Sparc supply_gregset and supply_fpregset

Sparc supply_gregset and supply_fpregset

[David O'Brien]

Who (which file) is 1 to supply the definitions for supply_gregset
and supply_fpregset when USE_PROC_FS is not set?

I am writing the FreeBSD/sparc64 support and at this point I do not want
to support /proc.

Normally your target -nat file will do this.

If you can do them from the target -tdep file without a great deal of
awkwardness, however, that's preferable.

I must be missing something.  I am following the NetBSD bits, and I do
not see how they are dealing with this.  Do you happen to know?

I'm not familiar with them... *_gregset are only used by:
  - Thread code, which is I believe GNU/Linux specific (lin-lwp rather
than the generic thread_db)
  - Core dump code.

Does the NetBSD code you're looking at even support core dumps? 
Perhaps it does so without these functions...
