PATCH: new "void" memory region attribute
- From: Greg McGary <gkm at kayak dot mcgary dot org>
- To: gdb-patches at sources dot redhat dot com
- Date: 13 Feb 2002 17:25:52 -0700
- Subject: PATCH: new "void" memory region attribute
Add "void" attribute, which disallows both read & write access. This
useful for guarding holes in a target's address space that cause the
system to hang when read/written.
OK to commit?
gdb:
2002-02-13 Greg McGary <greg@mcgary.org>
* memattr.h (enum mem_access_mode): s/MEM_RO/MEM_READ/
s/MEM_WO/MEM_WRITE/. New member MEM_VOID.
* memattr.c (mem_command, mem_info_command): Handle MEM_VOID.
* target.c (target_xfer_memory, target_xfer_memory_partial):
Check read/write validity with bit test.
* dcache.c (dcache_write_line, dcache_read_line): Likewise.

* gdb.texinfo (Memory Region Attributes): Describe `void' attribute.
