These were written with 32-bit host assumptions baked into it.
Simplify the printf formats to use ll length modifier as it's
in C11 rather than trying to manually break it up into two,
and cleanup some of the casts to stop assuming sizeof(long) is
the same as sizeof(int).
We also have to add a few more includes for the various funcs
used in here.
The tests aren't compiled automatically still. We can figure
that out later with more work.

On SLE-11 I ran into:
...
(gdb) print $_probe_arg0^M
Cannot access memory at address 0x8000003fe05c^M
(gdb) FAIL: gdb.arch/amd64-stap-special-operands.exp: probe: three_arg: \
print $_probe_arg0
...
The memory cannot be accessed because the address used to evaluate
$_probe_arg0 at the probe point is incorrect.
The address is calculated using this expression:
...
.asciz "-4@-4(%rbp,%ebx,0)"
...
which uses $ebx, but $ebx is uninitialized at the probe point.
The test-case does contain a "movl $0, %ebx" insn to set $ebx to 0, but that
insn is placed after the probe point. We could fix this by moving the insn
to before the probe point. But, $ebx is also a callee-save register, so
normally, if we modify it, we also need to save and restore it, which is
currently not done. This is currently not harmful, because we don't run the
test-case further than the probe point, but it's bound to cause confusion.
So, fix this instead by using $eax instead in the expression, and moving the
insn setting $eax to 0 to before the probe point.

Now that all ports have opted in to this, we can require it in the
core. It guarantees that new ports have them turned on, and defaults
to -Werror in the hopes that new ports keep their code clean from the
start. We do this as a sep commit to make it clear that there are no
changes to existing ports as they've all explicitly called it already.
We want all ports to opt into extra warnings as the default compiler
settings lets a lot slide. Opt all the ports that haven't already in
to the warning system. None of them build with -Werror, so disable
that by default. Hopefully someone finds these important enough to
start fixing at some point.
Make sure config.h is included before C library headers otherwise the
later libiberty.h include gets confused about asprintf state leading
to warnings like:
common/sim-utils.c:330:9:
warning: implicit declaration of function 'vasprintf';
did you mean 'xvasprintf'? [-Wimplicit-function-declaration]
For 32-bit targets, %x happens to work for unsigned_word. But for
64-bit targets, it's too small, and gcc throws an error. Use the
right printf format define for them.
This port declares its pc variable in a header and then includes
it multiple times. This causes linker errors with newer gcc due
to the change in -fno-common behavior. Move the storage to a C
file so we only have one instance of it in the final program.
Since we require C11 now, we can assume many headers exist, and
clean up all of the conditional includes. It's not like any of
this code actually accounted for the headers not existing, just
whether we could include them.
The strings.h cleanup is a little nuanced: it isn't in C11, but
every use of it in the codebase will include strings.h only if
string.h doesn't exist. Since we now assume the C11 string.h
exists, we'll never include strings.h, so we can delete it.
PR 23672 points out a crash in compile_to_object. This crash came in
during a C++-ization. This patch avoids the crash.
The PR also points out another weird behavior in this code, but that
one requires some setup that I don't have here, and it seems to date
back to the introduction of the compile feature. So, it isn't
addressed here. I will leave the PR open so this bug isn't forgotten.

Add the --enable-pgo-build[=lto] configure option. When binutils+gdb
is not built together with GCC, --enable-pgo-build enables the PGO build:
1. First build with -fprofile-generate.
2. Use "make maybe-check-*" to generate profiling data and pass -i to make
to ignore errors when generating profiling data.
3. Use "make clean" to remove the previous build.
4. Rebuild with -fprofile-use.
With --enable-pgo-build=lto, -flto=jobserver -ffat-lto-objects are used
together with -fprofile-generate and -fprofile-use. Add '+' to the command
line for recursive make to support -flto=jobserver -ffat-lto-objects.
NB: --enable-pgo-build=lto enables the PGO build with LTO while
--enable-lto enables LTO support in toolchain.

We've had this off for a long time because the sim code was way too
full of warnings for it to be feasible. However, I've cleaned things
up significantly from when this was first merged, and we can start to
turn this around.
Change the macro to enable -Werror by default, and allow ports to opt
out. New ports will get it automatically (and we can push back on
them if they try to turn it off).
Also turn it off for the few ports that still hit warnings for me.
All the rest will get the new default, and we'll wait for feedback
if/when new issues come up.

With GDB requiring a C++11 compiler now, this hopefully shouldn't
be a big deal. It's been 10 years since C11 came out, so should
be plenty of time to upgrade.
This will allow us to start cleaning up random header logic and
many of our non-standard custom types.
An earlier patch pointed out that nothing in GDB sets void_context_p
when parsing an expression. This patch fixes this omission.
"print" and "call" differ in that the former will print a value that
has void type, while the latter will not. AdaCore has had a patch for
a long time that uses this distinction to help with overload
resolution. In particular, in a "call" context, a procedure will be
chosen, while in a "print" context, a zero-argument function will be
chosen instead.
Regression tested on x86-64 Fedora 32.

gdb_abspath doesn't handle empty strings, so handle this case in the
callers. If a variable is defined but empty, I think it's reasonable in
this case to just ignore it, as if it was not defined.
Note that this sometimes also lead to a segfault, because the failed
assertion happens very early during startup, before things are fully
initialized.

gdb: fix potentially uninitialised variable
Was pushed with no test. Naughty!
The new test checks how GDB behaves when completing an invalid /FMT
string.
Currently GDB does no validation of the /FMT string during tab
completion, and just assumes that any /FMT string is valid and
complete when the user hits TAB. So:
(gdb) p/@@<TAB>
Will give:
(gdb) p/@@ <CURSOR IS HERE>
We already had a test in place for completion on a valid /FMT string,
but the above commit fixed a bug in the logic for completing invalid
/FMT strings. Now we have a test for this too.
gdb/testsuite/ChangeLog:
* gdb.base/completion.exp: Add a new test.
