This is a backported patch from gdb. Without the patch, the following crash command may abort due to an assertion failure in the gdb's copy_type(): crash> px __per_cpu_start:0 gdbtypes.c:5505: internal-error: type* copy_type(const type*): Assertion `TYPE_OBJFILE_OWNED (type)' failed. A problem internal to GDB has been detected, further debugging may prove unreliable. Quit this debugging session? (y or n) The gdb commit 8e2da1651879 ("Fix assertion failure in copy_type"), which solved the current issue.
