	* value.h (value_tls_objfile, set_value_tls_objfile,
	value_at_lazy_tls): Provide TLS `struct objfile *' storage.
	* Makefile.in: Updated dependencies.

2006-08-25  Jan Kratochvil  <jan.kratochvil@redhat.com>

	* gdb.threads/tls-nodebug.c: New file, test TLS symbols on gcc -s.
	* gdb.threads/tls-nodebug.exp: New file, test TLS symbols on gcc -s.

Forgot again, last time, sorry.  Isn't there some tool to generate this
changelog type templates from the diff?

Thanks for info, to be followed.
Personal info: That gnatsweb is just unusable, move to Bugzilla, please.

If I compile code with or without -pthread (on Fedora Core 5) "errno" is never
found in the target (dynamic) executable.  "errno" is there only with -ggdb3 as:
	DW_MACINFO_define - lineno : 47 macro : errno (*__errno_location ())

Unaware why %gs is not being used in the user code.
%gs-using "errno.h" is available only during glibc compilation.  I get only:

8048915:       e8 1e fc ff ff          call   8048538 <__errno_location@plt>
804891a:       8b 00                   mov    (%eax),%eax
804891c:       89 04 24                mov    %eax,(%esp)

Both patches were developed together.  Still that
	RFC: Ignore TLS symbols for non-TLS programs
		gdb-6.5-bz185337-missing-errno-suggestion.patch
had been mostly obsolete by the other one and deprecated after your comments.

You are right, rewritten by your advice.  I had a problem delaying it before as
the TLS `errno' for non-TLS inferior detection had to be written differently.

The trailing part of `target_translate_tls_address' now already contains
	gdb-6.5-bz185337-missing-errno-suggestion.patch

Sorry but I do not understand a reason to do so.

Removed.

It works, empty command produces empty string.
gdb-unified by '$options', though - thanks.

Sorry, I probably do not have such high overview of the code - what code would
you patch to "resolve the address using the target"?

The following text is probably useless:

% I just did not see there any target-specific code needing to be modified
% as former `dwarf_expr_tls_address' covers it nice.
% 
% I am aware the TLS-resolving should be done as late as possible as
% linux-thread-db.c providing its target_get_thread_local_address_p () may be
% initialized very late.
% 
% The latest possible time is `value_at_lazy_tls' but there is no longer
% available `struct objfile *' for `target_translate_tls_address'.
% So I had to pass such information somehow to `value_at_lazy_tls'.
% 
% The target info is `struct objfile *' for `target_translate_tls_address'.
% The source info is `bfd *' in `write_exp_msymbol'.
% I could store `bfd *' (`SYMBOL_BFD_SECTION (msymbol)->owner')
% or `int' (`SYMBOL_BFD_SECTION (msymbol)->owner->id')
% or `struct objfile *' (resolved from `bfd *').
% 
% I chose `struct objfile *', so I had to extend `struct value' to store it.
% I would have to extend `struct value' by some field anyway.
% I also had to extend `union exp_element' to store the new type there.
% I would have to extend `union exp_element' even for `bfd *',
% only in the case of chosen `bfd.id' `union exp_element' could be reused.
% 
% I do not find much difference how to store this additional information,
% I just did not find a way how to deal without it.

I hope this is no longer to be resolved as this patch got dropped.
Sorry but I do not understand `DTV'.
