Hi everyone,
If you see your name attached to an item, would you mind double-checking
that the status is correct? I'm wondering, for instance, if some patches
might be open on gerrit while a different patch got pushed in the end,
but without the same ChangeId in the revision log (preventing Gerrit
from detecting that the patch was pushed, and thus closing the review).
Here is another update. Sadly, it looks like progress on the specific
items we identified has been slow (1 item moved to the "done" section).
As in the previous update, we can use the "for-9.1" tag to identify patches
that we think should go in GDB 9.1. Here is the URL to the corresponding
dashboard:
https://gnutoolchain-gerrit.osci.io/r/q/hashtag:%22for-9.1%22+(status:open%20OR%20status:merged
As a quick overview, as of today, we are at:
- 3 merged
- 1 pending (I think it will go in soon)
- 11 patches that no longer apply ("Merge Conflict") :-(
Still Pending:
--------------
- [Tom DV] Only force INTERP_CONSOLE ui_out for breakpoint commands in MI mode
https://sourceware.org/ml/gdb-patches/2019-10/msg00099.html
Gerrit: https://gnutoolchain-gerrit.osci.io/r/c/binutils-gdb/+/28
Pedro gave it the OK, but mentioned that he'd like Andrew to review.
- [Tom DV] Prefer var def over decl
https://sourceware.org/ml/gdb-patches/2019-09/msg00161.html
Gerrit: https://gnutoolchain-gerrit.osci.io/r/c/binutils-gdb/+/29
Tom T said the patch is reasonable, but was wondering whether
we shouldn't even be in that situation in the first place, if
we were to not create symbols for declarations... This lead to
a different patch, but after discussion, we propose the original
patch for trunk to start, and then discuss the alternative
approach after 9.x branching. Joel is double-checking with
TomT that this is OK with him as well.
- [Christian B] The threaded symbol loading that tromey Christian have been working on
Gerrit: https://gnutoolchain-gerrit.osci.io/r/q/topic:%22minsyms-threads%22+(status:open%20OR%20status:merged)
This patchset was identified as a risk for inclusion so close
to branching, due to the use of threads for parallelizing
the load of minsyms. However, considering the potentially massive
gains to be had on large programs, the consensus was to allow
this patch under the control of a setting, off by default; and
then remove that setting once we've branched.
- [TomT] Fix the "winheight" command
https://gnutoolchain-gerrit.osci.io/r/c/binutils-gdb/+/371
Fixes a regression.
Tom says it can be backported after branching if needed.
- [TomT] Handle pending stops from the Windows kernel
Gerrit: https://gnutoolchain-gerrit.osci.io/r/c/binutils-gdb/+/414
- [TomT] Add pending stop support to gdbserver's Windows port
Gerrit: https://gnutoolchain-gerrit.osci.io/r/c/binutils-gdb/+/432
Fixes an internal-error.
If reviewed and completed in time:
----------------------------------
- [PhilippeW] [RFC] Have an option to tell GDB to detect and possibly handle mismatched exec-files
https://sourceware.org/ml/gdb-patches/2019-09/msg00580.html
- [PhilippeW] Allow the user to define default leading args for commands and aliases
https://sourceware.org/ml/gdb-patches/2019-09/msg00583.html
- [PhilippeW] Implement 'print -raw-values' and 'set print raw-values on|off'
https://sourceware.org/ml/gdb-patches/2019-09/msg00582.html
- [PhilippeW] More flexible user-defined commands prefixing and naming
https://sourceware.org/ml/gdb-patches/2019-09/msg00588.html
- [AndrewB] MI access to some new CLI commands
Gerrit: https://gnutoolchain-gerrit.osci.io/r/c/binutils-gdb/+/264
Gerrit: https://gnutoolchain-gerrit.osci.io/r/c/binutils-gdb/+/265
Gerrit: https://gnutoolchain-gerrit.osci.io/r/c/binutils-gdb/+/266
Gerrit: https://gnutoolchain-gerrit.osci.io/r/c/binutils-gdb/+/267
Gerrit: https://gnutoolchain-gerrit.osci.io/r/c/binutils-gdb/+/268
Gerrit: https://gnutoolchain-gerrit.osci.io/r/c/binutils-gdb/+/269
Most of these patches already pre-reviewed.
Completed since the last update (2019-11-11):
---------------------------------------------
- [AndrewB] gdb: Support printf 'z' size modifier
Gerrit: https://gnutoolchain-gerrit.osci.io/r/c/binutils-gdb/+/511
Fixes a regression.
Thank you all!

This is actually the normal state due to ChangeLog files.
I just ignore that column.

I will look at this either today or tomorrow.

I must have missed this discussion. I saw Christian had a patch to do
this, but I think maybe it can be done more simply... I will
investigate.

I'll send a smaller version of this that doesn't involve rewriting all
of the TUI layout code.
Joel> - [TomT] Handle pending stops from the Windows kernel

These two are the same series, I'm re-investigating now.

I think it's possible to just cherry-pick the final patch in that series.
So, I'll probably check it in later today, if testing it shows it is ok.

Ping for reviews ?
Thanks
