15.1
changes and enhancements:
* Building GDB and GDBserver now requires a C++17 compiler (for instance,
GCC 9 or later).
* Enhanced Python support
** New function gdb.notify_mi(NAME, DATA), that emits custom
GDB/MI async notification.
** New read/write attribute gdb.Value.bytes that contains a bytes
object holding the contents of this value.
** New module gdb.missing_debug that facilitates dealing with
objfiles that are missing any debug information.
** New function gdb.missing_debug.register_handler that can register
an instance of a sub-class of gdb.missing_debug.MissingDebugInfo
as a handler for objfiles that are missing debug information.
** New class gdb.missing_debug.MissingDebugInfo which can be
sub-classed to create handlers for objfiles with missing debug
information.
** Stop events now have a "details" attribute that holds a
dictionary that carries the same information as an MI "*stopped"
event.
** New function gdb.interrupt(), that interrupts GDB as if the user
typed control-c.
** New gdb.InferiorThread.ptid_string attribute. This read-only
attribute contains the string that appears in the 'Target Id'
column of the 'info threads' command output.
** It is no longer possible to create new gdb.Progspace object using
'gdb.Progspace()', this will result in a TypeError. Progspace
objects can still be obtained through calling other API
functions, for example 'gdb.current_progspace()'.
** User defined attributes can be added to a gdb.Inferior object,
these will be stored in the object's new Inferior.__dict__
attribute.
** User defined attributes can be added to a gdb.InferiorThread
object, these will be stored in the object's new
InferiorThread.__dict__ attribute.
** New constants gdb.SYMBOL_TYPE_DOMAIN, gdb.SYMBOL_FUNCTION_DOMAIN,
and gdb.SEARCH_*_DOMAIN
* Debugger Adapter Protocol changes
** GDB now emits the "process" event.
** GDB now supports the "cancel" request.
** The "attach" request now supports specifying the program.
** New command "set debug dap-log-level" controls DAP logging.
* Remote protocol
** New stop reason: clone
** QThreadOptions in qSupported
** New remote packets: QThreadOptions, qIsAddressTagged
** New "set/show remote thread-options-packet" commands
* GDBserver
** The --remote-debug and --event-loop-debug command line options
have been removed.
** The --debug command line option now takes an optional comma
separated list of components to emit debug for. The currently
supported components are: all, threads, event-loop, and remote.
If no components are given then threads is assumed.
** The 'monitor set remote-debug' and 'monitor set event-loop-debug'
command have been removed.
** The 'monitor set debug 0|1' command has been extended to take a
component name, e.g.: 'monitor set debug COMPONENT off|on'.
Possible component names are: all, threads, event-loop, and
remote.
* Deprecated or removed
** The MPX commands "show/set mpx bound" have been deprecated, as Intel
listed MPX as removed in 2019.
* Miscellaneous
** Guile API: New constants SYMBOL_TYPE_DOMAIN, SYMBOL_FUNCTION_DOMAIN,
and SEARCH_*_DOMAIN
** New "set/show direct-call-timeout" commands.
** New "set/show indirect-call-timeout" commands.
** New "set/show unwind-on-timeout on|off" commands.
** New "set/show unwind-on-signal on|off" commands, renaming the old
"set/show unwindonsignal" commands. The old commands are maintained
as an alias.
** The "gcore" and "generate-core-file" commands now generates sparse
core files, on systems that support it.
** The "maintenance info line-table" command now includes a new
EPILOGUE-BEGIN column indicating the start of the function's epilogue.
** Simultaneous use of the 'r' and 'b' flags in the "disassemble" command
now triggers an error.
