New in v5:
- Use gdb_test_name for gdb_test_multiple.
- Use gdb_assert.
- Verify count matches the expected sigtraps exactly.
New in v4:
- Fix formatting nit in gdb/testsuite/gdb.arch/aarch64-brk-patterns.c.
New in v3:
- Minor formatting and code cleanups.
- Added count check to validate number of brk SIGTRAP's.
- Moved count to SIGTRAP check conditional block.
This test exercises the previous patch's code and makes sure GDB can
properly get a SIGTRAP from various brk instruction patterns.
GDB needs to be able to see the program exiting normally. If GDB doesn't
support the additional brk instructions, we will see timeouts.
We bail out with the first timeout since we won't be able to step through
the program breakpoint anyway, so it is no use carrying on.

The speed optimization from commit 5f6cac4085
made GDB skip reloading all symbols when the same symbol file is reloaded.
As a result, ARM targets only read the mapping symbols the first time we
load a symbol file. When reloaded, the speed optimization above will
cause an early return and gdbarch_record_special_symbol won't be called to
save mapping symbol data, which in turn affects disassembling of thumb
instructions.
First load and correct disassemble output:
Dump of assembler code for function main:
0x0000821c <+0>: bx pc
0x0000821e <+2>: nop
0x00008220 <+4>: mov r0, #0
0x00008224 <+8>: bx lr
Second load and incorrect disassemble output:
Dump of assembler code for function main:
0x0000821c <+0>: bx pc
0x0000821e <+2>: nop
0x00008220 <+4>: movs r0, r0
0x00008222 <+6>: b.n 0x8966
0x00008224 <+8>: vrhadd.u16 d14, d14, d31
This happens because the mapping symbol data is stored in an objfile_key-based
container, and that data isn't preserved across the two symbol loading
operations.
The following patch fixes this by storing the mapping symbol data in a
bfd_key-based container, which doesn't change as long as the bfd is the same.
I've also added a new test to verify the correct disassemble output.

On my openSUSE Leap 15.1 x86_64 Skylake system with the default (4.12) kernel,
I run into:
...
FAIL: gdb.base/gcore.exp: corefile restored all registers
...
The problem is that there's a difference in the mxcsr register value before
and after the gcore command:
...
- mxcsr 0x0 [ ]
+ mxcsr 0x400440 [ DAZ OM ]
...
This can be traced back to amd64_linux_nat_target::fetch_registers, where
xstateregs is partially initialized by the ptrace call:
...
char xstateregs[X86_XSTATE_MAX_SIZE];
struct iovec iov;
amd64_collect_xsave (regcache, -1, xstateregs, 0);
iov.iov_base = xstateregs;
iov.iov_len = sizeof (xstateregs);
if (ptrace (PTRACE_GETREGSET, tid,
(unsigned int) NT_X86_XSTATE, (long) &iov) < 0)
perror_with_name (_("Couldn't get extended state status"));
amd64_supply_xsave (regcache, -1, xstateregs);
...
after which amd64_supply_xsave is called.
The amd64_supply_xsave call is supposed to only use initialized parts of
xstateregs, but due to a kernel bug on intel skylake (fixed from 4.14 onwards
by commit 0852b374173b "x86/fpu: Add FPU state copying quirk to handle XRSTOR
failure on Intel Skylake CPUs") it can happen that the mxcsr part of
xstateregs is not initialized, while amd64_supply_xsave expects it to be
initialized, which explains the FAIL mentioned above.
Fix the undetermined behaviour by initializing xstateregs before calling
ptrace, which makes sure we get a 0x0 for mxcsr when this kernel bug occurs,
and which also happens to fix the FAIL.
Furthermore, add an xfail for this FAIL which triggers the same kernel bug:
...
FAIL: gdb.arch/amd64-init-x87-values.exp: check_setting_mxcsr_before_enable: \
check new value of MXCSR is still in place
...
Both FAILs pass when using a 5.3 kernel instead on the system mentioned above.

When saving registers to the stack at the start of a function, not all state
needs to be saved. For example, only the first 64bits of float registers need
saving. However, a program may choose to store extra state if it wishes,

GDB is not able to execute "step" command on function calls of Armv8-M cmse secure entry functions.
Everytime GNU linker come across definition of any cmse secure entry function in object file(s),
it creates two new instructions secure gateway (sg) and original branch destination (b.w),
place those two instructions in ".gnu.sgstubs" section of executable.
Any function calls to these cmse secure entry functions is re-directed through secure gateway (sg)
present in ".gnu.sgstubs" section.
Example:
Following is a function call to cmse secure entry function "foo":
...
bl xxxx <foo> --->(a)
...
<foo>
xxxx: push {r7, lr}
GNU linker on finding out "foo" is a cmse secure entry function, created sg and b.w instructions and
place them in ".gnu.sgstubs" section (marked by c).
The "bl" instruction (marked by a) which is a call to cmse secure entry function is modified by GNU linker
(as marked by b) and call flow is re-directly through secure gateway (sg) in ".gnu.sgstubs" section.
...
bl yyyy <foo> ---> (b)
...
section .gnu.sgstubs: ---> (c)
yyyy <foo>
yyyy: sg // secure gateway
b.w xxxx <__acle_se_foo> // original_branch_dest
...
0000xxxx <__acle_se_foo>
xxxx: push {r7, lr} ---> (d)
On invoking GDB, when the control is at "b" and we pass "step" command, the pc returns "yyyy"
(sg address) which is a trampoline and which does not exist in source code. So GDB jumps
to next line without jumping to "__acle_se_foo" (marked by d).
The above details are published on the Arm website [1], please refer to section 5.4 (Entry functions)
and section 3.4.4 (C level development flow of secure code).

When making inferior function calls GDB sets up a dummy code region on
the stack, and places a breakpoint within that region. If the random
stack contents appear to be a compressed instruction then GDB will
place a compressed breakpoint, which can cause problems if the target
doesn't support compressed instructions.
This commit prevents this issue by writing a 4-byte nop instruction to
the dummy region at the time the region is allocated. With this nop
instruction in place, when we come to insert the breakpoint then an
uncompressed breakpoint will be used.
This is similar to other targets, for example mips.

It was observed that in some cases, placing a breakpoint in an
assembler file using filename:line-number syntax would result in the
breakpoint being placed at a different line within the file.
For example, consider this x86-64 assembler:
test:
push %rbp /* Break here. */
mov %rsp, %rbp
nop /* Stops here. */
The user places the breakpoint using file:line notation targeting the
line marked 'Break here', GDB actually stops at the line marked 'Stops
here'.
The reason is that the label 'test' is identified as the likely start
of a function, and the call to symtab.c:skip_prologue_sal causes GDB
to skip forward over the instructions that GDB believes to be part of
the prologue.
I believe however, that when debugging assembler code, where the user
has instruction-by-instruction visibility, if they ask for a specific
line, GDB should (as far as possible) stop on that line, and not
perform any prologue skipping. I don't believe that the behaviour of
higher level languages should change, in these cases skipping the
prologue seems like the correct thing to do.
In order to implement this change I needed to extend our current
tracking of when the user has requested an explicit line number. We
already tracked this in some cases, but not in others (see the changes
in linespec.c). However, once I did this I started to see some
additional failures (in tests gdb.base/break-include.exp
gdb.base/ending-run.exp gdb.mi/mi-break.exp gdb.mi/mi-reverse.exp
gdb.mi/mi-simplerun.exp) where we currently expected a breakpoint
placed at one file and line number to be updated to reference a
different line number, this was fixed by removing some code in
symtab.c:skip_prologue_sal. My concern here is that removing this
check didn't cause anything else to fail.
I have a new test that covers my original case, this is written for
x86-64 as most folk have access to such a target, however, any
architecture that has a prologue scanner can be impacted by this
change.

If the RISC-V prologue scanner finds a 6 or 8 byte instruction we
currently throw an internal error, which is not great for the user.
A mechanism already exists in the prologue scanner to leave
instructions marked as unknown so that we can stop the prologue scan
without raising an error, this is used for all 2 and 4 byte
instructions that are not part of the small set the prologue scanner
actually understands.

Commit 4aa866af ("Fix AMD64 return value ABI in expression
evaluation") introduced a regression when calling a function with a
structure that contains bitfields.
Because the caller of amd64_has_unaligned_fields handles bitfields
already, it seemed to me that the simplest fix was to ignore bitfields
here.

The AMD64 System V ABI specifies that when a function has a return type
classified as MEMORY, the caller provides space for the value and passes
the address to this space as the first argument to the function (before
even the "this" pointer). The classification of MEMORY is applied to
struct that are sufficiently large, or ones with unaligned fields.
The expression evaluator uses call_function_by_hand to call functions,
and the hand-built frame has to push arguments in a way that matches the
ABI of the called function. call_function_by_hand supports ABI-based
struct returns, based on the value of gdbarch_return_value, however on
AMD64 the implementation of the classifier incorrectly assumed that all
non-POD types (implemented as "all types with a base class") should be
classified as MEMORY and use the struct return.
This ABI mismatch resulted in issues when calling a function that returns
a class of size <16 bytes which has a base class, including issues such
as the "this" pointer being incorrect (as it was passed as the second
argument rather than the first).
This is now fixed by checking for field alignment rather than POD-ness,
and a testsuite is added to test expression evaluation for AMD64.

This patch defines pseudo-registers "v0" through "v31" as aliases that
map to the corresponding raw "vr0" through "vr31" vector registers for
Power.
The motivation behind this is that although GDB defines these
registers as "vrX", the disassembler prints them as "vX", e.g. as the
operands in instructions such as "vaddubm v2,v1,v1". This can be
confusing to users trying to print out the values of the operands
while inspecting the disassembled code.
The new aliases are made not to belong to any register group, to avoid
duplicated values in "info register vector" and "info register all".
The arch-specific rs6000_pseudo_register_reggroup_p function had
previously been removed since the other pseudo-registers could have
their groups inferred by their type. It restored with this patch to
handle the aliases. Membership for the other pseudo-registers is
still determined using the default function.
A new tests checks that GDB prints the expected values of vector
registers after they are filled by the inferior, by using both the raw
names and the aliases. Two other existing tests are modified to also
test the aliases.

Update copyright year range in all GDB files.
Various tests use test code written in i386 / x86_64 assembly that cannot
be used to create PIE executables. Therefore compilation of test programs
failed on systems where the compiler default is to create PIE executable.
The solution is to use -no-pie linker flag, however, such flag may not
(is not) supported by all compilers GDB needs to support (e.g. gcc 4.8).
To handle this, introduce a new flag to gdb_compile - nopie - which
inserts -no-pie linker flag where supported and is no-op where it is
not. By default, -no-pie flag is inserted since most modern compiler do
support it.
The three AVX512 state components are entirely independent - one being
in its "init state" has no implication whatsoever on either of the other
two. Fully separate X86_XSTATE_ZMM_H and X86_XSTATE_ZMM handling, to
prevent upper halves of the upper 16 ZMM registers to display as if they
were zero (when they aren't) after e.g. VZEROALL/VZEROUPPER.
Update gdb.arch/riscv-reg-aliases.exp test to support targets without
floating point registers.
gdb/testsuite/ChangeLog:
* gdb.arch/riscv-reg-aliases.exp: Handle targets without floating
point hardware.
In AIX if gdb is debugging an application which has a signal handler
and reaches the signal handler frame, then we need to read the back
chain address from sigcontext saved on the stack, similarly the LR.
As backchain at an offset 0 will be 0, because we will have a
sigconext saved after the minimum stack size. So the correct
backchain will be at an offset after minimum stack and the LR at
an offset 8 will be of the signal millicode address.
If the back chain pointer is NULL and the LR field is in the kernel
segment(ex. 0x00004a14) then we can probably assume we are in a
signal handler.

The gdb.arch/riscv-reg-aliases.exp test didn't take into account that
on RV64 (and RV128) the floating point registers are represented as a
union. This patch updates the test to handle this.
Tested against RV32 and RV64.
gdb/testsuite/ChangeLog:
* gdb.arch/riscv-reg-aliases.exp: Rewrite to take account of float
registers being unions.
In the 'info -q -t' patch series, I started a new test from
gdb.threads/threadapply.exp, that uses an obsolete way to do
runto_main.
This patch changes all occurrences of runto_main using gdb_suppress_tests
to use instead fail+return.
Note that there are still about 220 occurrences of gdb_suppress_tests
but unclear (to me) if these can be similarly trivially be replaced by a
fail+return. Further cleanup can be done in follow-up patches.
Tests run on Debian/x86_64.

This patch adds support for Hardware Transactional Memory registers
for the powerpc linux native and core file targets, and for the
pwoerpc linux server stub.
These registers include both the HTM special-purpose registers (TFHAR,
TEXASR and TFIAR) as well as the set of registers that are
checkpointed (saved) when a transaction is initiated, which the
processor restores in the event of a transaction failure.
The set of checkpointed general-purpose registers is returned by the
linux kernel in the same format as the regular general-purpose
registers, defined in struct pt_regs. However, the architecture
specifies that only some of the registers present in pt_regs are
checkpointed (GPRs 0-31, CR, XER, LR and CTR). The kernel fills the
slots for MSR and NIP with other info. The other fields usually don't
have meaningful values. GDB doesn't define registers that are not
checkpointed in the architecture, but when generating a core file, GDB
fills the slot for the checkpointed MSR with the regular MSR. These
are usually similar, although some bits might be different, and in
some cases the checkpointed MSR will have a value of 0 in a
kernel-generated core-file. The checkpointed NIP is filled with TFHAR
by GDB in the core-file, which is what the kernel does. The other
fields are set to 0 by GDB.
Core files generated by the kernel have a note section for
checkpointed GPRs with the same size for both 32-bit and 64-bit
threads, and the values for the registers of a 32-bit thread are
squeezed in the first half, with no useful data in the second half.
GDB generates a smaller note section for 32-bit threads, but can read
both sizes.
The checkpointed XER is required to be 32-bit in the target
description documentation, even though the more recent ISAs define it
as 64-bit wide, since the high-order 32-bits are reserved, and because
in Linux there is no way to get a 64-bit checkpointed XER for 32-bit
threads. If this changes in the future, the target description
feature requirement can be relaxed to allow for a 64-bit checkpointed
XER.
Access to the checkpointed CR (condition register) can be confusing.
The architecture only specifies that CR fields 1 to 7 (the 24 least
significant bits) are checkpointed, but the kernel provides all 8
fields (32 bits). The value of field 0 is not masked by ptrace, so it
will sometimes show the result of some kernel operation, probably
treclaim., which sets this field.
The checkpointed registers are marked not to be saved and restored.
Inferior function calls during an active transaction don't work well,
and it's unclear what should be done in this case. TEXASR and TFIAR
can be altered asynchronously, during transaction failure recording,
so they are also not saved and restored. For consistency neither is
TFHAR.
Record and replay also doesn't work well when transactions are
involved. This patch doesn't address this, so the values of the HTM
SPRs will sometimes be innacurate when the record/relay target is
enabled. For instance, executing a "tbegin." alters TFHAR and TEXASR,
but these changes are not currently recorded.
Because the checkpointed registers are only available when a
transaction is active (or suspended), ptrace can return ENODATA when
gdb tries to read these registers and the inferior is not in a
transactional state. The registers are set to the unavailable state
when this happens. When gbd tries to write to one of these registers,
and it is unavailable, an error is raised.
The "fill" functions for checkpointed register sets in the server stub
are not implemented for the same reason as for the EBB register set,
since ptrace can also return ENODATA for checkpointed regsets. The
same issues with 'G' packets apply here.
Just like for the EBB registers, tracepoints will not mark the
checkpointed registers as unavailable if the inferior was not in a
transaction, so their content will also show 0 instead of
<unavailable> when inspecting trace data.
The new tests record the values of the regular registers before
stepping the inferior through a "tbegin." instruction to start a
transaction, then the checkpointed registers are checked against the
recorded pre-transactional values. New values are written to the
checkpointed registers and recorded, the inferior continues until the
transaction aborts (which is usually immediately when it is resumed),
and the regular registers are checked against the recorded values,
because the abort should have reverted the registers to these values.
Like for the EBB registers, target_store_registers will ignore the
checkpointed registers when called with -1 as the regno
argument (store all registers in one go).

Some confusion over how the register names and aliases are setup in
riscv means that we currently can't access registers through their
architectural name.
This commit fixes this issue, and moves some of the csr register
handling out of the alias handling code and deals with it separately.
This has the benefit that we can now directly access some arrays
rather than having to iterate over them.
A new test is added to ensure that register aliases now work
correctly.

Another case of incomplete regexp. The problem is very similar to the
one happening with gdb.arch/amd64-invalid-stack-middle.exp.
The output when GDB is compiled with "--enable-targets" is:
(gdb) interpreter-exec mi "-stack-list-frames"
^done,stack=[frame={level="0",addr="0x00000000004005e7",func="func2",arch="i386:x86-64"}]
While the output when "--enable-targets" is not specified is:
(gdb) interpreter-exec mi "-stack-list-frames"
^done,stack=[frame={level="0",addr="0x00000000004005e7",func="func2"}]
The fix is, again, to extend the current regexp and expect for the
optional "arch=" part. With this patch, the test now passes on both
scenarios.
OK?

* gdb.arch/amd64-invalid-stack-top.exp: Expect optional

While regression-testing GDB on Fedora Rawhide, I saw the following
output when running gdb.arch/amd64-invalid-stack-middle.exp's
"-stack-list-frames" test:
(gdb) interpreter-exec mi "-stack-list-frames"

This test is currently failing on Rawhide. However, this output is
almost the same as I get on my local Fedora 28 machine (where the test
is passing):
(gdb) interpreter-exec mi "-stack-list-frames"
^done,stack=[frame={level="0",addr="0x00000000004005da",func="breakpt",file="amd64-invalid-stack-middle.c",fullname="/home/sergio/work/src/git/binutils-gdb/binutils-gdb/gdb/testsuite/gdb.arch/amd64-invalid-stack-middle.c",line="27"},frame={level="1",addr="0x00000000004005ea",func="func5",file="amd64-invalid-stack-middle.c",fullname="/home/sergio/work/src/git/binutils-gdb/binutils-gdb/gdb/testsuite/gdb.arch/amd64-invalid-stack-middle.c",line="32"},frame={level="2",addr="0x00000000004005fa",func="func4",file="amd64-invalid-stack-middle.c",fullname="/home/sergio/work/src/git/binutils-gdb/binutils-gdb/gdb/testsuite/gdb.arch/amd64-invalid-stack-middle.c",line="38"},frame={level="3",addr="0x000000000040060a",func="func3",file="amd64-invalid-stack-middle.c",fullname="/home/sergio/work/src/git/binutils-gdb/binutils-gdb/gdb/testsuite/gdb.arch/amd64-invalid-stack-middle.c",line="44"}]
With the exception that there's an "arch=" keyword on Fedora Rawhide's
version. This is because, on Rawhide, I've compiled GDB with
"--enable-targets=xyz,kqp,etc.", while locally I haven't.
This is easy to fix: we just have to extend the regexp and expect for
the optional "arch=" keyword there. It's what this patch does. With
it applied, the test now passes everywhere.
OK?

PR gdb/18931:
* gdb.arch/aarch64-fp.c (main): Fix asm registers.
Implement MIPS target support for passing options to the disassembler,
complementing commit 65b48a8140 ("GDB: Add support for the new
set/show disassembler-options commands.").
This includes options that expect an argument, so adjust the generic
code and data structures used so as to handle such options. So as to
give backends syntax flexibility no specific delimiter has been defined
to separate options from their respective arguments, so it has to be
included as the last character of the option name. Completion code
however has not been adjusted and consequently option arguments cannot
be completed at this time.
Also the MIPS target has non-empty defaults for the options, so that ABI
names for the general-purpose registers respect our `set mips abi ...'
setting rather than always being determined from the ELF headers of the
binary file selected. Handle these defaults as implicit options, never
shown to the user and always prepended to the user-specified options, so
that the latters can override the defaults.
The resulting output for the MIPS target is as follows:
(gdb) show disassembler-options
The current disassembler options are ''
The following disassembler options are supported for use with the
'set disassembler-options <option>[,<option>...]' command:
no-aliases Use canonical instruction forms.
msa Recognize MSA instructions.
virt Recognize the virtualization ASE instructions.
xpa Recognize the eXtended Physical Address (XPA) ASE
instructions.
ginv Recognize the Global INValidate (GINV) ASE instructions.
gpr-names=ABI Print GPR names according to specified ABI.
Default: based on binary being disassembled.
fpr-names=ABI Print FPR names according to specified ABI.
Default: numeric.
cp0-names=ARCH Print CP0 register names according to specified architecture.
Default: based on binary being disassembled.

Default: based on binary being disassembled.
reg-names=ABI Print GPR and FPR names according to specified ABI.

which corresponds to what `objdump --help' used to print for the MIPS
target, with minor formatting changes, most notably option argument
lists being wrapped, but also the amount of white space separating
options from the respective descriptions. The relevant part the new
code is now also used by `objdump --help', which means these formatting
changes apply to both outputs, except for argument list wrapping, which
is GDB-specific.
This also adds a separating new line between the heading and option
lists where descriptions are provided, hence:
(gdb) set architecture s390:31-bit
(gdb) show disassembler-options

The following disassembler options are supported for use with the
'set disassembler-options <option>[,<option>...]' command:

zarch Disassemble in z/Architecture mode
insnlength Print unknown instructions according to length from first two bits
(gdb)
but:

(gdb)
Existing affected target backends have been adjusted accordingly.
This has been verified manually with:
(gdb) set architecture arm
(gdb) set architecture powerpc:common
(gdb) set architecture s390:31-bit
to cause no issues with the `show disassembler-options' and `set
disassembler-options' commands. A test case for the MIPS target has
also been provided, covering the default settings with ABI overrides as
well as disassembler option overrides.

Our interpretation of the layout of floating-point general registers
(FGRs) in o32 MIPS/Linux core files is different from how the kernel
makes them, affecting the CP0 Status.FR=0 aka FP32 mode (we don't
currently support the CP0 Status.FR=1 aka FP64 mode with the o32 ABI).
In the FP32 mode pairs of consecutive even/odd-numbered 32-bit registers
are placed together as 64-bit values in even-indexed 64-bit slots
corresponding to the even index, leaving the odd-indexed 64-bit slots
unused. These 64-bit values are stored according to the endianness in
effect, which is how the MIPS II SDC1 instruction would store them.
It has always been like that with the Linux kernel for MIPS II and
higher ISA processors, which are the vast majority ever supported, as it
is indeed SDC1 that the kernel uses to store FGRs in a floating-point
context.
With MIPS I processors, which lack the SDC1 instruction, a layout that
we expect used to be used long ago, but it was corrected for consistency
with newer processors back in 2002, with `linux-mips.org' (LMO) commit
42533948caac ("Major pile of FP emulator changes."), the fix corrected
with LMO commit 849fa7a50dff ("R3k FPU ptrace() handling fixes."), and
then broken and fixed over and over again, until last time fixed with
commit 80cbfad79096 ("MIPS: Correct MIPS I FP context layout").
Consequently the values we see in FP32 core files or produce with the
`gcore' command are different from those obtained from the same FP
context of a live process, e.g. with a big-endian configuration these
live values:

Notice how values from odd-numbered registers are shown in corresponding
even-numbered registers and how dummy 0x7ff80000 NaN values, which the
kernel places in unused slots, are reported in odd-numbered registers.
Correct our intepretation then, to match the kernel's. As it happens
the o32 FGR core file representation matches that used by the `ptrace'
PTRACE_GETFPREGS request, which means our 64-bit handlers can be readily
used, as they already correctly handle the differences between o32 FP32
mode vs n32/n64 representations.
Adjust comments accordingly throughout, in particular remove a reference
to the r3000/tx39 MIPS I processor peculiarity, long irrelevant.
Add a test case to verify correctness. Avoid GCC bugs and limitations
in the test case where possible; the test case still fails to build with
GCC 8 and the o32 FP64 mode (i.e. with `-mips32r2 -mfp64' options)
giving:
mips-fpregset-core.c: In function 'main':
mips-fpregset-core.c:66:3: error: inconsistent operand constraints in an 'asm'
asm (
^~~
(GCC PR target/85909), but that is not a concern for us as yet, because
as noted above we do not currently support the o32 FP64 mode anyway.

For GNU/Linux on x86-64, if the target is using the xsave format for
passing the floating-point information from the inferior then there
currently exists a bug relating to the x87 control registers, and the
mxcsr register.
The xsave format allows different floating-point features to be lazily
enabled, a bit in the xsave format tells GDB which floating-point
features have been enabled, and which have not.
Currently in GDB, when reading the floating point state, we check the
xsave bit flags, if the feature is enabled then we read the feature
from the xsave buffer, and if the feature is not enabled, then we
supply the default value from within GDB.
Within GDB, when writing the floating point state, we first fetch the
xsave state from the target and then, for any feature that is not yet
enabled, we write the default values into the xsave buffer. Next we
compare the regcache value with the value in the xsave buffer, and, if
the value has changed we update the value in the xsave buffer, and
mark the feature enabled in the xsave bit flags.
The problem then, is that the x87 control registers were not following
this pattern. We assumed that these registers were always written out
by the kernel, and we always wrote them out to the xsave buffer (but
didn't enabled the feature). The result of this is that if the kernel
had not yet enabled the x87 feature then within GDB we would see
random values for the x87 floating point control registers, and if the
user tried to modify one of these register, that modification would be
lost.
Finally, the mxcsr register was also broken in the same way as the x87
control registers. The added complexity with this case is that the
mxcsr register is part of both the avx and sse floating point feature
set. When reading or writing this register we need to check that at
least one of these features is enabled.
This bug was present in native GDB, and within gdbserver. Both are
fixed with this commit.

When a 64-bits (x86-64) gdbarch is created, it is first born as a
32-bits gdbarch in i386_gdbarch_init. The call gdbarch_init_osabi will
call the handler register for the selected (arch, osabi) pair, such as
amd64_linux_init_abi. The various amd64 handlers call amd64_init_abi,
which turns the gdbarch into a 64-bits one.
When selecting the i386:x86-64 architecture with no osabi, no such
handler is ever called, so the gdbarch stays (wrongfully) a 32-bits one.
My first idea was to manually call amd64_init_abi & al in
i386_gdbarch_init when the osabi is GDB_OSABI_NONE. However, this
doesn't work in a build of GDB where i386 is included as a target but
not amd64. My next option (implemented in this patch), is to allow
registering handlers for GDB_OSABI_NONE. I added two such handlers in
amd64-tdep.c, so now it works the same as for the "normal" osabis. It
required re-ordering things in gdbarch_init_osabi to allow running
handlers for GDB_OSABI_NONE.
Without this patch applied (but with the previous one*) :
(gdb) set osabi none
(gdb) set architecture i386:x86-64
The target architecture is assumed to be i386:x86-64
(gdb) p sizeof(void*)
$1 = 4
and now:
(gdb) set osabi none
(gdb) set architecture i386:x86-64
The target architecture is assumed to be i386:x86-64
(gdb) p sizeof(void*)
$1 = 8
* Before the previous patch, which fixed "set osabi none", this bug was
hidden because we didn't actually try to generate a gdbarch for no
osabi, it would always fall back on Linux. Generating the gdbarch for
amd64/linux did work.

This test starts up and confirms that $xmm0 has the value 0, it then
modifies $xmm0 (in the inferior) and confirms that the new value can
be read (in GDB).
On some machines I was noticing that this test would occasionally
fail, and on investigation I believe that the reason for this is that
the test is linked as a dynamically linked executable and makes use of
the system libraries during startup. The reason that this causes
problems is that both the runtime linker and the startup code run
before main can, and do (on at least some platforms) make use of the
XMM registers.
In this commit I modify the test program slightly to allow it to be
linked statically, without using the startup libraries. Now by the
time GDB reaches the symbol main we have only executed one 'nop'
instruction, and the XMM registers should all have the value 0. I've
extended the test script to confirm that $xmm0 to $xmm15 are all
initially 0, and I also check that at the point after $xmm0 has been
modified, all the other XMM registers ($xmm1 to $xmm15) are still 0.
The test program is still linked against libc in order that we can
call the exit function, however, we now call _exit rather than exit in
order to avoid all of the usual cleanup that exit does. This clean up
tries to tear down things that are usually setup during the startup
code, but now this isn't called calling exit will just result in a
crash.
gdb/testsuite/ChangeLog:
* gdb.arch/amd64-disp-step-avx.S: Add '_start' label.
(done): Call '_exit' not 'exit' to avoid atexit handlers.
* gdb.arch/amd64-disp-step-avx.exp: Pass -static, and
-nostartfiles when compiling the test. Confirm that all registers
xmm0 to xmm15 are initially 0, and that xmm1 to xmm15 are 0 after.
A small number of tests incorrectly tried to pass -Wa,-g through to
GCC as an extra compile time flag, either to gdb_compile or
prepare_for_testing.
The problem is that the syntax used for passing the flags was
incorrect, and as a result these extra flags were being ignored.
Luckily, the 'debug' flag was being passed in each case anyway, which
means that the '-g' flag would already be added.
Given that all these tests pass 'debug', and the invalid flag has been
ignored for some time, I'm just removing the flags in this commit.
I've also changed the tests from using gdb_compile to
prepare_for_testing, which allows some extra code to be removed from a
couple of tests scripts.
There should be no change in the test results after this commit.
