These regressions were those that I ran into with a first version of the
patch, which handled only __x86.get_pc_thunk.ax.
This version handles bx and dx in addition, which triggers an additional
regression (indeed another -O2 test-case):
...
FAIL: gdb.cp/step-and-next-inline.exp: no_header: not in inline 1
...
Anyway, a quick investigation shows that there are still more regs to
handle:
...
$ objdump -d /lib/libc.so.6 | grep get_pc_thunk | awk '{print $9}' | sort -u
<__x86.get_pc_thunk.ax>
<__x86.get_pc_thunk.bp>
<__x86.get_pc_thunk.bx>
<__x86.get_pc_thunk.cx>
<__x86.get_pc_thunk.di>
<__x86.get_pc_thunk.dx>
<__x86.get_pc_thunk.si>
...
so with a more complete version of this patch, still more -O2
regressions may show up.
Thanks,
- Tom
