Forgot, implemented/fixed. No regressions on {x86_64,x86_64-m32,i686}-fedora12-linux-gnu. Thanks, Jan gdb/ 2010-05-23 Jan Kratochvil Make core files the process_stratum. * corefile.c (core_target): New variable. (core_file_command): Remove variable t, use core_target. * corelow.c (core_ops): Make it static. (init_core_ops): Change to process_stratum. Initialize CORE_TARGET. * gdbarch.sh (core_pid_to_str): Remove core_stratum from its comment. * gdbarch.h: Regenerate. * gdbcore.h (core_target): New declaration. * inf-ptrace.c (inf_ptrace_create_inferior): Move push_target before fork_inferior, comment it. (inf_ptrace_attach): Call pop_all_targets_above. * record.c (record_open): Replace core_stratum by a core_bfd check. * target.c (find_core_target): Remove. * target.h (enum strata) : Remove. (find_core_target): Remove declaration. * tracepoint.c (init_tfile_ops) : Remove comment. gdb/doc/ 2010-05-23 Jan Kratochvil Make core files the process_stratum. * gdb.texinfo (Active Targets): Remove core_stratum. Include record_stratum example. gdb/testsuite/ 2010-05-23 Jan Kratochvil Make core files the process_stratum. * gdb.base/corefile.exp (run: load core again) (run: sanity check we see the core file, run: with core) (run: core file is cleared, attach: load core again) (attach: sanity check we see the core file, attach: with core) (attach: core file is cleared): New tests. * gdb.base/coremaker.c (main): New parameters.
