Hello again,
So, quick recap of where we are with respect to branching:
> PR19474 "break LINE_NUM" set breakpoint on file other than current source file
Analyzed, tricky to fix, not blocking for 7.11
> PR19503 internal-error: linux_nat_resume: Assertion `lp != NULL' failed.
Fixed by Pedro.
> PR19506 Regression with gdb.Breakpoint("*<addr>")
This lead to a wider fix:
[PATCH V2 0/4] Add support for "legacy" linespecs
https://www.sourceware.org/ml/gdb-patches/2016-02/msg00024.html
(I will try to take a look at them this weekend)
PR 19548 - breakpoint re-set inserts breakpoints when it shouldn't
Pedro sent a patch:
https://sourceware.org/ml/gdb-patches/2016-02/msg00014.html
There is also a crash (regression):
PR 19546 - gdb crash calling exec in the inferior
Initial guestimate from Pedro:
| Looks like a regression of the explicit locations work.
Still in Pedro's court, or could Keith help?
Sergio - would you be able to give us a rough description of how
good the results are in the buildbots? Anything we should be
aware of for this release? (Thanks!)
Thanks!
