Add DW_OP_LLVM_extend DWARF operation
Previous changes allow a new set of more complex DWARF expression
operations to be added which are very usefull for SIMD/SIMT like
architectures. First of which is the DW_OP_LLVM_extend operation
that pops one stack element (which must be a location description)
and treat it as a number of pieces of a new composite location
description.
This means that a resulting composite location contains a given
number of pieces of a given bit size, where all the pieces are
described by the same location description found on top of the stack.
gdb/ChangeLog:
* compile/compile-loc2c.c (compute_stack_depth_worker): Add
new DW_OP_LLVM_extend operation support.
* dwarf2/expr.c (dwarf_expr_context::create_extend_composite):
New method that creates the extend composite.
(dwarf_expr_context::execute_stack_op): Add new
DW_OP_LLVM_extend operation support.
* dwarf2/loc.c (dwarf2_get_symbol_read_needs): Add new
DW_OP_LLVM_extend operation support.
(disassemble_dwarf_expression): Add new DW_OP_LLVM_extend
operation support.
