Subject: [XTENSA] [KGDB] kgdbts: ERROR PUT: end of test buffer on 'bad_read_test'
line 0 expected S0* got $T05thread:0000000000000001;#a7
I'm getting a problem with the kgdb Test Suite on the third test:
kgdbts:RUN plant and detach test
kgdbts:RUN sw breakpoint test
kgdbts:RUN bad memory access test
kgdbts: ERROR PUT: end of test buffer on 'bad_read_test' line 0 expected S0* got $T05thread:0000000000000001;#a7

WARNING: at /export/src/xtensa-next/drivers/misc/kgdbts.c:723 run_simple_test+0x2a1/0x2cc()
I'm using an Illegal Instruction (ILL) instead of the normal BREAK instruction for now so I can use
the std JTAG based gdb to debug the stub. The test appears to be just expecting the '#a7' but the stub has
sent the Trap Information from gdb_serial_stub() up in frame #5:
1217 static int gdb_serial_stub(struct kgdb_state *ks)
1218 {
1219 int error = 0;
1220 int tmp;
1221
1222 /* Clear the out buffer. */
1223 memset(remcom_out_buffer, 0, sizeof(remcom_out_buffer));
1224
1225 if (kgdb_connected) {
1226 unsigned char thref[8];
1227 char *ptr;
1228
1229 /* Reply to host that an exception has occurred */
1230 ptr = remcom_out_buffer;
1231 *ptr++ = 'T';
1232 ptr = pack_hex_byte(ptr, ks->signo);
1233 ptr += strlen(strcpy(ptr, "thread:"));
1234 int_to_threadref(thref, shadow_pid(current->pid));
1235 ptr = pack_threadid(ptr, thref);
1236 *ptr++ = ';';

Backtrace stopped: previous frame inner to this frame (corrupt stack?)
(gdb)
I've tried a few changes in the trap handler but so far the problem persist.
The test suite suite seems like a nice idea. Did I miss an explanation somewhere
that goes into the details of the code that implements this? Chapter 5 of the Internals
doc just says to look at the code; which I've been doing.
I thought it might be worthwhile to get your thoughts now that I've been messing with it a while.
