[patch 11/15] PIE: testsuite: Make a proc to find a core


Hi,

this change should have no functionality impact; just the core file now
"gdb.base/corefile" is then placed as "gdb.base/coremaker.core".

As finding the core file is difficult across platforms and was already present
in the sources I moved it into lib/gdb.exp to make it reusable by later patch.

(It can now in one case do "mv gdb.base/coremaker.core gdb.base/coremaker.core",
I find it OK.)


Thanks,
Jan


gdb/testsuite/
	* gdb.base/corefile.exp: Move the core finding block out and call it as
	core_find, new variable $corefile, replace corefile by $corefile and
	[file tail $corefile] for usage vs. test names resp.
	* lib/gdb.exp (core_find): Move it as a new function here.  New
	parameter binfile and deletefiles.  New variable $destcore.  Pre-delete
	$destcore.  Return "" on error.
