New memory-tag commands
Add new commands under the "memory-tag" prefix to allow users to inspect,
modify and check memory tags in different ways.
The available subcommands are the following:
- memory-tag print-logical-tag <expression>: Prints the logical tag for a
particular address.
- memory-tag withltag <expression> <tag>: Prints the address tagged with the
logical tag <tag>.
- memory-tag print-allocation-tag <expression>: Prints the allocation tag for
a particular address.
- memory-tag setatag <expression> <length> <tags>: Sets one or more allocation
tags to the specified tags.
- memory-tag check <expression>: Checks if the logical tag in <address>
matches its allocation tag.
These commands make use of the memory tagging gdbarch methods, and are still
available, but disabled, when memory tagging is not supported by the
architecture.
I've pondered about a way to make these commands invisible when memory tagging
is not available, but given the check is at runtime (and support may come and go
based on a process' configuration), that is a bit too late in the process to
either not include the commands or get rid of them.
Ideas are welcome.
