VxWorks uses x18 as the TCB, so STATIC_CHAIN_REGNUM has long been set
(in gcc/config/aarch64/aarch64-vxworks.h) to use x9 instead.
This patch marks x18 as fixed on TARGET_VXWORKS, so that it is not
chosen by the register allocator, and adjusts tests that depend on x18
or on the static chain register.
Tested (with gcc-14) on aarch64-vxworks7r2. Ok to install?
for gcc/ChangeLog
* config/aarch64/aarch64.c (aarch64_conditional_register_usage):
Mark x18 as fixed on VxWorks.
for gcc/testsuite/ChangeLog
* gcc.dg/cwsc1.c (CHAIN, aarch64): x9 instead x18 for __vxworks.
* gcc.target/aarch64/reg-alloc-4.c: Drop x18-assigned asm
operand on vxworks.
* gcc.target/aarch64/shadow_call_stack_1.c: Don't expect
-ffixed-x18 error on vxworks.

More tolerance and less prejudice are key for inclusion and diversity.
Excluding neuro-others for not behaving ""normal"" is *not* inclusive!
