- Subject: DW_OP_piece coming in gcc 3.4
I'm getting this with gcc-3_4-branch -gdwarf-2:
(gdb) PASS: gdb.base/store.exp: up print old l - longest
print r^M
Unhandled dwarf expression opcode 0x93^M
(gdb) FAIL: gdb.base/store.exp: up print old r - longest
We need a strategic decision:
(1) Implement DW_OP_piece in time for gdb 6.1.
(2) Ask gcc to not emit DW_OP_piece in gcc 3.4.
(3) File a PR (or tag onto PR gdb/1312 but that's not really right),
KFAIL the tests, add a note to PROBLEMS.
I don't know which strategy is good for gdb.
What will it be?
