[Committing the `catch syscall' patch for ARM, from Samuel Bronson.]
This time, it passes all the tests and comes with a nearly complete XML file (plus a script that can nearly regenerate the XML file). (I elected to leave out __ARM_NR_cmpxchg, since it has dire warnings to the effect that the only pieces of code that should be aware of it are the implementation and the __kuser_cmpxchg code in entry-armv.S.) gdb/ 2013-08-14 Samuel Bronson <naesten@gmail.com> ARM Linux support for `catch syscall'. * syscalls/arm-linux.py: New file. * syscalls/arm-linux.xml: Likewise. * arm-linux-tdep.c (arm_linux_get_syscall_number): New function. (arm_linux_init_abi): Register the new function and syscall xml file. * data-directory/Makefile.in: Install the new syscall xml file. * NEWS: Brag about this. gdb/testsuite/ 2013-08-14 Samuel Bronson <naesten@gmail.com> ARM Linux support for `catch syscall'. * gdb.base/catch-syscall.exp: Test this on ARM now. (fill_all_syscalls_numbers): ARM has close/chroot on 6/61, too.
