Before commit e8032dde10,
gdb/thread.c:update_thread_list used to call prune_threads, after that change
it doesn't anymore, and we don't implement the to_update_thread_list target
method where the prune_threads call got moved. For now, apply a fix, related
to commit c82f56d9d7 "Hurd: Adjust to
startup-with-shell changes", which restores the previous behavior:

disassembler making a delay-slot adjustment for PC-relative operations
following either MIPS16e compact jumps, or undefined RR/J(AL)R(C)
encodings that have the `l' (link) and `ra' (source register is `ra')

I got a report of a gdb crash for vle and further investigation showed an
attempt to disassemble an invalid memory range. I tracked the crash down
to the code in get_powerpc_dialect, where we fail to make sure we have a
valid section pointer before dereferencing it.
There is no such problem for rs6000-based disassembling.
opcodes/ChangeLog:
2016-12-08 Luis Machado <lgustavo@codesourcery.com>
* ppc-dis.c (get_powerpc_dialect): Check NULL info->section.
A branch in a non-exec section that needs a stub can lead to this
assertion.
* powerpc.cc (Powerpc_relobj::stub_table): Return NULL rather
then asserting.
Follow-up to commit 14f6890677.
global_thread_id_to_ptid expects global thread numbers, which are nowadays only
used in MI, never presented to the user in the CLI. Since this is a CLI
command, it should accept the inferior-qualified format instead.
gdb/
* gnu-nat.c (set_sig_thread_cmd): Use parse_thread_id instead of
global_thread_id_to_ptid.
..., so handle these in "C" mode still:
gdb/
* config/i386/i386gnu.mh (%_S.o %_U.o): Add "-x c" to
"COMPILE.post".
* gnu-nat.c: #include Mach/Hurd headers before all others. Wrap
Mach/Hurd headers and MIG stubs' prototypes in 'extern "C"'.
* i386-gnu-nat.c: Likewise.
GNU/Hurd uses its own "typedef enum __error_t_codes error_t;"
([glibc]/sysdeps/mach/hurd/bits/errno.h), contrary to the default
"typedef int error_t;" ([glibc]/stdlib/errno.h).
The Mach/Hurd RPCs return kern_return_t values, for which, upon assigning them
to an error_t variable, GCC in C++ mode tells us "error: invalid conversion
from 'kern_return_t {aka int}' to 'error_t {aka __error_t_codes}'". Instead of
casting all these RPC return values to "error_t", just use "kern_return_t"
variables:

* gnu-nat.c (proc_get_exception_port, proc_set_exception_port)
(INF_RESUME_MSGPORT_RPC, proc_get_state, _proc_get_exc_port)

(port_msgs_queued, gnu_read_inferior, gnu_write_inferior)
(gnu_find_memory_regions, steal_exc_port, thread_takeover_sc_cmd)
(flush_inferior_icache): Instead of "error_t" use "kern_return_t".
* i386-gnu-nat.c (fetch_fpregs, store_fpregs, i386_gnu_dr_get)
(i386_gnu_dr_set): Likewise.
... by a bit of code refactoring:
gdb/
* gnu-nat.c (set_task_pause_cmd, set_signals_cmd)
(set_exceptions_cmd): Add variants taking an "int arg" instead of
a "char *". Make the "char *" variants use the former.
(set_noninvasive_cmd): Also use the "int arg" variants.
C++ doesn't do implicit type conversions from "void *", so we have to...
gdb/
* i386-gnu-nat.c (i386_gnu_dr_set_control_one)
(i386_gnu_dr_set_addr_one): Explicitly cast "void *".
Replace a global `mips_opts.isa' reference in `is_opcode_valid' and use
a local copy just made in `isa'. No functional change.
gas/
* config/tc-mips.c (is_opcode_valid): Use local `isa'
consistently.
Adds a new option, defaulting to off, that allows a group of stubs to
serve multiple output sections. Prior to this patch powerpc gold
allowed this unconditionally, which is a little unsafe with clever
code that discards/reuses sections at runtime.
* options.h (--stub-group-multi): New PowerPC option.
* powerpc.cc (Stub_control): Add multi_os_ var and param
to constructor. Sort start_ var later. Comment State.
(Stub_control::can_add_to_stub_group): Heed multi_os_.
(Target_powerpc::group_sections): Update.
Gold attaches stubs to an existing section in contrast to ld.bfd which
inserts a new section for stubs. If we want stubs before branches,
then the stubs must be added to the previous section. Adding to the
previous section is a disaster if there is a large gap between the
previous section and the group.

In the case where we switch to a non-running inferior, we do a
"find_inferior_id (num)", although we did the same call right before.

This patch adds asserts where the value's lval must be lval_register.
This triggers an error in frame_register_unwind because VALUE_REGNUM
is used but value's lval is not lval_register.
This also reveals a design issue in frame_register_unwind, that is
arguments addrp and realnump are mutually exclusive, we either use
addrp (for lval_memory), or use realnump (for lval_register). This
can be done in a separate patch.
