I did not know there is the global function get_remote_state().
Checked in.
Thanks,

Subject: [PATCH] Workaround gdbserver<7.7 for setfs
Date: Wed, 6 Apr 2016 17:13:12 +0200
With current FSF GDB HEAD and old FSF gdbserver I expected I could do:
gdb -ex 'file target:/root/redhat/threadit' -ex 'target remote :1234'
(supplying that unsupported qXfer:exec-file:read by "file")
But that does not work because:
Sending packet: $vFile:setfs:0#bf...Packet received: OK
Packet vFile:setfs (hostio-setfs) is supported
...
Sending packet: $vFile:setfs:104#24...Packet received: OK
"target:/root/redhat/threadit": could not open as an executable file: Invalid argument
GDB documentation says:
The valid responses to Host I/O packets are:
An empty response indicates that this operation is not recognized.
This "empty response" vs. "OK" was a bug in gdbserver < 7.7. It was fixed by:

Fix a bug in matching notifications.
