The port has been updated to GDB 8.0.

+ +

Support for &os;/aarch64 userland binaries has been committed + upstream. These patches, along with support for debugging + &os;/aarch64 kernels, have been committed to the port.

+ +

Upstream patches adding improved support for &os;/arm userland + binaries are currently in review. &os; 12 has recently grown + support for debugging VFP registers via ptrace() and + core dumps as part of this work. Support for &os;/arm kernels + will be added to the port after the upstream patches are added + to the port.

+ +

Support for $_siginfo has been committed upstream. + This uses the recently added NT_LWPINFO note to extract + signal information from process cores.

+ +

Hangs that occured when GDB's kill command was used + were fixed in &os; in r313992.

+ + + + Figure out why the powerpc kgdb targets are not able to + unwind the stack past the initial frame. + + Test support for sparc64 binaries and kernels. + + Add support for debugging powerpc vector registers. + + Implement info proc commands. + + Implement info os commands. + +
