gdb: drop support for Microblaze

2017-08-04T20:01:38+00:00

Microblaze support was never upstreamed in gdb. We currently use a gdb from the Xilinx Github repository, but this gdb is based on 7.6, and has never been updated in the last 4 years. There are no other active branches at https://github.com/Xilinx/gdb/branches. Xilinx has a slightly newer gdb, based on 7.7, available at https://github.com/Xilinx/meta-xilinx/tree/master/recipes-microblaze/gdb. However, it's apparently only available in the form of stack of big patches (https://github.com/Xilinx/meta-xilinx/tree/master/recipes-microblaze/gdb/files). Currently, gdb on Microblaze fails to build in various conditions: * Against glibc, with "error: conflicting types for 'ps_lgetfpregs'" * Against musl, with "error: unknown type name 'elf_gregset_t'" While those issues can probably be fixed, the fact that there is no active upstream significantly reduces the incentive to fix those problems. Therefore, let's drop support for gdb on Microblaze entirely.

gdb: not available on ARM noMMU and OpenRISC

2017-06-11T16:00:48+00:00

Neither gdb nor gdbserver have support for ARM noMMU and OpenRISC, so let's disable gdb on those architectures. Signed-off-by: Thomas Petazzoni --- Changes since v2: - Fixed BR2_openrisc to BR2_or1k in Config.in.host Changes since v1: - Fixed BR2_openrisc to BR2_or1k

gdb: introduce BR2_PACKAGE_GDB_ARCH_SUPPORTS

2017-06-11T16:00:48+00:00

Before adding more architecture dependencies to gdb, let's introduce a BR2_PACKAGE_GDB_ARCH_SUPPORTS, to avoid duplicating this list of dependencies between the Config.in comment and the main Config.in option. Signed-off-by: Thomas Petazzoni --- Changes since v2: - None Changes since v1: - None

packages/g*/Config.in: fix ordering of statements

2017-05-01T09:32:04+00:00

The check-package script when ran gives warnings on ordering issues on all of these Config files. This patch cleans up all warnings related to the ordering in the Config files for packages starting with the letter g in the package directory. The appropriate ordering is: type, default, depends on, select, help See http://nightly.buildroot.org/#_config_files for more information. Signed-off-by: Adam Duskett Signed-off-by: Thomas Petazzoni

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.
