  41 * gdb remote procotol (well most versions of it) expects the following
  42 * register layout.
  43 *
  44 * General purpose regs:
  45 *     r0-r30: 64 bit
  46 *     sp,pc : 64 bit
  47 *     pstate  : 32 bit
  48 *     Total: 33 + 1
  49 * FPU regs:
  50 *     f0-f31: 128 bit
  51 *     fpsr & fpcr: 32 bit
  52 *     Total: 32 + 2
  53 *
  54 * To expand a little on the "most versions of it"... when the gdb remote
  55 * protocol for AArch64 was developed it depended on a statement in the
  56 * Architecture Reference Manual that claimed "SPSR_ELx is a 32-bit register".
  57 * and, as a result, allocated only 32-bits for the PSTATE in the remote
  58 * protocol. In fact this statement is still present in ARM DDI 0487A.i.
  59 *
  60 * Unfortunately "is a 32-bit register" has a very special meaning for
  61 * system registers. It means that "the upper bits, bits[63:32], are
  62 * RES0.". RES0 is heavily used in the ARM architecture documents as a
  63 * way to leave space for future architecture changes. So to translate a
  64 * little for people who don't spend their spare time reading ARM architecture
  65 * manuals, what "is a 32-bit register" actually means in this context is
  66 * "is a 64-bit register but one with no meaning allocated to any of the
  67 * upper 32-bits... *yet*".
  68 *
  69 * Perhaps then we should not be surprised that this has led to some
  70 * confusion. Specifically a patch, influenced by the above translation,
  71 * that extended PSTATE to 64-bit was accepted into gdb-7.7 but the patch
  72 * was reverted in gdb-7.8.1 and all later releases, when this was
  73 * discovered to be an undocumented protocol change.
  74 *
  75 * So... it is *not* wrong for us to only allocate 32-bits to PSTATE
  76 * here even though the kernel itself allocates 64-bits for the same
  77 * state. That is because this bit of code tells the kernel how the gdb
  78 * remote protocol (well most versions of it) describes the register state.
  79 *
  80 * Note that if you are using one of the versions of gdb that supports
  81 * the gdb-7.7 version of the protocol you cannot use kgdb directly
  82 * without providing a custom register description (gdb can load new
  83 * protocol descriptions at runtime).
