/* Supply the ABI-specified state of DWARF CFI before CIE initial programs.

   The DWARF 3.0 spec says that the default initial states of all registers
   are "undefined", unless otherwise specified by the machine/compiler ABI.

   This default is wrong for every machine with the CFI generated by GCC.
   The EH unwinder does not really distinguish "same_value" and "undefined",
   since it doesn't matter for unwinding (in either case there is no change
   to make for that register).  GCC generates CFI that says nothing at all
   about registers it hasn't spilled somewhere.  For our unwinder to give
   the true story, the backend must supply an initial state that uses
   "same_value" rules for all the callee-saves registers.

   This can fill in the initial_instructions, initial_instructions_end
   members of *ABI_INFO to point at a CFI instruction stream to process
   before each CIE's initial instructions.  It should set the
   data_alignment_factor member if it affects the initial instructions.

   The callback should not use the register rules DW_CFA_expression or
   DW_CFA_val_expression.  Defining the CFA using DW_CFA_def_cfa_expression
   is allowed.  This is an implementation detail since register rules
   store expressions as offsets from the .eh_frame or .debug_frame data.

   As a shorthand for some common cases, for this instruction stream
   we overload some CFI instructions that cannot be used in a CIE:

	DW_CFA_restore		-- Change default rule for all unmentioned
				   registers from undefined to same_value.

   This function can also fill in ABI_INFO->return_address_register with the
   DWARF register number that identifies the actual PC in machine state.
   If there is no canonical DWARF register number with that meaning, it's
   left unchanged (callers usually initialize with (Dwarf_Word) -1).
   This value is not used by CFI per se.

   Function returns 0 on success and -1 for error or unsupported by the
   backend.  */
