  16 # Set a breakpoint on libc's _exit, and verify that it triggers.  The function
  17 # tends to do a syscall immediately after the prologue, and if the breakpoint is
  18 # set past the syscall due to faulty prologue skipping, the breakpoint will not
  19 # trigger.
  20 #
  21 # In particular, we're trying to excercise the instruction analysis
  22 # functionality of prologue skipping.  If the non-minimal symbols are
  23 # read for libc, then that functionality might not be used because f.i.
  24 # line-info is used instead.  Also, if the minimal symbols are not read
  25 # for libc, then the breakpoint is set on the exec-local _exit@plt instead,
  26 # and that functionality will also not be used.
  27 #
  28 # We may get the required setup in case of a libc with misssing separate
  29 # debuginfo, but we want the same effect if that debuginfo is installed.
  30 #
  31 # So, we use -readnever to read minimal symbols, but not non-miminal symbols.
  32 #
  33 # Because the code at _exit may be and usually is optimized, the test is in
  34 # the gdb.opt directory.
