Locate executables on remote stubs without multiprocess extensions
This commit allows GDB to determine filenames of main executables
when debugging using remote stubs without multiprocess extensions.
The qXfer:exec-file:read packet is extended to allow an empty
annex, with the meaning that the remote stub should supply the
filename of whatever it thinks is the current process.
gdb/ChangeLog:
* remote.c (remote_add_inferior): Call exec_file_locate_attach
for fake PIDs as well as real ones.
(remote_pid_to_exec_file): Send empty annex if PID is fake.
gdb/doc/ChangeLog:
* gdb.texinfo (General Query Packets): Document
qXfer:exec-file:read with empty annex.
gdb/gdbserver/ChangeLog:
* server.c (handle_qxfer_exec_file): Use current process
if annex is empty.
