Break out of the outer switch statement once the inner switch for the
BFD_RELOC_CTOR relocation has been processed, preventing double BFD_FAIL
calls from being made, once from the inner switch and then again from
the default case of the outer switch.

Discussion with qemu folks suggests that the vCont description could
be even simpler and clearer. Given we now say:
For each inferior thread, the leftmost action with a matching
thread-id is applied.
There's really no need to even talk about "default" actions, which
raises doubts about whether "default" is special in some way (it's
not).

* gdb.texinfo (Packets) <vCont>: Remove mention of default
actions.
Use AX_CXX_COMPILE_STDCXX to detect if the compiler supports C++11,
and if -std=xxx switches are necessary to enable C++11.
We need to tweak AX_CXX_COMPILE_STDCXX a bit though. Pristine
upstream AX_CXX_COMPILE_STDCXX appends -std=gnu++11 to CXX directly.
That doesn't work for us, because the top level Makefile passes CXX
down to subdirs, and that overrides whatever gdb/Makefile may set CXX
to. The result would be that a make invocation from the build/gdb/
directory would use "g++ -std=gnu++11" as expected, while a make
invocation at the top level would not.
So instead of having AX_CXX_COMPILE_STDCXX set CXX directly, tweak it
to AC_SUBST a separate variable -- CXX_DIALECT -- and use '$(CXX)
(CXX_DIALECT)' to compile/link.
Confirmed that this enables C++11 starting with gcc 4.8, the first gcc
release with full C++11 support.
Also confirmed that configure errors out gracefully with older GCC
releases:

If we need to revert back to making C++11 optional, all that's
necessary is to change the "mandatory" to "optional" in configure.ac
and regenerate configure (both gdb and gdbserver).

This macro throws C++11 code at the compiler in order to check whether
it supports C++11. final/override, rvalue references, static_assert,
decltype, auto, constexpr, etc., and adds -std=gnu++11 to CXX if
necessary.
Nothing uses the macro yet. Simply adding it as separate preliminary
step because we'll need local changes.

Testing a powerpc toolchain running gdbserver on the other end i noticed a
failure in gdb.base/foll-exec.exp. Turns out gdb is outputting a slightly
different pattern due to the presence of debug information.

Now, on my local machine, i get this:

So the output differs slightly and the testcase is actually expecting only
the second form with the "in" anchor.
This patch removes the "in" pattern and lets the test match both kinds of
output.

* gdb.base/foll-exec.exp (do_exec_tests): Make test pattern more
general.
This commit fixes these regressions:
FAIL: gdb.base/maint.exp: mt set per on for expand-symtabs
FAIL: gdb.base/maint.exp: maint set per-command on
caused by commit 1e3b796d58 ("Change command stats reporting to use
class").
gdb.log shows that the command stats are now printing garbage:
(gdb) mt set per on
Command execution time: -6.-419590 (cpu), 1467139648.-7706296840 (wall)
Space used: 9809920 (-33276528 for this command)
(gdb) FAIL: gdb.base/maint.exp: mt set per on for expand-symtabs
while there should have been no output at all.
The stats printing is done from within the scoped_command_stats's
destructor, depending on whether some flags in the object are set.
The problem is simply that scoped_command_stats's ctor misses clearing
those flags on some paths.
Since scoped_command_stats objects are allocated on the stack, whether
you'll see the regression simply depends on whatever happens to
already be on the stack space the object occupies.
gdb/ChangeLog:
2016-10-28 Pedro Alves <palves@redhat.com>
* maint.c (scoped_command_stats::scoped_command_stats): Clear
m_space_enabled, m_time_enabled and m_symtab_enabled.
Most of the time, the trace should be in one piece. This case is handled fine
by GDB. In some cases, however, there may be gaps in the trace. They result
from trace decode errors or from overflows.
A gap in the trace means we lost an unknown amount of trace. Gaps can be very
small, such as a few instructions in the same function, or they can be rather
big. We may, for example, lose a few function calls or returns. The trace may
continue in a different function and we likely don't know how we got there.
Even though we can't say how the program executed across a gap, higher levels
may not be impacted too much by it. Let's assume we have functions a-e and a
trace that looks roughly like this:
a
\
b b
\ /
c <gap> c
/
d d
\ /
e
Even though we can't say for sure, it is likely that b and c are the same
function instance before and after the gap. This patch is trying to connect
the c and b function segments across the gap.
This will add a to the back trace of b on the right hand side. The changes are
reflected in GDB's internal representation of the trace and will improve:
- the output of "record function-call-history /c"
- the output of "backtrace" in replay mode
- source stepping in replay mode
will be improved indirectly via the improved back trace
I don't have an automated test for this patch; decode errors will be fixed and
overflows occur sporadically and are quite rare. I tested it by hacking GDB to
provoke a decode error and on the expected gap in the gdb.btrace/dlopen.exp
test.
The issue is that we can't predict where we will be able to re-sync in case of
errors. For the expected decode error in gdb.btrace/dlopen.exp, for example, we
may be able to re-sync somewhere in dlclose, in test, in main, or not at all.
Here's one example run of gdb.btrace/dlopen.exp with and without this patch.

It worked nicely in this case but it may, of course, also lead to weird
connections; it is a heuristic, after all.
It works best when the gap is small and the trace pieces are long.

When encountering a return for which we have not seen a corresponding call, GDB
starts a new back trace from level -1, i.e. from the level of the first function
in the trace.
In the presence of trace gaps, this may cause some rather big jump.

In this case it will look like we were able to connect the trace parts across
the disabled gap. We were not. More work is required to achieve this.
In the general case, the function-call history for the two trace parts won't
match. They may be off by a few levels or they may be entirely different. All
this patch does is to preserve the indentation level of the record
function-call-history command.
The disabled gap is caused by a sysenter not returning to the next instruction.

I've seen this on 32-bit Fedora 23. I have not investigated what causes this
and whether we can avoid the gap in the first place. Let's first try to make
GDB handle such gaps more gracefully.
gdb/
* btrace.c (ftrace_new_return): Start from the previous function's level
if we can't find a matching call for a return.
An unconditional jump to the start of a function typically indicates a tail
call.
If we can't determine the start of the function at the destination address, we
used to treat it as a tail call, as well. This results in lots of tail calls
for code for which we don't have symbol information.
Restrict the heuristic to only consider jumps as tail calls that switch
functions in the case where we can't determine the start of a function. This
effectively disables tail call detection for code without symbol information.
gdb/
* btrace.c (ftrace_update_function): Update tail call heuristic.
GDB ignores trace gaps from decode errors or overflows at the beginning of the
trace. There isn't really a gap in the trace; the trace just starts a bit
later than expected.
In cases where there is no trace at all or where the trace is smaller than
expected, this may hide the reason for the missing trace.
Allow leading trace gaps. They will be shown as decode warnings and by the
record function-call-history command.

Trace gaps due to overflows or non-contiguous trace are ignored in the 'info

Also add a warning when decoding the trace and print the instruction number
preceding the trace gap in that warning message. It looks like this:
(gdb) info record

Nowadays, we select events to be reported to GDB in random, however
that is not enough when many GDBserver internal events (not reported
to GDB) are generated.
GDBserver pulls all events out of kernel via waitpid, and leave them
pending. When goes through threads which have pending events,
GDBserver uses find_inferior to find the first thread which has
pending event, and consumes it. Note that find_inferior always
iterate threads in a fixed order. If multiple threads keep hitting
GDBserver breakpoints, range stepping with single-step breakpoint for
example, threads in the head of the thread list are more likely to be
processed and threads in the tail are starved. This causes some timeout
fails in gdb.threads/non-stop-fair-events.exp when range stepping is
enabled on arm-linux.
This patch fixes this issue by randomly selecting pending events. It
adds a new function find_inferior_in_random, which iterates threads
which have pending events randomly.

In the ARC assembler, when a cpu type is specified using the .cpu
directive, we rely on the bfd list of arc machine types in order to
validate the cpu name passed in.
This validation is only used in order to check that the cpu type passed
to the .cpu directive matches any machine type selected earlier on the
command line. Once that initial check has passed a full check is
performed using the assemblers internal list of know cpu types.
The problem is that the assembler knows about more cpu types than bfd,
some cpu types known by the assembler are actually aliases for a base
cpu type plus a specific set of assembler extensions. One such example
is NPS400, though more could be added later.
This commit removes the need for the assembler to use the bfd list of
machine types for validation. Instead the error checking, to ensure
that any value passed to a '.cpu' directive matches any earlier command
line selection, is moved into the function arc_select_cpu.
I have taken the opportunity to bundle the 4 separate static globals
that describe the currently selected machine type into a single
structure (called selected_cpu).

The following testcases make GDB crash whenever an invalid sysroot is
provided, when GDB is unable to find a valid path to the symbol file:
gdb.base/catch-syscall.exp
gdb.base/execl-update-breakpoints.exp
gdb.base/foll-exec-mode.exp
gdb.base/foll-exec.exp

gdb.threads/non-ldr-exc-2.exp
gdb.threads/non-ldr-exc-3.exp
gdb.threads/non-ldr-exc-4.exp
gdb.threads/thread-execl.exp
The immediate cause of the segv is that follow_exec is passing a NULL
argument (the result of exec_file_find) to strlen.
However, the problem is deeper than that: follow_exec simply isn't
prepared for the case where sysroot translation fails to locate the
new executable. Actually all callers of exec_file_find have bugs due
to confusion between host and target pathnames. This commit attempts
to fix all that.
In terms of the testcases that were formerly segv'ing, GDB now prints
a warning but continues execution of the new program, so that the
tests now mostly FAIL instead. You could argue the FAILs are due to a
legitimate problem with the test environment setting up the sysroot
translation incorrectly.
A new representative test is added which exercises the ne wwarning
code path even with native testing.
Tested on x86_64 Fedora 23, native and gdbserver.

This makes these flag types be "enum flag" types. The benefit is
making use of C++'s stronger typing -- mixing the flags types by
mistake errors at compile time.
This caught one old bug in symbol_file_add_main_1 already, fixed by
this patch as well:

Above, "flags" are objfile flags, not symfile_add_flags. So that was
actually checking for "flag & OBJF_PSYMTABS_READ", which has the same
value as SYMFILE_NO_READ...
I moved the flags definitions to separate files to break circular

Currently, with "maint set target-non-stop on", that is, when gdb
connects with the non-stop/asynchronous variant of the remote
protocol, even with "set non-stop off", GDB always sends one vCont
packet per thread resumed. This patch makes GDB aggregate and
coalesce vCont packets, so we send vCont packets like "vCont;s:p1.1;c"
in non-stop mode too.
Basically, this is done by:
- Adding a new target method target_commit_resume that is called
after calling target_resume one or more times. When resuming a
batch of threads, we'll only call target_commit_resume once after
calling target_resume for all threads.
- Making the remote target defer sending the actual vCont packet to
target_commit_resume.
Special care must be taken to avoid sending a vCont action with a
"wildcard" thread-id (all threads of process / all threads) when that
would resume threads/processes that should not be resumed. See
remote_commit_resume comments for details.
Unlike all-stop's remote_resume implementation, this handles the case
of too many actions resulting in a too-big vCont packet, by flushing
the vCont packet and starting a new one.
E.g., imagining that the "c" action in:
vCont;s:1;c
overflows the packet buffer, we split the actions like:
vCont;s:1
vCont;c
Tested on x86_64 Fedora 20, with and without "maint set
target-non-stop on".
Also tested with a hack that makes remote_commit_resume flush the vCont
packet after every action appended (which caught a few bugs).

Currently GDB never sends more than one action per vCont packet, when
connected in non-stop mode. A follow up patch will change that, and
it exposed a gdbserver problem with the vCont handling.
For example, this in non-stop mode:
=> vCont;s:p1.1;c
<= OK
Should be equivalent to:
=> vCont;s:p1.1
<= OK
=> vCont;c
<= OK
But gdbserver currently doesn't handle this. In the latter case,
"vCont;c" makes gdbserver clobber the previous step request. This
patch fixes that.
Note the server side must ignore resume actions for the thread that
has a pending %Stopped notification (and any other threads with events
pending), until GDB acks the notification with vStopped. Otherwise,
e.g., the following case is mishandled:
#1 => g (or any other packet)
#2 <= [registers]
#3 <= %Stopped T05 thread:p1.2
#4 => vCont s:p1.1;c
#5 <= OK
Above, the server must not resume thread p1.2 when it processes the
vCont. GDB can't know that p1.2 stopped until it acks the %Stopped
notification. (Otherwise it wouldn't send a default "c" action.)
(The vCont documentation already specifies this.)
Finally, special care must also be given to handling fork/vfork
events. A (v)fork event actually tells us that two processes stopped
-- the parent and the child. Until we follow the fork, we must not
resume the child. Therefore, if we have a pending fork follow, we
must not send a global wildcard resume action (vCont;c). We can still
send process-wide wildcards though.
(The comments above will be added as code comments to gdb in a follow
up patch.)

Nothing is clearing inferior->priv currently. This is a problem if we

gdb 7.12 doesn't compile as C++ (tried with g++ 4.9) on Solaris (tried
10 and 12, sparc and x86). The following patch (relative to the 7.12
release, though I expect most if not all issues to be present on trunk,
too) fixes this.
Only a few of the changes bear explanation:
* Initially, compilation failed whereever defs.h. was included:

This is due to this gem in gdb/defs.h which seems to have been present
like forever:
#ifndef atof
extern double atof (const char *); /* X3.159-1989 4.10.1.1 */
#endif
In the Solaris headers, the appropriate functions are in namespace std,
thus the conflict. I've wrapped the defs.h declaration in !__cplusplus
to avoid this; perhaps it can go completely instead.
* All the casts are necessary to appease g++ and should be pretty
obvious.
* The sol-thread.c changes are here to handle

and are modeled after linux-thread-db.c (try_thread_db_load_1).
The patch allowed both 32 and 64-bit C++ builds on sparc-sun-solaris2.10
and i386-pc-solaris2.10 to complete. The resulting binary hasn't seen
more than a smoke test (invoke it on itself, b main, run) yet.
When investigating the failure to detect -static-libstdc++
