Android下使用GDB调试无符号ELF文件

以下以adb shell下通过gdb工具调试/system/bin/ping举例：

附注：

ELF可执行文件入口，__libc_init第3个参数即为main：

bionic\libc\arch-arm\bionic\crtbegin.c

__LIBC_HIDDEN__ void _start() {
......
  void* raw_args = (void*) ((uintptr_t) __builtin_frame_address(0) + sizeof(void*));
  __libc_init(raw_args, NULL, &main, &array);
}

gdb采用的是Android toolchain中的gdb7.3.1-gg2源码编译生成，编译工具使用codesourcery的arm-none-linux-gnueabi。
