Nowadays, GDB calls target_can_download_tracepoint at the entry of
download_tracepoint_locations, which is called by.
update_global_location_list. Sometimes, it is not needed to call
target_can_download_tracepoint at all because there is no tracepoint
created. In remote target, target_can_download_tracepoint send
qTStatus to the remote in order to know whether tracepoint can be
downloaded or not. This means some redundant qTStatus packets are
sent.
This patch is to teach GDB to call target_can_download_tracepoint
lazily, only on the moment there are tracepoint to download.
gdb.perf/single-step.exp (with a local patch to measure RSP packets)
shows the number of RSP packets is reduced because there is no
tracepoint at all, so GDB doesn't send qTStatus any more.

* breakpoint.c (download_tracepoint_locations): New local
can_download_tracepoint. Check the result of
target_can_download_tracepoint and save it in
can_download_tracepoint if there are tracepoints to download.
* linux-nat.h (enum tribool): Move it to ...
* common/common-types.h: ... here.
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.
