Pedro Alves 5ce0145de7 "tfind" across unavailable-stack frames.
Like when stepping, the current stack frame location is expected to be
printed as result of tfind command, if that results in moving to a
different function.  In tfind_1 we see:

  if (from_tty
      && (has_stack_frames () || traceframe_number >= 0))
    {
      enum print_what print_what;

      /* NOTE: in imitation of the step command, try to determine
         whether we have made a transition from one function to
         another.  If so, we'll print the "stack frame" (ie. the new
         function and it's arguments) -- otherwise we'll just show the
         new source line.  */

      if (frame_id_eq (old_frame_id,
                       get_frame_id (get_current_frame ())))
        print_what = SRC_LINE;
      else
        print_what = SRC_AND_LOC;

      print_stack_frame (get_selected_frame (NULL), 1, print_what, 1);
      do_displays ();
    }

However, when we haven't collected any registers in the tracepoint
(collect $regs), that doesn't actually work:

 (gdb) tstart
 (gdb) info tracepoints
 Num     Type           Disp Enb Address    What
 1       tracepoint     keep y   0x080483b7 in func0
                                            at ../.././../git/gdb/testsuite/gdb.trace/circ.c:28
         collect testload
     installed on target
 2       tracepoint     keep y   0x080483bc in func1
                                            at ../.././../git/gdb/testsuite/gdb.trace/circ.c:32
         collect testload
     installed on target
 (gdb) c
 Continuing.

 Breakpoint 3, end () at ../.././../git/gdb/testsuite/gdb.trace/circ.c:72
 72    }
 (gdb) tstop
 (gdb) tfind start
 Found trace frame 0, tracepoint 1
 #0  func0 () at ../.././../git/gdb/testsuite/gdb.trace/circ.c:28
 28    }
 (gdb) tfind
 Found trace frame 1, tracepoint 2
 32    }
 (gdb)

When we don't have info about the stack available
(UNWIND_UNAVAILABLE), frames end up with outer_frame_id as frame ID.
And in the scenario above, the issue is that both frames before and
after the second tfind (the frames for func0 an func1) have the same
id (outer_frame_id), so the frame_id_eq check returns false, even
though the frames were of different functions.  GDB knows that,
because the PC is inferred from the tracepoint's address, even if no
registers were collected.

To fix this, this patch adds support for frame ids with a valid code
address, but <unavailable> stack address, and then makes the unwinders
use that instead of the catch-all outer_frame_id for such frames.  The
frame_id_eq check in tfind_1 then automatically does the right thing
as expected.

I tested with --directory=gdb.trace/ , before/after the patch, and
compared the resulting gdb.logs, then adjusted the tests to expect the
extra output that came out.  Turns out that was only circ.exp, the
original test that actually brought this issue to light.

Tested on x86_64 Fedora 17, native and gdbserver.

		   README for GNU development tools

This directory contains various GNU compilers, assemblers, linkers, 
debuggers, etc., plus their support routines, definitions, and documentation.

If you are receiving this as part of a GDB release, see the file gdb/README.
If with a binutils release, see binutils/README;  if with a libg++ release,
see libg++/README, etc.  That'll give you info about this
package -- supported targets, how to use it, how to report bugs, etc.

It is now possible to automatically configure and build a variety of
tools with one command.  To build all of the tools contained herein,
run the ``configure'' script here, e.g.:

	./configure 
	make

To install them (by default in /usr/local/bin, /usr/local/lib, etc),
then do:
	make install

(If the configure script can't determine your type of computer, give it
the name as an argument, for instance ``./configure sun4''.  You can
use the script ``config.sub'' to test whether a name is recognized; if
it is, config.sub translates it to a triplet specifying CPU, vendor,
and OS.)

If you have more than one compiler on your system, it is often best to
explicitly set CC in the environment before running configure, and to
also set CC when running make.  For example (assuming sh/bash/ksh):

	CC=gcc ./configure
	make

A similar example using csh:

	setenv CC gcc
	./configure
	make

Much of the code and documentation enclosed is copyright by
the Free Software Foundation, Inc.  See the file COPYING or
COPYING.LIB in the various directories, for a description of the
GNU General Public License terms under which you can copy the files.

REPORTING BUGS: Again, see gdb/README, binutils/README, etc., for info
on where and how to report problems.
