--- Comment #2 from cvs-commit at gcc dot gnu.org <cvs-commit at gcc dot gnu.org> --- The master branch has been updated by Tom de Vries <vr...@sourceware.org>: https://sourceware.org/git/gitweb.cgi?p=binutils-gdb.git;h=74cdc3e0888f1ffc3973a4826e85dd32e5a51037 commit 74cdc3e0888f1ffc3973a4826e85dd32e5a51037 Author: Tom de Vries <tdevr...@suse.de> Date: Mon Aug 23 12:08:25 2021 +0200 [gdb/testsuite] Use compiler-generated instead of gas-generated stabs The test-case gdb.dwarf2/dw2-ranges.exp is the only one in the gdb testsuite that uses gas-generated stabs. While the use seems natural alongside the use of gas-generated dwarf in the same test-case, there are a few known issues, filed on the gdb side as: - PR symtab/12497 - "stabs: PIE relocation does not work" - PR symtab/28221 - "[readnow, stabs] FAIL: gdb.dwarf2/dw2-ranges.exp: \ info line func" and on the gas side as: - PR gas/28233 - "[gas, --gstabs] Generate stabs more similar to gcc" The test-case contains a KFAIL for PR12497, but it's outdated and fails to trigger. The intention of the test-case is to test gas-generated dwarf, and using gcc-generated stabs instead of gas-generated stabs works fine. Supporting compiler-generated stabs is already a corner-case for gdb, and there's no current commitment/incentive to support/workaround gas-generated stabs, which can be considered a corner-case of a corner-case. Work around these problem by using compiler-generated stabs in the test-case. Tested on x86_64-linux. gdb/testsuite/ChangeLog: 2021-08-22 Tom de Vries <tdevr...@suse.de> * gdb.dwarf2/dw2-ranges.exp: Use compiler-generated stabs. -- You are receiving this mail because: You are on the CC list for the bug.
