The other implementation option here would be

     guint oldlen = array->len;
     g_byte_array_set_size(array, oldlen + len);
     memset(array->data + oldlen, 0, len);

For length values < 16 my guess is the perf difference is
not going to be noticeable though.

I thought about it but I'd rather not access GByteArray internals.

On ARM it is called with size=12:

target/arm/gdbstub.c:50:        memset(mem_buf, 0, 12);

On Xtensa it is only used with unimplemented registers:

         qemu_log_mask(LOG_UNIMP, "%s from reg %d of unsupported type %d\n",
                       __func__, n, reg->type);

If you prefer I can use a static empty buffer of 16 bytes and copy from it:

static inline int gdb_get_zeroes(GByteArray *array, size_t len)
{
     static const uint8_t zeroed_buf[16] = { };

     g_byte_array_append(array, zeroed_buf, MIN(len, sizeof(zeroed_buf)));
     for (size_t i = sizeof(zeroed_buf); i < len; i++) {
         gdb_get_reg8(array, '\0');
     }

     return len;
}

AIUI ->len and ->data are not internals -- they're
in the documentation as "public fields" and the code
example for GByteArray directly accesses ->data.
(Contrast GBytes, where there are no defined public
fields and instead there are functions g_bytes_get_data
and g_bytes_get_size.)

They are - and I do it in a few places in the gdbstub when it's easier
than going long form. FWIW I prefer Peter's formulation.

Queued to for-5.0/more-random-fixes with Peter's alternative.
