Use the pattern from other projects where we generate the html pages
in a dir named the same as the project. So now we have:
gas/doc/gas.html - single html page
gas/doc/gas/ - multiple html pages
This works for projects that have a doc/ subdir already, but gprof &
ld require a little tweaking since they generate their docs in their
respective toplevels.
This better matches other GNU projects like autoconf/automake where
the html manual is the single page form. We'll support the multi-page
form in a follow up change.

Currently, in order to tell whether support for disabling address
space randomization on Linux is available, GDB checks if the
personality syscall works, at configure time. I.e., it does a run
test, instead of a compile/link test:
AC_RUN_IFELSE([PERSONALITY_TEST],
[have_personality=true],
[have_personality=false],
This is a bit bogus, because the machine the build is done on may not
(and is when you consider distro gdbs) be the machine that eventually
runs gdb. It would be better if this were a compile/link test
instead, and then at runtime, GDB coped with the personality syscall
failing. Actually, GDB already copes.
One environment where this is problematic is building GDB in a Docker
container -- by default, Docker runs the container with seccomp, with
a profile that disables the personality syscall. You can tell Docker
to use a less restricted seccomp profile, but I think we should just
fix it in GDB.
"man 2 personality" says:
This system call first appeared in Linux 1.1.20 (and thus first
in a stable kernel release with Linux 1.2.0); library support
was added in glibc 2.3.
...
ADDR_NO_RANDOMIZE (since Linux 2.6.12)
With this flag set, disable address-space-layout randomization.
glibc 2.3 was released in 2002.
Linux 2.6.12 was released in 2005.
The original patch that added the configure checks was submitted in
2008. The first version of the patch that was submitted to the list
called personality from common code:
https://sourceware.org/pipermail/gdb-patches/2008-June/058204.html
and then was moved to Linux-specific code:
https://sourceware.org/pipermail/gdb-patches/2008-June/058209.html
Since HAVE_PERSONALITY is only checked in Linux code, and
ADDR_NO_RANDOMIZE exists for over 15 years, I propose just completely
removing the configure checks.
If for some odd reason, some remotely modern system still needs a
configure check, then we can revert this commit but drop the
AC_RUN_IFELSE in favor of always doing the AC_LINK_IFELSE
cross-compile fallback.

* linux-nat.c (linux_nat_target::supports_disable_randomization):

Lancelot pointed out that since the refactor at:

Make sure the local static buffer is large enough, and simplify the

Before this patch:
(gdb) source ~/script.scm
ERROR: In procedure apply-smob/1:
ERROR: In procedure primitive-load-path: Unable to find file "~/script.scm" in load path
Error while executing Scheme code.
(gdb)
This is because the path is not tilde expanded. In contrast, when
sourcing a .py or .gdb script the path is tilde expanded.
This commit fixes this oversight, and allows the above source command
to work as expected.
The tilde expansion is done in the generic GDB code before we call the
sourcer function for any particular extension language.
gdb/ChangeLog:
* cli/cli-cmds.c: Add 'gdbsupport/gdb_tilde_expand.h'

(source_script_with_search): Perform tilde expansion.
gdb/testsuite/ChangeLog:
* gdb.guile/guile.exp: Add an extra test.
I noticed gdb.base/ptype-offsets.exp failing occasionally, this was
due to lines like this in the test script:
send_gdb "set print type hex on\n"
As this does not match the '(gdb)' prompt that is produced, the prompt
would sometimes be matched against the next test, causing the next
test to think its output was missing and fail.
Fix this by switching to:
gdb_test_no_output "set print type hex on"
gdb/testsuite/ChangeLog:
* gdb.base/ptype-offsets.exp: Replace use of send_gdb with
gdb_test_no_output.
To make the management of memory automatic.
As to why I chose to make this an std::string and not an
std::unique_xmalloc_ptr<char>: some parts of the code consider both a
NULL value and an empty string value to mean "no filename".
target_desc_info_from_user_p, however, doesn't check for a non-NULL but
empty string value. So it seems like having two ways of denoting "no
filename" can lead to these kinds of inconsistencies. Using
std::string, "no filename" is only represented by an empty value.
As a bonus, using an std::string lets us copy target_desc_info objects
using the default assignment operator.

In my opinion, the target_desc_fetched, current_target_desc and
target_description_filename macros in target-descriptions.c are not very
useful. I don't think it's useful to hide that they operate on the
current inferior, as everything currently works under the assumption
that the various tdesc commands operate on the current inferior, and I
don't see that changing in the foreseeable future.
This change also avoids having multiple unnecessary calls to
current_inferior and get_tdesc_info per function.

target_stack::unpush needs to get the target beneath the target being
unpushed to update the m_top field (which keeps the stratum of the
top-most target). It currently does so using target_ops::beneath, which
uses the target stack of the current inferior. The target stack of the
current inferior is the same as the `this` in the unpush method.
Avoid this detour and remove this reference to the current inferior by
calling target_ops::find_beneath and passing `this` to find the target
beneath `t` in the target stack that is `this`.
gdb/ChangeLog:
* target.c (target_stack::unpush): Call target_ops::find_beneath
to get the target beneath `t`.

The target_close function currently checks that the target to be closed
isn't pushed in the current inferior:
gdb_assert (!current_inferior ()->target_is_pushed (targ));
Normally, a target is closed when its refcount has dropped to 0, due to
not being used in any inferior anymore. I think it would make sense to
change that assert to not only check in the current inferior, but to
check in all inferiors. It would be quite bad (and a bug) to close a
target while it's still pushed in one of the non-current inferiors.
gdb/ChangeLog:
* target.c (target_close): Check in all inferiors that the
target is not pushed.

Re-format all Python files using black [1] version 21.4b0. The goal is
that from now on, we keep all Python files formatted using black. And
that we never have to discuss formatting during review (for these files
at least) ever again.
One change is needed in gdb.python/py-prettyprint.exp, because it
matches the string representation of an exception, which shows source
code. So the change in formatting must be replicated in the expected
regexp.
To document our usage of black I plan on adding this to the "GDB Python
Coding Standards" wiki page [2]:
--8<--
All Python source files under the `gdb/` directory must be formatted
using black version 21.4b0.
This specific version can be installed using:
$ pip3 install 'black == 21.4b0'
All you need to do to re-format files is run `black <file/directory>`,
and black will re-format any Python file it finds in there. It runs
quite fast, so the simplest is to do:
$ black gdb/
from the top-level.
If you notice that black produces changes unrelated to your patch, it's
probably because someone forgot to run it before you. In this case,
don't include unrelated hunks in your patch. Push an obvious patch
fixing the formatting and rebase your work on top of that.

Once this is merged, I plan on setting a up an `ignoreRevsFile`
config so that git-blame ignores this commit, as described here:
https://github.com/psf/black#migrating-your-code-style-without-ruining-git-blame
I also plan on working on a git commit hook (checked in the repo) to
automatically check the formatting of the Python files on commit.
