I have the goal of "poisoning" the XNEW/xfree-family of functions, so
that we catch their usages with non-POD types. A few things need to be
fixed in the mean time, this is one.
The common lwp code in linux-nat.c and gdbserver/linux-low.c xfrees the
private lwp data of type arch_lwp_info. However, that type is opaque
from its point of view, as its defined differently in each arch-specific
implementation. This trips on the std::is_pod<T> check, since the
compiler can't tell whether the type is POD or not if it doesn't know
about it.
My initial patch [1] made a class hierarchy with a virtual destructor.
However, as Pedro pointed out, we only have one native architecture at
the time built in gdb and gdbserver, so that's overkill. Instead, we
can move the responsibility of free'ing arch_lwp_info to the arch code
(which is also the one that allocated it in the first place). This is
what this patch does.
Also, I had the concern that if we wanted to use C++ features in these
structures, we would have a problem with the one-definition rule.
However, since a build will only have one version of arch_lwp_info,
that's not a problem.
There are changes in arch-specific files, I was only able to built-test
this patch with the following cross-compilers:
aarch64-linux-gnu
alpha-linux-gnu
arm-linux-gnueabihf
hppa-linux-gnu
m68k-linux-gnu
mips64el-linux-gnuabi64
powerpc64-linux-gnu
s390x-linux-gnu
sh4-linux-gnu
sparc64-linux-gnu
x86_64-linux-gnu
x86_64-w64-mingw32
A buildbot run didn't find any regression.

This applies the second part of GDB's End of Year Procedure, which
updates the copyright year range in all of GDB's files.
gdb/ChangeLog:
Update copyright year range in all GDB files.
GLIBC BZ#20311 [1] proc_service.h install patch also remove 'const'
attributes from ps_get_thread_area and comment #15 discuss why to remove
the const attribute (basically since it a callback with the struct
ps_prochandle owned by the client it should be able to modify it if
it the case).
On default build this is not the issue and current g++ does not trigger
any issue with this mismatch declaration. However, on some bootstrap
build configuration where gdbserver is build with gcc instead this
triggers:
error: conflicting types for 'ps_get_thread_area'
This patch fixes it by syncing the declaration with GLIBC.

With the kernle fix <http://lists.infradead.org/pipermail/linux-arm-kernel/2015-July/356511.html>,
aarch64 GDB is able to read the base of thread area of 32-bit arm
program through NT_ARM_TLS.
This patch is to teach both GDB and GDBserver to read the base of
thread area correctly in the multi-arch case. A new function
aarch64_ps_get_thread_area is added, and is shared between GDB and
GDBserver.
With this patch applied, the following fails in multi-arch testing
(GDB is aarch64 but the test cases are arm) are fixed,
-FAIL: gdb.threads/tls-nodebug.exp: thread local storage
-FAIL: gdb.threads/tls-shared.exp: print thread local storage variable

This patch is to fixup the siginfo_t when aarch64 gdb or gdbserver
read from or write to the arm inferior. It is to convert the
"struct siginfo_t" between aarch64 and arm, which is quite mechanical.
