Hi Tao,

Thanks for sending the series.

Maybe you missed CCing people ?
Yeah, I will get it fixed in v3.
Sure.

      
Also this patch's 'author' line is missing, maybe while editing the
commit it messed up ?

I didn't get it clear, where is the 'author' line? Could you give me
an example, maybe show me the 'author' line which is valid in another
patch?

I meant, the 'Author' of this commit changed, if you notice patch #1, #8.

It has a line on top of the patch:

"From: Aditya Gupta <adityag@xxxxxxxxxxxxx>"

This is not there in patch #6. Whenever the commit's author is different than the mail sender, git format-patch will add this line, and when this patch series is merged, git will take the 'From' here as the author.

If you see in your git log of the branch, it will show you as author. This would have happened due to editing, resetting the change, commiting it again, somewhere the Author field got changed automatically.


      
I will proceed with testing the series, might do it later, currently my
mails got messed up, I got some mails in Inbox (those patches with me in
Cc), and others in my crash-utility folder (those with Cc: crash-utility).

Could you please check the
https://github.com/liutgnu/crash-dev/commits/tao-rebase-v4? This may
be better for testing.

Sure, I will test that Tao.


Thanks,

Aditya Gupta

Currently for most gdb_interface call, in which a non-null file pointer
is passed, GDB's output stream is replaced with the passed file pointer

Due to this, 'info threads', which is a gdb passthrough, doesn't print any
thread, after support was added to get registers from crash_target:

     crash> info threads
       Id   Target Id         Frame

This empty output of 'info threads' was due to a subtle bug in
gdb_interface.

After this gdb passthrough is run, 'datatype_info' is called, with file
pointer set to null_fp (pointing to /dev/null). And after
'datatype_info' returns, any output by gdb goes to /dev/null, and hence
the output is lost.

Fix this by restoring the original output streams, after gdb_interface
has handled the output

After this patch:

     crash> info threads
       Id   Target Id         Frame
