btrace: maintenance commands
Add maintenance commands that help debugging the btrace record target.
The following new commands are added:
maint info btrace
Print information about branch tracing internals.
maint btrace packet-history
Print the raw branch tracing data.
maint btrace clear-packet-history
Discard the stored raw branch tracing data.
maint btrace clear
Discard all branch tracing data. It will be fetched and processed
anew by the next "record" command.
maint set|show btrace pt skip-pad
Set and show whether PAD packets are skipped when computing the
packet history.
gdb/
* btrace.c: Include gdbcmd.h, cli/cli-utils.h, and ctype.h.
(maint_btrace_cmdlist, maint_btrace_set_cmdlist)
(maint_btrace_show_cmdlist, maint_btrace_pt_set_cmdlist)
(maint_btrace_pt_show_cmdlist, maint_btrace_pt_skip_pad)
(btrace_maint_clear): New.
(btrace_fetch, btrace_clear): Call btrace_maint_clear.
(pt_print_packet, btrace_maint_decode_pt)
(btrace_maint_update_pt_packets, btrace_maint_update_packets)
(btrace_maint_print_packets, get_uint, get_context_size, no_chunk)

(maint_btrace_clear_packet_history_cmd, maint_btrace_clear_cmd)
(maint_btrace_cmd, maint_btrace_set_cmd, maint_btrace_show_cmd)
(maint_btrace_pt_set_cmd, maint_btrace_pt_show_cmd)
(maint_info_btrace_cmd, _initialize_btrace): New.
* btrace.h (btrace_pt_packet, btrace_pt_packet_s)
(btrace_maint_packet_history, btrace_maint_info): New.
(btrace_thread_info) <maint>: New.
* NEWS: Announce it.
doc/
* gdb.texinfo (Maintenance Commands): Document "maint btrace"
commands.
