This patch updates GDB to 7.9. More details are available at the code review URL, but I've duplicated the draft commit message: Update to 7.9. - Move changes that have been adopted upstream after 7.9 into extra patches named after the commit to GDB's master branch. This includes previous patches such as the signal trampoline detection fixes and XSAVE support as well as well as new fixes such as fixing 'gcore' to not require procfs. - The tui-io.c patch previously needed with new readline has been accepted upstream. - The remaining patches have been updated to apply cleanly. - The threads target has been fixed to actually pass register requests for LWP-backed threads down to the ptrace backends without detouring via libthread_db which actually fixes AVX with threads.
Not sure why the auto-assigner didn't do this. Also, do you know if we really need the amd64fbsd-nat.c patch to clear any non-PSL_USERCHANGE flags? More specificially, that patch was added for the update to 7.6, but I'm curious if we still need it?
Correct the maintainer-feedback widget.
Hi John, great work, update definitely approved! thanks for your job best regards, Luca
