changes one spot in ada-lang.c to use this function rather than doing
it on its own.

In some cases, GNAT can emit 128-bit constants for fixed-point types.
This patch changes gdb to handle this scenario, by changing the
low-level rational-reading functions in dwarf2/read.c to work directly
with gdb_mpz values. (I'm not sure offhand if these 128-bit patches
have gone into upstream GCC yet -- but they will eventually, and
meanwhile I think it should be clear that this patch is otherwise
harmless.)

Since commit 7c6f271296 ("gdb: make get_discrete_bounds check for
non-constant range bounds"), subscripting flexible array member fails:
struct no_size
{
int n;
int items[];
};
(gdb) p *ns
$1 = {n = 3, items = 0x5555555592a4}
(gdb) p ns->items[0]
Cannot access memory at address 0xfffe555b733a0164
(gdb) p *((int *) 0x5555555592a4)
$2 = 101 <--- we would expect that
(gdb) p &ns->items[0]
$3 = (int *) 0xfffe5559ee829a24 <--- wrong address
Since the flexible array member (items) has an unspecified size, the array type
created for it in the DWARF doesn't have dimensions (this is with gcc 9.3.0,
Ubuntu 20.04):
0x000000a4: DW_TAG_array_type
DW_AT_type [DW_FORM_ref4] (0x00000038 "int")
DW_AT_sibling [DW_FORM_ref4] (0x000000b3)
0x000000ad: DW_TAG_subrange_type
DW_AT_type [DW_FORM_ref4] (0x00000031 "long unsigned int")
This causes GDB to create a range type (TYPE_CODE_RANGE) with a defined
constant low bound (dynamic_prop with kind PROP_CONST) and an undefined
high bound (dynamic_prop with kind PROP_UNDEFINED).
value_subscript gets both bounds of that range using
get_discrete_bounds. Before commit 7c6f271296, get_discrete_bounds
didn't check the kind of the dynamic_props and would just blindly read
them as if they were PROP_CONST. It would return 0 for the high bound,
because we zero-initialize the range_bounds structure. And it didn't
really matter in this case, because the returned high bound wasn't used
in the end.
Commit 7c6f271296 changed get_discrete_bounds to return a failure if
either the low or high bound is not a constant, to make sure we don't
read a dynamic prop that isn't a PROP_CONST as a PROP_CONST. This
change made get_discrete_bounds start to return a failure for that
range, and as a result would not set *lowp and *highp. And since
value_subscript doesn't check get_discrete_bounds' return value, it just
carries on an uses an uninitialized value for the low bound. If
value_subscript did check the return value of get_discrete_bounds, we
would get an error message instead of a bogus value. But it would still
be a bug, as we wouldn't be able to print the flexible array member's
elements.
Looking at value_subscript, we see that the low bound is always needed,
but the high bound is only needed if !c_style. So, change
value_subscript to use get_discrete_low_bound and
get_discrete_high_bound separately. This fixes the case described
above, where the low bound is known but the high bound isn't (and is not
needed). This restores the original behavior without accessing a
dynamic_prop in a wrong way.
A test is added. In addition to the case described above, a case with
an array member of size 0 is added, which is a GNU C extension that
existed before flexible array members were introduced. That case
currently fails when compiled with gcc <= 8. gcc <= 8 produces DWARF
similar to the one shown above, while gcc 9 adds a DW_AT_count of 0 in
there, which makes the high bound known. A case where an array member
of size 0 is the only member of the struct is also added, as that was
how PR 28675 was originally reported, and it's an interesting corner
case that I think could trigger other funny bugs.
Question about the implementation: in value_subscript, I made it such
that if the low or high bound is unknown, we fall back to zero. That
effectively makes it the same as it was before 7c6f271296. But should
we instead error() out?

get_discrete_bounds is not flexible for ranges (TYPE_CODE_RANGE), in the
sense that it returns true (success) only if both bounds are present and
constant values.
This is a problem for code that only needs to know the low bound and
fails unnecessarily if the high bound is unknown.
Split the function in two, get_discrete_low_bound and
get_discrete_high_bound, that both return an optional. Provide a new
implementation of get_discrete_bounds based on the two others, so the
callers don't have to be changed.

get_discrete_bounds currently has three possible return values (see its
current doc for details). It appears that for all callers, it would be
sufficient to have a boolean "worked" / "didn't work" return value.

callers. Doing so simplifies the following patch.

smart_rename is capable of handling symlinks by copying and it also
tries to preserve ownership and permissions of files when they're
overwritten during the rename. This is useful in objcopy where the
file properties need to be preserved.
However because smart_rename does this using file names, it leaves a
race window between renames and permission fixes. This change removes
this race window by using file descriptors from the original BFDs that
were used to manipulate these files wherever possible.
The file that is to be renamed is also passed as a file descriptor so
that we use fchown/fchmod on the file descriptor, thus making sure
that we only modify the file we have opened to write. Further, in
case the file is to be overwritten (as is the case in ar or objcopy),
the permissions that need to be restored are taken from the file
descriptor that was opened for input so that integrity of the file
status is maintained all the way through to the rename.

gdb/breakpoint: add flags to 'condition' and 'break' commands to force condition
introduced the '-force-condition' flag to the 'break' command. This
flag was defined as a keyword like 'thread', 'task', and 'if'.
However, it starts with '-'. This difference caused an uncovered case
when tab-completing a seemingly complete linespec.
Below, we see "-force-condition" in the completion list, where both
the options and the keywords are listed:
(gdb) break -function main <TAB>
-force-condition -function -label -line -qualified
-source if task thread
But tab-completing '-' lists only options:
(gdb) break -function main -<TAB>
-function -label -line -qualified -source
This patch fixes the problem by adding keywords to the completion
list, so that we see:
(gdb) break -function main -<TAB>
-force-condition -function -label -line -qualified -source

* gdb.linespec/explicit.exp: Extend with a test to check completing

The break command's "-force-condition" flag is currently required to

other keywords, e.g. "thread":
(gdb) break main -force-condition thread 1 if foo
Function "main -force-condition" not defined.
Make breakpoint pending on future shared library load? (y or [n]) n
Remove the requirement that "-force-condition" is always followed by
an "if", so that more flexibility is obtained when positioning
keywords.

Suppose we have the script file below:
break main
commands
print 123
end
run
If started with this script file, GDB executes the breakpoint command:
$ gdb -q -x myscript --args ./test
Reading symbols from ./test...
Breakpoint 1 at 0x114e: file test.c, line 2.
Breakpoint 1, main () at test.c:2
2 return 0;
$1 = 123
(gdb)
However, if we remove the "run" line from the script and pass it with
the '-ex' option instead, the command is not executed:
$ gdb -q -x myscript_no_run --args ./test
Reading symbols from ./test...
Breakpoint 1 at 0x114e: file test.c, line 2.
Starting program: /path/to/test
Breakpoint 1, main () at test.c:2
2 return 0;
(gdb)
If the user enters a command at this point, the breakpoint command
is executed, yielding weird output:
$ gdb -q -x myscript_no_run --args ./test
Reading symbols from ./test...
Breakpoint 1 at 0x114e: file test.c, line 2.
Starting program: /path/to/test
Breakpoint 1, main () at test.c:2
2 return 0;
(gdb) print "a"
$1 = "a"
$2 = 123
When consuming script files, GDB runs bp actions after executing a
command. See `command_handler` in event-top.c:
if (c[0] != '#')
{
execute_command (command, ui->instream == ui->stdin_stream);
/* Do any commands attached to breakpoint we stopped at. */
bpstat_do_actions ();
}
However, for '-ex' commands, `bpstat_do_actions` is not invoked.
Hence, the misaligned output explained above occurs. To fix the
problem, add a call to `bpstat_do_actions` after executing a command.

This fixes a long-lived bug in the s390 port.
When trying to step over a breakpoint set on a BC (branch on condition)
instruction with displaced stepping on IBM Z, gdb would incorrectly
adjust the pc regardless of whether or not the branch was taken. Since
the branch target is an absolute address, this would cause the inferior
to jump around wildly whenever the branch was taken, either crashing it
or causing it to behave unpredictably.
It turns out that the logic to handle BC instructions correctly was in
the code, but that the enum value representing its opcode has always
been incorrect.
This patch corrects the enum value to the actual opcode, fixing the
stepping problem. The enum value is also used in the prologue analysis
code, so this also fixes a minor bug where more of the prologue would
be read than was necessary.

* s390-tdep.h (op_bc): Correct BC opcode value.
The gdb_mpz class currently provides a couple of methods which
essentially export an mpz_t value into either a buffer, or an integral
type. The export is based on using the mpz_export function which
we discovered can be a bit treacherous if used without caution.
In particular, the initial motivation for this patch was to catch
situations where the mpz_t value was so large that it would not fit
in the destination area. mpz_export does not know the size of
the buffer, and therefore can happily write past the end of our buffer.
While designing a solution to the above problem, I also discovered
that we also needed to be careful when exporting signed numbers.
In particular, numbers which are larger than the maximum value
for a given signed type size, but no so large as to fit in the
*unsigned* version with the same size, would end up being exported
incorrectly. This is related to the fact that mpz_export ignores
the sign of the value being exportd, and assumes an unsigned export.
Thus, for such large values, the appears as if mpz_export is able
to fit our value into our buffer, but in fact, it does not.
Also, I noticed that gdb_mpz::write wasn't taking its unsigned_p
parameter, which was a hole.
For all these reasons, a new low-level private method called
"safe_export" has been added to class gdb_mpz, whose goal is
to perform all necessary checks and manipulations for a safe
and correct export. As a bonus, this method allows us to factorize
the handling of negative value exports.
The gdb_mpz::as_integer and gdb_mpz::write methods are then simplified
to take advantage of this new safe_export method.

Match the condition used in `elf_vax_instantiate_got_entries' for the
creation of GOT entries in the processing of R_VAX_GOT32 relocations in
`elf_vax_check_relocs', removing incorrect warnings about a GOT addend
mismatch like:
./ld-new: tmpdir/got-local-ref-off-r.o: warning: GOT addend of 1 to `bar_hidden' does not match previous GOT addend of 0
./ld-new: tmpdir/got-local-ref-off-r.o: warning: GOT addend of 2 to `bar_hidden' does not match previous GOT addend of 0
and corresponding failures with the test cases newly added here:
FAIL: GOT test (executable hidden reference with offset)
FAIL: GOT test (executable visible reference with offset)
for symbols that are considered local for reasons other than having been
forced local with a version script, which is usually the ELF visibility.
Correct code is produced regardless, but the warning breaks `-Werror'
compilation and may upset people regardless.
Interestingly this shows with executable links only, because in shared
library links code from `elf_link_add_object_symbols' triggers:
/* If the symbol already has a dynamic index, but
visibility says it should not be visible, turn it into
a local symbol. */
switch (ELF_ST_VISIBILITY (h->other))
{
case STV_INTERNAL:
case STV_HIDDEN:
(*bed->elf_backend_hide_symbol) (info, h, TRUE);
dynsym = FALSE;
break;
}
that sets `h->forced_local' like with a version script.
Add suitable test cases including disassembly to verify correct code has
been produced where no warnings have been issued, and that warnings do
get issued where necessary. Do not verify (broken) code produced in the
latter case; we should probably make the warning an error, or preferably
actually start supporting GOT references with different addends as they
appear feasible with explicitly relocated GOT that we use.

In a couple of gdb_mpz methods, we are computing the number of
bits in a gdb::array_view of gdb_byte. Since gdb_byte is defined
using a host-side type (see common-types.h), the number of bits
in a gdb_byte should be HOST_CHAR_BIT, not TARGET_CHAR_BIT.

* gmp-utils.c (gdb_mpz::read): Use HOST_CHAR_BIT instead of
TARGET_CHAR_BIT.

Since converting load to mov needs to rewrite the REX byte and we don't

As observed on a binary compiled on AMD64 Ubuntu 20.04, against glibc
2.31 (I think it's the libc that provides this startup code, right?),
there are enough bytes at the executable's entry point to hold more than
one displaced step buffer. gdbarch_max_insn_length is 16, and the
code at _start looks like:
0000000000001040 <_start>:
1040: f3 0f 1e fa endbr64
1044: 31 ed xor %ebp,%ebp

106e: f4 hlt
106f: 90 nop
The two buffers would occupy [0x1040, 0x1060).
I checked on Alpine, which uses the musl C library, the startup code
looks like:
0000000000001048 <_start>:
1048: 48 31 ed xor %rbp,%rbp

Even though there's a _start_c symbol, it all appears to be code that
runs once at the very beginning of the program, so it looks fine if the
two buffers occupy [0x1048, 0x1068).
One important thing I discovered while doing this is that when debugging
a dynamically-linked executable, breakpoints in the shared library
loader are hit before executing the _start code, and these breakpoints
may be displaced-stepped. So it's very important that the buffer bytes
are restored properly after doing the displaced steps, otherwise the
_start code will be corrupted once we try to execute it.
Another thing that made me think about is that library constructors (as
in `__attribute__((constructor))`) run before _start. And they are free
to spawn threads. What if one of these threads executes a displaced
step, therefore changing the bytes at _start, while the main thread
executes _start? That doesn't sound good and I don't know how we could
prevent it. But this is a problem that predates the current patch.
Even when stress-testing the implementation, by making many threads do
displaced steps over and over, I didn't see a significant performance (I
confirmed that the two buffers were used by checking the "set debug
displaced" logs though). However, this patch mostly helps make the
feature testable by anybody with an AMD64/Linux machine, so I think it's
useful.

The following patch will need to fill a field in linux_gdbarch_data
while the gdbarch is being built. linux_gdbarch_data is currently
allocated as a post-init gdbarch data, meaning it's not possible to fill
it before the gdbarch is completely initialized. Change it to a
pre-init gdbarch data to allow this.
The init_linux_gdbarch_data function doesn't use the created gdbarch,
it only allocates the linux_gdbarch_data structure on the gdbarch's
obstack, so the change is trivial.

* linux-tdep.c (init_linux_gdbarch_data): Change parameter to

Today, GDB only allows a single displaced stepping operation to happen
per inferior at a time. There is a single displaced stepping buffer per
inferior, whose address is fixed (obtained with
gdbarch_displaced_step_location), managed by infrun.c.
In the case of the AMD ROCm target [1] (in the context of which this
work has been done), it is typical to have thousands of threads (or
waves, in SMT terminology) executing the same code, hitting the same
breakpoint (possibly conditional) and needing to to displaced step it at
the same time. The limitation of only one displaced step executing at a
any given time becomes a real bottleneck.
To fix this bottleneck, we want to make it possible for threads of a
same inferior to execute multiple displaced steps in parallel. This
patch builds the foundation for that.
In essence, this patch moves the task of preparing a displaced step and
cleaning up after to gdbarch functions. This allows using different
schemes for allocating and managing displaced stepping buffers for
different platforms. The gdbarch decides how to assign a buffer to a
thread that needs to execute a displaced step.
On the ROCm target, we are able to allocate one displaced stepping
buffer per thread, so a thread will never have to wait to execute a
displaced step.
On Linux, the entry point of the executable if used as the displaced
stepping buffer, since we assume that this code won't get used after
startup. From what I saw (I checked with a binary generated against
glibc and musl), on AMD64 we have enough space there to fit two
displaced stepping buffers. A subsequent patch makes AMD64/Linux use
two buffers.
In addition to having multiple displaced stepping buffers, there is also
the idea of sharing displaced stepping buffers between threads. Two
threads doing displaced steps for the same PC could use the same buffer
at the same time. Two threads stepping over the same instruction (same
opcode) at two different PCs may also be able to share a displaced
stepping buffer. This is an idea for future patches, but the
architecture built by this patch is made to allow this.
Now, the implementation details. The main part of this patch is moving
the responsibility of preparing and finishing a displaced step to the
gdbarch. Before this patch, preparing a displaced step is driven by the
displaced_step_prepare_throw function. It does some calls to the
gdbarch to do some low-level operations, but the high-level logic is
there. The steps are roughly:
- Ask the gdbarch for the displaced step buffer location
- Save the existing bytes in the displaced step buffer
- Ask the gdbarch to copy the instruction into the displaced step buffer
- Set the pc of the thread to the beginning of the displaced step buffer
Similarly, the "fixup" phase, executed after the instruction was
successfully single-stepped, is driven by the infrun code (function
displaced_step_finish). The steps are roughly:
- Restore the original bytes in the displaced stepping buffer
- Ask the gdbarch to fixup the instruction result (adjust the target's
registers or memory to do as if the instruction had been executed in
its original location)
The displaced_step_inferior_state::step_thread field indicates which
thread (if any) is currently using the displaced stepping buffer, so it
is used by displaced_step_prepare_throw to check if the displaced
stepping buffer is free to use or not.
This patch defers the whole task of preparing and cleaning up after a
displaced step to the gdbarch. Two new main gdbarch methods are added,
with the following semantics:
- gdbarch_displaced_step_prepare: Prepare for the given thread to
execute a displaced step of the instruction located at its current PC.
Upon return, everything should be ready for GDB to resume the thread
(with either a single step or continue, as indicated by
gdbarch_displaced_step_hw_singlestep) to make it displaced step the
instruction.
- gdbarch_displaced_step_finish: Called when the thread stopped after
having started a displaced step. Verify if the instruction was
executed, if so apply any fixup required to compensate for the fact
that the instruction was executed at a different place than its
original pc. Release any resources that were allocated for this
displaced step. Upon return, everything should be ready for GDB to
resume the thread in its "normal" code path.
The displaced_step_prepare_throw function now pretty much just offloads
to gdbarch_displaced_step_prepare and the displaced_step_finish function
offloads to gdbarch_displaced_step_finish.
The gdbarch_displaced_step_location method is now unnecessary, so is
removed. Indeed, the core of GDB doesn't know how many displaced step
buffers there are nor where they are.
To keep the existing behavior for existing architectures, the logic that
was previously implemented in infrun.c for preparing and finishing a
displaced step is moved to displaced-stepping.c, to the
displaced_step_buffer class. Architectures are modified to implement
the new gdbarch methods using this class. The behavior is not expected
to change.
The other important change (which arises from the above) is that the
core of GDB no longer prevents concurrent displaced steps. Before this
patch, start_step_over walks the global step over chain and tries to
initiate a step over (whether it is in-line or displaced). It follows
these rules:
- if an in-line step is in progress (in any inferior), don't start any
other step over
- if a displaced step is in progress for an inferior, don't start
another displaced step for that inferior
After starting a displaced step for a given inferior, it won't start
another displaced step for that inferior.
In the new code, start_step_over simply tries to initiate step overs for
all the threads in the list. But because threads may be added back to
the global list as it iterates the global list, trying to initiate step
overs, start_step_over now starts by stealing the global queue into a
local queue and iterates on the local queue. In the typical case, each
thread will either:
- have initiated a displaced step and be resumed
- have been added back by the global step over queue by
displaced_step_prepare_throw, because the gdbarch will have returned
that there aren't enough resources (i.e. buffers) to initiate a
displaced step for that thread
Lastly, if start_step_over initiates an in-line step, it stops
iterating, and moves back whatever remaining threads it had in its local
step over queue to the global step over queue.
Two other gdbarch methods are added, to handle some slightly annoying
corner cases. They feel awkwardly specific to these cases, but I don't
see any way around them:
- gdbarch_displaced_step_copy_insn_closure_by_addr: in
arm_pc_is_thumb, arm-tdep.c wants to get the closure for a given
buffer address.
- gdbarch_displaced_step_restore_all_in_ptid: when a process forks
(at least on Linux), the address space is copied. If some displaced
step buffers were in use at the time of the fork, we need to restore
the original bytes in the child's address space.
These two adjustments are also made in infrun.c:
- prepare_for_detach: there may be multiple threads doing displaced
steps when we detach, so wait until all of them are done
- handle_inferior_event: when we handle a fork event for a given
thread, it's possible that other threads are doing a displaced step at
the same time. Make sure to restore the displaced step buffer
contents in the child for them.

This is a preparatory patch to reduce the size of the diff of the
upcoming main patch. It introduces enum types for the return values of
displaced step "prepare" and "finish" operations. I find that this
expresses better the intention of the code, rather than returning
arbitrary integer values (-1, 0 and 1) which are difficult to remember.
That makes the code easier to read.
I put the new enum types in a new displaced-stepping.h file, because I
introduce that file in a later patch anyway. Putting it there avoids
having to move it later.
There is one change in behavior for displaced_step_finish: it currently
returns 0 if the thread wasn't doing a displaced step and 1 if the
thread was doing a displaced step which was executed successfully. It
turns out that this distinction is not needed by any caller, so I've
merged these two cases into "_OK", rather than adding an extra
enumerator.

This is a preparatory patch to reduce a little bit the diff size of the
main patch later in this series. It renames the displaced_step_fixup
function in infrun.c to displaced_step_finish.
The rationale is to better differentiate the low and high level
operations.
We first have the low level operation of writing an instruction to a
displaced buffer, called "copy_insn". The mirror low level operation to
fix up the state after having executed the instruction is "fixup". The
high level operation of preparing a thread for a displaced step (which
includes doing the "copy_insn" and some more bookkeeping) is called
"prepare" (as in displaced_step_prepare). The mirror high level
operation to cleaning up after a displaced step (which includes doing
the "fixup" and some more bookkeeping) is currently also called "fixup"
(as in displaced_step_fixup), just like the low level operation.
I think that choosing a different name for the low and high level
cleanup operation makes it clearer, hence "finish".

Rename step_over_queue_head to global_thread_step_over_chain_head, to
make it more obvious when reading code that we are touching the global
queue. Rename all functions that operate on it to have "global" in
their name, to make it clear on which chain they operate on. Also, in a
subsequent patch, we'll need both global and non-global versions of
these functions, so it will be easier to do the distinction if they are
named properly.
Normalize the naming to use "chain" everywhere instead of sometimes
"queue", sometimes "chain".
I also reworded a few comments in gdbthread.h. They implied that the
step over chain is per-inferior, when in reality there is only one
global chain, not one per inferior, as far as I understand.

Remove function get_displaced_stepping_state. When it was introduced,
inferiors' displaced stepping state was kept in a linked list in
infrun.c, so it was handy. Nowadays, the state is kept inside struct
inferior directly, so we can just access it directly instead.
gdb/ChangeLog:
* infrun.c (get_displaced_stepping_state): Remove, change
callers to access the field directly.

In handle_inferior_event, where we handle forks, we make sure to restore
the bytes of the displaced stepping buffer in the child's address
space. However, we only do it when the forking thread was the one
doing a displaced step. It could happen that a thread forks while
another one is doing a displaced step. In this case, we also need to
restore the bytes in the child.
Move the byte-restoring code outside of the condition that checks
whether the event thread was displaced stepping.
gdb/ChangeLog:
* infrun.c (handle_inferior_event): Restore displaced step
buffer bytes in child process when handling fork, even if fork
happened in another thread than the displaced-stepping one.

When a process does an exec, all its program space is replaced with the
newly loaded executable. All non-main threads disappear and the main
thread starts executing at the entry point of the new executable.
Things can go wrong if a displaced step operation is in progress while
we process the exec event.
If the main thread is the one executing the displaced step: when that
thread (now executing in the new executable) stops somewhere (say, at a
breakpoint), displaced_step_fixup will run and clear up the state. We
will execute the "fixup" phase for the instruction we single-stepped in
the old program space. We are now in a completely different context,
so doing the fixup may corrupt the state.
If it is a non-main thread that is doing the displaced step: while
handling the exec event, GDB deletes the thread_info representing that
thread (since the thread doesn't exist in the inferior after the exec).
But inferior::displaced_step_state::step_thread will still point to it.
When handling events later, this condition, in displaced_step_fixup,
will likely never be true:
/* Was this event for the thread we displaced? */
if (displaced->step_thread != event_thread)
return 0;
... since displaced->step_thread points to a deleted thread (unless that
storage gets re-used for a new thread_info, but that wouldn't be good
either). This effectively makes the displaced stepping buffer occupied
for ever. When a thread in the new program space will want to do a
displaced step, it will wait for ever.
I think we simply need to reset the displaced stepping state of the
inferior on exec. Everything execution-related that existed before the
exec is now gone.
Similarly, if a thread does an in-line step over an exec syscall
instruction, nothing clears the in-line step over info when the event is
handled. So it the in-line step over info stays there indefinitely, and
things hang because we can never start another step over. To fix this,
I added a call to clear_step_over_info in infrun_inferior_execd.
Add a test with a program with two threads that does an exec. The test
includes the following axes:
- whether it's the leader thread or the other thread that does the exec.
- whether the exec'r and exec'd program have different text segment
addresses. This is to hopefully catch cases where the displaced
stepping info doesn't get reset, and GDB later tries to restore bytes
of the old address space in the new address space. If the mapped
addresses are different, we should get some memory error. This
happens without the patch applied:

- Whether displaced stepping is allowed or not, so that we end up
testing both displaced stepping and in-line stepping on arches that do
support displaced stepping (otherwise, it just tests in-line stepping
twice I suppose)
To be able to precisely put a breakpoint on the syscall instruction, I
added a small assembly file (lib/my-syscalls.S) that contains minimal
Linux syscall wrappers. I prefer that to the strategy used in
gdb.base/step-over-syscall.exp, which is to stepi into the glibc wrapper
until we find something that looks like a syscall instruction, I find
that more predictable.

I want to add another action (clearing displaced stepping state) that
happens when an inferior execs. I think it would be cleaner to have an
observer for this event, rather than have infrun know about each other
sub-component.
Replace the calls to solib_create_inferior_hook and
jit_inferior_created_hook in follow_exec by observers.
gdb/ChangeLog:
* observable.h (inferior_execd): Declare new observable.
* observable.c (inferior_execd): Declare new observable.
* infrun.c (follow_exec): Notify inferior_execd observer.
* jit.c (jit_inferior_created_hook): Make static.
