FreeBSD ELF cores contain data structures with that have two different
layouts: one for ILP32 platforms and a second for LP64 platforms.
Previously, the code used 'bits_per_word' from 'arch_info', but this
field is not a reliable indicator of the format for FreeBSD MIPS cores
in particular.
I had originally posted this patch back in November because process
cores for FreeBSD MIPS contained an e_flags value of 0 in the header
which resulted in a bfd_arch which always had 'bits_per_word' set to
32. This permitted reading o32 cores, but not n64 cores. The feedback
I received then was to try to change n64 cores to use a different
default bfd_arch that had a 64-bit 'bits_per_word' when e_flags was zero.
I submitted a patch to that effect but it was never approved. Instead,
I changed FreeBSD's kernel and gcore commands to preserve the e_flags
field from an executable when generating process cores. With a proper
e_flags field in process cores, n64 cores now use a 64-bit bfd_arch and
now work fine. However, the change to include e_flags in the process
cores had the unintended side effect of breaking handling of o32
process cores. Specifically, FreeBSD MIPS builds o32 with a default
MIPS architecture of 'mips3', thus FreeBSD process cores with a non-zero
e_flags match the 'mips3' bfd_arch which has 64 'bits_per_word'.
From this, it seems that 'bits_per_word' for FreeBSD MIPS is not likely
to ever be completely correct. However, FreeBSD core dumps do
reliably set the ELF class to ELFCLASS32 for cores using ILP32 and
ELFCLASS64 for cores using LP64. As such, I think my original patch of
using the ELF class instead of 'bits_per_word' is probably the simplest
and most reliable approach for detecting the note structure layout.

ELFv2 functions with localentry:0 are those with a single entry point,
ie. global entry == local entry, and that have no requirement on r2 or
r12, and guarantee r2 is unchanged on return. Such an external
function can be called via the PLT without saving r2 or restoring it
on return, avoiding a common load-hit-store for small functions. The
optimization is attractive. The TOC pointer load-hit-store is a major
reason why calls to small functions that need no register saves, or
with shrink-wrap, no register saves on a fast path, are slow on
powerpc64le.
To be safe, this optimization needs ld.so support to check that the
run-time matches link-time function implementation. If a function
in a shared library with st_other localentry non-zero is called
without saving and restoring r2, r2 will be trashed on return, leading
to segfaults. For that reason the optimization does not happen for
weak functions since a weak definition is a fairly solid hint that the
function will likely be overridden. I'm also not enabling the
optimization by default unless glibc-2.26 is detected, which should
have the ld.so checks implemented.

Later CPU generations added optional operands to the ipte/idte
instructions. I've added these with:
https://sourceware.org/ml/binutils/2017-05/msg00316.html ... but
supported the optional operands only with the specific hardware
levels. However, it is more useful to have the optional operands
already in the first versions. Of course they need to be zero there.
Regression-tested with on s390 and s390x. Committed to mainline.

Currently print_insn_arc relies on BFD mach and ELF private headers to
distinguish between various ARC architectures. Sometimes those values are not
correct or available, mainly in the case of debugging targets without and ELF
file available. Changing a BFD mach is not a problem for the debugger, because
this is a generic BFD field, and GDB, for example, already sets it according to
information provided in XML target description or specified via GDB 'set arch'
command. However, things are more complicated for ELF private headers, since
it requires existing of an actual ELF file. To workaround this problem this
patch allows CPU model to be specified via disassemble info options. If CPU is
specified in options, then it will take a higher precedence than whatever might
be specified in ELF file.
This is mostly needed for ARC EM and ARC HS, because they have the same
"architecture" (mach) ARCv2 and differ in their private ELF headers. Other ARC
architectures can be distinguished between each other purely via "mach" field.
Proposed disassemble option format is "cpu=<CPU>", where CPU can be any valid
ARC CPU name as supported by GAS. Note that this creates a seeming redundancy
with objdump -m/--architecture option, however -mEM and -mHS still result in
"ARCv2" architecture internally, while -Mcpu={HS,EM} would have an actual
effect on disassembler.

This patch extracts ARC CPU definitions from gas/config/tc-arc.c (cpu_types)
into a separate file arc-cpu.def. This will allow reuse of CPU type definition
in multiple places where it might be needed, for example in disassembler. This
will help ensure that gas and disassembker use same option values for CPUs.
arc-cpu.def file relies on preprocessor macroses which are defined somewhere
else. This for example multiple C files to include arc-cpu.def, but define
different macroses, therefore creating different structures.

The general rule for bfd_arch_info_type->compatible (A, B) is that if A and B
are compatible, then this function should return architecture that is more
"feature-rich", that is, can run both A and B. ARCv2, EM and HS all has same
mach number, so bfd_default_compatible assumes they are the same, and returns
an A. That causes issues with GDB, because GDB assumes that if machines are
compatible, then "compatible ()" always returns same machine regardless of
argument order. As a result GDB gets confused because, for example,
compatible(ARCv2, EM) returns ARCv2, but compatible(EM, ARCv2) returns EM,
hence GDB is not sure if they are compatible and prints a warning.

This used to hold a pair of pointers to the previous and next function segment
that belong to this function call. Replace with a pair of indices into the
vector of function segments.
This used to hold a pair of pointers to the previous and next function segment
in execution flow order. It is no longer necessary as the previous and next
function segments now are simply the previous and next elements in the vector
of function segments.
These are no longer needed and might hold invalid addresses once we change the
vector of function segment pointers into a vector of function segment objects
where a reallocation of the vector changes the address of its elements.
Directly insert new btrace_function pointers into the vector and have the
vector own these pointers. This allows us to later retrieve these objects by
their number directly after creation whereas at the moment we have to wait
until the vector is fully populated.
This requires to pull btrace_thread_info through different functions but
cleans up the code for freeing the trace.

So far we only had an instruction flag which made an arbitrary number
of operands optional. This limits error checking capabilities for
instructions marked that way. With this patch the optparm flag only

This patch adds one unit test for gdbarch methods register_to_value and
value_to_register. The test pass different combinations of {regnu, type}
to gdbarch_register_to_value and gdbarch_value_to_register. In order
to do the test, add a new function create_new_frame to create a fake
frame. It can be improved after we converted frame_info to class.
In order to isolate regcache (from target_ops operations on writing
registers, like target_store_registers), the sub-class of regcache in the
test override raw_write. Also, in order to get the right regcache from
get_thread_arch_aspace_regcache, the sub-class of regcache inserts itself
to current_regcache.
