Paul Carroll 92ffd47519 Fix 'xfered>0' assertion in target.c for remote connection
We have a customer who is using a Corelis gdb server to connect to gdb.
Occasionally, the gdb server will send a 0-byte block of memory for a
read.  When this happens, gdb gives an assertion from target.c:

internal-error: target_xfer_partial: Assertion `*xfered_len > 0' failed.

This problem is almost identical to that fixed in
https://sourceware.org/ml/gdb-patches/2014-02/msg00636.html

In this case, remote.c needs to be modified to return TARGET_XFER_EOF
instead of TARGET_XFER_OK or TARGET_XFER_UNAVAILABLE when 0 bytes are
transferred.

gdb/ChangeLog:

	PR gdb/22388
	* remote.c (remote_write_bytes_aux, remote_read_bytes_1,
	remote_read_bytes, remote_write_qxfer, remote_xfer_partial):
	Return TARGET_XFER_EOF if size of returned data is 0.

		   README for GNU development tools

This directory contains various GNU compilers, assemblers, linkers, 
debuggers, etc., plus their support routines, definitions, and documentation.

If you are receiving this as part of a GDB release, see the file gdb/README.
If with a binutils release, see binutils/README;  if with a libg++ release,
see libg++/README, etc.  That'll give you info about this
package -- supported targets, how to use it, how to report bugs, etc.

It is now possible to automatically configure and build a variety of
tools with one command.  To build all of the tools contained herein,
run the ``configure'' script here, e.g.:

	./configure 
	make

To install them (by default in /usr/local/bin, /usr/local/lib, etc),
then do:
	make install

(If the configure script can't determine your type of computer, give it
the name as an argument, for instance ``./configure sun4''.  You can
use the script ``config.sub'' to test whether a name is recognized; if
it is, config.sub translates it to a triplet specifying CPU, vendor,
and OS.)

If you have more than one compiler on your system, it is often best to
explicitly set CC in the environment before running configure, and to
also set CC when running make.  For example (assuming sh/bash/ksh):

	CC=gcc ./configure
	make

A similar example using csh:

	setenv CC gcc
	./configure
	make

REPORTING BUGS: Again, see gdb/README, binutils/README, etc., for info
on where and how to report problems.
