[gdb/tdep] Fix catching syscall execve exit for arm
When running test-case gdb.base/catch-syscall.exp on a pinebook (64-bit aarch64 kernel, 32-bit userland) I run into: ... (gdb) PASS: $exp: execve: syscall(s) execve appears in 'info breakpoints' continue^M Continuing.^M ^M Catchpoint 18 (call to syscall execve), 0xf7726318 in execve () from \ /lib/arm-linux-gnueabihf/libc.so.6^M (gdb) PASS: gdb.base/catch-syscall.exp: execve: program has called execve continue^M Continuing.^M process 32392 is executing new program: catch-syscall^M Cannot access memory at address 0xf77c6a7c^M (gdb) FAIL: $exp: execve: syscall execve has returned ... The memory error is thrown by arm_linux_get_syscall_number, when doing: ... /* PC gets incremented before the syscall-stop, so read the previous instruction. */ unsigned long this_instr = read_memory_unsigned_integer (pc - 4, 4, byte_order_for_code); ... The reason for the error is that we're stopped at the syscall exit of syscall execve, and the pc is at the first insn of the new exec, which also happens to be the first insn in the code segment, so consequently we cannot read the previous insn. Fix this by detecting the situation by looking at the register state, similar to what is done in aarch64_linux_get_syscall_number. Furthermore, catch the memory error by using safe_read_memory_unsigned_integer and return -1 instead, matching the documented behaviour of arm_linux_get_syscall_number. Finally, rather than using a hardcoded constant 11, introduce an ad-hoc arm_sys_execve. Tested on pinebook. PR tdep/31071 Bug: https://sourceware.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=31071
