Subject: [PATCHv3 1/3] fix matching errors for overwritten registers in x86 CFI generation script
thanks to R. Felker for noticing 2 separate problems:
- binary ops like ADD, AND, etc. overwrite the 2nd operand, not the 1st.
this confusion resulted from mixing up Intel and GNU asm syntax.
- the regexps used to identify clobbered registers would erroneously match
index registers. in other words, the following asm:
mov $0, (%eax,%ebx,4)
...would cause EBX to be considered as overwritten, which might prevent a
debugger from displaying a variable's value in a higher stack frame.
---
Here is the latest iteration. I have merged 2 previously separate commits, and
fixed up the matching of registers (for the purpose of identifying overwritten
registers).
As usual, thanks for the feedback. AD
