gas: scfi: make scfi_state_restore_reg function more precise
[No changes in V3, V4] [New in V2] - This patch is orthogonal to aarch64 support. It is included here because the testcase added for it is aarch64 specific. It is a bugfix really. [End of New in V2] When the SCFI machinery detects that a register has been restored from stack, it makes some state changes in the SCFI state object. Prior to the patch, scfi_state_restore_reg () was setting a value of (reg, CFI_IN_REG) for (base, state) respectively. This was causing issues in the cmp_scfi_state () function: - The default state of all (callee-saved) regs at the beginning of function is set to (0, CFI_UNDEFINED). - If a register is saved and restored on some control path, the state of reg is (reg, CFI_IN_REG) on that path. - On another control path where the register was perhaps not used (or saved/restored on stack) remains (0, CFI_UNDEFINED). - The two states should be treated equal, however, at the point in program after the register has been restored. Fix this by resetting the state to (0, CFI_UNDEFINED) in scfi_state_restore_reg (). A testcase (scfi-cfg-4.s) for this is added in a subsequent commit. gas/ * scfi.c (scfi_state_restore_reg): Reset to 0, CFI_UNDEFINED for base, state.
