The sole caller of exit_inferior_num_silent was getting the inferior's
number to then use the number to look up the inferior again. I think
it's better to simply not have exit_inferior_num_silent; any potential
callers that only have the inferior's number should probably be
converted to pass the inferior itself around instead.
Tested by the buildbot.

On macOS, when gdb is not code-signed, it will throw an exception from
darwin_attach_pid. However, gdb also then crashes:
thread.c:93: internal-error: struct thread_info *inferior_thread(): Assertion `tp' failed.
I think the problem here is that darwin_attach_pid does not clean up
inferior_ptid and inf->pid on failure. This leads to a situation
where gdb tries to find a thread, but cannot.
In other cases, gdb would mourn the inferior at this point; but here
this is not possible because the target has not been pushed. Instead
this patch works by simply updating the inferior and inferior_ptid on
failure.
Tested by building an unsigned gdb on macOS and trying to run an
inferior.

Setting SEC_EXCLUDE for empty .gnu.attributes is too late in the link
process for the linker to remove the section. That must be done in
bfd_elf_final_link, as we do for removed group sections.
* elflink.c (bfd_elf_final_link): Remove zero size .gnu.attributes
sections.
.gnu.attributes entries from linker input files are merged to the
output file, the output having the union of compatible input
attributes. Incompatible attributes generally cause a linker error
and no output. However in some cases only a warning is emitted, and
one of the incompatible input attributes is passed on to the output.
PowerPC tends to emit warnings rather than errors, and the output
takes the first input attribute. For example, if we have two input
files with Tag_GNU_Power_ABI_FP, the first with a value signifying
"double-precision hard float, IBM long double", the second with a
value signifying "double-precision hard float, IEEE long double",
we'll get a warning about incompatible long double types and the
output will say "double-precision hard float, IBM long double".
The output attribute of course isn't correct. It would be correct to
specify "IBM and IEEE long double", but we don't have a way to
represent that currently. While it would be possible to extend the
encoding, there isn't much gain in doing so. A shared library
providing support for both long double types should link against
objects using either long double type without warning or error. That
is what you'd get if such a shared library had no Tag_GNU_Power_ABI_FP
attribute.
So this patch provides a way for the backend to omit .gnu.attributes
tags from the output.

Implement MIPS target support for passing options to the disassembler,
complementing commit 65b48a8140 ("GDB: Add support for the new
set/show disassembler-options commands.").
This includes options that expect an argument, so adjust the generic
code and data structures used so as to handle such options. So as to
give backends syntax flexibility no specific delimiter has been defined
to separate options from their respective arguments, so it has to be
included as the last character of the option name. Completion code
however has not been adjusted and consequently option arguments cannot
be completed at this time.
Also the MIPS target has non-empty defaults for the options, so that ABI
names for the general-purpose registers respect our `set mips abi ...'
setting rather than always being determined from the ELF headers of the
binary file selected. Handle these defaults as implicit options, never
shown to the user and always prepended to the user-specified options, so
that the latters can override the defaults.
The resulting output for the MIPS target is as follows:
(gdb) show disassembler-options
The current disassembler options are ''
The following disassembler options are supported for use with the
'set disassembler-options <option>[,<option>...]' command:
no-aliases Use canonical instruction forms.
msa Recognize MSA instructions.
virt Recognize the virtualization ASE instructions.
xpa Recognize the eXtended Physical Address (XPA) ASE
instructions.
ginv Recognize the Global INValidate (GINV) ASE instructions.

which corresponds to what `objdump --help' used to print for the MIPS
target, with minor formatting changes, most notably option argument
lists being wrapped, but also the amount of white space separating
options from the respective descriptions. The relevant part the new

changes apply to both outputs, except for argument list wrapping, which
is GDB-specific.
This also adds a separating new line between the heading and option

Existing affected target backends have been adjusted accordingly.
This has been verified manually with:
(gdb) set architecture arm
(gdb) set architecture powerpc:common
(gdb) set architecture s390:31-bit
to cause no issues with the `show disassembler-options' and `set
disassembler-options' commands. A test case for the MIPS target has
also been provided, covering the default settings with ABI overrides as
well as disassembler option overrides.

Bug #13157 is about a gdb regression, where previously it could handle
universal libraries, but now cannot.
gdb isn't working for me on macOS for other reasons, so I wrote this
small test program to show the problem:
#include <config.h>
#include <stdio.h>
#include <stdlib.h>
#include <bfd.h>
void
die (const char *what)
{
fprintf (stderr, "die: %s\n", what);
exit (1);
}
int
main (int argc, char **argv)
{
bfd *file = bfd_openr (argv[1], NULL);
if (file == NULL)
die ("couldn't open");
if (!bfd_check_format (file, bfd_archive))
die ("not an archive");
printf ("yay\n");
bfd_close (file);
return 0;
}
Then I built a simple universal binary. With git master BFD, I get:
$ ./doit ./universal-exe
die: not an archive
Jeff Muizelaar tracked this down to the BFD change for PR binutils/21787.
This patch changed bfd_generic_archive_p to sometimes reset the BFD's
"format" field.
However, simply changing bfd_generic_archive_p regressed the test case
in that bug.
Debugging PR binutils/21787 again, what I saw is that the mach-o
universal binary support acts like a bfd_archive but does not provide
a _close_and_cleanup function. However, if a BFD appears as an
archive member, it must always remove its own entry from its parent's
map. Otherwise, when the parent is destroyed, the already-destroyed
child BFD will be referenced. mach-o does not use the usual archive
member support, so simply using _bfd_archive_close_and_cleanup (as
other targets do) will not work.
This patch fixes the problem by introducing a new
_bfd_unlink_from_archive_parent function, then arranging for it to be
called in the mach-o case.
Ok?

The "fp" register name is an alias for "s0" which is an alias for "x8".
The "fp" name is only understood by very recent Binutils and thus not
used by GCC. GCC does not emit a frame pointer with common optimization
options such as -Og or -O2.
It is still possible to use the "fp" register name, e.g.
(gdb) p/x $fp
$1 = 0x800367c8

BFD's bfd_get_mach () function returns a bfd specific value representing
the architecture of the target which is populated from the Tag_CPU_arch
build attribute value of that target. Among other users of that
interfacem, objdump which uses it to print the architecture version of
the binary being examinated and to decide what instruction is available
if run with "-m arm" via its own mapping from bfd_mach_arm_X values to
feature bits available.
However, both BFD and objdump's most recent known architecture is
Armv5TE. When encountering a newer architecture bfd_get_mach will return
bfd_mach_arm_unknown. This is unfortunate since objdump uses that value
to allow all instructions on all architectures which is already what it
does by default, making the "-m arm" trick useless.
This patch updates BFD and objdump's knowledge of Arm architecture
versions up to the latest Armv8-M Baseline and Mainline, Armv8-R and
Armv8.4-A architectures. Since several architecture versions (eg. 8.X-A)
share the same Tag_CPU_arch build attribute value and
bfd_mach_arm values, the mapping from bfd machine value to feature bits
need to return the most featureful feature bits that would yield the
given bfd machine value otherwise some instruction would not disassemble
under "-m arm" mode. The patch rework that mapping to make this clearer
and simplify writing the mapping rules. In particular, for simplicity
all FPU instructions are allowed in all cases.
Finally, the patch also rewrite the cpu_arch_ver table in GAS to use the
TAG_CPU_ARCH_X macros rather than hardcode their value.

Binutils documentation uses a mix of spelling for the compound word
"command-line X". According to [1]:
"Sometimes compound words are written separately (nail polish),
sometimes with a hyphen (short-sighted) and sometimes as one word
(eyelashes). Often new compounds are written as two separate words and,
as they become more familiar, they are either connected with a hyphen
(-) or made into one word."
I think command-line X is common enough in our industry that the two
workds command and line should be connected. Since command-line is more
common than commandline, I propose to update binutils documentation to
consistently use "command-line" when this is used as an adjective to a
noun (eg. command-line argument, command-line switch, command-line
option and command-line flag). I've left occurences of "the command
line" as is. I've also left gdb, sim and readline alone and have only
touched public documentation (texi and NEWS files).

This patch turns dependencies of non-bootstrap targets on bootstrap
targets for bootstrap builds into dependencies on stage_last. This
arrangement gets stage1-bubble to run from stage_last if we haven't
started a bootstrap yet, and to use the current stage otherwise. This
was already the case of target libs, just not of non-bootstrapped host
modules.
In order to retain preexisting dependencies in non-bootstrap builds,
or in gcc-less builds, this introduces support for @unless/@endunless
pairs in Makefile.in.
There is a remaining possibility of problem if activating, in a tree
configured for bootstrap, a parallel build of two or more modules, at
least one bootstrapped and one not. In this case, make might decide
to build stage_current and stage_last in parallel, the latter will
start a submake to build stage1 while the initial make, having
satisfied stage_current, proceeds to build the bootstrapped module in
non-bootstrapped configurations. The two builds will overlap and will
likely conflict. This situation does NOT arise in normal settings,
however: a post-bootstrap build of all-host all-target will indeed
activate such targets concurrently, but only after building all
bootstrapped modules successfully, and it will have both stage_last
and stage_current targets already satisfied, so the potential race
between builds will not arise.
Another remaining problem, that is slightly expanded with this patch,
is that of an interrupted build in a tree configured for bootstrap,
continued with a non-bootstrapped target. Target modules that were
not bootstrapped would already fail to complete the current stage when
activated explicitly in the command line for a retry; host modules,
however, would attempt to build their bootstrapped dependencies, which
is what led to the problem of concurrent builds addressed with this
patch. An interrupted or failed build might still recover correctly,
if the non-bootstrapped target is activated in both builds, because
then make will remove stage_last when its build command is
interrupted, so that it will attempt to recreate it with stage1-bubble
in the second try. A bootstrap build, however, will not be attempting
to build stage_last, so the file will remain and the retry won't go
through stage1-bubble. We have lived with that for target modules, so
we can probably live with that for host modules too.
Another undesirable consequence of this change is that non-boostrapped
host modules, in a tree configured for bootstrap, when activated as
make all-<module>, will build all of stage1 instead of only the
module's usual dependencies. This is intentional and necessary to fix
the parallel-build problem. If it's not desirable, disabling the
unnecessary bootstrap configuration will suffice to restore the
original set of dependencies.

The change to amd64-fbsd-nat.c was done "blind" (no access to system),
but is reasonably straightforward. The changes to the -tdep.c files
were verify by rebuilding GDB on x86_64-linux when configured with
--enable-targets=all.
GDB is currently crashing anytime we try to access the fs_base/gs_base
registers, either to read them, or to write them. This can be observed
under various scenarios:
- Explicit reference to those registers (eg: print $fs_base) --
probably relatively rare;
- Calling a function in the inferior, with the crash happening
because we are trying to read those registers in order to save
their value ahead of making the function call;
- Just a plain "info registers";
The crash was introduced by the following commit:
| commit 48aeef91c2
| Date: Mon Jun 26 18:14:43 2017 -0700
| Subject: Include the fs_base and gs_base registers in amd64 target descriptions.
The Windows-nat implementation was unfortunately not prepared to deal
with those new registers. In particular, the way it fetches registers
is done by using a table where the index is the register number, and
the value at that index is the offset in the area in the thread's CONTEXT
data where the corresponding register value is stored.
For instance, in amd64-windows-nat.c, we can find the mappings static
array containing the following 57 elements in it:
#define context_offset(x) (offsetof (CONTEXT, x))
static const int mappings[] =
{
context_offset (Rax),
[...]
context_offset (FloatSave.MxCsr)
};
That array is then used by windows_fetch_one_register via:
char *context_offset = ((char *) &th->context) + mappings[r];
The problem is that fs_base's register number is 172, which is
well past the end of the mappings array (57 elements in total).
We end up getting an undefined offset, which happens to be so large
that it then causes the address where we try to read the register
value (a little bit later) to be invalid, thus crashing GDB with
a SEGV.
This patch side-steps the issue entirely by removing support for
those registers in GDB on x86_64-windows, because a look at the
CONTEXT structure indicates no support for getting those registers.
A more comprehensive fix would patch the potential buffer overflow
of the mappings array, but this can be done as a separate commit.

It's long annoyed me that "info threads"'s columns are misaligned.
Particularly the "Target Id" column's content is usually longer than
the specified column width, so the table ends up with the "Frame"
column misaligned. For example, currently we get this:
(gdb) info threads
Id Target Id Frame
1 Thread 0x7ffff7fb5740 (LWP 9056) "threads" 0x00007ffff7bc28ad in __pthread_join (threadid=140737345763072, thread_return=0x7fffffffd3e8) at pthread_join.c:90
2 Thread 0x7ffff7803700 (LWP 9060) "function0" thread_function0 (arg=0x0) at threads.c:90
* 3 Thread 0x7ffff7002700 (LWP 9061) "threads" thread_function1 (arg=0x1) at threads.c:106
The fact that the "Frame" heading is in a weird spot is particularly
annoying.
This commit turns the above into into this:
(gdb) info threads
Id Target Id Frame
1 Thread 0x7ffff7fb5740 (LWP 7548) "threads" 0x00007ffff7bc28ad in __pthread_join (threadid=140737345763072, thread_return=0x7fffffffd3e8) at pthread_join.c:90
2 Thread 0x7ffff7803700 (LWP 7555) "function0" thread_function0 (arg=0x0) at threads.c:91
* 3 Thread 0x7ffff7002700 (LWP 7557) "threads" thread_function1 (arg=0x1) at threads.c:104
It does that by computing the max width of the "Target Id" column and
using that as column width when creating the table.
This results in calling target_pid_to_str / target_extra_thread_info /
target_thread_name twice for each thread, but I think that it doesn't
matter in practice performance-wise, because the remote target caches
the info, and with native targets it shouldn't be noticeable. It
could matter if we have many threads (say, thousands), but then "info
threads" is practically useless in such a scenario anyway -- better
thread filtering and aggregation would be necessary.
(Note: I have an old branch somewhere where I attempted at making
gdb's "info threads"-like tables follow a model/view design, so that a
general framework took care of issues like these, but it's incomplete
and a much bigger change. This patch doesn't prevent going in that
direction in the future, of course.)

The following patch will make "info threads" call target_extra_thread_info
more frequently. When I looked at the remote implementation, I noticed
that if we're not using qXfer:threads:read, then we'd be increasing the
remote protocol traffic. This commit prevents that from happening.
Also, it removes a gratuitous local static buffer, which seems good on
its own.

While experimenting with the previous patch, I noticed this inconsistency
in GDB's output:
(gdb) b 32
Breakpoint 1 at 0x40062f: file inline-break.c, line 32. (1)
(gdb) r
....
Breakpoint 1, func1 (x=1) at inline-break.c:32 (2)
32 return x * 23; /* break here */
(gdb) info breakpoints
Num Type Disp Enb Address What
1 breakpoint keep y 0x40062f in main at inline-break.c:32 (3)
breakpoint already hit 1 time
(gdb)
Notice that when the breakpoint as set, GDB showed "inline-break.c,
line 32" (1), the same line number that was specified in the command.
When we run to the breakpoint, we present the stop at the same line
number, and correctly show "func1" as the function name (2).
But in "info break" output (3), notice that we say "in main", not "in
func1".
The same thing happens if you set a breakpoint by address. I.e.:
(gdb) b *0x40062f
Breakpoint 2 at 0x40062f: file inline-break.c, line 32.
(gdb) info breakpoints
Num Type Disp Enb Address What
2 breakpoint keep y 0x000000000040062f in main at inline-break.c:32
(gdb) r
....
Breakpoint 2, func1 (x=1) at inline-break.c:32
32 return x * 23; /* break here */
The problem is that the breakpoints were set at an inline function,
but when we set such a breakpoint by line number or address, we don't
record the functions symbol in the sal, and as consequence the
breakpoint location does not have an associated symbol either.
Then, in print_breakpoint_location, if the location does not have a
symbol, we call find_pc_sect_function to find one, and this is what
finds "main", because find_pc_sect_function uses
block_linkage_function:
/* Return the symbol for the function which contains a specified
lexical block, described by a struct block BL. The return value
will not be an inlined function; the containing function will be
returned instead. */
struct symbol *
block_linkage_function (const struct block *bl)
To fix this, this commit adds an alternative to find_pc_sect_function
that uses block_containing_function instead:
/* Return the symbol for the function which contains a specified
block, described by a struct block BL. The return value will be
the closest enclosing function, which might be an inline
function. */
struct symbol *
block_containing_function (const struct block *bl)
(It seems odd to me that block_linkage_function says "the CONTAINING
function will be returned", and then block_containing_function says it
returns "the closest enclosing function". Something seems reversed
here. Still, I've kept the same nomenclature and copied the comments,
so that at least there's consistency. Maybe we should fix that up
somehow.)
Then I wondered, why make print_breakpoint_location look up the symbol
every time it is called, instead of just always storing the symbol
when the location is created, since the location already stores the
symbol in some cases. So to find which cases might be missing setting
the symbol in the sal which is used to create the breakpoint location,
I added an assertion to print_breakpoint_location, and ran the
testsuite. That caught a few places, unsurprisingly:
- setting a breakpoint by line number
- setting a breapoint by address
- ifunc resolving
Those are all fixed by this commit. I decided not to add the
assertion to block_linkage_function and leave the existing "if (sym)"
check in place, because it's plausible that we have symtabs with line
info but no symbols. I.e., that would not be a GDB bug, but
a peculiarity of debug info input.

* gdb.opt/inline-break.exp (line number, address): Add "info
break" tests.
Commit 61b04dd04a ("Change inline frame breakpoint skipping logic
(fix gdb.gdb/selftest.exp)") caused a GDB crash when you set a
breakpoint by line number in an inline function, and then run to the
breakpoint:
$ gdb -q test Reading symbols from test...done.
(gdb) b inline-break.c:32
Breakpoint 1 at 0x40062f: file inline-break.c, line 32.
(gdb) run
Starting program: /[...]/test
[1] 75618 segmentation fault /[...]/gdb -q test
The problem occurs because we assume that a bp_location's symbol is
not NULL, which is not true when we set the breakpoint with a linespec
location:
Program received signal SIGSEGV, Segmentation fault.
0x00000000006f42bb in stopped_by_user_bp_inline_frame (
stop_chain=<optimized out>, frame_block=<optimized out>)
at gdb/inline-frame.c:305
305 && frame_block == SYMBOL_BLOCK_VALUE (loc->symbol))
(gdb) p loc->symbol
$1 = (const symbol *) 0x0
The same thing happens if you run to a breakpoint set in an inline
function by address:
(gdb) b *0x40062f
Breakpoint 3 at 0x40062f: file inline-break.c, line 32.
To fix this, add a null pointer check, to avoid the crash, and make it
so that if there's no symbol for the location, then we present the
stop at the inline function. This preserves the previous behavior
when e.g., setting a breakpoint by address, with "b *ADDRESS".

Some instructions in Armv8-a place a limitation on FP16 registers that can be
used as the register from which to select an element from.
e.g. fmla restricts Rm to 4 bits when using an FP16 register. This restriction
does not apply for all instructions, e.g. fcmla does not have this restriction
as it gets an extra bit from the M field.
Unfortunately, this restriction to S_H was added for all _Em operands before,
meaning for a large number of instructions you couldn't use the full register
file.
This fixes the issue by introducing a new operand _Em16 which applies this
restriction only when paired with S_H and leaves the _Em and the other
qualifiers for _Em16 unbounded (i.e. using the full 5 bit range).
Also the patch updates all instructions that should be affected by this.

The problem is that handle_inferior_event_1 is reading the stop_pc off
of a thread that was deleted by follow_exec. Before commit
00431a78b2, we didn't crash because we were passing down a ptid to
get_thread_regcache instead of ecs->event_thread.
Fix this by simply moving the stop_pc reading until after
ecs->event_thread is refreshed.
gdb/ChangeLog:
2018-06-28 Pedro Alves <palves@redhat.com>
* infrun.c (handle_inferior_event_1) <TARGET_WAITKIND_EXECD>:
Moving fetching stop_pc until after ecs->event_thread is refreshed.
I noticed that dwarf2_free_objfile can be made static, by changing it
to be a registry cleanup function. This simplifies the code, as well,
because now symbol readers don't have to explicitly call it.
Tested by the buildbot.
gdb/ChangeLog
2018-06-28 Tom Tromey <tom@tromey.com>
* coffread.c (coff_symfile_finish): Update.
* xcoffread.c (xcoff_symfile_finish): Update.
* elfread.c (elf_symfile_finish): Update.
* symfile.h (dwarf2_free_objfile): Don't declare.
* dwarf2read.c (_initialize_dwarf2_read): Use
register_objfile_data_with_cleanup.
(dwarf2_free_objfile): Now static. Change signature.

watchpoint-hw-attach.exp was noticed to fail on some machines.
Thanks to the input from sergiodj and palves on the IRC channel,
it was concluded that the test case incorrectly assumed that on
attach it was landed in the top-most frame of the inferior. This
was fixed by running to a break point in main by explicitly
defining the source file name before continuing with the test.
Tested on the following architectures x86_64, aarch64 and ppc64le.
gdb/testsuite/ChangeLog:
* gdb.base/watchpoint-hw-attach.c (main): Remove unneeded
code.
* gdb.base/watchpoint-hw-attach.exp: Break in outermost frame.
If all sections of a symbol file are loaded with a fixed offset, it
is easier to specify that offset than listing all sections
explicitly. There is also a similar option for "symbol-file".
gdb/ChangeLog:
2018-06-28 Petr Tesarik <ptesarik@suse.cz>
* symfile.c (add_symbol_file_command, _initialize_symfile): Add
option "-o" to add-symbol-file-load to add an offset to each
section's load address.
* symfile.c (set_objfile_default_section_offset): New function.
gdb/doc/ChangeLog:
2018-06-28 Petr Tesarik <ptesarik@suse.cz>
* gdb.texinfo (Files): Document "add-symbol-file -o offset".
gdb/testsuite/ChangeLog:
2018-06-28 Petr Tesarik <ptesarik@suse.cz>
* gdb.base/relocate.exp: Add test for "add-symbol-file -o ".
Symbol files may contain multiple sections with the same name.
Section addresses specified by add-symbol-file are assigned to the
corresponding BFD sections in addr_info_make_relative using sorted
indexes of both vectors. Since the sort algorithm is not inherently
stable, the comparison function uses sectindex to maintain the
original order. However, add_symbol_file_command uses zero for all
sections, so if the user specifies multiple sections with the same
name, they will be assigned randomly to symbol file sections with
the same name.
gdb/ChangeLog:
2018-06-28 Petr Tesarik <ptesarik@suse.cz>
* symfile.c (add_symbol_file_command): Make sure that sections
The (first) .text section must be always specified as the second
non-option argument. The documentation states that GDB cannot
figure out this address by itself. This is true if the object file
was indeed relocated, but it is also confusing, because all other
sections can be omitted and will use the address provided by BFD.
gdb/ChangeLog:
2018-06-28 Petr Tesarik <ptesarik@suse.cz>
* symfile.c (add_symbol_file_command, _initialize_symfile): Do not
require the second argument. If omitted, load sections at the
addresses specified in the file.
gdb/doc/ChangeLog:
2018-06-28 Petr Tesarik <ptesarik@suse.cz>
* gdb.texinfo (Files): The address argument for "add-symbol-file"
is no longer mandatory.
gdb/testsuite/ChangeLog:
2018-06-28 Petr Tesarik <ptesarik@suse.cz>
* gdb.base/relocate.exp: Test add-symbol-file behavior when the
address argument is omitted.
If the main file is relocated at runtime, all symbols are offset by
a fixed amount. Let the user specify this offset when loading a
symbol file.
gdb/ChangeLog:
2018-06-28 Petr Tesarik <ptesarik@suse.cz>
* symfile.c (symbol_file_command, symbol_file_add_main_1)
(_initialize_symfile): Add option "-o" to symbol-file to add an
offset to each section of the symbol file.
gdb/doc/ChangeLog:
2018-06-28 Petr Tesarik <ptesarik@suse.cz>
* gdb.texinfo (Files): Document "symbol-file -o offset".
gdb/testsuite/ChangeLog:
2018-06-28 Petr Tesarik <ptesarik@suse.cz>
* gdb.base/relocate.exp: Add test for "symbol-file -o ".
In my earlier series to change help text to follow the GNU standards
for metasyntactic variables, I missed one: the "func" command. This
patch updates its help text.
Tested by the buildbot.

* stack.c (_initialize_stack): Update "func" help text.
This removes a use of VEC from py-unwind.c, replacing it wit
std::vector. It also changes saved_regs to hold a gdbpy_ref<>,
simplifying the memory management.
Tested against gdb.python on x86-64 Fedora 26.
gdb/ChangeLog
2018-06-27 Tom Tromey <tom@tromey.com>
* python/py-unwind.c (unwind_info_object) <saved_regs>: Now a
std::vector.
(unwind_infopy_str, pyuw_create_unwind_info)
(unwind_infopy_add_saved_register, pyuw_sniffer)
(unwind_infopy_dealloc, unwind_infopy_add_saved_register):
Update.
(struct saved_reg): Add constructor.
<value>: Now a gdbpy_ref<>.
