A gdbinit file passed via '-x' will be read _after_ parsing any
object/core file passed on the command-line. In cross-compilation context,
this is particularly a problem when loading a core file, because without the
'sysroot' specified in the gdbinit file, it will give a lot of warnings,
like:
warning: .dynamic section for "/lib/libstdc++.so.6" is not at the expected address (wrong library or version mismatch?)
warning: .dynamic section for "/lib/librt.so.1" is not at the expected address (wrong library or version mismatch?)
warning: .dynamic section for "/lib/libm.so.6" is not at the expected address (wrong library or version mismatch?)
warning: .dynamic section for "/lib/libgcc_s.so.1" is not at the expected address (wrong library or version mismatch?)
warning: .dynamic section for "/lib/libc.so.6" is not at the expected address (wrong library or version mismatch?)
warning: .dynamic section for "/lib/ld-linux.so.2" is not at the expected address (wrong library or version mismatch?)
warning: .dynamic section for "/lib/libanl.so.1" is not at the expected address (wrong library or version mismatch?)
warning: .dynamic section for "/lib/libdl.so.2" is not at the expected address (wrong library or version mismatch?)
warning: .dynamic section for "/lib/libpthread.so.0" is not at the expected address (wrong library or version mismatch?)
warning: .dynamic section for "/usr/lib/libz.so.1" is not at the expected address (wrong library or version mismatch?)
warning: .dynamic section for "/lib/libnss_files.so.2" is not at the expected address (wrong library or version mismatch?)
warning: Could not load shared library symbols for 17 libraries, e.g. [...]
Use the "info sharedlibrary" command to see the complete listing.
Do you need "set solib-search-path" or "set sysroot"?
In contrast, the '-ix' option will load the specified gdbinit file _before_
parsing object/core files. This will remove said warnings.

From: Thomas De Schampheleire <thomas.de_schampheleire@nokia.com>
The gdbinit supplied by Buildroot does two things:
A. specify the sysroot where gdb can find shared libraries
B. mark the sysroot as a 'safe path' for its auto-load feature, to make sure
that pretty printers for libstdc++.so are added automatically (see commit
6fb3216a80c64c08375429d89497eaeec5622150)
When debugging a core file, and the gdbinit file is specified via '-x'
rather than '-ix', then the order of these settings matters: If you first
set the sysroot, then gdb will immediately start finding the shared
libraries it needs for the core file, detect libstdc++ and its associated
libstdc++-gdb.py file, then give a big warning about safe paths:
warning: File ".../i686-buildroot-linux-gnu/sysroot/lib/libstdc++.so.6.0.24-gdb.py"
auto-loading has been declined by your `auto-load safe-path' set
to "$debugdir:$datadir/auto-load".
To enable execution of this file add
add-auto-load-safe-path .../i686-buildroot-linux-gnu/sysroot/lib/libstdc++.so.6.0.24-gdb.py
line to your configuration file "/home/me/.gdbinit".
To completely disable this security protection add
set auto-load safe-path /
line to your configuration file "/home/me/.gdbinit".
For more information about this security protection see the
"Auto-loading safe path" section in the GDB manual. E.g., run from the shell:
info "(gdb)Auto-loading safe path"
and the pretty printing code is not loaded. This is because the second
line from the gdbinit file was not yet parsed at this point.
By changing the order (first configuring the safe path, then setting the
sysroot), this issue does not appear and everything is as expected.
Note that when '-ix' were used instead of '-x' to pass the gdbinit file to
gdb, then the order would not matter, because the entire gdbinit file would
be parsed before considering the core file.
However, even though the Buildroot manual now suggests '-ix', users may not
have noticed this change and continue to use '-x'.

Just to clarify: there were two sets of warnings:
1. problems loading shared libraries
2. problems with the auto-load path / pretty printers
Switching from -x to -ix solves both problems.
But if you stick with '-x', this second patch only fixes the second
problem, not the first.
Best regards,
Thomas
