Subject: [PATCH] fix ARM CPSR register fetching in linux
Date: Tue, 21 Apr 2009 06:12:00 -0000 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20090421060715.GC12530@blade.healthdatacare.com> (raw)

Hi,
Current version of gdb cannot read CPSR register correctly through
ptrace(2) when debugging live process on ARM linux. Problem is caused
by change where ARM_CPSR_REGNUM (16) was aliased to ARM_PS_REGNUM (25).
This is easy to test on ARM linux targets: just run 'info registers'.
Following patch should fix it.

* arm-linux-tdep.h, arm-tdep.h: Changed ARM_CPSR_REGNUM to be
correct (16) again.
Thanks,
MW
