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:

make build-<ARCH>

For example, to build for arm:

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:

make build

Cleaning the build

To clean the build, you can use the following command:

make clean
