For remote debugging, gdbserver will now always advertise branch tracing related
packets. When talking to an older GDB, this will cause GDB to try to enable
branch tracing and gdbserver to report a suitable error message every time.
An older gdbserver will not advertise branch tracing related packets if the
one-time check failed, so a newer GDB with this patch will fail to enable branch
tracing at remote_enable_btrace() rather than at btrace_enable(). The error
message is the same in both cases so there should be no user-visible change.

As reported here:
https://sourceware.org/ml/gdb/2018-02/msg00019.html
the type of values representing static members that are optimized out is
wrong. It currently assigns the type of the containing class rather
than the type of the field. This patch fixes that.

The nm utility supports -l for using debug information to obtain file and line information for each symbol, if available.
We have a tool that consumes this information and displays it.
This identified a problem with the 'nm' utility.
When a source is compiled with -O2, functions can be inlined. The compiler also produces an uninlined copy of the function, normally for linking to other object files.
In the case of DWARF2 debug information, the compiler generates debug information to describe a function. If that function is inlined, the compiler then references that debug information from the inlined and uninlined copies of the routine through the use of the DW_AT_abstract_origin reference.
When nm is used on such a file, it is not able to find file and line information because that information is present in the common debug information and not at each actual implementation of the function.
The 'nm' utility only retrieves the name of the function from the abstract origin debug information and no more.
What I am proposing is to modify the find_abstract_instance_name() function (which I renamed to find_abstract_instance() ) to return the name of the function as well as any file and line information. The routine is already parsing all of the debug information in the abstract instance, so it is easy to pick up the file and line information at that time. If, for some reason, the file and line information is not present, the routine behaves as before.
For example, if I have a simple test case:
int foo(int j)
{
if (j < 15)
j += j << 2;
else
j += j << 6;
return j;
}
int main (int argc,char **argv)
{
int i = argc;
i += foo(i);
return i;
}
If that test case is compiled with -O2 and then 'nm -l' reads that executable, it currently produces this symbol output (ignoring a lot of library symbols):
8048400 T foo
080482e0 T main /scratch/pcarroll/its254/test/mytest.c:12
If I modify 'nm' to return file and line information for abstract instances, it produces the following output:
08048400 T foo /scratch/pcarroll/its254/test/mytest.c:1
080482e0 T main /scratch/pcarroll/its254/test/mytest.c:12

Remove the make_gdb_type functions from the tdesc_type_ classes.
Replace with a static make_gdb_type function that uses a element
visitor called gdb_type_creator.

Report an error when an unsupported `.reginfo' section size is found in
`_bfd_mips_elf_section_processing', removing an assertion that triggers
at elfxx-mips.c:7105 in GAS when assembling input like:
.section .reginfo
.word 0xdeadbeef
and in `objcopy --rename-section' when renaming an incorrectly sized
section to `.reginfo'.
