[PATCH v2 2/8] Use tdesc_reg in gxdbserver tdesc

Alan Hayward Alan.Hayward@arm.com
Wed Jan 24 09:27:00 GMT 2018


This patch commonises tdesc_reg and makes use of it in gdbserver tdesc.

tdesc_create_reg is changed to create a tdesc_reg and place it in
tdesc_feature.

After registers have been parsed, init_target_desc is called. I
have expanded this function so that it now populates the reg_defs
directly from the tdesc_reg registers.

The long term goal is to change the other files within gdbserver to
access member functions instead of reg_defs directly. reg_defs can
then be removed. This is out of the scope of this patch series.

I wanted to make tdesc_create_reg common, but I cannot do that until
the next patch.

I also had to commonise tdesc_element_visitor and tdesc_element.

The gdbserver makefile change is a little strange. I had to add using
"..". I think there is a rule that needs changing, but I have no idea
where it is. Note that this is the first file in arch which is common
for all builds. I'm also wondering if tdesc.c/h should be in arch/ ?
Maybe it should be moved to common?

Alan.
