-BUGTRAQ: solaris/utility/gnu_compiler
-COMMENTS:
-
-This file contains information about the emacs package within the Userland
-consolidation. Along with the comments in the Makefile, it documents any
-deviations from standard Userland or emacs practice, as well as miscellaneous
-information needed to understand how this component is put together.
-
-
-We made the following changes to the gdb sources:
-
-gdb/auxv.c (gdb.auxv.c.patch);
- This patch accounts for differences between the aux vector on
- solaris versus Linux and big endian (Sparc) versus little
- endian (AMD/Intel):
-
- - Solaris pads out the auxv for 32 bit process to 64 bits when
- being read by a 64 bit process. Use the native pointer size in
- gdb itself to determine the auxv field size.
-
- - On 64 bit Solaris SPARC, i.e. big endian, the type will be in the
- left 4 bytes for 32 bit processes and the right 4 bytes for 64
- bit processes. The padding is 0.
-
-gdb/fork-child.c (gdb.fork-child.c.patch):
- Solaris could require 2 or 3 exec's to start the debugged process
- depending on whether the user's SHELL is isaexec'ed or not. Modify
- startup_inferior to loop until it finds the correct process rather
- than assuming a fixed count.
-
-gdb/solib-svr4.c (gdb.solib-svr4.patch):
- Enhance gdb's dectection of the runtime linker to include amd64 and
- sparcv9 when debugging 64 bit processes.
