Adding GDB Python script for Crash server debug session setup #64

Closed ppetrovic98 closed 6 months ago

ppetrovic98 commented 6 months ago

GDB Python script that defines save_regs and set_regs GDB custom commands.
'save_regs' - reading IP, SP and BP register values from corefile.
'set_regs' - setting current (live) registers to values read from corefile.
The save_regs command should be executed after loading a corefile but before connecting GDB to Crash server.
The load_regs command is used after connecting GDB to Crash server.

The GDB python script is placed inside lldb/tools/lldb-crash-server/gdb-interop folder, but if you think that it should be placed somewhere else, please let me know.

I just updated PR with newest changes. Since GDB script is mostly different, I changed previous commit and commit message.
