[-- Attachment #1: Type: text/plain, Size: 269 bytes --]

This patch gdbarch-ifies reg_struct_has_addr for mips, 
and then makes it work correctly for N32.  In the process, 
we move the functionality of reg_struct_has_addr out of
mips_push_arguments and put it where it belongs.

This is the other half of my earlier N32 patch.

	*  mips-tdep.c 	(mips_eabi_reg_struct_has_addr, 
	mips_newabi_reg_struct_has_addr, 
	mips_oldabi_reg_struct_has_addr): New gdbarch functions.
	(mips_push_argument): Don't convert struct args to pointers,
	leave it to REG_STRUCT_HAS_ADDR.
	(mips_gdbarch_init): Set gdbarch_reg_struct_has_addr.

No, I don't think this is right.  As best I can tell, there is no cap on 
the size of a struct that is passed by register.

http://techpubs.sgi.com/library/tpl/cgi-bin/getdoc.cgi/srch3@o32/0650/bks/SGI_Developer/books/Mpro_n32_ABI/sgi_html/ch02.html#id80931

I.e., o32 and n32/n64 are the same -> never pass structures by reference.

Per other e-mail, rather than modify the existing mips_push_argument() 
can you please created a dedicated mips_n32n64_push-arguments() function 
and hack on that.  That way, I don't have to worry about the other ABIs.

BTW, the comment here is redundant.

OK, patch withdrawn, I will resubmit it using this assumption, 
just to get the gdbarch-ification checked in, and then we can
work on resolving how N32/64 should work.

Thanks!

BTW, if you're trying to test this, DO NOT TRUST GCC!  Check things out 
with an SGI compiler.
