For amd64 the current frame-unwinders are:
...
$ gdb -q -batch -ex "set arch i386:x86-64" -ex "maint info frame-unwinders"
The target architecture is set to "i386:x86-64".
dummy DUMMY_FRAME
dwarf2 tailcall TAILCALL_FRAME
inline INLINE_FRAME
python NORMAL_FRAME
amd64 epilogue NORMAL_FRAME
dwarf2 NORMAL_FRAME
dwarf2 signal SIGTRAMP_FRAME
amd64 sigtramp SIGTRAMP_FRAME
amd64 prologue NORMAL_FRAME
...
For a -g0 -fasynchronous-unwind-tables exec (without .debug_info but with
.eh_frame section), we'd like to start using the dwarf2 unwinder instead of
the "amd64 epilogue" unwinder, by returning true in
compunit_epilogue_unwind_valid for cust == nullptr.
But we'd run into the following problem for a -g0
-fno-asynchronous-unwind-tables (without .debug_info and .eh_frame section)
exec:
- the "amd64 epilogue" unwinder would not run
(because compunit_epilogue_unwind_valid () == true)
- the dwarf2 unwinder would also not run
(because there's no .eh_frame info).
Fix this by:
- renaming the "amd64 epilogue" unwinder to "amd64 epilogue override", and
- adding a fallback "amd64 epilogue" after the dwarf unwinders,
while making sure that only one of the two is active. Likewise for i386. NFC.
For amd64, this results in this change:
...
$ gdb -q -batch -ex "set arch i386:x86-64" -ex "maint info frame-unwinders"
The target architecture is set to "i386:x86-64".

And for i386:

The target architecture is set to "i386".
