Provide a new completion function for the argument of "info
registers", "info all-registers", and the "lr" command in dbx mode.
Without this patch the default symbol completer is used, which is more
confusing than helpful.
Also add a test for this new feature to "completion.exp": Determine
the target's available set of registers/reggroups and compare this to
the completion of "info registers ". For determining the available
registers involve the new "maint print user-registers" command.
gdb/ChangeLog:
* completer.c: Include "target.h", "reggroups.h", and
"user-regs.h".

registers ".
This PR came from a Red Hat bug that was filed recently. I checked and
it still exists on HEAD, so here's a proposed fix. Although this is
marked as a Python backend bug, this is really about the completion
mechanism used by GDB. Since this code reminds me of my first attempt
to make a good noodle, it took me quite some time to fix it in a
non-intrusive way.
The problem is triggered when one registers a completion method inside a
class in a Python script, rather than registering the command using a
completer class directly. For example, consider the following script:
class MyFirstCommand(gdb.Command):
def __init__(self):
gdb.Command.__init__(self,'myfirstcommand',gdb.COMMAND_USER,gdb.COMPLETE_FILENAME)
def invoke(self,argument,from_tty):
raise gdb.GdbError('not implemented')
class MySecondCommand(gdb.Command):
def __init__(self):
gdb.Command.__init__(self,'mysecondcommand',gdb.COMMAND_USER)
def invoke(self,argument,from_tty):
raise gdb.GdbError('not implemented')
def complete(self,text,word):
return gdb.COMPLETE_FILENAME
MyFirstCommand ()
MySecondCommand ()
When one loads this into GDB and tries to complete filenames for both
myfirstcommand and mysecondcommand, she gets:
(gdb) myfirstcommand /hom<TAB>
(gdb) myfirstcommand /home/
^
...
(gdb) mysecondcommand /hom<TAB>
(gdb) mysecondcommand /home
^
(The "^" marks the final position of the cursor after the TAB).
So we see that myfirstcommand honors the COMPLETE_FILENAME class (as
specified in the command creation), but mysecondcommand does not. After
some investigation, I found that the problem lies with the set of word
break characters that is used for each case. The set should be the same
for both commands, but it is not.
During the process of deciding which type of completion should be used,
the code in gdb/completer.c:complete_line_internal analyses the command
that requested the completion and tries to determine the type of
completion wanted by checking which completion function will be called
(e.g., filename_completer for filenames, location_completer for
locations, etc.).
This all works fine for myfirstcommand, because immediately after the
command registration the Python backend already sets its completion
function to filename_completer (which then causes the
complete_line_internal function to choose the right set of word break
chars). However, for mysecondcommand, this decision is postponed to
when the completer function is evaluated, and the Python backend uses an
internal completer (called cmdpy_completer). complete_line_internal
doesn't know about this internal completer, and can't choose the right
set of word break chars in time, which then leads to a bad decision when
completing the "/hom" word.
So, after a few attempts, I decided to create another callback in
"struct cmd_list_element" that will be responsible for handling the case
when there is an unknown completer function for complete_line_internal
to work with. So far, only the Python backend uses this callback, and
only when the user provides a completer method instead of registering
the command directly with a completer class. I think this is the best
option because it not very intrusive (all the other commands will still
work normally), but especially because the whole completion code is so
messy that it would be hard to fix this without having to redesign
things.
I have regtested this on Fedora 18 x86_64, without regressions. I also
included a testcase.

This is sort of a continuation of Keith's parse_exp_1 constification
patch. It started out by undoing these bits:
@@ -754,9 +754,12 @@ validate_actionline (char **line, struct
tmp_p = p;

- p = tmp_p;
- exp = parse_exp_1 (&p, loc->address,
+ const char *q;

+ exp = parse_exp_1 (&q, loc->address,
block_for_pc (loc->address), 1);
+ p = (char *) q;
and progressively making more things const upwards, fixing fallout,
rinse repeat, until GDB built again (--enable-targets=all).
That ended up constifying lookup_cmd/add_cmd and (lots of) friends,
and the completers.
I didn't try to constify the command hooks themselves, because I know
upfront there are commands that write to the command string argument,
and I think I managed to stop at a nice non-hacky split point already.
I think the only non-really-super-obvious changes are
tracepoint.c:validate_actionline, and tracepoint.c:trace_dump_actions.
The rest is just mostly about 'char *' => 'const char *', 'char **'=>
'const char **', and the occasional (e.g., deprecated_cmd_warning)
case of 'char **'=> 'const char *', where/when I noticed that nothing
actually cares about the pointer to pointer output.

Two modifications:
1. The addition of 2013 to the copyright year range for every file;
2. The use of a single year range, instead of potentially multiple
year ranges, as approved by the FSF.
There are a bunch of aliases that get used with help, but the current
command completion logic does not include those when doing completions.
Since the framework is already mostly in place, extend complete_on_cmdlist
slightly to pass down the ignore_help_classes flag like is done with the
existing lookup command logic.
Now you can do:
(gdb) help use<tab>
and get back:
(gdb) help user-defined

The command line completion has spoiled me. Thus the lack of completion with
the "handle" command annoys me. Patch!
This does a few things:
- adds a VEC_merge helper
- adds a generic signal completer
- adds a completion handler for the "handle" command
- sets the completion handler for the "signal" command
