I noticed that if you set a breakpoint on an ifunc before the ifunc is
resolved, and then let the program call the ifunc, thus resolving it,
GDB end up with a location for that original breakpoint that is
pointing to the ifunc target, but it is left pointing to the first
address of the function, instead of after its prologue. After
prologue is what you get if you create a new breakpoint at that point.
1) With no debug info for the target function:
1.a) Set before resolving, and then program continued passed resolving:
Num Type Disp Enb Address What
1 breakpoint keep y 0x0000000000400753 <final>
1.b) Breakpoint set after inferior resolved ifunc:
Num Type Disp Enb Address What
2 breakpoint keep y 0x0000000000400757 <final+4>
2) With debug info for the target function:
1.a) Set before resolving, and then program continued passed resolving:
Num Type Disp Enb Address What
1 breakpoint keep y 0x0000000000400753 in final at gdb/testsuite/gdb.base/gnu-ifunc-final.c:20
1.b) Breakpoint set after inferior resolved ifunc:
Num Type Disp Enb Address What
2 breakpoint keep y 0x000000000040075a in final at gdb/testsuite/gdb.base/gnu-ifunc-final.c:21
The problem is that elf_gnu_ifunc_resolver_return_stop (called by the
internal breakpoint that traps the resolver returning) does not agree
with linespec.c:minsym_found. It does not skip to the function's
start line (i.e., past the prologue). We can now use the
find_function_start_sal overload added by the previous commmit to fix
this.
New tests included, which fail before the patch, and pass afterwards.
gdb/ChangeLog:
2018-04-26 Pedro Alves <palves@redhat.com>
* elfread.c (elf_gnu_ifunc_resolver_return_stop): Use
find_function_start_sal instead of find_pc_line.
gdb/testsuite/ChangeLog:
2018-04-26 Pedro Alves <palves@redhat.com>
* gdb.base/gnu-ifunc.exp (set-break): Test that GDB resolves
ifunc breakpoint locations correctly of ifunc breakpoints set
while the program resolves the ifunc.
Running the new tests added later in the series on PPC64 (ELFv1)
revealed that the current ifunc support needs a bit of a design rework
to work properly on PPC64/ELFv1, as most of the new tests fail. The
ifunc support only kind of works today if the ifunc symbol and the
resolver have the same name, as is currently tested by the
gdb.base/gnu-ifunc.exp testcase, which is unlike how ifuncs are
written nowadays.
The crux of the problem is that ifunc symbols are really function
descriptors, not text symbols:
44: 0000000000020060 104 FUNC GLOBAL DEFAULT 18 gnu_ifunc_resolver
54: 0000000000020060 104 GNU_IFUNC GLOBAL DEFAULT 18 gnu_ifunc
But, currently GDB only knows about ifunc symbols that are text
symbols. GDB's support happens to work in practice for PPC64 when the
ifunc and resolver are one and only, like in the current
gdb.base/gnu-ifunc.exp testcase:
15: 0000000000020060 104 GNU_IFUNC GLOBAL DEFAULT 18 gnu_ifunc
because in that case, the synthetic ".gnu_ifunc" entry point text
symbol that bfd creates from the actual GNU ifunc "gnu_ifunc" function
(descriptor) symbol ends up with the the "is a gnu ifunc" flag set /
copied over:
(gdb) maint print msymbols
...
[ 8] i 0x9c4 .gnu_ifunc section .text <<< mst_text_gnu_ifunc
...
[29] D 0x20060 gnu_ifunc section .opd crtstuff.c <<< mst_data
But, if the resolver gets a distinct symbol/name from the ifunc
symbol, then we end up with this:
(gdb) maint print msymbols
[ 8] T 0x9e4 .gnu_ifunc_resolver section .text <<< mst_text
...
[29] D 0x20060 gnu_ifunc section .opd crtstuff.c <<< mst_data
[30] D 0x20060 gnu_ifunc_resolver section .opd crtstuff.c <<< mst_data
I have a follow up bfd patch that turns that into:
(gdb) maint print msymbols
+ [ 8] i 0x9e4 .gnu_ifunc section .text <<< mst_text_gnu_ifunc
[ 8] T 0x9e4 .gnu_ifunc_resolver section .text <<< mst_text
...
[29] D 0x20060 gnu_ifunc section .opd crtstuff.c
[30] D 0x20060 gnu_ifunc_resolver section .opd crtstuff.c
but that won't help everything. We still need this patch.
Specifically, when we do a symbol lookup by name, like e.g., to call a
function (see c-exp.y hunk), e.g., "p gnu_ifunc()", then we need to
know that the found "gnu_ifunc" minimal symbol is an ifunc in order to
do some special processing. But, on PPC, that lookup by name finds
the function descriptor symbol, which presently is just a mst_data
symbol, while at present, we look for mst_text_gnu_ifunc symbols to
decide whether to do special GNU ifunc processing. In most of those
places, we could try to resolve the function descriptor with
gdbarch_convert_from_func_ptr_addr, and then lookup the minimal symbol
at the resolved PC, see if that finds a minimal symbol of type
mst_text_gnu_ifunc. If so, then we could assume that the original
mst_dadta / function descriptor "gnu_ifunc" symbol was an ifunc. I
tried it, and it mostly works, even if it's not the most efficient.
However, there's one case that can't work with such a design -- it's
that of the user calling the ifunc resolver directly to debug it, like
"p gnu_ifunc_resolver(0)", expecting that to return the function
pointer of the final function (which is exercised by the new tests
added later). In this case, with the not-fully-working solution, we'd
resolve the function descriptor, find that there's an
mst_text_gnu_ifunc symbol for the resolved address, and proceed
calling the function as if we tried to call "gnu_ifunc", the
user-visible GNU ifunc symbol, instead of the resolver. I.e., it'd be
impossible to call the resolver directly as a normal function.
Introducing mst_data_gnu_ifunc eliminates the need for several
gdbarch_convert_from_func_ptr_addr calls, and, fixes the "call
resolver directly" use case mentioned above too. It's the cleanest
approach I could think of.
In sum, we make GNU ifunc function descriptor symbols get a new
"mst_data_gnu_ifunc" minimal symbol type instead of the bare mst_data
type. So when symbol lookup by name finds such a minimal symbol, we
know we found an ifunc symbol, without resolving the entry/text
symbol. If the user calls the the resolver symbol instead, like "p
gnu_ifunc_resolver(0)", then we'll find the regular mst_data symbol
for "gnu_ifunc_resolver", and we'll call the resolver function as just
another regular function.
With this, most of the GNU ifunc tests added by a later patch pass on
PPC64 too. The following bfd patch fixes the remaining issues.
gdb/ChangeLog:
2018-04-26 Pedro Alves <palves@redhat.com>
* breakpoint.c (set_breakpoint_location_function): Handle
mst_data_gnu_ifunc.

elf_gnu_ifunc_record_cache doesn't ever record anything on PPC64
(tested on gcc110 on the compile farm, CentOS 7.4, ELFv1), because
that expects to find PLT symbols in the .plt section, while there we
get:
(gdb) info symbol 'gnu_ifunc@plt'
gnu_ifunc@plt in section .text
^^^^^
I guess that may be related to the comment in ppc-linux-tdep.c that
says "For secure PLT, stub is in .text".
In any case, this commit fixes the issue by making the function look
at the symbol name instead of at the section.
gdb/ChangeLog:
2018-04-26 Pedro Alves <palves@redhat.com>
* elfread.c (elf_gnu_ifunc_record_cache): Check if the symbol name
ends in "@plt" instead of looking at the symbol's section.
The next patch will add a call to elf_gnu_ifunc_resolve_by_got that
trips on a latent buglet -- the function is writing to its output
parameter even if the address wasn't found, confusing the caller. The
function's intro comment says:
/* Try to find the target resolved function entry address of a STT_GNU_IFUNC
function NAME. If the address is found it is stored to *ADDR_P (if ADDR_P
is not NULL) and the function returns 1. It returns 0 otherwise.
So fix the function accordingly.
gdb/ChangeLog:
2018-04-26 Pedro Alves <palves@redhat.com>
* elfread.c (elf_gnu_ifunc_resolve_by_got): Don't write to *ADDR_P
unless we actually resolved the ifunc.
Setting a breakpoint on an ifunc symbol after the ifunc has already
been resolved by the inferior should result in creating a breakpoint
location at the ifunc target. However, that's not what happens on
current Fedora:
(gdb) n
53 i = gnu_ifunc (1); /* break-at-call */
(gdb)
54 assert (i == 2);
(gdb) b gnu_ifunc
Breakpoint 2 at gnu-indirect-function resolver at 0x7ffff7bd36ee
(gdb) info breakpoints
Num Type Disp Enb Address What
2 STT_GNU_IFUNC resolver keep y 0x00007ffff7bd36ee <gnu_ifunc+4>
The problem is that elf_gnu_ifunc_resolve_by_got never manages to
resolve an ifunc target. The reason is that GDB never actually
creates the internal got.plt symbols:
(gdb) p 'gnu_ifunc@got.plt'
No symbol "gnu_ifunc@got.plt" in current context.
and this is because GDB expects that rela.plt has relocations for
.plt, while it actually has relocations for .got.plt:
Relocation section [10] '.rela.plt' for section [22] '.got.plt' at offset 0x570 contains 2 entries:
Offset Type Value Addend Name
0x0000000000601018 X86_64_JUMP_SLOT 000000000000000000 +0 __assert_fail
0x0000000000601020 X86_64_JUMP_SLOT 000000000000000000 +0 gnu_ifunc
Using an older system on the GCC compile farm (machine gcc15, an
x86-64 running Debian 6.0.8, with GNU ld 2.20.1), we see that it used
to be that we'd get a .rela.plt section for .plt:
Relocation section [ 9] '.rela.plt' for section [11] '.plt' at offset 0x578 contains 3 entries:
Offset Type Value Addend Name
0x0000000000600cc0 X86_64_JUMP_SLOT 000000000000000000 +0 __assert_fail
0x0000000000600cc8 X86_64_JUMP_SLOT 000000000000000000 +0 __libc_start_main
0x0000000000600cd0 X86_64_JUMP_SLOT 000000000000000000 +0 gnu_ifunc
Those offsets did point into .got.plt, as seen with objdump -h:
20 .got.plt 00000030 0000000000600ca8 0000000000600ca8 00000ca8 2**3
CONTENTS, ALLOC, LOAD, DATA
I also tested on gcc110 on the compile farm (PPC64 running CentOS
7.4.1708, with GNU ld 2.25.1), and there we see instead:
Relocation section [ 9] '.rela.plt' for section [23] '.plt' at offset 0x5d0 contains 4 entries:
Offset Type Value Addend Name
0x0000000010020148 PPC64_JMP_SLOT 000000000000000000 +0 __libc_start_main
0x0000000010020160 PPC64_JMP_SLOT 000000000000000000 +0 __gmon_start__
0x0000000010020178 PPC64_JMP_SLOT 000000000000000000 +0 __assert_fail
0x0000000010020190 PPC64_JMP_SLOT 000000000000000000 +0 gnu_ifunc
But note that those offsets point into .plt, not .got.plt, as seen
with objdump -h:
22 .plt 00000078 0000000010020130 0000000010020130 00010130 2**3
ALLOC
This commit makes us support all the different combinations above.
With that addressed, we now get:
(gdb) p 'gnu_ifunc@got.plt'
$1 = (<text from jump slot in .got.plt, no debug info>) 0x400753 <final>
And setting a breakpoint on the ifunc finds the ifunc target:
(gdb) b gnu_ifunc
Breakpoint 2 at 0x400753
(gdb) info breakpoints
Num Type Disp Enb Address What
2 breakpoint keep y 0x0000000000400753 <final>
gdb/ChangeLog:

Fix this by reverting the patch mentioned above and at the same time
re-adding .debug_names support by adding a new output parameter to
dwarf2_initialize_objfile to indicate the index variant in use. We
can reuse the new dw_index_kind enum in dwarf2read.c for that.

* defs.h (elf_sym_fns_lazy_psyms, elf_sym_fns_gdb_index)
(elf_sym_fns_debug_names): Move to elfread.c.
* dwarf2read.c (dwarf2_initialize_objfile): Return a boolean
instead of a sym_fns and add 'index_kind' output parameter. Fill
the latter in with the index variant kind if using an index.
(enum dw_index_kind): Moved to symfile.h.

interface.
* symfile.h (enum class dw_index_kind): New, moved from
dwarf2read.c.
(dwarf2_initialize_objfile): Change prototype.
Some testcases needed to be updated as they were missing
.debug_aranges. While that does not matter for no-index (as GDB
builds the mapping internally during dwarf2_build_psymtabs_hard) and
neither for .gdb_index (as GDB uses that internally built mapping
which it stores into .gdb_index) it does matter for .debug_names as
that simply assumes existing .debug_aranges from GCC.

The purpose of this concept is to turn the load of debugging
information off, either globally (via the '--readnever' option), or
objfile-specific. The implementation proposed here is an extension of
the patch distributed with Fedora GDB; looking at the Fedora patch
itself and the history, one can see some reasons why it was never
resubmitted:
- The patch appears to have been introduced as a workaround, at
least initially;
- The patch is far from perfect, as it simply shunts the load of
DWARF debugging information, without really worrying about the
other debug format.
- Who really does non-symbolic debugging anyways?
One use of this feature is when a user simply wants to do the
following sequence: attach, dump core, detach. Loading the debugging
information in this case is an unnecessary cause of delay.
This patch expands the version shipped with Fedora GDB in order to
make the feature available for all the debuginfo backends, not only
for DWARF. It also implements a per-objfile flag which can be
activated by using the "-readnever" command when using the
'add-symbol-file' or 'symbol-file' commands.
It's also worth mentioning that this patch tests whether GDB correctly
fails to initialize if both '--readnow' and '--readnever' options are
passed.
Tested on the BuildBot.

This patch converts the generic probe interface (gdb/probe.[ch]) to
C++, and also performs some cleanups that were on my TODO list for a
while.
The main changes were the conversion of 'struct probe' to 'class
probe', and 'struct probe_ops' to 'class static_probe_ops'. The
former now contains all the "dynamic", generic methods that act on a
probe + the generic data related to it; the latter encapsulates a
bunch of "static" methods that relate to the probe type, but not to a
specific probe itself.
I've had to do a few renamings (e.g., on 'struct bound_probe' the
field is called 'probe *prob' now, instead of 'struct probe *probe')
because GCC was complaining about naming the field using the same name
as the class. Nothing major, though. Generally speaking, the logic
behind and the design behind the code are the same.
Even though I'm sending a series of patches, they need to be tested
and committed as a single unit, because of inter-dependencies. But it
should be easier to review in separate logical units.
I've regtested this patch on BuildBot, no regressions found.

This introduces gdb_breakpoint_up, a unique_ptr typedef that owns a
breakpoint. It then changes set_momentary_breakpoint to return a
gdb_breakpoint_up and fixes up the fallout. This then allows the
removal of make_cleanup_delete_breakpoint.
Once breakpoints are fully C++-ified, this typedef can be removed in
favor of a plain std::unique_ptr.

This commit works around a GCC 6.3.1 bug several people are hitting:
https://sourceware.org/ml/gdb-patches/2017-09/msg00270.htmlhttps://sourceware.org/ml/gdb-patches/2017-10/msg00418.html
It manifests like this:
../../../binutils-gdb/gdb/probe.c:68:12: error: types may not be defined in a for-range-declaration [-Werror]

This patch replaces the usage of VEC to store pointers to probe_ops with
an std::vector. The sole usage of that vector type is one global
variable that holds the ops for the various kinds of probes, so this is
pretty straightforward (no allocation/deallocation issues).

This patch changes one usage of VEC to std::vector. It is a relatively
straightforward 1:1 change. The implementations of
sym_probe_fns::sym_get_probes return a borrowed reference to their probe
vectors, meaning that the caller should not free it. In the new code, I
made them return a const reference to the vector.

The fact that GDB defaults to assuming that functions return int, when
it has no debug info for the function has been a recurring source of
user confusion. Recently this came up on the errno pretty printer
discussions. Shortly after, it came up again on IRC, with someone
wondering why does getenv() in GDB return a negative int:
(gdb) p getenv("PATH")
$1 = -6185
This question (with s/getenv/random-other-C-runtime-function) is a FAQ
on IRC.
The reason for the above is:
(gdb) p getenv
$2 = {<text variable, no debug info>} 0x7ffff7751d80 <getenv>
(gdb) ptype getenv
type = int ()
... which means that GDB truncated the 64-bit pointer that is actually
returned from getent to 32-bit, and then sign-extended it:
(gdb) p /x -6185
$6 = 0xffffe7d7
The workaround is to cast the function to the right type, like:
(gdb) p ((char *(*) (const char *)) getenv) ("PATH")
$3 = 0x7fffffffe7d7 "/usr/local/bin:/"...
IMO, we should do better than this.
I see the "assume-int" issue the same way I see printing bogus values
for optimized-out variables instead of "<optimized out>" -- I'd much
rather that the debugger tells me "I don't know" and tells me how to
fix it than showing me bogus misleading results, making me go around
tilting at windmills.
If GDB prints a signed integer when you're expecting a pointer or
aggregate, you at least have some sense that something is off, but
consider the case of the function actually returning a 64-bit integer.
For example, compile this without debug info:
unsigned long long
function ()
{
return 0x7fffffffffffffff;
}
Currently, with pristine GDB, you get:
(gdb) p function ()
$1 = -1 # incorrect
(gdb) p /x function ()
$2 = 0xffffffff # incorrect
maybe after spending a few hours debugging you suspect something is
wrong with that -1, and do:
(gdb) ptype function
type = int ()
and maybe, just maybe, you realize that the function actually returns
unsigned long long. And you try to fix it with:
(gdb) p /x (unsigned long long) function ()
$3 = 0xffffffffffffffff # incorrect
... which still produces the wrong result, because GDB simply applied
int to unsigned long long conversion. Meaning, it sign-extended the
integer that it extracted from the return of the function, to 64-bits.
and then maybe, after asking around on IRC, you realize you have to
cast the function to a pointer of the right type, and call that. It
won't be easy, but after a few missteps, you'll get to it:
..... (gdb) p /x ((unsigned long long(*) ()) function) ()
$666 = 0x7fffffffffffffff # finally! :-)
So to improve on the user experience, this patch does the following
(interrelated) things:
- makes no-debug-info functions no longer default to "int" as return
type. Instead, they're left with NULL/"<unknown return type>"
return type.
(gdb) ptype getenv
type = <unknown return type> ()
- makes calling a function with unknown return type an error.
(gdb) p getenv ("PATH")
'getenv' has unknown return type; cast the call to its declared return type
- and then to make it easier to call the function, makes it possible
to _only_ cast the return of the function to the right type,
instead of having to cast the function to a function pointer:
(gdb) p (char *) getenv ("PATH") # now Just Works
$3 = 0x7fffffffe7d7 "/usr/local/bin:/"...
(gdb) p ((char *(*) (const char *)) getenv) ("PATH") # continues working
$4 = 0x7fffffffe7d7 "/usr/local/bin:/"...
I.e., it makes GDB default the function's return type to the type
of the cast, and the function's parameters to the type of the
arguments passed down.
After this patch, here's what you'll get for the "unsigned long long"
example above:
(gdb) p function ()
'function' has unknown return type; cast the call to its declared return type
(gdb) p /x (unsigned long long) function ()
$4 = 0x7fffffffffffffff # correct!
Note that while with "print" GDB shows the name of the function that
has the problem:
(gdb) p getenv ("PATH")
'getenv' has unknown return type; cast the call to its declared return type
which can by handy in more complicated expressions, "ptype" does not:
(gdb) ptype getenv ("PATH")
function has unknown return type; cast the call to its declared return type
This will be fixed in the next patch.

Instead, make symtab_and_line initialize its members itself. Many

initialized at the same time both for clarity and to avoid double

This replaces "struct symtabs_and_lines" with
std::vector<symtab_and_line> in most cases. This removes a number of
cleanups.
In some cases, the sals objects do not own the sals they point at.
Instead they point at some sal that lives on the stack. Typically
something like this:
struct symtab_and_line sal;
struct symtabs_and_lines sals;
// fill in sal
sals.nelts = 1;
sals.sals = &sal;
// use sals
Instead of switching those cases to std::vector too, such usages are
replaced by gdb::array_view<symtab_and_line> instead. This avoids
introducing heap allocations.

This introduces a new specialization of gdb::ref_ptr that can be used
to manage BFD reference counts. Then it changes most places in gdb to
use this new class, rather than explicit reference-counting or
cleanups. This patch removes make_cleanup_bfd_unref.
If you look you will see a couple of spots using "release" where a use
of gdb_bfd_ref_ptr would be cleaner. These will be fixed in the next
patch.
I think this patch fixes some latent bugs. For example, it seems to
me that previously objfpy_add_separate_debug_file leaked a BFD.
I'm not 100% certain that the macho_symfile_read_all_oso change is
correct. The existing code here is hard for me to follow. One goal
of this sort of automated reference counting, though, is to make it
more difficult to make logic errors; so hopefully the code is clear
now.

This applies the second part of GDB's End of Year Procedure, which

gdb/ChangeLog:
Update copyright year range in all GDB files.
With the previous change, value.location.address is only valid for
lval_memory. This patch restrict some checking on value.lval on
using address. Since we have a check on VALUE_VAL in
set_value_address, we need to set VALUE_VAL properly before
set_value_address too.

This makes these flag types be "enum flag" types. The benefit is
making use of C++'s stronger typing -- mixing the flags types by
mistake errors at compile time.
This caught one old bug in symbol_file_add_main_1 already, fixed by
this patch as well:
@@ -1318,7 +1326,7 @@ symbol_file_add_main_1 (const char *args, int from_tty, int flags)

reinit_frame_cache ();
- if ((flags & SYMFILE_NO_READ) == 0)
+ if ((add_flags & SYMFILE_NO_READ) == 0)
set_initial_language ();
}
Above, "flags" are objfile flags, not symfile_add_flags. So that was
actually checking for "flag & OBJF_PSYMTABS_READ", which has the same
value as SYMFILE_NO_READ...
I moved the flags definitions to separate files to break circular
dependencies.

On various GNU Elf architectures, including AArch64, ARM, s390/s390x,
ppc32/64, and sparc32/64, the dynamic loader passes HWCAP as a parameter
to each ifunc resolver. Currently there is an open glibc Bugzilla that
requests this to be generalized to all architectures:
https://sourceware.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=19766
And various ifunc resolvers already rely on receiving HWCAP. Currently
GDB always calls an ifunc resolver without any arguments; thus the
resolver may receive garbage, and based on that, the resolver may decide
to return a function that is not suited for the given platform.
This patch always passes HWCAP to ifunc resolvers, even on systems where
the dynamic loader currently behaves otherwise. The rationale is
that (1) the dynamic loader may get adjusted on those systems as well in
the future; (2) passing an unused argument should not cause a problem
with existing resolvers; and (3) the logic is much simpler without such
a distinction.
gdb/ChangeLog:
* elfread.c (auxv.h): New include.
(elf_gnu_ifunc_resolve_addr): Pass HWCAP to ifunc resolver.
gdb/testsuite/ChangeLog:
* gdb.base/gnu-ifunc-lib.c (resolver_hwcap): New external
variable declaration.
(gnu_ifunc): Add parameter hwcap. Store it in resolver_hwcap.
* gdb.base/gnu-ifunc.c (resolver_hwcap): New global variable.
* gdb.base/gnu-ifunc.exp: Add test to verify that the resolver
received HWCAP as its argument.
Currently, we always re-set all locations of all breakpoints. This
commit makes us re-set only locations of the current program space.
If we loaded symbols to a program space (e.g., "file" command or some
shared library was loaded), GDB must run through all breakpoints and
determine if any new locations need to be added to the breakpoint.
However, there's no reason to recreate locations for _other_ program
spaces, as those haven't changed.
Similarly, when we create a new inferior, through e.g., a fork, GDB
must run through all breakpoints and determine if any new locations
need to be added to the breakpoint. There's no reason to destroy the
locations of the parent inferior and other inferiors. We know those
won't change.
In addition to being inneficient, resetting breakpoints of inferiors
that are currently running is problematic, because:
- some targets can't read memory while the inferior is running.
- the inferior might exit while we're re-setting its breakpoints,
which may confuse prologue skipping.
I went through all the places where we call breakpoint_re_set, and it
seems to me that all can be changed to only re-set locations of the
current program space.
The patch that reversed threads order in "info threads" etc. happened
to make gdb.threads/fork-plus-thread.exp expose this problem when
testing on x86/-m32. The problem was latent and masked out by chance
by the code-cache:
https://sourceware.org/ml/gdb-patches/2016-01/msg00213.html
Tested on x86-64 F20, native (-m64/-m32) and extended-remote
gdbserver.

+PASS: gdb.threads/fork-plus-threads.exp: detach-on-fork=off: inferior 1 exited

This commit changes GDB to track thread numbers per-inferior. Then,
if you're debugging multiple inferiors, GDB displays
"inferior-num.thread-num" instead of just "thread-num" whenever it
needs to display a thread:
(gdb) info inferiors
Num Description Executable
1 process 6022 /home/pedro/gdb/tests/threads
* 2 process 6037 /home/pedro/gdb/tests/threads
(gdb) info threads

(gdb)
...
(gdb) thread 1.1
[Switching to thread 1.1 (Thread 0x7ffff7fc2740 (LWP 8155))]
(gdb)
...
etc.
You can still use "thread NUM", in which case GDB infers you're
referring to thread NUM of the current inferior.
The $_thread convenience var and Python's InferiorThread.num attribute
are remapped to the new per-inferior thread number. It's a backward
compatibility break, but since it only matters when debugging multiple
inferiors, I think it's worth doing.
Because MI thread IDs need to be a single integer, we keep giving
threads a global identifier, _in addition_ to the per-inferior number,
and make MI always refer to the global thread IDs. IOW, nothing
changes from a MI frontend's perspective.
Similarly, since Python's Breakpoint.thread and Guile's
breakpoint-thread/set-breakpoint-thread breakpoint methods need to
work with integers, those are adjusted to work with global thread IDs
too. Follow up patches will provide convenient means to access
threads' global IDs.
To avoid potencially confusing users (which also avoids updating much
of the testsuite), if there's only one inferior and its ID is "1",
IOW, the user hasn't done anything multi-process/inferior related,
then the "INF." part of thread IDs is not shown. E.g,.:
(gdb) info inferiors

This patch converts the code base to use the new struct event_location
API being introduced. This patch preserves the current functionality and
adds no new features.
The "big picture" API usage introduced by this patch may be illustrated
with a simple exmaple. Where previously developers would write:
void
my_command (char *arg, int from_tty)
{
create_breakpoint (..., arg, ...);
...
}
one now uses:
void
my_command (char *arg, int from_tty)
{
struct event_locaiton *location;
struct cleanup *back_to;
location = string_to_event_locaiton (&arg, ...);
back_to = make_cleanup_delete_event_location (location);
create_breakpoint (..., location, ...);
do_cleanups (back_to);
}
Linespec-decoding functions (now called location-decoding) such as
decode_line_full no longer skip argument pointers over processed input.
That functionality has been moved into string_to_event_location as
demonstrated above.

In C, we can forward declare static structure instances. That doesn't
work in C++ though. C++ treats these as definitions. So then the
compiler complains about symbol redefinition, like:
src/gdb/elfread.c:1569:29: error: redefinition of ‘const sym_fns elf_sym_fns_lazy_psyms’
src/gdb/elfread.c:53:29: error: ‘const sym_fns elf_sym_fns_lazy_psyms’ previously declared here
The intent of static here is naturally to avoid making these objects
visible outside the compilation unit. The equivalent in C++ would be
to instead define the objects in the anonymous namespace. But given
that it's desirable to leave the codebase compiling as both C and C++
for a while, this just makes the objects extern.
(base_breakpoint_ops is already declared in breakpoint.h, so we can
just remove the forward declare from breakpoint.c)
