This patch is a preparation of gdb stack unwinding support. "set" command
is extended with gdb context change:

crash> set <pid>
or
crash> set <task>

Then the task context of crash and gdb will both be switched to
pid/task, and the following command: "bt" "gdb bt" will output
the same task context.

This function looks weird to me. Can you try to refactor this one?

For example:

+static void supply_registers(struct regcache *regcache, int regno)
+{
+        gdb_byte regval[16];
+        struct gdbarch *arch = regcache->arch ();
+        const char *regname = gdbarch_register_name(arch, regno);
+        int regsize = register_size(arch, regno);
+
+        if (regsize > sizeof (regval))
+                error (_("fatal error: buffer size is not enough to fit register value"));
+
+        if (crash_get_current_task_reg (regno, regname, regsize, (void *)&regval))
+                regcache->raw_supply (regno, regval);
+        else
+                regcache->raw_supply (regno, NULL);
+}

void
crash_target::fetch_registers (struct regcache *regcache, int regno)
{
  int r;

  if (regno >= 0) {
          supply_registers(regcache, regno);
          return;
  }

  for (r = 0; regno == -1 && r < gdbarch_num_regs (regcache->arch ()); r++)
            supply_registers(regcache, r);

}


That can avoid jumping into a for-loop code block with goto.

And It looks more friendly and readable. Just an idea, What do you think?


Thanks

Lianbo
