Fold the GDBListener class into the main BaseRemoteGDB class, move
around a bunch of functions, convert a lot of internal functions to
be private, move some functions into the .cc, make some functions
non-virtual which didn't really need to be overridden.

GDB breaks if more bytes are sent than the transmitted registers
actually need. Therefore the GdbRegCache struct needs to be packed to
prevent padding at the end.

The new version modularizes the implementation of the various commands,
gets rid of dynamic allocation of the register cache, fixes some small
style problems, and uses exceptions to simplify error handling internal to
the GDB stub.

Currently, the wire format of register values in g- and G-packets is
modelled using a union of uint8/16/32/64 arrays. The offset positions
of each register are expressed as a "register count" scaled according
to the width of the register in question. This results in counter-
intuitive and error-prone "register count arithmetic", and some
formats would even be altogether unrepresentable in such model, e.g.
a 64-bit register following a 32-bit one would have a fractional index
in the regs64 array.
Another difficulty is that the array is allocated before the actual
architecture of the workload is known (and therefore before the correct
size for the array can be calculated).
With this patch I propose a simpler mechanism for expressing the
register set structure. In the new code, GdbRegCache is an abstract
class; its subclasses contain straightforward structs reflecting the
register representation. The determination whether to use e.g. the
AArch32 vs. AArch64 register set (or SPARCv8 vs SPARCv9, etc.) is made
by polymorphically dispatching getregs() to the concrete subclass.
The subclass is not instantiated until it is needed for actual
g-/G-packet processing, when the mode is already known.
This patch is not meant to be merged in on its own, because it changes
the contract between src/base/remote_gdb.* and src/arch/*/remote_gdb.*,
so as it stands right now, it would break the other architectures.
In this patch only the base and the ARM code are provided for review;
once we agree on the structure, I will provide src/arch/*/remote_gdb.*
for the other architectures; those patches could then be merged in
together.

This patch rolls back the move of the GDB_REG_BYTES constant, and
instead adds M5_VAR_USED.
|

This patch fixes a few small issues to ensure gem5 compiles when using
gcc 5.1.
First, the GDB_REG_BYTES in the RemoteGDB header are, rather
surprisingly, flagged as unused for both ARM and X86. Removing them,
however, causes compilation errors as they are actually used in the
source file. Moving the constant into the class definition fixes the
issue. Possibly a gcc bug.
Second, we have an unused EthPktData constructor using auto_ptr, and
the latter is deprecated. Since the code is never used it is simply
removed.
|

The new single stepping implementation for x86 doesn't rely on any ISA
specific properties or functionality. This change pulls out the per ISA
implementation of those functions and promotes the X86 implementation to the
base class.
One drawback of that implementation is that the CPU might stop on an
instruction twice if it's affected by both breakpoints and single stepping.
While that might be a little surprising, it's harmless and would only happen
under somewhat unlikely circumstances.
|
|
This stub should allow remote debugging of 32 bit and 64 bit targets. Single
stepping seems to work, as do breakpoints. If both breakpoints and single
stepping affect an instruction, gdb will stop at the instruction twice before
continuing. That's a little surprising, but is generally harmless.
