Subject: [rfa/ppc] prologue parser tweaks
Date: Fri, 19 Mar 2004 00:09:00 -0000	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <40577FA6.5080506@gnu.org> (raw)

[-- Attachment #1: Type: text/plain, Size: 524 bytes --]

Hello,

Attached are two tweaks to the PPC skip_prologue method so that it works 
better with glibc:

- handle glibc syscall
Without this an unwinder won't be able to find its way out of a system 
call - it needs to figure out the location of a local label, see comment 
for details.

- handle PIC code where the LR appears to be saved twice
It appears that skip_prologue code tried to handle this but missed an 
edge case.  Without this the wrong LR gets used when trying to unwind 
out of GLIBC.

Ok for mainline?

Andrew

	* rs6000-tdep.c: Add field "func_start".
	(skip_prologue): New variable num_skip_syscall_insn, use to skip
	over first half of a GNU/Linux syscall and update "func_start".
	Record only the first LR save, use to skip over PIC code.
