This adds a test that exposes several problems fixed by earlier
patches:
#1 - Buffer overrun when host/target formats match, but sizes don't.
https://sourceware.org/ml/gdb-patches/2016-03/msg00125.html#2 - Missing handling for FR-V FR300.
https://sourceware.org/ml/gdb-patches/2016-03/msg00117.html#3 - BFD architectures with spaces in their names (v850).
https://sourceware.org/ml/binutils/2016-03/msg00108.html#4 - The OS ABI names with spaces issue.
https://sourceware.org/ml/gdb-patches/2016-03/msg00116.html#5 - Bogus HP/PA long double format.
https://sourceware.org/ml/gdb-patches/2016-03/msg00122.html#6 - Cris big endian internal error.
https://sourceware.org/ml/gdb-patches/2016-03/msg00126.html#7 - Several PowerPC bfd archs/machines not handled by gdb.
https://sourceware.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=19797
And hopefully helps catch others in the future.
This started out as a test that simply did,
gdb -ex "print 1.0L"
to exercise #1 above.
Then to cover both 32-bit target / 64-bit host and the converse, I
thought of having the testcase print the floats twice, once with the
architecture set to "i386" and then to "i386:x86-64". This way it
wouldn't matter whether gdb was built as 32-bit or a 64-bit program.
Then I thought that other archs might have similar host/target
floatformat conversion issues as well. Instead of hardcoding some
architectures in the test file, I thought we could just iterate over
all bfd architectures and OS ABIs supported by the gdb build being
tested. This is what then exposed all the other problems listed
above...
With an --enable-targets=all, this exercises over 14 thousand
combinations. If left in a single test file, it all consistenly runs
in under a minute on my machine (An Intel i7-4810MQ @ 2.8 MHZ running
Fedora 23). Split in 8 chunks, as in this commit, it runs in around
25 seconds, with make -j8.
To avoid flooding the gdb.sum file, it avoids calling "pass" on each
tested combination/iteration. I'm explicitly not implementing that by
passing an empty message to gdb_test / gdb_test_multiple, because I
still want a FAIL to be logged in gdb.sum. So instead this puts the
internal passes in the gdb.log file, only, prefixed "IPASS:", for
internal pass. TBC, if some iteration fails, it'll still show up as
FAIL in gdb.sum. If this is an approach that takes on, I can see us
extending the common bits to support it for all testcases.

gdb.perf/skip-prologue.exp is intended to measure the performance of
skipping prologue with prologue analysis by setting breakpoints.
However, if program is compiled with debug info, GDB is smart to
skip prologue by line table from debug info, so prologue analysis
is not exercised at all.
This patch adds a parameter COMPILE to specify compiling with
debug information, otherwise, it is compiled without debug
information.

I got a report of a gdb crash for vle and further investigation showed an
attempt to disassemble an invalid memory range. I tracked the crash down
to the code in get_powerpc_dialect, where we fail to make sure we have a
valid section pointer before dereferencing it.
There is no such problem for rs6000-based disassembling.

2016-12-08 Luis Machado <lgustavo@codesourcery.com>
* ppc-dis.c (get_powerpc_dialect): Check NULL info->section.

Follow-up to commit 14f6890677.
global_thread_id_to_ptid expects global thread numbers, which are nowadays only
used in MI, never presented to the user in the CLI. Since this is a CLI
command, it should accept the inferior-qualified format instead.
gdb/
* gnu-nat.c (set_sig_thread_cmd): Use parse_thread_id instead of
global_thread_id_to_ptid.
..., so handle these in "C" mode still:
gdb/
* config/i386/i386gnu.mh (%_S.o %_U.o): Add "-x c" to
"COMPILE.post".
* gnu-nat.c: #include Mach/Hurd headers before all others. Wrap
Mach/Hurd headers and MIG stubs' prototypes in 'extern "C"'.
* i386-gnu-nat.c: Likewise.
GNU/Hurd uses its own "typedef enum __error_t_codes error_t;"
([glibc]/sysdeps/mach/hurd/bits/errno.h), contrary to the default
"typedef int error_t;" ([glibc]/stdlib/errno.h).
The Mach/Hurd RPCs return kern_return_t values, for which, upon assigning them
to an error_t variable, GCC in C++ mode tells us "error: invalid conversion
from 'kern_return_t {aka int}' to 'error_t {aka __error_t_codes}'". Instead of
casting all these RPC return values to "error_t", just use "kern_return_t"
variables:

* i386-gnu-nat.c (fetch_fpregs, store_fpregs, i386_gnu_dr_get)

... by a bit of code refactoring:
gdb/
* gnu-nat.c (set_task_pause_cmd, set_signals_cmd)
(set_exceptions_cmd): Add variants taking an "int arg" instead of
a "char *". Make the "char *" variants use the former.
(set_noninvasive_cmd): Also use the "int arg" variants.
C++ doesn't do implicit type conversions from "void *", so we have to...
gdb/
* i386-gnu-nat.c (i386_gnu_dr_set_control_one)

consistently.
Adds a new option, defaulting to off, that allows a group of stubs to
serve multiple output sections. Prior to this patch powerpc gold
allowed this unconditionally, which is a little unsafe with clever
code that discards/reuses sections at runtime.

to constructor. Sort start_ var later. Comment State.
(Stub_control::can_add_to_stub_group): Heed multi_os_.
(Target_powerpc::group_sections): Update.
Gold attaches stubs to an existing section in contrast to ld.bfd which
inserts a new section for stubs. If we want stubs before branches,
then the stubs must be added to the previous section. Adding to the
previous section is a disaster if there is a large gap between the
previous section and the group.

This patch adds asserts where the value's lval must be lval_register.
This triggers an error in frame_register_unwind because VALUE_REGNUM
is used but value's lval is not lval_register.
This also reveals a design issue in frame_register_unwind, that is
arguments addrp and realnump are mutually exclusive, we either use
addrp (for lval_memory), or use realnump (for lval_register). This
can be done in a separate patch.
