[PATCH v2] gdb/hppa-tdep.c: Fix logical working flow typo issue

[Chen Gang]

inst_saves_gr() wants to recognize 'st??' instruction, according to the
code we know it include 'stb' (for store byte), 'stw(m)' (for store
word), and 'std' (for store double word).

They should be in the same format, and have neighbour numbers:
especially, 'stw(m)' need be in the middle of 'stb' and 'std'.

 - for ((inst >> 26) != 0x3):

   stb: 0x18, or 0x19,
   stw: 0x1a, stwm: 0x1b,
   std: 0x1c.

 - else ((inst >> 26) == 0x3), need check:

   stb: 0x08, or 0x09,
   stw: 0x0a,
   std: 0x0b.

For clearer reason, not combine the logical comparation code together.

Re: [PATCH v2] gdb/hppa-tdep.c: Fix logical working flow typo issue

[Chen Gang]

Hello all:

Is this patch OK, it is part of checking saving registers in the stack,
it tries to recognize the saving instructions "stb, stw(m), or std", so
can continue checking.

Excuse me, I have no related environments for a test, I assumed that the
original author knew about the working flow, then wrote the related
function.

If need additional analyzing, please let me know (better to let me know
what I need try, next).


Thanks.

Thank you for the patch, but lack of access to an environment where
you can test is an issue.  I would be an entirely different context
if the fix was obvious, but it isn't unless perhaps you start
opening HP-PA assembly manuals; and I don't honestly see much interest
in HP-PA anymore.

And if you do not have access to an environment for a test, how did
you come about this issue? Does the lack of evironment mean lack of
the software (tcl, expect, dejagnu), or lack of hardware?

I shall try to find the related assembly reference (although it is not
quite easy for me, and may be fail to get it), or get parisc related
members confirmation.

Hope I can get related proof (related documents, or related members
confirmation) within next month (2014-12-31), although I am not quite
sure whether I can finish or not.

It is lack of hardware and related software. And I found it firstly by
gcc5 compiler warning, then read through the code (together with some
gdb members), found it should be an issue.

After consult parisc kernel members, I found the related document for
it, I guess, it can be as our proof for this patch:

  https://parisc.wiki.kernel.org/images-parisc/7/73/Parisc2.0.pdf

For me, my original comments need be improved: need mention about STH,
and maybe also need consider about additional related instructions of
parisc 2.0 (STDA, STWA, STBY, STDBY) in our source code.

Welcome any suggestions, ideas, and completions.

Thanks.

OK, thanks, I shall try to send patch v3 within this week (2014-12-14).
If the time point is too late, please let me know, and I shall try to
send it as soon as possible.
