The master branch has been updated by Tom de Vries <vries@sourceware.org>: https://sourceware.org/git/gitweb.cgi?p=binutils-gdb.git;h=b44293099e215d6558a8d91b5eaab137218d2e27 commit b44293099e215d6558a8d91b5eaab137218d2e27 Author: Tom de Vries <tdevries@suse.de> Date: Fri Aug 4 15:02:43 2023 +0200 [gdb/testsuite] Extend gdb.base/index-cache.exp The test-case gdb.base/index-cache.exp uses only one source file, which contains main. While doing "file $exec", in set_initial_language a symbol lookup of "main" is done, causing the symtab containing main to be expanded. Handling of main is special, and a future optimization may skip the lookup and expansion. Reliably exercise: - the lookup of main, expanding the symtab containing main, by doing "ptype main", and - the lookup of another symbol, expanding a symtab not containing main, by: - adding another source file containing function foo, and - doing "ptype foo". This triggered a segfault with target board native-extended-gdbserver, filed as PR symtab/30712, but that seems to be fixed by a previous commit in this series. Tested on x86_64-linux.

Fixed.
