Process record now works correctly with hardware watchpoints.
Multiple bug fixes have been made to the mips-irix port, making it
much more reliable. In particular:
- Debugging threaded applications is now possible again. Previously,
GDB would hang while starting the program, or while waiting for
the program to stop at a breakpoint.
- Attaching to a running process no longer hangs.
- An error occurring while loading a core file has been fixed.
- Changing the value of the PC register now works again. This fixes
problems observed when using the "jump" command, or when calling
a function from GDB, or even when assigning a new value to $pc.
- With the "finish" and "return" commands, the return value for functions
returning a small array is now correctly printed.
- It is now possible to break on shared library code which gets executed
during a shared library init phase (code executed while executing
their .init section). Previously, the breakpoint would have no effect.
- GDB is now able to backtrace through the signal handler for
non-threaded programs.
