+/* In non-stop debugging mode, we must take special care to manage
+ breakpoints properly; in particular, the traditional strategy for
+ stepping a thread past a breakpoint it has hit is unsuitable.
+ 'Displaced stepping' is a tactic for stepping one thread past a
+ breakpoint it has hit while ensuring that other threads running
+ concurrently will hit the breakpoint as they should.
+
+ The traditional way to step a thread T off a breakpoint in a
+ multi-threaded program in all-stop mode is as follows:
+
+ a0) Initially, all threads are stopped, and breakpoints are not
+ inserted.
+ a1) We single-step T, leaving breakpoints uninserted.
+ a2) We insert breakpoints, and resume all threads.
+
+ In non-stop debugging, however, this strategy is unsuitable: we
+ don't want to have to stop all threads in the system in order to
+ continue or step T past a breakpoint. Instead, we use displaced
+ stepping:
+
+ n0) Initially, T is stopped, other threads are running, and
+ breakpoints are inserted.
+ n1) We copy the instruction "under" the breakpoint to a separate
+ location, outside the main code stream, making any adjustments
+ to the instruction, register, and memory state as directed by
+ T's architecture.
+ n2) We single-step T over the instruction at its new location.
+ n3) We adjust the resulting register and memory state as directed
+ by T's architecture. This includes resetting T's PC to point
+ back into the main instruction stream.
+ n4) We resume T.
+
+ This approach depends on the following gdbarch methods:
+
+ - gdbarch_max_insn_length and gdbarch_displaced_step_location
+ indicate where to copy the instruction, and how much space must
+ be reserved there. We use these in step n1.
+
+ - gdbarch_displaced_step_copy_insn copies a instruction to a new
+ address, and makes any necessary adjustments to the instruction,
+ register contents, and memory. We use this in step n1.
+
+ - gdbarch_displaced_step_fixup adjusts registers and memory after
+ we have successfuly single-stepped the instruction, to yield the
+ same effect the instruction would have had if we had executed it
+ at its original address. We use this in step n3.
+
+ - gdbarch_displaced_step_free_closure provides cleanup.
+
+ The gdbarch_displaced_step_copy_insn and
+ gdbarch_displaced_step_fixup functions must be written so that
+ copying an instruction with gdbarch_displaced_step_copy_insn,
+ single-stepping across the copied instruction, and then applying
+ gdbarch_displaced_insn_fixup should have the same effects on the
+ thread's memory and registers as stepping the instruction in place
+ would have. Exactly which responsibilities fall to the copy and
+ which fall to the fixup is up to the author of those functions.
+
+ See the comments in gdbarch.sh for details.
+
+ Note that displaced stepping and software single-step cannot
+ currently be used in combination, although with some care I think
+ they could be made to. Software single-step works by placing
+ breakpoints on all possible subsequent instructions; if the
+ displaced instruction is a PC-relative jump, those breakpoints
+ could fall in very strange places --- on pages that aren't
+ executable, or at addresses that are not proper instruction
+ boundaries. (We do generally let other threads run while we wait
+ to hit the software single-step breakpoint, and they might
+ encounter such a corrupted instruction.) One way to work around
+ this would be to have gdbarch_displaced_step_copy_insn fully
+ simulate the effect of PC-relative instructions (and return NULL)
+ on architectures that use software single-stepping.
+
+ In non-stop mode, we can have independent and simultaneous step
+ requests, so more than one thread may need to simultaneously step
+ over a breakpoint. The current implementation assumes there is
+ only one scratch space per process. In this case, we have to
+ serialize access to the scratch space. If thread A wants to step
+ over a breakpoint, but we are currently waiting for some other
+ thread to complete a displaced step, we leave thread A stopped and
+ place it in the displaced_step_request_queue. Whenever a displaced
+ step finishes, we pick the next thread in the queue and start a new
+ displaced step operation on it. See displaced_step_prepare and
+ displaced_step_fixup for details. */
