Joel Brobecker reported a bug which was happening because of the
"Improved linker-debugger interface", by Gary Benson, when tested on
IA-64 with rhES5. The message is:
<http://sourceware.org/ml/gdb-patches/2013-06/msg00745.html>
The failure happened because GDB was trying to parse the probes'
operands using only the generic parser (implemented on stap-probe.c),
because the arch-specific parser was not implemented. Thus, I am
committing the following changes which solve the bug.
2013-06-29 Sergio Durigan Junior <sergiodj@redhat.com>
* ia64-linux-tdep.c: Include <ctype.h>.
(ia64_linux_stap_is_single_operand): New function.
(ia64_linux_init_abi): Initialize SystemTap related attributes.
This reverts part of the earlier version.in change. It moves
version.in back to the gdb directory. This works around the CVS bug
we've found.
gdb
* Makefile.in (version.c): Use version.in, not
common/version.in.
* common/create-version.sh: Likewise.
* common/version.in: Move...
* version.in: ...here.
gdb/doc
* Makefile.in (version.subst): Use version.in, not
common/version.in.
* gdbint.texinfo (Versions and Branches, Releasing GDB):
Likewise.
gdb/gdbserver
* Makefile.in (version.c): Use version.in, not
common/version.in.
sim/common
* Make-common.in (version.c): Use version.in, not
common/version.in.
* create-version.sh: Likewise.
sim/ppc:
* Make-common.in (version.c): Use version.in, not
common/version.in.
Declare it close to other related declarations in utils.h, and remove
local extern declaration hack.

2013-06-28 Pedro Alves <palves@redhat.com>
* infrun.c (set_observer_mode): Don't declare pagination_enabled
here.
* utils.h (pagination_enabled): Declare.
The "non_stop_1" global is out of place, mixed with the observer bits.
This moves all the non-stop user-interface-related bits together.

2013-06-28 Pedro Alves <palves@redhat.com>
* infrun.c (non_stop, non_stop_1, set_non_stop, show_non_stop):
Move higher up in file.

The fix is to fetch the value before comparing the contents. The
comment additions to value.h explain why it can't be
value_available_contents_eq itself that fetches the contents.
Tested on x86_64 Fedora 17.

When directly invoking gdb/gdbserver/configure && make, the build will
fail because the $(host_alias) is empty and thus create-version.sh does
not get enough parameters.

This whole comment is now a bit out of place. I looked into moving it
to handle_inferior_event, close to where in_solib_dynsym_resolve_code
is used, but then there are 3 such places. I then looked at
fragmenting it, pushing bits closer to the definitions of
in_solib_dynsym_resolve_code and gdbarch_skip_solib_resolver, but then
we'd lose the main advantage which is the overview. In the end, I
realized this can fit nicely as internals manual material.
This could possibly be a subsection of a new "run control", or "source
stepping" or "stepping" or some such a bit more general section, but
we can do that when we have more related content... Even the "single
stepping" section is presently empty...

This updates the comments on the step-over-resolver mechanism a bit,

to mention the in_dynsym_resolve_code hook of the target_so_ops
vector; and to American English spelling (signalling->signaling).
