This commit unifies all of the Python register lookup code (used by Frame.read_register, PendingFrame.read_register, and gdb.UnwindInfo.add_saved_register), and adds support for using a gdb.RegisterDescriptor for register lookup. Currently the register unwind code (PendingFrame and UnwindInfo) allow registers to be looked up either by name, or by GDB's internal number. I suspect the number was added for performance reasons, when unwinding we don't want to repeatedly map from name to number for every unwind. However, this kind-of sucks, it means Python scripts could include GDB's internal register numbers, and if we ever change this numbering in the future users scripts will break in unexpected ways. Meanwhile, the Frame.read_register method only supports accessing registers using a string, the register name. This commit unifies all of the register to register-number lookup code in our Python bindings, and adds a third choice into the mix, the use of gdb.RegisterDescriptor. The register descriptors can be looked up by name, but once looked up, they contain GDB's register number, and so provide all of the performance benefits of using a register number directly. However, as they are looked up by name we are no longer tightly binding the Python API to GDB's internal numbering scheme. As we may already have scripts in the wild that are using the register numbers directly I have kept support for this in the API, but I have listed this method last in the manual, and I have tried to stress that this is NOT a good method to use and that users should use either a string or register descriptor approach. After this commit all existing Python code should function as before, but users now have new options for how to identify registers. gdb/ChangeLog: * python/py-frame.c: Remove 'user-regs.h' include. (frapy_read_register): Rewrite to make use of gdbpy_parse_register_id. * python/py-registers.c (gdbpy_parse_register_id): New function, moved here from python/py-unwind.c. Updated the return type, and also accepts register descriptor objects. * python/py-unwind.c: Remove 'user-regs.h' include. (pyuw_parse_register_id): Moved to python/py-registers.c. (unwind_infopy_add_saved_register): Update to use gdbpy_parse_register_id. (pending_framepy_read_register): Likewise. * python/python-internal.h (gdbpy_parse_register_id): Declare. gdb/testsuite/ChangeLog: * gdb.python/py-unwind.py: Update to make use of a register descriptor. gdb/doc/ChangeLog: * python.texi (Unwinding Frames in Python): Update descriptions for PendingFrame.read_register and gdb.UnwindInfo.add_saved_register. (Frames In Python): Update description of Frame.read_register.

This unwinder can unwind the frames that have been deliberately

|
corrupted in a specific way (functions in the accompanying
|
|
py-unwind.c file do that.)
|
|
This code is only on AMD64.
|
|
On AMD64 $RBP points to the innermost frame (unless the code
|
|
was compiled with -fomit-frame-pointer), which contains the
|
|
address of the previous frame at offset 0. The functions
|
|
deliberately corrupt their frames as follows:
|
|
Before After
|
|
Corruption: Corruption:
|
|
+--------------+ +--------------+
|
|
RBP-8 | | | Previous RBP |
|
|
+--------------+ +--------------+
|
|
RBP + Previous RBP | | RBP |

+--------------+ +--------------+
|
|
RBP+8 | Return RIP | | Return RIP |
|
|
+--------------+ +--------------+
|
|
Old SP | | | |

This unwinder recognizes the corrupt frames by checking that

|
*RBP == RBP, and restores previous RBP from the word above it.
