[DNX#2006033142000301] [U-Boot-Users] [PATCH] - request to change default [...]

[DENX Support System]

Hello list,

inside the automatic U-Boot patch tracking system a new ticket
[DNX#2006033142000301] was created:

<snip>
> The default for the C portion of the u-boot compile is set to dwarf-2
> because the -g option for gcc 3.x defaults to dwarf-2, but the assembly
> portion is not.  
> 
> If possible, I would like to see the debug formats made consistent so as
> to allow the debugger to more reliably step through assembly source with
> gdb and other debuggers with the more modern dwarf2 debug format.  I
> have tested this change with gcc 3.4.3 on Arm9, MPC82xx, PPC85xx, PPC
> 40x and PPC 44x.  I also tested with ELDK 3.1.1 on all the PPC archs and
> it works quite well.
