libunwind-eh_elf/TODO

- According to Nicholas S. Wourms <nwourms@netscape.net>, adding this to the
  Makefile.am:
	AUTOMAKE_OPTIONS = 1.6 subdir-objects
  ensures that object-files are build in separate subdirectories and that
  in turn makes it possible for source files in different directories to
  have the same filename, thus avoiding the need for those ugly -x86, -ia64, etc.,
  postfixes.
- Update the libunwind man page for the new/fixed cache-flushing behavior.
  Effectively, that unw_flush_cache() doesn't have to be called by
  applications except for extraordinary circumstances (e.g., if application
  implements its own runtime loader).
- document split local-only/generic libraries and separate libunwind-ptrace.a
  convenience-library
- document new "tdep" member in unw_proc_info_t structure
- for DWARF 2, use a dummy CIE entry with an augmentation that
  provides the dyn-info-list-address

=== taken care of:

Testing:
	+ ensure that saving r4-r7 in a stacked register properly preserves
	  the NaT bit, even in the face of register-rotation
	+ ensure that IA64_INSN_MOVE_STACKED works correctly in the face of
	  register rotation
	+ on Linux, test access to f32-f127 in a signal handler (e.g., verify
	  that fph partition gets initialized properly)
+ Switch ia64 (and rest over) to using Debug() instead of debug()
+ implement non-local versions of dwarf_readXX()
+ consolidate mostly architecture-independent code such as
  unw_get_accessors() into shared files
+ caching is pretty fundamentally broken, what should happen is this:
   o On unw_init_local()/unw_init_remote(), libunwind should validate
     that the cached information is still valid and, if not, flush the
     cache on its own.  Rationale: once unw_init_local() has been
     called, it is clear that the unwind info for the calling thread
     cannot change (otherwise the program would be buggy anyhow) and
     hence it is sufficient to validate the cache at this point.
     Similarly, once unw_init_remote() has been called, the target
     address space must have been stopped, because the unwinding would
     otherwise be unreliable anyhow.
   o glibc currently lacks a feature for dl_iterate_phdr() to support
     safe caching; I proposed on 12/16/2003 that glibc maintain two
     atomic counters which get inremented whenever something is added
     to/removed from the dl_iterate_phdr-list.  Once we have such counters,
     we can use them in libunwind to implement an efficient version of a
     cache-validation routine.
   Once this has been fixed, update the libunwind man page accordingly.
   Effectively, what this means is that unw_flush_cache() doesn't have
   to be called by applications except for extraordinary circumstances
   (e.g., if application implements its own runtime loader).
+ man-page for unw_is_fpreg()
+ man-page for _U_dyn_cancel()
+ man-page for _U_dyn_register()
+ global data is not protected by a lock; causes problems if two threads
  call ia64_init() at almost the same time
+ cache the value of *cfm_loc; each rotate_FOO() call needs it!
+ implement the remote-lookup of the dynamic registration list
+ when doing sigreturn, must restore fp regs (and perhaps other regs) the same
  way as the (user-level) gate.S sigreturn path does!
+ unw_resume() must at least restore gp (r1)!  consider restoring all
  scratch regs (but what's the performance impact on exception handling?);
  alternative: restore scratch regs that may be used during procedure
  call/return (e.g., r8-r11, f8-f11)
+ implement unw_resume() for the case where the current register frame is split
  across multiple backing stores
+ document restricions on using unw_resume():
+ implement remote cases of unw_resume()
+ test both with UNW_LOCAL_ONLY and without where this makes sense
+ allow region-length (insn_count) in unw_dyn_region_info_t to be negative
  to indicate counting from the end of the procedure (to make it possible
  for differently-sized procedures to share the same region list if they
  share the same prologue/epilogue).
+ it appears that it is currently not possible to read register UNW_IA64_TP;
  fix that => no, attempts to access r13 will result in access_reg() callbacks,
  as desired; for local-case, access to r13 will fail though (since
  getcontext() doesn't, and shouldn't, capture r13)
+ document the special nature of UNW_IA64_GP: read-only, but adjusted
  automatically if the IP is changed
+ use pthread-mutexes where necessary, atomic ops where possible
