Subject: Patch to enable a fully working gdb for GNU/Hurd
Date: Wed, 29 Jun 2011 17:14:00 -0000	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <1309367642.3172.82.camel@s1499.it.kth.se> (raw)

Dear list,

Here is an attempt to create a complete patch for gdb to make it run
successfully on GNU/Hurd.

Problem description:
When starting gdb the following output is written:
Can't fetch registers from thread bogus thread id 1: No such thread

This makes gdb completely unusable for debugging purposes without this
patch.

Patch size: Small change

ChangeLog:
gdb/
2011-06-29 Svante Signell <svante.signell@telia.com> 

 * gnu_nat.c: Activate prune_threads() for Hurd
 * thread.c: Make prune_threads() visible outside current scope.
 * gdbthread.h: Declare prune_threads()
 * Fix PR gdb/12222
