The GNU coding standard says error messages should be of the form
program:sourcefile:lineno: message
or
program: message
and
"The string message should not begin with a capital letter when it
follows a program name and/or file name, because that isn’t the
beginning of a sentence. (The sentence conceptually starts at the
beginning of the line.) Also, it should not end with a period."
This patch does that for ppc, and removes some British spelling.
I've also switched some error output from using the linker callback
einfo to _bfd_error_handler, due to improved compilation time
argument checking now done for the latter function.

I noticed some failures of some buildbot slaves, e.g.:
FAIL: gdb.cp/nested-types.exp: ptype S10 (limit = 1) // wrong nested type enum definition: enum S10::E10 {S10::A10, S10::B10, S10::C10};
The issue is that they have an older gcc (not c++11 by default?) that
doesn't emit the enum underlying type information. When the
enum type is printed by ptype, it looks like this:
enum S10::E10 {S10::A10, S10::B10, S10::C10};
instead of this on older gccs:
enum S10::E10 : unsigned int {S10::A10, S10::B10, S10::C10};
The regex that matches this is in cp_test_ptype_class, and is
enum $nested_name (: (unsigned )?int)? \{
If the "unsigned int" portion is not present, then it requires the
string to have two spaces between the enum name and opening bracket.
The fix is simply to move the trailing space inside the ? group.
gdb/testsuite/ChangeLog:
* lib/cp-support.exp (cp_test_ptype_class): Move space inside
parentheses.
This removes most (but not all) cleanups from linux-thread-db.c.
std::string and std::vector are used in place of manual memory
management.
The remaining cleanup in linux-thread-db.c uses
make_cleanup_free_char_ptr_vec, which requires a somewhat bigger
change.

Subject: [PATCH] dwarf: Make sect_offset 64-bits
Compiling with Clang 6 shows these errors:
/home/emaisin/src/binutils-gdb/gdb/dwarf2read.c:26610:43: error: result of comparison of constant 4294967296 with expression of type 'typename std::underlying_type<sect_offset>::type' (a
ka 'unsigned int') is always false [-Werror,-Wtautological-constant-out-of-range-compare]
if (to_underlying (per_cu.sect_off) >= (static_cast<uint64_t> (1) << 32))

/home/emaisin/src/binutils-gdb/gdb/dwarf2read.c:26618:43: error: result of comparison of constant 4294967296 with expression of type 'typename std::underlying_type<sect_offset>::type' (a
ka 'unsigned int') is always false [-Werror,-Wtautological-constant-out-of-range-compare]
if (to_underlying (per_cu.sect_off) >= (static_cast<uint64_t> (1) << 32))
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ ^ ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
The code in question checks if there is any offset exceeding 32 bits,
and therefore if we need to use the 64-bit DWARF format when writing the
.debug_names section. The type we use currently to represent section
offsets is an unsigned int (32-bits), which means a value of this type
will never exceed 32 bits, hence the errors above.
There are many signs that we want to support 64-bits DWARF (although I
haven't tested), such as:
- We correctly read initial length fields (read_initial_length)
- We take that into account when reading offsets (read_offset_1)
- The check_dwarf64_offsets function
However, I don't see how it can work if sect_offset is a 32-bits type.
Every time we record a section offset, we risk truncating the value.
And if a file uses the 64-bit DWARF format, it's most likely because
there are such offset values that overflow 32 bits.
Because of this, I think the way forward is to change sect_offset to be
a uint64_t. It will be able to represent any offset, regardless of the
bitness of the DWARF info.
This patch was regtested on the buildbot.

Nowadays, we create a readonly regcache in get_return_value, and pass it
to gdbarch_return_value to get the return value. In theory, we can pass a
readable_regcache instance and get the return value, because we don't need
to modify the regcache. Unfortunately, gdbarch_return_value is designed
to multiplex regcache, according to READBUF and WRITEBUF.
# If READBUF is not NULL, extract the return value and save it in this
# buffer.
#
# If WRITEBUF is not NULL, it contains a return value which will be
# stored into the appropriate register.
In fact, gdbarch_return_value should be split to three functions, 1) only
return return_value_convention, 2) pass regcache_readonly and readbuf, 3)
pass regcache and writebuf. These changes are out of the scope of this
patch series, so I pass regcache to gdbarch_return_value even for read,
and trust each gdbarch backend doesn't modify regcache.

* regcache.h (regcache): Remove constructors.
Nowadays, we need to dump registers contents from "readwrite" regcache and
"readonly" regcache,
if (target_has_registers)
get_current_regcache ()->dump (out, what_to_dump);
else
{
/* For the benefit of "maint print registers" & co when
debugging an executable, allow dumping a regcache even when
there is no thread selected / no registers. */
regcache dummy_regs (target_gdbarch ());
dummy_regs.dump (out, what_to_dump);
}
since we'll have two different types/classes for "readwrite" regcache and
"readonly" regcache, we have to move dump method to their parent class,
reg_buffer. However, the functionality of "dump" looks unnecessary to
reg_buffer (because some dump modes like regcache_dump_none,
regcache_dump_remote and regcache_dump_groups don't need reg_buffer at
all, they need gdbarch to do the dump), so I decide to move "dump" into a
separate classes, and each sub-class is about each mode of dump.

jit.c uses the regcache in a slightly different way, the regcache dosen't
write through to target, but it has read and write methods. If I apply
regcache in record-full.c, it has the similar use pattern. This patch
adds a new class detached_regcache, a register buffer, but can be
read and written.
Since jit.c doesn't want to write registers through to target, it uses
regcache as a readonly regcache (because only readonly regcache
disconnects from the target), but it adds a hole in regcache
(raw_set_cached_value) in order to modify a readonly regcache. This patch
fixes this hole completely.
regcache inherits detached_regcache, and detached_regcache inherits
readable_regcache. The ideal design is that both detached_regcache and
readable_regcache inherit reg_buffer, and regcache inherit
detached_regcache and regcache_read (virtual inheritance). I concern
about the performance overhead of virtual inheritance, so I don't do it in
the patch.

pseudo registers are either from raw registers or memory, so
gdbarch methods pseudo_register_read and pseudo_register_read_value
should have regcache object which only have read methods. In other
words, we should disallow writing to regcache in these two gdbarch
methods. In order to apply this restriction, this patch adds a new
class readable_regcache, derived from reg_buffer, and it only has
raw_read and cooked_read methods. regcache is derived from
readable_regcache. This patch also passes readable_regcache instead of
regcache to gdbarch methods pseudo_register_read and
pseudo_register_read_value.
This patch moves raw_read* and cooked_read* methods to readable_regcache,
which is straightforward. One thing not straightforward is that I split
regcache::xfer_part to readable_regcache::read_part and regcache::write_part,
because readable_regcache can only have methods to read.
readable_regcache is an abstract base class, and it has a pure virtual
function raw_update, because I don't want readable_regcache know where
these raw registers are from. They can be from either the target
(readwrite regcache) or the regcache itself (readonly regcache).

This patch adds a new class reg_buffer, and regcache inherits it. Class
reg_buffer is a very simple class, which has the buffer for register
contents and status only. It doesn't have any methods to set contents and
status, and it is expected that its children classes can inherit it and
add different access methods.
Another reason I keep class reg_buffer so simple is that I think
reg_buffer can be even reused in other classes which need to record the
registers contents and status, like frame cache for example.

Add a pair of MIPS16 branch tests to verify correct R_MIPS16_PC16_S1
relocation generation for cross-section references in a single source.
This complements commit c9775dde32 ("MIPS16: Add R_MIPS16_PC16_S1
branch relocation support").

The `M' and `m' MIPS16 operand codes are functionally the same, denoting
a 7-bit register list that is encoded the same way for both SAVE and
RESTORE. Use `m' for both instructions then, making `M' available for a
different use.
opcodes/
* mips16-opc.c (decode_mips16_operand) <'M'>: Remove case.
(mips16_opcodes): Replace `M' with `m' for "restore".

* opcode/mips.h: Remove `M' operand code.
Literal movement code may grow auto litpool so big that it won't be
possible to jump around it. Limit the size of auto litpools by 1/2 of
the jump range.

* config/tc-xtensa.c (struct litpool_frag): Add new field
literal_count.
(MAX_AUTO_POOL_LITERALS, MAX_EXPLICIT_POOL_LITERALS)
(MAX_POOL_LITERALS): New macro definitions.
(auto_litpool_limit): Initialize to 0.
(md_parse_option): Set auto_litpool_limit in the presence of
--auto-litpools option.

As suggested in long ago in a galaxy far, far away [1], I tried
turning it on and it seems to work, as is evidenced by the Mesa
package in Debian/ia64. Please enable it with the following patch.
[1] https://sourceware.org/ml/binutils/2007-07/msg00241.html
bfd * elfnn-ia64.c (elf_backend_can_gc_sections): Enable.
In gdb.btrace/buffer-size.exp we explicitly ask for the BTS recording format.
This may lead to spurious fails on systems where PT is being used by some other
process at the same time.
Set both PT and BTS buffer sizes to 1 and check that whatever recording format
is used will use a 4KB buffer.
testsuite/
* gdb.btrace/buffer-size.exp: Do not force BTS.
Documentation for .arch_extension says it accepts the same architectural
extensions as those accepted by -mcpu. Given the name and the fact that
-march for obvious reason also accept the same extensions, I believe
it's worth mentioning that it accepts the same extensions as both
-march and -mcpu. This commit addresses that.

gas/
* doc/c-arm.texi (.arch_extension): Mention extensions it accepts are
also the same as -march.
Extend the documentation of 'info line' command to:
1. Make 'info line' with no argument more obvious, and make it clearer
what this does.
2. Cover what happens when a secod 'info line' with no argument is
issued.
3. Extend the example output for 'info line ...' to include
symbolic addresses.
gdb/doc/ChangeLog:
* gdb.texinfo (Machine Code): Additional information about "info
line" command.
