rin | For booke and ibm4xx, switch to software-based single-stepping for PT_STEP
ptrace(2) command from broken hardware-based implementation.
As described in proposal on port-powerpc@,
http://mail-index.netbsd.org/port-powerpc/2021/02/26/msg003597.html
hardware debug facilities of booke and 4xx use critical interrupts, that
are difficult to handle for this purpose; they are not automatically masked
when entering kernel mode via system call trap or hardware interrupt.
See my proposal above for more details.
Now, hardware debug facilities are exclusively usable by kernel itself.
They are much more functional than PSL_SE MSR bit of oea, and should be
useful to, e.g., support byte-granular watchpoint for DDB in the future.

Fix the machine-dependent ptrace requests to respect LWP number
Fix the machine-dependent ptrace register-related requests (e.g.
PT_GETXMMREGS, PT_GETXSTATE on x86) to correctly respect the LWP number
passed as the data argument. Before this change, these requests
did not operate on the requested LWP of a multithreaded program.
This change required moving ptrace_update_lwp() out of unit scope,
and changing ptrace_machdep_dorequest() function to take a pointer
to pointer as the second argument, consistently with ptrace_regs().
I am planning to extend the ATF ptrace() register tests in the future
to check for regressions in multithreaded programs, as time permits.

rin | Fix inconsistency b/w kernel and userland recognitions of TLS, as well as
inconsistency whether it is biased or not in kernel.
- Obsolete __lwp_settcb() in order to let kernel know new TLS address via
_lwp_setprivate(2). Alternatively, we can call _lwp_setprivate(2) within
__lwp_settcb() like mips, but it is just double handling; we adjust %r2
appropriately in _lwp_setprivate(2) via cpu_lwp_setprivate().
- Make sure that, like other ports, l_private represents address of tcb,
not biased one as in %r2. This guarantees that the returned values from
_lwp_getprivate(2) and __lwp_getprivate_fast() are always same. Also,
we can obsolete PTRACE_LWP_GETPRIVATE() macro.
Now, *_pl_private tests in tests/lib/libc/sys successfully pass, while
no other tests become newly falling.

kamil | Introduce PT_LWPSTATUS + PT_LWPNEXT, obsolete PT_LWPINFO
PT_LWPINFO is a legacy ptrace(2) operation that was originally intended
to retrieve the thread (LWP) information inside a traced process.
It has a number of flaws and is confused with PT_LWPINFO from FreeBSD.
PT_LWPSTATUS and PT_LWPNEXT address the problems (shortly by: rename,
removal of pl_event) and introduces new features: signal context
(pl_sigpend, pl_sigmask), LWP name (pl_name), LWP TLS base address
(pl_private). The private pointer was so far missing information for
a debugger.
PT_LWPSTATUS@nnn is now shipped with core(5) files and contain LWP specific
information, so far missed in the core(5) files.
PT_LWPSTATUS retrieves LWP information for the prompted thread.
PT_LWPNEXT retrieves LWP information for the next thread, borrowing the
semantics from NetBSD specific PT_LWPINFO.
PT_LWPINFO is namespaced with __LEGACY_PT_LWPINFO and still available for
the foreseeable future, without plans of removing it.
Add ATF tests for PT_LWPSTATUS + PT_LWPNEXT.
Keep ATF tests for PT_LWPINFO.
Switch GDB to new API.
Proposed on tech-kern@.

kamil | Introduce PTRACE_REG_FP() a helper macro to retrieve the frame pointer
The macro is dummy for ia64 (the FP register is unknown and can change
freely) and sparc/sparc64 (not stored in struct reg).

kamil | branches: 1.13.14;
Add new ptrace(2) API: PT_SETSTEP & PT_CLEARSTEP
These operations allow to mark thread as a single-stepping one.
This allows to i.a.:
- single step and emit a signal (PT_SETSTEP & PT_CONTINUE)
- single step and trace syscall entry and exit (PT_SETSTEP & PT_SYSCALL)
The former is useful for debuggers like GDB or LLDB. The latter can be used
to singlestep a usermode kernel. These examples don't limit use-cases of
this interface.
Define PT_*STEP only for platforms defining PT_STEP.
Add new ATF tests setstep[1234].
These ptrace(2) operations first appeared in FreeBSD.

sparc/esp_sbus. alpha should work as well (untested yet).
siop, ahc and bha will be updated once I've updated the branch to current
-current, as well as machine-dependant code.
