[PATCH v2] Add SVR4 psABI specific parser for AUXV entries

Kamil Rytarowski n54@gmx.com
Wed Apr 8 14:58:32 GMT 2020


NetBSD and OpenBSD always use an int to store the type as
defined in the SVR4 psABI specifications rather than long
as assumed by the default parser.

Define svr4_auxv_parse() that shares code with default_auxv_parse().

Remove obsd_auxv_parse() and switch OpenBSD to svr4_auxv_parse().
Remove not fully accurate comment from obsd-tdep.c.

Use svr4_auxv_parse() on NetBSD.

gdb/ChangeLog:

	* auxv.h (svr4_auxv_parse): New.
	* auxv.c (default_auxv_parse): Split into default_auxv_parse
	and generic_auxv_parse.
	(svr4_auxv_parse): Add.
	* obsd-tdep.c: Include "auxv.h".
	(obsd_auxv_parse): Remove.
	(obsd_init_abi): Remove comment.
	(obsd_init_abi): Change set_gdbarch_auxv_parse passed argument
	from `obsd_auxv_parse' to `svr4_auxv_parse'.
	* nbsd-tdep.c: Include "auxv.h".
	(nbsd_init_abi): Call set_gdbarch_auxv_parse.
