Subject: [PATCH] Add instruction bytes to DAP disassembly response
Date: Mon,  3 Jul 2023 07:59:02 -0600	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20230703135902.2770290-1-tromey@adacore.com> (raw)

The DAP disassemble command lets the client return the underlying
bytes of the instruction in an implementation-defined format.  This
patch updates gdb to return this, and simply uses a hex string of the
bytes as the format.

+In response to the @code{disassemble} request, DAP allows the client
+to return the bytes of each instruction in an implementation-defined
