Commit f99d1d37496f ("Remove gdb/testsuite/configure") removed
gdb/testsuite/configure, as anything gdb/testsuite/configure did could
be done by gdb/configure.
There is however one use case that popped up when this changed
propagated to downstream consumers, to run the testsuite on an already
built GDB. In the workflow of ROCm-GDB at AMD, a GDB package is built
in a CI job. This GDB package is then tested on different machines /
hardware configurations as part of other CI jobs. To achieve this,
those CI jobs only configure the testsuite directory and run "make
check" with an appropriate board file.
In light of this use case, the way I see it is that gdb/testsuite could
be considered its own project. It could be stored in a completely
different repo if we want to, it just happens to be stored inside gdb/.
Since the only downside of having gdb/testsuite/configure is that it
takes a few more seconds to run, but on the other hand it's quite useful
for some people, I propose re-adding it.
In a sense, this is revert of f99d1d37496f, but it's not a direct
git-revert, as some things have changed since.

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 Much of the code and documentation enclosed is copyright by the Free Software Foundation, Inc. See the file COPYING or COPYING.LIB in the various directories, for a description of the GNU General Public License terms under which you can copy the files. REPORTING BUGS: Again, see gdb/README, binutils/README, etc., for info on where and how to report problems.
