Add an optional "alias" attribute to syscall entries.
When setting a syscall catchpoint by name, catch syscalls whose name or alias matches the requested string. When the ABI of a system call is changed in the FreeBSD kernel, this is implemented by leaving a compatibility system call using the old ABI at the existing "slot" and allocating a new system call for the version using the new ABI. For example, new fields were added to the 'struct kevent' used by the kevent() system call in FreeBSD 12. The previous kevent() system call in FreeBSD 12 kernels is now called freebsd11_kevent() and is still used by older binaries compiled against the older ABI. The freebsd11_kevent() system call can be tagged with an "alias" attribute of "kevent" permitting 'catch syscall kevent' to catch both system calls and providing the expected user behavior for both old and new binaries. It also provides the expected behavior if GDB is compiled on an older host (such as a FreeBSD 11 host). gdb/ChangeLog: * NEWS: Add entry documenting system call aliases. * break-catch-syscall.c (catch_syscall_split_args): Pass 'result' to get_syscalls_by_name. * gdbarch.sh (UNKNOWN_SYSCALL): Remove. * gdbarch.h: Regenerate. * syscalls/gdb-syscalls.dtd (syscall): Add alias attribute. * xml-syscall.c [!HAVE_LIBEXPAT] (get_syscalls_by_name): Rename from get_syscall_by_name.

When the ABI of a system call changes in FreeBSD, this is
|
||||
implemented by leaving a compatibility system call using the old ABI
|
||||
at the existing number and allocating a new system call number for
|
||||
the new ABI. For example, FreeBSD 12 altered the layout of 'struct
|
||||
kevent' used by the 'kevent' system call. As a result, FreeBSD 12
|
||||
kernels ship with both 'kevent' and 'freebsd11_kevent' system calls.
|
||||
The 'freebsd11_kevent' system call is assigned an alias of 'kevent'
|
||||
so that a system call catchpoint for the 'kevent' system call will
|
||||
catch invocations of both the 'kevent' and 'freebsd11_kevent'
|
||||
binaries. This ensures that 'kevent' system calls are caught for
|
||||
binaries using either the old or new ABIs.
