Fix RISC-V native Linux support to handle a 64-bit FPU (FLEN == 64) with 
both RV32 and RV64 systems, which is a part of the current Linux ABI for 
hard-float systems, rather than assuming that (FLEN == XLEN) in target 
description determination and that (FLEN == 64) in register access.

We can do better however and not rely on any particular value of FLEN 
and probe for it dynamically, by observing that the PTRACE_GETREGSET 
ptrace(2) call will only accept an exact regset size, and that will 
reflect FLEN.  Therefore iterate over the call in target description 
determination with a geometrically increasing regset size until a match 
is marked by a successful ptrace(2) call completion or we run beyond the 
maximum size we can support.

Update register accessors accordingly, using FLEN determined to size the 
buffer used for NT_PRSTATUS requests and then to exchange data with the 
regcache.

Also handle a glibc bug where ELF_NFPREG is defined in terms of NFPREG, 
however NFPREG is nowhere defined.

	gdb/
	* riscv-linux-nat.c [!NFPREG] (NFPREG): New macro.
	(supply_fpregset_regnum, fill_fpregset): Handle regset buffer 
	offsets according to FLEN determined.
	(riscv_linux_nat_target::read_description): Determine FLEN 
	dynamically.
	(riscv_linux_nat_target::fetch_registers): Size regset buffer 
	according to FLEN determined.
	(riscv_linux_nat_target::store_registers): Likewise.

Hi,

 I'm not particularly happy with the lengthy lines in `fill_fpregset' and 
`supply_fpregset_regnum' causing multiple wrapping and deep indentation, 
but technically there is nothing wrong with it, so I'll leave it to a 
later clean-up.

  Maciej

Changes from v1:

- Also set the size of the regset buffer dynamically in 
  `riscv_linux_nat_target::fetch_registers' and 
  `riscv_linux_nat_target::store_registers', and update `fill_fpregset' 
  and `supply_fpregset_regnum' accordingly.

Hi,

 This is v2 of my RISC-V/Linux `gdbserver' support proposal.

 As discussed with the original series I have now factored out large parts 
of `riscv_linux_nat_target::read_description' from riscv-linux-nat.c.  
This is change 2/3 in this series.

 In the course of that effort I have realised other parts of native 
support require adjustment as they access the FP regset as 64-bit even if 
previously assumed (and now detected as) 32-bit.  The relevant fix has 
been integrated into change 1/3.

 Also `gdbserver' itself requires a similar update (which I might have 
realised and forgotten about since Nov), which I have now integrated into 
change 3/3.

 There have been no regressions in native `riscv64-linux-gnu' testing and 
remote `gdbserver' test results are the same as previously (barring the 
usual gdb.threads/ fluctuations).  I think all the changes are ready to go 
in now.

 As usually see individual changes for details.

  Maciej

Implement RISC-V/Linux support for both RV64 and RV32 systems, including 
XML target description handling based on features determined, GPR and 
FPR regset support including dynamic sizing of the latter, and software 
breakpoint handling.  Define two NT_FPREGSET regsets of a different size 
matching the FPR sizes supported for generic `gdbserver' code to pick 
from according to what the OS supplies.

Also handle a glibc bug where ELF_NFPREG is defined in terms of NFPREG,
however NFPREG is nowhere defined.

	gdb/gdbserver/
	* linux-riscv-low.c: New file.
	* Makefile.in (SFILES): Add linux-riscv-low.c, arch/riscv.c, and 
	nat/riscv-linux-tdesc.c.
	* configure.srv <riscv*-*-linux*> (srv_tgtobj)
	(srv_linux_regsets, srv_linux_usrregs, srv_linux_thread_db): 
	Define.
---
Changes from v1:

- Make `gdbserver' selected for automatic build in a RISC-V/Linux/native
  GDB configuration (thanks, Jim, for pointing this out!).

- Remove most of `riscv_arch_setup' and use `riscv_linux_read_description' 
  from 2/3 instead.

- Stop using `elf_fpregset_t*' in favour to just a raw `gdb_byte *' buffer 
  and size the regset according to the FPR size in `riscv_fill_fpregset' 
  and `riscv_store_fpregset'.

- Define 2 NT_FPREGSET regsets of a different size for generic `gdbserver' 
  code to pick from according to what the OS supplies.

Looks OK to me, though I'm not an official reviewer.

I did notice a reference to FGR in a comment that should presumably be
FPR, but that is a very minor issue.

Looks good to me, though I'm not an official review.

I noticed on the gdbserver console I'm getting a lot of ptrace warnings.
    ptrace(regsets_fetch_inferior_registers) PID=1678103: Invalid argument
    Warning: ptrace(regsets_store_inferior_registers): Invalid argument
This looks like a side effect of having two FP regsets defined, it
tries the first one, fails, and then tries the second one which is
correct.  If you mark them as OPTIONAL_REGS we would only get the
warning once which would be OK, except that they can't be both FP_REGS
and OPTIONAL_REGS at the same time.  I don't know what if anything
would break if they aren't marked as FP_REGS.   I only see explicit
checks for GENERAL_REGS and OPTIONAL_REGS; I don't see any checks for
FP_REGS.  Anyways, I would suggest as a future improvement that the
linux gdbserver regset support be extended so that a regset can be
marked as both FP_REGS and OPTIONAL_REGS.

There are some new functions and structures that don't have
explanatory comments before them, but this is a minor issue.

 FGR as in Floating-point General-purpose Register (as opposed to a 
floating-point control register).  Maybe it's too uncommon a use and need 
a full expansion here.

 Hmm, good point.  I think OPTIONAL_REGS might become a flag, however as 
you have observed there seems to be no special meaning indeed to FP_REGS 
and actually only a couple of `gdbserver' hosts use this type, so using 
OPTIONAL_REGS should be fine.  I'll send an update.

 Right, though I think they are self-explanatory.

I forgot to mention this before, but our long term plans are to pass
info via the auxiliary vector from the kernel to the application, and
then in theory gdb should be able to get architecture info from there.
This may require support that hasn't been written yet, and we may
still need the fp probing for older systems that don't have all of the
support needed to make aux vec work.  Just with a quick check on my
4.15 kernel, I see
hifiveu017:1030$ ./a.out
AT_HWCAP = 0x1105
that is 'a', 'c', 'i', and 'm', each represented as 1<<(x-'a').  The
'f' and 'd' info is missing for some reason.  Maybe it hadn't been
implemented yet in this kernel version.

Your kernel is just too archaic to include commit 732e8e4130ff.

 Thanks for the heads-up.  This will undoubtedly be useful for something, 
but I think we have a solution for GDB/gdbserver already, so unless the 
circumstances change, I think we're fine without the need to peek at the 
auxv.

 I'll be posting v3, which has just passed testing, right away.  It 
includes a few further improvements beyond what has been already 
discussed.
