Hi,
This patch is to support catch syscall on aarch64 linux. We
implement gdbarch method get_syscall_number for aarch64-linux,
and add aarch64-linux.xml file, which looks straightforward, however
the changes to test case doesn't.
First of all, we enable catch-syscall.exp on aarch64-linux target,
but skip the multi_arch testing on current stage. I plan to touch
multi arch debugging on aarch64-linux later.
Then, when I run catch-syscall.exp on aarch64-linux, gcc errors that
SYS_pipe isn't defined. We find that aarch64 kernel only has pipe2
syscall and libc already convert pipe to pipe2. As a result, I change
catch-syscall.c to use SYS_pipe if it is defined, otherwise use
SYS_pipe2 instead. The vector all_syscalls in catch-syscall.exp can't
be pre-determined, so I add a new proc setup_all_syscalls to fill it,
according to the availability of SYS_pipe.
Regression tested on {x86_64, aarch64}-linux x {native, gdbserver}.
