From mboxrd@z Thu Jan 1 00:00:00 1970 From: Andrew Cagney To: gdb-patches@sources.redhat.com Subject: [patch/rfc] Rewrite decr-pc logic, eliminate step_sp Date: Mon, 10 May 2004 04:01:00 -0000 Message-id: <409EFE4A.8050807@gnu.org> X-SW-Source: 2004-05/msg00280.html Hello, The attached patch rewrites the logic (er, heuristic) used to decide when to apply decr_pc_after_break. The heuristic even included: step_range_end && INNER_THAN (read_sp (), (step_sp - 16)) yes, the 16 is for real! From memory it has something to do with SPARC signal trampolines (I see the comment has been lost). The new logic, while based on the old code, isn't identical. I've tested it in i386 without regressions (which doesn't cover the s/w single step case). comments?

They won't be equal; breakpoint_pc will be the following instruction, or the target of a branch if *prev_pc was a taken branch. The old code assumes we hit a breakpoint if we stopped with SIGTRAP with singlestep_breakpoints_inserted_p - any reason not to keep that behavior? I think Alpha OSF/1 and Alpha NetBSD are the only current software-single-step and decr-pc targets, which makes this case a little hard to test - at least OSF/1 had dreadful test results already, I'm not sure about NetBSD. Might want to verify that it isn't catastrophic, at least. The rest of it looks right to me, though I had to stare at it for the last twenty minutes or so. -- Daniel Jacobowitz
