This patch moves the per-inferior data related to displaced stepping to
be directly in the inferior structure, rather than in a container on the
side.
On notable difference is that previously, we deleted the state on
inferior exit, which guaranteed a clean state if re-using the inferior
for a new run or attach. We now need to reset the state manually.
At the same time, I changed step_saved_copy to be a gdb::byte_vector, so
it is automatically freed on destruction (which should plug the leak
reported here [1]).
[1] https://sourceware.org/ml/gdb-patches/2018-11/msg00202.html
gdb/ChangeLog:
* inferior.h (class inferior) <displaced_step_state>: New field.
* infrun.h (struct displaced_step_state): Move here from
infrun.c. Initialize fields, add constructor.
<inf>: Remove field.
<reset>: New method.
* infrun.c (struct displaced_step_inferior_state): Move to
infrun.h.
(displaced_step_inferior_states): Remove.
(get_displaced_stepping_state): Adust.
(displaced_step_in_progress_any_inferior): Adjust.
(displaced_step_in_progress_thread): Adjust.
(displaced_step_in_progress): Adjust.
(add_displaced_stepping_state): Remove.
(get_displaced_step_closure_by_addr): Adjust.
(remove_displaced_stepping_state): Remove.
(infrun_inferior_exit): Call displaced_step_state.reset.
(use_displaced_stepping): Don't check for NULL.
(displaced_step_prepare_throw): Call
get_displaced_stepping_state.
(displaced_step_fixup): Don't check for NULL.
(prepare_for_detach): Don't check for NULL.
When the call does not complete, the call_thread_fsm allocated
by new_call_thread_fsm is not cleaned up and deleted, which causes
the following leak e.g. in gdb.base/callfuncs.exp:
==29263== 560 bytes in 7 blocks are definitely lost in loss record 2,833 of 3,341
==29263== at 0x4C2E0BC: calloc (vg_replace_malloc.c:762)

==29263== by 0x4E67EB: xcnew<call_thread_fsm> (poison.h:122)
==29263== by 0x4E67EB: new_call_thread_fsm (infcall.c:516)
==29263== by 0x4E67EB: call_function_by_hand_dummy(value*, type*, gdb::array_view<value*>, void (*)(void*, int), void*) (infcall.c:1154)
==29263== by 0x4E784E: call_function_by_hand(value*, type*, gdb::array_view<value*>) (infcall.c:693)
==29263== by 0x496111: eval_call(expression*, noside, int, value**, char const*, type*) [clone .isra.5] (eval.c:835)
Fix the leak by similarly doing cleanup/destroy when restoring
previous state machine.
Tested on debian/amd64, natively and under valgrind.

* infcall.c (call_function_by_hand_dummy): cleanup/destroy sm
in case of call that did not complete.
When using remote debugging server, and when debuggee filename is
inferred via qXfer:exec-file:read request, or sysroot starts with
"target:", this "target:" prefix of filepaths is not treated correctly
during debug file search - it appears in the middle of the looked up
paths.
In the following example, unpatched GDB can't find separate debug files for
neither the executable, nor standard libraries:
$ gdb -ex 'set debug separate-debug-file 1' -ex 'set sysroot target:/' -ex 'set debug-file-directory /usr/lib/debug:/home/j/hide' -ex 'target remote :3333' -ex 'break main' -ex 'continue' -ex 'bt' -ex 'info sharedlibrary' -ex 'set confirm off' -ex 'quit'

unnecessary casts, the removal of an unnecessary local variable, and
one instance of incorrect formatting.
Tested by rebuilding and re-running gdb.python.

The year range in the copyright header of that file was incorrect:
// Copyright (C) 3 Free Software Foundation, Inc.
Tracing the origin of this file down, I found that it was copied
from GCC's libstdc++-v3 testsuite:
Adapt and integrate string_view tests
https://www.sourceware.org/ml/gdb-patches/2018-04/msg00113.html
Looking at the version in GCC, I found the same issue, so sent
a fix there:
https://gcc.gnu.org/ml/gcc-patches/2019-01/msg00000.html
Now that the fix is in GCC, this commit applies the same fix
to our copy.
gdb/ChangeLog:
* unittests/basic_string_view/element_access/char/empty.cc:
Fix year range in copyright header.
The goal of this commit is to allow RV64 binaries compiled for the 'F'
extension to run on a target that supports both the 'F' and 'D'
extensions.
The 'D' extension depends on the 'F' extension and chapter 9 of the
RISC-V ISA manual implies that running a program compiled for 'F' on
a 'D' target should be fine.
To support this the gdbarch now holds two feature sets, one represents
the features that are present on the target, and one represents the
features requested in the ELF flags.
The existing error checks are relaxed slightly to allow binaries
compiled for 32-bit 'F' extension to run on targets with the 64-bit
'D' extension.
A new set of functions called riscv_abi_{xlen,flen} are added to
compliment the existing riscv_isa_{xlen,flen}, and some callers to the
isa functions now call the abi functions when that is appropriate.
In riscv_call_arg_struct two asserts are removed, these asserts no
longer make sense. The asserts were both like this:
gdb_assert (TYPE_LENGTH (ainfo->type)
<= (cinfo->flen + cinfo->xlen));
And were made in two cases, when passing structures like these:
struct {
integer field1;
float field2;
};
or,
struct {
float field1;
integer field2;
};
When running on an RV64 target which only has 32-bit float then the
integer field could be 64-bits, while if the float field is 32-bits
the overall size of the structure can be 128-bits (with 32-bits of
padding). In this case the assertion would fail, however, the code
isn't incorrect, so its safe to just remove the assertion.
This was tested by running on an RV64IMFDC target using a compiler
configured for RV64IMFC, and comparing the results with those obtained
when using a compiler configured for RV64IMFDC. The only regressions
I see (now) are in gdb.base/store.exp and are related too different
code generation choices GCC makes between the two targets.
Finally, this commit does not make any attempt to support running
binaries compiled for RV32 on an RV64 target, though nothing in here
should prevent that being supported in the future.
gdb/ChangeLog:
* arch/riscv.h (struct riscv_gdbarch_features) <hw_float_abi>:

* riscv-tdep.c (riscv_isa_xlen): Update to get answer from
isa_features.
(riscv_abi_xlen): New function.
(riscv_isa_flen): Update to get answer from isa_features.
(riscv_abi_flen): New function.
(riscv_has_fp_abi): Update to get answer from abi_features.
(riscv_call_info::riscv_call_info): Use abi xlen and flen, not isa
xlen and flen.
(riscv_call_info) <xlen, flen>: Update comment.
(riscv_call_arg_struct): Remove invalid assertions
(riscv_features_from_gdbarch_info): Update now hw_float_abi field
is removed.
(riscv_gdbarch_init): Gather isa features and abi features
separately, ensure both match on the gdbarch when reusing an old
gdbarch. Relax an error check to allow 32-bit abi float to run on
a target with 64-bit float hardware.

This commit applies all changes made after running the gdb/copyright.py
script.
Note that one file was flagged by the script, due to an invalid
copyright header
(gdb/unittests/basic_string_view/element_access/char/empty.cc).
As the file was copied from GCC's libstdc++-v3 testsuite, this commit
leaves this file untouched for the time being; a patch to fix the header
was sent to gcc-patches first.
gdb/ChangeLog:
Update copyright year range in all GDB files.
Following the change of logic where the input_handler gets a
gdb::unique_xmalloc_ptr<char>, a call to readline directly
followed by a call to handle_line_of_input is missing a free,
and causes the below leak.
Use gdb::unique_xmalloc_ptr<char> to solve the leak.

This patch fixes all this.
Note that the 'set style' and 'show style' have the same prefix_doc:
(gdb) help show style
Style-specific settings
Configure various style-related variables, such as colors
...
(gdb) help set style
Style-specific settings
Configure various style-related variables, such as colors
...
Other similar commands (such as set|show history) have typically
a more specific prefix:
(gdb) help show history
Generic command for showing command history parameters.
...
(gdb) help set history
Generic command for setting command history parameters.
...
This could be fixed by having set_prefix_doc and show_prefix_doc instead of
the single prefix_doc argument to cli_style_option::add_setshow_commands.
That could be improved if deemed better.

PR tui/14126 notes that ANSI terminal escape sequences don't affect
the colors shown in the TUI. A simple way to see this is to try the
extended-prompt example from the gdb manual.
Curses does not pass escape sequences through to the terminal.
Instead, it replaces non-printable characters with a visible
representation, for example "^[" for the ESC character.
This patch fixes the problem by adding a simple ANSI terminal sequence
parser to gdb. These sequences are decoded and those that are
recognized are turned into the appropriate curses calls.
The curses approach to color handling is unusual and so there are some
oddities in the implementation.
Standard curses has no notion of the default colors of the terminal.
So, if you set the foreground color, it is not possible to reset it --
you have to pick some other color. ncurses provides an extension to
handle this, so this patch updates configure and uses it when
available.
Second, in curses, colors always come in pairs: you cannot set just
the foreground. This patch handles this by tracking actually-used
pairs of colors and keeping a table of these for reuse.
Third, there are a limited number of such pairs available. In this
patch, if you try to use too many color combinations, gdb will just
ignore some color changes.
Finally, in addition to limiting the number of color pairs, curses
also limits the number of colors. This means that, when using
extended 8- or 24-bit color sequences, it may be possible to exhaust
the curses color table.
I am very sour on the curses design now.
I do not know how to write a test for this, so I did not.

This adds a function that can be used to reset terminal styles,

This adds some output styling to the CLI.
A style is currently a foreground color, a background color, and an
intensity (dim or bold). (This list could be expanded depending on
terminal capabilities.)
A style can be applied while printing. For ui-out, this is done by
passing the style constant as an argument. For low-level cases,
fprintf_styled and fputs_styled are provided.
Users can control the style via a number of new set/show commands. In
the interest of not typing many nearly-identical documentation
strings, I automated this. On the down side, this is not very
i18n-friendly.
I've chose some default colors to use. I think it would be good to
enable this by default, so that when users start the new gdb, they
will see the new feature.
Stylizing is done if TERM is set and is not "dumb". This could be
improved when the TUI is available by using the curses has_colors
call. That is, the lowest layer could call this without committing to
using curses everywhere; see my other patch for TUI colorizing.
I considered adding a new "set_style" method to ui_file. However,
because the implementation had to interact with the pager code, I
didn't take this approach. But, one idea might be to put the isatty
check there and then have it defer to the lower layers.

Currently wrap buffering is implemented by allocating a string that is
the same width as the window, and then writing characters into it.
However, if gdb emits terminal escapes, then these could possibly
overflow the buffer.
To prevent this, change the wrap buffer to be a std::string and update
the various uses.
This also changes utils.c to always emit characters to the wrap
buffer. This simplifies future patches which emit terminal escape
sequences, and also makes it possible for the "echo" and "printf"
commands to be used to emit terminal escapes and have these work in
the TUI.

The leak is created by top.c set_verbose 'elaborate joke':
the doc string is changed according to the verbosity:
(gdb) help set verbose
Set verbosity.
(gdb) set verbose on
(gdb) help set verbose
Set verbose printing of informational messages.
(gdb)
set_verbose creates the leak as it replaces the string allocated in
the above stacktrace by a static (non translated) string:
...
if (info_verbose)
{
c->doc = "Set verbose printing of informational messages.";
...
Also, this can possibly trigger a call to 'free' of a static string,
as c->doc_allocated is kept true, while the string is not allocated anymore.

* fixes the leak by freeing the previous docs if doc_allocated.
* internationalize the messages.
* properly sets doc_allocated to 0 once doc strings are static.

When one steps with "next" past the 'main's 'return' statement
in MinGW programs built by mingw.org's tools, PC lands in a
function whose symbol is not in any symtab. GDB then looks
up the nearest symbol, and should find none, because all those
with addresses below PC are not real functions. Having
unresolved symbols, whose address is zero, in minsyms tricked
GDB into using these bogus symbols, which then caused
assertion violation and internal_error. See the discussion at

Commit 2bf2bf23da exposed a bug on targets that create common sections
other than the standard ELF SHN_COMMON. If these are output by ld -r,
then their type becomes SHT_PROGBITS unless the target handles them
specially (eg. by elf_backend_special_sections), and if they are
merged into .bss/.sbss by ld -r then that section becomes SHT_PROGBITS.
Worse, if they are output by ld -r, then their size is increased by
bfd_generic_define_common_symbol during final link, which leads to
bogus file contents being copied to output.
For mips, it seems to me that the .scommon section should not be
output for ld -r, but I haven't made that change in this patch.
