Hello,
What is a good ia64 target? The maintainer file currently notes:
ia64 (--target=ia64-elf broken)
if I try to configure that, nothing interesting happens (the GDB
directory didn't appear to even be created).
Could someone suggest a better generic ia64 target that can be used to
build a cross debug ia64 GDB.
enjoy,
Andrew

I was able to reproduce J.T.'s problem on NetBSD 1.4 and have fixed it.
See http://sources.redhat.com/ml/gdb-patches/2001-03/msg00341.html
for the details. (I would appreciate it though if J.T. would retest
on his NetBSD 1.3 box.)

I don't think this is necessary. It is for someone making purely
mechanical changes (eg moving a function declaration, deleting a global
variable).

Note that all of these hosts use ELF/svr4 shared libraries. On
others, it fails to build. I believe all of the Linux targets suffer
from this bug.
That might be considered an OK limitation for Linux targets. But if
we're going to have a config listed in the MAINTAINERS list so we can
use it to verify that global changes don't break builds, we have to
ensure that those configs build on all hosts.

Puzzled expression :-)
Just put it back to broken for now and then Kevin and/or I will figure

Are you sure?
I've just checked and solib-svr4.o (and solib-legacy.o) appear in
the TDEPFILES list in each of the linux.mt files. This means that
shared library support will be compiled in for the target.
The thing that's missing to make this actual usable on IA-64
is the definition of a suitable link_map_offsets fetcher. But
even without this, I think it should still build.
Which host OS are you trying this with? (If it's something that runs
on i386, I'd like to fetch a copy and try it out for myself.)

Keven recently fixed this - you really can cross compile shared library
support for linux targets (I'm pretty sure I double checked a !linux X
ia64-linux before updating this).

Yes.
Both ia64-linux and i386-linux fail to build on a i386-netbsd1.3 host.
I suspect these targets would also fail to build on on sparc-sunos, or
any other host without ELF/svr4 shared libraries because solib-legacy.c
includes the host's "link.h" header.

How about...
--target=ia64-unknown-linux
I've successfully done a configure and make with
--target=ia64-unknown-linux on the following hosts:
i386-unknown-freebsd4.2
i386-unknown-netbsdelf1.5
i386-pc-solaris2.8
i686-pc-linux-gnu
ia64-unknown-linux
Of course, this only takes care of the build portion. If you want to
(somehow) test the resulting gdb, you need to have access to an IA-64
machine running Linux or a simulator (running Linux).
See http://www.software.hp.com/products/LIA64/overview4a.htm for info
on an IA-64 simulator. (I did much of the initial development with an
i686-pc-linux-gnu cross ia64-unknown-linux GDB using HP's ski
simulator. It is able to boot Linux and runs amazingly well.)
It may also be possible to use HP's NUE environment to do the testing
I have not tried this.

Ummm, I wouldn't have sent a message if the ia64-linux target wasn't
failing on my nightly builds (i386-netbsd1.3 host).
