An update that has 13 recommended fixes and contains four
features can now be installed.
Description:
This update for gdb fixes the following issues:
- Don't 'BuildRequire' binutils-gold for SLE-12/s390.
- Implements jsc#SLE-21561.
- Fix gdb chrashes while debugging 'clang-cpp'. (bsc#1192285)
- Disable big endian powerpc.
- Maintenance scripts:
* Fix patch filtering in clean.sh.
* Add KFAIL in qa.sh.
- Added maintenance script:
* qa.sh
- Drop 32bit packages for s390x.
- Fix SLE-15 s390x: unresolvable, nothing provides
glibc-devel-static-32bit.
- Disable test-case gdb.base/break-interp.exp for SLE-11. It causes a
"glibc detected *** expect: double free or corruption (out)" in expect
and a subsequent runtest abort. This might be the cause
of the package build failure due to "Job seems to be stuck here, killed.
(after 8hrs of inactivity)"
- Rebase to 11.1 release (as in fedora 35 @ 9cd9368):
* GDB now supports general memory tagging functionality if the
underlying architecture supports the proper primitives and hooks.
Currently this is enabled only for AArch64 MTE.
* GDB will now look for the .gdbinit file in a config directory before
looking for ~/.gdbinit. The file is searched for in the following
locations: $XDG_CONFIG_HOME/gdb/gdbinit, $HOME/.config/gdb/gdbinit,
$HOME/.gdbinit.
* GDB will now load and process commands from ~/.config/gdb/gdbearlyinit
or ~/.gdbearlyinit if these files are present. These files are
processed earlier than any of the other initialization files and can
affect parts of GDB's startup that previously had already been
completed before the initialization files were read, for example
styling of the initial GDB greeting.
* GDB now has two new options "--early-init-command" and
"--early-init-eval-command" with corresponding short options "-eix"
and "-eiex" that allow options (that would normally appear in a
gdbearlyinit file) to be passed on the command line.
* set startup-quietly on|off show startup-quietly When 'on', this causes
GDB to act as if "-silent" were passed
on the command line. This command needs to be added to an early
initialization file (e.g. ~/.config/gdb/gdbearlyinit) in order to
affect GDB.
* For RISC-V targets, the target feature "org.gnu.gdb.riscv.vector" is
now understood by GDB, and can be used to describe the vector
registers of a target.
* TUI windows now support mouse actions. The mouse wheel scrolls the
appropriate window.
* Key combinations that do not have a specific action on the focused
window are passed to GDB. For example, you now can use
Ctrl-Left/Ctrl-Right to move between words in the command window
regardless of which window is in focus. Previously you would need to
focus on the command window for such key combinations to work.
* set python ignore-environment on|off show python ignore-environment
When 'on', this causes GDB's builtin Python to ignore any environment
variables that would otherwise affect how Python behaves. This
command needs to be added to an early initialization file (e.g.
~/.config/gdb/gdbearlyinit) in
order to affect GDB.
* set python dont-write-bytecode auto|on|off show python
dont-write-bytecode When 'on', this causes GDB's builtin Python to not
write any byte-code (.pyc files) to disk. This command needs to be
added to an early initialization file (e.g.
~/.config/gdb/gdbearlyinit) in order to affect GDB. When 'off'
byte-code will always be written. When set to 'auto' (the default)
Python will check the PYTHONDONTWRITEBYTECODE environment variable.
* break [PROBE_MODIFIER] [LOCATION] [thread THREADNUM]
[-force-condition] [if CONDITION] This command would previously refuse
setting a breakpoint if the CONDITION expression is invalid at a
location. It now accepts and defines the breakpoint if there is at
least one location at which the CONDITION is valid. The locations for
which the CONDITION is invalid, are automatically disabled. If
CONDITION is invalid at all of the locations, setting the breakpoint
is still rejected. However, the '-force-condition' flag can be used
in this case for forcing GDB to define the breakpoint, making all the
current locations automatically disabled. This may be useful if the
user knows the condition will become meaningful at a future location,
e.g. due to a shared library load.
