* NEWS: Add entry announcing the python directory.
2010-06-27 Joel Brobecker <brobecker@adacore.com>
* gdb.texinfo (Python): Document what the python directory is
and what its location is.
(Basic Python): Document the gdb.PYTHONDIR constant.
Consolidate code for displaying per-command time and space statistics to avoid
duplication. Piggyback on cleanups so that statistics get printed even when
commands terminate as a result of an error.
Changelog
* gdb/defs.h (make_command_stats_cleanup): Declare.
(set_display_time): Declare.
(set_display_space): Declare.
* gdb/event-top.c (command_handler): Use make_command_stats_cleanup.
* gdb/main.c (display_time, display_space): Move definitions to utils.c.
(captured_main): Use make_command_stats_cleanup to get start-up
statistics.
Use set_display_time and set_display_space for processing OPT_STATISTICS
case.
* gdb/maint.c (maintenance_time_display): Use set_display_time.
(maintenance_space_display): Use set_display_space.
* gdb/top.c (execute_command): Remove obsolete 'maint time' code.
(command_loop): Use make_command_stats_cleanup.
* gdb/utils.c (struct cmd_stats): Structure for storing initial time
and space usage.
(display_time, display_space): Move definitions here from utils.c.
(set_display_time): New function.
(set_display_space): New function.

* gdb/testsuite/gdb.gdb/selftest.exp: Adjust expected message for
capturing start-up runtime.
Test PR python/11407.
* gdb.dwarf2/dw2-ref-missing-frame-func.c: New file.
* gdb.dwarf2/dw2-ref-missing-frame.S: Use cu_text_start and cu_text_end.
Split main into func_nofb and func_loopfb dropping NO_FRAME_BASE.
* gdb.dwarf2/dw2-ref-missing-frame.exp: Remove variables sources,
executable_nofb and executable_fb. New variables srcsfile, objsfile,
srcfuncfile, objfuncfile, srcmainfile, objmainfile, executable and
binfile. Call gdb_compile with clean_restart twice.
(func_nofb print, func_nofb backtrace, func_loopfb print)
(func_loopfb backtrace): New.
* gdb.dwarf2/dw2-ref-missing-frame-main.c: New.
* gdb.dwarf2/dw2-ref-missing-frame.S: Replace compiler generated output
by a hand made one.
* gdb.dwarf2/dw2-ref-missing-frame.exp: Remove invalid comment. Remove
i?86 requirement. Remove variables srcfile and binfile. New variable
sources, executable_nofb and executable_fb. Call prepare_for_testing.
* vms-alpha.c (_bfd_vms_write_egsd): Set target_index field of
sections. Mark .vmsdebug section as SEC_DEBUGGING. Do not create
dummy psect anymore. Adjust.
(_bfd_vms_write_eeom): Adjust (use target_index instead of index)
(_bfd_vms_write_etir): Ditto.
(start_etir_or_etbt_record): Test for SEC_DEBUGGING instead of
section name. Adjust.
* dwarf2expr.h (struct dwarf_value_location): Use ULONGEST as type
of stack values.
(struct dwarf_expr_piece): Rename "expr" member to "mem". Add new
"value" member.
(dwarf_expr_push): Change input type to ULONGEST.
(dwarf_expr_fetch): Change return type to ULONGEST.
(dwarf_expr_fetch_address): Add prototype.
(dwarf2_read_address): Remove prototype.
* dwarf2expr.c (dwarf_expr_push): Use ULONGEST as type of stack values.
Truncate stack values to ctx->addr_size bytes.
(dwarf_expr_fetch): Change return value to ULONGEST.
(dwarf_expr_fetch_address): New function.
(add_piece): Use dwarf_expr_fetch_address instead of dwarf_expr_fetch
when appropriate. Update for struct dwarf_expr_piece changes.
(dwarf2_read_address): Remove.
(unsigned_address_type): Remove.
(signed_address_type): Remove.
(execute_stack_op): Use dwarf_expr_fetch_address instead of
dwarf_expr_fetch when appropriate. Use ULONGEST as type of stack
values. Perform operations on ULONGEST instead of on GDB values,
sign-extending from ctx->addr_size bytes as needed. Read DW_OP_addr
values and DW_OP_deref results as unsigned integers.
* dwarf2loc.c (read_pieced_value): Update for struct dwarf_expr_piece
changes.
(write_pieced_value): Likewise.
(dwarf2_evaluate_loc_desc): Use dwarf_expr_fetch_address instead of
dwarf_expr_fetch when appropriate.
(compile_dwarf_to_ax): Read DW_OP_addr values as unsigned integers.
* dwarf2-frame.c (execute_stack_op): Use dwarf_expr_fetch_address
instead of dwarf_expr_fetch when appropriate.
testsuite/ChangeLog:
* gdb.cell/dwarfaddr.exp: New file.
* gdb.cell/dwarfaddr.S: New file.
(get_tls_mask, ppc_type_of_stub): Use it here.
(ppc64_elf_edit_opd): Ensure we only attempt to edit ppc64 input.
(ppc64_elf_tls_setup): Typo fix.
(adjust_toc_syms): Correctly handle symbols defined past the end
of the toc. Move syms on removed entries to next entry rather
than to start of toc.
(ppc64_elf_edit_toc): Likewise. Ensure we only attempt to
edit ppc64 input. Allocate one extra word in skip array.
Honour info->keep_memory when reading relocs if we can.
Adjust toc relocs after adjusting symbols.
* arm.cc (Target_arm::can_check_for_functions_pointers): Return true.
(Target_arm::section_may_have_icf_unsafe_pointers): New method
definition.
(Target_arm::Scan::local_reloc_may_be_function_pointer,
Target_arm::Scan::global_reloc_may_be_function_pointer): Implement
target hook to detect function points.
(Target_arm::Scan::possible_function_pointer_reloc): New method.
* icf.h (Icf::check_section_for_function_pointers): Change type of
parameter SECTION_NAME to const reference to std::string. Use
target hook to determine if section may have unsafe pointers.
* target.h (Target::section_may_have_icf_unsafe_pointers): New
method definition.
Python scripts to be used by GDB can be stored in that directory,
and will be automatically found by the interpreter when importing them.
This patch also sets up <gdb_pythondir>/gdb as the directory where gdb
submodules can be stored. For now, there is nothing there, but it can
now be added easily without further code changes.
gdb/ChangeLog:
2010-06-24 Joel Brobecker <brobecker@adacore.com>
* python/python.c (_initialize_python): Add new "constant"
PYTHONDIR in gdb module. Insert this path at the head of
sys.path. Set gdb.__path__ to gdb.PYTHONDIR + '/gdb' and
exec its __init__.py script if it exists in that directory.
