We already don't bother doing that for userland, so I think I'd rather us just drop the option and fix ctfconvert once there is a need. -- John Baldwin ___ svn-src-all@freebsd.org mailing list https://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/svn-src-all To unsubscribe, send any mail to "svn-src-all-unsubscr...@freebsd.org"

Yes, soon. We probably need to change it to explicit -gdwarf-4 (not just remove it and rely on the compiler's default) as we'll see DWARF5 by default before long and will need to update ctfconvert again. ___ svn-src-all@freebsd.org mailing list https://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/svn-src-all To unsubscribe, send any mail to "svn-src-all-unsubscr...@freebsd.org"

cddl/contrib/opensolaris/tools/ctf/cvt/dwarf.c:1964-1968:
debug(1, "DWARF version: %d\n", vers);
if (vers < 2 || vers > 4) {
terminate("file contains incompatible version %d DWARF code "
"(version 2, 3 or 4 required)\n", vers);
}
(since r261025)
Though that doesn't mean it works...

New Revision: 368667

Log:
Retire obsolete GDB 6.1.1
GDB 6.1.1 was released in June 2004 and is long obsolete. It does not
support all of the architectures that FreeBSD does, and imposes
limitations on the FreeBSD kernel build, such as the continued use of
DWARF2 debugging information.
It was kept (in /usr/libexec/) only for use by crashinfo(8), which
extracts some basic information from a kernel core dump after a crash.
Crashinfo already prefers gdb from port/package if installed.
Future work may add kernel debug support to LLDB or find another path
for crashinfo's needs, but in any case we do not want to ship the
excessively outdated GDB in FreeBSD 13.
