gdb: enable host-gdb on aarch64

2015-10-20T14:34:37+00:00

gdb has full support for aarch64 since version 7.6, current minimum is 7.7.1. Target build was re-enabled over a year ago, but host-gdb was not.

gdb: do not build documentation for bfd and gprof

2015-10-03T21:14:27+00:00

Our previous patch to disable the documentation in gdb wasn't complete. There are cases where the documentation under bfd and gprof directories is being built, causing the subsequent failure due to missing makeinfo. This patch fixes that problem.

gdb: prevent building the documentation

2015-09-11T17:29:01+00:00

Force gdb to not build the documentation. This way we avoid depending on host-texinfo. This is a temporary fix until upstream accepts a proposed --disable-docs configure option. Since the documentation will not be build at all, we can remove the parts related to host-texinfo and MAKEINFO in the gdb.mk file.

gdb: use 7.9 by default

2015-08-29T15:43:21+00:00

Now that we have added 7.10, let's switch to 7.9 as the default gdb version. Signed-off-by: Thomas Petazzoni Signed-off-by: Peter Korsgaard

gdb: add support for gdb 7.10

2015-08-29T15:43:21+00:00

This commit adds support for gdb 7.10. gdb 7.9.1 carries the following patches: - 0001-gdbserver-fix-uClibc-whithout-MMU.patch merged as 6282837972a5c7b89968319caf821fcbd2a166bb, and part of 7.10 - 0002-gdbserver-xtensa-drop-xtensa_usrregs_info.patch merged as deb44829ecc1dd38275af0fcf91acd319e227a89, and part of 7.10 - 0003-gdbserver-xtensa-fix-typo-in-XCHAL_HAVE_LOOPS.patch merged as a2d5a9d76f2366ed93095fc5a63eafa06b22f808, and part of 7.10 Consequently, none of the three patches we have for 7.9.1 are useful for 7.10.

ARC: update tools to arc-2015.06 release

2015-07-18T09:13:31+00:00

I'm happy to update GNU tools for ARC cores to the most recent arc-2015.06 release. This release brings following major improvements: * GCC: source update to v4.8.4 * GCC: C ABI compatibility between MetaWare and GNU toolchains * uClibc: support for thread local storage and Native Pthread Library (NPTL) * GDB: updated to version 7.9.1 Also a lot of fixes and improvements has been done, please refer to https://github.com/foss-for-synopsys-dwc-arc-processors/toolchain/releases/tag/arc-2015.06 for more details.

ARC: switch to RC1 of upcoming arc-2015.06 tools

2015-06-28T12:35:15+00:00

Even though this is only RC1 it's been heavily used internally so it should not be any worse than existing arc-2014.12. Moreover this relase (and so its RC1) finally delivers support of NPTL for ARC in uClibc. That's why it would be good to allow interested users to start trying it (for example WebKit and apps that use WebKit could be successfully built and run) also it will be helpful to run that new toolchain through autobuilder in attempt to find any hidden regressions so we have a solid toolchain for release. If there's an interest in that patch more patches will follow with subsequent RCs and essentially on appearence or relese Buildroot will be updated with it.

gdb: bump 7.9 series to 7.9.1

2015-06-22T22:23:52+00:00

Note that both gdb 7.9 and 7.9.1 fail to build in a chroot without texinfo, due to the infamous makeinfo issue. This should be fixed separately. [Peter: fixup white space] Signed-off-by: Thomas Petazzoni Signed-off-by: Peter Korsgaard

package/gdb: gdb+expat build fix

2015-06-21T07:50:00+00:00

Commit 23413b51b2308225584b65c2fcd800ca8f7c56af added --with-expat configure option and expat dependency when BR2_PACKAGE_EXPAT is configured. When cross-compiling, gdb configure fails because the host system libexpat is referenced. Configuring gdb with --with-libexpat-prefix=$(STAGING_DIR)/usr fixes the reference and allows gdb to build successfully. Tested with arm-buildroot-linux-gnueabihf toolchain.
