Details

Summary

Older FreeBSD versions included GDB 6.1 and had other tools that were unable to handle debug information newer than DWARF 2. Those tools have since been updated. (An old version of GDB is still kept for kernel crash handling, but the kernel is compiled with an explicit -gdwarf2.)

Note that in FreeBSD I used < 13 for the version test but all of the prereq changes were made in advance of FreeBSD 12.0.

Is this testable as a driver test?
