Markus Metzger 31fd9caad9 record-btrace: indicate gaps
Indicate gaps in the trace due to decode errors.  Internally, a gap is
represented as a btrace function segment without instructions and with a
non-zero format-specific error code.

Show the gap when traversing the instruction or function call history.
Also indicate gaps in "info record".

It looks like this:

  (gdb) info record
  Active record target: record-btrace
  Recording format: Branch Trace Store.
  Buffer size: 64KB.
  Recorded 32 instructions in 5 functions (1 gaps) for thread 1 (process 7182).
  (gdb) record function-call-history /cli
  1	fib	inst 1,9	at src/fib.c:9,14
  2	  fib	inst 10,20	at src/fib.c:6,14
  3	[decode error (1): instruction overflow]
  4	fib	inst 21,28	at src/fib.c:11,14
  5	  fib	inst 29,33	at src/fib.c:6,9
  (gdb) record instruction-history 20,22
  20	   0x000000000040062f <fib+47>:	sub    $0x1,%rax
  [decode error (1): instruction overflow]
  21	   0x0000000000400613 <fib+19>:	add    $0x1,%rax
  22	   0x0000000000400617 <fib+23>:	mov    %rax,0x200a3a(%rip)
  (gdb)

Gaps are ignored during reverse execution and replay.

		   README for GNU development tools

This directory contains various GNU compilers, assemblers, linkers, 
debuggers, etc., plus their support routines, definitions, and documentation.

If you are receiving this as part of a GDB release, see the file gdb/README.
If with a binutils release, see binutils/README;  if with a libg++ release,
see libg++/README, etc.  That'll give you info about this
package -- supported targets, how to use it, how to report bugs, etc.

It is now possible to automatically configure and build a variety of
tools with one command.  To build all of the tools contained herein,
run the ``configure'' script here, e.g.:

	./configure 
	make

To install them (by default in /usr/local/bin, /usr/local/lib, etc),
then do:
	make install

(If the configure script can't determine your type of computer, give it
the name as an argument, for instance ``./configure sun4''.  You can
use the script ``config.sub'' to test whether a name is recognized; if
it is, config.sub translates it to a triplet specifying CPU, vendor,
and OS.)

If you have more than one compiler on your system, it is often best to
explicitly set CC in the environment before running configure, and to
also set CC when running make.  For example (assuming sh/bash/ksh):

	CC=gcc ./configure
	make

A similar example using csh:

	setenv CC gcc
	./configure
	make

Much of the code and documentation enclosed is copyright by
the Free Software Foundation, Inc.  See the file COPYING or
COPYING.LIB in the various directories, for a description of the
GNU General Public License terms under which you can copy the files.

REPORTING BUGS: Again, see gdb/README, binutils/README, etc., for info
on where and how to report problems.
