Sergio Durigan Junior 458c8db89f Partial fix for PR breakpoints/10737: Make syscall info be per-arch instead of global
This patch intends to partially fix PR breakpoints/10737, which is
about making the syscall information (for the "catch syscall" command)
be per-arch, instead of global.  This is not a full fix because of the
other issues pointed by Pedro here:

  <https://sourceware.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=10737#c5>

However, I consider it a good step towards the real fix.  It will also
help me fix <https://sourceware.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=17402>.

What this patch does, basically, is move the "syscalls_info"
struct to gdbarch.  Currently, the syscall information is stored in a
global variable inside gdb/xml-syscall.c, which means that there is no
easy way to correlate this info with the current target or
architecture being used, for example.  This causes strange behaviors,
because the syscall info is not re-read when the arch changes.  For
example, if you put a syscall catchpoint in syscall 5 on i386 (syscall
open), and then load a x86_64 program on GDB and put the same syscall
5 there (fstat on x86_64), you will still see that GDB tells you that
it is catching "open", even though it is not.  With this patch, GDB
correctly says that it will be catching fstat syscalls.

  (gdb) set architecture i386
  The target architecture is assumed to be i386
  (gdb) catch syscall 5
  Catchpoint 1 (syscall 'open' [5])
  (gdb) set architecture i386:x86-64
  The target architecture is assumed to be i386:x86-64
  (gdb) catch syscall 5
  Catchpoint 2 (syscall 'open' [5])

But with the patch:

  (gdb) set architecture i386
  The target architecture is assumed to be i386
  (gdb) catch syscall 5
  Catchpoint 1 (syscall 'open' [5])
  (gdb) set architecture i386:x86-64
  The target architecture is assumed to be i386:x86-64
  (gdb) catch syscall 5
  Catchpoint 2 (syscall 'fstat' [5])

As I said, there are still some problems on the "catch syscall"
mechanism, because (for example) the user should be able to "catch
syscall open" on i386, and then expect "open" to be caught also on
x86_64.  Currently, it doesn't work.  I intend to work on this later.

		   README for GNU development tools

This directory contains various GNU compilers, assemblers, linkers, 
debuggers, etc., plus their support routines, definitions, and documentation.

If you are receiving this as part of a GDB release, see the file gdb/README.
If with a binutils release, see binutils/README;  if with a libg++ release,
see libg++/README, etc.  That'll give you info about this
package -- supported targets, how to use it, how to report bugs, etc.

It is now possible to automatically configure and build a variety of
tools with one command.  To build all of the tools contained herein,
run the ``configure'' script here, e.g.:

	./configure 
	make

To install them (by default in /usr/local/bin, /usr/local/lib, etc),
then do:
	make install

(If the configure script can't determine your type of computer, give it
the name as an argument, for instance ``./configure sun4''.  You can
use the script ``config.sub'' to test whether a name is recognized; if
it is, config.sub translates it to a triplet specifying CPU, vendor,
and OS.)

If you have more than one compiler on your system, it is often best to
explicitly set CC in the environment before running configure, and to
also set CC when running make.  For example (assuming sh/bash/ksh):

	CC=gcc ./configure
	make

A similar example using csh:

	setenv CC gcc
	./configure
	make

Much of the code and documentation enclosed is copyright by
the Free Software Foundation, Inc.  See the file COPYING or
COPYING.LIB in the various directories, for a description of the
GNU General Public License terms under which you can copy the files.

REPORTING BUGS: Again, see gdb/README, binutils/README, etc., for info
on where and how to report problems.
