FreeBSD systems have provided these functions in libutil since 7.1 release. The most recent release without support is 6.4 released in November of 2008. This also requires libutil-freebsd on GNU/kFreeBSD systems. I assume that those systems have supported kinfo_get_file and kinfo_get_vmmap over a similar timeframe. gdb/ChangeLog: * configure.ac: Remove check for kinfo_getvmmap(). * configure, config.in: Regenerate. * fbsd-nat.c (fbsd_read_mapping): Remove (fbsd_nat_target::find_memory_regions): Remove the procfs version. (fbsd_nat_target::info_proc): Assume kinfo_getfile() and kinfo_get_vmmap() are always present. gdbsupport/ChangeLog: * common.m4 (GDB_AC_COMMON): Refactor checks for kinfo_getfile(). * configure, config.in: Regenerate.
This is a helper library that is used by gdb and gdbserver. To send patches, follow the gdb patch submission instructions in ../gdb/CONTRIBUTE. For maintainers, see ../gdb/MAINTAINERS.
