- Subject: [patch rfc] Make SAVED_PC_AFTER_CALL optional. Deprecate?
Hello,
This makes the SAVED_PC_AFTER_CALL optional; removing the d10v
implementation. The comment that goes with the patch should explain the
rationale.
I'll commit in a day or so.
Baring problems, it will be followed up with the deprecation of
SAVED_PC_AFTER_CALL.

* gdbarch.sh (SAVED_PC_AFTER_CALL): Add a predicate.
* gdbarch.h, gdbarch.c: Re-generate.
* d10v-tdep.c (d10v_saved_pc_after_call): Delete function.
(d10v_gdbarch_init): Do not set saved_pc_after_call.
* infrun.c (step_over_function): Call SAVED_PC_AFTER_CALL_P
conditionally, using frame_pc_unwind as an alternative. Add
comments.
* arch-utils.c (init_frame_pc_default): Only call
SAVED_PC_AFTER_CALL when available.

+ consequently, the return pc has not yet been saved. It should be
+ noted that the prologue analyzer needs to handle this case
+ anyway: frameless leaf functions that don't save the return PC;
+ single stepping through a prologue.
