Re: [PATCH] auxv support



Would you be able to also knock up an "auxv.exp" test case?


Sure! That is, I'd be happy to try. Is there an especially good existing test case to take as the canonical template for a test such as this?

To be complete, a test should try a live process, try a real core file, and
also try making a core file with gcore and then seeing that it matches the
real process it was made from.  Can you point me to an example of a test
that elicits core dumps and examines them?


I'd start with corefile.exp, and then delete.  Alternatively:
http://sources.redhat.com/ml/gdb-patches/2004-01/msg00610.html
where I've parked my bigcore.exp test - it compares the output from the core file with that of the running program.

Roland, did you have any luck with this? bigcore.exp is now in the main repository so it's easy to find.
