Yao Qi 6ae274b7dc Fix skipping stack protector on arm
This patch fixes the bug in my patch skipping stack protector
https://www.sourceware.org/ml/gdb-patches/2010-12/msg00110.html

In my skipping stack protector patch, I misunderstood the constant vs.
immediate on instruction encodings, and treated immediate as constant
by mistake.  The instruction 'ldr Rd, [PC, #immed]' loads the
address of __stack_chk_guard to Rd, and #immed is an offset from PC.
We should get the __stack_chk_guard from *(pc + #immed).

As a result of this mistake, arm_analyze_load_stack_chk_guard returns
the wrong address of __stack_chk_guard, and the symbol
__stack_chk_guard can't be found.  However, we continue to match the
following instructions when symbol isn't found, so the code still
works.  In other words, the code just matches the instruction pattern
without checking __stack_chk_guard symbol correctly.

Joel's patch <https://sourceware.org/ml/gdb-patches/2014-10/msg00605.html>
makes the heuristics stricter that we stop matching instructions if
symbol __stack_chk_guard isn't found.  Then the bug is exposed.  This
patch is to correct the load address computation for ldr instruction,
and it fixes some fails in gdb.mi/gdb792.exp on armv4t both arm and
thumb mode.

Regression tested on arm-linux-gnueabi target with
{armv4t, armv7-a} x {marm, mthumb} x {-fstack-protector,-fno-stack-protector}

		   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

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