Yao Qi cc9f16aa88 PR record/18691: Fix fails in solib-precsave.exp
We see the following regressions in testing on x86_64-linux,

 reverse-step^M
 Cannot access memory at address 0x2aaaaaed26c0^M
 (gdb) FAIL: gdb.reverse/solib-precsave.exp: reverse-step into solib function one

when GDB reverse step into a function, GDB wants to skip prologue so
it requests TARGET_OBJECT_CODE_MEMORY to read some code memory in
memory_xfer_partial_1.  However in dcache_read_memory_partial, the object
becomes TARGET_OBJECT_MEMORY

      return ops->to_xfer_partial (ops, TARGET_OBJECT_MEMORY, NULL,
                                   myaddr, NULL, memaddr, len,
                                   xfered_len);

in reverse debugging, ops->to_xfer_partial is record_full_core_xfer_partial
and it will return TARGET_XFER_E_IO because it can't find any records.
The test fails.

At this moment, the delegate relationship is like

  dcache -> record-core -> core -> exec

and we want to GDB read memory across targets, which means if the
requested memory isn't found in record-core, GDB can read memory from
core, and exec even further if needed.  I find raw_memory_xfer_partial
is exactly what I want.

README

		   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.
