I noticed that the Python breakpoint documentation was ordered a bit
oddly. It documented the constructor; then the stop method; then the
watchpoint constants (used for the constructor); then various other
methods and attributes; then the other constants used by the
constructor; and then finally some more methods and attributes.
This patch rearranges the node a little to move the constants to just
after the constructor and before the other methods and attributes.

PR cli/18053 concerns a couple of minor bugs in the JIT debuginfo
support. First, jit-reader-load should use filename completion and
support tilde expansion. Second, the help for jit-reader-unload is
incorrect. While working on this I also realized that
jit-reader-unload should use the no-op completer, so I've included
that as well.
Built and regtested on x86-64 Fedora 23. A completer test for
jit-reader-load is included, but not a tilde-expansion test, as I
couldn't think of a reliable way to test that.

Address issues with the disassembly of the NAL assembly idiom and R6
instruction introduced with commit 7361da2c95 ("Add support for MIPS
R6.") and then further tweaked with commit b9121b573e ("Add in a JALRC
alias and fix the NAL instruction."). As from R6 this instruction has
replaced the encoding of `bltzal $0, . + 4' as the solely supported form
of the former BLTZAL instruction for the regular MIPS ISA.
The instruction is marked as an alias only in our regular MIPS opcode
table, making it fail to disassemble in R6 code if the `no-aliases'
machine option has been passed to `objdump':
$ cat test.s
.text
foo:
nal
$ as -mips64r6 -o test.o test.s
$ objdump -dr --prefix-addresses --show-raw-insn -M no-aliases test.o
nal.o: file format elf32-tradbigmips
Disassembly of section .text:
00000000 <foo> 04100000 0x4100000
...
$
This is because the `bltzal' entry has been marked as pre-R6 only in the
opcode table and there is no other opcode pattern to match.
Additionally the changes referred made NAL replace the equivalent
`bltzal $0, . + 4' instruction in disassembly, unless the `no-aliases'
machine option has been used, in legacy code. Seeing NAL, especially in
its updated form lacking the branch target argument, in the disassembly
of such code may be confusing to people. This is because unlike with
EHB only used in R2 and newer code -- the machine encoding of which we
anyway always disassemble to its corresponding current architecture's
mnemonic rather than its legacy meaning of `sll $0, $0, 3' -- BLTZAL has
been indeed used in legacy code. Even though `bltzal $0, . + 8' and its
machine code encoding (0x04100001) -- which is not equivalent to NAL and
still disassembles as BLTZAL -- has been the predominant form as opposed
to NAL's `bltzal $0, . + 4' (0x04100000), it makes sense to always keep
the old form in disassembly, while still accepting `nal' in assembly.
Remove the alias marking then from the the `nal' instruction pattern,
making it always match for R6 code, even with the `no-aliases' option.
And move the entry beyond the `bltzal' entry, making the latter one take
precedence for legacy binary code, while letting the former still match
any `nal' mnemonic in source code assembled for a legacy target.
Add a suitable test case to the GAS test suite. While the change
affects the disassembler more than the assembler, so placing the test
case in the binutils test suite might be more appropriate, the intent is
also to verify that `nal' is still accepted by GAS for legacy targets,
plus we have test infrastructure available in the GAS test suite for
automatic multiple ISA level testing, which we lack from the binutils
framework.

PR python/19293 notes that when a Python unwinder is disabled, the
frame cache is not invalidated. This means that disabling an unwinder
doesn't have any immediate effect -- but in my experience it's often
the case that I want to enable or disable an unwinder in order to see
what happens.
This patch adds a new gdb.invalidate_cached_frames function and
arranges for the relevant bits of library code to call it. I've only
partially documented this function, considering a warning sufficient
without going into all the reasons ordinary code should not call it.
The name of the new function was taken from a comment in frame.h next
to reinit_frame_cache.
No new test as I think the updates to the existing test are sufficient
to show that the code is working as intended.

MIPS nop-insertion code, add -mfix-vr4130 [5/11]"), and remove a call to
`install_insn' from `append_insn', which as from that change has become
redundant. This is because such a call, to place an instruction's bit
pattern in output, is already made from `move_insn', called from
`add_relaxed_insn' or `add_fixed_insn' as appropriate, either of which
now always is and has to be made from `append_insn' before the repeated
call to `install_insn' is made. Previously the place where this second
invocation is made was the only one where the output stream was updated,
although the update was made inline rather than with a function call.
Remove the repeated call then, to reclaim some performance.

gdb/ChangeLog:
* cp-namespace.c (cp_lookup_bare_symbol): Initialize
lang_this.symbol.
Using the default lookup for the symbol "this" might lead to segmentation
fault in GDB.
Some languages, e.g. Fortran, use as default lookup routine the C++
routines.
For those languages "this" can be the instance of a class or even the
definition of a class.
When an instance of a class having the name "this" is evaluated
in GDB a segmentation fault was observed.
As example of the issue take into consideration the Fortran code:
type foo
real :: a
type(bar) :: x
character*7 :: b
end type foo
type(foo) :: this
Issue appears when evaluating the variable "this" in GDB.
Within the language definition structure there is a field that represents
the name of the special symbol used for the C++ "this" for the language
being described.
The fix presented here takes into account the aforementioned field. In the
case the aforementioned field is NULL "this" is not represented in the
language described and the lookup should return a null_block_symbol.

This causes a problem when testing with the native-gdbserver board, when
the binary has the same name as the test. When gdb_remote_download is
called to upload the compiled binary, the implementation for
native-gdbserver copies it in the standard output directory (in
outputs/gdb.ada/formatted_ref). However, there is already a directory
named formatted_ref in there, so the copy fails and gdbserver isn't able
to load the binary.
This patch bypasses the problem by removing the extra directory level.
The compiled binary will already be in its final location in the
standard output directory, so the copy will effectively be a no-op.
