Now that we have range functions that let us use ranged for loops, we
can remove iterate_over_breakpoints in favor of those, which are easier
to read and write. This requires exposing the declaration of
all_breakpoints and all_breakpoints_safe in breakpoint.h, as well as the
supporting types.
Change some users of iterate_over_breakpoints to use all_breakpoints,
when they don't need to delete the breakpoint, and all_breakpoints_safe
otherwise.

Add the all_bp_locations_at_addr function, which returns a range of all
breakpoint locations at exactly the given address. This lets us
replace:
bp_location *loc, **loc2p, *locp;
ALL_BP_LOCATIONS_AT_ADDR (loc2p, locp, address)
{
loc = *loc2p;
// use loc
}
with
for (bp_location *loc : all_bp_locations_at_addr (address))
{
// use loc
}
The all_bp_locations_at_addr returns a bp_locations_at_addr_range
object, which is really just a wrapper around two std::vector iterators
representing the beginning and end of the interesting range. These
iterators are found when constructing the bp_locations_at_addr_range
object using std::equal_range, which seems a perfect fit for this use
case.
One thing I noticed about the current ALL_BP_LOCATIONS_AT_ADDR is that
if you call it with a NULL start variable, that variable gets filled in
and can be re-used for subsequent iterations. This avoids the cost of
finding the start of the interesting range again for the subsequent
iterations. This happens in build_target_command_list, for example.
The same effect can be achieved by storing the range in a local
variable, it can be iterated on multiple times.
Note that the original comment over ALL_BP_LOCATIONS_AT_ADDR says:
Iterates through locations with address ADDRESS for the currently
selected program space.
I don't see anything restricting the iteration to a given program space,
as we iterate over all bp_locations, which as far as I know contains all
breakpoint locations, regardless of the program space. So I just
dropped that part of the comment.

Add the all_bp_locations function to replace the ALL_BP_LOCATIONS macro.
For simplicity, all_bp_locations simply returns a const reference to the
bp_locations vector. But the callers just treat it as a range to
iterate on, so if we ever change the breakpoint location storage, we can
change the all_bp_locations function to return some other range type,
and the callers won't need to be changed.

Change the type of the global location list, bp_locations, to be an
std::vector.
Adjust the users to deal with that, mostly in an obvious way by using
.data() and .size(). The user where it's slightly less obvious is
update_global_location_list. There, we std::move the old location list
out of the global vector into a local variable. The code to fill the
new location list gets simpler, as it's now simply using .push_back(),
no need to count the locations beforehand.
In the rest of update_global_location_list, the code is adjusted to work
with indices instead of `bp_location **`, to iterate on the location
list. I believe it's a bit easier to understand this way. But more
importantly, when we build with _GLIBCXX_DEBUG, the operator[] of the
vector does bound checking, so we will know if we ever access past a
vector size (which we won't if we access by raw pointer). I think that
work can further be done to make that function easier to understand,
notably find better names than "loc" and "loc2" for variables, but
that's work for later.

Same idea as the previous patches, but to replace the ALL_TRACEPOINTS
macro. Define a new filtered_iterator that only keeps the breakpoints
for which is_tracepoint returns true (just like the macro did).
I would have like to make it so tracepoint_range yields some
`tracepoint *` instead of some `breakpoint *`, that would help simplify
the callers, who wouldn't have to do the cast themselves. But I didn't
find an obvious way to do it. It can always be added later.
It turns out there is already an all_tracepoints function, which returns
a vector containing all the breakpoints that are tracepoint. Remove it,
most users will just work seamlessly with the new function. The
exception is start_tracing, which iterated multiple times on the vector.
Adapt this one so it iterates multiple times on the returned range.
Since the existing users of all_tracepoints are outside of breakpoint.c,
this requires defining all_tracepoints and a few supporting types in
breakpoint.h. So, move breakpoint_iterator from breakpoint.c to
breakpoint.h.

Same as the previous patch, but intended to replace the
ALL_BREAKPOINTS_SAFE macro, which allows deleting the current breakpoint
while iterating. The new range type simply wraps the range added by the
previous patch with basic_safe_range.
I didn't remove the ALL_BREAKPOINTS_SAFE macro, because there is one
spot where it's more tricky to remove, in the
check_longjmp_breakpoint_for_call_dummy function. More thought it
needed for this one.

An earlier patch in this series fixed a dependency problem between two
_initialize functions. That problem was uncovered by reversing the
order of the initialize function calls.
In short, symtab.c tried to add the alias "maintenance
flush-symbol-cache" for the command "maintenance flush symbol-cache".
Because the "maintenance flush" prefix command was not yet created (it
happens in maint.c, initialized later in this reversed order), the
add_alias_cmd function returned NULL. That result was passed to
deprecate_cmd, which didn't expected that value, and that caused a
segfault. This was fixed by changing alias creation functions to take
the target command as a cmd_list_element, instead of by name.
This patch adds a runtime option to reverse the order of the initialize
calls at will. I chose to use an environment variable for this, over a
parameter (even a "maintenance" one), because:
- The init functions are called before the early init commands are
executed, so we could use -iex to turn this mode on early enough.
This is obvious when you remember that commands / parameters are
created by initialize funcitions :).
- This is not something anybody would want to tweak after startup
anyway.

I would like to modify how the init.c file is generated (its content).
But as it is, a shell script with multiple sed invocations in a Makefile
target, it's not very maintainable. Replace that with a shell script
that does the same, but in a more readable way.
The Makefile rule uses the "-" prefix in front of the for loop, I
presume to ignore any error coming from the fact that xml-builtin.c and
cp-name-parser.c are not found in the srcdir (they are generated source
files). I prefer not to blindly ignore errors, so filter these files
out of INIT_FILES instead (we already filter out other files).
There are no expected meaningful changes to the generated init.c file.
Just the _initialize_all_file declaration that is moved down and "void"
in parenthesis that is removed.
The new regular expression is a bit tighter than the existing one, it
requires the init function to be followed by exactly ` ()`. Update
bpf-tdep.c accordingly.

The alias creation functions currently accept a name to specify the
target command. They pass this to add_alias_cmd, which needs to lookup
the target command by name.
Given that:
- We don't support creating an alias for a command before that command
exists.
- We always use add_info_alias just after creating that target command,
and therefore have access to the target command's cmd_list_element.
... change add_com_alias to accept the target command as a
cmd_list_element (other functions are done in subsequent patches). This
ensures we don't create the alias before the target command, because you
need to get the cmd_list_element from somewhere when you call the alias
creation function. And it avoids an unecessary command lookup. So it
seems better to me in every aspect.

Some add_set_show commands return a single cmd_list_element, the one for
the "set" command. A subsequent patch will need to access the show
command's cmd_list_element as well. Change these functions to return a

The DIE @ 0x18a936e7 does in fact exist, and is part of a CU @ 0x18a23e52.
No error message is printed when using -readnow.
What happens is the following:
- a dwarf2_per_cu_data P is created for the CU.
- a dwarf2_cu A is created for the same CU.
- another dwarf2_cu B is created for the same CU.
- the dwarf2_cu B is set in per_objfile->m_dwarf2_cus, such that
per_objfile->get_cu (P) returns B.
- P->load_all_dies is set to 1.
- all dies are read into the A->partial_dies htab
- dwarf2_cu A is destroyed.
- we try to find the partial_die for the DIE @ 0x18a936e7 in B->partial_dies.
We can't find it, but do not try to load all dies, because P->load_all_dies
is already set to 1.
- an error message is generated.
The question is why we're creating dwarf2_cu A and B for the same CU.
The dwarf2_cu A is created here:

So in frame #9, a cutu_reader is created with dwarf2_cu A. Then a fixup takes
us to the following CU @ 0x18aa33d6, in frame #5. And a similar fixup in
frame #4 takes us back to CU @ 0x18a23e52. At that point, there's no
information available that we're already trying to read that CU, and we end up
creating another cutu_reader with dwarf2_cu B.
It seems that there are two related problems:
- creating two dwarf2_cu's is not optimal
- the unoptimal case is not handled correctly
This patch addresses the last problem, by moving the load_all_dies flag from
dwarf2_per_cu_data to dwarf2_cu, such that it is paired with the partial_dies
field, which ensures that the two can be kept in sync.
Tested on x86_64-linux.

x86: correct overflow checking for 16-bit PC-relative relocs
caused linker failure when building 16-bit program in a 32-bit ELF
container. Update GNU_PROPERTY_X86_FEATURE_2_USED with
#define GNU_PROPERTY_X86_FEATURE_2_CODE16 (1U << 12)
to indicate that 16-bit mode instructions are used in the input object:
https://groups.google.com/g/x86-64-abi/c/UvvXWeHIGMA
to indicate that 16-bit mode instructions are used in the object to
allow linker to properly perform relocation overflow check for 16-bit
PC-relative relocations in 16-bit mode instructions.
1. Update x86 assembler to always generate the GNU property note with
GNU_PROPERTY_X86_FEATURE_2_CODE16 for .code16 in ELF object.
2. Update i386 and x86-64 linkers to use 16-bit PC16 relocations if
input object is marked with GNU_PROPERTY_X86_FEATURE_2_CODE16.

The reg_buffer constructor zero-initializes (value-initializes, in C++
speak) the gdb_bytes of the m_registers array. This is not necessary,
as these bytes are only meaningful if the corresponding register_status
is REG_VALID. If the corresponding register_status is REG_VALID, then
they will have been overwritten with the actual register data when
reading the registers from the system into the reg_buffer.
Fix that by removing the empty parenthesis following the new expression,
meaning that the bytes will now be default-initialized, meaning they'll
be left uninitialized. For reference, this is explained here:
https://en.cppreference.com/w/cpp/language/new#Construction
These new expressions were added in 835dcf9261 ("Use std::unique_ptr
in reg_buffer"). As mentioned in that commit message, the use of
value-initialisation was done on purpose to keep existing behavior, but
now there is some data that suggest it would be beneficial not to do it,
which is why I suggest changing it.
This doesn't make a big difference on typical architectures where the
register buffer is not that big. However, on ROCm (AMD GPU), the
register buffer is about 65000 bytes big, so the reg_buffer constructor
shows up in profiling. If you want to make some tests and profile it on
a standard system, it's always possible to change:
- m_registers.reset (new gdb_byte[m_descr->sizeof_raw_registers] ());
+ m_registers.reset (new gdb_byte[65000] ());
and run a program that constantly hits a breakpoint with a false
condition. For example, by doing this change and running the following
program:
static void break_here () {}
int main ()
{
for (int i = 0; i < 100000; i++)
break_here ();
}
with the following GDB incantation:
/usr/bin/time ./gdb -nx --data-directory=data-directory -q test -ex "b break_here if 0" -ex r -batch
I get, for value-intializing:
11.75user 7.68system 0:18.54elapsed 104%CPU (0avgtext+0avgdata 56644maxresident)k
And for default-initializing:

In a bigger series I'm working on, it is convenient to have a
libiberty hash table that manages objects allocated with 'new'. To
make this simpler, I wrote a small template function to serve as a
concise wrapper. Then I realized that this could be reused in a few
other places.

Since the policies of GNU and llvm toolchain are different for now,
current binutils mainline cannot accept any draft extensions, including
rvv, zfh, .... The Clang/LLVM allows these draft stuff on mainline,
but the GNU ld might be used with them, so this causes the link time
problems.
The patch allows ld to link the objects with unknown prefixed extensions,
which are probably generated by LLVM or customized toolchains.

When assembling a forward reference the symbol will be unknown and so during
do_t_adr we cannot set the thumb bit. The bit it set so early to prevent
relaxations that are invalid. i.e. relaxing a Thumb2 to Thumb1 insn when the
symbol is Thumb.
But because it's done so early we miss the case for forward references.
This patch changes it so that we additionally check the thumb bit during the
internal relocation processing.
In principle we should be able to only set the bit during reloc processing but
that would require changes to the other relocations that the instruction could
be relaxed to.
This approach still allows early relaxations (which means that we have less
iteration of internal reloc processing) while still fixing the forward reference
case.

Don't use nullptr, it requires -std=c++11 on versions of gcc prior to
6.1. It would be possible to arrange to pass -std=c++11 automatically
when required (top level configure does that for gcc builds) but that
seems overkill and since we're not up-to-date on the top level config
files would mean someone would need to sync those over.

I exposed a problem with the change in commit 574ec1084d to the outer
loop of _bfd_elf_parse_attributes. "p_end - p >= 4" is better than
"p < p_end - 4" as far as pointer UB is concerned if the size of the
attritbute section is say, 3 bytes. However you do need to ensure p
never exceeds p_end, and that length remaining is kept consistent with
the pointer.
