mi-cmd-env.c is using the whole gdb_environ machinery in order to
access just one variable, which can be easily replaced by a simple
call to getenv. This patch does that, and doesn't cause regressions.
gdb/ChangeLog:

* mi/mi-cm-env.c (_initialize_mi_cmd_env): Use getenv instead of
gdb_environ to access an environment variable.
On noMMU platforms, the following code gets compiled:
child_stack = xmalloc (STACK_SIZE * 4);
Where child_stack is a gdb_byte*, and xmalloc() returns a void*. While
the lack of cast is valid in C, it is not in C++, causing the
following build failure:
../nat/linux-ptrace.c: In function 'int linux_fork_to_function(gdb_byte*, int (*)(void*))':
../nat/linux-ptrace.c:273:29: error: invalid conversion from 'void*' to 'gdb_byte* {aka unsigned char*}' [-fpermissive]
child_stack = xmalloc (STACK_SIZE * 4);
Therefore, this commit adds the appropriate cast.
gdb/ChangeLog:
* nat/linux-ptrace.c (linux_fork_to_function): Add cast to
gdb_byte*.

clang complains that the fmt passed to vwarning in trace_start_error is
not a literal. This looks like a fair warning, which can be removed by
adding ATTRIBUTE_PRINTF to the declaration of trace_start_error.

AFAIK, the register keyword is not relevant today, and clang complains
about it:
/home/emaisin/src/binutils-gdb/gdb/gdbserver/linux-low.c:5873:3: error: 'register' storage class specifier is deprecated and incompatible with C++1z
[-Werror,-Wdeprecated-register]
register PTRACE_XFER_TYPE *buffer;
^~~~~~~~~
I think we can safely remove it.
gdb/gdbserver/ChangeLog:
* linux-low.c (linux_read_memory, linux_write_memory): Remove
usage of "register" keyword.
clang complains that for some types, we use both the class and struct
keywords in different places. It's not really a problem, so I think we
can safely turn this warning off.
gdb/ChangeLog:
* configure: Re-generate.
* warning.m4 (build_warnings): Add -Wno-mismatched-tags.
gdb/gdbserver/ChangeLog:
* configure: Re-generate.
In warning.m4, we pass all the warning flags one by one to the compiler
to test if they are supported by this particular compiler. If the
compiler exits with an error, we conclude that this warning flag is not
supported and exclude it. This allows us to use warning flags without
having to worry about which versions of which compilers support each
flag.
clang, by default, only emits a warning if an unknown flag is passed:
warning: unknown warning option '-Wfoo' [-Wunknown-warning-option]
The result is that we think that all the warning flags we use are
supported by clang (they are not), and the compilation fails later when
building with -Werror, since the aforementioned warning becomes an
error. The fix is to also pass -Werror when probing for supported
flags, then we'll correctly get an error when using an unknown warning,
and we'll exclude it:
error: unknown warning option '-Wfoo' [-Werror,-Wunknown-warning-option]
I am not sure why there is a change in a random comment in
gdbserver/configure, but I suppose it's a leftfover from a previous
patch, so I included it.
gdb/ChangeLog:
* configure: Re-generate.
* warning.m4: Pass -Werror to compiler when checking for
supported warning flags.
gdb/gdbserver/ChangeLog:
* configure: Re-generate.
Because we are compiling .c files containing C++ code, clang++ complains
with:
clang: error: treating 'c' input as 'c++' when in C++ mode, this behavior is deprecated
If renaming all the source files to .cpp is out of the question, an
alternative is to pass "-x c++" to convince the compiler that we are
really compiling C++. It works fine with GCC too.
gdb/ChangeLog:
* Makefile.in (COMPILE.pre): Add "-x c++".

This patch converts functions extract_{unsigned,signed}_integer
to a function template extract_integer, which has two instantiations. It
also does the similar changes to store__{unsigned,signed}_integer,
regcache::raw_read_{unsigned,signed}, regcache::raw_write_{unsigned,signed},
regcache::cooked_read_{unsigned,signed},
regcache::cooked_write_{unsigned,signed}.
This patch was posted here
https://sourceware.org/ml/gdb-patches/2017-05/msg00492.html but the
problem was fixed in a different way. However, I think the patch is still
useful to shorten the code.

Enforce CPU model for disassembler via its options, if it was specified in XML
target description, otherwise use default method of determining CPU implemented
in disassembler - scanning ELF private header. The latter requires
disassemble_info->section to be properly initialized. To make sure that
info->section is set in all cases this patch partially reverts [1] for ARC: it
reinstates arc_delayed_print_insn as a "print_insn" function for ARC, but
now this function only sets disassemble_info->section and then calls
default_print_insn to do the rest of the job.
Support for CPU in disassembler options for ARC has been added in [2].

As discussed at the PR, this patch tries to avoid COPY relocation generation

copy relocations. This is for adjust_dynamic_symbol hook to be able to get all
symbol reference information. Should one symbol is referenced by more than one
relocations, if there is any of them needs copy relocation then linker should
generate it.

[PATCH 0/6] Unify the disassembler selection in gdb and objdump
https://sourceware.org/ml/binutils/2017-05/msg00192.html
that is, opcodes is able to select the right disassembler, so gdb
doesn't have to select them. Instead, gdb can just use
default_print_insn. As a result, these print_insn_XXX are not used
out of opcodes, so this patch also moves their declarations from

GDB doesn't use any print_insn_XXX directly any more.

The new test var-access.exp causes FAILs on i686. This is because the
test chooses the wrong name for DWARF register number 1: It uses
"edx" (which corresponds to DWARF register number 2), but should have used
"ecx" instead.
Also, the current logic in var-access.exp does not correctly distinguish
between a 64-bit and a 32-bit program on an x86-64 target. It uses the
64-bit register names for both.
These problems are fixed. In order to address the latter, the convenience
macros is_*_target are exploited where appropriate.

In some cases we've been replacing heap-allocated gdb_byte buffers
managed with xmalloc/make_cleanup(xfree) with gdb::vector<gdb_byte>.
That usually pessimizes the code a little bit because std::vector
value-initializes elements (which for gdb_byte means
zero-initialization), while if you're creating a temporary buffer,
you're most certaintly going to fill it in with some data. An
alternative is to use
unique_ptr<gdb_byte[]> buf (new gdb_byte[size]);
but it looks like that's not very popular.
Recently, a use of obstacks in dwarf2read.c was replaced with
std::vector<gdb_byte> and that as well introduced a pessimization for
always memsetting the buffer when it's garanteed that the zeros will
be overwritten immediately. (see dwarf2read.c change in this patch to
find it.)
So here's a different take at addressing this issue "by design":
#1 - Introduce default_init_allocator<T>
I.e., a custom allocator that does default construction using default
initialization, meaning, no more zero initialization. That's the
default_init_allocation<T> class added in this patch.
See "Notes" at
<http://en.cppreference.com/w/cpp/container/vector/resize>.
#2 - Introduce def_vector<T>
I.e., a convenience typedef, because typing the allocator is annoying:
using def_vector<T> = std::vector<T, gdb::default_init_allocator<T>>;
#3 - Introduce byte_vector
Because gdb_byte vectors will be the common thing, add a convenience
"byte_vector" typedef:
using byte_vector = def_vector<gdb_byte>;
which is really the same as:
std::vector<gdb_byte, gdb::default_init_allocator<gdb_byte>>;
The intent then is to make "gdb::byte_vector" be the go-to for dynamic
byte buffers. So the less friction, the better.
#4 - Adjust current code to use it.
To set the example going forward. Replace std::vector uses and also
unique_ptr<byte[]> uses.
One nice thing is that with this allocator, for changes like these:
-std::unique_ptr<byte[]> buf (new gdb_byte[some_size]);
+gdb::byte_vector buf (some_size);
fill_with_data (buf.data (), buf.size ());
the generated code is the same as before. I.e., the compiler
de-structures the vector and gets rid of the unused "reserved vs size"
related fields.
The other nice thing is that it's easier to write
gdb::byte_vector buf (size);
than
std::unique_ptr<gdb_byte[]> buf (new gdb_byte[size]);
or even (C++14):
auto buf = std::make_unique<gdb_byte[]> (size); // zero-initializes...
#5 - Suggest s/std::vector<gdb_byte>/gdb::byte_vector/ going forward.
Note that this commit actually fixes a couple of bugs where the current
code is incorrectly using "std::vector::reserve(new_size)" and then
accessing the vector's internal buffer beyond the vector's size: see
dwarf2loc.c and charset.c. That's undefined behavior and may trigger
debug mode assertion failures. With default_init_allocator,
"resize()" behaves like "reserve()" performance wise, in that it
leaves new elements with unspecified values, but, it does that safely
without triggering undefined behavior when you access those values.
