Functions remote_read_bytes and get_core_siginfo are the callees of
target to_xfer_partial interface, so argument 'len' should be changed
to type ULONGEST.

Hi,
This patch changes the type of 'len' from ssize_t to ULONGEST.
At the beginning Siddhesh Poyarekar proposed this patch
[PATCH] Memory reads and writes should have size_t length
https://sourceware.org/ml/gdb-patches/2012-05/msg01073.html
to change type of 'len' to size_t. However, after Jan's review, we
decide to change it to ssize_t, because callers of these functions
may pass signed type to them.
AFAICS, the target layer is a boundary. In one side, we pass size_t
or ssize_t to target related APIs, and in the other side, the
implementation side, we used LONGEST (ULONGEST in latest code) because
of to_xfer_partial.
Since remote_write_bytes_aux and remote_write_bytes belong to the
implementation of remote target, we should use ULONGEST for len, IMO.
Regression tested on x86_64-linux. Is it OK?

This fixes a bug in FrameDecorator.py.
FrameVars seems to assume that Frame.block can return None if there is
no block. However, it actually throws an exception.
I saw this bug while developing a frame filter, but unfortunately I
don't know how to reproduce it. It seems to me that the SAL tests in
_is_limited_frame should exclude the bad cases; and in my attempts to
write a test they do.
Nevertheless I think the fix is reasonably obvious and ought to go in.

The trace-specific test case 'entry-values' concludes fairly late in
the process that this platform doesn't support trace. Before that,
there are some platform specifics that don't work on s390x. The fix
addresses two aspects:
(1) Removal of an excess space character in the regex for the
disassembly. This is needed when there is a function alignment
gap, because then the hex address is immediately followed by a
colon, like in the first 'nopr' line below:
(gdb) disassemble foo+50,+10
Dump of assembler code from 0x32 to 0x3c:
0x0000000000000032 <foo+50>: br %r4

0x0000000000000038 <bar+0>: stmg %r11,%r15,88(%r15)
End of assembler dump.
(2) Handling for the s390-specific call instruction.
gdb/testsuite/ChangeLog:
* gdb.trace/entry-values.exp: Remove excess space character from
regex patterns. Handle s390 call instruction.
On ppc64-linux a function symbol does not point to code, but to the
function descriptor. Thus the previous change for this test case
broke it:
https://sourceware.org/ml/gdb-patches/2014-01/msg00275.html
This patch reverts to the original method, re-introducing '_start'
symbols. In addition, it adds sufficient alignment before the label,
such that the label never points into an alignment gap.
gdb/testsuite/ChangeLog:
* gdb.dwarf2/dw2-dir-file-name.c (FUNC): Insert alignment and

When upstream gcc is given a command line with the "-g" option after
"-g3", it doesn't generate a ".debug_macro" section. This is because
the last option wins, thus downgrading the debug level again. Without
any macro debug information in the executable, info-macros.exp
obviously produces many failures.
Since the "-g" option is appended by DejaGnu's target_compile whenever
the "debug" option is set, the fix just removes that option.
gdb/testsuite/ChangeLog:
* gdb.base/info-macros.exp: Remove "debug" from the compile

An assignment to dot in an output section that allocates space of
course keeps the output section. Here, I'm changing the behaviour for
assignments that don't allocate space. The idea is not so much to
allow people to force output of an empty section with ". = .", but
to fix cases where an otherwise empty section has padding added by an
alignment expression that changes with relaxation or .eh_frame
editing. Such a section might have zero size before relaxation and so
be stripped incorrectly.

After resolving a versioned reference, foo@VER1, to a default versioned
definition, foo@@VER1, from a shared object, we also merge it with
the existing regular default symbol definition, foo. When foo is IFUNC
and foo@@VER1 aren't, we will merge 2 incompatible definitions. This
patch avoids merging foo@@VER1 definition with foo definition if
one is IFUNC and the other isn't.
This is to avoid expressions like: %hi(foo) + 1, which will
not do what you expect. The complex relocations can handle it,
but the internal fixups can't.

Currently, xtensa code using the Linux ptrace interface only include
sys/ptrace.h. This file comes from the C library (glibc and uClibc,
at least), and includes a declaration of the ptrace() functions, along
with some cross architecture constants that are mostly copied from the
file located at include/uapi/linux/ptrace.h in recent Linux kernels.
For xtensa specific constants like PTRACE_GETXTREGS and
PTRACE_SETXTREGS the asm/ptrace.h include from the Linux kernel UAPI
is needed. The code in gdbserver xtensa specific part doesn't call
ptrace() directly, so we can remove the unneeded sys/ptrace.h include.
The gdb xtensa specific code needs both headers, since it calls
ptrace().
