tcp_retry_limit is installed as variable of an unsigned command:
add_setshow_uinteger_cmd ("connect-timeout", class_obscure,
&tcp_retry_limit, _("\
and I found no uses of the variable treating it as signed (like < 0
checks or some such).

PROBLEM:
The function linux_write_memory () in linux-low.c allocates a buffer
on the stack to hold a copy of the data to be written.
register PTRACE_XFER_TYPE *buffer = (PTRACE_XFER_TYPE *)
alloca (count * sizeof (PTRACE_XFER_TYPE));
"count" is the number of bytes to be written, rounded up to the
nearest multiple of sizeof (PTRACE_XFER_TYPE) and allowing for not
being an aligned address. The function later uses
buffer[0] = ptrace (PTRACE_PEEKTEXT, pid,
(PTRACE_ARG3_TYPE) (uintptr_t) addr, 0);
The problem is that this function can be called to write zero bytes on
an aligned address, for example when receiving an X packet of length 0
(used to test if 8-bit write is supported). Under these circumstances,
count can be zero.
Since in this case, buffer[0] may never have been allocated, the stack
is corrupted and gdbserver may crash.
SOLUTION:
Writing zero bytes should always succeed. The patch below returns
successfully early if the length is zero, so avoiding the stack
corruption.
Verified on the ARC GDB 7.5.1 port.

* linux-low.c (linux_write_memory): Return early success if LEN is
zero.
The strlen in this function looked suspicious, for the function
documents that STR is in the target's charset (what if it is utf-32,
etc.).
On closer inspection, nothing is calling the function, and it's been
that way ever since the function was added.

The current tstatus.exp tests shows PASSes if either the target
support or not the optional tstatus bits:
PASS: gdb.trace/tstatus.exp: tstatus does not report trace stop reason
PASS: gdb.trace/tstatus.exp: tstatus reports trace stop reason
The former (and any other similar case) should be UNSUPPORTED rather
than PASS. That'd make it much easier to spot actually problems with
the test (e.g., the one Yao's previous patch addressed), along with
regressions and progressions.
The "not supported" paths in tstatus.exp explicitly check for output
you'd get if the feature wasn't supported, so real unexpected failures
will still be caught as FAILs.
So now e.g., where we wanted to check if tstatus reports the trace
stop reason, and if the target does support it, we get
PASS: tstatus reports trace stop reason
if the target actually reports what we'd expect if the trace stop
reason isn't supported, we get:
UNSUPPORTED: tstatus reports trace stop reason
and if the target reports something else unexpected, we get:
FAIL: tstatus reports trace stop reason
That has the added bonus that the test string is always the same and
only the test results change (PASS/FAIL/UNSUPPORTED), which makes it
easier for testers see regressions, compared to the previous:
-PASS: gdb.trace/tstatus.exp: tstatus reports trace stop reason
+PASS: gdb.trace/tstatus.exp: tstatus does not report trace stop reason
which clearly easily goes by unnoticed, as evidenced by the existing
problem Yao's previous patch addressed.

Addresses, as most numbers in the RSP are hex encoded, with variable
length (that just means the width isn't specified, and there's no top

LLP64 targets.
