This applies the second part of GDB's End of Year Procedure, which
updates the copyright year range in all of GDB's files.
gdb/ChangeLog:
Update copyright year range in all GDB files.
gdb_interact is a small utility that we have found quite useful to debug
test cases.
Putting gdb_interact in a test suspends it and allows to interact with
gdb to inspect whatever you want. You can then type ">>>" to resume the
test execution. Of course, this is only for gdb devs. It wouldn't make
sense to leave a gdb_interact permanently in a test case.
When starting the interaction with the user, the script prints this
banner:
+------------------------------------------+
| Script interrupted, you can now interact |
| with by gdb. Type >>> to continue. |
+------------------------------------------+
Notes:
* When gdb is launched, the gdb_spawn_id variable (lib/gdb.exp) is
assigned -1. Given the name, I would expect it to contain the gdb
expect spawn id, which is needed for interact. I changed all places
that set gdb_spawn_id to -1 to set it to the actual gdb spawn id
instead.
* When entering the "interact" mode, the last (gdb) prompt is already
eaten by expect, so it doesn't show up on the terminal. Subsequent
prompts do appear though. We tried to print "(gdb)" just before the
interact to replace it. However, it could be misleading if you are
debugging an MI test case, it makes you think that you are typing in a
CLI prompt, when in reality it's MI. In the end I decided that since
the feature is for developers who know what they're doing and that one
is normally consciously using gdb_interact, the script doesn't need
to babysit the user.
* There are probably some quirks depending on where in the script
gdb_interact appears (e.g. it could interfere with following
commands and make them fail), but it works for most cases. Quirks can
always be fixed later.
The idea and original implementation was contributed by Anders
Granlund, a colleague of mine. Thanks to him.
gdb/testsuite/ChangeLog:
* gdb.base/statistics.exp: Assign spawn id to gdb_spawn_id.
* gdb.base/valgrind-db-attach.exp: Same.
* gdb.base/valgrind-infcall.exp: Same.
* lib/mi-support.exp (default_mi_gdb_start): Same.
* lib/prompt.exp (default_prompt_gdb_start): Same.
* lib/gdb.exp (default_gdb_spawn): Same.
(gdb_interact): New.
Two modifications:
1. The addition of 2013 to the copyright year range for every file;
2. The use of a single year range, instead of potentially multiple
year ranges, as approved by the FSF.
* gdb.base/break-entry.exp: Move the target use_gdb_stub test before
starting GDB.
* gdb.base/default.exp: Replace target use_gdb_stub checks by global
$use_gdb_stub.
* gdb.base/display.exp: Likewise.
* gdb.base/ending-run.exp: Likewise.
* gdb.base/list.exp (test_listsize): Likewise.
* gdb.base/setshow.exp: Likewise.
* gdb.base/valgrind-db-attach.exp: Set global use_gdb_stub to 1.
* lib/gdb.exp (gdb_run_cmd, gdb_start_cmd): Replace target use_gdb_stub
check by global $use_gdb_stub.
(gdb_test_multiple): Forbid run, start or attach for !$use_gdb_stub.
(default_gdb_start): Set global use_gdb_stub from target use_gdb_stub.
(default_gdb_init): Unset global $use_gdb_stub.
(gdb_continue_to_end, rerun_to_main): Replace target use_gdb_stub check
by global $use_gdb_stub.
* lib/gdbserver-support.exp: Extend comments for set_board_info
gdb_protocol and gdb,socketport.
(gdbserver_start_extended): Set global gdbserver_protocol and
gdbserver_gdbport. Clear global use_gdb_stub.
* lib/mi-support.exp (default_mi_gdb_start): Set global use_gdb_stub
from target use_gdb_stub.
(mi_run_cmd): Replace target use_gdb_stub check by global $use_gdb_stub.
* gdb.base/annota1.exp, gdb.base/annota3.exp: Extract the
inferior's pid and look for a core dump named core.$pid. Use
`remote_file' commands on the host instead of hand coding shell
commands on the build.
* gdb.base/valgrind-db-attach.exp: Kill the program before
finishing the test.
Support Valgrind attachments broken by the PIE support.
* auxv.c: Include gdbcore.h.

* auxv.h (procfs_xfer_auxv): Remove comment. Rename to ...
(memory_xfer_auxv): ... here.
* linux-nat.c (linux_xfer_partial): Rename procfs_xfer_auxv to
memory_xfer_auxv.
