Unsolved Remote debugging fails with a cryptic message
-
Hi,
I'm familiar with remote debugging and using it for a long time. I've tried to install a virtual machine for conducting some test in it. Unfortunately the debugging fails at the beginning.
gdb and gdb-server are already installed on the target, test on the Device page completes successfully (so, gdb-server, rsync, ssh everything works as expected).
Here's the console output:
12:16:30: Checking available ports... 12:16:30: Found 51 free ports. 12:16:30: Starting gdbserver --multi :10000... 12:16:30: Debugging /opt/******/*******/****** ... Listening on port 10000 Remote debugging from host ::ffff:192.168.1.27, port 38884 Process /opt/******/*******/****** created; pid = 1654 while parsing target description (at line 68): Vector "v8bf16" references undefined type "bfloat16" Could not load XML target description; ignoring Killing process(es): 1654 12:16:31: Application finished with exit code 0. 12:16:31: Debugging of /opt/******/*******/****** has finished with exit code 0.
Target OS is Debian Bullseye (11) amd64 and I'm using Ubuntu 20.04 amd64 as host OS. Qt version is 5.15.2
I even can't find the XML file which is mentioned by the error message. I'm guessing a Clang related hidden mumbo jumbo is going on in the background, but don't know how to solve it.
Regards,

@MuratUrsavas I know it is a very old post, but I’m currently facing the same problem. Did you found a solution?

Bumping this report to the top. Was there any resolution as to the cause of the error. I have a new application which now fails to remote debug using the same procedure we have used for years. I get this very same message:
11:02:03: Debugging /home/michael_uman/gitroot/build-udevwrapper-Desktop_Qt_5_15_2_GCC_64bit-Debug/udevwrapper ... while parsing target description (at line 71): Vector "v8bf16" references undefined type "bfloat16" Could not load XML target description; ignoring Unable to find dynamic linker breakpoint function. GDB will be unable to debug shared library initializers and track explicitly loaded dynamic code.
Any assistance would be greatly appreciated.
Thank you,
