This patch moves the gdbsupport directory to the top level. This is
the next step in the ongoing project to move gdbserver to the top
level.
The bulk of this patch was created by "git mv gdb/gdbsupport gdbsupport".
This patch then adds a build system to gdbsupport and wires it into
the top level. Then it changes gdb to use the top-level build.
gdbserver, on the other hand, is not yet changed. It still does its
own build of gdbsupport.

This changes command_line_input to return a "const char *", which is
appropriate because the memory is owned by command_line_input. Then
it fixes up the users.
I looked at making command_line_input transfer ownership to its caller
instead, but this is complicated due to the way read_next_line is
called, so I decided against it.
Tested by rebuilding.

This simplifies memory management. I've also changed some global variables
to std::string accordingly (which store the result of these functions),
but not all because some are used with add_setshow_optional_filename_cmd

I touched symtab.h and was surprised to see how many files were
rebuilt. I looked into it a bit, and found that defs.h includes
gdbarch.h, which in turn includes many things.
gdbarch.h is only needed by a minority ofthe files in gdb, so this
patch removes the include from defs.h and updates the fallout.
I did "wc -l" on the files in build/gdb/.deps; this patch reduces the
line count from 139935 to 137030; so there are definitely future
build-time savings here.
Note that while I configured with --enable-targets=all, it's possible
that some *-nat.c file needs an update. I could not test all of
these. The buildbot caught a few problems along these lines.

The deprecated_interactive_hook is not used within GDB. It is used in
gdbtk, however this patch removes that use:
https://sourceware.org/ml/insight/2019-q2/msg00001.html

This commit applies all changes made after running the gdb/copyright.py
script.
Note that one file was flagged by the script, due to an invalid
copyright header
(gdb/unittests/basic_string_view/element_access/char/empty.cc).
As the file was copied from GCC's libstdc++-v3 testsuite, this commit
leaves this file untouched for the time being; a patch to fix the header
was sent to gcc-patches first.
gdb/ChangeLog:
Update copyright year range in all GDB files.
On ARM, PikeOS does not support hardware single step, causing various
semi-random errors when trying to next/step over some user code. So
this patch changes this target to use software-single-step instead.
The challenge is that, up to now, the PikeOS target was in all respects
identical to a baremetal target as far as GDB was concerned, meaning
we were using the baremetal osabi for this target too. This is no longer
possible, and we need to introduce a new OSABI variant. Unfortunately,
there isn't anything in the object file that would allow us to
differentiate between the two platforms. So we have to rely on a
heuristic instead, where we look for some known symbols that are
required in a PikeOS application (these symbols are expected to be
defined by the default linker script, and correspond to routines used
to allocate the application stack).
For the long run, the hope is that the stub implementation provided
by PikeOS is enhanced so that it includes vContSupported+ to the
$qSupported query, and then that the reply to the "vCont?" query
only return support for "continue" operations (thus exclusing "step"
operations). We could then use that information to reliably determine
at connection time that the target does not support single-stepping
and therefore automatically turn software single-stepping automatically
based on it.
gdb/ChangeLog:
* defs.h (enum gdb_osabi): Add GDB_OSABI_PIKEOS.
* osabi.c (gdb_osabi_names): Add name for GDB_OSABI_PIKEOS.
* arm-pikeos-tdep.c: New file.

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.
Tested by the buildbot.

I was looking for a way to reproduce easily PR 22979 by doing this:
(gdb) set architecture i386:x86-64
(gdb) set osabi none
However, I noticed that even though I did "set osabi none", the gdbarch
gdb created was for Linux:
(gdb) set debug arch 1
(gdb) set architecture i386:x86-64
...
(gdb) set osabi none
gdbarch_find_by_info: info.bfd_arch_info i386:x86-64
gdbarch_find_by_info: info.byte_order 1 (little)
gdbarch_find_by_info: info.osabi 4 (GNU/Linux) <--- Wrong?
gdbarch_find_by_info: info.abfd 0x0
gdbarch_find_by_info: info.tdep_info 0x0
gdbarch_find_by_info: Previous architecture 0x1e6fd30 (i386:x86-64)
selected
gdbarch_update_p: Architecture 0x1e6fd30 (i386:x86-64) unchanged
This is because the value GDB_OSABI_UNKNOWN has an unclear role,
sometimes meaning "no osabi" and sometimes "please selected
automatically". Doing "set osabi none" sets the requested osabi to
GDB_OSABI_UNKNOWN, in which case gdbarch_info_fill overrides it with a
value from the target description, or the built-in default osabi. This
means that it's impossible to force GDB not to use an osabi with "set
osabi". Since my GDB's built-in default osabi is Linux, it always falls
back to GDB_OSABI_LINUX.
To fix it, I introduced GDB_OSABI_NONE, which really means "I don't want
any osabi". GDB_OSABI_UNKNOWN can then be used only for "not set yet,
please auto-detect". GDB_OSABI_UNINITIALIZED now seems unnecessary
since it overlaps with GDB_OSABI_UNKNOWN, so I think it can be removed
and gdbarch_info::osabi can be initialized to GDB_OSABI_UNKNOWN.

This converts observers from using a special source-generating script
to be plain C++. This version of the patch takes advantage of C++11
by using std::function and variadic templates; incorporates Pedro's
patches; and renames the header file to "observable.h" (this change
eliminates the need for a clean rebuild).
Note that Pedro's patches used a template lambda in tui-hooks.c, but
this failed to compile on some buildbot instances (presumably due to
differing C++ versions); I replaced this with an ordinary template
function.
Regression tested on the buildbot.

This commit moves the path manipulation routines found on utils.c to a
new common/pathstuff.c, and updates the Makefile.in's accordingly.
The routines moved are "gdb_realpath", "gdb_realpath_keepfile" and
"gdb_abspath".
This will be needed because gdbserver will have to call "gdb_abspath"
on my next patch, which implements a way to expand the path of the
inferior provided by the user in order to allow specifying just the
binary name when starting gdbserver, like:
$ gdbserver :1234 a.out
With the recent addition of the startup-with-shell feature on
gdbserver, this scenario doesn't work anymore if the user doesn't have
the current directory listed in the PATH variable.
I had to do a minor adjustment on "gdb_abspath" because we don't have
access to "tilde_expand" on gdbserver, so now the function is using
"gdb_tilde_expand" instead. Otherwise, the code is the same.
Regression tested on the BuildBot, without regressions.

Some testcases needed to be updated as they were missing
.debug_aranges. While that does not matter for no-index (as GDB
builds the mapping internally during dwarf2_build_psymtabs_hard) and
neither for .gdb_index (as GDB uses that internally built mapping
which it stores into .gdb_index) it does matter for .debug_names as
that simply assumes existing .debug_aranges from GCC.

I think it would make more sense if the types and function declarations
related to command lines were in cli-script.h rather than defs.h, since
the related function definitions are in cli-script.c.
I had to add a few includes here and there. I also had to rename the
"lines" parameter of command_lines_deleter::operator(), because ncurses
has a "#define lines ..." that was interfering when cli-script.h is
included by some TUI source files that also include ncurses header files.

Profiling GDB with the rest of series applied, I saw calls to
language_def showing up high in some runs. The problem is that
language_def is O(N) currently, since walk the languages vector each
time to find the matching language_defn.
IMO, the add_language mechanism is pointless, because "enum language"
implies the core of GDB needs to know about all languages anyway. So
simply make the languages vector array be an array where each
element's index is the corresponding enum language enumerator. Note
that "local_language_defn" is gone along the way. It's just a copy of
"auto", so the new code simply maps one to the other. One fewer place
to update when we need to change the language vector...
Also, a while ago the output of "set language" was made out of order
as side effect of some other change. While I was at it, I made them
sorted again.

This patch converts functions extract_{unsigned,signed}_integer

This introduces command_line_up, a unique_ptr for command_line
objects, and changes many places to use it. This removes a number of
cleanups.
Command lines are funny in that sometimes they are reference counted.
Once there is more C++-ification of some of the users, perhaps all of
these can be changed to use shared_ptr instead.

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.
This patch fixes a few problems with GDB's time handling.
#1 - It avoids problems with gnulib's C++ namespace support
On MinGW, the struct timeval that should be passed to gnulib's
gettimeofday replacement is incompatible with libiberty's
timeval_sub/timeval_add. That's because gnulib also replaces "struct
timeval" with its own definition, while libiberty expects the
system's.
E.g., in code like this:
gettimeofday (&prompt_ended, NULL);
timeval_sub (&prompt_delta, &prompt_ended, &prompt_started);
timeval_add (&prompt_for_continue_wait_time,
&prompt_for_continue_wait_time, &prompt_delta);
That's currently handled in gdb by not using gnulib's gettimeofday at
all (see common/gdb_sys_time.h), but that #undef hack won't work with
if/when we enable gnulib's C++ namespace support, because that mode
adds compile time warnings for uses of ::gettimeofday, which are hard
errors with -Werror.
#2 - But there's an elephant in the room: gettimeofday is not monotonic...
We're using it to:
a) check how long functions take, for performance analysis
b) compute when in the future to fire events in the event-loop
c) print debug timestamps
But that's exactly what gettimeofday is NOT meant for. Straight from
the man page:
~~~
The time returned by gettimeofday() is affected by
discontinuous jumps in the system time (e.g., if the system
administrator manually changes the system time). If you need a
monotonically increasing clock, see clock_gettime(2).
~~~
std::chrono (part of the C++11 standard library) has a monotonic clock
exactly for such purposes (std::chrono::steady_clock). This commit
switches to use that instead of gettimeofday, fixing all the issues
mentioned above.

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
/vol/src/gnu/gdb/gdb-7.12/gdb/sol-thread.c: In function 'void _initialize_sol_thread()':

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++
support (more below), I found two more issues which only show up with
-Werror:

Unless I'm mistaken, you need to run do_cleanups on every return from

Fixed by casting pid_t to long and printing it as such.
With this patch, when an inferior, thread or frame is explicitly
selected by the user, notifications will appear on all CLI and MI UIs.
When a GDB console is integrated in a front-end, this allows the
front-end to follow a selection made by the user ont he CLI, and it
informs the user about selection changes made behind the scenes by the
front-end.
This patch addresses PR gdb/20487.
In order to communicate frame changes to the front-end, this patch adds
a new field to the =thread-selected event for the selected frame. The
idea is that since inferior/thread/frame can be seen as a composition,
it makes sense to send them together in the same event. The vision
would be to eventually send the inferior information as well, if we find
that it's needed, although the "=thread-selected" event would be
ill-named for that job.
Front-ends need to handle this new field if they want to follow the
frame selection changes that originate from the console. The format of
the frame attribute is the same as what is found in the *stopped events.
Here's a detailed example for each command and the events they generate:
thread
------
1. CLI command:
thread 1.3
MI event:
=thread-selected,id="3",frame={...}
2. MI command:
-thread-select 3
CLI event:
[Switching to thread 1.3 ...]
3. MI command (CLI-in-MI):
thread 1.3
MI event/reply:
&"thread 1.3\n"
~"#0 child_sub_function () ...
=thread-selected,id="3",frame={level="0",...}
^done
frame
-----
1. CLI command:
frame 1
MI event:
=thread-selected,id="3",frame={level="1",...}
2. MI command:
-stack-select-frame 1
CLI event:
#1 0x00000000004007f0 in child_function...
3. MI command (CLI-in-MI):
frame 1
MI event/reply:
&"frame 1\n"
~"#1 0x00000000004007f9 in ..."
=thread-selected,id="3",frame={level="1"...}
^done
inferior
--------
Inferior selection events only go from the console to MI, since there's
no way to select the inferior in pure MI.
1. CLI command:
inferior 2
MI event:
=thread-selected,id="3"
Note that if the user selects an inferior that is not started or exited,
the MI doesn't receive a notification. Since there is no threads to
select, the =thread-selected event does not apply...
2. MI command (CLI-in-MI):
inferior 2
MI event/reply:
&"inferior 2\n"
~"[Switching to inferior 2 ...]"
=thread-selected,id="4",frame={level="0"...}
^done
Internal implementation detail: this patch makes it possible to suppress
notifications caused by a CLI command, like what is done in mi-interp.c.
This means that it's now possible to use the
add_com_suppress_notification function to register a command with some
event suppressed. It is used to implement the select-frame command in
this patch.
The function command_notifies_uscc_observer was added to extract
the rather complicated logical expression from the if statement. It is
also now clearer what that logic does: if the command used by the user
already notifies the user_selected_context_changed observer, there is
not need to notify it again. It therefore protects again emitting the
event twice.
No regressions, tested on ubuntu 14.04 x86 with target boards unix and
native-extended-gdbserver.

PR python/20190 arose from an exception I noticed when trying to use
the Python unwinder for Spider Monkey in Firefox.
The problem is that the unwinder wants to examine the value of a
thread-local variable. However, sympy_value rejects this because
symbol_read_needs_frame returns true for a TLS variable.
This problem arose once before, though in a different context:
https://sourceware.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=11803
At the time Pedro and Daniel pointed out a simpler way to fix that bug
(see links in 20190 if you are interested); but for this new bug I
couldn't think of a similar fix and ended up implementing Daniel's
other suggestion:
https://sourceware.org/ml/gdb-patches/2010-07/msg00393.html
That is, this patch makes it possible to detect whether a symbol needs
a specific frame, or whether it just needs the inferior to have
registers.
Built and regtested on x86-64 Fedora 24.

PR python/20190:
* gdb.threads/tls.exp (check_thread_local): Add python symbol
test.
This patch moves most of the demangling logic out of
symbol_find_demangled_name into the various language_defn objects.
The simplest way to do this seemed to be to add a new method to
language_defn. This is shame given the existing la_demangle, but
given Ada's unusual needs, and the differing demangling options
between languages, la_demangle didn't seem to fit.
In order to make this work, I made enum language order-sensitive.
This helps preserve the current ordering of demangling operations.
