I spotted something that looks wrong in the doc of gdbarch_displaced_step_copy_insn. It says that if the function returns NULL, it means that it has emulated the behavior of the instruction and written the result to REGS. However, it says below that the function may return NULL to indicate that the instruction can't be single-stepped out-of-line, in which case the core steps the instruction in-line. The two are contradictory. The right one is the latter, if the function returns NULL, the core falls back to in-line stepping. I checked all the implementations of this function and they all agree with this. gdb/ChangeLog: * gdbarch.sh (displaced_step_copy_insn): Update doc. * gdbarch.h: Re-generate.

README for GNU development tools This directory contains various GNU compilers, assemblers, linkers, debuggers, etc., plus their support routines, definitions, and documentation. If you are receiving this as part of a GDB release, see the file gdb/README. If with a binutils release, see binutils/README; if with a libg++ release, see libg++/README, etc. That'll give you info about this package -- supported targets, how to use it, how to report bugs, etc. It is now possible to automatically configure and build a variety of tools with one command. To build all of the tools contained herein, run the ``configure'' script here, e.g.: ./configure make To install them (by default in /usr/local/bin, /usr/local/lib, etc), then do: make install (If the configure script can't determine your type of computer, give it the name as an argument, for instance ``./configure sun4''. You can use the script ``config.sub'' to test whether a name is recognized; if it is, config.sub translates it to a triplet specifying CPU, vendor, and OS.) If you have more than one compiler on your system, it is often best to explicitly set CC in the environment before running configure, and to also set CC when running make. For example (assuming sh/bash/ksh): CC=gcc ./configure make A similar example using csh: setenv CC gcc ./configure make Much of the code and documentation enclosed is copyright by the Free Software Foundation, Inc. See the file COPYING or COPYING.LIB in the various directories, for a description of the GNU General Public License terms under which you can copy the files. REPORTING BUGS: Again, see gdb/README, binutils/README, etc., for info on where and how to report problems.
