# Progress #
* GDB 8.1 release.
8.1 branch is created. Fix GDB and GDBserver build failure in
release mode. Patches are posted.
Looking at several test fails caused by new GCC emitting multiple
line entries for the same line but with different columns, like,
i = 1; j = 2;
GDB can't step over the whole source line, and program stops at the
middle of the source line.
# Plan #
* GDB 8.1 release.
* Resume my pending patches on removing MAX_REGISTER_SIZE.

Hi,
I am using the following linaro toolchain and need to create a license
manifest in terms what are the packages are there, what license they use.
https://releases.linaro.org/components/toolchain/binaries/
5.2-2015.11-2/aarch64-linux-gnu/
I don't see any such manifest in the release archive nor in the toolchain
archive. If such manifest is available then would you please point me to it.

Merry Christmas and happy new year!
# Progress #
* GDB 8.1 release. [2/10]
Triage regressions on aarch64 and arm.
* PR 21698. [3/10]
During the patch review, I doubt the patch fixes an invalid
python use in gdb. The GDB doc is quite unclear on how
that python api should be used. Ask the python api owner to
clarify.
* Misc, [5/10]
Two days travel to Manchester.
# Plan #
* GDB 8.1 release. Fix regressions.
