This fixes PR 17106, a regression in printing.
The bug is that resolve_dynamic_type follows struct members and
references, but doesn't consider the possibility of infinite
recursion.
This patch fixes the problem by limiting reference following to the
topmost layer of calls -- that is, reference-typed struct members are
never considered as being VLAs.
Built and regtested on x86-64 Fedora 20.
New test case included.

This fixes the record "run" regression pointed out by Marc Khouzam:
https://sourceware.org/ml/gdb/2014-06/msg00096.html
The bug is that target_require_runnable must agree with the handling
of the "run" target, but currently it is out of sync. This patch
fixes the problem by changing target_require_runnable to also ignore
the record_stratum.

Right now we provide a board info entry, `gdb_init_command', that allows
one to send a single command to GDB before the program to be debugged is
started. This is useful e.g. for slow remote targets to change the
default "remotetimeout" setting. Occasionally I found a need to send
multiple commands instead, however this cannot be achieved with
`gdb_init_command'.
This change therefore extends the mechanism by adding a TCL list of GDB
commands to send, via a board info entry called `gdb_init_commands'.
There is no limit as to the number of commands put there. The old
`gdb_init_command' mechanism remains supported for compatibility with
existing people's environments.

We see a fail in gdb.trace/entry-values.exp on armv4t thumb,

(gdb) FAIL: gdb.trace/entry-values.exp: bt (1) (pattern 1)
The fail is caused by incorrect prologue analysis, which can be illustrated by
setting a breakpoint on function foo,

As we can see, GDB analyzes the prologue and skip the prologue to the last
instruction but one. The breakpoint is set within the epilogue, and GDB
skips too many instruction for prologue. This patch teaches GDB to stop
prologue analysis when goes into the epilogue. With this patch applied,
GDB is able to unwind correctly,

* arm-tdep.c (thumb_analyze_prologue): Break the loop if
thumb_instruction_restores_sp return true.
This is a refactor patch, that moves matching instructions adjusting
SP into a new function, thumb_instruction_restores_sp. The second
call to thumb_instruction_restores_sp in thumb_in_function_epilogue_p
is a little different from the original. The original code matches
'POP <registers> without PC', but thumb_in_function_epilogue_p matches
'POP <registers> (with and without PC)'. However, GDB found one
instruction about return and is scanning the previous instruction,
which should be an instruction about return too, so the code change
doesn't affect the functionality.

* arm-tdep.c (thumb_instruction_restores_sp): New function.
(thumb_in_function_epilogue_p): Call
thumb_instruction_restores_sp.
Currently, GDB matches both add/sub sp, #imm in prologue and epilogue,
which is not very precise. On the instruction level, the immediate
number in both instruction can't be negative, so 'sub sp, #imm' only
appears in prologue while 'add sp, #imm' only appears in epilogue.
Note that on assembly level, we can write 'add sp, -8', but gas will
translate to 'sub sp, 8' instruction.
This patch is to only match 'sub sp, #imm' in prologue and match
'add sp, #immm' in epilogue. It paves the way for the following
patch.

The problem is that linux_wait_for_event deletes lwps that have exited
(even those not passed in as lwps of interest), while the lwp/thread
list is being walked on with find_inferior. find_inferior can handle
the current iterated inferior being deleted, but not others.
When killing lwps, we don't really care about any of the pending
status handling of linux_wait_for_event. We can just waitpid the lwps
directly, which is also what GDB does (see
linux-nat.c:kill_wait_callback). This way the lwps are not deleted
while we're walking the list. They'll be deleted by linux_mourn
afterwards.
This crash triggers several times when running the testsuite against
GDBserver with the native-gdbserver board (target remote), but as GDB
can't distinguish between GDBserver crashing and "kill" being
sucessful, as in both cases the connection is closed (the 'k' packet
doesn't require a reply), and the inferior is gone, that results in no
FAIL.
The patch adds a generic test that catches the issue with
extended-remote mode (and works fine with native testing too). Here's
how it fails with the native-extended-gdbserver board without the fix:

When debugging a remote bare-metal target with "target
extended-remote" + attach, GDB won't send a qSymbol packet to initiate
symbol lookup. This happens because all the previous places in which
GDB might have done this are guarded by conditions that don't hold in
the said scenario: there are no shared libraries, no vsyscall page and
the binary file didn't change in the time passed between the "file"
and the "attach" commands.

is_inconsistent_linkonce_section makes an assumption that section name
that starts with ".gnu.linkonce.prop." has one more dot in its suffix.
However gas generates such section name by insertion of "prop." right
after ".gnu.linkonce." part of the name of the original section. So, for
section named ".gnu.linkonce.this_module" corresponding property section
name does not satisfy the assumption. Such section names are common in
linux modules. This bug was exposed by the patch "a35d5e8 Fix alignment
for the first section frag on xtensa", that makes gas produce property
section for each section that has ".align" directive in it.
Use suffix that immediately follows ".gnu.linkonce.prop." when there are
no more dots following it.

On async targets, a synchronous attach is done like this:
#1 - target_attach is called (PTRACE_ATTACH is issued)
#2 - a continuation is installed
#3 - we go back to the event loop
#4 - target reports stop (SIGSTOP), event loop wakes up, and
attach continuation is called
#5 - among other things, the continuation calls
target_terminal_inferior, which removes stdin from the event
loop
Note that in #3, GDB is still processing user input. If the user is
fast enough, e.g., with something like:
echo -e "attach PID\nset xxx=1" | gdb
... then the "set" command is processed before the attach completes.
We get worse behavior even, if input is a tty and therefore
readline/editing is enabled, with e.g.,:
(gdb) attach PID\nset xxx=1
we then crash readline/gdb, with:

The MI command -var-info-path-expression currently does not handle
non-anonymous structs / unions nested within other structs / unions,
it will skip parts of the expression. Consider this example:
## START EXAMPLE ##
$ cat ex.c
#include <string.h>
int
main ()
{
struct s1
{
int a;
};
struct ss
{
struct s1 x;
};
struct ss an_ss;
memset (&an_ss, 0, sizeof (an_ss));
return 0;
}
$ gcc -g -o ex.x ex.c
$ gdb ex.x
(gdb) break 18
Breakpoint 1 at 0x80483ba: file ex.c, line 18.
(gdb) run
Starting program: /home/user/ex.x
Breakpoint 1, main () at ex.c:18
18 return 0;
(gdb) interpreter-exec mi "-var-create an_ss * an_ss"
(gdb) interpreter-exec mi "-var-list-children an_ss"
^done,numchild="1",children=[child={name="an_ss.x",exp="x",numchild="1",type="struct s1",thread-id="1"}],has_more="0"
(gdb) interpreter-exec mi "-var-list-children an_ss.x"
^done,numchild="1",children=[child={name="an_ss.x.a",exp="a",numchild="0",type="int",thread-id="1"}],has_more="0"
(gdb) interpreter-exec mi "-var-list-children an_ss.x.a"
^done,numchild="0",has_more="0"
(gdb) interpreter-exec mi "-var-info-path-expression an_ss.x.a"
^done,path_expr="(an_ss).a"
(gdb) print (an_ss).a
There is no member named a.
## END EXAMPLE ##
Notice that the path expression returned is wrong, and as a result
the print command fails.
This patch adds a new method to the varobj_ops structure called
is_path_expr_parent, to allow language specific control over finding
the parent varobj, the current logic becomes the C/C++ version and is
extended to handle the nested cases. No other language currently uses
this code, so all other languages just get a default method.
With this patch, the above example now finishes like this:
## START EXAMPLE ##
$ gdb ex.x
(gdb) break 18
Breakpoint 1 at 0x80483ba: file ex.c, line 18.
(gdb) run
Starting program: /home/user/ex.x
Breakpoint 1, main () at ex.c:18
18 return 0;
(gdb) interpreter-exec mi "-var-list-children an_ss"
^done,numchild="1",children=[child={name="an_ss.x",exp="x",numchild="1",type="struct s1",thread-id="1"}],has_more="0"
(gdb) interpreter-exec mi "-var-list-children an_ss.x"
^done,numchild="1",children=[child={name="an_ss.x.a",exp="a",numchild="0",type="int",thread-id="1"}],has_more="0"
(gdb) interpreter-exec mi "-var-list-children an_ss.x.a"
^done,numchild="0",has_more="0"
(gdb) interpreter-exec mi "-var-info-path-expression an_ss.x.a"
^done,path_expr="((an_ss).x).a"
(gdb) print ((an_ss).x).a
$1 = 0
## END EXAMPLE ##
Notice that the path expression is now correct, and the print is a
success.

Alan Modra committed a patch to Gnu ld to fix a problem encountered on
PPC where the --defsym option wasn't copying the st_other bits to the
newly-defined symbol.
https://sourceware.org/ml/binutils/2014-07/msg00094.html
Gold has the same problem, and additionally wasn't copying the symbol type.
This patch fixes both problems, by copying the symbol type, visibility, and
the remaining st_other bits to the new symbol for --defsym=sym1=sym2
assignments.

This fixes a problem seen on powerpc64le ELFv2 when creating a
function symbol alias with ld --defsym. st_other needs to be copied
from the source symbol to the alias in order to set up the local entry
offset for the alias. I decided to make this change in the generic
ELF code rather than in elf64-ppc.c since it looks like other targets
that use st_other bits might benefit too.

We see some fails in gdb.trace/entry-values.exp in thumb mode
(-mthumb -march={armv4t,armv7-a}).
In thumb mode, the lsb of references to 'foo' and 'bar' in the assembly
(produced by dwarf assember) is set, so the generated debug
information is incorrect.

Objects built with -fno-fat-lto-objects (the default for gcc-4.9) have
no normal symbols, except things like __gnu_lto_slim. These useless
symbols are the ones put into the archive index, and of course nothing
references them so no objects are extracted by the linker. Running
ar with --plugin changes ar behaviour to put the lto symbols into the
archive index.

On Windows, with "maint set target-async on" (the default since
a09dd441), Ctrl-C fails to stop a remote target.
With maint target-async on, the SIGINT signal handler doesn't send the
remote interrupt request immediately. Instead, it marks an async
handler as ready, and then the main event loop wakes up and notices
that the SIGINT async signal handler token was set, and calls the
corresponding event handler, which sends the remote interrupt request.
On POSIX-like systems, the SIGINT signal makes the select/poll in the
main event loop wake up / return with EINTR. However, on Windows,
signal handlers run on a separate thread, and Windows doesn't really
have a concept of EINTR. So, just marking the async handler
(effectively just setting a flag) does not wake up gdb_select.
Instead, we need to call gdb_call_async_signal_handler from the signal
handler. The Windows version (in mingw-hdep.c) sets a Windows event
that gdb_select's WaitForMultipleObjects is waiting for.
Confirmed that with this, Ctrl-C interrupts the remote target on
Windows. Also regression tested on x86_64 Fedora 20 against
GDBserver.
