New bnds fields will be always present for x86 architecture.
Fixup for compatibility layer 32bits has to be fixed.
It was added the nat_siginfo to serving as intermediate step
between kernel provided siginfo and the fix up routine.
When executing compat_siginfo_from_siginfo or
compat_x32_siginfo_from_siginfo first the buffer read from the kernel are
converted into the nat_signfo for homogenization, then the fields of
nat_siginfo are use to set the compat and compat_x32 siginfo fields.
In other to make this conversion independent of the system where gdb
is compiled the most complete version of the siginfo, named as native
siginfo, is used internally as an intermediate step.
Conversion using nat_siginfo is exemplified below:
compat_siginfo_from_siginfo or compat_x32_siginfo_from_siginfo:
buffer (from the kernel) -> nat_siginfo -> 32 / X32 siginfo
(memcpy) (field by field)
siginfo_from_compat_x32_siginfo or siginfo_from_compat_siginfo:
32 / X32 siginfo -> nat_siginfo -> buffer (to the kernel)
(field by field) (memcpy)
Caveat: No support for MPX on x32.

The test gdb.mi/mi-vla-fortran.exp reveals an issue with the DWARF
generated by gfortran.
In the test a pointer variable 'pvla2' is created:
real, pointer :: pvla2 (:, :)
Initially this variable will be unassociated, so something like this:
l = associated(pvla2)
should return false.
In the test gdb stops at a point _before_ pvla2 is associated with
anything, and we then try to print pvla2, the expectation is that gdb
should reply <not associated>.
The problem is that the data the DWARF directs gdb to read (to identify
if the variable is associated or not) is not initialised until the first
time pvla2 is accessed.
As a result gdb ends up reading uninitialised memory, sometimes this
uninitialised memory indicates the variable is associated (when it's
not). This first mistake can lead to a cascade of errors, reading
uninitialised memory, with the result that gdb builds an invalid type to
associate with the variable pvla2.
In some cases, this invalid type can be very large, which when we try to
print pvla2 causes gdb to allocate a large amount of memory.
A recent commit added a new gdb variable 'max-value-size', which
prevents gdb from allocating values of extreme size. As a result
directly trying to print pvla2 will now now error rather than allocate a
large amount of memory.
However, some of the later tests create a varobj for pvla2, and then
ask for the children of that varobj to be displayed. In the case where
an invalid type has been computed for pvla2 then the number of children
can be wrong, and very big, in which case trying to display all of these
children can cause gdb to consume an excessive amount of memory.
This commit first detects if printing pvla2 triggers the max-value-size
error, if it does then we avoid all the follow on tests relating to the
unassociated pvla2, which avoids the second error printing the varobj
children.
gdb/testsuite/ChangeLog:
* gdb.mi/mi-vla-fortran.exp: Add XFAIL for accessing unassociated
pointer. Don't perform further tests on the unassociated pointer
if the first test fails.
For languages with dynamic types, an incorrect program, or uninitialised
variables within a program, could result in an incorrect, overly large
type being associated with a value. Currently, attempting to print such
a variable will result in gdb trying to allocate an overly large buffer.
If this large memory allocation fails then the result can be gdb either
terminating, or (due to memory contention) becoming unresponsive for the
user.
A new user visible variable in gdb helps guard against such problems,
two new commands are available:
set max-value-size
show max-value-size
The 'max-value-size' is the maximum size of memory in bytes that gdb
will allocate for the contents of a value. Any attempt to allocate a
value with a size greater than this will result in an error. The
initial default for this limit is set at 64k, this is based on a similar
limit that exists within the ada specific code.
It is possible for the user to set max-value-size to unlimited, in which
case the old behaviour is restored.

For a forthcoming patch, I need a "skip_to_colon" function. I noticed
there are two skip_to_semicolon (one in gdb and one in gdbserver). I
thought we could put it in common/, and generalize it for any character.
It turns out that the strchrnul function does exactly that. I imported
the corresponding module from gnulib, for those systems that do not have
it.
There are probably more places where this function can be used instead
of doing the work by hand (I am looking at
remote-utils.c::look_up_one_symbol).

the root cause of this problem in this case is about linespec and
symtab which produces additional incorrect location and a NULL is added to
bp_tgt->tcommands. I posted a patch
https://sourceware.org/ml/gdb-patches/2015-12/msg00321.html to fix it
in linespec (the fix causes regression), but GDB still shouldn't add
NULL into bp_tgt->tcommands. The logic of build_target_command_list
looks odd to me. If we get something wrong in parse_cmd_to_aexpr (it
returns NULL), we shouldn't continue, instead we should set flag
null_command_or_parse_error. This is what this patch does. In the
meantime, we find build_target_condition_list has the same problem, so
fix it too.
