gdb: Fix occasional build failure

2023-03-07T10:45:25+00:00

When running the configure check "checking for ELF support in BFD", LDFLAGS were not being passed in to libtool. In OE/YP, we need these flags when using uninative due to the games we play with the dynamic loader. If a version of libzstd was built against a newer glibc, it would need newer pthread symbols which it wouldn't find with the system linker. At runtime this isn't an issue as it would be switched to use uninative but we pass flags in LDFLAGS to allow this. The bug is rare to reproduce as it depends on the host libzstd was built against.

gdb: Upgrade to 13.1

2023-02-24T11:04:28+00:00

Add patch to fix typo for build on musl GDB 13.1 includes the following changes and enhancements: * Support for the following new targets has been added in both GDB and GDBserver: ** GNU/Linux/LoongArch (gdbserver) loongarch*-*-linux* ** GNU/Linux/CSKY (gdbserver) csky*-*linux* * The Windows native target now supports target async. * FreeBSD: ** Arm and AArch64: Support for Thread Local Storage (TLS) variables ** Hardware watchpoint support on AArch64 FreeBSD * Floating-point support has now been added on LoongArch GNU/Linux. * New commands: ** set print nibbles [on|off] show print nibbles This controls whether the 'print/t' command will display binary values in groups of four bits, known as "nibbles". The default is 'off'. ** Various styling-related commands. See the gdb/NEWS file for more details (see link at the bottom). ** Various maintenance commands. These are normally aimed at GDB experts or developers. See the gdb/NEWS file for more details (see link at the bottom). * Python API improvements: ** New Python API for instruction disassembly. The new attribute 'locations' of gdb.Breakpoint returns a list of gdb.BreakpointLocation objects specifying the locations where the breakpoint is inserted into the debuggee. ** New Python type gdb.BreakpointLocation. ** New function gdb.format_address(ADDRESS, PROGSPACE, ARCHITECTURE) that formats ADDRESS as 'address ' ** New function gdb.current_language that returns the name of the current language. Unlike gdb.parameter('language'), this will never return 'auto'. ** New function gdb.print_options that returns a dictionary of the prevailing print options, in the form accepted by gdb.Value.format_string. ** New method gdb.Frame.language that returns the name of the frame's language. ** gdb.Value.format_string now uses the format provided by 'print', if it is called during a 'print' or other similar operation. ** gdb.Value.format_string now accepts the 'summary' keyword. This can be used to request a shorter representation of a value, the way that 'set print frame-arguments scalars' does. ** The gdb.register_window_type method now restricts the set of acceptable window names. The first character of a window's name must start with a character in the set [a-zA-Z], every subsequent character of a window's name must be in the set [-_.a-zA-Z0-9]. * GDB/MI changes: ** MI version 1 is deprecated, and will be removed in GDB 14. ** The async record stating the stopped reason 'breakpoint-hit' now contains an optional field locno. * Miscellaneous improvements: ** gdb now supports zstd compressed debug sections (ELFCOMPRESS_ZSTD) for ELF. ** New convenience variable $_inferior_thread_count contains the number of live threads in the current inferior. ** New convenience variables $_hit_bpnum and $_hit_locno, set to the breakpoint number and the breakpoint location number of the breakpoint last hit. ** The "info breakpoints" now displays enabled breakpoint locations of disabled breakpoints as in the "y-" state. ** The format of 'disassemble /r' and 'record instruction-history /r' has changed to match the layout of GNU objdump when disassembling. A new format "/b" has been introduce to provide the old behavior of "/r". ** The TUI no longer styles the source and assembly code highlighted by the current position indicator by default. You can however re-enable styling using the new "set style tui-current-position" command. ** It is now possible to use the "document" command to document user-defined commands. ** Support for memory tag data for AArch64 MTE. * Support Removal notices: ** DBX mode has been removed. ** Support for building against Python version 2 has been removed. It is now only possible to build GDB against Python 3. ** Support for the following commands has been removed: set debug aix-solib on|off show debug aix-solib set debug solib-frv on|off show debug solib-frv Use the "set/show debug solib" commands instead.

An automated conversion using scripts/contrib/convert-spdx-licenses.py to convert to use the standard SPDX license identifiers. Two recipes in meta-selftest were not converted as they're that way specifically for testing. A change in linux-firmware was also skipped and may need a more manual tweak.
