Move the declarations out of defs.h, and the implementations out of
findvar.c.
I opted for a new file, because this functionality of converting
integers to bytes and vice-versa seems a bit to generic to live in
findvar.c.

We currently pass frames to function by value, as `frame_info_ptr`.
This is somewhat expensive:
- the size of `frame_info_ptr` is 64 bytes, which is a bit big to pass
by value
- the constructors and destructor link/unlink the object in the global
`frame_info_ptr::frame_list` list. This is an `intrusive_list`, so
it's not so bad: it's just assigning a few points, there's no memory
allocation as if it was `std::list`, but still it's useless to do
that over and over.
As suggested by Tom Tromey, change many function signatures to accept
`const frame_info_ptr &` instead of `frame_info_ptr`.
Some functions reassign their `frame_info_ptr` parameter, like:
void
the_func (frame_info_ptr frame)
{
for (; frame != nullptr; frame = get_prev_frame (frame))
{
...
}
}
I wondered what to do about them, do I leave them as-is or change them
(and need to introduce a separate local variable that can be
re-assigned). I opted for the later for consistency. It might not be
clear why some functions take `const frame_info_ptr &` while others take
`frame_info_ptr`. Also, if a function took a `frame_info_ptr` because
it did re-assign its parameter, I doubt that we would think to change it
to `const frame_info_ptr &` should the implementation change such that
it doesn't need to take `frame_info_ptr` anymore. It seems better to
have a simple rule and apply it everywhere.

This changes lookup_symbol and associated APIs to accept
domain_search_flags rather than a domain_enum.
Note that this introduces some new constants to Python and Guile. I
chose to break out the documentation patch for this, because the
internals here do not change until a later patch, and it seemed
simpler to patch the docs just once, rather than twice.
This commit is the result of the following actions:
- Running gdb/copyright.py to update all of the copyright headers to
include 2024,
- Manually updating a few files the copyright.py script told me to
update, these files had copyright headers embedded within the
file,
- Regenerating gdbsupport/Makefile.in to refresh it's copyright
date,
- Using grep to find other files that still mentioned 2023. If
these files were updated last year from 2022 to 2023 then I've
updated them this year to 2024.
I'm sure I've probably missed some dates. Feel free to fix them up as
you spot them.
After finding this code in buildsym_compunit::finish_block_internal:
...
ftype->set_fields
((struct field *)
TYPE_ALLOC (ftype, nparams * sizeof (struct field)));
...
and fixing PR30810 by using TYPE_ZALLOC, I wondered if there were more
locations that needed fixing.
I decided to make things easier to spot by factoring out a new function
alloc_fields:
...
/* Allocate the fields array of this type, with NFIELDS elements. If INIT,
zero-initialize the allocated memory. */
void
type::alloc_fields (unsigned int nfields, bool init = true);
...
where:
- a regular use would be "alloc_fields (nfields)", and
- an exceptional use that needed no initialization would be
"alloc_fields (nfields, false)".
Pretty soon I discovered that most of the latter cases are due to
initialization by memcpy, so I added two variants of copy_fields as well.
After this rewrite there are 8 uses of set_fields left:
...
gdb/coffread.c: type->set_fields (nullptr);
gdb/coffread.c: type->set_fields (nullptr);
gdb/coffread.c: type->set_fields (nullptr);
gdb/eval.c: type->set_fields
gdb/gdbtypes.c: type->set_fields (args);
gdb/gdbtypes.c: t->set_fields (XRESIZEVEC (struct field, t->fields (),
gdb/dwarf2/read.c: type->set_fields (new_fields);
gdb/dwarf2/read.c: sub_type->set_fields (sub_type->fields () + 1);
...
These fall into the following categories:
- set to nullptr (coffread.c),
- type not owned by objfile or gdbarch (eval.c), and
- modifying an existing fields array, like adding an element at the end or
dropping an element at the start (the rest).

This commit is the result of running the gdb/copyright.py script,
which automated the update of the copyright year range for all
source files managed by the GDB project to be updated to include
year 2023.
This changes GDB to use frame_info_ptr instead of frame_info *
The substitution was done with multiple sequential `sed` commands:
sed 's/^struct frame_info;/class frame_info_ptr;/'
sed 's/struct frame_info \*/frame_info_ptr /g' - which left some
issues in a few files, that were manually fixed.
sed 's/\<frame_info \*/frame_info_ptr /g'
sed 's/frame_info_ptr $/frame_info_ptr/g' - used to remove whitespace
problems.
The changed files were then manually checked and some 'sed' changes
undone, some constructors and some gets were added, according to what
made sense, and what Tromey originally did

gdbarch implements its own registry-like approach. This patch changes
it to instead use registry.h. It's a rather large patch but largely
uninteresting -- it's mostly a straightforward conversion from the old
approach to the new one.
The main benefit of this change is that it introduces type safety to
the gdbarch registry. It also removes a bunch of code.
One possible drawback is that, previously, the gdbarch registry
differentiated between pre- and post-initialization setup. This
doesn't seem very important to me, though.
The next patch will want to do language->print_type(type, ...), to
print a type in a given language, avoiding a dependency on the current
language. That doesn't work correctly currently, however, because
most language implementations of language_defn::print_type call
c_print_type without passing down the language. There are two
overloads of c_print_type, one that takes a language, and one that
does not. The one that does not uses the current language, defeating
the point of calling language->print_type()...
This commit removes the c_print_type overload that does not take a
language, and adjusts the codebase throughout to always pass down a
language. In most places, there's already an enum language handy.
language_defn::print_type implementations naturally pass down
this->la_language. In a couple spots, like in ada-typeprint.c and
rust-lang.c there's no enum language handy, but the code is written
for a specific language, so we just hardcode the language.
In gnuv3_print_method_ptr, I wasn't sure whether we could hardcode C++
here, and we don't have an enum language handy, so I made it use the
current language, just like today. Can always be improved later.

When we need to evaluate a DWARF expression in order to resolve some
dynamic property of a type we call the dwarf2_evaluate_property
function, which is declared in gdb/dwarf/loc.h and defined in
gdb/dwarf/loc.c.
Currently, this function takes (amongst other things) an argument of
type property_addr_info called addr_stack and a boolean called
push_initial_value. When push_initial_value then the top value of
addr_stack is pushed onto the dwarf expression evaluation stack before
the expression is evaluated.
So far this has worked fine, as the only two cases we needed to handle
are the case the DWARF expression doesn't require the object
address (what the top of addr_stack represents), and the case where
the DWARF expression does require the address.
In the next commit this is going to change. As we add support for
Fortran assumed rank arrays, we need to start resolving the dynamic
properties of arrays. To do this, we need to push the array rank onto
the dwarf expression evaluation stack before the expression is
evaluated.
This commit is a refactoring commit aimed at making it easier to
support Fortran assumed rank arrays. Instead of passing a boolean,
and using this to decide if we should push the object address or not,
we instead pass an array (view) of values that should be pushed to the
dwarf expression evaluation stack.
In the couple of places where we previously passed push_initial_value
as true (mostly this was defaulting to false), we now have to pass the
address from the addr_stack as an item in the array view.
In the next commit, when we want to handle passing the array rank,
this will easily be supported too.
There should be no user visible changes after this commit.

This commit brings all the changes made by running gdb/copyright.py
as per GDB's Start of New Year Procedure.
For the avoidance of doubt, all changes in this commits were
performed by the script.
The bug fixed by this [1] patch was caused by an out-of-bounds access to
a value's content. The code gets the value's content (just a pointer)
and then indexes it with a non-sensical index.
This made me think of changing functions that return value contents to
return array_views instead of a plain pointer. This has the advantage
that when GDB is built with _GLIBCXX_DEBUG, accesses to the array_view
are checked, making bugs more apparent / easier to find.
This patch changes the return types of these functions, and updates
callers to call .data() on the result, meaning it's not changing
anything in practice. Additional work will be needed (which can be done
little by little) to make callers propagate the use of array_view and
reap the benefits.

Add accessors for the various location values in struct field. This
lets us assert that when we get a location value of a certain kind (say,
bitpos), the field's location indeed contains a value of that kind.
Remove the SET_FIELD_* macros, instead use the new setters directly.
Update the FIELD_* macros used to access field locations to go through
the getters. They will be removed in a subsequent patch.
There are places where the FIELD_* macros are used on call_site_target
structures, because it contains members of the same name (loc_kind and
loc). For now, I have replicated the getters/setters in
call_site_target. But we could perhaps eventually factor them in a
"location" structure that can be used at both places.
Note that the field structure, being zero-initialized, defaults to a
bitpos location with value 0. While writing this patch, I tried to make
it default to an "unset" location, to catch places where we would miss
setting a field's location. However, I found that some places relied on
the default being "bitpos 0", so I left it as-is. This change could
always be done as follow-up work, making these places explicitly set the
"bitpos 0" location.
I found two issues to fix:
- I got some failures in the gdb.base/infcall-nested-structs-c++.exp
test. They were caused by two functions in amd64-tdep.c using
TYPE_FIELD_BITPOS before checking if the location is of the bitpos
kind, which they do indirectly through `field_is_static`. Simply
move getting the bitpos below the field_is_static call.
- I got a failure in gdb.xml/tdesc-regs.exp. It turns out that in
make_gdb_type_enum, we set enum field values using SET_FIELD_BITPOS,
and later access them through FIELD_ENUMVAL. Fix that by using
set_loc_enumval to set the value.

I noticed that some methods in language_defn could use
unique_xmalloc_ptr<char> rather than a plain 'char *'. This patch

Note that because of the name clash between the existing field named
`name` and the new method, I renamed the field `m_name`. It is not
private per-se, because we can't make `struct field` a non-POD yet, but
it should be considered private anyway (not accessed outside `struct
field`).

Update copyright year range in copyright header of all GDB files.
Add setters, to ensure that the kind and value of the property are
always kept in sync (a caller can't forget one or the other). Add
getters, such that we can assert that when a caller accesses a data bit
of the property, the property is indeed of the corresponding kind.
Note that because of the way `struct dynamic_prop` is allocated
currently, we can't make the `m_kind` and `m_data` fields private. That
would make the type non-default-constructible, and we would have to call
the constructor when allocating them. However, I still prefixed them
with `m_` to indicate that they should not be accessed from outside the
class (and also to be able to use the name `kind` for the method).
