Files specified with a "target:" prefix will be loaded via the target: from the remote if the target is remote, and from the local file system otherwise. This new prefix replaces the "remote:" prefix, and the final patch in the series makes it the default. The way the "target:" prefix is implemented differs somewhat from the way the "remote:" prefix was implemented: - It's hooked in at a lower level. The remote stuff looked to have been added piecemeal: various BFD-opening functions did checks on their filenames and diverted to remote_bfd_open. There was also gdb_bfd_open_maybe_remote, which handled both local and remote cases. The "target:" prefix is baked into gdb_bfd_open, so all functions that open BFDs gain support. - Various functions locally strip the "target:" prefix from the filenames they're working on if the target filesystem is the same as the local filesystem. This serves two purposes: 1) It ensures files accessed locally are handled the same way regardless of how they are specified. Things like the shared library search algorithm in solib_find, for example. 2) It avoids cluttering GDB's output with "target:" prefixes. Built and regtested on RHEL 6.6 x86_64. Ok to commit?
