Delete remote VxWorks RDB support?


Hello,

I found this gem, added 10-May-01, in gdb/TODO:

Obsolete the protocols:

RDB?

``As of version 5.3, WindRiver has removed the RDB server (RDB
protocol support is built into gdb).''  -- Till.

See: WDB support for the vxWorks target http://sources.redhat.com/ml/gdb/2001-05/msg00041.html

It would affect the files:

cagney@nettle$ ls *vx*
remote-vx.c         remote-vx68.c       remote-vxmips.c     remote-vxsparc.c
vx-share:
CVS          ptrace.h     vxWorks.h    xdr_ld.h     xdr_rdb.c
README       regPacket.h  wait.h       xdr_ptrace.c xdr_rdb.h
dbgRpcLib.h  vxTypes.h    xdr_ld.c     xdr_ptrace.h

Only thing is, there have been recent bug reports (against 5.1.1 mind):
http://sources.redhat.com/cgi-bin/gnatsweb.pl?cmd=view%20audit-trail&database=gdb&pr=329

The current code, which is heavily dependant on deprecated_registers[], needs a serious upgrade.

Andrew
