This patch catches invalid initialization of non-POD types with
memset, at compile time.
This is what I used to catch the problems fixed by the previous
patches in the series:
$ make -k 2>&1 | grep "deleted function"
src/gdb/breakpoint.c:951:53: error: use of deleted function ‘void* memset(T*, int, size_t) [with T = bp_location; <template-parameter-1-2> = void; size_t = long unsigned int]’
src/gdb/breakpoint.c:7325:32: error: use of deleted function ‘void* memset(T*, int, size_t) [with T = bp_location; <template-parameter-1-2> = void; size_t = long unsigned int]’
src/gdb/btrace.c:1153:42: error: use of deleted function ‘void* memset(T*, int, size_t) [with T = btrace_insn; <template-parameter-1-2> = void; size_t = long unsigned int]’

gdb/ChangeLog:
2017-04-25 Pedro Alves <palves@redhat.com>
* common/common-defs.h: Include "common/poison.h".
* common/function-view.h: (Not, Or, Requires): Move to traits.h
and adjust.
* common/poison.h: New file.
* common/traits.h: Include <type_traits>.
(Not, Or, Requires): New, moved from common/function-view.h.
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.
Unit tests included, put into a new gdb/unittests/ subdir.
