[I made some typo fixes but forgot to amend my commit before sending the patch, hence this v2.] I see the following failure on Ubuntu 16.04's gcc 5.4.0: Running /home/emaisin/src/binutils-gdb/gdb/testsuite/gdb.python/py-unwind.exp ... FAIL: gdb.python/py-unwind.exp: continue to breakpoint: break backtrace-broken FAIL: gdb.python/py-unwind.exp: Backtrace restored by unwinder (pattern 1) The problem is that the test expects a very particular stack layout. When stack protection is enabled, it adds a canary value which looks like an additional local variable. This makes the test complain about a bad stack layout and fail. The simple solution is to disable stack protection for that test using -fno-stack-protector. I checked older compilers (gcc 4.4, clang 3.5) and they support that flag, so I don't think it's necessary to probe for whether the compiler supports it. Maybe a better solution would be to change the test to make it cope with different stack layouts (perhaps it could save addresses of stuff in some global variables which GDB/the unwinder would read). I'll go with the simple solution for now though. gdb/testsuite/ChangeLog: * gdb.python/py-unwind.exp: Disable stack protection when building test file.
