Subject: MIPS targets broken by dummy frame/regcache changes
Date: Thu, 10 Oct 2002 13:51:00 -0000 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20021010205112.GA26436@nevyn.them.org> (raw)
I get this backtrace on MIPS/Linux:

The problem is that you're copying the whole regcache blindly. But there's
holes in it that we can't store. I'm sure you remember register 72 - it
used to be the frame pointer; now it's a hole in the register cache. We get
to it and try to write it, even though it doesn't exist.
I get the same thing for the next couple registers, up to 89. For now I've
turned it down to a warning in my local tree...
