arc: Write correct "eret" value during register collection
In collect_register() function of arc-linux-tdep.c, the "eret" (exception return) register value was not being reported correctly. This patch fixes that. Background: When asked for the "pc" value, we have to update the "eret" register with GDB's STOP_PC. The "eret" instructs the kernel code where to jump back when an instruction has stopped due to a breakpoint. This is how collect_register() was doing so: --------------8<-------------- if (regnum == gdbarch_pc_regnum (gdbarch)) regnum = ARC_ERET_REGNUM; regcache->raw_collect (regnum, buf + arc_linux_core_reg_offsets[regnum]); -------------->8-------------- Root cause: Although this is using the correct offset (ERET register's), it is also changing the REGNUM itself. Therefore, raw_collect (regnum, ...) is not reading from "pc" anymore. v2: - Fix a copy/paste issue as rightfully addressed by Tom [1]. [1] https://sourceware.org/pipermail/gdb-patches/2020-November/173208.html gdb/ChangeLog: * arc-linux-tdep.c (collect_register): Populate "eret" by "pc" value from the regcache when asked for "pc" value.
