GDB 10.1 release: branching early July?

[Joel Brobecker <brobecker@adacore.com>]

Hi everyone,

Now that the GDB 9.2 release has been out for a few weeks, what
do you think about turning our attention to starting the GDB 10
release cycle?  I looked at the NEWS file, and there is a decent
number of new features.

Based on that, what do you think of aiming for branching during
the weekend of July 4th? That's 3 weeks from now. We would then
be creating the first pre-release at the same time if possible,
and then try to aim for a release 2-3 weeks afterwards.

Are there any changes that you think we should have in master
before we create the branch?

This is what is current in the 10.1 list on Bugzilla:

  * [unassigned]
    <PR gdb/25412> thread_info with duplicate ptid added to inferior thread list
    https://sourceware.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=25412

    Reported by Simon, who started investigating a bit.
    Simon says the issue appeared after the "multi-target" patch
    series went in (5b6d1e4fa by Pedro).

    Simon - is that still an issue?

  * [RainerO]
    <PR gdb/25939> [10 regression] run fails with ICE on Solaris

    Not sure if this is still an issue or not. Rainer did push some
    patches to master back in May. To be confirmed.

I also know of the following issue which I think should get fixed
before we branch:

  * [AndrewB/TomT]
    QEMU / GDB compatibility on RISCV64 ELF (failure to fetch some registers)
    https://sourceware.org/pipermail/gdb-patches/2020-June/169393.html

Anything else you think we should include?

Thank you!
