The rot agent expression bytecode rotates the three items on the top of
the stack. It is not clear which way the rotation is. However, the
documentation currently shows this as the effect of the instructions:
a b c => c b a
which doesn't make sense, since the value b doesn't move. The two
valid possibilities I see are
a b c => b c a
a b c => c a b
depending on which way you rotate.
When looking at the gdbserver code, the top of the stack becomes the
third item, and the next-to-top item becomes the top. So the second
form would be the right one, since in this notation the top of the stack
is the rightmost element:
a b c => c a b
I adjusted the symbolic description and added a bit of text to make it
more obvious.

* agentexpr.texi (rot): Fix symbolic description, improve
textual description.
Now, GDB is able to dynamically create i386-linux target descriptions
from features, instead of using pre-generated target descriptions. These
pre-generated target descriptions are no longer used by GDB (note that
they are still used by GDBserver).
This patch add a new maint command "maint check xml-descriptions" to test
dynamically generated tdesc are identical to these generated from xml files.

Nowadays, we need two steps to print c files for xml target description,
that is, 1) read xml target description in, update the current tdesc,
2) visit the current tdesc, print the c file. It is unnecessary to
involve in current tdesc, and some validations in each gdbarch are
performed unnecessarily, which will reject some target descriptions if
they are missing some mandatory feature.
This patch adds an optional argument to "maint print c-tdesc", which
is an XML file target description, so that we can combine the two
steps above into one step, and don't have to involve in global current
tdesc.

I helped someone figure out why their separate debug info (debug
link-based) was not found by gdb. It turns out that the debug file was
not named properly. It made me realize that it is quite difficult to
diagnose this kind of problems. This patch adds some debug output to
show where GDB looks for those files, so that it should be (more)
obvious to find what's wrong.
Here's an example of the result, first with an example of unsuccessful lookup,
and then a successful one.

This patch implements the proper support for the "startup-with-shell"
feature on gdbserver. A new packet is added, QStartupWithShell, and
it is sent on initialization. If the host sends a
"QStartupWithShell:1", it means the inferior shall be started using a
shell. If the host sends a "QStartupWithShell:0", it means the
inferior shall be started without using a shell. Any other value is
considered an error.
There is no way to remotely set the shell that will be used by the
target to start the inferior. In order to do that, the user must
start gdbserver while providing a shell via the $SHELL environment
variable. The same is true for the host side.
The "set startup-with-shell" setting from the host side is used to
decide whether to start the remote inferior using a shell. This same
setting is also used to decide whether to use a shell to start the
host inferior; this means that it is not really possible to start the
inferior using different mechanisms on target and host.
A documentation patch is included, along with a new testcase for the
feature.

Add mention of the vMustReplyEmpty to the remote serial protocol

fashion as any other unknown 'v' packet, and I have tried to reflect
this in the description of the packet, it is not simply the case that we
_must_ return the empty string for this packet.
As the intention is that we should treat this packet as unknown then an
argument could be made that we should not document it, however, for
someone implementing a gdbserver from scratch, seeing an undocumented
packet arrive from gdb is confusing, and will probably cause them to
have to read the code in order to check how this packet should be
handled, which is not ideal.
gdb/doc/ChangeLog:
* gdb.texinfo (Packets): Document vMustReplyEmpty packet.
Due to my ongoing work to make it possible for gdbserver to start the
inferior using the shell, I had to share the fork_inferior function
under the "nat/" directory. In order to do that, I created a new file
and put the function there; however, this meant that I now had to
update some of the *.mh files (under "gdb/config") and add the new
file as a dependency to be built natively. Bleh...
After talking a bit to Pedro about this, the idea came up to write a
new "gdb/configure.nat" file, a la "gdb/configure.tgt", which would
concentrate all of the native settings for each host/system. I
decided to tackle this issue.
The patch is simple. All of the previous Makefile variables that were
being declared inside the *.mh files are now inside "gdb/Makefile.in",
and "gdb/configure" is responsible for AC_SUBST'ing them. The
definitions of these variables were put inside "gdb/configure.nat", so
now they're shell variables. For excerpts of Makefile code, one must
create a file under "gdb/config/${gdb_cpu_host}" and reference it on
the "nat_extra_makefile_frag" variable.
It should now be easier to update the native dependencies of hosts in
this single file.
This has been tested on x86_64 without regressions.

I noticed that the documentation on how the info about threads is output
in MI is duplicated and not up to date. The duplication is between the
"GDB/MI Thread Information" page and the -thread-info result
description.
I improved the "GDB/MI Thread Information" page a bit and referred to it
in the -thread-info doc. This way, the -thread-info doc is more precise
(it did not mention the "threads" and "current-thread-id" attributes)
and concise.
gdb/doc/ChangeLog:
* gdb.texinfo (GDB/MI Thread Information): Add missing
fields, re-word some things.
(GDB/MI Thread Commands): Describe fields found in the output of
-thread-info, remove description of fields in the
thread output tuple, replace with a cross-reference to "GDB/MI
Thread Information".
The MI documentation says that -thread-info output contains a "current"
field in the current thread tuple, with the value "*". Current GDB
master does not do this, and I couldn't find any GDB version that did.
I suspect that it was never the case.
The code that would correspond to this in print_thread_info_1 is
essentially dead code. The calls to uiout->text end up in
mi_out::do_text, which is empty.
This patch removes the documentation bit and the dead code. This
"current" field is not necessary, since -thread-info outputs a
"current-thread-id" field.

* thread.c (print_thread_info_1): Remove dead code.

Add disassembler helper for GDB, that uses opcodes structure arc_instruction
and adds convenience functions to handle instruction operands. This interface
solves at least those problems with arc_instruction:
* Some instructions, like "push_s", have implicit operands which are not
directly present in arc_instruction.
* Operands of particular meaning, like branch/jump targets, have various
locations and meaning depending on type of branch/target.
* Access to operand value is abstracted into a separate function, so callee
code shouldn't bother if operand value is an immediate value or in a
register.
Testcases included in this commit are fairly limited - they test exclusively
branch instructions, something that will be used in software single stepping.
Most of the other parts of this disassembler helper are tested during prologue
analysis testing.

This patch initializes the BND registers before executing the inferior
call. BND registers can be in arbitrary values at the moment of the
inferior call. In case the function being called uses as part of the
parameters BND register, e.g. when passing a pointer as parameter, the
current value of the register will be used. This can cause boundary
violations that are not due to a real bug or even desired by the user.
In this sense the best to be done is set the BND registers to allow
access to the whole memory, i.e. initialized state, before pushing the
inferior call.

Years ago we contributed flash programming patches upstream. The following
patch is a leftover one that complements that functionality by adding a new
command to erase all reported flash memory blocks.
The command is most useful when we're dealing with flash-enabled targets
(mostly bare-metal) and we need to reset the board for some reason.
The wiping out of flash memory regions should help the target come up with a
known clean state from which the user can load a new image and resume
debugging. It is convenient enough to do this from the debugger, and there is
also an MI command to expose this functionality to the IDE's.

Update copyright year range in all GDB files.
New in v2:
- A few adjustments / simplifications were possible now that we
require C++11:
. Use std::unique_ptr to make the user_args_stack std::vector own
its elements:
static std::vector<std::unique_ptr<user_args>> user_args_stack;
. use vector::emplace_back to construct elements directly in the
corresponding vectors.
. use std::to_string instead of adding a gdb::to_string
replacement.
- Now includes a test.
Docs/NEWS are unchanged from v1 and have already been approved.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
I recently wrote a user-defined command that could benefit from
supporting an unlimited number of arguments:
http://palves.net/list-active-signal-handlers-with-gdb/
E.g., 'info signal-dispositions 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 11'
However, we currently only support up to 10 arguments passed to
user-defined commands ($arg0..$arg9).
I can't find a good reason for that, other than "old code with hard
coded limits". This patch removes that limit and modernizes the code
along the way:
- Makes the user_args struct a real C++ class that uses std::vector
for storage.
- Removes the "next" pointer from within user_args and uses a
std::vector to maintain a stack instead.
- Adds a new RAII-based scoped_user_args_level class to help
push/pop user args in the stack instead of using a cleanup.

It'd be handy to be able to iterate over command arguments in
user-defined commands, in order to support optional arguments
($arg0..$argN).
I thought I could make it work with "eval", but alas, it doesn't work
currently. E.g., with:
define test
set $i = 0
while $i < $argc
eval "print $arg%d", $i
set $i = $i + 1
end
end
we get:
(gdb) test 1
$1 = void
(gdb) test 1 2 3
$2 = void
$3 = void
$4 = void
(gdb)
The problem is that "eval" doesn't do user-defined command arguments
substitution after expanding its own argument. This patch fixes that,
which makes the example above work:
(gdb) test 1
$1 = 1
(gdb) test 1 2 3
$2 = 1
$3 = 2
$4 = 3
(gdb)
New test included, similar the above, but also exercises expanding
$argc.
I think this is likely to simplify many scripts out there, so I'm
adding an example to the manual and mentioning it in NEWS as well.

Since we don't use suffix rules nor implicit rules in gdb, we can
disable them. The advantage is a slightly faster make [1].
Here are some numbers about the speedup. I ran this on my trusty old
Intel Q6600, so the time numbers are probably higher than what you'd get
on any recent hardware. I ran "make" in the gdb/ directory of an
already built repository (configured with --enable-targets=all). I
recorded the time of execution (average of 5). I then ran "make -d" and
recorded the number of printed lines, which gives a rough idea of the
number of operations done.
I compared the following configurations, to see the impact of both the
empty .SUFFIXES target and the empty pattern rules, as well as running
"make -r", which can be considered the "ideal" case.
A - baseline
B - baseline + .SUFFIXES
C - baseline + pattern rules
D - baseline + .SUFFIXES + pattern rules
E - baseline + make -r
config | time (s) | "make -d"
-----------------------------
A | 5.74 | 2396643
B | 1.19 | 298469
C | 2.81 | 1266573
D | 1.13 | 245489
E | 1.01 | 163914
We can see that the empty .SUFFIXES target has a bigger impact than the
empty pattern rules, but still it doesn't hurt to disable the implicit
pattern rules as well.
There are still some mentions of implicit rules I can't get rid of in
the "make -d" output. For example, it's trying to build .c files from
.w files:
Looking for an implicit rule for '/home/simark/src/binutils-gdb/gdb/infrun.c'.
Trying pattern rule with stem 'infrun'.
Trying implicit prerequisite '/home/simark/src/binutils-gdb/gdb/infrun.w'.
and trying to build Makefile.in from a bunch of extensions:
Looking for an implicit rule for 'Makefile.in'.
Trying pattern rule with stem 'Makefile.in'.
Trying implicit prerequisite 'Makefile.in.o'.
Trying pattern rule with stem 'Makefile.in'.
Trying implicit prerequisite 'Makefile.in.c'.
Trying pattern rule with stem 'Makefile.in'.
Trying implicit prerequisite 'Makefile.in.cc'.
... many more ...
If somebody knows how to disable them, we can do it, but at this point
the returns are minimal, so it is not that important.
I verified that both in-tree and out-of-tree builds work.
[1] Switching from explicit rules to pattern rules for files in
subdirectories actually made it slower, so this is kind of a way to
redeem myself. But it the end it's faster than it was previously,
so it was all worth it. :)

Discussion with qemu folks suggests that the vCont description could
be even simpler and clearer. Given we now say:
For each inferior thread, the leftmost action with a matching
thread-id is applied.
There's really no need to even talk about "default" actions, which
raises doubts about whether "default" is special in some way (it's
not).
