With Intel Memory Protection Extensions it was introduced the concept of
boundary violation. A boundary violations is presented to the inferior as
a segmentation fault having SIGCODE 3. This patch adds a
handler for a boundary violation extending the information displayed
when a bound violation is presented to the inferior. In the stop mode
case the debugger will also display the kind of violation: "upper" or
"lower", bounds and the address accessed.
On no stop mode the information will still remain unchanged. Additional
information about bound violations are not meaningful in that case user
does not know the line in which violation occurred as well.
When the segmentation fault handler is stop mode the out puts will be
changed as exemplified below.
The usual output of a segfault is:
Program received signal SIGSEGV, Segmentation fault
0x0000000000400d7c in upper (p=0x603010, a=0x603030, b=0x603050,
c=0x603070, d=0x603090, len=7) at i386-mpx-sigsegv.c:68
68 value = *(p + len);
In case it is a bound violation it will be presented as:
Program received signal SIGSEGV, Segmentation fault
Upper bound violation while accessing address 0x7fffffffc3b3
Bounds: [lower = 0x7fffffffc390, upper = 0x7fffffffc3a3]
0x0000000000400d7c in upper (p=0x603010, a=0x603030, b=0x603050,
c=0x603070, d=0x603090, len=7) at i386-mpx-sigsegv.c:68
68 value = *(p + len);
In mi mode the output of a segfault is:
*stopped,reason="signal-received",signal-name="SIGSEGV",
signal-meaning="Segmentation fault", frame={addr="0x0000000000400d7c",
func="upper",args=[{name="p", value="0x603010"},{name="a",value="0x603030"}

When we're looking at a tracefile trace frame where registers are not
available, and the tracepoint has only one location, we supply

Despite the documentation and the comment in xtensa_move_literals, in
the presence of --text-section-literals and --auto-litpools literals are
moved from the separate literal sections into .init and .fini, because
the check in the xtensa_move_literals is incorrect.
This moving was broken with introduction of auto litpools: some literals
now may be lost. This happens because literal frags emitted from .init
and .fini are not closed when new .literal_position marks new literal
pool. Then frag_align(2, 0, 0) changes type of the last literal frag to
rs_align. rs_align frags are skipped in the xtensa_move_literals. As a
result fixups against such literals are not moved out of .init.literal/
.fini.literal sections producing the following assembler error:
test.S: Warning: fixes not all moved from .init.literal
test.S: Internal error!
Fix check for .init.literal/.fini.literal in the xtensa_move_literals
and don't let it move literals from there in the presence of
--text-section-literals or --auto-litpools.

This patch fixes an internal error that occurs in
gdb.threads/forking-threads-plus-breakpoint.exp:
/blah/binutils-gdb/gdb/target.c:2723: internal-error: Can't determine the
current address space of thread Thread 3170.3170
In default_thread_address_space, find_inferior_ptid couldn't find 3170.3170
because it had been overwritten in inferior_appeared, called as follows:
inferior_appeared
remote_add_inferior
remote_notice_new_inferior
remote_update_thread_list
The cause of the problem was the following sequence of events:
* GDB knows only about the main thread
* the first fork event is reported to GDB, saved as pending_event
* qXfer:threads:read gets the threads from the remote.
remove_new_fork_children id's the fork child from the pending event
and removes it from the list reported to GDB. All the rest of the
threads, including the fork parent, are added to the GDB thread list.
* GDB stops all the threads. All the stop events are pushed onto the
stop reply queue behind the pending fork event. The fork waitstatus
is saved in the fork parent thread's pending status field
thread_info.suspend.
* remote_wait_ns calls queued_stop_reply and process_stop_reply to
remove the fork event from the front of the stop reply queue and save
event information in the thread_info structure for the fork parent
thread. Unfortunately, none of the information saved in this way is
the fork-specific information.
* A subsequent qXfer:threads:read packet gets the thread list including
the fork parent and fork child. remove_new_fork_children checks the
thread list to see if there is a fork parent, doesn't find one, checks
the stop reply queue for a pending fork event, doesn't find one, and
allows the fork child thread to be reported to GDB before the fork
event has been handled. remote_update_thread_list calls
remote_notice_new_thread and overwrites the current (main) thread in
inferior_appeared.
So the fork event has been reported out of target_wait but it was left
pending on the infrun side (infrun.c:save_waitstatus). IOW, the fork
event hasn't been processed by handle_inferior_event yet, so it hasn't
made it to tp->pending_follow yet.
The fix is to check thread_info.suspend along with the
thread_info.pending_follow in remote.c:remove_new_fork_children, to
prevent premature reporting of the fork child thread creation.

Just like standard_output_file, standard_temp_file should use multiple
directories to make the tests parallel-safe. However,
standard_temp_file is sometimes called in some procedures that are not
test-specific. For example, gdb_init uses it, but is called once before
all test files are ran. Therefore, we can't organize it in a
temp/gdb.subdir/testname layout, like standard_output_file.
Because it's just meant for temporary files that don't really need to be
inspected after the test, we can just put them in a directory based on
the runtest pid. There is always a single exp file being executed by a
particular runtest invocation at any given time, so it should be safe.
gdb/testsuite/ChangeLog:
* lib/gdb.exp (standard_temp_file): Return a path specific to
the runtest invocation.
In save-trace.exp, we want to test loading of a tracepoint definition
file with a relative path (I am not sure why in fact). We currently use
"savetrace-relative.tr", which ends up directly in testsuite/. If we
use [standard_output_file] on that path, it becomes absolute. I decided
to just replace [pwd] with . (a dot) in the path given by
standard_output_file to make it relative. However, this trick only
works because [pwd] is a prefix of the standard output directory. So I
added a check to verify that precondition.
gdb/testsuite/ChangeLog:
* gdb.trace/save-trace.exp: Change relative path to be in the
standard output directory.
x86_64_mov_to_lea5.o and x86_64_mov_to_lea6.o must be assembled with
