+
+<p>Here is a summary of the <samp>configure</samp> options and arguments that
+are most often useful for building <small>GDB</small>. <samp>configure</samp>
+also has several other options not listed here. See <a href="http://www.gnu.org/software/autoconf/manual/html_node/Running-configure-Scripts.html#Running-configure-Scripts">(autoconf)Running
+configure Scripts</a>, for a full
+explanation of <samp>configure</samp>.

+<p>You may introduce options with a single &lsquo;<samp>-</samp>&rsquo; rather than

+<dt><code>--srcdir=<var>dirname</var></code></dt>
+<dd><p>Use this option to make configurations in directories separate from the
+<small>GDB</small> source directories. Among other things, you can use this to
+build (or maintain) several configurations simultaneously, in separate
+directories. <samp>configure</samp> writes configuration-specific files in
+the current directory, but arranges for them to use the source in the
+directory <var>dirname</var>. <samp>configure</samp> creates directories under
+the working directory in parallel to the source directories below
+<var>dirname</var>.
+</p>
+</dd>
+<dt><code>--target=<var>target</var></code></dt>
+<dd><p>Configure <small>GDB</small> for cross-debugging programs running on the specified
+<var>target</var>. Without this option, <small>GDB</small> is configured to debug
+programs that run on the same machine (<var>host</var>) as <small>GDB</small> itself.
+</p>
+<p>There is no convenient way to generate a list of all available
+targets. Also see the <code>--enable-targets</code> option, below.
+</p></dd>

+
+<p>There are many other options that are specific to <small>GDB</small>. This
+lists just the most common ones; there are some very specialized
+options not described here.

+<dl compact="compact">
+<dt><code>--enable-targets=<span class="roman">[</span><var>target</var><span class="roman">]</span>&hellip;</code></dt>
+<dt><code>--enable-targets=all</code></dt>
+<dd><p>Configure <small>GDB</small> for cross-debugging programs running on the
+specified list of targets. The special value &lsquo;<samp>all</samp>&rsquo; configures
+<small>GDB</small> for debugging programs running on any target it supports.
+</p>
+</dd>
+<dt><code>--with-gdb-datadir=<var>path</var></code></dt>
+<dd><p>Set the <small>GDB</small>-specific data directory. <small>GDB</small> will look
+here for certain supporting files or scripts. This defaults to the
+<samp>gdb</samp> subdirectory of &lsquo;<samp>datadir</samp>&rsquo; (which can be set using
+<code>--datadir</code>).
+</p>

+<dt><code>--with-relocated-sources=<var>dir</var></code></dt>
+<dd><p>Sets up the default source path substitution rule so that directory
+names recorded in debug information will be automatically adjusted for
+any directory under <var>dir</var>. <var>dir</var> should be a subdirectory of
+<small>GDB</small>&rsquo;s configured prefix, the one mentioned in the
+<code>--prefix</code> or <code>--exec-prefix</code> options to configure. This
+option is useful if GDB is supposed to be moved to a different place
+after it is built.
+</p>
+</dd>
+<dt><code>--enable-64-bit-bfd</code></dt>
+<dd><p>Enable 64-bit support in BFD on 32-bit hosts.
+</p>
+</dd>
+<dt><code>--disable-gdbmi</code></dt>
+<dd><p>Build <small>GDB</small> without the GDB/MI machine interface
+(see <a href="GDB_002fMI.html#GDB_002fMI">GDB/MI</a>).
+</p>
+</dd>
+<dt><code>--enable-tui</code></dt>
+<dd><p>Build <small>GDB</small> with the text-mode full-screen user interface
+(TUI). Requires a curses library (ncurses and cursesX are also
+supported).
+</p>
+</dd>
+<dt><code>--with-curses</code></dt>
+<dd><p>Use the curses library instead of the termcap library, for text-mode
+terminal operations.
+</p>
+</dd>
+<dt><code>--with-debuginfod</code></dt>
+<dd><p>Build <small>GDB</small> with <samp>libdebuginfod</samp>, the <code>debuginfod</code> client
+library. Used to automatically fetch ELF, DWARF and source files from
+<code>debuginfod</code> servers using build IDs associated with any missing
+files. Enabled by default if <samp>libdebuginfod</samp> is installed and found
+at configure time. For more information regarding <code>debuginfod</code> see
+<a href="Debuginfod.html#Debuginfod">Debuginfod</a>.
+</p>
+</dd>
+<dt><code>--with-libunwind-ia64</code></dt>
+<dd><p>Use the libunwind library for unwinding function call stack on ia64
+target platforms. See http://www.nongnu.org/libunwind/index.html for
+details.
+</p>
+</dd>
+<dt><code>--with-system-readline</code></dt>
+<dd><p>Use the readline library installed on the host, rather than the
+library supplied as part of <small>GDB</small>. Readline 7 or newer is
+required; this is enforced by the build system.
+</p>
+</dd>
+<dt><code>--with-system-zlib</code></dt>
+<dd><p>Use the zlib library installed on the host, rather than the library
+supplied as part of <small>GDB</small>.
+</p>
+</dd>
+<dt><code>--with-expat</code></dt>
+<dd><p>Build <small>GDB</small> with Expat, a library for XML parsing. (Done by
+default if libexpat is installed and found at configure time.) This
+library is used to read XML files supplied with <small>GDB</small>. If it
+is unavailable, some features, such as remote protocol memory maps,
+target descriptions, and shared library lists, that are based on XML
+files, will not be available in <small>GDB</small>. If your host does not
+have libexpat installed, you can get the latest version from
+&lsquo;http://expat.sourceforge.net&rsquo;.
+</p>
+</dd>
+<dt><code>--with-libiconv-prefix<span class="roman">[</span>=<var>dir</var><span class="roman">]</span></code></dt>
+<dd>
+<p>Build <small>GDB</small> with GNU libiconv, a character set encoding
+conversion library. This is not done by default, as on GNU systems
+the <code>iconv</code> that is built in to the C library is sufficient. If
+your host does not have a working <code>iconv</code>, you can get the latest
+version of GNU iconv from &lsquo;https://www.gnu.org/software/libiconv/&rsquo;.
+</p>
+<p><small>GDB</small>&rsquo;s build system also supports building GNU libiconv as
+part of the overall build. See <a href="Requirements.html#Requirements">Requirements</a>.
+</p>
+</dd>
+<dt><code>--with-lzma</code></dt>
+<dd><p>Build <small>GDB</small> with LZMA, a compression library. (Done by default
+if liblzma is installed and found at configure time.) LZMA is used by
+<small>GDB</small>&rsquo;s &quot;mini debuginfo&quot; feature, which is only useful on
+platforms using the ELF object file format. If your host does not
+have liblzma installed, you can get the latest version from
+&lsquo;https://tukaani.org/xz/&rsquo;.
+</p>
+</dd>
+<dt><code>--with-mpfr</code></dt>
+<dd><p>Build <small>GDB</small> with GNU MPFR, a library for multiple-precision
+floating-point computation with correct rounding. (Done by default if
+GNU MPFR is installed and found at configure time.) This library is
+used to emulate target floating-point arithmetic during expression
+evaluation when the target uses different floating-point formats than
+the host. If GNU MPFR is not available, <small>GDB</small> will fall back
+to using host floating-point arithmetic. If your host does not have
+GNU MPFR installed, you can get the latest version from
+&lsquo;http://www.mpfr.org&rsquo;.
+</p>
+</dd>
+<dt><code>--with-python<span class="roman">[</span>=<var>python</var><span class="roman">]</span></code></dt>
+<dd><p>Build <small>GDB</small> with Python scripting support. (Done by default if
+libpython is present and found at configure time.) Python makes
+<small>GDB</small> scripting much more powerful than the restricted CLI
+scripting language. If your host does not have Python installed, you
+can find it on &lsquo;http://www.python.org/download/&rsquo;. The oldest version
+of Python supported by GDB is 2.6. The optional argument <var>python</var>
+is used to find the Python headers and libraries. It can be either
+the name of a Python executable, or the name of the directory in which
+Python is installed.
+</p>
+</dd>
+<dt><code>--with-guile[=GUILE]'</code></dt>
+<dd><p>Build <small>GDB</small> with GNU Guile scripting support. (Done by default
+if libguile is present and found at configure time.) If your host
+does not have Guile installed, you can find it at
+&lsquo;https://www.gnu.org/software/guile/&rsquo;. The optional argument GUILE
+can be a version number, which will cause <code>configure</code> to try to
+use that version of Guile; or the file name of a <code>pkg-config</code>
+executable, which will be queried to find the information needed to
+compile and link against Guile.
+</p>
+</dd>
+<dt><code>--without-included-regex</code></dt>
+<dd><p>Don&rsquo;t use the regex library included with <small>GDB</small> (as part of the
+libiberty library). This is the default on hosts with version 2 of
+the GNU C library.
+</p>
+</dd>
+<dt><code>--with-sysroot=<var>dir</var></code></dt>
+<dd><p>Use <var>dir</var> as the default system root directory for libraries whose
+file names begin with <samp>/lib</samp>&rsquo; or <samp>/usr/lib'</samp>. (The value of
+<var>dir</var> can be modified at run time by using the <code>set
+sysroot</code> command.) If <var>dir</var> is under the <small>GDB</small> configured
+prefix (set with <code>--prefix</code> or <code>--exec-prefix options</code>, the
+default system root will be automatically adjusted if and when
+<small>GDB</small> is moved to a different location.
+</p>
+</dd>
+<dt><code>--with-system-gdbinit=<var>file</var></code></dt>
+<dd><p>Configure <small>GDB</small> to automatically load a system-wide init file.
+<var>file</var> should be an absolute file name. If <var>file</var> is in a
+directory under the configured prefix, and <small>GDB</small> is moved to
+another location after being built, the location of the system-wide
+init file will be adjusted accordingly.
+</p>
+</dd>
+<dt><code>--with-system-gdbinit-dir=<var>directory</var></code></dt>
+<dd><p>Configure <small>GDB</small> to automatically load init files from a
+system-wide directory. <var>directory</var> should be an absolute directory
+name. If <var>directory</var> is in a directory under the configured
+prefix, and <small>GDB</small> is moved to another location after being
+built, the location of the system-wide init directory will be
+adjusted accordingly.
+</p>
+</dd>
+<dt><code>--enable-build-warnings</code></dt>
+<dd><p>When building the <small>GDB</small> sources, ask the compiler to warn about
+any code which looks even vaguely suspicious. It passes many
+different warning flags, depending on the exact version of the
+compiler you are using.
+</p>
+</dd>
+<dt><code>--enable-werror</code></dt>
+<dd><p>Treat compiler warnings as errors. It adds the <code>-Werror</code> flag
+to the compiler, which will fail the compilation if the compiler
+outputs any warning messages.
+</p>
+</dd>
+<dt><code>--enable-ubsan</code></dt>
+<dd><p>Enable the GCC undefined behavior sanitizer. This is disabled by
+default, but passing <code>--enable-ubsan=yes</code> or
+<code>--enable-ubsan=auto</code> to <code>configure</code> will enable it. The
+undefined behavior sanitizer checks for C<tt>++</tt> undefined behavior.
+It has a performance cost, so if you are looking at <small>GDB</small>&rsquo;s
+performance, you should disable it. The undefined behavior sanitizer
+was first introduced in GCC 4.9.
