Hi!
(No specific SH maintainer CCed as none is listed in MAINTAINERS.)
First, for SH GNU/Linux, when running the testsuite via gdbserver on
pristine sources, I'm getting a large number of ERRORs, in the 350s. Is
that normal or at least known? They're basically all of the kind
``ERROR: Process no longer exists'', and then follow-up errors until the
end of the specific testcase. From a very quick glance, they all seem to
be happening after the testcase has instructed GDB to invoke a function,
such as:
(gdb) PASS: gdb.cp/classes.exp: print g_D.p
call class_param.Aptr_a (&g_A)
ERROR: Process no longer exists
UNRESOLVED: gdb.cp/classes.exp: call class_param.Aptr_a (&g_A)
ERROR: Couldn't send call class_param.Aptr_x (&g_A) to GDB.
This probably suggests where to begin looking unless that's know already.
The prologue skipping issue is that GDB fails to place breakpoints
correctly at the beginning of a function -- such as for ``break main'' --
for the case that there is no prologue in that function. In such a case,
it will currently place the breakpoint *after* the first source code line
instead of at its beginning, for example ``break main'' for
gdb.base/arrayidx.c will put a breakpoint on line 25 instead of 23:
20 int
21 main (void)
22 {
23 array[0] = 5;
24
25 return 0;
26 }
Dump of assembler code for function main:
0x00400600 <+0>: mov.l 0x400610 <main+16>,r1 ! 0x41083c <array>
0x00400602 <+2>: mov #5,r2
0x00400604 <+4>: mov.l r2,@r1
0x00400606 <+6>: mov #0,r1
0x00400608 <+8>: mov r1,r0
0x0040060a <+10>: rts
0x0040060c <+12>: nop
0x0040060e <+14>: nop
0x00400610 <+16>: mov.b @(r0,r3),r8
0x00400612 <+18>: .word 0x0041
End of assembler dump.
Crude log of debugging the SH GNU/Linux GDB when advising it to ``break
main'':
Breakpoint 3, sh_skip_prologue (gdbarch=0x90043c8, start_pc=4195840)
OK, this is start_pc == 0x400600.
715 if (!find_pc_partial_function (pc, NULL, &func_addr, &func_end))
Value returned is $3 = 1
(gdb) print/x func_addr
$4 = 0x400600
(gdb) print/x func_end
$5 = 0x400614
OK.
2137 return find_pc_sect_line (pc, section, notcurrent);
Value returned is $8 = {pspace = 0x8fed340, symtab = 0x901a21c, section = 0x0, line = 23, pc = 4195840, end = 4195846, explicit_pc = 0, explicit_line = 0}
OK, still $8->pc == 0x400600, and $8->end == 0x400606, and these are
attached to line 23, ``array[0] = 5;''.
after_prologue (pc=4195840) at /scratch/tschwing/ST_sh-linux-gnu-lite/obj/gdb-src-2012.03-999999-sh-linux-gnu-i686-pc-linux-gnu/gdb/sh-tdep.c:726
726 if (sal.end < func_end)
(gdb) n
727 return sal.end;
(gdb) print/x sal.end
$9 = 0x400606
Wrong, because we now have not skipped the prologue, but the first real
instruction.
Anyway, apart from the 350 ERRORs (with and without my patch), there is a
clear tendency of improvement, and no regressions:

The patch is modeled after what most of all other targets are doing for
getting past the prologue (if there is one), and have been changed
accordingly before, such as in Git commits
93afe5e97284a3d460c19f72f096c4f561673e48,
42294ab40a733dbca9258929d0a6ec72e3059fbc,
5c176a3a457b50fb047477d5e32bdde5ca2dd267, for example.
Probably the very same patch should be applied to sh64-tdep.c, but I
don't have any possibility for testing that. Shall I to do that change
``blindly''?

* sh-tdep.c (sh_skip_prologue): Use skip_prologue_using_sal.
