Oh dear. I regret to inform you that commit de52b9607d2623f18b7a7dbee3e1123d8d63f5da might be unfortunate

Hey Joel,

I'm still seeing a breakage here on x86-64 Fedora GNU/Linux, when
building gdbserver:

  ../../../binutils-gdb/gdb/gdbserver/linux-x86-tdesc.c: In function ‘const target_desc* amd64_linux_read_description(uint64_t, bool)’:
  ../../../binutils-gdb/gdb/gdbserver/linux-x86-tdesc.c:121:67: error: too few arguments to function ‘target_desc* amd64_create_target_description(uint64_t, bool, bool, bool)’
         *tdesc = amd64_create_target_description (xcr0, is_x32, true);
                                                                     ^
  In file included from ../../../binutils-gdb/gdb/gdbserver/linux-x86-tdesc.c:26:0:
  ../../../binutils-gdb/gdb/gdbserver/../arch/amd64.h:21:14: note: declared here
   target_desc *amd64_create_target_description (uint64_t xcr0, bool is_x32,
                ^~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Does the patch below make sense?  It fixes the breakage for me.

Thanks,

Thanks for looking into it and the patch!

I think the parameter should be set to "true". Otherwise, it will
not include the fs_base and gs_base register in the list of registers.
Although the name of the source file says x86, the code itself is
protected by...

    #ifdef __x86_64__

... and is inside a function called amd64_linux_read_description.
I also verified that this file gets compiled on amd64-linux platforms.
See gdb/gdbserver/configure.srv:

  x86_64-*-linux*)      srv_regobj="$srv_amd64_linux_regobj $srv_i386_linux_regobj"

The last piece of confirmation is that setting the parameter to "true"
provides the behavior before the parameter was added; and the reason
for adding the parameter was to remove the {fs,gs}_base registers
from the list for Windows only.

Otherwise the rest (basically the ChangeLog) looks good.

Thanks again!

Ah, thanks for the explanation.  I should have investigated more before
sending the patch; I was doing something else and just wanted to make
GDB compile again.  Glad I sent it here for your review!

> Thanks again!

No, I thank you!

I pushed the patch with s/false/true/, and your name in the ChangeLog.
