From 07d28c777757148d13e429c4463da52cbb50d297 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Simon Marchi Date: Mon, 16 Apr 2018 16:47:06 -0400 Subject: linux_spu_make_corefile_notes: return note_data instead of nullptr Since commit 9018be2 ("Make target_read_alloc & al return vectors") the test gdb.threads/gcore-stale-thread.exp test results in UNSUPPORTED: UNSUPPORTED: gdb.threads/gcore-stale-thread.exp: save a corefile The problem is that the linux_spu_make_corefile_notes started returning nullptr when reading TARGET_OBJECT_SPU fails. The previous (and proper) behaviour is to return the note_data received as a parameter, so that other functions may continue to append to this buffer. With this patch, the test goes back to PASS. gdb/ChangeLog: * linux-tdep.c (linux_spu_make_corefile_notes): Return note_data instead of nullptr. --- gdb/linux-tdep.c | 2 +- 1 file changed, 1 insertion(+), 1 deletion(-) (limited to 'gdb/linux-tdep.c') diff --git a/gdb/linux-tdep.c b/gdb/linux-tdep.c index 552a2a4..24bfd74 100644 --- a/gdb/linux-tdep.c +++ b/gdb/linux-tdep.c @@ -1426,7 +1426,7 @@ linux_spu_make_corefile_notes (bfd *obfd, char *note_data, int *note_size) spu_ids = target_read_alloc (¤t_target, TARGET_OBJECT_SPU, NULL); if (!spu_ids) - return nullptr; + return note_data; /* Generate corefile notes for each SPU file. */ for (size_t i = 0; i < spu_ids->size (); i += 4) -- cgit v1.1
