l_qbuf ()
#6  0xc043e914 in __video_do_ioctl ()
#7  0xc043e444 in video_usercopy ()
#8  0xc043abc0 in v4l2_ioctl () at sources/linux-sti/drivers/media/v4l2-core/v4l2-dev.c:351
#9  0xc00ea508 in do_vfs_ioctl ()
#10 0xc00ea708 in sys_ioctl ()
warning: Couldn't find the process executable path.
#11 ret_fast_syscall () at sources/linux-sti/arch/arm/kernel/entry-common.S:34
#12 0xb6cc1780 in ?? ()
#13 0xb39b6318 in ?? ()
#14 0xb39b6318 in ?? ()
Backtrace stopped: previous frame identical to this frame (corrupt stack?)

info threads command

This command displays a summary of all the threads currently in your program.

The GDB displays for each thread, in this order:
1. The thread number assigned by the GDB
2. The target system thread identifier (systag)
3. The current stack frame summary for this thread

(gdb) info threads - (abbreviation i threads)

For example: 

(gdb) i threads

CPU register commands

(gdb) info registers - (abbreviation i r) Prints the names and values of all registers except floating-point and vector registers (in the selected stack frame)

(gdb) info all-registers - (abbreviation i all-registers) Prints the names and values of all registers, including floating-point and vector registers (in the selected stack frame)

(gdb) info registers <regname> - (abbreviation i r <regname>) Prints the value of the register specified by regname

For example: 

(gdb) info registers 
r0             0xc1917a58	3247536728
r1             0x0	0

Variable monitoring commands

  • The print command (abbreviation p) prints the value of a given variable in a format appropriate to its data type. You can choose various formats specified by /f, where f* is a letter defining the format:
*x: hexadecimal, d: signed decimal, u: unsigned decimal, a: address, c: character, f:float, s: string
(gdb) print [/f] <variable>

For example: 

(gdb) print caps
$21 = (GstCaps *) 0xb4a23bb8
  • The display command adds a variable to the list of variables automatically displayed so that the GDB prints its value each time your program stops
(gdb) display <variable>

<securetransclude src="ProtectedTemplate:ReviewsComments" params="-- Jean-philippe Romain (talk) 15:16, 10 July 2020 (CEST)<br />Possibility to get structure content by adding * before the variable, to be added"></securetransclude>{{#set:Has reviews comments=true}}

Memory analyzing commands

  • The command below can be used to analyze the memory in various formats, independently of your program data types:
(gdb) x[/nfu] <addr>

Where:

  • addr: first address displayed
  • n, f, and u: optional parameters that specify the memory size to display and how to format it
n: repeat count in decimal format (default value is 1). It specifies the memory size to display (counting by units u).
f: display format. The formats are the same as for the print command (‘x’, ‘d’, ‘u’, ‘o’, ‘t’, ‘a’, ‘c’, ‘f’, ‘s’), plus ‘i’ (for machine instructions). Default format is ‘x’ (hexadecimal). The default format changes each time either x or print is used.
u: unit size, which can be
b::Bytes.
h::Half-words (two bytes).
w::Words (four bytes). This is the initial default value.
g::Giant words (eight bytes).

For example:

  • To display a string:
(gdb) x/s 0xf017826c
  • To display a memory area
100 bytes in hexadecimal:
(gdb) x/100xb 0xf017826c

100 bytes in decimal
(gdb) x/100db 0xf017826c

100 words in hexadecimal
(gdb) x/100xw 0xf017826c
  • To avoid disabling the MMU, read a physical memory area by using the monitor command (Note: this is valid only when using the OpenOCD debugger interface, so not for user space application debug, see Sending commands to the debugger paragraph)
# For example, read 20 words (32 bits) at address 0x40000400

Bytes (8-bit data) can be read by using mdb, and half-words (16-bit data) by using mdh.

Variable setting command

(gdb) set var <variable_name>=<new value>

Debugging running process commands

The attach command can be used to debug an already running process.

Note: Use either the ps utility or the ‘jobs -l’ shell command find out the process-id of a Unix process. 

(gdb) attach <process-id>

When the attached process debbugging is complete, you can use the detach command to release it from GDB control: 

(gdb) detach

Disassemble command

Disassembles a specified section of memory.

(gdb) disassemble - (abbreviation disas) Disassemble the function surrounding the pc of the selected frame.

(gdb) disassemble <Function> - (abbreviation disas <Function>) Disassemble the given entire function

(gdb) disassemble <Address> - (abbreviation disas <Address>) Disassemble the address inside a function

(gdb) disassemble <Start>,<End> - (abbreviation disas <Start>,<End>) Disassemble the specified address range 

(gdb) disassemble <Function>,+<Length> - (abbreviation disas <Function>,+<Length>) Disassemble from the start address of the function with the amount of bytes lenght

(gdb) disassemble <Address>,+<Length> - (abbreviation disas <Function>,+<Length>) Disassemble from the given start address in a function with the amount of bytes lenght

(gdb) disassemble /m [...] - (abbreviation disas /m [...]) When this option is specified, the disassemble command shows the source lines that correspond to the disassembled instructions

(gdb) disassemble /r [...] - (abbreviation disas /r [...]) When this option is specified, the disassemble command shows the raw byte values of all disassembled instructions

Quit (or q) command 

(gdb) quit - (abbreviation q) Quits gdb

Sending commands to the debugger

The monitor command allows sending arbitrary commands directly to the remote monitor as OpenOCD debugger.

This command does not work when debugging user space applications that use gdbsever interface instead of OpenOCD debugger path.

In that case, since the GDB does not care about the commands it sends, the monitor command allows to extend the GDB. You can add new commands that only the external monitor understands and implements. 

(gdb) monitor <cmd>

To get the list of cmd commands: 

(gdb) monitor help
