An optional parameter TEST has been added to get_hexadecimal_valueof in commit:
https://sourceware.org/ml/gdb-patches/2016-06/msg00469.html
This patch adds a similar optional parameter to other related methods that
retrieve expression values: get_valueof, get_integer_valueof and get_sizeof.
Thus tests that evaluate same expression multiple times can provide custom
test names, ensuring that test names will be unique.

So far linux_proc_xfer_partial refused to handle write requests. This is
still based on the assumption that the Linux kernel does not support
writes to /proc/<pid>/mem. That used to be true, but has changed with
Linux 2.6.39 released in May 2011.
This patch lifts this restriction and now exploits /proc/<pid>/mem for
writing to inferior memory as well, if possible.
gdb/ChangeLog:
* linux-nat.c (linux_proc_xfer_partial): Handle write operations

We are currently assuming that regcache->ptid is equal to inferior_ptid
when we call target_fetch/store_registers. These asserts just validate
that assumption. Also, since the following patches will change target
code to use regcache->ptid instead of inferior_ptid, asserting that they
are the same should ensure that our changes don't have any unintended
consequences.
gdb/ChangeLog:
* target.c (target_fetch_registers, target_store_registers): Add

This patch introduces the regcache_get_ptid function, which can be used
to retrieve the ptid a regcache is connected to. It is used in
subsequent patches.

* regcache.c (regcache_get_ptid): New function.
I noticed that backslash_in_multi_line_command_test in
gdb.base/commands.exp failed on our RHEL6 servers. I traced it to the
old version of DejaGnu (1.4.4). I have found that instead of receiving
the expected:
"print \\\nargc\n"
gdb received:
"print argc\n"
thus breaking the test and its purpose. Versionof DejaGnu < 1.5 mess
up sending "\\\n", it somehow gets replaced with a space. I found that
the following commit in DejaGnu fixed the issue:
http://git.savannah.gnu.org/cgit/dejagnu.git/commit/lib/remote.exp?id=3f39294f5cd6802858838d3bcc0ccce847ae17f2
Even though the commit is almost 10 years old, the following release of
DejaGnu was only in 2013, which is why we still have systems with the
old code.
If the DejaGnu version is < 1.5, we just skip the test.
gdb/testsuite/ChangeLog:
* gdb.base/commands.exp (backslash_in_multi_line_command_test):
Skip for versions of DejaGnu < 1.5.
The next patch will require checking the DejaGnu version. There is
already a test that does this,
gdb.threads/attach-many-short-lived-threads.exp. This patch introduces
a new procedure, dejagnu_version, and makes that test use it.
The version number is "right-padded" with zeroes, to make sure that we
always return a triplet (major, minor, patch).
The procedure does not consider the DejaGnu versions from git. For
example, if you used DejaGnu from its current master branch, the version
would be "1.6.1-git", meaning that 1.6.1 will be the next release. I
figured we'll cross that bridge when (and if) we get there.
gdb/testsuite/ChangeLog:
* lib/gdb.exp (dejagnu_version): New proc.
* gdb.threads/attach-many-short-lived-threads.exp (bad_dejagnu):
Use dejagnu_version.
While integrating the d_printing recursion guard change into gdb I
noticed we forgot to initialize the demangle_component d_printing
field in cplus_demangle_fill_{name,extended_operator,ctor,dtor}.
As is done in cplus_demangle_fill_{component,builtin_type,operator}.
It happened to work because in gcc all demangle_components were
allocated through d_make_empty. But gdb has its own allocation
mechanism (as might other users).

For a long time now, c++/8218 has noted that GDB is printing argument types
for destructors:
(gdb) ptype A
type = class A {
public:
~A(int);
}
This happens because cp_type_print_method_args doesn't ignore artificial
arguments. [It ignores the first `this' pointer because it simply skips
the first argument for any non-static function.]
This patch fixes this:
(gdb) ptype A
type = class A {
public:
~A();
}
I've adjusted gdb.cp/templates.exp to account for this and added a new
passing regexp.

Given a linker script fragment like this:
SECTIONS {
. = 0x1000;
.text : AT(0x100) { *(.text) }
.data : AT(0x200) { *(.data) }
.rodata : AT(0x300) { *(.rodata) }
}
and an input file containing sections, '.text', '.data.1', and
'.rodata', then we'd expect the linker to place '.text' and '.rodata' in
the obvious way, and the '.data.1' orphan section would be located after
the '.data' section (assuming similar section properties).
Further, I believe that the expectation would be that the LMA for the
orphan '.data.1' section would start from 0x200 (as there is no '.data'
content).
However, right now, the LMA for '.data.1' would be 0x101, following on
from the '.text' section, this is because the change in LMA for the
'.data' section is not noticed by the linker, if there's no content in
the '.data' section.
What can be even more confusing to a user (though the cause is obvious
once you understand what's going on) is that adding some content to
'.data' will cause the orphan '.data.1' to switch to an LMA based off of
0x200.
This commit changes the behaviour so that an empty section that is in
the default lma region, and sets its lma, will adjust the lma of the
default region, this change will then be reflected in following sections
within the default lma memory region.
There's a new test to cover this issue that passes on a range of
targets, however, some targets generate additional sections, or have
stricter memory region size requirements that make it harder to come
up with a generic pass pattern, that still tests the required
features. For now I've set the test to ignore these targets.
ld/ChangeLog:
* ldlang.c (lang_size_sections_1): Shortcut loop only after
tracking changes to the default regions LMA.

When picking an lma_region for an orphan section we currently create a
new lang_output_section_statement_type and then populate this with the
orphan section.
The problem is that the lang_output_section_statement_type has a prev
pointer that links back to the previous output section. For non-orphan
output sections, that are created in linker script order, the prev
pointer will point to the output section that appears previous in linker
script order, as you'd probably expect.
The problem is that orphan sections are placed after processing the
linker script, and so, in the case of an output section created for an
orphan input section, the prev pointer actually points to the last
output section created.
This causes some unexpected behaviour when the orphan section is not
placed after the last non-orphan section that was created.
For example, consider this linker script:
MEMORY {
TEXT : ORIGIN = 0x200, LENGTH = 0x10
RODATA : ORIGIN = 0x400, LENGTH = 0x10
}
SECTIONS {
.text : {*(.text) } AT>TEXT
.data : AT(0x300) { *(.data) }
.rodata : { *(.rodata) } AT>RODATA
}
If we are processing an orphan section '.data.1' and decide to place
this after '.data', then the output section created will have a prev
pointer that references the '.rodata' output section. The result of
this is that '.data.1' will actually be assigned to the RODATA lma
region, which is probably not the expected behaviour.
The reason why '.data.1' is placed into the lma region of the '.rodata'
section is that lma region propagation is done at the time we create the
output section, based on the previous output section pointer, which is
really just a last-output-section-created pointer at that point in time,
though the prev point is fixed up later to reflect the true order of the
output sections.
The solution I propose in this commit is to move the propagation of lma
regions into a separate pass of the linker, rather than performing this
as part of the enter/exit of output sections during linker script
parsing.
During this later phase we have all of the output sections to hand, and
the prev/next points have been fixed up by this point to reflect the
actual placement ordering.
There's a new test to cover this issue that passes on a range of
targets, however, some targets generate additional sections, or have
stricter memory region size requirements that make it harder to come
up with a generic pass pattern, that still tests the required
features. For now I've set the test to ignore these targets.

Make more explicit mention of the fact that orphan sections can cause a

implied in the manual it might not be clear enough.

Many x86 instructions have more than one encodings. Assembler picks
the default one, usually the shortest one. Although the ".s", ".d8"
and ".d32" suffixes can be used to swap register operands or specify
displacement size, they aren't very flexible. This patch adds pseudo
prefixes, {xxx}, to control instruction encoding. The available
pseudo prefixes are {disp8}, {disp32}, {load}, {store}, {vex2}, {vex3}
and {evex}. Pseudo prefixes are preferred over the ".s", ".d8" and
".d32" suffixes, which are deprecated.
