I grew a bit tired of using ptid_get_{lwp,pid,tid} and friends, so I decided to
make it a bit easier to use by making it a proper class. The fields are now
private, so it's not possible to change a ptid_t field by mistake.
The new methods of ptid_t map to existing functions/practice like this:
ptid_t (pid, lwp, tid) -> ptid_build (pid, lwp, tid)
ptid_t (pid) -> pid_to_ptid (pid)
ptid.is_pid () -> ptid_is_pid (ptid)
ptid == other -> ptid_equal (ptid, other)
ptid != other -> !ptid_equal (ptid, other)
ptid.pid () -> ptid_get_pid (ptid)
ptid.lwp_p () -> ptid_lwp_p (ptid)
ptid.lwp () -> ptid_get_lwp (ptid)
ptid.tid_p () -> ptid_tid_p (ptid)
ptid.tid () -> ptid_get_tid (ptid)
ptid.matches (filter) -> ptid_match (ptid, filter)
I've replaced the implementation of the existing functions with calls to
the new methods. People are encouraged to gradually switch to using the
ptid_t methods instead of the functions (or we can change them all in
one pass eventually).
Also, I'm not sure if it's worth it (because of ptid_t's relatively
small size), but I have made the functions and methods take ptid_t
arguments by const reference instead of by value.

The calls to ptid_equal in ptid_lwp_p and ptid_tid_p that compare the
argument to minus_one_ptid and null_ptid are not necessary. The calls
in question are:
if (ptid_equal (minus_one_ptid, ptid)
|| ptid_equal (null_ptid, ptid))
return 0;
minus_one_ptid is { .pid = -1, .lwp = 0, .tid = 0 }
null_ptid is { .pid = 0, .lwp = 0, .tid = 0 }
If the ptid argument is either of them, the statements
return (ptid_get_lwp (ptid) != 0);
and
return (ptid_get_tid (ptid) != 0);
will yield the same result (0/false).

Compiling GDB with -Wwrite-strings flags this code in gdb/proc-api.c:
static char *procfs_filename = "procfs_trace";
as needing a cast. However, this variable is a command variable, and
as such it's incorrect to initialize it to a literal, since when you
use the corresponding set command, gdb frees the old string...
I didn't manage to fully build Solaris gdb (fails for other reasons),
but I confirmed that the system GDB on Solaris 11 crashes when running
this command:
(gdb) set procfs-file foo
Segmentation Fault (core dumped)
So I don't think this commit can make it worse than the status quo.

The main motivation here is avoiding having to write a couple casts

That requires making ep_parse_optional_if_clause and
check_for_argument take pointers to const strings. I then tried
propagating the resulting constification all the way, but that was
spiraling out of control, so instead I settled for keeping const and
non-const overloads.

-Wwrite-strings flags code like:
static char *keywords[] = {"command", "from_tty", "to_string", NULL };
as needing "(char *)" casts, because string literals are "const char []".
We can get rid of the casts by changing the array type like this:
- static char *keywords[] = {"command", "from_tty", "to_string", NULL };
+ static const char *keywords[] = {"command", "from_tty", "to_string", NULL };
However, passing the such array to PyArg_ParseTupleAndKeywords no longer
works OOTB, because PyArg_ParseTupleAndKeywords expects a "char **":
PyArg_ParseTupleAndKeywords(PyObject *args, PyObject *kw,
const char *format,
char *keywords[], ...);
and "const char **" is not implicitly convertible to "char **". C++
is more tolerant that C here WRT aliasing, and a const_cast<char **>
is fine. However, to avoid having all callers do the cast themselves,
this commit defines a gdb_PyArg_ParseTupleAndKeywords function here
with a corresponding 'keywords' parameter type that does the cast in a
single place.

Unfortunately, PyGetSetDef's 'name' and 'doc' members are 'char *'
instead of 'const char *', meaning that in order to list-initialize
PyGetSetDef arrays using string literals requires writing explicit
'char *' casts. For example:
static PyGetSetDef value_object_getset[] = {
- { "address", valpy_get_address, NULL, "The address of the value.",
+ { (char *) "address", valpy_get_address, NULL,
+ (char *) "The address of the value.",
NULL },
- { "is_optimized_out", valpy_get_is_optimized_out, NULL,
- "Boolean telling whether the value is optimized "
+ { (char *) "is_optimized_out", valpy_get_is_optimized_out, NULL,
+ (char *) "Boolean telling whether the value is optimized "
"out (i.e., not available).",
NULL },
- { "type", valpy_get_type, NULL, "Type of the value.", NULL },
- { "dynamic_type", valpy_get_dynamic_type, NULL,
- "Dynamic type of the value.", NULL },
- { "is_lazy", valpy_get_is_lazy, NULL,
- "Boolean telling whether the value is lazy (not fetched yet\n\
+ { (char *) "type", valpy_get_type, NULL,
+ (char *) "Type of the value.", NULL },
+ { (char *) "dynamic_type", valpy_get_dynamic_type, NULL,
+ (char *) "Dynamic type of the value.", NULL },
+ { (char *) "is_lazy", valpy_get_is_lazy, NULL,
+ (char *) "Boolean telling whether the value is lazy (not fetched yet\n\
from the inferior). A lazy value is fetched when needed, or when\n\
the \"fetch_lazy()\" method is called.", NULL },
{NULL} /* Sentinel */
We have ~20 such arrays, and I first wrote a patch that fixed all of
them like that... It's not pretty...
One way to make these a bit less ugly would be add a new macro that
hides the casts, like:
#define GDBPY_GSDEF(NAME, GET, SET, DOC, CLOSURE) \
{ (char *) NAME, GET, SET, (char *) DOC, CLOSURE }
and then use it like:
static PyGetSetDef value_object_getset[] = {
GDBPY_GSDEF ("address", valpy_get_address, NULL,
"The address of the value.", NULL),
GDBPY_GSDEF ("is_optimized_out", valpy_get_is_optimized_out, NULL,
"Boolean telling whether the value is optimized ", NULL),
{NULL} /* Sentinel */
};
But since we have C++11, which gives us constexpr and list
initialization, I thought of a way that requires no changes where the
arrays are initialized:
We add a new type that extends PyGetSetDef (called gdb_PyGetSetDef),
and add constexpr constructors that accept const 'name' and 'doc', and
then list/aggregate initialization simply "calls" these matching
constructors instead.
I put "calls" in quotes, because given "constexpr", it's all done at
compile time, and there's no overhead either in binary size or at run
time. In fact, we get identical binaries, before/after this change.
Unlike the fixes that fix some old Python API to match the API of more
recent Python, this switches to using explicit "gdb_PyGetSetDef"
everywhere, just to be clear that we are using our own version of it.

-Wwrite-strings flags several cases of missing casts around

Obviously these could/should be const. However, while at it, there's
no need for these variables to be pointers instead of arrays. They
are never changed to point to anything else.
Unfortunately, readline's rl_completer_word_break_characters is
"char *", not "const char *". So we always need a cast somewhere. The
approach taken here is to add a new
set_rl_completer_word_break_characters function that becomes the only
place that writes to rl_completer_word_break_characters, and thus the
single place that needs the cast.

-Wwrite-strings flags these initializations as requiring a cast.
However, these variables are command variables, and as such point to
heap-allocated memory. The initial allocation is always done when the
corresponding command is registered. E.g.,:
dprintf_function = xstrdup ("printf");
add_setshow_string_cmd ("dprintf-function", class_support,
&dprintf_function, _("\
Set the function to use for dynamic printf"), _("\
Show the function to use for dynamic printf"), NULL,
update_dprintf_commands, NULL,
&setlist, &showlist);
That's why we never reach a bogus attempt to free these string
literals.
So, just drop the incorrect initializations.

gdb/ChangeLog:
2017-04-05 Pedro Alves <palves@redhat.com>
* macroexp.c (macro_buffer::shared): Now a bool.
(init_buffer): Update.
(init_shared_buffer): Constify 'addr' parameter.
(substitute_args, expand, macro_expand, macro_expand_next): Remove
casts.
The memory disassemble_info::disassembler_options points to is always
owned by the client. I.e., that field is an non-owning, observing
pointer. Thus const makes sense.
Are the include/ and opcodes/ bits OK?
Tested on x86_64 Fedora 23, built with --enable-targets=all.
