[rfc][3/3] Remote core file generation: memory map

- Subject: [rfc][3/3] Remote core file generation: memory map
Hello,
the final remaining piece to support remote core file generation
is the target_find_memory_regions hook. This is really properly
a target hook, but it is unfortunately not implemented for the
remote target.
The patch below adds support by adding a new TARGET_OBJECT_PROCESS_MAP
xfer type implemented via a qXfer:process-map:read packet.
Note that there already is a qXfer:memory-map:read packet, but this
is not usable as-is to implement target_find_memory_regions, since
it is really intended for a *system* memory map for some naked
embedded targets instead of a per-process virtual address space map.
For example:
- the memory map is read into a single global mem_region list; it is not
switched for multiple inferiors
- native or gdbserver Linux targets do not have a memory map today,
and just enabling it changes memory access behaviour in unexpected
ways, e.g. accesses outside of memory regions in /proc//maps are
now no longer possible; also caching behaviour is different
- the memory attribute format is insufficient to express properties
of a virtual memory mapping (e.g. permissions; mapped filename ...)
I guess longer term it might be nicer to always have a memory map,
and also use it for native targets, and then use the same map also
for core file generation ...
I'd appreciate suggestions how to move forward on this; is having a
new qXfer type just for core file generation OK, or should we rather
attempt to move towards an always-active memory map -- if the latter,
how can we get there?
Thanks,
Ulrich
