src/gdb ChangeLog common/glibc_thread_db.h


CVSROOT:	/cvs/src
Module name:	src
Changes by:	palves@sourceware.org	2013-04-16 18:17:11

Modified files:
	gdb            : ChangeLog 
	gdb/common     : glibc_thread_db.h 

Log message:
	Update glibc_thread_db.h from upstream.
	
	Attempting to build gdbserver with our copy of thread_db.h yields:
	
	In file included from ../../../src/gdb/gdbserver/../common/gdb_thread_db.h:4:0,
	from ../../../src/gdb/gdbserver/thread-db.c:30:
	../../../src/gdb/gdbserver/../common/glibc_thread_db.h:108:3: error: unknown type name âuint32_tâ
	In file included from ../../../src/gdb/gdbserver/../common/gdb_thread_db.h:4:0,

	../../../src/gdb/gdbserver/../common/glibc_thread_db.h:270:3: error: unknown type name âintptr_tâ
	
	We used to have a workaround for this, but the patch to import
	gnulib's stdint.h removed it:
	
	http://www.sourceware.org/ml/gdb-patches/2008-06/msg00050.html
	
	and defs.h made to always include stdint.h.  However, gdbserver
	doesn't include stdint.h in its equivalent server.h.
	
	Rather than working around the issue, I've imported a more recent
	version from glibc, which itself includes <stdint.h>.  Other than
	copyright years and FSF snail mail address, the file hasn't been
	touched since 2003 in glibc.  AFAICS, our version was updated last in
	2000-09-03.
	
	A note on the apparent license change: before the previous patch, this
	file's contents were part of gdb_thread_db.h, and we can see that its
	license's text was changed in this patch
	<http://sourceware.org/ml/gdb-patches/2009-03/msg00251.html>.  That
	was certainly just an easy to overlook grep/sed mistake that fell
	through the cracks.

	* glibc_thread_db.h: Update from upstream glibc
