This is the beginning of a series of patches where the goal is to turn
the target ops vector into a class and all the target op function
pointers into methods of this class.
Currently, the target ops is a struct of function pointers. At the
end of the series, it becomes a class with methods, and the existing
low target definitions become subclasses. That is, we end up with the
following class hierarchy:
process_stratum_target
^
|-- linux-low
|-- lynx-low
|-- nto-low
|-- win32-low
process_stratum_target either defines the default behavior for the
target ops or leaves them as pure virtual for the subclasses to
override.
The transformation is done by first introducing a helper class, called
'process_target', that is initially empty. An instance of this class
is added to the end of the current target ops vector. This new field
is called 'pt'. We will gradually carry target ops to the new class,
one by one, whereas the invocation of the target op will be converted
to a method call on 'pt'.
For instance, target op 'attach' is currently invoked as
(*the_target->attach) (args)
After moving 'attach' as a method to 'process_target', it will be
invoked as
the_target->pt->attach (args)
In this process, the concrete target vector definitions
(e.g. linux-low, win32-low, nto-low, etc.) are turned into derived
classes of 'process_target', so that they can either inherit the
default behavior of the target ops or can override the method.
We prefer to make this transition gradually rather than in a single
giant patch, to yield bite-size patches. The goal is that after each
patch gdbserver will still be buildable and testable.
The general rule of thumb when converting a target op to a method is
this:
(1) If the function call is protected with a NULL-check with an
obvious default behavior, simply implement that default behavior in
the base class (e.g.: supports_non_stop).
(2) If there is no NULL-check guard, the method becomes pure
virtual, and the derived targets are required to implement the method
(e.g.: attach).
(3) If there is a NULL-check but no apparent default behavior, or if
the NULL-check is utilized to populate a feature support packet,
introduce a 'supports_XYZ' method (e.g.: pid_to_exec_file).
The overall strategy is to preserve the existing behavior as much as
possible.
When we're done moving all the target ops into 'process_target', the
target op vector will contain nothing but the field 'pt'. At that
point, the auxiliary class 'process_target' will simply meld into
'process_stratum_target' and the method calls of the form
'the_target->pt->xyz' will be turned into 'the_target->xyz'.
The "linux-low" target has been built and reg-tested on X86_64 Linux
(Ubuntu). The "win32-low" target has been built (but not tested) via
cross-compilation to a x86_64-w64-mingw32 target. The "lynx-low" and
"nto-low" targets were neither built nor tested.

GCC's config/ChangeLog since the last time this merge was done
(in the binutils-gdb commit 0b4d000cc4) is included at the
end of this commit message.
It is worth noting that the binutils-gdb commit 301a9420d9
added the file config/debuginfod.m4 which is not present in GCC's
config/ directory. This file is preserved, unmodified, after this
commit.
In order to regenerate all of the configure files, I configured with
--enable-maintainer-mode, and built the 'all' target. I then did the
same thing on a source tree without this patch, and only committed
those files that changed when this patch was added.

Implement RISC-V/Linux support for both RV64 and RV32 systems, including
XML target description handling based on features determined, GPR and
FPR regset support including dynamic sizing of the latter, and software
breakpoint handling. Define two NT_FPREGSET regsets of a different size
matching the FPR sizes supported for generic `gdbserver' code to pick
from according to what the OS supplies.
Also handle a glibc bug where ELF_NFPREG is defined in terms of NFPREG,
however NFPREG is nowhere defined.

This changes gdbserver so that it no longer builds its own gnulib and
libiberty. Instead, it now relies on the ones that were already built
at the top level.
gdbsupport is still built specially for gdbserver. This is more
complicated and will be tackled in a subsequent patch.

For the same reasons outlined in the previous patch, this patch renames
gdbserver source files to .cc.
I have moved the "-x c++" switch to only those rules that require it.
gdbserver/ChangeLog:
* Makefile.in: Rename source files from .c to .cc.
* %.c: Rename to %.cc.
* configure.ac: Rename server.c to server.cc.
* configure: Re-generate.
This patch renames the .c source files in gdbsupport to .cc.
In the gdb directory, there is an argument against renaming the source
files, which is that it makes using some git commands more difficult to
do archeology. Some commands have some kind of "follow" option that
makes git try to follow renames, but it doesn't work in all situations.
Given that we have just moved the gdbsupport directory, that argument
doesn't hold for source files in that directory. I therefore suggest
renaming them to .cc, so that they are automatically recognized as C++
by various tools and editors.
The original motivation behind this is that when building gdbsupport
with clang, I get:
CC agent.o
clang: error: treating 'c' input as 'c++' when in C++ mode, this behavior is deprecated [-Werror,-Wdeprecated]
In the gdb/ directory, we make clang happy by passing "-x c++". We
could do this in gdbsupport too, but I think that renaming the files is
a better long-term solution.
gdbserver still does its own build of gdbsupport, so a few changes in
its Makefile are necessary.
gdbsupport/ChangeLog:
* Makefile.am: Rename source files from .c to .cc.
(CC, CFLAGS): Don't override.
(AM_CFLAGS): Rename to ...
(AM_CXXFLAGS): ... this.
* Makefile.in: Re-generate.
* %.c: Rename to %.cc.
gdbserver/ChangeLog:
* Makefile.in: Rename gdbsupport source files from .c to .cc.
handle_v_kill uses signal_pid because win32 doesn't support multi-process.

Can't kill process

* win32-low.c (win32_create_inferior): Set signal_pid.
Correct fallout from commit 919adfe840 ("Move gdbserver to top level")
and revert to not building `gdbserver' in a cross-configuration, that is
where host != target, matching the documented behaviour. We have no way
to support non-native `gdbserver', and native `gdbserver' is usually of
no use with cross-GDB of the chosen host.

This patch moves gdbserver to the top level.
This patch is as close to a pure move as possible -- gdbserver still
builds its own variant of gnulib and gdbsupport. Changing this will
be done in a separate patch.
[v2] Note that, per Simon's review comment, this patch changes the
tree so that gdbserver is not built for or1k or score. This makes
sense, because there is apparently not actually a gdbserver port here.
[v3] This version of the patch also splits out some configury into a
new file, gdbserver/configure.host, so that the top-level configure
script can simply rely on it in order to decide whether gdbserver
should be built.
[v4] This version adds documentation and removes some unnecessary
top-level dependencies.
[v5] Update docs to mention "make all-gdbserver" and change how
top-level configure decides whether to build gdbserver, switching to a
single, shared script.
Tested by the buildbot.
