GDB Documentation for ECE391 Qemu: GDB versioned @ gdb_6_5-20060621-release

Original Piazza Post Text from FA21

Official GDB documentation with the matching GDB version of the `devel` machines

The GDB version available on the devel qemu machines is GDB version

6.5.15.fc6rh Red Hat Linux gdb configured as i386-redhat-linux-gnu
. Unfortunately, this is such an old version that there is no online documentation available anymore (as far as I could tell).

Personally, I'm less motivated to RTDC if I know I have the wrong version of the docs. ("Does X still work? Why is flag Y behaving weirdly? None of this behavior was documented!!!")

So, here is the freshly-generated official GDB documentation for version

gdb_6_5-20060621-release
(it was the closest version I could find), generated from the official sources. Link below:

The web documentation is available here: see bottom of webpage

The PDF version is available here: see bottom of webpage

I hope this website saves some of you from headaches caused by reading differently-versioned documentation!
