The gdb_load_shlib function will, on remote targets, try to run some
GDB commands. This obviously isn't going to work unless GDB is
running.
The gdb.trace/tspeed.exp test calls gdb_load_shlib before starting
GDB. Don't do that.
The failure that's triggered is actually DeJaGNU complaining that the
variable $use_gdb_stub doesn't exist, this is only created when GDB is
started. Something like this should trigger a failure:
make check-gdb \
RUNTESTFLAGS="--target_board=remote-gdbserver-on-localhost \
gdb.trace/tspeed.exp"
This commit also adds a check to gdb_load_shlib that GDB is running.
The check is always performed, so this should catch cases where a GDB
developer adds a use of gdb_load_shlib but doesn't test their code
with a remote target.

At -O3 -g -gstrict-dwarf, gcc generates for an optimized out vla 'a' a
DW_TAG_variable with type DW_TAG_array_type containing one
DW_TAG_subrange_type, but without DW_AT_upper_bound or DW_AT_count, which
makes the upper bound value 'unknown':
...
.uleb128 0x15 # (DIE (0x161) DW_TAG_variable)
.long 0xec # DW_AT_abstract_origin
.long 0x170 # DW_AT_type
...

.long 0xc6 # DW_AT_type
.byte 0 # end of children of DIE 0x170
...
But gdb prints '0' for the size of 'a':
...

Ref.: https://bugs.debian.org/904628
It has been reported that gcore's manpage is a bit imprecise when it
comes to two things:
- It doesn't explicity say that the command accepts more than one PID
on its CLI.
- It fails to mention that the argument passed through the "-o" option
is actually a prefix that will be used to compose the corefile's
filename, and not the actual filename.
I decided to give it a try and rewrite parts of the text to further
clarify these two points. I ended up rewording the "Description"
section because, IMHO, it was a bit confuse to understand.
To make things consistent, I've also renamed the "$name" variable in
the gcore.in script, and expanded the usage text.

This patch finally makes partial symbols and partial symtabs
independent of the program space.
Specifically:
It changes add_psymbol_to_list to accept a section index, and changes
the psymbol readers to pass this. At the same time it removes the
code to add the objfile's section offset to the psymbol.
It adds an objfile argument to the psymtab textlow and texthigh
accessors and changes some code to use the raw variants instead.
It removes the "relocate" method from struct quick_symbol_functions,
as it is no longer needed any more.
It changes partial_symbol::address so that the relevant offset is now
applied at the point of use.

Update.
Right now some psymtab code checks whether a psymtab's textlow or
texthigh fields are valid by comparing against 0.
I imagine this is mildly wrong in the current environment, but once
psymtabs are relocated dynamically, it will no longer be correct,
because it will be much more normal to see a psymtab with a textlow of
zero -- this will just mean it appears at the start of the text
section.
This patch introduces validity bits to handle this situation more
nicely, and changes users of the code to follow.

This introduces accessors for the partial symbol table textlow and

at their point of use.
I did this conversion by renaming the fields. I didn't rename the
fields back afterward, thinking that on the off chance that someone
has a patch touching this area, then a merge would helpfully break
their compile.
I looked at making the fields private, but this interferes with the
memset in allocate_psymtab, and I didn't want to chase this down.
This conversion can be done later if need be.

This introduces a partial_symbol::address method. This method takes
an objfile argument. This is necessary so that we can later relocate
a partial symbol at its point of use. It also adds an accessor to
compute the unrelocated value; and a method to be used for setting the
field.
Note that the new method doesn't actually perform any relocation yet.
That will come in a subsequent patch. However, the comments are
written to reflect the intended, rather than the temporary, semantics.

(dump_psymtab, add_psymbol_to_bcache, psym_fill_psymbol_map):
Update.
This is the psymbol analog to the patch to change the representation
of minimal symbols:
https://sourceware.org/ml/gdb-patches/2013-10/msg00524.html
It has the same rationale: namely, that we're going to change the code
to apply psymbol offsets at runtime. This will be done by adding an
argument to the SYMBOL_VALUE_ADDRESS macro -- but since we can't
convert all the symbol types at once, we need a new approach.
Because gdb now is in C++, this patch changes partial_symbol to
inherit from general_symbol_info, rather than renaming the field.
This simplifies code in some places.
Also, as noted before, these macros implement a kind of "phony
polymorphism" that is not actually useful in practice; so this patch
removes the macros in favor of simply referring directly to members.
In a few cases -- obj_section in this patch and the symbol address in
the future -- methods will be used instead.
Note that this removes the blanket memset from add_psymbol_to_bcache.
This hasn't really been needed since bcache was modified to allow
holes in objects and since psymtab took advantage of that. This
deletion was required due to changing partial_symbol to derive from
general_symbol_info.

This deletes it.
Normally I would investigate a fix for the code. However, considering
that the code has been this way a long time (since the first import to
sourceware) and considering that dbxread.c is not as important any
more, I think it's safe to just consider that there's no bug.

This is a relatively straightforward patch to improve support for the
IBM Gekko and IBM Broadway processors. Broadway is functionally
equivalent to the IBM 750CL, while Gekko's functionality is a subset
of theirs. The patch simplifies this reality and adds -mgekko and
-mbroadway as aliases for -m750cl. I didn't feel it was worth wasting
a PPC_OPCODE_* bit to differentiate Gekko. The patch adds a number of
simplified mnemonics for special purpose register access. Notably,
Broadway adds 4 additional IBAT and DBAT registers but these are not
assigned sequential SPR numbers.

Add a maintenance command to disable the DWARF stack unwinders.
Normal users would not need this feature, but it is useful to allow
extended testing of fallback stack unwinding strategies, for example,
prologue scanners.
This is a partial implementation of the idea discussed in pr gdb/8434,
which talks about a generic ability to disable any frame unwinder.
Being able to arbitrarily disable any frame unwinder would be a more
complex patch, and I was unsure how useful such a feature would really
be, however, I can see (and have) a real need to disable DWARF
unwinders. That's why this patch only targets that specific set of
unwinders.
If in the future we find ourselves adding more switches to disable
different unwinders, then we should probably move to a more generic
solution, and remove this patch.

This patch is another attempt at really fixing the multitude of assertions
being seen where symbols of one language are being added to symbol lists of
another language.
In this specific case, the backtrace command (thread apply all bt full) that
is looking for the compunit containing the PC of the thread. That calls
get_prev_frame several times. This function calls (eventually)
dwarf2_frame_prev_register. That eventually ends up calling
find_pc_compunit_symtab.
In this function (find_pc_sect_compunit_symtab actually), we loop over all
compunits, calling the "quick" function dw2_find_pc_sect_compunit_symtab.
That function calls dw2_instantiate_symtab to read in all the CU's symbols.
Now the fun begins.
dw2_do_instantiate_symtab queues the per_cu for reading, using a default
"pretend" language of language_minimal with the expectation that this will
be set later.
The DIEs of this (only queued) CU are then processed.
The first DIE is DW_TAG_compile_unit. That's handled by read_file_scope.
(Nearly) The first thing read_file_scope does is:
get_scope_pc_bounds (die, &lowpc, &highpc, cu);
This function loops over the children of the current DIE (a compile_unit),
looking for bounds. The first such child is a subprogram, and we attempt to
get its bounds. We use dwarf2_attr to get at DW_AT_high_pc.
This subprogram has DW_AT_specification set, so dwarf_attr (via
follow_die_ref/follow_die_offset) will follow that, but follow_die_offset
*also* attempts to load the containing CU for the spec DIE. That spec DIE
lives inside a CU that is a partial_unit and has no language attribute. So
it simply inherits the language from the CU that elicited the read. [That
all happens in follow_die_offset.]
The original CU's language is still language_minimal -- we haven't gotten to
the line in read_file_scope that actually sets the language yet!
And that is the cause of these problems. The call to prepare_one_comp_unit
needs to be the *first* thing that is done when reading a CU so that the
CU's language can be recorded (and inherited by any referenced
partial_units).
Since a test reproducer for this has been so elusive, this patch also adds a
wrapper function around add_symbol_to_list which asserts when adding a
symbol of one language to a list containing symbols of a different language.

PR symtab/23010
* dwarf2read.c (dw2_add_symbol_to_list): New function.
(fixup_go_packaging, new_symbol): Use dw2_add_symbol_to_list
instead of add_symbol_to_list.
(read_file_scope): Call prepare_one_comp_unit before reading
any other DIEs.
configure checks for declarations of free, malloc, and realloc; but
the results are only used in a single spot: utils.c. I think these
checks are long since obsolete, so this patch removes them.
Grepping the entire tree for these HAVE_DECL_ symbols, the only uses
of possible interest to gdb come from bfd/sysdep.h; but this is not
(nor should be) included by gdb. (And furthermore I think the code
there is probably also obsolete.)

* utils.c (malloc, realloc, free): Don't declare.
* configure, config.in: Rebuild.
* configure.ac: Don't check for declarations of free, malloc, or
realloc.
Use unsigned int to iterate through multi-length vector operands to avoid
sign-extension.
* config/tc-i386.c (build_vex_prefix): Use unsigned int to
iterate through multi-length vector operands.
(build_evex_prefix): Likewise.
Just like for their AVX counterparts and CVTSI2S{D,S}, a memory source
here is ambiguous and hence
- in source files should be qualified with a suitable suffix or operand
size specifier (not doing so is an error in Intel mode, and will gain
a diagnostic in AT&T mode in the future),
- in disassembly should be properly suffixed (the Intel operand size
specifiers were emitted correctly already).
