;; Pedro Franco de Carvalho, RH BZ 1187581
|
|
|
|
Zero-initialize linux note sections
|
|
|
|
This patches changes linux-tdep.c so that the buffer used to write
|
|
note sections when generating a core file is zero-initialized. This
|
|
way, bytes that are not collected won't contain random
|
|
data (e.g. padding bytes).
|
|
|
|
gdb/ChangeLog:
|
|
2018-10-26 Pedro Franco de Carvalho <pedromfc@linux.ibm.com>
|
|
|
|
* linux-tdep.c (linux_collect_regset_section_cb): Use
|
|
std::vector<gdb_byte> instead of char * and malloc for buf.
|
|
Remove xfree.
