gdb 8.1.1 is a minor bug fix release for 8.1. Some of the issues fixed in 8.1.1 are already fixed in the branch update in 8.1-0ubuntu3:
* gdb 8.1.1 release.
This is a minor corrective release over GDB 8.1, fixing following issues:
- PR gdb/23028 (inconsistent disassemble of vcvtpd2dq)
- PR gdb/23053 (Fix -D_GLIBCXX_DEBUG gdb-add-index regression)
- PR gdb/23127 ([AArch64] GDB cannot be used for debugging software that
uses high Virtual Addresses)
- PR server/23158 (gdbserver no longer functional on Windows)
- PR breakpoints/23210 ([8.1/8.2 Regression] Bogus Breakpoint address
adjusted from 0xf7fe7dd3 to 0xfffffffff7fe7dd3)
Already fixed in 8.1-0ubuntu3:
- PR gdb/22824 (misleading description of new rbreak Python function in
GDB 8.1 NEWS file)
- PR gdb/22849 (ctrl-c doesn't work in extended-remote)
- PR gdb/22907 ([Regression] gdbserver doesn't work with filename-only
binaries).
* Allow remote debugging over a Unix local domain socket. LP: #1901026.
This minor version update fixes four upstream issues (not counting the Windows specific issue), plus allows remote debugging over a Unix local domain socket., a patch taken from the 8.2 development.
Validation: The tests run during build time are passing, and the remote debugging is checked to be working (no automated test case).
