Use Of Mount - Accessing Windows Files From Linux

This is pretty good use of SMB protocol aka CIFS.
Windows system are default use SMB protocol to share files over network and with other systems.
In linux one has to run SMB server, one SMB server is running on linux system, one can access the windows file from Linux system using mount.

Use

$mount -t cifs //192.168.2.102/bhagwat/firmware /mnt/prolent -o user=bhagwat

Usages:
192.168.2.102 is windows machine IP address /bhagwat/firmware is the folder name on windows machine.
/mnt/prolent is the local mount point in linux system. If local mount point is not created, create it using,

$mkdir -p /mnt/prolent

-p option for creating dir /mnt/ if it is not there.

Then provide the usrename on for windows system ie user=bhagwat. press enter, this will ask for the password to enter to windows system. Enter the password and you are ready to use windows files or filesystem from linux.
go to $ cd /mnt/prolent you could see windows files on linux machine.

Remote debugging for ARM target board

Remote debugging for ARM target board With GDB one can both trace and modify code and data flow, and otherwise analyze the behavior of code, without explicitly changing any of it. Rather than run a full-blown instance of GDB on the target platform, you can use GDBserver , a program that lets you run GDB on a different machine than the one on which your program is running. The advantage of using GDBserver is that it needs just a fraction of the target resources that GDB consumes, because it implements only the low-level functionality of the debugger -- namely setting breakpoints and accessing the target processor registers and read/write application memory. GDBserver takes control of the application being debugged, and then waits for instructions from a remote instance of GDB running on a development workstation. Remote target needs to have debugging stub (gdbserver), The gdbserver is also referred to as the 'stub' and must be cross-compiled for that targ...
