I am trying to debug an application running on sibyte (linux 2.6.14) using gdbserver from AMD board. I am able to setup breakpoints and initial break point also gets hit, but when i do single step using "step" it prompts foll. error
ptrace: Input/Output Error
and board gets hang. is this supported or am doing some thing wrong ? can you please give some pointers from here ? I am using gdb-6.4 version on host (AMD) and target ( sibyte )
That looks like you may have a problem with the connection to your target, so gdb can't really talk to the gdb server.

But i am able to setup initial connection, and also first breakpoint gets hit. Is it like gdbserver (for mips) doesnt support single step command? or is it like i have not configured gdb properly ? I have downloaded fresh gdb-6.4 src, and ran "configure" scripts on my target (sibyte). Am i missing anything ?

A'Jones.

How did you configure your host gdb?
Use mips-linux or mips64-linux and it will not attempt to single step.
