(Sorry, forgot about it for a while after other things took priority) I don't know if you're still even interested in working on this, but here's what I've found: So far most things seem to be working quite well, the only problem I've found is 'info threads'/thread switching doesn't work ('info threads' displays nothing, switching throws an error). Still, it's far better than the base gdb, since that one wouldn't even run threaded programs. - Justin From owner-freebsd-ppc@FreeBSD.ORG Wed May 12 19:19:19 2010 Return-Path: Delivered-To: freebsd-ppc@freebsd.org Received: from mx1.freebsd.org (mx1.freebsd.org [IPv6:2001:4f8:fff6::34]) by hub.freebsd.org (Postfix) with ESMTP id F08D110656EB for ; Wed, 12 May 2010 19:19:19 +0000 (UTC) (envelope-from andreast-list@fgznet.ch) Received: from smtp.fgznet.ch (mail.fgznet.ch [81.92.96.47]) by mx1.freebsd.org (Postfix) with ESMTP id 738E98FC13 for ; Wed, 12 May 2010 19:19:18 +0000 (UTC) Received: from deuterium.andreas.nets (dhclient-91-190-8-131.flashcable.ch [91.190.8.131]) by smtp.fgznet.ch (8.13.8/8.13.8/Submit_SMTPAUTH) with ESMTP id o4CJJ06q019300; Wed, 12 May 2010 21:19:01 +0200 (CEST) (envelope-from andreast-list@fgznet.ch) Message-ID: <4BEAFF23.8080908@fgznet.ch> Date: Wed, 12 May 2010 21:18:59 +0200 From: Andreas Tobler User-Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (Macintosh; U; Intel Mac OS X 10.5; en-US; rv:1.9.1.9) Gecko/20100317 Lightning/1.0b1 Thunderbird/3.0.4 MIME-Version: 1.0 To: Justin Hibbits References: <4AC2758A.8030708@fgznet.ch> <4AC27BCE.9090502@fgznet.ch> In-Reply-To: Content-Type: text/plain; charset=ISO-8859-1; format=flowed Content-Transfer-Encoding: 7bit X-Scanned-By: MIMEDefang 2.64 on 81.92.96.47 Cc: FreeBSD PowerPC ML Subject: Re: RFC/H gdb6 port for powerpc X-BeenThere: freebsd-ppc@freebsd.org X-Mailman-Version: 2.1.5 Precedence: list List-Id: Porting FreeBSD to the PowerPC List-Unsubscribe: , List-Archive: List-Post: List-Help: List-Subscribe: , X-List-Received-Date: Wed, 12 May 2010 19:19:20 -0000 On 11.05.10 18:22, Justin Hibbits wrote: > On Tue, Sep 29, 2009 at 5:27 PM, Andreas Tobler > wrote: > > Hi Justin, > > > Justin Hibbits wrote: > > Thanks for taking on this port, maybe it'll fix the bug I filed > against the base gdb.

Well, if there are people who use the port, I'm happy to continue working on. For me it was enough at that time so I didn't continue in the public. I have some pending stuff for altivec which I need to back out and then I try to tackle the threads issue. I was not aware of. After fixing this I resubmit and I hope a porter will catch up my work and hopefully commit it to the ports tree. Thanks again. Andreas
