RDBGSRV(8) RDBGSRV(8)
NAME
rdbgsrv - remote debug server
SYNOPSIS
bind -b '#t' /dev
auxi/rdbgsrv [ -dn ] [ -sbaud ] [ -fdev ] mountpoint
DESCRIPTION
Rdbgsrv interposes itself between dev (default: /dev/eia0)
and mountpoint to convey 9P messages via the serial port to
and from a 9P server program running on a board running
native Inferno. The -f option specifies the serial device;
the default is /dev/eia0. The -s option sets the line
speed; the default is 38400 baud. The -d option selects
debugging options by a bit mask: 1, print trace of 9P mes-
sage types; 2, print actual 9P message contents.
The monitor program on the board must be started first.
Rdbgsrv writes the two byte message go, and keeps reading
the device until it sees the reply ok. It then attempts to
mount the exported name space, and copies 9P messages to and
from the device.
Once rdbgsrv is running, any device files provided by the
program will be visible at mountpoint.
