Add new set/show commands to set the processor that is used for enabling errata workarounds when decoding branch trace. The general format is "<vendor>:<identifier>" but we also allow two special values "auto" and "none". The default is "auto", which is the current behaviour of having GDB determine the processor on which the trace was recorded. If that cpu is not known to the trace decoder, e.g. when using an old decoder on a new system, decode may fail with "unknown cpu". In most cases it should suffice to 'downgrade' decode to assume an older cpu. Unfortunately, we can't do this automatically. The other special value, "none", disables errata workarounds. gdb/ * NEWS (New options): announce set/show record btrace cpu. * btrace.c: Include record-btrace.h. (btrace_compute_ftrace_pt): Skip enabling errata workarounds if the vendor is unknown. (btrace_compute_ftrace_1): Add cpu parameter. Update callers. Maybe overwrite the btrace configuration's cpu. (btrace_compute_ftrace): Add cpu parameter. Update callers. (btrace_fetch): Add cpu parameter. Update callers. (btrace_maint_update_pt_packets): Call record_btrace_get_cpu. Maybe overwrite the btrace configuration's cpu. Skip enabling errata workarounds if the vendor is unknown. * python/py-record-btrace.c: Include record-btrace.h. (recpy_bt_begin, recpy_bt_end, recpy_bt_instruction_history) (recpy_bt_function_call_history): Call record_btrace_get_cpu. * record-btrace.c (record_btrace_cpu_state_kind): New.
