The debug prints inside linux-nat.c almost all have a prefix that
indicate in which function they are located. This prefix is an
abbreviation of the function name. For example, this print is in the
`linux_nat_post_attach_wait` function:
if (debug_linux_nat)
fprintf_unfiltered (gdb_stdlog,
"LNPAW: Attaching to a stopped process\n");
Over time, the code has changed, things were moved, and many of these
prefixes are not accurate anymore. Also, unless you know the
linux-nat.c file by heart, it's a bit cryptic what LLR, LNW, RSRL, etc,
all mean.
To address both of these issues, I suggest adding this macro for
printing debug statements, which automatically includes the function
name. It also includes the `[linux-nat]` prefix to clarify which part
of GDB printed this (I think that, ideally, all debug prints would
include such a tag).
The `__func__` magic symbol is used to get the function name.
Unfortunately, in the case of methods, it only contains the method name,
not the class name. So we'll get "wait", where I would have liked to
get "linux_nat_target::wait". But at least with the `[linux-nat]` tag
in the front, it's not really ambiguous.
I've made the macro automatically include the trailing newline, because
it wouldn't make sense to call it twice to print two parts of one line,
the `[linux-nat]` tag would be printed in the middle.
An advantage of this (IMO) is that it's less verbose, we don't have to
check for `if (debug_linux_nat)` everywhere.
Another advantage is that it's easier to customize the output later,
without having to touch all call sites.
Here's an example of what it looks like in the end:
[linux-nat] linux_nat_wait_1: enter
[linux-nat] wait: [process -1], [TARGET_WNOHANG]
gdb/ChangeLog:
* linux-nat.c (linux_nat_debug_printf): New function.
(linux_nat_debug_printf_1): New macro. Use throughout the file.

README for GNU development tools This directory contains various GNU compilers, assemblers, linkers, debuggers, etc., plus their support routines, definitions, and documentation. If you are receiving this as part of a GDB release, see the file gdb/README. If with a binutils release, see binutils/README; if with a libg++ release, see libg++/README, etc. That'll give you info about this package -- supported targets, how to use it, how to report bugs, etc. It is now possible to automatically configure and build a variety of tools with one command. To build all of the tools contained herein, run the ``configure'' script here, e.g.: ./configure make To install them (by default in /usr/local/bin, /usr/local/lib, etc), then do: make install (If the configure script can't determine your type of computer, give it the name as an argument, for instance ``./configure sun4''. You can use the script ``config.sub'' to test whether a name is recognized; if it is, config.sub translates it to a triplet specifying CPU, vendor, and OS.) If you have more than one compiler on your system, it is often best to explicitly set CC in the environment before running configure, and to also set CC when running make. For example (assuming sh/bash/ksh): CC=gcc ./configure make A similar example using csh: setenv CC gcc ./configure make Much of the code and documentation enclosed is copyright by the Free Software Foundation, Inc. See the file COPYING or COPYING.LIB in the various directories, for a description of the GNU General Public License terms under which you can copy the files. REPORTING BUGS: Again, see gdb/README, binutils/README, etc., for info on where and how to report problems.
