Anton Kolesov 6d2d7c5668 gdbserver: Add GNU/Linux support for ARC
This gdbserver implementation supports ARC ABI v3 and v4 (older ARC ABI
versions are not supported by other modern GNU tools or Linux itself).
Gdbserver supports inspection of ARC HS registers R30, R58 and R59 - feature
that has been added to Linux 4.12.  Whether gdbserver build will actually
support this feature depends on the version of Linux headers used to build
the server.

v2 [1]:
- Use "this->read_memory ()" instead of "the_target->read_memory ()".
- Remove the unnecessary "arch-arc.o:" target from the "Makefile.in".
- Got rid of "ntohs()" function and added lots of comments about
  endianness.
- Clarify why "pc" value is read from and saved to different fields
  in user regs struct.
- In function "is_reg_name_available_p()", use a range-based iterator
  to loop over the registers.
- Removed mentioning of issue number that was not related to sourceware.
- A few typo's fixed.

		   README for GNU development tools

This directory contains various GNU compilers, assemblers, linkers, 
debuggers, etc., plus their support routines, definitions, and documentation.

If you are receiving this as part of a GDB release, see the file gdb/README.
If with a binutils release, see binutils/README;  if with a libg++ release,
see libg++/README, etc.  That'll give you info about this
package -- supported targets, how to use it, how to report bugs, etc.

It is now possible to automatically configure and build a variety of
tools with one command.  To build all of the tools contained herein,
run the ``configure'' script here, e.g.:

	./configure 
	make

To install them (by default in /usr/local/bin, /usr/local/lib, etc),
then do:
	make install

(If the configure script can't determine your type of computer, give it
the name as an argument, for instance ``./configure sun4''.  You can
use the script ``config.sub'' to test whether a name is recognized; if
it is, config.sub translates it to a triplet specifying CPU, vendor,
and OS.)

If you have more than one compiler on your system, it is often best to
explicitly set CC in the environment before running configure, and to
also set CC when running make.  For example (assuming sh/bash/ksh):

	CC=gcc ./configure
	make

A similar example using csh:

	setenv CC gcc
	./configure
	make

Much of the code and documentation enclosed is copyright by
the Free Software Foundation, Inc.  See the file COPYING or
COPYING.LIB in the various directories, for a description of the
GNU General Public License terms under which you can copy the files.

REPORTING BUGS: Again, see gdb/README, binutils/README, etc., for info
on where and how to report problems.
