41 * gdb remote procotol (well most versions of it) expects the following
42 * register layout.
44 * General purpose regs:
45 * r0-r30: 64 bit
46 * sp,pc : 64 bit
47 * pstate : 32 bit
48 * Total: 33 + 1
49 * FPU regs:
50 * f0-f31: 128 bit
51 * fpsr & fpcr: 32 bit
52 * Total: 32 + 2
54 * To expand a little on the "most versions of it"... when the gdb remote
55 * protocol for AArch64 was developed it depended on a statement in the
56 * Architecture Reference Manual that claimed "SPSR_ELx is a 32-bit register".
57 * and, as a result, allocated only 32-bits for the PSTATE in the remote
58 * protocol. In fact this statement is still present in ARM DDI 0487A.i.
60 * Unfortunately "is a 32-bit register" has a very special meaning for
61 * system registers. It means that "the upper bits, bits[63:32], are
62 * RES0.". RES0 is heavily used in the ARM architecture documents as a
63 * way to leave space for future architecture changes. So to translate a
64 * little for people who don't spend their spare time reading ARM architecture
65 * manuals, what "is a 32-bit register" actually means in this context is
66 * "is a 64-bit register but one with no meaning allocated to any of the
67 * upper 32-bits... *yet*".
69 * Perhaps then we should not be surprised that this has led to some
70 * confusion. Specifically a patch, influenced by the above translation,
71 * that extended PSTATE to 64-bit was accepted into gdb-7.7 but the patch
72 * was reverted in gdb-7.8.1 and all later releases, when this was
73 * discovered to be an undocumented protocol change.
75 * So... it is *not* wrong for us to only allocate 32-bits to PSTATE
76 * here even though the kernel itself allocates 64-bits for the same
77 * state. That is because this bit of code tells the kernel how the gdb
78 * remote protocol (well most versions of it) describes the register state.
80 * Note that if you are using one of the versions of gdb that supports
81 * the gdb-7.7 version of the protocol you cannot use kgdb directly
82 * without providing a custom register description (gdb can load new
83 * protocol descriptions at runtime).
