btrace: indicate speculative execution
Indicate speculatively executed instructions with a leading '?'. We use the space that is normally used for the PC prefix. In the case where the instruction at the current PC had been executed speculatively before, the PC prefix will be partially overwritten resulting in "?> ". As a side-effect, the /p modifier to omit the PC prefix in the "record instruction-history" command now uses a 3-space PC prefix " " in order to have enough space for the speculative execution indication. gdb/ * btrace.c (btrace_compute_ftrace_bts): Clear insn flags. (pt_btrace_insn_flags): New. (ftrace_add_pt): Call pt_btrace_insn_flags. * btrace.h (btrace_insn_flag): New. (btrace_insn) <flags>: New. * record-btrace.c (btrace_insn_history): Print insn prefix. * NEWS: Announce it. doc/ * gdb.texinfo (Process Record and Replay): Document prefixing of speculatively executed instructions in the "record instruction-history" command. testsuite/ * gdb.btrace/instruction_history.exp: Update. * gdb.btrace/tsx.exp: New. * gdb.btrace/tsx.c: New. * lib/gdb.exp (skip_tsx_tests, skip_btrace_pt_tests): New.
