Subject: [PATCH] GDB: Fix detection of ELF support when configuring with -Werror
Date: Wed, 11 Nov 2020 09:20:21 +0000 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20201111092021.5428-1-Alexander.Richardson@cl.cam.ac.uk> (raw)
I was getting "I'm sorry, Dave, I can't do that. Symbol format `elf64-littleriscv' unknown."
errors after updating from GDB 8.3 to 10. Bisecting showed that since
commit 1ff6de031241c59d0ff9fa01d3c0a4049b0e97c9, bfd.h depends on strncmp()
being present, so configuring with -Werror results in the check for ELF
support in BFD failing:
.../gdb/gdb/../bfd/elf-bfd.h: In function 'bfd_section_is_ctf':
.../gdb/gdb/../bfd/elf-bfd.h:3086:10: error: implicit declaration of function 'strncmp' [-Werror=implicit-function-declaration]
return strncmp (name, ".ctf", 4) == 0 && (name[4] == 0 || name[4] == '.');
