# Progress #

o Upstream GDB
  * More patch reviewing and answering questions.

o GDB:
  * GNU-644 - [GDB, AArch64] gdb.base/step-over-syscalls.exp failures
- Managed to track this down all the way to the aarch64 single-stepping infrastructure in the kernel. Created reproduction steps and sent an e-mail to linux-arm-kernel - Also noticed a difference in the order in which SIGCHLD's are delivered between x86_64 and aarch64. This confused GDB, which expects the ordering it sees on x86_64. Working on a fix.

  * Tweaked QEMU setup a little for SVE testing

  * GNU-645 - gdbserver is not using SVE register descriptions properly
- Tracked down why gdbserver is not sending SVE register data back to GDB. Working on a fix.

  * GNU-170 - GDB BZ #21221 - gdb hangs while stepping an empty loop
    - On hold for now.
