Here is the list of issues identified as blocking for 8.1 release: * [Pedro] gdb/22583 gdb.base/breakpoint-in-ro-region.exp regressions on software single-step tar gets * [Maciej] remote/22597 Empty `qsThreadInfo' reply handling regression causing inability to execute I'm trying to understand whether this is specific to mips or more general. And whether this only affects GDB when debugging with older stubs or whether it affects us more generally. Depending on the answer, the issue might not be so severe as to hold the release. Maciej - can you tell where we are on this issue, and whether you think it really is blocking for 8.1? * [Pedro/Joel] gdb/22670 regressions in Ada caused by introduction of wild matching in C++ patch series Pedro has a fix for all the issues identified so far. On my end, I have gone through most of the failures I see using the AdaCore testsuite, with 5 left to go. Intuitively, I think we're through, but I'll have confirmation by end of this week. * [TomT] no PR yet Regression on 32-bit: gdb.guile/scm-ports.exp [Re: [RFA 1/2] Fix two regress ions in scalar printing https://sourceware.org/ml/gdb-patches/2017-12/msg00215.html Tom posted a patch which was recently approved. So it's a matter of pushing it, and backporting it. * [SimonM] no PR yet hurd: Add enough auxv support for AT_ENTRY for PIE binaries Patch looks good to Simon. Just needs to be pushed, or else backported if not pushed before branching. Any progress on this patch? Looking at the list, once we close gdb/22670, I think we can make our first pre-release, but please let me know if you believe some of those issues above are critical enough that a pre-release would not be useful yet. Thanks! -- Joel
