The gdbserver hunk looks fine to me.  Comments on the test below.

Hmm, "\$pc - 20" doesn't look right for e.g., x86 with variable
length instructions.  I think that can well start disassembling
in the middle of an instruction, and produce garbage.

No " ($foo)".

No pass call?

This ends up with "$syscall_insn_addr" in the test message.


I'm thinking that it might be good for these tests to also have
a displaced-stepping on/off test axis.  Or better still:

 out-of-line-step-over-bp / in-line-step-over-bp / plain-single-step

with the single-step variant doing a single-step over the
syscall instruction, with no breakpoint at PC at all.

Thanks,
Pedro Alves
