GDB Maintainers GDB Steering Committee The members of the GDB Steering Committee are the FSF-appointed maintainers of the GDB project. Jim Blandy (Red Hat) Andrew Cagney (Red Hat) Robert Dewar (AdaCore, NYU) Klee Dienes (Apple) Paul Hilfinger (UC Berkeley) Dan Jacobowitz (CodeSourcery) Stan Shebs (Apple) Richard Stallman (FSF) Ian Lance Taylor (C2) Todd Whitesel Global Maintainers (alphabetic) Jim Blandy jimb@redhat.com Kevin Buettner kevinb@redhat.com Andrew Cagney cagney@gnu.org J.T. Conklin jtc@acorntoolworks.com Fred Fish fnf@ninemoons.com Daniel Jacobowitz dan@debian.org Mark Kettenis kettenis@gnu.org Peter Schauer Peter.Schauer@regent.e-technik.tu-muenchen.de Stan Shebs shebs@apple.com Michael Snyder msnyder@redhat.com Elena Zannoni ezannoni@redhat.com Eli Zaretskii eliz@gnu.org Various Maintainers Note individuals who maintain parts of the debugger need approval to check in changes outside of the immediate domain that they maintain. If there is no maintainer for a given domain then the responsibility falls to a global maintainer. If there are several maintainers for a given domain then responsibility falls to the first maintainer. The first maintainer is free to devolve that responsibility among the other maintainers. The Obvious Fix Rule All maintainers listed in this file are allowed to check in obvious fixes. An "obvious fix" means that there is no possibility that anyone will disagree with the change. A good mental test is "will the person who hates my work the most be able to find fault with the change" - if so, then it's not obvious and needs to be posted first. :-) Something like changing or bypassing an interface is _not_ an obvious fix, since such a change without discussion will result in instantaneous and loud complaints. Can Commit Without Approval (alphabetic) The following developers CAN COMMIT changes (and hence approve patches) to specific sections of GDB: Andrew Cagney (powerpc, powerpc-linux) Hans-Peter Nilsson (cris) Jeff Johnston (ia64) Joel Brobecker (mips) Kei Sakamoto (m32r) Kevin Buettner (powerpc) Orjan Friberg (cris) Randolph Chung (pa) Ulrich Weigand (s390) Target Instruction Set Architectures: The *-tdep.c files. ISA (Instruction Set Architecture) and OS-ABI (Operating System / Application Binary Interface) issues including CPU variants. The Target/Architecture maintainer works with the host maintainer when resolving build issues. The Target/Architecture maintainer works with the native maintainer when resolving ABI issues. alpha --target=alpha-elf ,-Werror arm --target=arm-elf ,-Werror Scott Bambrough scottb@netwinder.org Richard Earnshaw rearnsha@arm.com avr --target=avr ,-Werror Theodore A.

The Bourne shell script gdb_mbuild.sh can be used to rebuild all the above targets. Host/Native: The Native maintainer is responsible for target specific native support - typically shared libraries and quirks to procfs/ptrace/... The Native maintainer works with the Arch and Core maintainers when resolving more generic problems. The host maintainer ensures that gdb can be built as a cross debugger on their platform.
