- Subject: [commit] Support finding dwp files in debug-file-directory
Hi.
Sometimes the dwp file cannot be found via gdb's normal means.
[e.g. http://sourceware.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=15652]
Or the dwp file may be in a special directory for the user's own reasons.
This patch adds support to look for dwp file via debug-file-directory
if it's not found via normal means.
Regression tested on amd64-linux and committed.

symtab/15652
* dwarf2read.c (try_open_dwop_file): New arg search_cwd.
All callers updated.
(open_dwp_file): If we can't find the dwp file, search the basename
in debug-file-directory.
