I grew a bit tired of using ptid_get_{lwp,pid,tid} and friends, so I decided to
make it a bit easier to use by making it a proper class. The fields are now
private, so it's not possible to change a ptid_t field by mistake.
The new methods of ptid_t map to existing functions/practice like this:
ptid_t (pid, lwp, tid) -> ptid_build (pid, lwp, tid)
ptid_t (pid) -> pid_to_ptid (pid)
ptid.is_pid () -> ptid_is_pid (ptid)
ptid == other -> ptid_equal (ptid, other)
ptid != other -> !ptid_equal (ptid, other)
ptid.pid () -> ptid_get_pid (ptid)
ptid.lwp_p () -> ptid_lwp_p (ptid)
ptid.lwp () -> ptid_get_lwp (ptid)
ptid.tid_p () -> ptid_tid_p (ptid)
ptid.tid () -> ptid_get_tid (ptid)
ptid.matches (filter) -> ptid_match (ptid, filter)
I've replaced the implementation of the existing functions with calls to
the new methods. People are encouraged to gradually switch to using the
ptid_t methods instead of the functions (or we can change them all in
one pass eventually).
Also, I'm not sure if it's worth it (because of ptid_t's relatively
small size), but I have made the functions and methods take ptid_t
arguments by const reference instead of by value.

with null_ptid.
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.
It's best that we standardize on process_stratum targets using the
ptid.lwp field to store thread ids. The idea being leave the ptid.tid
field free for any thread_stratum target that might want to sit on
top. This patch adds a comment in that direction to struct ptid's
definition.

* common/ptid.h (struct ptid): Mention that process_stratum
targets should prefer ptid.lwp.
The ptid_t contructors, accessors and predicates are documented in
_three_ places, and each place uses a different wording.
E.g, the descriptions in the .c file of the new ptid_lwp_p, ptid_tid_p
weren't updated in the final revision like the descriptions in the .h
file were. Clearly, switching to a style that has a single central
description avoids such issues.
Worse, some of the existing descriptions are plain wrong, such as:
/* Attempt to find and return an existing ptid with the given PID, LWP,
and TID components. If none exists, create a new one and return
that. */
ptid_t ptid_build (int pid, long lwp, long tid);
The function does nothing that complicated. It's just a simple
constructor.
So this gets rid of all the unnecessary descriptions, leaving only the
ones near the function declarations in the header file, and
fixes/clarifies those that remain.

2013-10-04 Pedro Alves <palves@redhat.com>
* common/ptid.c (null_ptid, minus_one_ptid, ptid_build)
(pid_to_ptid, ptid_get_pid, ptid_get_lwp, ptid_get_tid)
(ptid_equal, ptid_is_pid, ptid_lwp_p, ptid_tid_p): Replace
describing comments with references to ptid.h.
* common/ptid.h: Remove intro description of constructors,
accessors and predicates.
(struct ptid): Reformat.
(minus_one_ptid, ptid_build, pid_to_ptid, ptid_get_pid)
(ptid_get_lwp, ptid_get_tid, ptid_equal, ptid_is_pid): Change
describing comments.
Two modifications:
1. The addition of 2013 to the copyright year range for every file;
2. The use of a single year range, instead of potentially multiple
year ranges, as approved by the FSF.
