This is as per the spec:
https://developer.arm.com/products/architecture/a-profile/docs/100985/0000
gdb/
* aarch64-tdep.c (aarch64_dwarf_reg_to_regnum): Add mappings.
* aarch64-tdep.h (AARCH64_DWARF_SVE_VG): Add define.
(AARCH64_DWARF_SVE_FFR): Likewise.
(AARCH64_DWARF_SVE_P0): Likewise.
(AARCH64_DWARF_SVE_Z0): Likewise.
Add the functionality for reading/writing pseudo registers.
On SVE the V registers are pseudo registers. This is supported
by adding AARCH64_SVE_V0_REGNUM.
* aarch64-tdep.c (AARCH64_SVE_V0_REGNUM): Add define.
(aarch64_vnv_type): Add function.
(aarch64_pseudo_register_name): Add V regs for SVE.
(aarch64_pseudo_register_type): Likewise.
(aarch64_pseudo_register_reggroup_p): Likewise.
(aarch64_pseudo_read_value_2): Use V0 offset for SVE
(aarch64_pseudo_read_value): Add V regs for SVE.
(aarch64_pseudo_write_2): Use V0 offset for SVE
(aarch64_pseudo_write): Add V regs for SVE.
* aarch64-tdep.h (struct gdbarch_tdep): Add vnv_type.
Enable SVE support for GDB by reading the VQ when creating a
target description.
Also ensurse that SVE is taken into account when creating
the tdep structure, and store the current VQ value directly in tdep.

* aarch64-linux-nat.c (aarch64_linux_read_description): Support SVE.
* aarch64-tdep.c (aarch64_get_tdesc_vq): New function.
(aarch64_gdbarch_init): Check for SVE.
* aarch64-tdep.h (gdbarch_tdep::has_sve): New function.
Previously VQ was of type long. Using uint64_t ensures it always matches the
same type as the VG register.
Note that in the Linux kernel, VQ is 16bits. We cast it up to 64bits
immediately after reading to ensure we always use the same type throughout
the code.

This applies the second part of GDB's End of Year Procedure, which
updates the copyright year range in all of GDB's files.
gdb/ChangeLog:
Update copyright year range in all GDB files.
We don't track FP registers in aarch64 prologue analyzer, so this causes
an internal error when FP registers are saved by "stp" instruction in
prologue (stp d8, d9, [sp,#128]),
tbreak _Unwind_RaiseException^M
aarch64-tdep.c:335: internal-error: CORE_ADDR aarch64_analyze_prologue(gdbarch*, CORE_ADDR, CORE_ADDR, aarch64_prologue_cache*): Assertion `inst.operands[0].type == AARCH64_OPND_Rt' failed.^M
A problem internal to GDB has been detected,
This patch teaches GDB to track FP registers (D registers) in prologue
analyzer.

This patch is to support displaced stepping in aarch64-linux. A
visitor is implemented for displaced stepping, and used to record
information to fixup pc after displaced stepping if needed. Some
emit_* functions are converted to macros, and moved to
arch/aarch64-insn.{c,h} so that they can be shared.

Current trunk GDB (and gdb-7.8.1 too) fails to build on Aarch64 when
-fno-common is enabled. It fails during link stage due to multiple
definition of `tdesc_aarch64':

This happens because struct target_desc *tdesc_aarch64 is defined in
gdb/features/aarch64.c, which is included by two files
(gdb/aarch64-linux-nat.c and gdb/aarch64-tdep.c).
