[patch] [ia64] No start when GDB built with -lmcheck

[Jan Kratochvil]

Hi,

build GDB with -lmcheck (valgrind would be similar) to get:

$ gdb -nx -ex r --args ./gdb -nx -ex r true
...
Program received signal SIGSEGV, Segmentation fault.

$1 = 128
(gdb) p descr->register_type[i]
$2 = (struct type *) 0x9393939393939393

304

The two conflictin lines:

-  tdep = xmalloc (sizeof (struct gdbarch_tdep));

	Fix ia64 start crash when GDB built with -lmcheck.
	* ia64-tdep.c (ia64_gdbarch_init): Allocate TDEP as cleared.
