Subject: [patch] Fix zero registers core files w/gcc-4.7
Hello H.J.,
there is a regression by:
commit 2c9c556617a7de8657c25b512d272c26b070ae22
Author: H.J. Lu <hjl.tools@gmail.com>
Date: Thu Jun 16 22:08:10 2011 +0000
Suport x32 gcore.
when built with -O2 by
gcc (GCC) 4.7.0 20111223 (experimental)
(not by 4.6.x)
as the code violates ISO C99 6.2.4 item 5 by using local variable outside of
its block, GCC optimizes out the second memcpy, keeping there only that
memset.
./gdb -nx ./gdb -ex start -ex 'gcore 1' -ex 'set confirm no' -ex q;gdb -nx ./gdb ./1 -ex q
will print:
Core was generated by `.../gdb/gdb'.
#0 0x0000000000000000 in ?? ()
No regressions on x86_64-fedora16-linux-gnu.
Probably obvious, OK to check it in?
Thanks,
Jan

Fix zero registers core files when built by gcc-4.7.
* elf64-x86-64.c (elf_x86_64_write_core_note): Remove variables p and
size. Call elfcore_write_note for the local variables. Remove the
final elfcore_write_note call. Add NOTREACHED comments.
