The code in the body of a DPRINTF will always be compiled, even if it's
disabled. If TRACING_ON is false, the if around it will short circuit to
false without actually running any code to check the specified
condition, and the body of the if will be elided by the compiler as
unreachable code.
This creates a more consistent environment whether TRACING_ON is on or
not, so that variables which are only used in DPRINTF don't have to be
guarded by their own TRACING_ON #ifs at the call site. It also ensures
that the code inside DPRINTF is always checked to be valid code, even if
the DPRINTF itself will never go off. This helps avoid syntax errors,
etc, which aren't found because of the configuration of the build being
tested with.

Only one is set up corrent, the one passed in from the constructor.
Others can be added with addThreadContext.
The inconsistency of adding one ThreadContext through the constructor
and others through addThreadContext isn't great, but this way we can
ensure that there is always at least one ThreadContext. I'm not sure
what the GDB stub should do if there aren't any threads. I don't think
that the protocol can actually handle that, judging from the

The remote GDB protocol encode thread IDs as positive integers, where 0
is a special value which indicates "pick any thread", and -1 is a
special value which indicates all threads.
The previous implementation would look like it worked handling the
special value -1 (for instance) because it see the '-' of "-1", stop
looking for digits, and return the default value 0.
This new implementation handles -1 as a special case, and will report an
error if no digits were found otherwise.
Also this change adds an encodeThreadId method to convert a ContextID
into a GDB thread ID by adding one to avoid the special value 0.

This is done by implementing the Xfer:features:read packet of the GDB
remote protocol.
Before this commit, gem5 used the defaults of the GDB client.
With this commit, gem5 can inform the client which registers it knows
about. This allows in particular to support new registers which an older
GDB client does not yet know about.
The XML is not implemented in this commit for any arch, and falls back
almost exactly to previous behaviour. The only change is that now gem5
replies to the Supported: request which the GDB clients sends at the
beginning of the transaction with an empty feature list containing only
the mandatory PacketSize= argument.
Since the feature list does not contain qXfer:features:read, the GDB
client knows that the gem5 server does support the XML format and uses
its default registers as before.

Currently, if the remote gdb stub fails to read a byte from an incoming
packet because the connection has been dropped, the read call will return
anyway and the calling code will have no way to know something bad
happened. It might reattempt the read over and over again waiting for some
particular byte, doomed to never make forward progress.
This change modifies the remote GDB code so that if a read or write call
fails, it will instead detach from the debugger and continue. Before this
change, When simulating a port scan, ie connecting to the debugger port
and then immediately dropping the connection using this command:
nc -v -n -z -w 1 127.0.0.1 7000
gem5 would enter the previously described death spiral. After it, gem5
detaches from the bad connection and resumes execution. Subsequently
attaching with gdb was successful.
This code is written in a C centric style, and would benefit from some
refactoring.

Instead of scheduling another event, this patch adds a warning in case gdb
is attached multiple times and the first attachement event has not been
processed yet.
Currently, the wire format of register values in g- and G-packets is
modelled using a union of uint8/16/32/64 arrays. The offset positions
of each register are expressed as a "register count" scaled according
to the width of the register in question. This results in counter-
intuitive and error-prone "register count arithmetic", and some
formats would even be altogether unrepresentable in such model, e.g.
a 64-bit register following a 32-bit one would have a fractional index
in the regs64 array.
Another difficulty is that the array is allocated before the actual
architecture of the workload is known (and therefore before the correct
size for the array can be calculated).
With this patch I propose a simpler mechanism for expressing the
register set structure. In the new code, GdbRegCache is an abstract
class; its subclasses contain straightforward structs reflecting the
register representation. The determination whether to use e.g. the
AArch32 vs. AArch64 register set (or SPARCv8 vs SPARCv9, etc.) is made
by polymorphically dispatching getregs() to the concrete subclass.
The subclass is not instantiated until it is needed for actual
g-/G-packet processing, when the mode is already known.
This patch is not meant to be merged in on its own, because it changes
the contract between src/base/remote_gdb.* and src/arch/*/remote_gdb.*,
so as it stands right now, it would break the other architectures.
In this patch only the base and the ARM code are provided for review;
once we agree on the structure, I will provide src/arch/*/remote_gdb.*
for the other architectures; those patches could then be merged in
together.

The new single stepping implementation for x86 doesn't rely on any ISA
specific properties or functionality. This change pulls out the per ISA
implementation of those functions and promotes the X86 implementation to the
base class.
One drawback of that implementation is that the CPU might stop on an
instruction twice if it's affected by both breakpoints and single stepping.
While that might be a little surprising, it's harmless and would only happen
under somewhat unlikely circumstances.
The check which makes sure the length of the breakpoint being written is the
same as a MachInst is only correct on fixed instruction width ISAs. Instead of
incorrectly applying that check to all ISAs, this change makes that the
default check and lets ISA specific GDB classes override it.
This patch removes the assumption on having on single instance of
PhysicalMemory, and enables a distributed memory where the individual
memories in the system are each responsible for a single contiguous
address range.
All memories inherit from an AbstractMemory that encompasses the basic
behaviuor of a random access memory, and provides untimed access
methods. What was previously called PhysicalMemory is now
SimpleMemory, and a subclass of AbstractMemory. All future types of
memory controllers should inherit from AbstractMemory.
To enable e.g. the atomic CPU and RubyPort to access the now
distributed memory, the system has a wrapper class, called
PhysicalMemory that is aware of all the memories in the system and
their associated address ranges. This class thus acts as an
infinitely-fast bus and performs address decoding for these "shortcut"
accesses. Each memory can specify that it should not be part of the
global address map (used e.g. by the functional memories by some
testers). Moreover, each memory can be configured to be reported to
the OS configuration table, useful for populating ATAG structures, and
any potential ACPI tables.
Checkpointing support currently assumes that all memories have the
same size and organisation when creating and resuming from the
checkpoint. A future patch will enable a more flexible
re-organisation.

This patch is adding a clearer design intent to all objects that would
not be complete without a port proxy by making the proxies members
rathen than dynamically allocated. In essence, if NULL would not be a
valid value for the proxy, then we avoid using a pointer to make this
clear.
The same approach is used for the methods using these proxies, such as
loadSections, that now use references rather than pointers to better
reflect the fact that NULL would not be an acceptable value (in fact
the code would break and that is how this patch started out).
Overall the concept of "using a reference to express unconditional
composition where a NULL pointer is never valid" could be done on a
much broader scale throughout the code base, but for now it is only
done in the locations affected by the proxies.
