This commit splits the readme file into 2 files - the readme which contains instructions on how to download our latest release, and on how to use our build scripts in order to quickly build gdb statically. The second file is a compilation guide that contains explanations on how to manually compile gdb statically.

# Repository of static gdb and gdbserver
|
|
|
|
## **The statically compiled gdb / gdbserver binaries are avaliable to download under github releases!**
|
|
|

## For manual gdb/gdbserver compilation instructions, have a look at the compilation.md file

|
## Compiling gdb using docker
|
|
|
|
This repository contains a dockerfile and build scripts to compile gdb and gdbserver statically for multiple architectures.
|
|
Currently, the supported architectures are:
|
|
- x86_64
|
|
- arm
|
|
- aarch64
|
|
- powerpc (32bit)
|
|
You can easily expand it to support more architectures by adding the appropriate cross compilers to the dockerfile, and other build scripts.
|
|
|
|
NOTE: You don't need to interact with the dockerfile directly, as the Makefile will take care of everything for you.
|
|
|
|
### Building for a specific architecture
|
|
|
|
To build for a specific architecture, you can use the following command:
|
|
```bash
|
|
make build-<ARCH>
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
For example, to build for arm:
|
|
```bash
|
|
make build-arm
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
The resulting binaries will be placed under the `build/artifacts/` directory.
|
|
Each architecture will have its own directory under `build/artifacts/`. For example, the arm architecture will have the following directory structure:
|
|
```
|
|
build/
|
|
artifacts/
|
|
arm/
|
|
...
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
### Building for all architectures
|
|
|
|
To build for all architectures, you can use the following command:
|
|
```bash
|
|
make build
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
### Cleaning the build
|
|
|
|
To clean the build, you can use the following command:
|
|
```bash
|
|
make clean
|
|
```
