gdb: arc: remove C++ dependency and disable build with C++

2016-11-15T22:08:15+00:00

gdb arc-2016.09-rc1 is based on upstream 7.12 gdb version where we can still disable C++ build. For more information take a look at: https://sourceware.org/gdb/wiki/cxx-conversion We wanted to build gdb with C++ as it is used as default in 7.12 and is even a mandatory requirement since 2016/09. But unfortunately we missed one runtime failure that C++ build causes and so now we have to disable C++ build. When gdb arc-2016.09-rc1 is built as a C++ application it segfaults at runtime for ARC. We are going to fix the issue in 2017.03 ARC toolchain release. and before this we remove C++ dependency are adding temporary workaround to prevent runtime segfaults. The workaround is to disable building gdb as C++ application via passing --disable-build-with-cxx config option when building gdb for ARC.

toolchain: Bump ARC tools to arc-2016.09-rc1

2016-11-14T20:40:58+00:00

As described at: 4520524ba055706236db9f00dd79f1b2e2e87fde this commit continues a series of updates of ARC tools. This time we're updating tools to arc-2016.09-rc1. This update contains a lot of important fixes, e.g. it fixes: http://autobuild.buildroot.net/results/4c7/4c77f33c842b37bf28cb931edf1b290e1bf4d93c// http://autobuild.buildroot.net/results/902/902729a0b98675ad803939e3ecdcf230065a6012// and other failures. Other important change is that we also update gdb. Now we are using gdb 7.12. This version of gdb requires C++ toolchain support so we add corresponding dependency to gdb Config.in file. Signed-off-by: Vlad Zakharov [Thomas: - fix dependency on C++ of gdb, it must use BR2_INSTALL_LIBSTDCPP - add comment about the C++ dependency of gdb on ARC.] Signed-off-by: Thomas Petazzoni

gdb: disable on Blackfin

2015-05-03T17:32:49+00:00

gdbserver does not build on Blackfin FLAT (undefined reference to `_td_thr_tlsbase') and while it builds on Blackfin FDPIC, it's pretty unlikely that it is going to work properly with the cross-gdb provided by the Analog Devices toolchain: the Analog Devices toolchain provides a 6.6 cross-gdb, while we use gdb 7.8.2 for gdbserver. Therefore, let's simply disable gdb completely for Blackfin.

gdb: add support for Python in target gdb

2014-09-16T20:52:37+00:00

This commit adds a new option BR2_PACKAGE_GDB_PYTHON to enable Python support in the target gdb. Since we can assume that the user will be aware that Python is needed to get Python support in gdb, we chose to use a "depends on" dependency instead of a "select" dependency. The other weird thing is the need for a wrapper shell script to replace gdb's provided python-config.py script. See the shell script comment itself for all the details.

gdb: enable tui support for target package

2014-09-16T20:25:40+00:00

Add a configuration option to compile the gdb target package with the --enable-tui switch. This is done pretty much in the same way as in commit 2474fb0bf1a7 ("host-gdb: enable terminal user interface support"), but for the gdb package on target. This makes sense only when a full debugger is installed on target, not for a gdbserver. [Thomas: remove "default n" since this is the default, adjust the prompt of the option, and rewrap the help text.] Signed-off-by: Vincent Stehlé Cc: Yegor Yefremov Signed-off-by: Thomas Petazzoni Signed-off-by: Peter Korsgaard

gdb: allow building on AArch64 systems
