gdb/gdb-6.6-multifork-debugreg.patch
Jan Kratochvil d50521fae0 - Backport the gcc-4.3 compatibility -Werror fixes. 
- Fix documentation on hardware watchpoints wrt multiple threads.
- Rename the patch file for BZ 235197 from its former name 234468.
- Fix the vendora testcase `attach-32.exp' affecting the other tests
    results.
- Support DW_TAG_interface_type the same way as DW_TAG_class_type (BZ
    426600).

Raw Blame History

ia64-linux-nat.c patch is missing here, port it either from RHEL-5 for 6.7.1 or
from the commented-out HEAD patch below.
s390x in RHEL-5 requires a patch but it is no longer required for
gdb-6.7.1-6.fc9 - the patch was not ported.
2007-10-14 Jan Kratochvil <jan.kratochvil@redhat.com>
Handle multiple different PIDs for the DR registers.
* i386-nat.c: Include "inferior.h".
(struct dr_mirror_status, dr_mirror_active, dr_mirror_fetch): New.
(dr_mirror, dr_status_mirror, dr_control_mirror, dr_ref_count):
Redefined using DR_MIRROR_ACTIVE.
(i386_cleanup_dregs): Clear the DR_MIRROR_ACTIVE content instead.
(i386_show_dr, i386_insert_aligned_watchpoint)
(i386_remove_aligned_watchpoint, i386_stopped_data_address)
(i386_stopped_by_hwbp): Call DR_MIRROR_FETCH.
* Makefile.in (i386-nat.o): Update dependencies.
2007-12-30 Jan Kratochvil <jan.kratochvil@redhat.com>
* gdb.base/watchpoint-fork.exp, gdb.base/watchpoint-fork.c: New files.
[ Backported for GDB-6.6 (only removed the new file inclusion). ]
2007-09-16 Daniel Jacobowitz <dan@codesourcery.com>
Jeff Johnston <jjohnstn@redhat.com>
* gdb.texinfo (Setting Watchpoints): Adjust warning text about
multi-threaded watchpoints.
2007-12-15 Jan Kratochvil <jan.kratochvil@redhat.com>
* gdb.texinfo (Setting Watchpoints): New paragraph on the software
watchpoints safety wrt `set scheduler-locking'.
