Hi Alex,

Thanks for the Feedback.
You're right — "Pending" isn't the best fit here. The patch is a partial adaptation/backport of
Thiago Jung Bauermann’s V4 series, which is still under review on gdb-patches and has not
landed in master yet. ( https://sourceware.org/pipermail/gdb-patches/2026-March/225502.html )

Thiago has indicated he will prepare a 17.1-specific version once the master series is resolved.

I’ve updated the Upstream-Status line to:

Upstream-Status: Submitted [gdb-patches, Thiago Jung Bauermann v4 series (not yet merged): https://sourceware.org/pipermail/gdb-patches/2026-March/225502.html — partial adaptation for the GDB 17.1 header layout]

Would you prefer using Backport [...] here instead, even though there is no master commit yet,
or does Submitted better reflect the current upstream situation?

Thanks,
Sunil Dora
