    31 This file contains information about the emacs package within the Userland

    32 consolidation. Along with the comments in the Makefile, it documents any

    33 deviations from standard Userland or emacs practice, as well as miscellaneous

    34 information needed to understand how this component is put together.

    37 We made the following changes to the gdb sources:

    38 

    39 gdb/auxv.c (gdb.auxv.c.patch);

    40     This patch accounts for differences between the aux vector on

    41     solaris versus Linux and big endian (Sparc) versus little

    42     endian (AMD/Intel):

    43 

    44     - Solaris pads out the auxv for 32 bit process to 64 bits when

    45       being read by a 64 bit process.  Use the native pointer size in

    46       gdb itself to determine the auxv field size.

    47 

    48     - On 64 bit Solaris SPARC, i.e. big endian, the type will be in the

    49       left 4 bytes for 32 bit processes and the right 4 bytes for 64

    50       bit processes.  The padding is 0.

    51 

    52 gdb/fork-child.c (gdb.fork-child.c.patch):

    53     Solaris could require 2 or 3 exec's to start the debugged process

    54     depending on whether the user's SHELL is isaexec'ed or not.  Modify

    55     startup_inferior to loop until it finds the correct process rather

    56     than assuming a fixed count.

    57 

    58 gdb/solib-svr4.c (gdb.solib-svr4.patch):

    59     Enhance gdb's dectection of the runtime linker to include amd64 and

    60     sparcv9 when debugging 64 bit processes.
