GDB 10.2 release (respin) -- 2021-02-23 Update

GDB 10.2 release (respin) -- 2021-02-23 Update

[Joel Brobecker]

Hello,

Here is a quick update on where we are for the 10.2 corrective
release.

Fixed Since the Previous Update:
--------------------------------

  * [SimonM] <PR gdb/27435>
    Attach on solaris segfaults GDB
    https://sourceware.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=27435

    (thanks Simon for the heads up)

Added Since the Last Update:
----------------------------

  < none :) >

Other Ongoing Items:
--------------------

  * [SimonM] <PR gdb/26828>
    SIGSEGV in follow_die_offset dwarf2/read.c:22950
    https://sourceware.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=26828

    I see that Simon posted a patch series that the bug reporter
    confirmed fixes the issue; 2 patches were pushed, and 2 remain.

    [PATCH 3/4] gdb/dwarf: don't enqueue CU in maybe_queue_comp_unit if already expanded
    https://sourceware.org/pipermail/gdb-patches/2021-January/175265.html
    Has been waiting for feedback for 2 months, with ping a month ago,
    so JoelB suggests we trust Simon's judgement and go without
    additional review.

    [PATCH 4/4] gdb/dwarf: create and destroy dwarf2_per_bfd's CUs-to-expand queue
    https://sourceware.org/pipermail/gdb-patches/2020-December/173964.html
    Already approved by TomT

  * [<UNASSIGNED>] <PR backtrace/27147>
    [GNU/Linux, sparc64] GDB is unable to print full stack trace (got "previous frame inner to this frame" errors)
    https://sourceware.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=27147

    As the subject says, it's an unwinder issue.
    Simon was able to reproduce, and tied this issue to a specific
    commit adding multi-target support.

    It's a 9->10 regression, so it would be nice to fix, but the risk
    at the moment, is that the PR is currently not assigned, so there is
    no "champion" to look after it.

Not Critical, but Requested:
----------------------------

  < none :) >

Thank you!

I would consider this patch for gdb-10-branch.
