Subject: [PATCH 23/25] gdb/testsuite/lib/my-syscalls.S: Refactor new SYSCALL macro
Date: Mon, 20 Jun 2022 23:54:17 +0100 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20220620225419.382221-24-pedro@palves.net> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20220620225419.382221-1-pedro@palves.net>
Refactor the syscall assembly code in gdb/testsuite/lib/my-syscalls.S
behind a SYSCALL macro so that it's easy to add new syscalls without
duplicating code.
Note that the way the macro is implemented, it only works correctly
for syscalls with up to 3 arguments, and, if the syscall doesn't
return (the macro doesn't bother to save/restore callee-saved
registers).
The following patch will want to use the macro to define a wrapper for
the "exit" syscall, so the limitations continue to be sufficient.
