Subject: [PATCH 4/4] gdb/aarch64: record/replay support for LSE128
Date: Mon, 20 Apr 2026 22:52:32 +0100	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20260420215232.68675-5-Ezra.Sitorus@arm.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20260420215232.68675-1-Ezra.Sitorus@arm.com>

From: Ezra Sitorus <ezra.sitorus@arm.com>

FEAT_LSE128 introduces support for 128-bit atomic instructions. This
patch teaches GDB to decode these instructions for recording and
reversing.

Regression tested on aarch64-none-linux-gnu on QEMU with LSE128 support.
I observe unrelated regressions that appear to be environmental rather
than caused by this patch.

+# Test instruction record for AArch64 FEAT_LSE128 instructions.
+# Based on gdb.reverse/aarch64-mops.exp
+#
+# The basic flow of the record tests are:
+#    1) Stop before executing the instructions of interest.  Record
+#       the initial value of the registers that the instruction will
+#       change, i.e. the destination register.
+#    2) Execute the instructions.  Record the new value of the
+#       registers that changed.
+#    3) Reverse the direction of the execution and execute back to
+#       just before the instructions of interest.  Record the final
+#       value of the registers of interest.
+#    4) Check that the initial and new values of the registers are
+#       different, i.e. the instruction changed the registers as expected.
+#    5) Check that the initial and final values of the registers are
+#       the same, i.e. GDB record restored the registers to their
+#       original values.
