[Qemu-devel] [PATCH v3 1/3] target/ppc: Add SPRs XML generation code for gdbstub

[Fabiano Rosas <farosas@linux.ibm.com>]

A following patch will add support for handling the Special Purpose
Registers (SPR) in GDB via gdbstub. For that purpose, GDB needs to be
provided with an XML description of the registers (see gdb-xml
directory).

This patch adds the code that generates the XML dynamically based on
the SPRs already defined in the machine. This eliminates the need for
several XML files to match each possible ppc machine.

A "group" is defined so that the GDB command `info registers spr` can
be used.
