Hi,

Checked in a patch to fix it.

Thanks,

Hui,

This sort of local declaration should *not* be used except under
special circumstances.  Declarations inside a .c, a fortiori inside
a subprogram, are a maintenance hazard, because the compiler can
not check for you that this declaration matches the actual definition.
In other words, if someone changes the function profile, and forgets
to update this call site, then you'll have a program that still
compiles without warning, but whose execution becomes undefined.

Another tiny detail is the fact that functions without arguments
should have a "void" parameter, as opposed to nothing. In other
words, replace:

    extern void reset_schedlock ();

by:

    extern void reset_schedlock (void);

Attached is a patch I just checked in to correct both issues.
I also improved the original patch in terms of the comments.

commit 59b929a962c497fdc4002817f65917966972a818
Author: Joel Brobecker <brobecker@adacore.com>
Date:   Sun May 16 22:25:53 2010 -0700

    Add reset_schedlock declaration in target.h.
    
    This patches improves a couple of previous patches:
      - one that introduces reset_schedlock, but failed to add a declarationl;
      - one that was checked in to avoid a compilation failure due to that
        missing declaration.
    It also improves the declaration itself to better conform to our coding
    practices.  Same for the comments.

            * target.h (reset_schedlock): Add declaration.
            * infrun.c (reset_schedlock): Add missing void in function profile.
            * target.c (target_mourn_inferior): Delete local declaration of
            reset_schedlock.  Style-fix in comment.
