Carl Love 2a8339b71f PowerPC: fix for gdb.reverse/finish-precsave.exp and gdb.reverse/finish-reverse.exp
PPC64 multiple entry points, a normal entry point and an alternate entry
point.  The alternate entry point is to setup the Table of Contents (TOC)
register before continuing at the normal entry point.  When the TOC is
already valid, the normal entry point is used, this is typically the case.
The alternate entry point is typically referred to as the global entry
point (GEP) in IBM.  The normal entry point is typically referred to as
the local entry point (LEP).

When GDB is executing the finish command in reverse, the function
finish_backward currently sets the break point at the alternate entry point.
This issue is if the function, when executing in the forward direction,
entered the function via the normal entry point, execution in the reverse
direction will never sees the break point at the alternate entry point.  In
this case, the reverse execution continues until the next break point is
encountered thus stopping at the wrong place.

This patch adds a new address to struct execution_control_state to hold the
address of the alternate entry point (GEP).  The finish_backwards function
is updated, if the stopping point is between the normal entry point (LEP)
and the end of the function, a breakpoint is set at the normal entry point.
If the stopping point is between the entry points, a breakpoint is set at
the alternate entry point.  This ensures that GDB will always stop at the
normal entry point.  If the function did enter via the alternate entry
point, GDB will detect that and continue to execute backwards in the
function until the alternate entry point is reached.

The patch fixes the behavior of the reverse-finish command on PowerPC to
match the behavior of the command on other platforms, specifically X86.
The patch does not change the behavior of the command on X86.

A new test is added to verify the reverse-finish command on PowerPC
correctly stops at the instruction where the function call is made.

The patch fixes 11 regression errors in test gdb.reverse/finish-precsave.exp
and 11 regression errors in test gdb.reverse/finish-reverse.exp.

The patch has been tested on Power 10 and X86 processor with no new
regression failures.

# This file is part of the GDB testsuite. It tests reverse stepping.
# Lots of code borrowed from "step-test.exp".
# The reverse finish command should return from a function and stop on
# the first instruction of the source line where the function call is made.
# Specifically, the behavior should match doing a reverse next from the
# first instruction in the function. GDB should only take one reverse step
# or next statement to reach the previous source code line.
# This testcase verifies the reverse-finish command stops at the first
# instruction in the source code line where the function was called. There
# are two scenarios that must be checked:
# 1) gdb is at the entry point instruction for the function
# 2) gdb is in the body of the function.
# This test verifies the fix for gdb bugzilla:
# https://sourceware.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=29927
# PowerPC supports two entry points to a function. The normal entry point
# is called the local entry point (LEP). The alternate entry point is called
# the global entry point (GEP). A function call via a function pointer
# will entry via the GEP. A normal function call will enter via the LEP.
#
# This test has been expanded to include tests to verify the reverse-finish
# command works properly if the function is called via the GEP. The original
# test only verified the reverse-finish command for a normal call that used
# the LEP.
