While I was looking at the file, I noticed that this struct could be
nicely converted to a class. As I was progressing, I ended up moving
all state machine actual internal state manipulation to methods of
lnp_state_machine, essentially decoupling DWARF parsing from state
tracking. I also noticed that the lnp_reader_state doesn't really
serve any good use, so that's eliminated in the process.
gdb/ChangeLog:
2017-04-04 Pedro Alves <palves@redhat.com>
* dwarf2read.c (lnp_state_machine): Now a class. Initialize all
data fields, make them private and add "m_" prefixes.
(lnp_state_machine::lnp_state_machine): New ctor.
(record_line, check_line_address, handle_set_discriminator)
(handle_set_address, handle_advance_pc, handle_special_opcode)
(handle_advance_line, handle_set_file, handle_negate_stmt)
(handle_const_add_pc, handle_fixed_advance_pc, handle_copy)
(end_sequence, advance_line): New methods.
(m_gdbarch, m_record_lines_p): New fields.
(lnp_reader_state): Delete.
(dwarf_record_line): Rename to ...
(lnp_state_machine::record_line): ... adjust.

Adjust lnp_state_machine having a non-default ctor. Use bool.
State machine internal state manipulation moved to
lnp_state_machine methods.
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.
gdb/ChangeLog:

"param_cu_off".
* unittests/offset-type-selftests.c: New file.
This should help catch mistakes related to mixing the 1-based DWARF
indexes with 0-based std::vector indexes, since the new types do not
implicitly convert to anything.
The change in read_formatted_entries relates to the fact that doing
the seemingly simpler:
- uintp = &fe.dir_index;
+ uintp = (unsigned int *) &fe.dir_index;
would be undefined C/C++. So to address that, I made the function
extract the form before assigning to the file_entry. It felt natural
to use gdb::optional for "do I have this value", and this is what
motivated the previous patch that added the missing observer methods
to gdb::optional.
gdb/ChangeLog:
2017-04-04 Pedro Alves <palves@redhat.com>
* common/underlying.h: New file.
* dwarf2read.c: Include "common/gdb_optional.h" and
"common/underlying.h".

Currently, gdb::optional is really minimal and can only be used for
lazy initialization. There's no way to get at the value contained
inside the optinal. This commit corrects that, by adding observer
methods, mostly copied from libstdc++'s implementation of C++17
std::optional.
This will be used in the following patch.
gdb/ChangeLog:
2017-04-04 Pedro Alves <palves@redhat.com>
* common/gdb_optional.h (gdb::optiona): Add operator->, operator*,
operator bool, has_value and get methods.
This starts off as replacing a couple custom open coded vector
implementations in the file with std::vector, and then the rest falls
off of that. I.e., use new/delete instead of XCNEW/xfree, add
ctors/dtors/initializers where appropriate. And then use
std::unique_ptr instead of cleanups. Some functions became methods,
and in a couple spots, some single-use callback functions that would
have to be tweaked anyway are converted to lambdas instead.
gdb/ChangeLog:
2017-04-04 Pedro Alves <palves@redhat.com>
* dwarf2read.c (struct file_entry): Add ctors, and initialize all
fields.
(line_header): Initialize all data fields. Change type of

use std::vector.
In some situations, the dependency tracking files in .deps can refer to
source files that were removed or renamed, leading to errors like:
make: *** No rule to make target `version.c', needed by `version.o'. Stop.
This patch makes the clean target clear the .deps directory, which gives
the user a chance to recover from the error wihtout knowing about the
internals of the build system.
It is already done for GDB. See here for more details:
https://sourceware.org/ml/gdb-patches/2009-03/msg00000.html
gdb/gdbserver/ChangeLog:
* Makefile.in (clean): Clear .deps.
It's the only place in the codebase that uses "struct ptid", so change
it to ptid_t for consistency.
gdb/ChangeLog:
* remote.c (set_general_thread, set_continue_thread): Use ptid_t
instead of struct ptid.
I noticed that there were some missing files in gdbserver's gitignore
(some generated register format .c files). Of course the easy fix would
be to add those files to .gitignore, but I think we can do a better job,
so that we don't have to worry about adding generated files to
.gitignore or the clean Makefile target.
I suggest naming all generated source files -generated.c. This way, we
can use a single rule in .gitignore and do a "rm -f *-generated.c" to
clean them up.
New in v2:
- Don't rename version.o and xml-builtin.o
gdb/gdbserver/ChangeLog:
* .gitignore: Remove generated files, replace with wildcard.
* (clean): Replace removal of generated files with wildcard.
(version.c): Replace with...
(version-generated.c): ...this.
(xml-builtin.c): Replace with...
(xml-builtin-generated.c): ...this.
(%-ipa.o: %-generated.c, %.o: %-generated.c): New rules.
(%.c: *regformats*): Replace with...
(%-generated.c: *regformats*): ...this.
The two-tier lexer in gdb/d-exp.y, which resolves fully qualified names
missed a case where `module.type' was not being classified as one token.
And so when the grammar takes over, it matched the remaining tokens
against the rule `TypeExp . IdentifierExp', where we were expecting to
instead match cast expression `( TypeExp ) UnaryExpression'.
Adding a case for TYPE_CODE_MODULE in type_aggregate_p means that
classify_inner_name will get a chance to lookup the symbol.
This was noticed when using `watch -l', and got the rather confusing
response:
A syntax error in expression, near `) 0x0add4e55'.
So it's been included in the testsuite, along with another test that
does effectively the same expression, but explicitly.
gdb/ChangeLog:
* d-exp.y (type_aggregate_p): Treat TYPE_CODE_MODULE as being
aggregate-like.

Add disassembler helper for GDB, that uses opcodes structure arc_instruction
and adds convenience functions to handle instruction operands. This interface
solves at least those problems with arc_instruction:
* Some instructions, like "push_s", have implicit operands which are not
directly present in arc_instruction.
* Operands of particular meaning, like branch/jump targets, have various
locations and meaning depending on type of branch/target.
* Access to operand value is abstracted into a separate function, so callee
code shouldn't bother if operand value is an immediate value or in a
register.
Testcases included in this commit are fairly limited - they test exclusively
branch instructions, something that will be used in software single stepping.
Most of the other parts of this disassembler helper are tested during prologue
analysis testing.

The demangler exports the cplus_demangle_fill_component function that
clients should use to initialize demangle_component components that
use the "s_binary" union member. cp-name-parser.y uses it in some
places, via the fill_comp wrapper, but not all. Several places
instead use a GDB-specific "make_empty" function. Because this
function does not call any of the demangler "fill" functions, we had
to patch it recently to clear the allocated demangle_component's
"d_printing" field, which is supposedly a "private" demangler field.
To avoid such problems in the future, this commit switches those
places to use "fill_comp" instead, and eliminates the "make_empty"
function.

Now that the to_fetch_registers, to_store_registers and
to_prepare_to_store target methods don't rely on the value of
inferior_ptid anymore, we can remove a bunch of now unnecessary setting
and restoring of inferior_ptid.
The asserts added recently in target_fetch_registers and
target_store_registers, which validate that inferior_ptid matches the
regcache's ptid, must go away. It's the whole point of this effort, to
not require inferior_ptid to have a particular value when calling these
functions.
One thing that I noticed is how sol-thread.c's ps_lgetregs and friends
use the current value of inferior_ptid instead of what's passed as
argument (ph->ptid), unlike proc-service.c's versions of the same
functions. Is it expected? I left it like this in the current patch,
but unless there's a good reason for it to be that way, I guess we
should make it use the parameter.

The patch "Fix memory leak in python.c:do_start_initialization"
(https://sourceware.org/ml/gdb-patches/2017-03/msg00407.html) introduced a
compilation error on some platforms:
../../binutils-gdb/gdb/python/python.c: In function bool do_start_initialization():
../../binutils-gdb/gdb/python/python.c:1556:16: error: invalid conversion from const void* to void* [-fpermissive]
xfree (libdir);
^
This is fixed by removing the constness of libdir's data type.
gdb/ChangeLog:
* python/python.c (do_start_initialization): Remove 'const' from
data type of libdir.
When intializing Python the path to the python binary is build the
following way
progname = concat (ldirname (python_libdir), SLASH_STRING, "bin",
SLASH_STRING, "python", (char *) NULL);
This is problematic as both concat and ldirname allocate memory for the
string they return. Thus the memory allocated by ldirname cannot be
accessed afterwards causing a memory leak. Fix it by temporarily storing
libdir in a variable and xfree it after concat.
gdb/ChangeLog:
python/python.c (do_start_initialization): Fix memory leak.
The linux_nat_xfer_partial does a conversion of inferior_ptid: if it's
an LWP (ptid::lwp != 0), it builds a new ptid with the lwp as
the pid and assigns that temporarily to inferior_ptid. For example, if
inferior_ptid is:
{ .pid = 1234, .lwp = 1235 }
it will assign this to inferior_ptid for the duration of the call:
{ .pid = 1235, .lwp = 0 }
Instead of doing this, this patch teaches the inf-ptrace implementation
of xfer_partial to deal with ptids representing lwps by using
get_ptrace_pid.
Also, in linux_proc_xfer_spu and linux_proc_xfer_partial, we use ptid_get_lwp
instead of ptid_get_pid. While not strictly necessary, since the content of
/proc/<pid> and /proc/<lwp> should be the same, it's a bit safer, because:
- some files under /proc/<pid>/ may not work if the <pid> thread is
running, just like ptrace requires a stopped thread. The current
thread's lwp id is more likely to be in the necessary state (stopped).
- if the leader (<pid>) had exited and is thus now zombie, then several
files under "/proc/<pid>" won't work, while they will if you use
"/proc/<lwp>".
The testsuite found no regression on native amd64 linux.
gdb/ChangeLog:
* inf-ptrace.c (inf_ptrace_xfer_partial): Get pid from ptid
using get_ptrace_pid.

Both aarch64-tdep.c and arm-tdep.c defines a class instruction_reader, which
violates ODR, but linker doesn't an emit error. I fix this issue by wrapping
them by anonymous namespace, but I think it is better to apply this for all

If it is a good idea to put locally used class into anonymous namespace, we
should document this rule into GDB coding convention, or even GCC coding
convention. Note that anonymous namespace has been used in GCC but GCC

This patch adds tests for the initial rvalue reference support patchset. All
of the new tests are practically mirrored regular references tests and, except
for the demangler ones, are introduced in new files, which are set to be
compiled with -std=gnu++11. Tested are printing of rvalue reference types and
values, rvalue reference parameters in function overloading, demangling of
function names containing rvalue reference parameters, casts to rvalue
reference types, application of the sizeof operator to rvalue reference types
and values, and support for rvalue references within the gdb python module.

This patch introduces changes to rank_one_type() dealing with ranking an rvalue
reference type when selecting a best viable function from a set of candidate
functions. The 4 new added rules for rvalue references are:
1) An rvalue argument cannot be bound to a non-const lvalue reference parameter
and an lvalue argument cannot be bound to an rvalue reference parameter.
[C++11 13.3.3.1.4p3]
2) If a conversion to one type of reference is an identity conversion, and a
conversion to the second type of reference is a non-identity conversion, choose
the first type. [C++11 13.3.3.2p3]
3) An rvalue should be first tried to bind to an rvalue reference, and then to
an lvalue reference. [C++11 13.3.3.2p3]
4) An lvalue reference to a function gets higher priority than an rvalue
reference to a function. [C++11 13.3.3.2p3]

resolution bugs.

On s390x targets GDB can not handle displaced stepping correctly for some
relative branch instructions, such as cij (compare immediate and branch
relative). When setting a breakpoint on such an instruction and
single-stepping over it, the branch is never taken. This is because the
check in s390_displaced_step_fixup for relative branch instructions is
incomplete.

against, this patch just treats relative branches and non-branching

As Gareth McMullin <gareth@blacksphere.co.nz> reports at

timeout mechanism in ser-unix.c was broken by commit 048094acc
("target remote: Don't rely on immediate_quit (introduce quit
handlers)").
Instead of applying a local fix, and since we now finally always use
interrupt_select [1], let's get rid of hardwire_readchar entirely, and
use ser_base_readchar instead, which has similar timeout handling,
except for the bug.
Smoke tested with:
$ socat -d -d pty,raw,echo=0 pty,raw,echo=0
2017/03/14 14:08:13 socat[4994] N PTY is /dev/pts/14

Recently I fixed a bug that caused a DW_OP_implicit_pointer with non-zero
offset into a DW_OP_implicit_value to be handled incorrectly on big-endian
targets. GDB ignored the offset and copied the wrong bytes:
https://sourceware.org/ml/gdb-patches/2017-01/msg00251.html
But there is still a similar issue when a DW_OP_implicit_pointer points
into a DW_OP_stack_value instead; and again, the offset is ignored. There
is an important difference, though: While implicit values are treated like
blocks of data and anchored at the lowest-addressed byte, stack values
traditionally contain integer numbers and are anchored at the *least
significant* byte. Also, stack values do not come in varying sizes, but
are cut down appropriately when used. Thus, on big-endian targets the
scenario looks like this (higher addresses shown right):
|<- - - - - Stack value - - - - - - ->|
| |
|<- original object ->|
|
| offset ->|####|
^^^^
de-referenced
implicit pointer
(Note how the original object's size influences the position of the
de-referenced implicit pointer within the stack value. This is not the
case for little-endian targets, where the original object starts at offset
zero within the stack value.)
This patch implements the logic indicated in the above diagram and adds an
appropriate test case. A new function dwarf2_fetch_die_type_sect_off is
added; it is used for retrieving the original object's type, so its size
can be determined. That type is passed to dwarf2_evaluate_loc_desc_full

The expectation in gdb.cp/m-static.exp for the ptype of

When inf_ptrace_xfer_partial performs a memory transfer via ptrace with
PT_READ_I, PT_WRITE_I (aka PTRACE_PEEKTEXT, PTRACE_POKETEXT), etc., then
it currently transfers at most one word. This behavior yields degraded
performance, particularly if the caller has significant preparation work
for each invocation. And indeed it has for writing, in
memory_xfer_partial in target.c, where all of the remaining data to be
transferred is copied to a temporary buffer each time, for breakpoint
shadow handling. Thus large writes have quadratic runtime and can take
hours.
Note: On GNU/Linux targets GDB usually does not use
inf_ptrace_xfer_partial for large memory transfers, but attempts a single
read/write from/to /proc/<pid>/mem instead. However, the kernel may
reject writes to /proc/<pid>/mem (such as kernels prior to 2.6.39), or
/proc may not be mounted. In both cases GDB falls back to the ptrace
mechanism.
This patch fixes the performance issue by attempting to fulfill the whole
transfer request in inf_ptrace_xfer_partial, using a loop around the
ptrace call.

An optional parameter TEST has been added to get_hexadecimal_valueof in commit:

This patch adds a similar optional parameter to other related methods that

Thus tests that evaluate same expression multiple times can provide custom
test names, ensuring that test names will be unique.

So far linux_proc_xfer_partial refused to handle write requests. This is
still based on the assumption that the Linux kernel does not support
writes to /proc/<pid>/mem. That used to be true, but has changed with
Linux 2.6.39 released in May 2011.
This patch lifts this restriction and now exploits /proc/<pid>/mem for
writing to inferior memory as well, if possible.

I noticed that backslash_in_multi_line_command_test in
gdb.base/commands.exp failed on our RHEL6 servers. I traced it to the
old version of DejaGnu (1.4.4). I have found that instead of receiving
the expected:
"print \\\nargc\n"
gdb received:
"print argc\n"
thus breaking the test and its purpose. Versionof DejaGnu < 1.5 mess
up sending "\\\n", it somehow gets replaced with a space. I found that
the following commit in DejaGnu fixed the issue:
http://git.savannah.gnu.org/cgit/dejagnu.git/commit/lib/remote.exp?id=3f39294f5cd6802858838d3bcc0ccce847ae17f2
Even though the commit is almost 10 years old, the following release of
DejaGnu was only in 2013, which is why we still have systems with the
old code.
If the DejaGnu version is < 1.5, we just skip the test.
gdb/testsuite/ChangeLog:
* gdb.base/commands.exp (backslash_in_multi_line_command_test):
Skip for versions of DejaGnu < 1.5.
The next patch will require checking the DejaGnu version. There is
already a test that does this,
gdb.threads/attach-many-short-lived-threads.exp. This patch introduces
a new procedure, dejagnu_version, and makes that test use it.
The version number is "right-padded" with zeroes, to make sure that we
always return a triplet (major, minor, patch).
The procedure does not consider the DejaGnu versions from git. For
example, if you used DejaGnu from its current master branch, the version
would be "1.6.1-git", meaning that 1.6.1 will be the next release. I
figured we'll cross that bridge when (and if) we get there.

While integrating the d_printing recursion guard change into gdb I
noticed we forgot to initialize the demangle_component d_printing
field in cplus_demangle_fill_{name,extended_operator,ctor,dtor}.
As is done in cplus_demangle_fill_{component,builtin_type,operator}.
It happened to work because in gcc all demangle_components were
allocated through d_make_empty. But gdb has its own allocation
mechanism (as might other users).

For a long time now, c++/8218 has noted that GDB is printing argument types
for destructors:
(gdb) ptype A
type = class A {
public:
~A(int);
}
This happens because cp_type_print_method_args doesn't ignore artificial
arguments. [It ignores the first `this' pointer because it simply skips
the first argument for any non-static function.]
This patch fixes this:
(gdb) ptype A
type = class A {
public:
~A();
}
I've adjusted gdb.cp/templates.exp to account for this and added a new
passing regexp.

If you do "interrupt -a" just while some thread is stepping over a
breakpoint, gdb trips on an internal error.
The test added by this patch manages to trigger this consistently by
spawning a few threads that are constantly tripping on a conditional
breakpoint whose condition always evaluates to false. With current
gdb, you get:
~~~
interrupt -a
.../src/gdb/inline-frame.c:343: internal-error: void skip_inline_frames(ptid_t): Assertion `find_inline_frame_state (ptid) == NULL' failed.
A problem internal to GDB has been detected,

further debugging may prove unreliable.
Quit this debugging session? (y or n) FAIL: gdb.threads/interrupt-while-step-over.exp: displaced-stepping=off: iter=0: wait for stops (GDB internal error)
~~~
The assertion triggers because we're processing a stop for a thread
that had already stopped before and thus had already its inline-frame
state filled in.
Calling handle_inferior_event_1 directly within a
"thread_stop_requested" observer is something that I've wanted to get
rid of before, for being fragile. Nowadays, infrun is aware of
threads with pending events, so we can use that instead, and let the
normal fetch_inferior_event -> handle_inferior_event code path handle
the forced stop.
The change to finish_step_over is necessary because sometimes a thread
that was told to PTRACE_SINGLESTEP reports back a SIGSTOP instead of a
SIGTRAP (i.e., we tell it to single-step, and then interrupt it quick
enough that on the kernel side the thread dequeues the SIGTOP before
ever having had a chance of executing the instruction to be stepped).
SIGSTOP gets translated to a GDB_SIGNAL_0. And then finish_step_over
would miss calling clear_step_over_info, and thus miss restarting the
other threads (which in this case of threads with pending events,
means setting their "resumed" flag, so their pending events can be
consumed).
And now that we always restart threads in finish_step_over, we no
longer need to do that in handle_signal_stop.
Tested on x86_64 Fedora 23, native and gdbserver.

With commit 3b12939dfc ("Replace the sync_execution global with a
new enum prompt_state tristate"), GDB started aborting if you try
splitting an input line with a continuation char (backslash) while in
a multi-line command:
(gdb) commands
Type commands for breakpoint(s) 1, one per line.
End with a line saying just "end".
>print \
(gdb) 1 # note "(gdb)" incorrectly printed here.
>end
readline: readline_callback_read_char() called with no handler!
$
That abort is actually a symptom of an old problem introduced when
gdb_readline_wrapper was rewritten to use asynchronous readline, back
in 2007. Note how the "(gdb)" prompt is printed above in the "(gdb)
1" line. Clearly it shouldn't be there, but it already was before the
commit mentioned above. Fixing that also fixes the readline abort
shown above.
The problem starts when command_line_input passes a NULL prompt to
gdb_readline_wrapper when it finds previous incomplete input due to a
backslash, trying to fetch more input without printing another ">"
secondary prompt. That itself should not be a problem, because
passing NULL to gdb_readline_wrapper has the same meaning as passing a
pointer to empty string, since gdb_readline_wrapper exposes the same
interface as 'readline(char *)'. However, gdb_readline_wrapper passes
the prompt argument directly to display_gdb_prompt, and for the
latter, a NULL prompt argument has a different meaning - it requests
printing the primary prompt.
Before commit 782a7b8ef9c096 (which rewrote gdb_readline_wrapper to
use asynchronous readline), GDB behaved like this:
(gdb) commands
[....]
>print \
1
>end
(gdb)
The above is what this commit restores GDB back to.
New test included.

Commit d7e747318f ("Eliminate make_cleanup_ui_file_delete / make
ui_file a class hierarchy") regressed the TUI's command window.
Newlines miss doing a "carriage return", resulting in output like:
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
(gdb) helpList of classes of commands:
aliases -- Aliases of other commands
breakpoints -- Making program stop at certain points
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Before the commit mentioned above, the default ui_file->to_write
implementation had a hack that would defer into the ui_file->to_fputs
method. The TUI's ui_file did not implement the to_write method, so
all writes would end up going to the ncurses window via tui_file_fputs
-> tui_puts.
After the commit above, the hack is gone, but the TUI's ui_file still
does not implement the ui_file::write method. Since tui_file inherits
from stdio_file, writing to a tui_file ends up doing fwrite on the
FILE stream the TUI is "associated" with, via stdio_file::write,
instead of writing to the ncurses window.
The fix is to have tui_file override the "write" method.
New test included.

The problem is simply that the commit mentioned above made the ui_file
that gdb_stdout is temporarily set to be a stack-allocated
string_file, while before it used to be a heap-allocated ui_file. The
fix is simply to remove the now-incorrect delete.
New test included, which exercises enabling all TUI layouts, with and
without execution. (This particular crash only triggers with
execution.)

This patch initializes the BND registers before executing the inferior
call. BND registers can be in arbitrary values at the moment of the
inferior call. In case the function being called uses as part of the
parameters BND register, e.g. when passing a pointer as parameter, the
current value of the register will be used. This can cause boundary
violations that are not due to a real bug or even desired by the user.
In this sense the best to be done is set the BND registers to allow
access to the whole memory, i.e. initialized state, before pushing the
inferior call.

Resyncing due to internal error.
This internal error is caused by e8b24d9 (Remove parameter valaddr from
la_val_print). Commit e8b24d9 removes some calls to
value_contents_for_printing, but value_fetch_lazy is not called, so the
internal error above is triggered. This patch adds value_fetch_lazy

This commit adds support to GDB so that it can modify the disassembler-options

Currently, the only supported targets are ARM, PowerPC and S/390, but
adding support for a new target(s) is not difficult.

I wanted to pass a lambda to iterate_over_symtabs (see following
patch), so I converted it to function_view, and then the rest is
cascaded from that.
This gets rid of a bunch of single-use callback functions and
corresponding manually managed callback capture types
(add_partial_datum, search_symbols_data, etc.) in favor of letting the
compiler generate them for us by using lambdas with a capture. In a
couple cases, it was more natural to convert the existing function
callbacks to function objects (i.e., operator(), e.g.,
decode_compound_collector).

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.

* fork-child.c (trace_start_error): Fix thinko. va_end should
refer to 'ap', not 'args'.
This patch fixes PR gdb/16188, which is about the fact that
fork_inferior doesn't verify the return value of the "traceme_fun"
callback. On most targets, this callback is actually a wrapper to a
ptrace call that does a PTRACE_TRACEME on the forked GDB process that
will eventually become the inferior.
Thanks to Pedro, this second version of the patch is simpler and more
more logical. Basically, two helper functions are added:
trace_start_error and trace_start_error_with_name. The former can be
used when there is a customized error message to be printed to the
user. The latter works like perror_with_name, so you just need to
pass the function that error'd.
Both helper functions mentioned above do basically the same thing:
print the error message to stderr and call _exit, properly terminating
the forked inferior.
Most of the patch takes care of guarding the necessary system calls
against errors on the "traceme_fun" callbacks. It is not right to
call error on these situations, so I've replaced these calls with the
proper helper function call.
Regression-tested on BuildBot.

The size of the state-component bitmap as specified in
Intel(R) 64 and IA-32 Architectures Software Developer's Manual,
Chapter 13.4.2 is 8 bytes.
So far, the data types used for xstate_bv_p (gdb_byte*),
clear_bv (unsigned int) and tdep->xcr0 (uint64_t) were
inconsistent. But, since the xstate components were still
fitting into a single byte, the code still worked
as expected.
However, with the addition of the PKU feature (bit 9),
using one byte for the bitmap will no longer be sufficient.
This patch changes related code to use 64 bit data types
consistently and changes read/write acces of the XSAVE
header in the xsave buffer to use the endianess-aware
functions extract_unsigned_integer and store_unsigned_integer.
This is required to make sure that eventual differences
in endianess between host and target are taken care off.

Currently, btrace_find_insn_by_number will iterate over all function call
segments to find the one that contains the needed instruction. This linear
search is too slow for the upcoming Python bindings that will use this
function to access instructions. This patch introduces a vector in struct
btrace_thread_info that holds pointers to all recorded function segments and
allows to use binary search.
The proper solution is to turn the underlying tree into a vector of objects

On 64-bit FC25, the _dl_runtime_resolve function uses a conditional branch to

End of assembler dump.
When computing the function-level trace, btrace treats this as a switch from
_dl_runtime_resolve_avx_opt to _dl_runtime_resolve_sse_vex. We know that we
switched functions but we can't really say in which caller/callee relationship
those two functions are.
In addition to preserving the indentaion level, also preserve the caller
information. This is a heuristic since we don't really know. But at least in
this case, this seems to be the right thing to do.
This fixes a fail in gdb.btrace/rn-dl-bind.exp on 64-bit FC25.

The timeouts were caused by an attempt to match a bell character (x07) that
doesn't show up on my particular test setup.
The bell character is output whenever one tries to complete a pattern and there
are multiple possible matches. When there is only one possible match, GDB will
complete the input pattern without outputting the bell character.
The reason for the discrepancy in this test's behavior is due to the use of
"main" for a unique name test.
On glibc-based systems, GDB may notice the "main_arena" symbol, which is
a data global part of glibc's malloc implementation. Therefore a bell character
will be output because we have a couple possible completion matches.
GDB should not be outputting such a data symbol as a possible match, but this
problem may/will be addressed in a future change and is besides the point of
this particular change.
On systems that are not based on glibc, GDB will not see any other possible
matches for completing "main", so there will be no bell characters.
The use of main is a bit fragile though, so the patch adds a new local function
with a name that has a greater chance of being unique and adjusts the test to
iuse it.
I've also added the regular expression switch (-re) to all the
gdb_test_multiple calls that were missing it. Hopefully this will reduce the
chances of someone wasting time trying to match a regular expression (a much
more common use case) when, in reality, the pattern is supposed to be matched
literally.

This test attempts to load a x86 core file no matter what target
architectures the tested GDB supports. If GDB doesn't know how to handle
a i386 target, it is very likely the core file will not be recognized.
In this case we should still attempt to load a core file to make sure GDB
doesn't crash or throws an internal error. But we should not proceed to
try to read memory unconditionally.
This patch makes the test check for proper i386 arch support in GDB and bails
out if i386 is not supported and the core file format is not recognized.

This patch restricts queries to the main UI, which allows to avoid two
different problems.
The first one is that GDB is issuing queries on secondary MI channels
for which a TTY is allocated. The second one is that GDB is not able to
handle queries on two (CLI) UIs simultaneously. Restricting queries to
the main UI allows to bypass these two problems.
More details on how/why these two problems happen:
1. Queries on secondary MI UI
The current criterion to decide if we should query the user is whether
the input stream is a TTY. The original way to start GDB in MI mode
from a front-end was to create a subprocess with pipes to its
stdin/stdout. In this case, the input was considered non-interactive
and queries were auto-answered. Now that front-ends can create the MI
channel as a separate UI connected to a dedicated TTY, GDB now
considers this input stream as interactive and sends queries to it.
By restricting queries to the main UI, we make sure we never query on
the secondary MI UI.
2. Simultaneous queries
As Pedro stated it, when you have two queries on two different CLI UIs
at the same time, you end up with the following pseudo stack:
#0 gdb_readline_wrapper
#1 defaulted_query // for UI #2#2 handle_command
#3 execute_command ("handle SIGTRAP" ....
#4 stdin_event_handler // input on UI #2#5 gdb_do_one_event
#7 gdb_readline_wrapper
#8 defaulted_query // for UI #1#9 handle_command
#10 execute_command ("handle SIGINT" ....
#11 stdin_event_handler // input on UI #1#12 gdb_do_one_event
#13 gdb_readline_wrapper
trying to answer the query on UI #1 will therefore answer for UI #2.
By restricting the queries to the main UI, we ensure that there will
never be more than one pending query, since you can't have two queries
on a UI at the same time.
I added a snippet to gdb.base/new-ui.exp to verify that we get a query
on the main UI, but that we don't on the secondary one (or, more
precisely, that it gets auto-answered).
gdb/ChangeLog:
* utils.c (defaulted_query): Don't query on secondary UIs.
gdb/testsuite/ChangeLog:
* gdb.base/new-ui.exp (do_test): Test queries behavior on main
and extra UIs.
I found another unused "cleanup" local variable, this time in
rust-lang.c. This patch removes it. Committing as obvious.

* rust-lang.c (rust_get_disr_info): Remove unused variable.
While testing this series I saw some errors from the Python test
suite. There were a couple of tests using "P" as a command; this
changes them to "p".
gdb/testsuite/ChangeLog
2017-02-10 Tom Tromey <tom@tromey.com>
* gdb.python/py-xmethods.exp: Use "p" command, not "P".
I found an unused local variables in a couple of places in the Python
code; this removes them.
gdb/ChangeLog
2017-02-10 Tom Tromey <tom@tromey.com>
* python/py-value.c (valpy_richcompare_throw): Remove unnecessary
"cleanup" local.
* python/py-type.c (typy_legacy_template_argument): Remove
unnecessary "cleanup" local.
This patch slightly refactors a couple of spots in the Python code to
avoid some gotos.
gdb/ChangeLog
2017-02-10 Tom Tromey <tom@tromey.com>
* python/python.c (do_start_initialization): New function, from
_initialize_python.
(_initialize_python): Call do_start_initialization.
* python/py-linetable.c (ltpy_iternext): Use explicit returns, not
goto.
This patch changes one more spot in the Python layer to use gdbpy_ref.
gdb/ChangeLog
2017-02-10 Tom Tromey <tom@tromey.com>
* python/py-prettyprint.c (pretty_print_one_value): Use
gdbpy_ref.
This uses the new gdbpy_ref template to simplify logic in various
parts of the Python layer; for example removing repeated error code or
removing gotos.

This turns gdbpy_ref into a template class, so that it can be used to
wrap subclasses of PyObject. The default argument remains PyObject;
and this necessitated renaming uses of "gdbpy_ref" to "gdbpy_ref<>".
gdb/ChangeLog
2017-02-10 Tom Tromey <tom@tromey.com>
* python/py-ref.h (gdbpy_ref_policy): Now a template.
(gdbpy_ref): Now a template; allow subclasses of PyObject to be
used.

This patch introduces a bit of infrastructure -- namely, a minimal
std::optional analogue called gdb::optional, and an RAII template
class that works like make_cleanup_ui_out_tuple_begin_end or
make_cleanup_ui_out_list_begin_end -- and then uses these in the
Python code. This removes a number of cleanups and generally
simplifies this code.
std::optional is only available in C++17. Normally I would have had
this code check __cplusplus, but my gcc apparently isn't new enough to
find <optional>, even with -std=c++1z; so, because I could not test
it, the patch does not do this.
gdb/ChangeLog
2017-02-10 Tom Tromey <tom@tromey.com>
* ui-out.h (ui_out_emit_type): New class.
(ui_out_emit_tuple, ui_out_emit_list): New typedefs.
* python/py-framefilter.c (py_print_single_arg): Use gdb::optional
and ui_out_emit_tuple.
(enumerate_locals): Likewise.
(py_mi_print_variables, py_print_locals, py_print_args): Use
ui_out_emit_list.
(py_print_frame): Use gdb::optional, ui_out_emit_tuple,
ui_out_emit_list.
* common/gdb_optional.h: New file.
Currently, the breakpoint documentation refers to some commands taking breakpoint
"ranges" as arguments. We discussed this with Pedro and concluded that it would
be more accurate to speak in terms of breakpoint "lists", whose elements can optionally
be ranges. I also fixed a couple of minor mistakes in the docs.
gdb/ChangeLog:
* breakpoint.c (_initialize_breakpoint): Update the help description
of the 'commands' command to indicate that it takes a list argument.
gdb/doc/ChangeLog:
* gdb.texinfo (Breakpoints): Reword documentation to speak in terms of
space-separated breakpoint lists. Also add a missing @table command
and @cindex for breakpoint lists.
gdb/testsuite/ChangeLog:
* gdb.base/help.exp: Update match pattern for testing 'help commands'.
This commit fixes a segmentation fault on tab completion when
certain debuginfo is installed:

gdb/ChangeLog:
* symtab.c (add_symtab_completions): Prevent NULL pointer
dereference.
This commit removes interp::quiet_p / interp_quiet_p /
interp_set_quiet, because AFAICS, it doesn't really do anything.
interp_quiet is only ever checked inside interp_set nowadays:
if (!first_time && !interp_quiet_p (interp))
{
xsnprintf (buffer, sizeof (buffer),
"Switching to interpreter \"%.24s\".\n", interp->name);
current_uiout->text (buffer);
}
I did a bit of archaelogy, and found that back in 4a8f6654 (2003), it
was also called in another place, to decide whether to print the CLI
prompt.
AFAICS, that condition is always false today, making that if/then
block always dead code. If we remove that code, then there are no
interp_quiet_p uses left in the tree, so we can remove it all.
There are two paths that lead to interp_set calls:
#1 - When installing the top level interpreter. In this case,
FIRST_TIME is true.
#2 - In interpreter_exec_cmd. In this case, the interpreter is always
set quiet before interp_set is called.
Grepping a gdb.log of an x86_64 GNU/Linux run for "Switching to
interpreter" (before this patch) doesn't find any hits.
I suspect the intention of this message was to support something like
a "set interpreter ..." command that would change the interpreter
permanently. But there's no such command.
Tested on x86_64 Fedora 23.
gdb/ChangeLog:
2017-02-08 Pedro Alves <palves@redhat.com>
* interps.c (interp::interp): Remove reference to quiet_p.
(interp_set): Make static. Remove dead "Switching to" output
code.
(interp_quiet_p, interp_set_quiet): Delete.
(interpreter_exec_cmd): Don't set the interpreter quiet.
* interps.h (interp_quiet_p): Make static.
(class interp) <quiet_p>: Remove field
