[Bug runtime/13832] New: handle vector/float registers in loc2c et al.


http://sourceware.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=13832

             Bug #: 13832
           Summary: handle vector/float registers in loc2c et al.
           Product: systemtap
           Version: unspecified
            Status: NEW
          Severity: normal
          Priority: P2
         Component: runtime
        AssignedTo: systemtap@sourceware.org
        ReportedBy: fche@redhat.com
    Classification: Unclassified


Some work is underway in gcc to let it spill integer registers into the vector
registers instead of to the stack, as a possible optimization.  So sooner or
later, we'll encounter DWARF that requires pulling data out of %xmm999 or
somesuch, even for plain old integer values.  loc2c and friends will need to
support this.
