tfile_fetch_registers currently wrongly fetches registers using
gdb order instead of g packet order. On x86_64 with AVX, this causes
problems with ymm*h and orig_rax registers: gdb has ymm*h first, while
g packet has orig_rax first.

One of the last checks update_breakpoints_after_exec does while looping
over the list of breakpoints is check that the breakpoint has a valid
location spec. It uses event_location_empty_p to check if the location spec
is "empty", and if it is, the breakpoint is deleted.
momentary_breakpoint types rely on setting the breakpoint structure's
location spec to NULL, thereby causing an update to delete the breakpoint.
However, event_location_empty_p assumed that locations were never NULL.
As a result, GDB would crash dereferencing a NULL pointer whenever
update_breakpoints_after_exec would encounter a momentary_breakpoint.
This patch creates a new wrapper/helper function which tests that the given
breakpoint's location spec is non-NULL and if it is not "empty"
or "unspecified."

MI is currently using string_to_event_location to enable the use of legacy
linespecs, but using this function (until this patchset) had the (as yet
unnoticed) side effect of allowing both MI and CLI representation for
explicit locations.

This patch refactors string_to_event_location, breaking it into two
separate functions:
1) string_to_event_location_basic
A "basic" string parser that implements support for "legacy" linespecs
(linespec, address, and probe locations). This function is intended to
be used by any UI wishing/needing to support this legacy behavior.
2) string_to_event_location
This is now intended as a CLI-only function which adds explicit location
parsing in a CLI-appropriate manner (in the form of traditional option/value
pairs).
Together these patches serve to simplify string-to-event location parsing
for all existing non-CLI interfaces (MI, guile, and python).

[PR17431: following execs with "breakpoint always-inserted on"]
https://sourceware.org/ml/gdb-patches/2014-09/msg00733.html
The problem this time is that we currently update the global location
list and try to insert breakpoint locations after re-setting _each_
breakpoint in turn.
Say:
- We have _more_ than one breakpoint set. Let's assume 2.
- There's a breakpoint with a pre-exec address that ends up being an
unmapped address after the exec.
- That breakpoint is NOT the first in the breakpoint list.
Then when handling an exec, and we re-set the first breakpoint in the
breakpoint list, we mistakently try to install the old pre-exec /
un-re-set locations of the other breakpoint, which fails:
(gdb) continue
Continuing.

When running tests in parallel, each test puts its generated files in a
different directory, under "outputs". I think it would be nice if it
was always the case, as it would isolate the test cases a bit more. An
artifact created by a test wouldn't get overwritten by another test.
Also, it makes it easier to clean up. A lot of executables are left all
over the place because their names do not appear in gdb.*/Makefile. If
everything is in "outputs", then we just have to delete that directory
(which we already do).
At the same time it makes the gdb.foo directories and their Makefiles
useless in the build directory, since they are pretty much only used for
cleaning.

While testing the following patch,
[PATCH] Always organize test artifacts in a directory hierarchy
https://sourceware.org/ml/gdb-patches/2016-01/msg00133.html
I noticed that it broke Ada testing. This lead me to think that
parallel testing when building in-tree didn't work previously in Ada.
It is confirmed by this test:
$ make check TESTS="gdb.ada/fun_addr.exp" -j 2
...
Running ./gdb.ada/fun_addr.exp ...
FAIL: gdb.ada/fun_addr.exp: compilation foo.adb
...
This patch fixes in-tree parallel testing for Ada, and consequently
serial and parallel testing when the aforementioned patch is applied.
The problem originates from the fact that Ada support code cd's to the
builddir before compiling. In itself it's not a problem, it allows to
place intermediate auto-generated files in that directory. The Ada
compilation refers to the source file, which is in another directory,
only by its base name (e.g. foo.adb). In serial mode, that worked
because builddir was the same as the source directory (e.g.
gdb.ada/fun_addr/). In an out-of-tree build, it works because the
source directory is added as an include directory (note: this is not the
same $srcdir as autoconf's):
set srcdir [file dirname $source]
additional_flags=-I$srcdir
which becomes:
additional_flags=-I/home/emaisin/build/binutils-gdb/gdb/testsuite/gdb.ada/fun_addr
However, when building in-tree, srcdir is relative: ./gdb.ada/fun_addr.
When using parallel or always-in-outputs-directory mode, we are cd'ed in
the outputs directory. So -I$srcdir is relative to the current
directory, which is wrong.
To fix it, I made the TCL variable srcdir (set in site.exp, from which
everything else is derived) always absolute. It is done by assigning
autoconf's abs_srcdir instead of autoconf's srcdir. This way -I$srcdir
will always be good, regardless of where we cd'ed to. A small apparent
change is that when running tests, DejaGnu will say:
Running /tmp/binutils-gdb/gdb/testsuite/gdb.ada/fun_addr.exp ...
instead of
Running ./gdb.ada/fun_addr.exp ...
I hope it's not too much of an annoyance. I think that it should make
the testsuite a tiny bit more robust against other bugs of the same
class.
Regtested in & out of tree, only with native target.

On x32, a pc-relative reference to an undef weak symbol (value 0)
with a negative addend (typically -4) generates a spurious overflow
error because Symbol_value::value() returns a 32-bit negative number
as an unsigned number, which gets zero-extended before subtracting
the PC value. This patch fixes the problem by special-casing the
negative addend, and adding it to the value after widening it to
64 bits. Symbol_value::value() does not need the addend if it's
negative, since it is only important when processing section
symbols for merge sections, where a positive addend provides the
input section offset of the merged constant.

I started removing that parameter. That allows removing a good chunk of

struct cpstack, cppush and cppop were only used fo that mechanism, so
they can be removed as well.

In order to get around the optimizer and newer compiler warnings
about shift counts, the overflow checking code had resorted to
some messy shifting, and with the never-before-seen instantiations
of the template functions, we were still running afoul of the
compiler checks.
This patch replaces those messy shift sequences with a simple
class template that provides the min and max limits for any
bit size up to 64, with a specialization for 64 that prevents
the compiler from complaining.
