* [Bug symtab/31363] New: Remove support for .gdb_index @ 2024-02-09 20:03 tromey at sourceware dot org 2024-02-09 20:04 ` [Bug symtab/31363] " tromey at sourceware dot org ` (2 more replies) 0 siblings, 3 replies; 4+ messages in thread From: tromey at sourceware dot org @ 2024-02-09 20:03 UTC (permalink / raw) To: gdb-prs https://sourceware.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=31363 Bug ID: 31363 Summary: Remove support for .gdb_index Product: gdb Version: HEAD Status: NEW Severity: normal Priority: P2 Component: symtab Assignee: unassigned at sourceware dot org Reporter: tromey at sourceware dot org Target Milestone: --- Now that the .debug_names writer has been rewritten, I think we should plan to remove .gdb_index. While .debug_names has some drawbacks (reuse of the string table means more data to download when just the index is desired), it is also better documented and integrates better with the new DWARF scanner. -- You are receiving this mail because: You are on the CC list for the bug. ^ permalink raw reply [flat|nested] 4+ messages in thread

Worth noting here that .gdb_index won't easily work with lazy CU expansion, if we end up implementing that. -- You are receiving this mail because: You are on the CC list for the bug. ^ permalink raw reply [flat|nested] 4+ messages in thread
