As part of the preparation necessary for my upcoming task, I'd like to
propose that we turn gdb_environ into a class. The approach taken
here is simple: the class gdb_environ contains everything that is
needed to manipulate the environment variables. These variables are
stored in an std::vector<char *>, which can be converted to a 'char
**' and passed as argument to functions that need it.
The usage has not changed much. As per Pedro's suggestion, this class
uses a static factory method initialization. This means that when an
instance is created, it is initially empty. When needed, it has to be
initialized using the static method 'from_host_environ'.
As mentioned before, this is a preparation for an upcoming work that I
will be posting in the next few weeks or so. For that work, I'll
probably create another data structure that will contain all the
environment variables that were set by the user using the 'set
environment' command, because I'll need access to them. This will be
much easier with the class-ification of gdb_environ.
As noted, this has been regression-tested with the new version of
environ.exp and no regressions were found.

Because we are compiling .c files containing C++ code, clang++ complains
with:
clang: error: treating 'c' input as 'c++' when in C++ mode, this behavior is deprecated
If renaming all the source files to .cpp is out of the question, an
alternative is to pass "-x c++" to convince the compiler that we are
really compiling C++. It works fine with GCC too.
gdb/ChangeLog:
* Makefile.in (COMPILE.pre): Add "-x c++".
gdb/gdbserver/ChangeLog:
* Makefile.in (COMPILE.pre): Add "-x c++".
This is the most important (and the biggest, sorry) patch of the
series. It moves fork_inferior from gdb/fork-child.c to
nat/fork-inferior.c and makes all the necessary adjustments to both
GDB and gdbserver to make sure everything works OK.
There is no "most important change" with this patch; all changes are
made in a progressive way, making sure that gdbserver had the
necessary features while not breaking GDB at the same time.
I decided to go ahead and implement a partial support for starting the
inferior with a shell on gdbserver, although the full feature comes in
the next patch. The user won't have the option to disable the
startup-with-shell, and also won't be able to change which shell
gdbserver will use (other than setting the $SHELL environment
variable, that is).
Everything is working as expected, and no regressions were present
during the tests.

* inferiors.c (switch_to_thread): New function.
This commit moves a few bits responsible for dealing with inferior job
control from GDB to common/, which makes them available to gdbserver.
This is necessary for the upcoming patches that will share
fork_inferior et al between GDB and gdbserver.
We move some parts of gdb/terminal.h to gdb/common/common-terminal.h,
especifically the code that checks terminal features and that are used
to set job_control accordingly.
After sharing parts of gdb/terminal.h, we also to share the two
functions on gdb/inflow.c that are going to be needed by the
fork_inferior rework. They are 'gdb_setpgid' and the new
'have_job_control'. I've also taken the opportunity to give a more
meaningful name to "inflow.c" on common/. Now it is called
"job-control.c" (thanks Pedro for the suggestion).

This patch adds one unit test for gdbarch methods register_to_value and
value_to_register. The test pass different combinations of {regnu, type}
to gdbarch_register_to_value and gdbarch_value_to_register. In order
to do the test, add a new function create_new_frame to create a fake
frame. It can be improved after we converted frame_info to class.
In order to isolate regcache (from target_ops operations on writing
registers, like target_store_registers), the sub-class of regcache in the
test override raw_write. Also, in order to get the right regcache from
get_thread_arch_aspace_regcache, the sub-class of regcache inserts itself
to current_regcache.

Due to my ongoing work to make it possible for gdbserver to start the
inferior using the shell, I had to share the fork_inferior function
under the "nat/" directory. In order to do that, I created a new file
and put the function there; however, this meant that I now had to
update some of the *.mh files (under "gdb/config") and add the new
file as a dependency to be built natively. Bleh...
After talking a bit to Pedro about this, the idea came up to write a
new "gdb/configure.nat" file, a la "gdb/configure.tgt", which would
concentrate all of the native settings for each host/system. I
decided to tackle this issue.
The patch is simple. All of the previous Makefile variables that were
being declared inside the *.mh files are now inside "gdb/Makefile.in",
and "gdb/configure" is responsible for AC_SUBST'ing them. The
definitions of these variables were put inside "gdb/configure.nat", so
now they're shell variables. For excerpts of Makefile code, one must
create a file under "gdb/config/${gdb_cpu_host}" and reference it on
the "nat_extra_makefile_frag" variable.
It should now be easier to update the native dependencies of hosts in
this single file.
This has been tested on x86_64 without regressions.

I left making inferior::detaching a bool to a separate patch, because
doing that makes a make_cleanup_restore_integer call in
infrun.c:prepare_for_detach no longer compile (passing a 'bool *' when
an 'int *' is expected). Since we want to get rid of cleanups anyway,
I looked at converting that to a scoped_restore. However,
prepare_for_detach wants to discard the cleanup on success, and
scoped_restore doesn't have an equivalent for that. So I added one --
I called it "release()" because it seems like a natural fit in the way
standard components call similarly-spirited methods, and, it's also
what the proposal for a generic scope guard calls it too, AFAICS:
http://www.open-std.org/jtc1/sc22/wg21/docs/papers/2014/n4189.pdf
I've added some scoped_guard unit tests, while at it.

I thought I'd add some unit tests to make sure gdb::optional behaved
correctly, and started writing some, but then thought/realized that
libstdc++ already has extensive testing for C++17 std::optional, which
gdb::optional is a subset of, and thought why bother writing something
from scratch. So I tried copying over a subset of libstdc++'s tests
(that ones that cover the subset supported by gdb::optional), and was
positively surprised that they mostly work OOTB. This did help shake
out a few bugs from what I was implementing in the previous patch to
gdb::optional. Still, it's a good chunk of code being copied over, so
if people dislike this copying/duplication, I can drop this patch.

As requested, I'm sending this as a separate patch because it is ready
to be included as-is.
The idea here is that both gdb/terminal.h and gdb/gdbserver/terminal.h
share the same code, which is responsible for setting a bunch of
defines on based on the presence of termios.h and a few other headers.
This simple patch just moves this common code to common/gdb_termios.h
and makes the necessary adjustments on both GDB and gdbserver so that
they can use this new header. It also implements the some header
checks on common/common.m4.
As a bonus, gdb/gdbserver/terminal.h can be removed because it's now
empty.
Built on x86_64, no regressions found.

The other day while working on the wchar_t patch, I had a bit of
trouble finding the DJGPP/go32 tdep bits. My initial reaction was
looking for a go32-specific tdep file, but there's none.
Confirmed that a --host=i586-pc-msdosdjgpp GDB still builds
successfully and includes the i386-go32-tdep.o object.
Confirmed that an --enable-targets=all build of GDB on x86-64
GNU/Linux includes the DJGPP/go32 bits too.

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.

A while ago, back when GDB was a C program, the sect_offset and
cu_offset types were made structs in order to prevent incorrect mixing
of those offsets. Now that we require C++11, we can make them
integers again, while keeping the safety, by exploiting "enum class".
We can add a bit more safety, even, by defining operators that the
types _should_ support, helping making the suspicious uses stand out
more.
Getting at the underlying type is done with the new to_underlying
function added by the previous patch, which also helps better spot
where do we need to step out of the safety net. Mostly, that's around
parsing the DWARF, and when we print the offset for complaint/debug
purposes. But there are other occasional uses.
Since we have to define the sect_offset/cu_offset types in a header
anyway, I went ahead and generalized/library-fied the idea of "offset"
types, making it trivial to add more such types if we find a use. See
common/offset-type.h and the DEFINE_OFFSET_TYPE macro.
I needed a couple generaly-useful preprocessor bits (e.g., yet another
CONCAT implementation), so I started a new common/preprocessor.h file.
I included units tests covering the "offset" types API. These are
mostly compile-time tests, using SFINAE to check that expressions that
shouldn't compile (e.g., comparing unrelated offset types) really are
invalid and would fail to compile. This same idea appeared in my
pending enum-flags revamp from a few months ago (though this version
is a bit further modernized compared to what I had posted), and I plan
on reusing the "check valid expression" bits added here in that
series, so I went ahead and defined the CHECK_VALID_EXPR macro in its
own header -- common/valid-expr.h. I think that's nicer regardless.
I was borderline between calling the new types "offset" types, or
"index" types, BTW. I stuck with "offset" simply because that's what
we're already calling them, mostly.

This commit adds a new function_view type. This type holds a
non-owning reference to a callable. It is meant to be used as
callback type of functions, instead of using the C-style pair of
function pointer and 'void *data' arguments. function_view allows
passing references to stateful function objects / lambdas with
captures as callbacks efficiently, while function pointer + 'void *'
does not.
See the intro in the new function-view.h header for more.

This patch adds one unit test, which disassemble one instruction for
every gdbarch if available. The test needs one valid instruction of
each gdbarch, and most of them are got from breakpoint instruction.
For the rest gdbarch whose breakpoint instruction isn't a valid
instruction, I copy one instruction from the gas/testsuite/gas/
directory.
I get the valid instruction of most gdbarch except ia64, mep, mips,
tic6x, and xtensa. People familiar with these arch should be easy
to extend the test.
In order to achieve "do the unit test for every gdbarch", I add
selftest-arch.[c,h], so that we can register a function pointer,
which has one argument gdbarch. selftest.c will iterate over all
gdbarches to call the registered function pointer.

gdb/ChangeLog:
Update copyright year range in all GDB files.
Since we don't use suffix rules nor implicit rules in gdb, we can
disable them. The advantage is a slightly faster make [1].
Here are some numbers about the speedup. I ran this on my trusty old
Intel Q6600, so the time numbers are probably higher than what you'd get
on any recent hardware. I ran "make" in the gdb/ directory of an
already built repository (configured with --enable-targets=all). I
recorded the time of execution (average of 5). I then ran "make -d" and
recorded the number of printed lines, which gives a rough idea of the
number of operations done.
I compared the following configurations, to see the impact of both the
empty .SUFFIXES target and the empty pattern rules, as well as running
"make -r", which can be considered the "ideal" case.
A - baseline
B - baseline + .SUFFIXES
C - baseline + pattern rules
D - baseline + .SUFFIXES + pattern rules
E - baseline + make -r
config | time (s) | "make -d"
-----------------------------
A | 5.74 | 2396643
B | 1.19 | 298469
C | 2.81 | 1266573
D | 1.13 | 245489
E | 1.01 | 163914
We can see that the empty .SUFFIXES target has a bigger impact than the
empty pattern rules, but still it doesn't hurt to disable the implicit
pattern rules as well.
There are still some mentions of implicit rules I can't get rid of in
the "make -d" output. For example, it's trying to build .c files from
.w files:
Looking for an implicit rule for '/home/simark/src/binutils-gdb/gdb/infrun.c'.
Trying pattern rule with stem 'infrun'.
Trying implicit prerequisite '/home/simark/src/binutils-gdb/gdb/infrun.w'.
and trying to build Makefile.in from a bunch of extensions:
Looking for an implicit rule for 'Makefile.in'.
Trying pattern rule with stem 'Makefile.in'.
Trying implicit prerequisite 'Makefile.in.o'.
Trying pattern rule with stem 'Makefile.in'.
Trying implicit prerequisite 'Makefile.in.c'.
Trying pattern rule with stem 'Makefile.in'.
Trying implicit prerequisite 'Makefile.in.cc'.
... many more ...
If somebody knows how to disable them, we can do it, but at this point
the returns are minimal, so it is not that important.
I verified that both in-tree and out-of-tree builds work.
[1] Switching from explicit rules to pattern rules for files in
subdirectories actually made it slower, so this is kind of a way to
redeem myself. But it the end it's faster than it was previously,
so it was all worth it. :)

This patch fixes a few problems with GDB's time handling.
#1 - It avoids problems with gnulib's C++ namespace support
On MinGW, the struct timeval that should be passed to gnulib's
gettimeofday replacement is incompatible with libiberty's
timeval_sub/timeval_add. That's because gnulib also replaces "struct
timeval" with its own definition, while libiberty expects the
system's.
E.g., in code like this:
gettimeofday (&prompt_ended, NULL);
timeval_sub (&prompt_delta, &prompt_ended, &prompt_started);
timeval_add (&prompt_for_continue_wait_time,
&prompt_for_continue_wait_time, &prompt_delta);
That's currently handled in gdb by not using gnulib's gettimeofday at
all (see common/gdb_sys_time.h), but that #undef hack won't work with
if/when we enable gnulib's C++ namespace support, because that mode
adds compile time warnings for uses of ::gettimeofday, which are hard
errors with -Werror.
#2 - But there's an elephant in the room: gettimeofday is not monotonic...
We're using it to:
a) check how long functions take, for performance analysis
b) compute when in the future to fire events in the event-loop
c) print debug timestamps
But that's exactly what gettimeofday is NOT meant for. Straight from
the man page:
~~~
The time returned by gettimeofday() is affected by
discontinuous jumps in the system time (e.g., if the system
administrator manually changes the system time). If you need a
monotonically increasing clock, see clock_gettime(2).
~~~
std::chrono (part of the C++11 standard library) has a monotonic clock
exactly for such purposes (std::chrono::steady_clock). This commit
switches to use that instead of gettimeofday, fixing all the issues
mentioned above.

I find the big file lists in the Makefiles a bit ugly and not very
practical. Since there are multiple filenames on each line (as much as
fits in 80 columns), it's not easy to add, remove or change a name in
the middle. As a result, we have a mix of long and short lines in no
particular order (ALL_TARGET_OBS is a good example).
I therefore suggest flattening the lists (one name per line) and keeping
them in alphabetical order. The diffs will be much clearer and merge
conflicts will be easier to resolve.
A nice (IMO) side-effect I observed is that the files are compiled
alphabetically by make, so it gives a rough idea of the progress of the
build.
I added a comment in gdb/Makefile.in to mention to keep the file lists
ordered, and gave the general guidelines on what order to respect. I
added a comment in other Makefiles which refers to gdb/Makefile.in, to
avoid duplication.
Running the patch through the buildbot found that gdb.base/default.exp
started to fail. The languages in the error message shown when typing
"set language" have changed order. We could probably improve gdb so
that it prints them in a stable order, regardless of the order of the
object list passed to the linked, but just fixing the test is easier for
now.
New in v2:
- Change ordering style, directories go at the end.
- Cleanup gdbserver's and data-directory's Makefile as well.
- Add comments at top of Makefiles about the ordering.
- Remove wrong trailing backslahes.
- Fix test gdb.base/default.exp.

* gdb.base/default.exp: Fix output of "set language".
A little oversight from my part, it caused the Makefile not to track
the dependencies from mi/*.c files.
gdb/ChangeLog:
* Makefile.in (%o: $(srcdir)/mi/%.c): Add missing POSTCOMPILE
step.
When adding a .c file in subdirectory (e.g. mi/), the current practice
is to add an explicit rule, such as:
mi-cmd-break.o: $(srcdir)/mi/mi-cmd-break.c
$(COMPILE) $(srcdir)/mi/mi-cmd-break.c
$(POSTCOMPILE)
I find it a bit verbose and cumbersome. Since we now require GNU make,
we can change those rules with pattern rules, one for each subdirectory.
For example, the following rule works for all files under mi:
%.o: $(srcdir)/mi/%.c
$(COMPILE) $<
$(POSTCOMPILE)
Those pattern rules assume that the source and target files have the
same stem (foo.c and foo.o). In one case, common-agent.o is generated
from common/agent.c, to avoid a conflict with the agent.o in gdb/. In
this case, I kept the explicit rule, which takes precedence over the
pattern rule. We could also rename common/agent.c to
common/common-agent.c to get rid of the special case and still avoid the
clash, as it is done with common/common-regcache.c, for example.
This strategy was the least intrusive I found, as it only requires
changing the rules, not the target names.
I also considered two other solutions, which I did not like because I
would have had to change target names a bit everywhere.
- Replicate the source directory structure in the build directory,
which would generate common/agent.o from common/agent.c. However,
something was not right with the dependency tracking (the .deps
directory). It's probably not hard to fix, but I did not
investigate further.
- Name the object files after the directory they are in, so that
common/agent.c would generate common_agent.c.
GDBserver can benefit from the same treatment, but I'll do it in another
patch.
Built-tested with --enable-targets=all.
New in v2:
- Regroup pattern rules for .c -> .o compilation in a single place.
- Add comment about common-agent.o.

As mentioned here [1], suffix rules are obsolete and have been
superseeded with pattern rules. People (myself included, before writing
this patch) are more likely to know what pattern rules are than suffix
rules.
AFAIK, .SUFFIXES targets are only used for those rules, and can be
removed as well.
New in v2:
- Replace rule in gdbserver/Makefile.in as well.

Since GNU make is now required to build GDB, we can remove everything
that checks whether the current make implemention is the GNU one or
not. I simply removed the @GMAKE_TRUE@ prefixes and removed the whole
lines that were prefixed with @GMAKE_FALSE@.
I removed the code in the configure scripts that set those variables.
I also removed the following bits from the configure scripts:
AC_CHECK_PROGS(MAKE, make): GNU make already defines a MAKE variable
internally to be used when invoking Makefiles recursively. I don't see
this variable being used anywhere else (in scripts for example), so I
think it's safe for removal.
AC_PROG_MAKE_SET: This macro defines a SET_MAKE output variable, which
is meant to be used in Makefiles to define the MAKE variable when
using an implementation of make that doesn't already define it.
Since we are now requiring GNU make, we don't need it anymore.
Plus, I don't see SET_MAKE being used anywhere, so I don't think it
was actually doing anything...
gdb/ChangeLog:
* Makefile.in: Remove @GMAKE_TRUE@ prefixes and removes lines
prefixed with @GMAKE_FALSE@. Update comment related to non-GNU

The fix is to replace YY_NULL with YY_NULLPTR via sed. With old bison,
YY_NULL becomes YY_NULLPTR; with new bison, YY_NULLPTR becomes
YY_NULLPTRPTR,

Use AX_CXX_COMPILE_STDCXX to detect if the compiler supports C++11,
and if -std=xxx switches are necessary to enable C++11.
We need to tweak AX_CXX_COMPILE_STDCXX a bit though. Pristine
upstream AX_CXX_COMPILE_STDCXX appends -std=gnu++11 to CXX directly.
That doesn't work for us, because the top level Makefile passes CXX
down to subdirs, and that overrides whatever gdb/Makefile may set CXX
to. The result would be that a make invocation from the build/gdb/
directory would use "g++ -std=gnu++11" as expected, while a make
invocation at the top level would not.
So instead of having AX_CXX_COMPILE_STDCXX set CXX directly, tweak it
to AC_SUBST a separate variable -- CXX_DIALECT -- and use '$(CXX)
(CXX_DIALECT)' to compile/link.
Confirmed that this enables C++11 starting with gcc 4.8, the first gcc
release with full C++11 support.
Also confirmed that configure errors out gracefully with older GCC
releases:

checking whether /opt/gcc-4.7/bin/g++ supports C++11 features with -std=gnu++11... no

If we need to revert back to making C++11 optional, all that's
necessary is to change the "mandatory" to "optional" in configure.ac
and regenerate configure (both gdb and gdbserver).

If xmalloc fails allocating memory, usually because something tried a
huge allocation, like xmalloc(-1) or some such, GDB asks the user what
to do:
.../src/gdb/utils.c:1079: internal-error: virtual memory exhausted.
A problem internal to GDB has been detected,
further debugging may prove unreliable.
Quit this debugging session? (y or n)
If the user says "n", that throws a QUIT exception, which is caught by
one of the multiple CATCH(RETURN_MASK_ALL) blocks somewhere up the
stack.
The default implementations of operator new / operator new[] call
malloc directly, and on memory allocation failure throw
std::bad_alloc. Currently, if that happens, since nothing catches it,
the exception escapes out of main, and GDB aborts from unhandled
exception.
This patch replaces the default operator new variants with versions
that, just like xmalloc:
#1 - Raise an internal-error on memory allocation failure.
#2 - Throw a QUIT gdb_exception, so that the exact same CATCH blocks
continue handling memory allocation problems.
A minor complication of #2 is that operator new can _only_ throw
std::bad_alloc, or something that extends it:
void* operator new (std::size_t size) throw (std::bad_alloc);
That means that if we let a gdb QUIT exception escape from within
operator new, the C++ runtime aborts due to unexpected exception
thrown.
So to bridge the gap, this patch adds a new gdb_quit_bad_alloc
exception type that inherits both std::bad_alloc and gdb_exception,
and throws _that_.
If we decide that we should be catching memory allocation errors in
fewer places than all the places we currently catch them (everywhere
we use RETURN_MASK_ALL currently), then we could change operator new
to throw plain std::bad_alloc then. But I'm considering such a change
as separate matter from this one -- it'd make sense to do the same to
xmalloc at the same time, for instance.
Meanwhile, this allows using new/new[] instead of xmalloc/XNEW/etc.
without losing the "virtual memory exhausted" internal-error
safeguard.
Tested on x86_64 Fedora 23.

ARC is a family of licensable processors developed by Synopsys.
This is an initial patch that doesn't yet support some of the features, that
are already available in Synopsys' fork of GDB, namely:
* longjmp support
* signal frame handling
* prologue analysis
* Linux targets support
* native Linux support
ARC cores are configurable and extensible, which means from debugger
perspective that some registers and debug capabilities are optional, therefore
it is up to the GDB stub to determine exact list of register available on
target and supply it to GDB via XML target descriptions. List of registers
that is known to GDB and is required is intentionally kept small to simplify
requirements to GDB stub and implementation of a GDB client.

gdb's (or gdbserver's) own signal handling should not interfere with
the signal dispositions their spawned children inherit. However, it
currently does. For example, some paths in gdb cause SIGPIPE to be
set to SIG_IGN, and as consequence, the child starts with SIGPIPE to
set to SIG_IGN too, even though gdb was started with SIGPIPE set to
SIG_DFL.
This is because the exec family of functions does not reset the signal
disposition of signals that are set to SIG_IGN:
http://pubs.opengroup.org/onlinepubs/7908799/xsh/execve.html
Signals set to the default action (SIG_DFL) in the calling process
image are set to the default action in the new process
image. Signals set to be ignored (SIG_IGN) by the calling process
image are set to be ignored by the new process image. Signals set to
be caught by the calling process image are set to the default action
in the new process image (see <signal.h>).
And neither does it reset signal masks or flags.
In order to be transparent, when spawning new child processes to debug
(with "run", etc.), reset signal actions and mask back to what was
originally inherited from gdb/gdbserver's parent, just before execing
the target program to debug.

Move the debug register support code from amd64bsd-nat.c and
i386bsd-nat.c into a shared x86bsd-nat.c.
Instead of setting up x86_dr_low in amd64fbsd-nat.c and
i386fbsd-nat.c, add a x86bsd_target function that creates a new target
that inherits from inf_ptrace and sets up x86 debug registers if
supported. In addition to initializing x86_dr_low, the x86bsd target
installs a custom mourn_inferior target operation to clean up the
x86 debug register state. Previously this was only done on amd64.
Now it will be done for both i386 and amd64. The i386bsd_target and
amd64bsd_target functions create targets that inherit from x86bsd
rather than inf_ptrace.
