Torbjörn SVENSSON 60c90d8c6d gdb/arm: Handle lazy FPU state preservation
Read LSPEN, ASPEN and LSPACT bits from FPCCR and use them together
with FPCAR to identify if lazy FPU state preservation is active for
the current frame.  See "Lazy context save of FP state", in B1.5.7,
also ARM AN298, supported by Cortex-M4F architecture for details on
lazy FPU register stacking.  The same conditions are valid for other
Cortex-M cores with FPU.

This patch has been verified on a STM32F4-Discovery board by:
a) writing a non-zero value (lets use 0x1122334455667788 as an
   example) to all the D-registers in the main function
b) configured the SysTick to fire
c) in the SysTick_Handler, write some other value (lets use
   0x0022446688aaccee as an example) to one of the D-registers (D0 as
   an example) and then do "SVC #0"
d) in the SVC_Handler, write some other value (lets use
   0x0099aabbccddeeff) to one of the D-registers (D0 as an example)

In GDB, suspend the execution in the SVC_Handler function and compare
the value of the D-registers for the SVC_handler frame and the
SysTick_Handler frame.  With the patch, the value of the modified
D-register (D0) should be the new value (0x009..eff) on the
SVC_Handler frame, and the intermediate value (0x002..cee) for the
SysTick_Handler frame.  Now compare the D-register value for the
SysTick_Handler frame and the main frame.  The main frame should
have the initial value (0x112..788).

		   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.
