* remote-mips.c (mips_xfer_memory): Adjust as to_xfer_partial

(mips_xfer_partial): New function.
(_initialize_remote_mips): Don't install a deprecated_xfer_memory
hook. Install a to_xfer_partial hook.
Consider the following declarations in Ada...
type Item is range -32 .. 31;
for Item'Size use 6;
type Table is array (Natural range 0 .. 4) of Item;
pragma Pack (Table);
... which declare a packed array whose elements are 6 bits long.
The debugger currently does not notice that the array is packed,
and thus prints values of this type incorrectly. This can be seen
in the "ptype" output:
(gdb) ptype table
type = array (0 .. 4) of foo.item
Normally, the debugger should print:
(gdb) ptype table
type = array (0 .. 4) of foo.item <packed: 6-bit elements>
The debugging information for this array looks like this:
.uleb128 0xf # (DIE (0x15c) DW_TAG_array_type)
.long .LASF9 # DW_AT_name: "pck__table"
.byte 0x6 # DW_AT_bit_stride
.long 0x1a9 # DW_AT_type
.uleb128 0x10 # (DIE (0x16a) DW_TAG_subrange_type)
.long 0x3b # DW_AT_type
.byte 0 # DW_AT_lower_bound
.byte 0x4 # DW_AT_upper_bound
.byte 0 # end of children of DIE 0x15c
The interesting part is the DW_AT_bit_stride attribute, which tells
the size of the array elements is 6 bits, rather than the normal
element type's size.
This patch adds support for this attribute by first creating
gdbtypes.c::create_array_type_with_stride, which is an enhanced
version of create_array_type taking an extra parameter as the stride.
The old create_array_type can then be re-implemented very simply
by calling the new create_array_type_with_stride.
We can then use this new function from dwarf2read, to create
arrays with or without stride.
gdb/ChangeLog:
* gdbtypes.h (create_array_type_with_stride): Add declaration.
* gdbtypes.c (create_array_type_with_stride): New function,
renaming create_array_type, but with an added parameter
called "bit_stride".
(create_array_type): Re-implement using
create_array_type_with_stride.
* dwarf2read.c (read_array_type): Add support for DW_AT_byte_stride
and DW_AT_bit_stride attributes.
gdb/testsuite/ChangeLog:
* gdb.dwarf2/arr-stride.c: New file.
* gdb.dwarf2/arr-stride.exp: New file.
The test, relying purely on generating an assembly file, only
verifies the type description of our array. But I was also
able to verify manually that the debugger print values of these
types correctly as well (which was not the case prior to this
patch).
With the test changed as in the patch, against current mainline, we get:

(gdb) PASS: gdb.ada/tasks.exp: info tasks after hitting breakpoint
The breakpoint that caused a stop is breakpoint 3, but GDB end up
reporting (and running breakpoint commands of) "Breakpoint 2" instead.
The issue is that the bpstat_check_breakpoint_conditions logic of
"wrong thread" is missing the "wrong task" check. This is usually
harmless, because the thread hop code in infrun.c code that handles
wrong-task-hitting-breakpoint does check for task-specific breakpoints
(within breakpoint_thread_match):
/* Check if a regular breakpoint has been hit before checking
for a potential single step breakpoint. Otherwise, GDB will
not see this breakpoint hit when stepping onto breakpoints. */
if (regular_breakpoint_inserted_here_p (aspace, stop_pc))
{
if (!breakpoint_thread_match (aspace, stop_pc, ecs->ptid))
thread_hop_needed = 1;
}
IOW, usually, when one only has a task specific breakpoint at a given
address, things work correctly. Put another task-specific or
non-task-specific breakpoint there, and things break.
A patch that eliminates the special thread hop code in infrun.c is
what exposed this, as after that GDB solely relies on
bpstat_check_breakpoint_conditions to know whether the right or wrong
task hit a breakpoint. IOW, given the latent bug, Ada task-specific
breakpoints become non-task-specific, and that is caught by the
testsuite, as:
break break_me task 3

[description of this patch and ChangeLog entry by Joel Brobecker]
The recent implementation was questionable, and if it worked, it was
only by chance because the requested length is large enough that only
one read was sufficient. Note that the implementation before that
also made that assumption, in the form of only handling
TARGET_OBJECT_UNWIND_TABLE xfer requests when offset was zero.

* ia64-linux-nat.c (ia64_linux_xfer_partial): Reimplement
handling of object == TARGET_OBJECT_UNWIND_TABLE.

This patch changes rl78-tdep.c so that a 16-bit type is used for
register pairs instead of a pointer type as was previously the case.
This will cause these register pairs to be displayed as integers
instead of as a data address with a 0xf0000 ORed in.
E.g. registers ax, bc, de, and hl might now be displayed like this:
(gdb) info registers ax bc de hl
ax 0x6 6
bc 0x0 0
de 0x10c3 4291
hl 0x108d 423
Whereas, before, they were displayed as follows:
(gdb) info registers ax bc de hl
ax 0xf0006 0xf0006
bc 0xf0000 0xf0000
de 0xf10c3 0xf10c3
hl 0xf108d 0xf108d
These pairs are 16 bit quantities and should be displayed as such.
This change also affects the way that the banked register pairs are
displayed. Within GDB, the banked register pairs are named bank0_rp0,
bank0_rp1, .., bank3_rp2, bank3_rp3.
However, these register pairs need to be used as addresses in DWARF
expressions. I have added 16 pseudo registers corresponding to banked
register pairs. These new pseudo registers are all hidden from the
user and have a pointer type. Values from these registers are
intended to be used in DWARF expressions. Therefore,
rl78_dwarf_reg_to_regnum() has been adjusted to return these new
pseudo register numbers.
I had a much simpler patch which only changed the types, but it showed
a number of regressions due to integer values from the banked register
pairs being used as part of an address expression. This current patch
shows no regressions and now displays values of register pairs
correctly.

The regression was introduced by the to_xfer_partial transition
to return a status enum. procfs_xfer_partial was updated but
not the case where object is TARGET_OBJECT_MEMORY. As result,
procfs_xfer_partial was returning the length xfered rather than
the status, and the xfered buffer was left uninitialized.

In the original code, len is returned, which could be 0, but after that
commit, only TARGET_XFER_OK is returned, which is wrong. If len is 0,
TARGET_XFER_EOF should be returned. (it is 0 in enum

6680 ? S 0:00 \_ (sd-pam)
and GDB "info os processes" crashes on it as /proc/6680/stat contains:
6680 ((sd-pam)) S 6678 6678 6678 0 -1 1077961024 33 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 20 0 1 0 18568 73768960 120 18446744073709551615 1 1
0 0 0 0 0 4096 0 18446744073709551615 0 0 17 6 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0
and GDB fails to find the proper end of the process name "((sd-pam))".
Therefore it reads core number off-by-one (it reads 17 instead of 6) and
overruns the array.
(1) Make the process name parsing more foolproof.
(2) Do not trust the parsed number from /proc/PID/stat and verify it against
the array size.
I noticed that 'ps' gets this right, so I've peeked at its
sources, and it just looks for the first ')' starting at
the end.
dc072aced7:proc/readproc.c
Look for stat2proc.
Given ps does that, I believe the kernel won't ever be changed
in a way that would break it. So it sounds like could do strrchr
from the end of stat just as well without worry, which is simpler.

The patch "return target_xfer_status in to_xfer_partial" caused a
regression in various s390(x) test cases, because memory_xfer_partial
filled only the first byte of the read buffer from a breakpoint shadow:
https://sourceware.org/ml/gdb-patches/2014-01/msg01071.html
This patch fixes the regression.
I realized that the name of this test only made sense when considering
the old (never committed) implementation of the fix that came along
with the test originally, that forced a schedlock while a step-resume
(to get over the signal handler) was inserted. The final solution
that went into the tree does not force that locking.
So this renames it to something more descriptive.

Now that I have already submitted and pushed the patch to split
i386_stap_parse_special_token into two smaller functions, it is indeed
simpler to understand this patch.
It occurs because, on x86, triplet displacement operands are allowed
(like "-4+8-20(%rbp)"), and the current parser for this expression is
buggy. It does not correctly extract the register name from the
expression, which leads to incorrect evaluation. The parser was also
being very "generous" with the expression, so I included a few more
checks to ensure that we're indeed dealing with a triplet displacement
operand.
This patch also includes testcases for the two different kind of
expressions that can be encountered on x86: the triplet displacement
(explained above) and the three-argument displacement (as in
"(%rbx,%ebx,-8)"). The tests are obviously arch-dependent and are
placed under gdb.arch/.

The AIX linker pointed out that gdb had multiple definitions of the
various *_varobj_ops objects. This patch fixes the problem by marking
the declarations as "extern" in varobj.h. Tested by rebuilding on
x86-64 Fedora 18 and on AIX.
