Kevin Buettner e56cb451c9 section_table_xfer_memory: Replace section name with callback predicate
This patch is motivated by the need to be able to select sections
that section_table_xfer_memory_partial should consider for memory
transfers.  I'll use this facility in the next patch in this series.

section_table_xfer_memory_partial() can currently be passed a section
name which may be used to make name-based selections.  This is similar
to what I want to do, except that I want to be able to consider
section flags instead of the name.

I'm replacing the section name parameter with a predicate that,
when passed a pointer to a target_section struct, will return
true if that section should be further considered, or false which
indicates that it shouldn't.

I've converted the one existing use where a non-NULL section
name is passed to section_table_xfer_memory_partial().   Instead
of passing the section name, it now looks like this:

	  auto match_cb = [=] (const struct target_section *s)
	    {
	      return (strcmp (section_name, s->the_bfd_section->name) == 0);
	    };

	  return section_table_xfer_memory_partial (readbuf, writebuf,
						    memaddr, len, xfered_len,
						    table->sections,
						    table->sections_end,
						    match_cb);

The other callers all passed NULL; they've been simplified somewhat
in that they no longer need to pass NULL.

gdb/ChangeLog:

	* exec.h (section_table_xfer_memory): Revise declaration,
	replacing section name parameter with an optional callback
	predicate.
	* exec.c (section_table_xfer_memory): Likewise.
	* bfd-target.c, exec.c, target.c, corelow.c: Adjust all callers
	of section_table_xfer_memory.

		   README for GNU development tools

This directory contains various GNU compilers, assemblers, linkers, 
debuggers, etc., plus their support routines, definitions, and documentation.

If you are receiving this as part of a GDB release, see the file gdb/README.
If with a binutils release, see binutils/README;  if with a libg++ release,
see libg++/README, etc.  That'll give you info about this
package -- supported targets, how to use it, how to report bugs, etc.

It is now possible to automatically configure and build a variety of
tools with one command.  To build all of the tools contained herein,
run the ``configure'' script here, e.g.:

	./configure 
	make

To install them (by default in /usr/local/bin, /usr/local/lib, etc),
then do:
	make install

(If the configure script can't determine your type of computer, give it
the name as an argument, for instance ``./configure sun4''.  You can
use the script ``config.sub'' to test whether a name is recognized; if
it is, config.sub translates it to a triplet specifying CPU, vendor,
and OS.)

If you have more than one compiler on your system, it is often best to
explicitly set CC in the environment before running configure, and to
also set CC when running make.  For example (assuming sh/bash/ksh):

	CC=gcc ./configure
	make

A similar example using csh:

	setenv CC gcc
	./configure
	make

Much of the code and documentation enclosed is copyright by
the Free Software Foundation, Inc.  See the file COPYING or
COPYING.LIB in the various directories, for a description of the
GNU General Public License terms under which you can copy the files.

REPORTING BUGS: Again, see gdb/README, binutils/README, etc., for info
on where and how to report problems.
