Hi,

For the record, the layout looks OK to me.

So a Reviewed-by?


Yes.

Just a reminder that GDB will soon support bfloat16 types. A patch may
be pushed this month.

Will we be able to probe for the support - or will an older GDB silently
accept and drop any bfloat16 fields?


No probing unfortunately. I think GDB wouldn't handle it nicely. Older GDB's not supporting bfloat16 may throw an internal error when they see an unknown type.

That may need to be corrected to make it more robust.

While GDB can work with any XML description given to it there is
special handling for SVE registers on the GDB side which makes the
users life a little better. The changes aren't that major and all the
registers save the $vg reported the same. All that changes is:

    - report org.gnu.gdb.aarch64.sve
    - use gdb nomenclature for names and types
    - minor re-ordering of the types to match reference
    - re-enable ieee_half (as we know gdb supports it now)
    - $vg is now a 64 bit int
    - check $vN and $zN aliasing in test
