RDI over ethernet failure message

RDI over ethernet failure message

[Shaun Jackman]

The RDI over ethernet failure message should be a little more user friendly.
Also, it shouldn't exit gdb if it's unable to connect.

GNU gdb 5.0
[clip]
This GDB was configured as "--host=i586-pc-linux-gnu --target=arm-elf"...
(gdb) ta rdi e=192.168.1.99
Fatal error: ethernet send failure [Invalid argument]
[gdb exits]


The serial RDI message makes a lot more sense.

GNU gdb 5.0
[clip]
This GDB was configured as "--host=i586-pc-linux-gnu --target=arm-elf"...
(gdb) ta rdi /dev/ttyS0
RDI_open: undefined error message, should reset target
RID_open failed
(gdb)

Ordinarily you have to CC the `-gnats' address to get the message in
the PR.  Unfortunately sometimes Gnats sends out a message to (eg)
gdb-prs@... and then if you reply to all you don't CC gdb-gnats.

Shaun,

I don't have any hardware that talks RDI over Ethernet arounf here,
so I cannot reproduce the situation nor test any changes.

Won't you consider submitting a patch yourself?

Regards,
Fernando

I'd be more than happy to. I've never contributed to a GNU project
before though. Could you point me to a "new contributors" faq?
Is it reasonable to diff against gdb-5.0 or do I need go to CVS?

Cheers,
Shaun

I believe if you go to the gdb page at  sources.redhat.com
you'll find that information on how to contribute there.
But maybe if you look at the archives of this list (same web site)
you'll figure most of it.

As you probably going to send a very small patch for a bug fix an
assignment to FSF will not be necessary, but if you ever think of
contributing with a new feature or more substantial changes then
you'll have to go through that step.

Note that the code in the subdirectory rdi-share is not formatted 
accordingly to GNU standards.  The reason is that this code was 
given to gdb by ARM which was supposed to keep it updated (we never
received any updates though, and we started to fix it ourselves).
But if you need to fix things in remote-rdi.c please follow the 
coding style (looking at the code in the file may be enough).

By all means, send a diff against 5.0.  I will help you merge it into
the current sources.

Thanks for the offer to help.

Fernando

Ok.  I have gotten some negative feedback on this, so I will abandon the
idea unless there is a public outcry for me to do this.

I do encourage everyone to subscribe to gdb-prs, though:

gdb-prs-subscribe@sources.redhat.com

The database now has what looks like an actual bug in it.
