btrace: control memory access during replay
The btrace record target does not trace data. We therefore do not allow accessing read-write memory during replay. In some cases, this might be useful to advanced users, though, who we assume to know what they are doing. Add a set|show command pair to turn this memory access restriction off. * record-btrace.c (record_btrace_allow_memory_access): Remove. (replay_memory_access_read_only, replay_memory_access_read_write) (replay_memory_access_types, replay_memory_access) (set_record_btrace_cmdlist, show_record_btrace_cmdlist) (cmd_set_record_btrace, cmd_show_record_btrace) (cmd_show_replay_memory_access): New. (record_btrace_xfer_partial, record_btrace_insert_breakpoint) (record_btrace_remove_breakpoint): Replace record_btrace_allow_memory_access with replay_memory_access. (_initialize_record_btrace): Add commands. * NEWS: Announce it. testsuite/ * gdb.btrace/data.exp: Test it. doc/ * gdb.texinfo (Process Record and Replay): Document it.
