Provide a simple example simulator for people porting to new targets
to use as a reference. This one has the advantage of being used by
people and having a fun program available for it.
It doesn't require a special target -- the example simulators can be
built for any existing port.
Now that we have the common automake build with support for build-time
programs working, we can integrate the common tests into the default
`make check` flow.
This doesn't actually create one `run` program like other projects,
but creates multiple `run-$arch` targets. While it might not seem
that useful initially, this has some nice properties:
- Allows us to quickly build all sim targets in a single tree.
- Positions us better for converting targets over to a proper
multitarget build+install.
We don't have the ability to actually run tests against them, but
that's due to a limitation in gas: it doesn't support multitarget.
If that ever changes, we should be able to turn on our tests too.
We can improve the test framework to fallback to a system toolchain
if available to help mitigate that.
This simplifies the build a bit (especially for deps in port subdirs),
and avoids recursive make. This in turn speeds up the build, and sets
us up for multi-target.
I noticed it was unused. I think that makes sense, as it shows that
objfile_per_bfd_storage is not specific to one objfile (it can be shared
by multiple objfiles that have the same bfd).
There is one thing I wonder though, maybe I'm missing something. If
the BFD doesn't require relocation, get_objfile_bfd_data stores the
newly allocated object in objfiles_bfd_data, so we can assume that
objfiles_bfd_data is the owner of the object. When the bfd's refcount
drops to 0, the corresponding objfile_per_bfd_storage object in
objfiles_bfd_data is deleted.
But if the BFD requires relocation, get_objfile_bfd_data returns a newly
allocated object that isn't kept anywhere else (and isn't shared). So
the objfile becomes the owner of the objfile_per_bfd_storage object. In
objfile::~objfile, we have this:
if (obfd)
gdb_bfd_unref (obfd);
else
delete per_bfd;
I'm thinking that obfd could be non-nullptr, and it could require
relocation. In that case, it would never be freed. Anyway, that's not
really connected to this patch.

Since partial_symtab is supposed to be objfile-independent (since series
[1]), I think it would make sense for partial_symtab to not take an
objfile as a parameter in its constructor.
This patch replaces that parameter with an objfile_per_bfd_storage
parameter.
The objfile is used for two things:
- to get the objfile_name, for debug messages. We can get that name
from the bfd instead.
- to intern the partial symtab filename. Even though it goes through
an objfile method, the request is actually forwarded to the
underlying objfile_per_bfd_storage. So we can ask the new
objfile_per_bfd_storage instead.
In order to get a reference to the BFD from the objfile_per_bfd_storage,
the BFD is saved in the objfile_per_bfd_storage object.

patch avoids the DeprecationWarning. This warning is visible to users

The change in PR19011 changed the image load address from being in the lower
32-bit address space to the higher 64-bit address space.
However when you have a weak undef symbol which stays undef at the end of
linking the linker has to resolve this (Windows loader does not support undef
symbols). As such typically these would resolve to 0.
The relocation used for these weak symbols are the normal 32-bit PC_REL call
relocs. So when doing the overflow check LD checks if the distance between the
symbol and the call is within range. However now that the load address is
> 32-bits and the symbol val is 0 this overflow check will always fail.
As such the linker gives a bogus error. This patch makes the linker not emit
the overflow failure but chooses to still let the check be performed (as it's
mid-end code).
One down side of this is that it does break the common convention that the call
be to sym at 0x0. i.e. before you'd get
401015: 74 05 je 40101c
401017: e8 e4 ef bf ff callq 0
and now you get
140001015: 74 05 je 14000101c
140001017: e8 e4 ef ff bf call 100000000
since the call is PC_REL there's no way to get the range large enough to
resolve to 0. As such I have chosen to leave it as the furthest simple range
that we can still represent.
By only ignoring the error we leave the symbol value itself to still be 0
such that the if(<symbol>) checks still work correctly.

I had written a DWARF location expression like
DW_OP_const1u
DW_OP_stack_value
... and was surprised to see that the DW_OP_stack_value didn't appear
in the "readelf" output.
The problem here is that DW_OP_const1u requires an operand, but
neither the DWARF assembler nor gas diagnosed this problem.
This patch adds some checking to Dwarf::_location to try to avoid this
in the future. The checking is done via a helper proc that also

New in v2:
- Disable sharing only for -readnow objfiles, not all objfiles.
As described in PR 27541, we hit an internal error when loading a binary
the standard way and then loading it with the -readnow option:
$ ./gdb -nx -q --data-directory=data-directory ~/a.out -ex "set confirm off" -ex "file -readnow ~/a.out"
Reading symbols from /home/simark/a.out...

/home/simark/src/binutils-gdb/gdb/dwarf2/read.c:8098: internal-error: void create_all_comp_units(dwarf2_per_objfile*): Assertion `per_objfile->per_bfd->all_comp_units.empty ()' failed.
This is a recurring problem that exposes a design issue in the DWARF
per-BFD sharing feature. Things work well when loading a binary with
the same method (with/without index, with/without readnow) twice in a
row. But they don't work so well when loading a binary with different
methods. See this previous fix, for example:
efb763a5ea ("gdb: check for partial symtab presence in dwarf2_initialize_objfile")
That one handled the case where the first load is normal (uses partial
symbols) and the second load uses an index.
The problem is that when loading an objfile with a method A, we create a
dwarf2_per_bfd and some dwarf2_per_cu_data and initialize them with the
data belonging to that method. When loading another obfile sharing the
same BFD but with a different method B, it's not clear how to re-use the
dwarf2_per_bfd/dwarf2_per_cu_data previously created, because they
contain the data specific to method A.
I think the most sensible fix would be to not share a dwarf2_per_bfd
between two objfiles loaded with different methods. That means that two
objfiles sharing the same BFD and loaded the same way would share a
dwarf2_per_bfd. Two objfiles sharing the same BFD but loaded with
different methods would use two different dwarf2_per_bfd structures.
However, this isn't a trivial change. So to fix the known issue quickly
(including in the gdb 10 branch), this patch just disables all
dwarf2_per_bfd sharing for objfiles using READNOW.
Generalize the gdb.base/index-cache-load-twice.exp test to test all
the possible combinations of loading a file with partial symtabs, index
and readnow. Move it to gdb.dwarf2, since it really exercises features
of the DWARF reader.

The former two are unused anyway. And having such constants isn't very
helpful either, when they live in a place where updating the register
table wouldn't even allow noticing the need to adjust these constants.
st(1) ... st(7) will never be looked up in the hash table, so there's no
point inserting the entries. It's also not really necessary to do a 2nd
hash lookup after parsing the register number, nor is there a real
reason for having both st and st(0) entries. Plus we can easily do away
with the need for st to be first in the table.
