Hello,
I'm sending v2 because Christophe made a suggestion for the
gdb.arch/aarch64-mops-atomic-inst.exp testcase, so patch 4 incoroporates
it.
The other patches are unchanged from v1.
Here is the original cover letter for convenience:
This patch series implements GDB support for the new instructions in
AArch64's MOPS feature. Patch 1 has a small overview.
What is needed from GDB is recognizing the MOPS sequences of instructions
as atomic so that they can be stepped over during instruction single
stepping, and also to avoid doing displaced stepping with them. This is
done in patch 1.
Patch 2 adds support for the new instructions to the record an replay
target.
The other patches add testcases to test each of the aspects above, plus
one testcase to verify the interaction of the MOPS instructions with
watchpoints.
Tested on Ubuntu 23.10 aarch64-linux-gnu with no regressions, using the
Arm FVP emulator as well as QEMU v8.2.
