v1: https://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/qemu-devel/2023-05/msg02614.html
v1 -> v2: Reword the 5/6 commit message (Dominik).
          Add R-bs.
          Patches that need review:
          4/6 gdbstub: Add support for info proc mappings
          6/6 tests/tcg: Add a test for info proc mappings

Hi,

this series partially implements the Host I/O feature of the GDB Remote
Serial Protocol in order to make generate-core-file work with qemu-user.
It borrows heavily from the abandoned patch by Dominik [1], hence 4/6
carries the respective Co-developed-by: tag. I hope that's okay. I also
peeked at gdbserver/hostio.cc quite a few times.

The changes compared to Dominik's patch are:

- Implement readlink.
- Move the main functionality to user-target.c.
- Allocate buffers on heap.
- Add a test.
- Update gdb.rst.
- Split refactorings to the existing code into separate patches.
- Rename do_openat() to do_guest_openat().
- Do not retry pread(), since GDB is capable of doing it itself.
- Add an extra sanity check to gdb_handle_query_xfer_exec_file().
- Replace citations of the spec by a single link.

Best regards,
Ilya
