Commit Message

Aktemur, Tankut Baris Dec. 30, 2024, 10:49 a.m. UTC
  This is a refactoring that converts

  init_register_cache (struct regcache *regcache,
                       const struct target_desc *tdesc,
                       unsigned char *regbuf)

into the constructor

  regcache (const target_desc *tdesc, unsigned char *regbuf)

and converts

  new_register_cache (const struct target_desc *tdesc)

into the constructor

  regcache (const target_desc *tdesc)

Also use DISABLE_COPY_AND_ASSIGN for additional compile-time safety.

Tested by rebuilding gdbserver with '--enable-inprocess-agent=no' and
with '--enable-inprocess-agent=yes'.

These could be initialized in an initialization list.

Same here.

I don't think the "Constructors" is that helpful.  On the other hand, I
would appreciate a comment saying what the constructor with `regbuf`
does differently from the other one (I guess use that buffer to store
register data instead of dynamically allocating?).

`regcache ()` becomes unnecessary.
