Add patch to fix typo for build on musl
GDB 13.1 includes the following changes and enhancements:
* Support for the following new targets has been added in both
GDB and GDBserver:
** GNU/Linux/LoongArch (gdbserver) loongarch*-*-linux*
** GNU/Linux/CSKY (gdbserver) csky*-*linux*
* The Windows native target now supports target async.
* FreeBSD:
** Arm and AArch64: Support for Thread Local Storage (TLS) variables
** Hardware watchpoint support on AArch64 FreeBSD
* Floating-point support has now been added on LoongArch GNU/Linux.
* New commands:
** set print nibbles [on|off]
show print nibbles
This controls whether the 'print/t' command will display binary values
in groups of four bits, known as "nibbles". The default is 'off'.
** Various styling-related commands. See the gdb/NEWS file for more
details (see link at the bottom).
** Various maintenance commands. These are normally aimed at GDB
experts or developers. See the gdb/NEWS file for more details
(see link at the bottom).
* Python API improvements:
** New Python API for instruction disassembly.
The new attribute 'locations' of gdb.Breakpoint returns a list of
gdb.BreakpointLocation objects specifying the locations where the
breakpoint is inserted into the debuggee.
** New Python type gdb.BreakpointLocation.
** New function gdb.format_address(ADDRESS, PROGSPACE, ARCHITECTURE)
that formats ADDRESS as 'address <symbol+offset>'
** New function gdb.current_language that returns the name of the
current language. Unlike gdb.parameter('language'), this will
never return 'auto'.
** New function gdb.print_options that returns a dictionary of the
prevailing print options, in the form accepted by gdb.Value.format_string.
** New method gdb.Frame.language that returns the name of the
frame's language.
** gdb.Value.format_string now uses the format provided by 'print',
if it is called during a 'print' or other similar operation.
** gdb.Value.format_string now accepts the 'summary' keyword. This
can be used to request a shorter representation of a value, the
way that 'set print frame-arguments scalars' does.
** The gdb.register_window_type method now restricts the set of
acceptable window names. The first character of a window's name
must start with a character in the set [a-zA-Z], every subsequent
character of a window's name must be in the set [-_.a-zA-Z0-9].
* GDB/MI changes:
** MI version 1 is deprecated, and will be removed in GDB 14.
** The async record stating the stopped reason 'breakpoint-hit' now
contains an optional field locno.
* Miscellaneous improvements:
** gdb now supports zstd compressed debug sections (ELFCOMPRESS_ZSTD) for ELF.
** New convenience variable $_inferior_thread_count contains the number
of live threads in the current inferior.
** New convenience variables $_hit_bpnum and $_hit_locno, set to
the breakpoint number and the breakpoint location number of
the breakpoint last hit.
** The "info breakpoints" now displays enabled breakpoint locations
of disabled breakpoints as in the "y-" state.
** The format of 'disassemble /r' and 'record instruction-history /r'
has changed to match the layout of GNU objdump when disassembling.
A new format "/b" has been introduce to provide the old behavior
of "/r".
** The TUI no longer styles the source and assembly code highlighted
by the current position indicator by default. You can however
re-enable styling using the new "set style tui-current-position"
command.
** It is now possible to use the "document" command to document
user-defined commands.
** Support for memory tag data for AArch64 MTE.
* Support Removal notices:
** DBX mode has been removed.
** Support for building against Python version 2 has been removed.
It is now only possible to build GDB against Python 3.
** Support for the following commands has been removed:
set debug aix-solib on|off
show debug aix-solib
set debug solib-frv on|off
show debug solib-frv
Use the "set/show debug solib" commands instead.
