This avoids assert failures when the register is bigger than the
slot size. This happens on Aarch64 when truncating Z registers
into an fpsimd structure. This can be triggered by running
gdb command "generate-core-file".
Also, when the register is smaller then the slot size, then
zero pad when writing to the slot, and truncate when writing
to the regcache. This happens on Aarch64 with the CPSR register.
Continue to ensure registers are invalidated when both buffers
are null.

This is more preparation bits for multi-target support.
In a multi-target scenario, we need to address the case of different
processes/threads running on different targets that happen to have the
same PID/PTID. E.g., we can have both process 123 in target 1, and
process 123 in target 2, while they're in reality different processes
running on different machines. Or maybe we've loaded multiple
instances of the same core file. Etc.
To address this, in my WIP multi-target branch, threads and processes
are uniquely identified by the (process_stratum target_ops *, ptid_t)
and (process_stratum target_ops *, pid) tuples respectively. I.e.,
each process_stratum instance has its own thread/process number space.
As you can imagine, that requires passing around target_ops * pointers
in a number of functions where we're currently passing only a ptid_t
or an int. E.g., when we look up a thread_info object by ptid_t in
find_thread_ptid, the ptid_t alone isn't sufficient.
In many cases though, we already have the thread_info or inferior
pointer handy, but we "lose" it somewhere along the call stack, only
to look it up again by ptid_t/pid. Since thread_info or inferior
objects know their parent target, if we pass around thread_info or
inferior pointers when possible, we avoid having to add extra
target_ops parameters to many functions, and also, we eliminate a
number of by ptid_t/int lookups.
So that's what this patch does. In a bit more detail:
- Changes a number of functions and methods to take a thread_info or
inferior pointer instead of a ptid_t or int parameter.
- Changes a number of structure fields from ptid_t/int to inferior or
thread_info pointers.
- Uses the inferior_thread() function whenever possible instead of
inferior_ptid.
- Uses thread_info pointers directly when possible instead of the
is_running/is_stopped etc. routines that require a lookup.
- A number of functions are eliminated along the way, such as:
int valid_gdb_inferior_id (int num);
int pid_to_gdb_inferior_id (int pid);
int gdb_inferior_id_to_pid (int num);
int in_inferior_list (int pid);
- A few structures and places hold a thread_info pointer across
inferior execution, so now they take a strong reference to the
(refcounted) thread_info object to avoid the thread_info pointer
getting stale. This is done in enable_thread_stack_temporaries and
in the infcall.c code.
- Related, there's a spot in infcall.c where using a RAII object to
handle the refcount would be handy, so a gdb::ref_ptr specialization
for thread_info is added (thread_info_ref, in gdbthread.h), along
with a gdb_ref_ptr policy that works for all refcounted_object types
(in common/refcounted-object.h).

This commit fixes a bug whereby hardware watchpoints are not used on
aarch64 when attaching to a target. The fix adds an aarch64 specialization
of post_attach which records the number of available hardware debug registers
using aarch64_linux_get_debug_reg_capacity. This implementation mirrors that
of aarch64_linux_child_post_startup_inferior which successfully enables the
use of hardware watchpoints when launching the target under the debugger.

way and also applies some missing constification to make the problem
more apparent.

* python/py-param.c (add_setshow_generic): Make parameters const.
(parmpy_init): Update.
regcache_cooked_read_ftype can be converted to a function_view, which
allows us to use lambda functions and therefore avoid having to pass an
opaque pointer parameter.
Adjusting the fallouts showed that the "const regcache &" passed to the
readonly_detached_regcache constructor is cast to non-const in
do_cooked_read. I changed the constructor parameter to be non-const.
Finally, I renamed the typedef from regcache_cooked_read_ftype to
register_read_ftype, since there is nothing that forces us to use it
only for regcaches nor cooked registers.
gdb/ChangeLog:
* regcache.h (regcache_cooked_read_ftype): Rename to...

When trying to run the update-gnulib.sh script in gdb, I get this:
Error: Wrong automake version (Unescaped left brace in regex is deprecated, passed through in regex; marked by <-- HERE in m/\${ <-- HERE ([^ =:+{}]+)}/ at /opt/automake/1.11.1/bin/automake line 4113.), we need 1.11.1.
Aborting.
Apparently, it's an issue with a regex in automake that triggers a
warning starting with Perl 5.22. It has been fixed in automake 1.15.1.
So I think it's a good excuse to bump the versions of autoconf and
automake used in the gnulib import. And to avoid requiring multiple
builds of autoconf/automake, it was suggested that we bump the required
version of those tools for all binutils-gdb.
For autoconf, the 2.69 version is universally available, so it's an easy
choice. For automake, different distros and distro versions have
different automake versions. But 1.15.1 seems to be the most readily
available as a package. In any case, it's easy to build it from source.
I removed the version checks from AUTOMAKE_OPTIONS and AC_PREREQ,
because I don't think they are useful in our case. They only specify a
lower bound for the acceptable version of automake/autoconf. That's
useful if you let the user choose the version of the tool they want to
use, but want to set a minimum version (because you use a feature that
was introduced in that version). In our case, we force people to use a
specific version anyway. For the autoconf version, we have the check in
config/override.m4 that enforces the version we want. It will be one
less thing to update next time we change autotools version.
I hit a few categories of problems that required some changes. They are
described below along with the chosen solutions.
Problem 1:
configure.ac:17: warning: AM_INIT_AUTOMAKE: two- and three-arguments forms are deprecated. For more info, see:
configure.ac:17: http://www.gnu.org/software/automake/manual/automake.html#Modernize-AM_005fINIT_005fAUTOMAKE-invocation
Solution 1:
Adjust the code based on the example at that URL.
Problem 2 (in zlib/):
Makefile.am: error: required file './INSTALL' not found
Makefile.am: 'automake --add-missing' can install 'INSTALL'
Makefile.am: error: required file './NEWS' not found
Makefile.am: error: required file './AUTHORS' not found
Makefile.am: error: required file './COPYING' not found
Makefile.am: 'automake --add-missing' can install 'COPYING'
Solution 2:
Add the foreign option to AUTOMAKE_OPTIONS.
Problem 3:
doc/Makefile.am:20: error: support for Cygnus-style trees has been removed
Solution 3:
Remove the cygnus options.
Problem 4:
Makefile.am:656: warning: 'INCLUDES' is the old name for 'AM_CPPFLAGS' (or '*_CPPFLAGS')
Solution 4:
Rename "INCLUDES = " to "AM_CPPFLAGS += " (because AM_CPPFLAGS is
already defined earlier).
Problem 5:
doc/Makefile.am:71: warning: suffix '.texinfo' for Texinfo files is discouraged; use '.texi' instead
doc/Makefile.am: warning: Oops!
doc/Makefile.am: It appears this file (or files included by it) are triggering

doc/Makefile.am: appear to be cleaned, by e.g. being listed in CLEANFILES or
doc/Makefile.am: DISTCLEANFILES.
doc/Makefile.am: If you want your '.info' files to be placed in the builddir
doc/Makefile.am: rather than in the srcdir, you have to use the shiny new

Solution 7:
Use the no-texinfo.tex automake option. We also have one in
texinfo/texinfo.tex, not sure if we should point to that, or move it
(or a newer version of it added with automake --add-missing) to
top-level.
Problem 8:
Makefile.am:131: warning: source file 'config/tc-aarch64.c' is in a subdirectory,
Makefile.am:131: but option 'subdir-objects' is disabled
automake: warning: possible forward-incompatibility.
automake: At least a source file is in a subdirectory, but the 'subdir-objects'
automake: automake option hasn't been enabled. For now, the corresponding output
automake: object file(s) will be placed in the top-level directory. However,
automake: this behaviour will change in future Automake versions: they will
automake: unconditionally cause object files to be placed in the same subdirectory
automake: of the corresponding sources.
automake: You are advised to start using 'subdir-objects' option throughout your
automake: project, to avoid future incompatibilities.
Solution 8:
Use subdir-objects, that means adjusting references to some .o that will now
be in config/.

Compiling with GCC 8.1 shows this warning:
gdb/minsyms.c: In function 'bound_minimal_symbol lookup_minimal_symbol_by_pc_section(CORE_ADDR, obj_section*, lookup_msym_prefer)':
gdb/minsyms.c:825:40: warning: 'want_type' may be used uninitialized in this function [-Wmaybe-uninitialized]
&& MSYMBOL_TYPE (&msymbol[hi]) != want_type
That warning is a false positive, because the switch that converts
enum lookup_msym_prefer values to enum enum minimal_symbol_type values
has a case for every lookup_msym_prefer enumerator:
switch (prefer)
{
case lookup_msym_prefer::TEXT:
want_type = mst_text;
break;
case lookup_msym_prefer::TRAMPOLINE:
want_type = mst_solib_trampoline;
break;
case lookup_msym_prefer::GNU_IFUNC:
want_type = mst_text_gnu_ifunc;
break;
}
The problem is that GCC assumes that enum variables may hold values
other than the named enumerators (like e.g., "lookup_msym_prefer
prefer = (lookup_msym_prefer) 10;").
Rework the code a bit, adding a gdb_assert to make it explicit to the
compiler that want_type is initialized in all normal-return paths.
gdb/ChangeLog:
2018-06-19 Pedro Alves <palves@redhat.com>
* minsyms.c (msym_prefer_to_msym_type): New, factored out from ...
(lookup_minimal_symbol_by_pc_section): ... here with
gdb_assert_not_reached added.
Currently, gdb.gdb/selftest.exp fails if you build GDB with
optimization (-O2, etc.).
The reason is that after setting a breakpoint in captured_main, we
stop at:
...
Breakpoint 1, captured_main_1 (context=<optimized out>) at src/gdb/main.c:492
...
while selftest_setup expects a stop at captured_main.
Here, captured_main_1 has been inlined into captured_main, and
captured_main has been inlined into gdb_main:
...
$ nm ./build/gdb/gdb | egrep ' [tT] .*captured_main|gdb_main' | c++filt
000000000061b950 T gdb_main(captured_main_args*)
...
Indeed, the two inlined functions show up in the backtrace:
...
(gdb) bt
#0 captured_main_1 (context=<optimized out>) at main.c:492
#1 captured_main (data=<optimized out>) at main.c:1147
#2 gdb_main (args=args@entry=0x7fffffffdb80) at main.c:1173
#3 0x000000000040fea5 in main (argc=<optimized out>, argv=<optimized out>)
at gdb.c:32
...
We're now stopping at captured_main_1 because commit ddfe970e6b
("Don't elide all inlined frames") makes GDB present a stop at the
innermost inlined frame if the program stopped by a user breakpoint.
Now, the selftest.exp testcase explicitly asks to stop at
"captured_main", not "captured_main_1", so I'm thinking that it's
GDB'S behavior that should be improved. That is what this commit
does, by only showing a stop at an inline frame if the user breakpoint
was set in that frame's block.
Before this commit:
(top-gdb) b captured_main
Breakpoint 1 at 0x792f99: file src/gdb/main.c, line 492.
(top-gdb) r
Starting program: build/gdb/gdb
Breakpoint 1, captured_main_1 (context=<optimized out>) at src/gdb/main.c:492
492 lim_at_start = (char *) sbrk (0);
(top-gdb)
After this commit, we now instead get:
(top-gdb) b captured_main
Breakpoint 1 at 0x791339: file src/gdb/main.c, line 492.
(top-gdb) r
Starting program: build/gdb/gdb
Breakpoint 1, captured_main (data=<optimized out>) at src/gdb/main.c:1147
1147 captured_main_1 (context);
(top-gdb)
and:
(top-gdb) b captured_main_1
Breakpoint 2 at 0x791339: file src/gdb/main.c, line 492.
(top-gdb) r
Starting program: build/gdb/gdb
Breakpoint 2, captured_main_1 (context=<optimized out>) at src/gdb/main.c:492
492 lim_at_start = (char *) sbrk (0);
(top-gdb)
Note that both captured_main and captured_main_1 resolved to the same
address, 0x791339. That is necessary to trigger the issue in
question. The gdb.base/inline-break.exp testcase currently does not
exercise that, but the new test added by this commit does. That new
test fails without the GDB fix and passes with the fix. No
regressions on x86-64 GNU/Linux.
While at it, the THIS_PC comparison in stopped_by_user_bp_inline_frame
is basically a nop, so just remove it -- if a software or hardware
breakpoint explains the stop, then it must be that it was installed at
the current PC.
gdb/ChangeLog:
2018-06-19 Pedro Alves <palves@redhat.com>
* inline-frame.c (stopped_by_user_bp_inline_frame): Replace PC
parameter with a block parameter. Compare location's block symbol
with the frame's block instead of addresses.
(skip_inline_frames): Pass the current block instead of the
frame's address. Break out as soon as we determine the frame
should not be skipped.

Internal error: non-aggregate type to value_struct_elt_for_reference
In value_struct_elt_for_reference(), need to call check_typedef() on

* solib-darwin.c (darwin_current_sos): Use unique_xmalloc_ptr.
This removes a couple of cleanups by using unique_xmalloc_ptr instead.
These two changes are combined because the two functions are very
similar.

2018-06-18 Tom Tromey <tom@tromey.com>
* solib-frv.c (frv_relocate_main_executable): Use
unique_xmalloc_ptr.
* solib-dsbt.c (dsbt_relocate_main_executable): Use
unique_xmalloc_ptr.
This changes read_string's "buffer" out-parameter to be a
unique_xmalloc_ptr, then updates the users. This allows for the
removal of some cleanups.
I chose unique_xmalloc_ptr rather than byte_vector here due to the way
Guile unwinding seems to work.

While working on the parser code, I noticed that yyerror is exported
from each parser. It is used by this code in parse.c:
TRY
{
if (lang->la_parser (&ps))
lang->la_error (NULL);
}
However, it seems to me that la_error will never be called here,
because in every case, la_parser throws an exception on error -- each
implementation of yyerror just calls error.
So, this patch removes la_error and makes all the yyerror functions
static. This is handy primarily because it makes it simpler to make
the expression parsers pure.

* gdb.ada/bp_inlined_func.exp: Allow 5 breakpoint locations.
This patch fixes an issue where GDB would sometimes hang when
attaching to a multi-threaded process. This issue was especially
likely to trigger if the machine (running the inferior) was under
load.
In summary, the problem is an imbalance between two functions in
linux-nat.c, stop_callback and stop_wait_callback. In stop_callback
we send SIGSTOP to a thread, but _only_ if the thread is not already
stopped, and if it is not signalled, which means it should stop soon.
In stop_wait_callback we wait for the SIGSTOP to arrive, however, we
are aware that the thread might have been signalled for some other
reason, and so if a signal other than SIGSTOP causes the thread to
stop then we stash that signal away so it can be reported back later.
If we get a SIGSTOP then this is discarded, after all, this signal was
sent from stop_callback. Except that this might not be the case, it
could be that SIGSTOP was sent to a thread from elsewhere in GDB, in
which case we would not have sent another SIGSTOP from stop_callback
and the SIGSTOP received in stop_wait_callback should not be ignored.
Below I've laid out the exact sequence of events that I saw that lead
me to track down the above diagnosis.
After attaching to the inferior GDB sends a SIGSTOP to all of the
threads and then returns to the event loop waiting for interesting
things to happen.
Eventually the first target event is detected (this will be the first
SIGSTOP arriving) and GDB calls inferior_event_handler which calls
fetch_inferior_event. Inside fetch_inferior_event GDB calls
do_target_wait which calls target_wait to find a thread with an event.
The target_wait call ends up in linux_nat_wait_1, which first checks
to see if any threads already have stashed stop events to report, and
if there are none then we enter a loop fetching as many events as
possible out of the kernel. This event fetching is non-blocking, and
we give up once the kernel has no more events ready to give us.
All of the events from the kernel are passed through
linux_nat_filter_event which stashes the wait status for all of the
threads that reported a SIGSTOP, these will be returned by future
calls to linux_nat_wait_1.
Lets assume for a moment that we've attached to a multi-threaded
inferior, and that all but one thread has reported its stop during the
initial wait call in linux_nat_wait_1. The other thread will be
reporting a SIGSTOP, but the kernel has not yet managed to deliver
that signal to GDB before GDB gave up waiting and continued handling
the events it already had. GDB selects one of the threads that has
reported a SIGSTOP and passes this thread ID back to
fetch_inferior_event.
To handle the thread's SIGSTOP, GDB calls handle_signal_stop, which
calls stop_all_threads, this calls wait_one, which in turn calls
target_wait.
The first call to target_wait at this point will result in a stashed
wait status being returned, at which point we call setup_inferior.
The call to setup_inferior leads to a call into try_thread_db_load_1
which results in a call to linux_stop_and_wait_all_lwps. This in turn
calls stop_callback on each thread followed by stop_wait_callback on
each thread.
We're now ready to make the mistake. In stop_callback we see that our
problem thread is not stopped, but is signalled, so it should stop
soon. As a result we don't send another SIGSTOP.
We then enter stop_wait_callback, eventually the problem thread stops
with SIGSTOP which we _incorrectly_ assume came from stop_callback,
and we discard.
Once stop_wait_callback has done its damage we return from
linux_stop_and_wait_all_lwps, finish in try_thread_db_load_1, and
eventually unwind back to the call to setup_inferior in
stop_all_threads. GDB now loops around, and performs another
target_wait to get the next event from the inferior.
The target_wait calls causes us to once again reach linux_nat_wait_1,
and we pass through some code that calls resume_stopped_resumed_lwps.
This allows GDB to resume threads that are physically stopped, but
which GDB doesn't see any good reason for the thread to remain
stopped. In our case, the problem thread which had its SIGSTOP
discarded is stopped, but doesn't have a stashed wait status to
report, and so GDB sets the thread going again.
We are now stuck waiting for an event on the problem thread that might
never arrive.
When considering how to write a test for this bug I struggled. The
issue was only spotted _randomly_ when a machine was heavily loaded
with many multi-threaded applications, and GDB was being attached (by
script) to all of these applications in parallel. In one reproducer I
required around 5 applications each of 5 threads per machine core in
order to reproduce the bug 2 out of 3 times.
What we really want to do though is simulate the kernel being slow to
report events through waitpid during the initial attach. The solution
I came up with was to write an LD_PRELOAD library that intercepts
(some) waitpid calls and rate limits them to one per-second. Any more
than that simply return 0 indicating there's no event available.
Obviously this can only be applied to waitpid calls that have the
WNOHANG flag set.
Unfortunately, once you ignore a waitpid call GDB can get a bit stuck.
Usually, once the kernel has made a child status available to waitpid
GDB will be sent a SIGCHLD signal. However, if the kernel makes 5
child statuses available but, due to the preload library we only
collect one of them, then the kernel will not send any further SIGCHLD
signals, and so, when GDB, thinking that the remaining statuses have
not yet arrived sits waiting for a SIGCHLD it will be disappointed.
The solution, implemented within the preload library, is that, when we
hold back a waitpid result from GDB we spawn a new thread. This
thread delays for a short period, and then sends GDB a SIGCHLD. This
causes GDB to retry the waitpid, at which point sufficient time has
passed and our library allows the waitpid call to complete.

Those processes used to kill themselves, but that was changed by
commit f50d8a2eae ("Fix gdb.base/fork-running-state.exp race").
This commit restores the self-killing, but only in the cases gdb won't
try killing the processes, thus avoiding the old race.
(The restored code in fork_parent isn't exactly the same as it was.
In this version, we're exiting immediately when 'wait' returns
success, while in the old version we'd loop again and end up in the
perror call. The output from that perror call is not expected by the
"kill inferior" tests, and would result in a test FAIL.)

Consider this testcase:

struct s {
int a;

};
struct s foo ()
{
struct s r;
r.a = 1;
r.b = 2;
return r;
}
int
main (void)
{
struct s v;
v = foo ();
return v.a + v.b;
}
...
When we compile it with -g, load the exec with gdb, and run till the end of foo,
we can print r:
...
(gdb) p r
$1 = {a = 1, b = 2}
...
and by setting pretty printing to on, we can get the fields of r printed each
on its own line:
...
(gdb) set print pretty
(gdb) p r
$2 = {
a = 1,
b = 2
}
...
However, when we finish foo, the printed function result value is not using
the pretty printing setting:
...
(gdb) finish
Run till exit from #0 foo () at test.c:11
0x00000000004004c1 in main () at test.c:18
18 v = foo ();
Value returned is $3 = {a = 1, b = 2}
...
This patch fixes that by using get_user_print_options instead of
get_no_prettyformat_print_options in print_return_value_1, which gives us:
...
(gdb) finish
Run till exit from #0 foo () at test.c:11
0x00000000004004c1 in main () at test.c:18
18 v = foo ();

Before commit 70ee000084 ("[gdb] Allow function arguments in bp
print match in selftest_setup"), this pattern in selftest_setup:
-re "Starting program.*Breakpoint \[0-9\]+,.* at .*main.c:.*$function.*$gdb_prompt $" {
# $function may be inlined, so the program stops at the line
# calling $function.
pass "$description"
}
happened to match if captured_main_1 was inlined and captured_main was
not, because captured_main calls captured_main_1 first thing, which
coincidentally matches "$function.*":
Breakpoint 1, captured_main (data=<optimized out>) at src/gdb/main.c:1147
1147 captured_main_1 (context);
That would probably be better "$function .*", with a space, but I
think that even better is to remove the "may be inlined" case too now,
because since ddfe970e6b ("Don't elide all inlined frames") GDB
presents the stop at the inline function instead of at the caller.

When I run make check:
...

I see after ~30m the summary of the test run printed, but make still hangs.
This seems to be due to some sleeping processes:
...

6451 ? S 0:00 gdb.base/fork-running-state/fork-running-state

...
Killing the sleeping processes like this:
...
kill -9 $(ps -A | grep fork-running-st | awk '{print $1}')
...
allows make to finish.
If I isolate one debug session from fork-running-state.exp that causes one of
these sleeping processes, we get:
...

NOTES
Alarms created by alarm() are preserved across execve(2) and are not
inherited by children created via fork(2).
...
So, AFAIU, once the parent is killed, there's no alarm to terminate the child.
The patch fixes this by moving the setting of the alarm into the
fork_main/fork_child functions, making sure that an alarm will trigger for
the child.

When making an inferior call, and non-stop mode is off, then, once the
inferior call is complete all threads will be stopped, and we should
run the INF_EXEC_COMPLETE handler. This will result in a call to
'target_async(0)' to remove the event handlers for the target.
This was discussed by Yao Qi in this mailing list thread:
https://sourceware.org/ml/gdb/2017-10/msg00032.html
Without this then the target event handlers are left in place even
when the target is stopped, which is different to what happens during
a standard stop proceedure (for example when one thread hits a
breakpoint).

In PR22882 inferior functions are called on different threads while
scheduler-locking is turned on. This results in a hang. This was
discussed in this mailing list thread:
https://sourceware.org/ml/gdb/2017-10/msg00032.html
The problem is that when the thread is set running in order to execute
the inferior call, a call to target_async is made. If the target is
not already registered as 'target_async' then this will install the
async event handler, AND unconditionally mark the handler as having an
event pending.
However, if the target is already registered as target_async then the
event handler is not installed (its already installed) and the
handler is NOT marked as having an event pending.
If we try to set running a thread that already has a pending event,
then we do want to set target_async, however, there will not be an
external event incoming (the thread is already stopped) so we rely on
manually marking the event handler as having a pending event in order
to see the threads pending stop event. This is fine, if, at the point
where we call target_async, the target is not already marked as async.
But, if it is, then the event handler will not be marked as ready, and
the threads pending stop event will never be processed.
A similar pattern of code can be seen in linux_nat_target::resume,
where, when a thread has a pending event, the call to target_async is
followed by a call to async_file_mark to ensure that the pending
thread event will be processed, even if target_async was already set.

This removes a use of the queue data structure (common/queue.h) from
remote.c.
The queue is replaced with a std::vector. A queue was not needed, as
the code never de-queued items.

marshalling arguments to be passed through the queue iterator.

This removes cleanups from tracefile.c, by introducing a unique_ptr

<operator()>: Rename from trace_file_writer_xfree.
(trace_file_writer_up): New typedef.
(tsave_command, trace_save_tfile, trace_save_ctf): Update.
Using std::unique_ptr allows to remove the manual xfree in the
destructor.
If I understand correctly, using the () after the new operator will make
sure the allocated objects will be value initialized, which for scalars
means they are zero-initialized. So it should have the same behavior as
XCNEWVEC.
gdb/ChangeLog:
* regcache.h (reg_buffer) <~reg_buffer>: Use default destructor.
<m_registers, m_register_status>: Change type to
std::unique_ptr.
* regcache.c (reg_buffer::reg_buffer): Use new instead of
XCNEWVEC.
The type of reg_buffer::m_register_status is an array of signed char,
probably to ensure that each element takes up only one byte. Instead,
since we use C++11, we can force the underlying type of register_status
to be signed char and use the enum type.
gdb/ChangeLog:
* common/common-regcache.h (enum register_status): Add
underlying type "signed char".
* regcache.h (reg_buffer) <m_register_status>: Change type to
register_status *.
* regcache.c (reg_buffer::reg_buffer): Alocate arrays of
register_status instead of signed char.

(reg_buffer::get_register_status): Remove cast.
(readable_regcache::raw_read): Remove cast.
(readable_regcache::cooked_read): Remove cast.
This removes a use of queue.h from gdbserver/event-loop.c, replacing
it with std::queue.
I was not completely sure whether std::queue is even that useful.
Perhaps plain std::list could be used just as easily.

This makes gdbreplay share a bit more code with gdbserver, and paves
the way to share more in future. Including common-defs.h pulls in
defines and headers that gdb and gdbserver assume are always
defined/available too, such as for example _(), ansidecl.h or a set of
system headers. Including that revealed (static vs extern conflict)
gdbreplay had a local copy of perror_with_name (which exited directly
instead of throwing an error). So I removed gdbreplay's local copy,
and then added enough .o files until gdbreplay linked successfully.
Also, use xstrdup instead of strdup.

This commit adds two new commands which may be used to test thread
debugging libraries used by GDB:
* "maint check libthread-db" tests the thread debugging library GDB
is using for the current inferior.
* "maint set/show check-libthread-db" selects whether libthread_db
tests should be run automatically as libthread_db is auto-loaded.
The default is to not run tests automatically.
The test itself is a basic integrity check exercising all libthread_db
functions used by GDB on GNU/Linux systems. By extension this also
exercises the proc_service functions provided by GDB that libthread_db
uses.
This functionality is useful for NPTL developers and libthread_db
developers. It could also prove useful investigating bugs reported
against GDB where the thread debugging library or GDB's proc_service
layer is suspect.

commit e5a77256e8
Author: Sergio Durigan Junior <sergiodj@redhat.com>
Date: Tue Jun 5 17:55:39 2018 -0400
Guard declarations of 'sve_{vq,vl}_from_{vl,vq}' macros on Aarch64 (and unbreak build)
This commit fixes that.
Currently, the target stack is represented by a singly linked list,
with target_ops having a pointer to the target beneath. This poses a
problem for multi-process / multi-target debugging. In that case, we
will naturally want multiple instances of target stacks. E.g., one
stack for inferior 1 which is debugging a core file, and another
target stack for inferior 2 which is debugging a remote process. The
problem then is in finding a target's "beneath" target, if we consider
that for some target_ops types, we'll be sharing a single target_ops
instance between several inferiors. For example, so far, I found no
need to have multiple instances of the spu_multiarch_target /
exec_target / dummy_target targets.
Thus this patch, which changes the target stack representation to an
array of pointers. For now, there's still a single global instance of
this new target_stack class, though further down in the multi-target
work, each inferior will have its own instance.
gdb/ChangeLog:
2018-06-07 Pedro Alves <palves@redhat.com>
* target.h (target_ops) <beneath>: Now a method. All references
updated.
(class target_stack): New.
* target.c (g_target_stack): New.
(g_current_top_target): Delete.
(current_top_target): Get the top target out of g_target_stack.
(target_stack::push, target_stack::unpush): New.
(push_target, unpush_target): Reimplement.
(target_is_pushed): Reimplement in terms of g_target_stack.
(target_ops::beneath, target_stack::find_beneath): New.
This changes target_ops::beneath from a pointer to a method, and
adjusts all references throughout. The idea here is to make it easier
to change the target stack representation from an intrusive singly
linked list to something else without leaking implementation details
throughout.
The commit does not change the representation yet, that will be done
in a following patch. That is why a new target_ops::m_beneath field
appears here. That new field isn't really documented properly or made
private, simply because it will be removed shortly.
Note that target_ops::beneath() is essentially the same as the current
find_target_beneath routine. The following patch will eliminate the
latter.

The recent C++ification of target_ops replaced references to the old
"current_target" squashed target throughout with references to a
"target_stack" pointer. I had picked the "target_stack" name very
early in the multi-target work, and managed to stick with it, even
though it's a bit of a misnomer, since it isn't really a "target
stack" object, but a pointer into the current top target in the stack.
As I'm splitting more pieces off of the multi-target branch, I've come
to think that it's better to rename it now. A following patch will
introduce a new class to represent a target stack, and "target_stack"
would be _its_ ideal name. (In the branch, the class is called
a_target_stack to work around the clash.)
Thus this commit renames target_stack to current_top_target and
replaces all references throughout. Also, while at it,
current_top_target is made a function instead of a pointer, to make it
possible to change its internal implementation without leaking
implementation details out. In a couple patches, the implementation
of the function will change to refer to a target stack object, and
then further down the multi-target work, it'll change again to find
the right target stack for the current inferior.

This changes two out parameters of build_address_symbolic to be
std::string, and updates the callers. This allows removing some
cleanups.
This patch also moves the declaration of build_address_symbolic out of
defs.h. I think that many things in defs.h should be elsewhere
instead. In this case, I moved the declaration to valprint.h, becuase
there is no "printcmd.h" -- but perhaps it would be better to
introduce that instead.

Finally, it indents one of the URLs, since that was simpler to read,

This removes the last cleanups from the Ada code by changing
ada_lookup_symbol_list's out parameter to be a std::vector, and then
fixing up the fallout.
This is a relatively shallow change. Deeper changes are possible, for
example (1) changing various other functions to accept a vector rather
than a pointer, or (2) changing ada_lookup_symbol_list to return the
vector and omitting the length entirely.
Tested by the buildbot, but I'll wait for Joel to test these as well.

On Windows, using the "-list-thread-groups --available" GDB/MI command
before an inferior is being debugged:
% gdb -q -i=mi
=thread-group-added,id="i1"
=cmd-param-changed,param="auto-load safe-path",value="/"
(gdb)
-list-thread-groups --available
Segmentation fault
Ooops!
The SEGV happens because the -list-thread-groups --available command
triggers a windows_nat_target::xfer_partial call for a TARGET_OBJECT_OSDATA
object. Until a program is being debugged, the target_ops layer that
gets the call is the Windows "native" layer. Except for a couple of
specific objects (TARGET_OBJECT_MEMORY and TARGET_OBJECT_LIBRARIES),
this layer's xfer_partial method delegates the xfer of other objects
to the target beneath:
default:
return beneath->xfer_partial (object, annex,
readbuf, writebuf, offset, len,
xfered_len);
Unfortunately, there is no "beneath layer" in this case, so
beneath is NULL and dereferencing it leads to the SEGV.
This patch fixes the issue by checking beneath before trying
to delegate the request.
gdb/ChangeLog:
* windows-nat.c (windows_nat_target::xfer_partial): Return
TARGET_XFER_E_IO if we need to delegate to the target beneath
but BENEATH is NULL.

After pulling Alan's change that added aarch64-sve-linux-ptrace.o to
configure.nat, I got an undefined reference to aarch64_sve_get_vq when
doing a "make clean && make". It turns out that re-running configure
(./config.status --recheck) was needed to re-generate the Makefile with
aarch64-sve-linux-ptrace.o included in the object list. Putting
configure.nat in the dependencies of config.status would make sure that
when we modify configure.nat, the configure script is re-ran. I think
it also makes sense because configure.tgt and configure.host are also
there.
gdb/ChangeLog:
* Makefile.in (config.status): Add configure.nat as a
dependency.

Pedro pointed out in an earlier patch that it would be possible to
make some helper functions in cp-name-parser.y into methods on
cpname_state, cleaning up the code a bit. This patch implements this
idea.
Doing this required moving the %union earlier in the .y file, so the
patch is somewhat bigger than you might expect.
Tested by building with both bison and byacc, and then running the
gdb.cp tests.

<https://sourceware.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=22960#c4> reports
that macOS gdb crashes with a null pointer dereference in
push_target(struct target_ops *). This commit fixes that.
The problem is that commit f6ac5f3d63 ("Convert struct target_ops to
C++") left the darwin_ops global uninitialized.
We don't need that global anymore, we can use the (new)
get_native_target function instead for the same effect.

Enable SVE support for GDB by reading the VQ when creating a
target description.
Also ensurse that SVE is taken into account when creating
the tdep structure, and store the current VQ value directly in tdep.
gdb/
* aarch64-linux-nat.c (aarch64_linux_read_description): Support SVE.

* aarch64-tdep.h (gdbarch_tdep::has_sve): New function.
Previously VQ was of type long. Using uint64_t ensures it always matches the
same type as the VG register.
Note that in the Linux kernel, VQ is 16bits. We cast it up to 64bits
immediately after reading to ensure we always use the same type throughout
the code.

While reading value_fetch_lazy, I thought it would be good to split it
