With this patch, we e.g. get:
[Switching to task 2 "task_list(1)"]
[Current task is 2 "task_list(1)"]
instead of
[Switching to task 2]
[Current task is 2]
The logic to produce the taskno optionally followed
by the task name has been factorized in the task_to_str function.
Task names are output between double quotes in the new messages,
similarly to what GDB does for thread names.
However, no quotes are put around task names in 'info tasks' Name column.
This was discussed with Tom, that preferred no quotes there, while I
was more in favour of visual consistency.
I discussed with a few more users, which led to (exactly) 50% preferring
quotes and 50% preferring no quotes :).
To arrive to the decision to remove the quotes, the following "killing args"
were used:
* To have quotes or to not have quotes, that is the question; yes
but not *THE* question :).
* If there is not a clear majority that prefers quotes, better to
not disturb the existing user basis for a (somewhat) irrelevant
aspect.
* The opinion of the reviewer has more weight.
So, compared to the previous version, this version remotes the quotes
in 'info tasks'.
It improves the alignement of 'info tasks' output.
With this patch, we get:
(gdb) info task
ID TID P-ID Pri State Name
* 1 555555759030 48 Runnable main_task
2 555555759e30 1 48 Selective Wait mit
(gdb)
instead of
(gdb) info task
ID TID P-ID Pri State Name
* 1 555555759030 48 Runnable main_task
2 555555759e30 1 48 Selective Wait mit
(gdb)
(e.g. the first one properly shows parent and priority under the
correct header).
This is version 4 of the 'task name' patch.
Compared to version 3, the changes are:
output task names between quotes but not in 'info tasks'

For some reason, commit 906e58cab5 2008-05-15 excluded input
statements with BFD_LINKER_CREATED BFDs from being printed to map
files. This isn't ideal since it loses claimed plugin BFDs.
* ldlang.c (print_input_statement): Do not exclude linker created
BFDs.
This fixes a problem with commit 128bf1fe60, a patch I made
2019-08-06. Apparently it is possible to trigger the assertion I
added during an LTO bootstrap, something I haven't reproduced.
However, I did find a case triggered by an odd linker script feature
that allows a file to be loaded from the script without specifying
that file on the command line. Regarding input sections:
"When you use a file name which is not an archive:file specifier
and does not contain any wild card characters, the linker will
first see if you also specified the file name on the linker command
line or in an INPUT command. If you did not, the linker will
attempt to open the file as an input file, as though it appeared on
the command line."
So putting
.foo : { foo.a(*) }
into a script supposedly extracts foo.a into .foo. Except it doesn't,
since this feature is meant for object files only. Well anyway,
assuming --whole-archive was given on the command line, foo.a contains
a -flto object and no other objects involved were -flto then we'll hit
the assert due to files added like foo.a here *not* having their input
statement put on the general statement list. Why these are not put on
the statement list isn't obvious but it has been that way since commit
193c5f93a1 in 1994.
PR 24981
* ldlang.c (lang_process): Remove assertion. Comment.
It's been a long-standing nuisance that gdb reported unaligned accesses
on Solaris/SPARC as SIGSEGV, contrary to the shells and truss which
correctly report SIGBUS instead.
I could trace this down to the fault handling code in procfs.c
(procfs_target::wait): when pr_why is set to PR_FAULTED, the current
code sets the signal based on the fault number. For one, the code gets
this wrong for FLTACCESS (the unaligned access case) where it uses
SIGSEGV. What's worse, it's completely unnecessary to make up the
signal number inside gdb. Instead, it should just take what procfs
reports to avoid mismatches, which is what this patch does. I've
completely removed the explicit handling of the various fault codes: for
one, the list has already been incomplete, lacking FLTCPCOVF which
existed since at least Solaris 8. Besides, there's no reason to error
out on unknown fault codes: either the fault causes a signal which can
then be reported from procfs, or it doesn't (as for FLTPAGE) and no
reporting is necessary.
Tested on sparcv9-sun-solaris2.11 and x86_64-pc-solaris2.11. Also
spot-checked manually for a couple of cases (unaligned access, division
by 0, NULL pointer dereference).
* procfs.c (procfs_target::wait) <PR_FAULTED>: Get signal from
prstatus.pr_lwp.pr_info instead of making it up.
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

The code used to have undefined behaviour when template parameter is float and

An internal Ada test case showed that the .debug_names code does not
compute the same list of file names as the partial symbol reader. In
particular, the partial symbol reader uses the DW_AT_name of the CU:
/* Allocate a new partial symbol table structure. */
filename = dwarf2_string_attr (comp_unit_die, DW_AT_name, cu);
if (filename == NULL)
filename = "";
pst = create_partial_symtab (per_cu, filename);

Valgrind reports the below leak.
Make the variable progname_copy static, so that Valgrind continues
to find a pointer to the memory given to Python.
Note that the comment in do_start_initialization and the Python documentation
indicates that the progname given to Py_SetProgramName cannot be freed.
However, in Python 3.7.4, Py_SetProgramName does:
void
Py_SetProgramName(const wchar_t *program_name)
{
...
PyMem_RawFree(_Py_path_config.program_name);
_Py_path_config.program_name = _PyMem_RawWcsdup(program_name);
So, it looks like 3.7.4 Python duplicates its argument, which explains
the leak found by Valgrind.
It looks better to respect the doc and not have GDB freeing the string
given to Py_SetProgramName, and avoid the leak error by declaring
the progname_copy static.
This will work with Python versions that really use this string without
duplicating it, and avoids a leak report for Python version that duplicates
it.

In gdb.base/ui-redirect.exp, the "save breakpoint" command is used to write
the current breakpoints to a file, but the actual output is not verified.
Consequently, the test has regressed in that the "print 1" command associated
with a breakpoint on main is removed by a subsequent runto_main, which first
deletes all breakpoints:
...
(gdb) break main
Breakpoint 1 at 0x4004d7: file start.c, line 34.
(gdb) commands
Type commands for breakpoint(s) 1, one per line.
End with a line saying just "end".
> PASS: gdb.base/ui-redirect.exp: commands
print 1
> PASS: gdb.base/ui-redirect.exp: print 1
end
(gdb) PASS: gdb.base/ui-redirect.exp: end
delete breakpoints
Delete all breakpoints? (y or n) y
...
and consequently the "save breakpoint" output is missing the breakpoint
command for main:
...
break main
- commands
- print 1
- end
break foo
break bar
...
Fix this by replacing "gdb_breakpoint main" with runto_main, and verifying the
"save breakpoints" output.
Tested on x86_64-linux.

PC-relative relocs typically use the addend in adjusting what they are
relative to. For example:
bcl 20,31,1f
1: mflr 12
addi 12,12,xxx-1b
generates "R_PPC64_REL16 xxx+0x4" for the addi (when little-endian).
The addend reflects the fact that you want the offset relative to the
previous insn not the current one in this case.
So the question is, will we ever want to do something like that for an
instruction using R_PPC64_GOT_PCREL34? I thought so at the time I
first implemented support in ld but at the time I think the hardware
was possibly going to support pcrel+offset+reg addressing. In which
case you might want something like:
load_big_offset_into_r2
pld 3,sym-big_offset@got@pcrel(2)
which would be a way of supporting more than 8G offsets from code to
the GOT. We could do the same with
load_big_offset_into_r2
pla 9,sym-big_offset@got@pcrel
ldx 3,9,2
However, this is really a poor version of TOC-pointer relative code.
So let's go with an addend on R_PPC64_GOT_PCREL34 meaning that
sym+addend should be put in a GOT entry, and the relocation calculate
the pc-relative offset to that GOT entry.
Note that this is an extension to the ABI, which says (by the
expression given for GOT relocs) that non-zero addends on GOT and PLT
relocs are ignored. This is true for all GOT/PLT relocs, not just the
pcrel ones.
* elf64-ppc.c (ppc64_elf_check_relocs): Interpret an addend in
GOT_PCREL and PLT_PCREL relocs as affecting the value stored
in the GOT/PLT entry rather than affecting the offset to that
GOI/PLT entry.
(ppc64_elf_edit_toc, ppc64_elf_relocate_section): Likewise.
The loads and stores handled in the second instruction of a sequence
marked by R_PPC64_PCREL_OPT may be a prefix instruction. For example:
pld ra,symbol@got@pcrel
0:
pld rt,off(ra)
.reloc 0b-8,R_PPC64_PCREL_OPT,(.-8)-(0b-8)
can be optimised to
pld rt,symbol+off@pcrel
pnop
* elf64-ppc.c (xlate_pcrel_opt): Handle prefix loads and stores
