Folks,

I got over the installation of Xcode, and building xnu code on 10.9 and 10.10 . This is good enough for now. They are on Fusion. Now I’m trying to hook up remote debugging using gdb. And here are some of the problems, I’m seeing -

1) On the target VM ( it is based on 10.9), after I get the respective kernel debug kit, and configuration I see it boots up with debug mode, and wait for remote connection….

For this I need a way ( perhaps some key combination ) to boot it up normally w/o debug configuration . Is there something that can do? Or how can I break out of the listen mode of the vm and let it boot thru.

2) I installed using port install gdb. This is ggdb. Here is some info about the package -

GDB 7.7.1 was configured as x86-64-apple-darwin13.4.0. But it does not have remote-kdp.

So “target remote-kdp” does not work. Help of course does not have that option.

Anybody knows, why it is gone ?

Thanks
