${firmware-elf}
is likely just a placeholder meant to be replaced with the actual filename when using this command.
- Note:
The purpose of this command is to load the specified firmware-elf file into GDB, enabling you to debug and analyze the code within. Once loaded, you can use various debugging features provided by GDB, such as setting breakpoints, examining variables, and stepping through the code, to understand and troubleshoot the firmware.
