(RISCV) fix handling of fixed-point type return values
This commit adds support for TYPE_CODE_FIXED_POINT types for "finish" and "return" commands. Consider the following Ada code... type FP1_Type is delta 0.1 range -1.0 .. +1.0; -- Ordinary function Call_FP1 (F : FP1_Type) return FP1_Type is begin FP1_Arg := F; return FP1_Arg; end Call_FP1; ... used as follow: F1 : FP1_Type := 1.0; F1 := Call_FP1 (F1); "finish" currently behaves as follow: | (gdb) finish | [...] | Value returned is $1 = 0 We expect the returned value to be "1". Similarly, "return" makes the function return the wrong value: | (gdb) return 1.0 | Make pck.call_fp1 return now? (y or n) y | [...] | 9 F1 := Call_FP1 (F1); | (gdb) next | (gdb) print f1 | $1 = 0.0625 (we expect it to print "1" instead). This problem comes from the handling of integral return values when the return value is actually fixed point type. Our type here is actually a range of a fixed point type, but the same principles should also apply to pure fixed-point types. For the record, here is what the debugging info looks like: <1><238>: Abbrev Number: 2 (DW_TAG_subrange_type) <239> DW_AT_lower_bound : -16 <23a> DW_AT_upper_bound : 16 <23b> DW_AT_name : pck__fp1_type <23f> DW_AT_type : <0x248> <1><248>: Abbrev Number: 4 (DW_TAG_base_type) <249> DW_AT_byte_size : 1 <24a> DW_AT_encoding : 13 (signed_fixed) <24b> DW_AT_binary_scale: -4 <24c> DW_AT_name : pck__Tfp1_typeB <250> DW_AT_artificial : 1 ... where the scaling factor is 1/16. Looking at the "finish" command, what happens is that riscv_arg_location determines that our return value should be returned by parameter using an integral convention (via builtin type long). And then, riscv_return_value uses a cast to that builtin type long to store the value of into a buffer with the right register size. This doesn't work in our case, because the underlying value returned by the function is unscaled, which means it is 16, and thus the cast is like doing: arg_val = (FP1_Type) 16 ... In other words, it is trying to create an FP1_Type enty whose value is 16. Applying the scaling factor, that's 256, and because the size of FP1_Type is 1 byte, we overflow and thus it ends up being zero. The same happen with the "return" function, but the other way around. The fix consists in handling fixed-point types separately from integral types.
