This avoids some manual memory management.
cmdpy_init correctly transfers ownership of the name to the
cmd_list_element, as it sets the name_allocated flag. However,
cmdpy_init (and add_setshow_generic) doesn't, it looks like the name is
just leaked. This is a bit tricky, because it actually creates two
commands (one set and one show), it would take a bit of refactoring of
the command code to give each their own allocated copy. For now, just
keep doing what the current code does but in a more explicit fashion,
with an explicit release.

The recent change to correct the detection of thumb2 object files
resulted in a ld test for veneering starting to fail. The problem was
the test itself, which was incorrectly expecting thumb1 type far-call
veneers instead of the thumb2 flavour. We already have a dump file of
the expected form, so the fix is to change the expected output
accordingly.

* testsuite/ld-arm/arm-elf.exp (farcall test for v8-m.mainline):
Correct expected output.
Previously, the prefixname field of struct cmd_list_element was manually
set for prefix commands. This seems verbose and error prone as it
required every single call to functions adding prefix commands to
specify the prefix name while the same information can be easily
generated.
Historically, this was not possible as the prefix field was null for
many commands, but this was fixed in commit
3f4d92ebdf by Philippe Waroquiers, so
we can rely on the prefix field being set when generating the prefix
name.
This commit also fixes a use after free in this scenario:
* A command gets created via Python (using the gdb.Command class).
The prefix name member is dynamically allocated.
* An alias to the new command is created. The alias's prefixname is set
to point to the prefixname for the original command with a direct
assignment.
* A new command with the same name as the Python command is created.
* The object for the original Python command gets freed and its
prefixname gets freed as well.
* The alias is updated to point to the new command, but its prefixname
is not updated so it keeps pointing to the freed one.

it can now be generated automatically. Update all callers.

name to use the method, and remove all code setting it.

prefixname member as it's now a method.
(cmdpy_function): Determine if the command is a prefix by
looking at prefixlist, not prefixname.
Not quite infinite but much longer than it need be. The problem is

This was detected when a user accidentally tried to build a shared
library using armv8-m.main objects. The resulting error was "warning:
thumb-1 mode PLT generation not currently supported". Something was
clearly wrong because v8-m.main is a thumb-2 variant.
It turns out that the code to detect thumb-2 in object files hadn't
been updated for the extended definition of Tag_THUMB_ISA_use to
support the value 3, meaning 'work it out for yourself from the
architecture tag'; something that is now necessary given that the line
between thumb-1 and thumb-2 has become blurred over time.
Another problem with the function doing this calculation was that the
absence of this tag (implying a default value 0) should mean use of
thumb code was NOT permitted. However, the code went on to look at
the architecture flags and decide that it could ignore this if the
architecture flags said that thumb2 features were available, thus
completely ignoring the intended meaning.

The test-case gdb.base/watch_thread_num.exp contains an infrun regexp:

which doesn't trigger because:
- the test-case doesn't contain "set debug infrun 1", and
- if we hack the test-case to add this, the regexp doesn't match
because "[infrun] " is printed instead.

Breakpoint location is modified to "return" statement which is
outside the DO loop. Because the label 100 of DO loop should get
executed for each iteration as shared in this external link:
http://www-pnp.physics.ox.ac.uk/~gronbech/intfor/node18.html.
flang compiler is following this fortran standard, whereas gfortran
compiler is not following, hence the test case is passing with
gfortran and failing with flang. but to correct this gfortran
behavior, bug has been filed in bugzilla
(https://gcc.gnu.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=99816). As reported in
the bug, with gfortran, label 100 of DO loop is reached only after
the completion of the entire DO loop. Hence at label 100, all the
array elements are set and printing of array element a(2) succeeds.
whereas with flang, when we are at label 100 for first time, array
element a(2) is not yet set, only a(1) is set, hence moving the
breakpoint location to outside the DO loop, so that once we are
outside the DO loop, we can print any of the array elements. This
change in test case is done irrespective of any fortran compiler.

PR 27614 shows that gdb-add-index fails to generate the index when its

The following one liner illustrates the reported problem:
$ echo 'int main(){}'|gcc -g -x c -;ln -s a.out symlink;gdb-add-index symlink

GDB generates the .gdb-index file with a name that matches the name of
the actual program (a.out.gdb-index here), not the symlink that

gdb/guile: perform tilde expansion when sourcing guile scripts
A test was added that tries to source a guile script from the users
HOME directory. In order to achieve this the test (temporarily)
modifies $HOME to point into the binutils-gdb source tree.
The problem with this is that sourcing a guile script can cause the
guile script to be byte compiled and written into a .cache/ directory,
which is stored .... in the $HOME directory.
The result was that the test added in the above commit would cause a
.cache/ directory to be added into the binutils-gdb source tree.
In this commit the test is updated to create a new directory in the
build tree, the file we want to source is copied over, and $HOME is
set to point at the location in the build tree. Now when the test is
run the .cache/ directory is created in the build tree, leaving the
source tree untouched.
gdb/testsuite/ChangeLog:
* gdb.guile/guile.exp: Don't use the source directory as a
temporary HOME directory.
This test has a little oversight: the test procedure doesn't actually
use its parameters, the commands and expected patterns are hard-coded,
so we always test with i386:x86-64, instead of with the three arches.
Fix that.
gdb/testsuite/ChangeLog:
* gdb.arch/amd64-osabi.exp (test_osabi_none): Use the
parameters.

I was looking at some "set debug lin-lwp" logs, and saw that a thread
received the "Child exited" signal. It took me a moment to realize that
this was SIGCHLD. I then thought that it would be nice for
status_to_str to show the signal name (SIGCHLD) in addition to the
description "Child exited", since people are much more used to referring
to signals using their names.
Fortunately, libiberty contains a handy function to get the signal name
from the signal number, strsigno, use that.
The output of "set debug lin-lwp" now looks like:
