GDB Maintainers
Blanket Write Privs
(alphabetic)
Jim Blandy jimb@redhat.com
Andrew Cagney ac131313@redhat.com
J.T. Conklin jtc@redback.com
Fred Fish fnf@ninemoons.com
Mark Kettenis kettenis@gnu.org

Various Maintainers
Note individuals who maintain parts of the debugger need approval to
check in changes outside of the immediate domain that they maintain.
If there is no maintainer for a given domain then the responsibility
falls to the head maintainer.
If there are several maintainers for a given domain then
responsibility falls to the first maintainer. The first maintainer is
free to devolve that responsibility among the other maintainers.
The Obvious Fix Rule
All maintainers listed in this file are allowed to check in obvious
fixes.
An "obvious fix" means that there is no possibility that anyone will
disagree with the change.
A good mental test is "will the person who hates my work the most be
able to find fault with the change" - if so, then it's not obvious and
needs to be posted first. :-)
Something like changing or bypassing an interface is _not_ an obvious
fix, since such a change without discussion will result in
instantaneous and loud complaints.
Target/Architecture:
Generic ISA (Instruction Set Architecture) issues, API variants, CPU
variants. *-tdep.c. The Target/Architecture maintainer works with the
host maintainer when resolving build issues. The Target/Architecture
maintainer works with the native maintainer when resolving API issues.

All developers recognized by this file can make arbitrary changes to
OBSOLETE targets.
All maintainers can test and thence approve non-trivial changes to
``maintenance only'' targets submitted by recognized developers.
All recognized developers can make mechanical changes (by virtue of
the obvious fix rule) to ``maintenance only'' targets. The change
shall be sanity checked by compiling with one of the listed targets.
The GAWK segment:
awk < "${maintainers}" '
$2 ~ /--target=.*/ {
targets = gensub (/^.*--target=/, "", 1, $2)
warnings = gensub (/[)]*$/, "", 1, $3)
split (targets, targ, /,/)
for (i in targ) {
print targ[i], warnings
}
}'
can be used to generate a full list of --target=
--enable-gdb-build-warning= pairs.
Host/Native:
The Native maintainer is responsible for target specific native
support - typically shared libraries and quirks to procfs/ptrace/...
The Native maintainer works with the Arch and Core maintainers when
resolving more generic problems.
The host maintainer ensures that gdb (including mmalloc) can be built
as a cross debugger on their platform.
