While squashing duplicate test names I spotted what looked like a copy
& paste error. During this test a Python variable is created, and
then we call the type method on that variable. In one case we create
a variable and then call the type method on a variable created for a
previous test. I can see no reason why this should be what we want,
it doesn't line up with the comments in the test script, so I've
updated the test. Note, the expected result doesn't change, just the
command issued (the test relates to stripping typedefs).
gdb/testsuite/ChangeLog:
* gdb.python/lib-types.exp: Update the test to check the correct
python variable.
Add additional text to some test names to make them unique. In one
case, correct the test name (copy & paste error) to make it correctly
reflect what the test is doing.
gdb/testsuite/ChangeLog:
* gdb.python/py-explore-cc.exp: Extend test names to make them
unique.
I spotted a duplicate test name in this test script. Turns out it's
an actual duplicate test. Delete one copy of this test.
gdb/testsuite/ChangeLog:
* gdb.python/py-lookup-type.exp: Remove duplicate test.
Extend the test names with additional text to make them unique.
gdb/testsuite/ChangeLog:
* gdb.python/py-pp-maint.exp: Extend test names to make them

Add a with_test_prefix to make test names unique.
gdb/testsuite/ChangeLog:
* gdb.python/py-explore.exp: Add with_test_prefix to make test
names unique.
Make test names unique by just adding additional text to the test
names. As this is a Python test that repeatedly imports the Python
script I've just numbered the test names in this case rather than
trying to come up with anything better, hence we have:
import python scripts, 1
import python scripts, 2
...
import python scripts, 6
Not great, but hopefully good enough. Everything else has a slightly
more descriptive test name.
gdb/testsuite/ChangeLog:
* gdb.python/py-finish-breakpoint.exp: Make test names unique.
Wrap some code in `with_test_prefix` to make test names unique.
gdb/testsuite/ChangeLog:

Make use of `proc_with_prefix` for every test_* proc in order to make
the test names unique within this test file.
gdb/testsuite/ChangeLog:

Add support for TLS in XCOFF. Amongst the things done by this commit:
- Update XCOFF auxialiary header to match new version and allow TLS
sections.
- Add TLS sections (.tdata and .tbss) support in gas and ld.
- Add support for the TLS relocations in gas and ld.
Two different types BFD_RELOC are created for PPC and PPC64 as
the size is a pointer, thus distinct in 32 or 64bit.
The addresses given by ld to .tdata and .tbss is a bit special. In
XCOFF, these addresses are actually offsets from the TLS pointer
computed at runtime. AIX assembly and linker does the same. In
top of that, the .tdata must be before .data (this is mandatory for AIX
loader). Thus, the aix ld script is recomputing "." before .data to restore
its original value. There might be a simpler way, but this one is working.
Optimisation linked to TLS relocations aren't yet implemented.

Since the last time AIX HOWTO table was modified, IBM has now
released an official documentation about XCOFF relocations.
This commit corrects the wrong ones and add some missing.
For now, the "custom" relocations made for xcoff_rtype2howto have
been kept.
The new relocations are still set as EMPTY_HOWTO because they will
be implemented in later commits.

According to the commit abd20cb637, an
intersting thing is that - the more relax passes, the more chances of
relaxations are reduced [1]. Originally, we set the boolean `again`
to TRUE once the code is actually deleted, and then we run the relaxations
repeatedly if `again` is still TRUE. But `again` only works for the
relax pass itself, and won't affect others. That is - we can not use
`again` to re-run the relax pass when we already enter into the following
passes (can not run the relax passes backwards). Besides, we must seperate
the PCREL relaxations into two relax passes for some reasons [2], it make
us lose some relax opportunities.
This patch try to fix the problem, and the basic idea was come from Jim
Wilson - we use a new boolean, restart_relax, to determine if we need to
run the whole relax passes again from 0 to 2. Once we have deleted the
code between relax pass 0 to 2, the restart_relax will be set to TRUE,
we should run the whole relaxations again to give them more chances to
shorten the code. We will only enter into the relax pass 3 when the
restart_relax is FALSE, since we can't relax anything else once we start
to handle the alignments.
I have passed the gcc/binutils regressions by riscv-gnu-toolchain, and
looks fine for now.

Some spots in GDB already use bool for "parse_completion", but a few

Commit 6ff00b5e12 ("x86/Intel: correct permitted operand sizes for
AVX512 scatter/gather") brought the assembler side of AVX512 S/G insn
handling in line with AVX2's, but the disassembler side was forgotten.
This has the benefit of
- allowing to fold a number of table entries,
- rendering a few #define-s and enumerators unused.
Some of the enumerators have ended up misplaced under the general
current ordering scheme. Move them (and their table entries) around
accordingly. Add a couple of blank lines as separators when close to
code being touched anyway. Also drop the odd 0F from 0FXOP (there's no
"0f" involved there anywhere) infixes where the respective enum gets
played with anyway.
When the VEX.L=1 decode matches that of both EVEX.L'L=1 and EVEX.L'L=2
(typically when all three are invalid) the (smaller) VEX table entry can
be reused by EVEX, instead of duplicating data. (Note that XM and XMM as
well as EXxmm_md and EXd are equivalent at least for the purposes here.)
The order of decodes influences the overall number of table entries.
Reduce table size quite a bit by first decoding few-alternatives
attributes common to all valid leaves.
This also adds a PREFIX_DATA 7531c61332 ("x86: simplify decode of
opcodes valid with (embedded) 66 prefix only") missed to apply to
vbroadcastf64x4.

The order of decodes influences the overall number of table entries.
Reduce table size quite a bit by first decoding few-alternatives
attributes common to all valid leaves.
All encodings not used in this range are (reserved) NOPs. Hence their
decoding should be fully consistent. For this to work the PREFIX_IGNORED
logic needs slightly extending, such that the attribute will also
- have an effect when used inside prefix_table[], yet without always
falling back to using slot 0,
- cause prefixes marked as ignored while decoding through prefix_table[]
to no longer be considered decoded, when encountered in a subsequent
decoding step.
In adjacent code also drop meaningless PREFIX_OPCODE.
The offset-within-section field in the symbol table entry is only 32
bits wide, so rather than emitting bogus entries omit them, and issue
a diagnostic identifying the issue.
This requires adjusting the PR/22267 test to no longer produce symbols
with out of range values on 64-bit BFD. This also depends on
adjustments to testsuite/ld-scripts/map-address.* made by an earlier
patch. The purpose of the test can very well be achieved nevertheless.
The internal AdaCore test suite revealed a bug in the new evaluator.
A hunk of evaluate_funcall was not correctly transcribed. This was
not caught in my original testing because the feature in question was
apparently not tested in gdb.
This patch fixes the oversight. The idea here is that ordinary
function calls should use the function's formal parameter types as the
expected types of subexpressions.
Regression tested on x86-64 Fedora 32.

mcore-pe and sh-pe pointed out that the testcase added by 6fa7408d72
("ld: don't generate base relocations in PE output for absolute
symbols") wasn't quite generic enough yet. Copy entry point stuff from
another test and increase alignment to also cover targets with a page
size lower than 4k.
Despite all of this the test needs to be xfail-ed for mcore, as this
target isn't included in the set getting DLL_SUPPORT enabled in
emultempl/pe.em, and hence no base relocations get generated there
(yet).

gdb: add owner-related methods to struct type
two fields of struct maint_type were renamed. 'flag_objfile_owned'

RepPrefixOk, HLEPrefixOk, and NoTrackPrefixOk can't be specified
together, so can share an enum-like field. IsLockable can be inferred
from HLE setting and hence only needs specifying when neither of them
is present.
Despite SYSEXIT being an Intel-only insn in long mode, its behavior
there is similar to SYSRET's: Depending on REX.W execution continues in
either 64-bit or compatibility mode. Hence distinguishing by suffix is
as necessary here as it is there.
In PE images section addresses get expressed as addresses relative to
the image base. Therefore the VA of a section must be no less than the
image base, and after subtraction of the image base the resulting value
should fit in 32 bits. (The issue is particularly obvious to notice when
sections, perhaps because of ELF assumptions, get placed at VA 0 by
default. Debugging info sections as well as .comment, when input files
are ELF, are a good example. All such sections need proper mentioning in
the linker script to avoid this warning.)
There are a number of test cases which previously produced bogus images,
yet still declared the test a success. Like done for other tests
already, force a zero image base for these. This then also allows (and
requires) dropping again xfail-s which 39a7b38fac ("Fix linker tests
to work with 16-bit targets") had added to ld-scripts/default-script*.d
(originally as skip-s). This also depends on similar adjustments to
testsuite/ld-scripts/map-address.* made by an earlier patch.
For ld-scripts/print-memory-usage.* I suppose xcoff could be dropped
from the exclusion list by suppressing garbage collection, just like
already done in e.g. (as seen in the diff here) ld-scripts/data.*, but I
didn't want to make unrelated adjustments.
