Currently, when `mips_elf_calculate_relocation' is asked to relocate an
undefined symbol, it reports an error or a warning and immediately
returns without performing the relocation. This is fine if the link
fails, but if unresolved_syms_in_objects == RM_GENERATE_WARNING, the
link will continue and output some unrelocated code, which is a
regression from commit e7e2196da3 ("MIPS/BFD: Correctly report

Fix this by continuing after calling the `undefined_symbol' hook unless

The gcore shell script (gdb/gcore.in) doesn't quote its variables
enough.
For example, trying to write a core file with - say - a space
ungraciously fails like this:
$ gcore -o 'foo bar' 6270
/usr/bin/gcore: line 92: [: foo: binary operator expected
gcore: failed to create foo bar.6270
Similarly, one can inject meta characters like * (by accident)
that may yield unexpected results, e.g. as in:
$ gcore -o foobar '*'
This change fixes these issues in several places.
Aso, since the script uses array syntax, the patch changes the
the shell in the first line from `/bin/sh` to /bin/bash`.
POSIX doesn't specify the array syntax for shell, thus, the
script doesn't work on systems where /bin/sh is linked to - say -
dash.
Since the source gcore.in already is processed by a pre-processor
one could even auto-detect the path to bash and thus dynamically
generate the first line. For systems where bash isn't available
via /bin/bash. But I think this would be overkill and /bin/bash
is good enough as most systems probably have it.

Pedro pointed out that some Rust tests were failing after the recent
enum change. I was able to reproduce this even with the most current
Rust compiler -- no test was failing, but rather the gdb internal
error was causing an "untested" result, which I didn't notice.
The internal error is caused by a bad assertion in
alloc_discriminant_info. This happened because, in an earlier version
of the patch, the discriminant could only appear at index 0. However,
it can now appear anywhere. This patch fixes the assertion in the
obvious way, and adds a second assertion to ensure that the
discriminant is also correct.
Fixing this revealed a real failure, which was caused by using the
wrong base name when computing the name of a univariant enum's sole
member. This is also fixed here.
Tested by running the gdb.rust tests with rustc 1.23 and
double-checking the summary:
# of expected passes 276
Note that if you try this yourself, it is still possible to get an
"untested" result from traits.exp if your Rust compiler is old enough.

I've always found the code in ARM backend of gas to control what
CPU/architecture and FPU are selected by the user and to support
autodetection of features complex and confusing. Chief among the
issues I have with that code is the lack of comments to explain
the meaning of the various variables. This patch addresses that
and much more:
- add comments to explain meaning of all arm_feature_set variables
- keep track of currently selected CPU, extensions and FPU in a separate
set of new variables
- make naming of variable more consistent
- remove dead code
- simplify handling of extensions
The overall approach is as follows:
* restrict m*_opt variable to hold the feature bits of the
corresponding mcpu/march/mfpu command-line options
* record selected CPU, extensions and FPU in new selected_* during
md_begin
* whenever a .cpu/.arch/.arch_extension/.fpu directive is met, update
the corresponding selected_* variables (eg. selected_arch, then
selected_cpu for a .cpu or .arch directive) and then finally
cpu_variant from them
* pass extension feature set pointer by value to arm_parse_extension
since it's only ever called from arm_parse_cpu and arm_parse_arch
which allocate the extension feature set themselves
* likewise, remove allocation from s_arm_arch_extension since the use
of arm_feature_set structure for selected_ext rather than a pointer
alleviate the need for it
* in autodetection mode, only set all CPU fits in cpu_variant but leave
selected_cpu* variables unset
* in md_begin, remove dead "else if" to set a default FPU when no FPU
was selected. Setting a default FPU based on CPU as did the code
before it turn dead should be based on the default FPU field of the
CPU and architecture table as will be done in a separate patch. Logic
is wrong anyway since it sets VFP2 as default FPU for Armv6-M and
Armv7-M
Hopefully that should be enough to understand the change but if not feel
free to ask questions about the patch. While I believe the new code is
easier to understand, it remains complex and the old one was even more
complex so the change is difficult to understand.

By removing the supports_btrace gdbserver target method we relied on GDB
trying to enable branch tracing and failing on the attempt.
For targets that do not provide the btrace methods, however, an initial
request from GDB for the branch trace configuration to detect whether
gdbserver is already recording resulted in a protocol error.
Have the btrace target methods throw a "Target does not suppor branch
tracing" error and be prepared to handle exceptions in all functions that
call btrace target methods. We therefore turn the target_* macros into
static inline functions.
Also remove the additional btrace target method checks that resulted in
the above protocol error.

Simon mentioned on IRC that, after the startup-with-shell feature has
been implemented on gdbserver, it is not possible to specify a
filename-only binary, like:
$ gdbserver :1234 a.out
/bin/bash: line 0: exec: a.out: not found
During startup program exited with code 127.
Exiting
This happens on systems where the current directory "." is not listed
in the PATH environment variable. Although including "." in the PATH
variable is a possible workaround, this can be considered a regression
because before startup-with-shell it was possible to use only the
filename (due to reason that gdbserver used "exec*" directly).
The idea of the patch is to verify if the program path provided by the
user (or by the remote protocol) contains a directory separator
character. If it doesn't, it means we're dealing with a filename-only
binary, so we call "gdb_abspath" to properly expand it and transform
it into a full path. Otherwise, we leave the program path untouched.
This mimicks the behaviour seen on GDB (look at "openp" and
"attach_inferior", for example).
I am also submitting a testcase which exercises the scenario described
above. This test requires gdbserver to be executed in a different CWD
than the original, so I also created a helper function, "with_cwd" (on
testsuite/lib/gdb.exp), which takes care of cd'ing into and out of the
specified dir.

This commit moves the path manipulation routines found on utils.c to a
new common/pathstuff.c, and updates the Makefile.in's accordingly.
The routines moved are "gdb_realpath", "gdb_realpath_keepfile" and
"gdb_abspath".
This will be needed because gdbserver will have to call "gdb_abspath"
on my next patch, which implements a way to expand the path of the
inferior provided by the user in order to allow specifying just the
binary name when starting gdbserver, like:
$ gdbserver :1234 a.out
With the recent addition of the startup-with-shell feature on
gdbserver, this scenario doesn't work anymore if the user doesn't have
the current directory listed in the PATH variable.
I had to do a minor adjustment on "gdb_abspath" because we don't have
access to "tilde_expand" on gdbserver, so now the function is using
"gdb_tilde_expand" instead. Otherwise, the code is the same.

When multiple threads within a process wish to report STOPPED events
from wait(), the kernel picks one thread event as the thread event to
report. The chosen thread event is retrieved via PT_LWPINFO by
passing the process ID as the request pid. If multiple events are
pending, then the subsequent wait() after resuming a process will
report another STOPPED event after resuming the process to handle the
next thread event and so on.
A single thread event is cleared as a side effect of resuming the
process with PT_CONTINUE, PT_STEP, etc. In older kernels, however,
the request pid was used to select which thread's event was cleared
rather than always clearing the event that was just reported. To
avoid clearing the event of the wrong LWP, always pass the process ID
instead of an LWP ID to PT_CONTINUE or PT_SYSCALL.
In the case of stepping, the process ID cannot be used with PT_STEP
since it would step the thread that reported an event which may not be
the thread indicated by PTID. For stepping, use PT_SETSTEP to enable
stepping on the desired thread before resuming the process via
PT_CONTINUE instead of using PT_STEP.
This manifested as a failure in the
gdb.threads/continue-pending-status.exp test. Specifically, if thread
2 reported a breakpoint and the test thus switched to thread 3 before
continuing, thread 3's event (if any) was discarded and thread 2's
breakpoint remained pending and was reported a second time as a
duplicate event. As a result, the PC was decremented twice for the
same breakpoint resulting in an illegal instruction fault on x86.

This changes target_write_memory_blocks to use std::vector, rather
than VEC. This allows the removal of some cleanups.
This version incorporates the additions that Simon made.
Regression tested by the buildbot.

Among the macros to manipulate an arm_feature_set structure is the
ARM_FEATURE_COPY which copy the value of a feature set into another.
This can be achieved with a simple assignement which most of the
existing code does. This patch removes the last 2 uses of that macro and
remove the macro altogether.

On x86, some instructions have alternate shorter encodings:
1. When the upper 32 bits of destination registers of
andq $imm31, %r64
testq $imm31, %r64
xorq %r64, %r64
subq %r64, %r64
known to be zero, we can encode them without the REX_W bit:
andl $imm31, %r32
testl $imm31, %r32
xorl %r32, %r32
subl %r32, %r32
This optimization is enabled with -O, -O2 and -Os.
2. Since 0xb0 mov with 32-bit destination registers zero-extends 32-bit
immediate to 64-bit destination register, we can use it to encode 64-bit
mov with 32-bit immediates. This optimization is enabled with -O, -O2
and -Os.
3. Since the upper bits of destination registers of VEX128 and EVEX128
instructions are extended to zero, if all bits of destination registers
of AVX256 or AVX512 instructions are zero, we can use VEX128 or EVEX128
encoding to encode AVX256 or AVX512 instructions. When 2 source
registers are identical, AVX256 and AVX512 andn and xor instructions:
VOP %reg, %reg, %dest_reg
can be encoded with
VOP128 %reg, %reg, %dest_reg
This optimization is enabled with -O2 and -Os.
4. 16-bit, 32-bit and 64-bit register tests with immediate may be
encoded as 8-bit register test with immediate. This optimization is
enabled with -Os.
This patch does:
1. Add {nooptimize} pseudo prefix to disable instruction size
optimization.
2. Add optimize to i386_opcode_modifier to tell assembler that encoding
of an instruction may be optimized.
