gdb/ChangeLog
Update copyright year range in copyright header of all GDB files.
ptrace.m4, providing the GDB_AC_PTRACE autoconf macro, is used by gdb,
gdbserver and gdbsupport. I think it would make sense to move it to
gdbsupport.
gdb/ChangeLog:
* acinclude.m4: Update ptrace.m4 path.
* ptrace.m4: Moved to gdbsupport.
gdbserver/ChangeLog:
* acinclude.m4: Update ptrace.m4 path.
gdbsupport/ChangeLog:
* Makefile.in: Re-generate.
* acinclude.m4: Update ptrace.m4 path.
* ptrace.m4: Move here.

This moves the simple_search_memory function to a new file,
gdbsupport/search.cc. The API is slightly changed to make it more
general. This generality is useful for wiring it to gdbserver, and
also for unit testing.

* search.h: New file.
* search.cc: New file.
GDB currently doesn't build on 32-bit Solaris:
* On Solaris 11.4/x86:
In file included from /usr/include/sys/procfs.h:26,
from /vol/src/gnu/gdb/hg/master/dist/gdb/i386-sol2-nat.c:24:
/usr/include/sys/old_procfs.h:31:2: error: #error "Cannot use procfs in the large file compilation environment"
#error "Cannot use procfs in the large file compilation environment"
^~~~~
* On Solaris 11.3/x86 there are several more instances of this.
The interaction between procfs and large-file support historically has
been a royal mess on Solaris:
* There are two versions of the procfs interface:
** The old ioctl-based /proc, deprecated and not used any longer in
either gdb or binutils.
** The `new' (introduced in Solaris 2.6, 1997) structured /proc.
* There are two headers one can possibly include:
** <procfs.h> which only provides the structured /proc, definining
_STRUCTURED_PROC=1 and then including ...
** <sys/procfs.h> which defaults to _STRUCTURED_PROC=0, the ioctl-based
/proc, but provides structured /proc if _STRUCTURED_PROC == 1.
* procfs and the large-file environment didn't go well together:
** Until Solaris 11.3, <sys/procfs.h> would always #error in 32-bit
compilations when the large-file environment was active
(_FILE_OFFSET_BITS == 64).
** In both Solaris 11.4 and Illumos, this restriction was lifted for
structured /proc.
So one has to be careful always to define _STRUCTURED_PROC=1 when
testing for or using <sys/procfs.h> on Solaris. As the errors above
show, this isn't always the case in binutils-gdb right now.
Also one may need to disable large-file support for 32-bit compilations
on Solaris. config/largefile.m4 meant to do this by wrapping the
AC_SYS_LARGEFILE autoconf macro with appropriate checks, yielding
ACX_LARGEFILE. Unfortunately the macro doesn't always succeed because
it neglects the _STRUCTURED_PROC part.
To make things even worse, since GCC 9 g++ predefines
_FILE_OFFSET_BITS=64 on Solaris. So even if largefile.m4 deciced not to
enable large-file support, this has no effect, breaking the gdb build.
This patch addresses all this as follows:
* All tests for the <sys/procfs.h> header are made with
_STRUCTURED_PROC=1, the definition going into the various config.h
files instead of having to make them (and sometimes failing) in the
affected sources.
* To cope with the g++ predefine of _FILE_OFFSET_BITS=64,
-U_FILE_OFFSET_BITS is added to various *_CPPFLAGS variables. It had
been far easier to have just
#undef _FILE_OFFSET_BITS
in config.h, but unfortunately such a construct in config.in is
commented by config.status irrespective of indentation and whitespace
if large-file support is disabled. I found no way around this and
putting the #undef in several global headers for bfd, binutils, ld,
and gdb seemed way more invasive.
* Last, the applicability check in largefile.m4 was modified only to
disable largefile support if really needed. To do so, it checks if
<sys/procfs.h> compiles with _FILE_OFFSET_BITS=64 defined. If it
doesn't, the disabling only happens if gdb exists in-tree and isn't
disabled, otherwise (building binutils from a tarball), there's no
conflict.
What initially confused me was the check for $plugins here, which
originally caused the disabling not to take place. Since AC_PLUGINGS
does enable plugin support if <dlfcn.h> exists (which it does on
Solaris), the disabling never happened.
I could find no explanation why the linker plugin needs large-file
support but thought it would be enough if gld and GCC's lto-plugin
agreed on the _FILE_OFFSET_BITS value. Unfortunately, that's not
enough: lto-plugin uses the simple-object interface from libiberty,
which includes off_t arguments. So to fully disable large-file
support would mean also disabling it in libiberty and its users: gcc
and libstdc++-v3. This seems highly undesirable, so I decided to
disable the linker plugin instead if large-file support won't work.
The patch allows binutils+gdb to build on i386-pc-solaris2.11 (both
Solaris 11.3 and 11.4, using GCC 9.3.0 which is the worst case due to
predefined _FILE_OFFSET_BITS=64). Also regtested on
amd64-pc-solaris2.11 (again on Solaris 11.3 and 11.4),
x86_64-pc-linux-gnu and i686-pc-linux-gnu.

The selftest.m4 file is used by gdb, gdbserver and gdbsupport, I think

It looks like after doing last minute changes to Makefile.am in commit
06b3c5bdb ("gdbsupport: rename source files to .cc"), I forgot to
re-generate Makefile.in. This patch fixes it.
gdbsupport/ChangeLog:
* Makefile.in: Re-generate.
This patch renames the .c source files in gdbsupport to .cc.
In the gdb directory, there is an argument against renaming the source
files, which is that it makes using some git commands more difficult to
do archeology. Some commands have some kind of "follow" option that
makes git try to follow renames, but it doesn't work in all situations.
Given that we have just moved the gdbsupport directory, that argument
doesn't hold for source files in that directory. I therefore suggest
renaming them to .cc, so that they are automatically recognized as C++
by various tools and editors.
The original motivation behind this is that when building gdbsupport
with clang, I get:
CC agent.o
clang: error: treating 'c' input as 'c++' when in C++ mode, this behavior is deprecated [-Werror,-Wdeprecated]
In the gdb/ directory, we make clang happy by passing "-x c++". We
could do this in gdbsupport too, but I think that renaming the files is
a better long-term solution.
gdbserver still does its own build of gdbsupport, so a few changes in
its Makefile are necessary.
gdbsupport/ChangeLog:
* Makefile.am: Rename source files from .c to .cc.
(CC, CFLAGS): Don't override.
(AM_CFLAGS): Rename to ...
(AM_CXXFLAGS): ... this.
* Makefile.in: Re-generate.
* %.c: Rename to %.cc.
gdbserver/ChangeLog:
* Makefile.in: Rename gdbsupport source files from .c to .cc.
This file is used by gdbsupport, gdbserver and gdb, so I think it
belongs in gdbsupport. Move it there and update the references the
various acinclude.m4 files.
gdbsupport/ChangeLog:
* warning.m4: Move here, from gdb/warning.m4.
* acinclude.m4: Update warning.m4 path.
* Makefile.in: Re-generate.
gdbserver/ChangeLog:
* acinclude.m4: Update warning.m4 path.
gdb/ChangeLog:
* acinclude: Update warning.m4 path.
* warning.m4: Move to gdbsupport.
Since gdbsupport has been given its own build system, it is no longer
compiled with the warning flags specified in gdb/warning.m4.
This patch makes it use AM_GDB_WARNINGS.
gdbsupport/ChangeLog:
* acinclude.m4: Include ../gdb/warning.m4.
* configure.ac: Use AM_GDB_WARNINGS.
* Makefile.am: Set AM_CFLAGS to WARN_CFLAGS and WERROR_CFLAGS.
* Makefile.in: Re-generate.
* configure: Re-generate.
gdbsupport fails to build with compilers that don't default to C++11
or above. gdbsupport's configure.ac is already using
AX_CXX_COMPILE_STDCXX, which sets CXX_DIALECT to the -std=gnu++11
switch if necessary, but the problem is that nowhere are we using
CXX_DIALECT. This fixes it.
gdbsupport/ChangeLog:
2020-01-17 Pedro Alves <palves@redhat.com>
* Makefile.am: Append CXX_DIALECT to CXX.
* Makefile.in: Regenerate.
I'm seeing this on F27 (a clean build from scratch):
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
make[3]: Entering directory '/home/pedro/brno/pedro/gdb/binutils-gdb/build/gdbsupport'
CC gdb_tilde_expand.o
In file included from /home/pedro/gdb/binutils-gdb/src/gdbsupport/../gnulib/import/libc-config.h:33:0,

../bfd/config.h:7:4: error: #error config.h must be #included before system headers

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
libc-config.h, where it includes config.h, says:
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
/* This is intended to be a good-enough substitute for glibc system
macros like those defined in <sys/cdefs.h>, so that Gnulib code
shared with glibc can do this as the first #include:
#ifndef _LIBC
# include <libc-config.h>
#endif
When compiled as part of glibc this is a no-op; when compiled as
part of Gnulib this includes Gnulib's <config.h> and defines macros
that glibc library code would normally assume. */
#include <config.h>
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
The issue is that that '#include <config.h>' picks up bfd's config.h
instead of gnulib's.
This problem doesn't trigger in the gdb dir because there we generate
config.h under that exact name so gnulib's libc-config.h ends up
picking gdb's config.h instead of gnulib.c and that ends up harmless.
In gdbsupport, the config.h file is really named support-config.h, so
that '#include <config.h>' in libc-config.h doesn't pick it like it
would if it had the conventional config.h name.
This patch fixes it by simply renaming gdbserver's support-config.h to
config.h.
gdbsupport/ChangeLog:
2020-01-17 Pedro Alves <palves@redhat.com>
* configure.ac: Generate config.h instead of support-config.h.
* common-defs.h: Include <gdbsupport/config.h> instead of
<gdbsupport/support-config.h>.
* Makefile.in: Regenerate.
* configure: Regenerate.
This adds a new script that tries to check that none of the support
code uses defines that are not defined by common.m4. This check is
necessarily inexact, but this script caught all the issues fixed in
the previous patches.

This moves many needed configure checks from gdb and gdbserver into
common.m4. This helps gdbsupport, nat, and target be self-contained.
The result is a bit spaghetti-ish, because gdbsupport uses another m4
file from gdb/. The resulting code is somewhat non-obvious. However,
these problems already exist, so it's not really that much worse than
what is already done.

This patch moves the gdbsupport directory to the top level. This is
the next step in the ongoing project to move gdbserver to the top
level.
The bulk of this patch was created by "git mv gdb/gdbsupport gdbsupport".
This patch then adds a build system to gdbsupport and wires it into
the top level. Then it changes gdb to use the top-level build.
gdbserver, on the other hand, is not yet changed. It still does its
own build of gdbsupport.
