btrace: change branch trace data structure
The branch trace is represented as 3 vectors: - a block vector - a instruction vector - a function vector Each vector (except for the first) is computed from the one above. Change this into a graph where a node represents a sequence of instructions belonging to the same function and where we have three types of edges to connect the function segments: - control flow - same function (instance) - call stack This allows us to navigate in the branch trace. We will need this for "record goto" and reverse execution. This patch introduces the data structure and computes the control flow edges. It also introduces iterator structs to simplify iterating over the branch trace in control-flow order. It also fixes PR gdb/15240 since now recursive calls are handled correctly. Fix the test that got the number of expected fib instances and also the function numbers wrong. The current instruction had been part of the branch trace. This will look odd once we start support for reverse execution. Remove it. We still keep it in the trace itself to allow extending the branch trace more easily in the future. 2014-01-16 Markus Metzger <markus.t.metzger@intel.com> * btrace.h (struct btrace_func_link): New.
