Re: Ping Re: [PATCH v1] PowerPC: Add NT_PPC_DMR core file support
Abhay Kandpal is following up on a patch that adds support for the NT_PPC_DMR note type in core files for PowerPC. This new note type will carry the contents of Dense Math Registers (DMR) for a future PowerPC processor. The patch includes modifications to BFD and readelf to handle this new information, with GDB support planned as a follow-up.
