From: Tom Tromey Date: Wed, 7 Jun 2023 14:56:03 +0000 (-0600) Subject: Call target_can_do_single_step from maybe_software_singlestep X-Git-Url: http://git.ipfire.org/cgi-bin/gitweb.cgi?a=commitdiff_plain;h=14de1447c9c52c1bfc52588f8652836f66ac6c47;p=thirdparty%2Fbinutils-gdb.git Call target_can_do_single_step from maybe_software_singlestep When the PikeOS osabi sniffer was added, Pedro suggested that a target could omit stepping from its vCont? reply packet to tell gdb that software single-step must be used: https://sourceware.org/legacy-ml/gdb-patches/2018-09/msg00312.html This patch implements this idea by moving the call to target_can_do_single_step into maybe_software_singlestep. I've also removed some FIXME comments from gdbarch_components.py, and slightly updated the documentation for gdbarch_software_single_step. I think these comments are somewhat obsolete now that target_can_do_single_step exists -- the current approach isn't exactly what the comments intended, but on the other hand, it exists and works. Following review comments from Andrew, this version changes record-full to use maybe_software_singlestep, and then combines maybe_software_singlestep with insert_single_step_breakpoint.
