Joel> - 11 patches that no longer apply ("Merge Conflict") :-( This is actually the normal state due to ChangeLog files. I just ignore that column. Joel> - [Tom DV] Prefer var def over decl Joel> https://sourceware.org/ml/gdb-patches/2019-09/msg00161.html Joel> Gerrit: https://gnutoolchain-gerrit.osci.io/r/c/binutils-gdb/+/29 Joel> Tom T said the patch is reasonable, but was wondering whether Joel> we shouldn't even be in that situation in the first place, if Joel> we were to not create symbols for declarations... This lead to Joel> a different patch, but after discussion, we propose the original Joel> patch for trunk to start, and then discuss the alternative Joel> approach after 9.x branching. Joel is double-checking with Joel> TomT that this is OK with him as well. I will look at this either today or tomorrow. Joel> - [Christian B] The threaded symbol loading that tromey Christian have been working on Joel> Gerrit: https://gnutoolchain-gerrit.osci.io/r/q/topic:%22minsyms-threads%22+(status:open%20OR%20status:merged) Joel> This patchset was identified as a risk for inclusion so close Joel> to branching, due to the use of threads for parallelizing Joel> the load of minsyms. However, considering the potentially massive Joel> gains to be had on large programs, the consensus was to allow Joel> this patch under the control of a setting, off by default; and Joel> then remove that setting once we've branched. I must have missed this discussion. I saw Christian had a patch to do this, but I think maybe it can be done more simply... I will investigate. Joel> - [TomT] Fix the "winheight" command Joel> https://gnutoolchain-gerrit.osci.io/r/c/binutils-gdb/+/371 Joel> Fixes a regression. Joel> Tom says it can be backported after branching if needed. I'll send a smaller version of this that doesn't involve rewriting all of the TUI layout code. Joel> - [TomT] Handle pending stops from the Windows kernel Joel> Gerrit: https://gnutoolchain-gerrit.osci.io/r/c/binutils-gdb/+/414 Joel> - [TomT] Add pending stop support to gdbserver's Windows port Joel> Gerrit: https://gnutoolchain-gerrit.osci.io/r/c/binutils-gdb/+/432 Joel> Fixes an internal-error. These two are the same series, I'm re-investigating now. Tom
