Hi, I see the following two fails in gdb.base/savedregs.exp on aarch64-linux, info frame 2^M Stack frame at 0x7ffffffa60:^M pc = 0x40085c in thrower (/home/yao/SourceCode/gnu/gdb/git/gdb/testsuite/gdb.base/savedregs.c:49); saved pc = 0x400898^M called by frame at 0x7ffffffa70, caller of frame at 0x7fffffe800^M source language c.^M Arglist at 0x7ffffffa60, args: ^M Locals at 0x7ffffffa60, Previous frame's sp is 0x7ffffffa60^M (gdb) FAIL: gdb.base/savedregs.exp: Get thrower info frame info frame 2^M Stack frame at 0x7fffffe800:^M pc = 0x400840 in catcher (/home/yao/SourceCode/gnu/gdb/git/gdb/testsuite/gdb.base/savedregs.c:42); saved pc = 0x7fb7ffc350^M called by frame at 0x7fffffe800, caller of frame at 0x7fffffe7e0^M source language c.^M Arglist at 0x7fffffe7f0, args: sig=11^M Locals at 0x7fffffe7f0, Previous frame's sp is 0x7fffffe800 (gdb) FAIL: gdb.base/savedregs.exp: Get catcher info frame looks the test expects to match "Saved registers:" from the output of "info frame", but no registers are saved on these two frames, because thrower and catcher are simple and leaf functions.

I did both, and feel that the latter is simple, so here is it. gdb/testsuite: 2015-03-26 Yao Qi <yao.qi@linaro.org> * gdb.base/savedregs.exp (process_saved_regs): Make "Saved registers:" optional in the pattern.
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.
