This patch fixes PR16508, which is about MI "-trace-find frame-number 0"
behaves differently from CLI "tfind 0". In CLI, we check both
status->running and status->filename, but in MI, we only check
status->running, which looks wrong to me. This patch moves the code
of checking to a new function check_trace_running, and use it in
both CLI and MI.
This patch also adds a test case pr16508.exp, which fails without this
fix, and passes with the fix applied.

I stumbled upon this when writing a patch to infrun.c, that made
handle_inferior_event & co fill in the cache before breakpoints were
removed from the target. Recall that wait_for_inferior flushes the
dcache for every event. So in that case, always-inserted mode was not
necessary to trigger this. It's just a convenient way to expose the
issue.
The dcache works at the raw memory level. We need to update it
whenever memory is written, no matter what kind of target memory
object was originally passed down by the caller. The issue is that
the dcache update code isn't reached when a caller explicitly writes
raw memory. Breakpoint insertion/removal is one such case --
mem-break.c uses target_write_read_memory/target_write_raw_memory.
The fix is to move the dcache update code from memory_xfer_partial_1
to raw_memory_xfer_partial so that it's always reachable.
When we do that, we can actually simplify a series of things.
memory_xfer_partial_1 no longer needs to handle writes for any kind of
memory object, and therefore dcache_xfer_memory no longer needs to
handle writes either. So the latter (dcache_xfer_memory) and its
callees can be simplified to only care about reads. While we're
touching dcache_xfer_memory's prototype, might as well rename it to
reflect that fact that it only handles reads, and make it follow the
new target_xfer_status/xfered_len style. This made me notice that
dcache_xfer_memory loses the real error status if a memory read fails:
we could have failed to read due to TARGET_XFER_E_UNAVAILABLE, for
instance, but we always return TARGET_XFER_E_IO, hence the FIXME note.
I felt that fixing that fell out of the scope of this patch.
Currently dcache_xfer_memory handles the case of a write failing. The
whole cache line is invalidated when that happens. However,
dcache_update, the sole mechanism for handling writes that will remain
after the patch, does not presently handle that scenario. That's a
bug. The patch makes it handle that, by passing down the
target_xfer_status status from the caller, so that it can better
decide what to do itself. While I was changing the function's
prototype, I constified the myaddr parameter, getting rid of the need
for the cast as seen in its existing caller.
Tested on x86_64 Fedora 17, native and gdbserver.

This patch moves the probe data from the objfile to the per-BFD

This changes the probes to be independent of the program space.
After this, when a probe's address is needed, it is determined by
applying offsets at the point of use.
This introduces a bound_probe object, similar to bound minimal
symbols. Objects of this type are used when it's necessary to pass a
probe and its corresponding objfile.
This removes the backlink from probe to objfile, which was primarily
used to fetch the architecture to use.
This adds a get_probe_address function which calls a probe method to
compute the probe's relocated address. Similarly, it adds an objfile
parameter to the semaphore methods so they can do the relocation
properly as well.

Starting with DWARF version 4, the description of the DW_AT_high_pc
attribute was amended to say:
if it is of class constant, the value is an unsigned integer offset
which when added to the low PC gives the address of the first
location past the last instruction associated with the entity.
A change was made in Apr 27th, 2012 to reflect that change:
| commit 91da14142c
| Author: Mark Wielaard <mjw@redhat.com>
| Date: Fri Apr 27 18:55:19 2012 +0000
|
| * dwarf2read.c (dwarf2_get_pc_bounds): Check DW_AT_high_pc form to
| see whether it is an address or a constant offset from DW_AT_low_pc.
| (dwarf2_record_block_ranges): Likewise.
| (read_partial_die): Likewise.
Unfortunately, this new interpretation is now used regardless of
the CU's DWARF version. It turns out that one of WindRiver's compilers
(FTR: Diabdata 4.4) is generating DWARF version 2 info with
DW_AT_high_pc attributes improperly using the data4 form. Because of
that, we miscompute all high PCs incorrectly. This leads to a lot of
symtabs having overlapping ranges, which in turn causes havoc in
pc-to-symtab-and-line translations.
One visible effect is when inserting a breakpoint on a given function:
(gdb) b world
Breakpoint 1 at 0x4005c4
The source location of the breakpoint is missing. The output should be:
(gdb) b world
Breakpoint 1 at 0x4005c8: file dw2-rel-hi-pc-world.c, line 24.
What happens in this case is that the pc-to-SAL translation first
starts be trying to find the symtab associated to our PC using
each symtab's ranges. Because of the high_pc miscomputation,
many symtabs end up matching, and the heuristic trying to select
the most probable one unfortunately returns one that is unrelated
(it really had no change in this case to do any better). Once we
have the wrong symtab, the start searching the associated linetable,
where the addresses are correct, thus finding no match, and therefore
no SAL.
This patch is an attempt at handling the situation as gracefully
as we can, without guarantees. It introduces a new function
"attr_value_as_address" which uses the correct accessor for getting
the value of a given attribute. It then adjust the code throughout
this unit to use this function instead of assuming that addresses always
have the DW_FORM_addr format.
It also fixes the original issue of miscomputing the high_pc
by limiting the new interpretation of constant form DW_AT_high_pc
attributes to units using DWARF version 4 or later.

Right now the "file" command will discard the exec_bfd and then
possibly open a new one.
If this ends up reopening the same file, it can cause needless work by
gdb -- destroying all the per-BFD data just to re-read it again.
This patch changes the code to hold a reference to the old exec_bfd
while opening the new one.
The possible downside of this is a higher peak memory use.

We only skip the work if the file is ELF+DWARF. If it has stabs or
mdebug sections, then I think extra information is computed during the
minsym creation pass; and so we must still repeat it. Eventually even
this will go away, once all symbol types have switched to being
progspace-independent. In the meantime this has no negative effect --
it is just a missing optimization for a small set of users.
This change also required a somewhat non-obvious change to the OBJSTAT
accounting code. If a symbol reader skips re-reading minimal symbols,
then the corresponding OBJSTAT will not be updated. This leads to a
test failure in gdb.base/maint.exp.
To fix this, I've moved the needed stat field out of objfile and into
the per-BFD object.

* elfread.c (elf_read_minimal_symbols): Return early if
minimal symbols have already been read. Add "ei" parameter.
(elf_symfile_read): Call elf_read_minimal_symbols earlier.
* minsyms.c (prim_record_minimal_symbol_full): Update.
* objfiles.h (struct objstats) <n_minsyms>: Move...
(struct objfile_per_bfd_storage) <n_minsyms>: ... here.
* symmisc.c (print_objfile_statistics): Update.
This is just a simple refactoring in elfread.c to split out the
minsym-reading code into its own function.
2014-02-26 Tom Tromey <tromey@redhat.com>
* elfread.c (elf_read_minimal_symbols): New function, from
elf_symfile_read.
(elf_symfile_read): Call it.
Now that minimal symbols are independent of the program space, we can
move them to the per-BFD object. This lets us save memory in the
multi-inferior case; and, once the symbol readers are updated, time.
The other prerequisite for this move is that all the objects referred
to by the minimal symbols have a lifetime at least as long as the
per-BFD object. I think this is satisfied partially by this patch
(moving the copied names there) and partially by earlier patches
moving the demangled name hash.
This patch contains a bit of logic to avoid creating new minimal
symbols if they have already been read for a given BFD. This allows
us to avoid trying to update all the symbol readers for this
condition. At first glance this may seem like a hack, but some symbol
readers mix psym and minsym reading, and would require logic just like
this regardless -- and it is simpler and less error-prone to just do
the work in a central spot.

This removes the runtime offsets from minsyms. Instead, these offsets
will now be applied whenever the minsym's address is computed.
This patch redefines MSYMBOL_VALUE_ADDRESS to actually use the offsets
from the given objfile. Then, it updates all the symbol readers,
changing them so that they do not add in the section offset when
creating the symbol.
This change also lets us remove relocation of minsyms from
objfile_relocate1 and also msymbols_sort.

This changes MSYMBOL_VALUE_ADDRESS to be an rvalue. In a later patch
we change this macro to compute its value; this patch introduces a
setter to make the break a bit cleaner.

SET_MSYMBOL_VALUE_ADDRESS.

SET_MSYMBOL_VALUE_ADDRESS.
* symtab.h (MSYMBOL_VALUE_ADDRESS): Expand to an rvalue.
(SET_MSYMBOL_VALUE_ADDRESS): New macro.
This introduces minimal_symbol_upper_bound and changes various bits of
code to use it. Since this function is intimately tied to the
implementation of minimal symbol tables, I believe it belongs in
minsyms.c.
The new function is extracted from find_pc_partial_function_gnu_ifunc.
This isn't a "clean" move because the old function interleaved the
caching and the computation; but this doesn't make sense for the new
code.
