Subject: [PATCH 0/2] Use gdb_sysroot for main executable on attach
Date: Thu, 05 Mar 2015 11:37:00 -0000	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <1425555461-22093-1-git-send-email-gbenson@redhat.com> (raw)

Hi all,

This series modifies GDB to prefix the main executable's path with
gdb_sysroot under certain circumstances, namely:

 * The path supplied by target_pid_to_exec_file is absolute, and
 * gdb_sysroot is set and not remote.

This logic is skipped for remote gdb_sysroots because the subsequent
code does not support opening the main executable over the remote
protocol.  This is something I intend to rectify with future patches
but the ability to use gdb_sysroot like this is useful for attaching
to processes running in chroot jails and containerized environments
so I am submitting this series independently.

Built and regtested on RHEL 6.6 x86_64.

Ok to commit?

Thanks,
Gary
