Re: [patch] Bring QNX Neutrino support forward.

Some of this stuff is cosmetic/convenience. I made the macros for my nto_target structure testable and moved the comments into the structure where they're more useful.

A few things had to do with initializers. Some of the signal handling stuff didn't work because other _init functions hadn't been called so I moved them out to where they could be called when the osabi is initialized.


BTW, what was the race condition?

The _initialize_* functions were being called in a different order than previously so all my signal initialization stuff was breaking when I put it into my _init* funcs. It was a while ago I changed it (haven't been working on FSF gdb recently) but I believe it was target_signal_from_name....



I added osabi and core sniffers. Some is practical, some is future-proofing. If we start supporting multiple targets, I'm going to want to be able to swap our various target processors support in and out. The is_nto_target type stuff can be made more interesting later to do things like check to see if the remote host processor matches the binary abi and such.


You should also be able to kill off regset_core_fns, it's been superseeded by regsets (which reminds me ....).

Must have not seen that thread. I'll look into it.


cheers,

Kris
