Bug ID: 22619
Summary: repeat count is forgotten by newline to extend
previous 'x' command (examine memory)
Product: gdb
Version: HEAD
Status: UNCONFIRMED
Severity: normal
Priority: P2
Component: gdb
Assignee: unassigned at sourceware dot org
Reporter: jreiser at BitWagon dot com
Target Milestone: ---
The command sequence
(gdb) x/12xw $sp
(gdb) ## newline to show the next 12 words
forgets the repeat count "12"; it displays only one word instead of the
expected 12.
Example:
$ gdb hello
GNU gdb (GNU gdb (GDB) 8.0.50.20171216-git
<<snip>>
(gdb) b main
(gdb) run
Breakpoint 1, main (argc=0x1, argv=0xbefff454) at hello.c:5
(gdb) x/12xw $sp
0xbefff2e8: 0x00010460 0x00000000 0xbefff454 0x00000001
0xbefff2f8: 0x00000000 0x00000000 0x00000000 0xb6e63c40
0xbefff308: 0xb6fb5000 0xbefff454 0x00000001 0x00010404
(gdb) ## type <Enter> or <Return> to ask for the next 12 words
0xbefff318: 0x9fea1ea9 ## only one (1) word shown instead of twelve (12)
(gdb)
