Building in C++ mode issues ~40 warnings like this:
../../src/gdb/linux-nat.c: In function ‘int linux_handle_extended_wait(lwp_info*, int, int)’:
../../src/gdb/linux-nat.c:2016:51: warning: invalid conversion from ‘int’ to ‘__ptrace_request’ [-fpermissive]
ptrace (PTRACE_GETEVENTMSG, pid, 0, &new_pid);
The issue is that in glibc, ptrace's first parameter is an enum.
That's not a problem if we pick the PTRACE_XXX requests from
sys/ptrace.h, as those will be values of the corresponding enum.
However, we have fallback definitions for PTRACE_XXX symbols when the
system headers miss them (such as PTRACE_GETEVENTMSG above), and those
are plain integer constants. E.g., nat/linux-ptrace.h:
#define PTRACE_GETEVENTMSG 0x4201
One idea would be to fix this by defining those fallbacks like:
-#define PTRACE_GETEVENTMSG 0x4201
+#define PTRACE_GETEVENTMSG ((enum __ptrace_request) 0x4201)
However, while glibc's ptrace uses enum __ptrace_request for first
parameter:
extern long int ptrace (enum __ptrace_request __request, ...) __THROW;
other libc's, like e.g., Android's bionic do not -- in that case, the
first parameter is int:
long ptrace(int request, pid_t pid, void * addr, void * data);
So the fix I came up is to make configure/ptrace.m4 also detect the
type of the ptrace's first parameter and defin PTRACE_TYPE_ARG1, as
already does the for parameters 3-4, and then simply wrap ptrace with
a macro that casts the first argument to the detected type. (I'm
leaving adding a nicer wrapper for when we drop building in C).
While this adds the wrapper, GNU/Linux files won't use it until the
next patch, which makes all native GNU/Linux files include
gdb_ptrace.h.

The following patch...

... added a number of declarations which do not compile when cross-
compiling GDBserver on arm-android. The problem comes from type
prfpregset_t not being declared:
/[...]/gdbserver/gdb_proc_service.h:98:47:
error: unknown type name 'prfpregset_t'
After searching through the includes of the install we have,
I could not find that type being declared anywhere. So I did
the same as for prgregset_t, and created the typedef if the
type isn't declared.

This new option, disabled by default for now, allows specifying
whether to build GDB, GDBserver, and friends with a C++ (98/03)
compiler.
The name of the switch should be familiar to those who followed GCC's
own C++ conversion process.
. Adding -fpermissive to COMPILER in C++ mode (see the new
build-with-cxx.m4 file) makes errors like these be warnings instead:
gdb/infrun.c:6597:1: error: initializing argument 1 of ‘void sig_print_info(gdb_signal)’ [-fpermissive]
sig_print_info (enum gdb_signal oursig)
^
gdb/infrun.c: In function ‘void do_restore_infcall_suspend_state_cleanup(void*)’:
gdb/infrun.c:7164:39: error: invalid conversion from ‘void*’ to ‘infcall_suspend_state*’ [-fpermissive]
restore_infcall_suspend_state (state);
^
so that the compiler carries on compiling the file. -Werror still
catches the warnings, so nothing is lost, only our lifes are made
easier by concentrating on getting other more important things out of
the way first.
There's no way to quiet those warnings. Until they're all fixed, when
building in C++ mode, -Werror is disabled by default.
. Adding -Wno-narrowing suppresses thousands of instances of this warning:
gdb/arm-linux-tdep.c:439:1: error: narrowing conversion of ‘-1’ from ‘int’ to ‘ULONGEST {aka long unsigned int}’ inside { } is ill-formed in C++11 [-Werror=narrowing]
gdb/arm-linux-tdep.c:439:1: error: narrowing conversion of ‘-1l’ from ‘LONGEST {aka long int}’ to ‘ULONGEST {aka long unsigned int}’ inside { } is ill-formed in C++11 [-Werror=narrowing]
gdb/arm-linux-tdep.c:450:1: error: narrowing conversion of ‘-1’ from ‘int’ to ‘ULONGEST {aka long unsigned int}’ inside { } is ill-formed in C++11 [-Werror=narrowing]
We can defer handling those until we target C++11.
. Adding -Wno-sign-compare suppresses thousands of instances of this warning:
gdb/linux-record.c:1763:32: warning: comparison between signed and unsigned integer expressions [-Wsign-compare]
if (tmpulongest == tdep->fcntl_F_GETLK64)
^
. Adding -Wno-write-strings suppresses thousands of instances of this warning:
gdb/mi/mi-cmd-var.c: In function ‘void mi_cmd_var_show_attributes(char*, char**, int)’:
gdb/mi/mi-cmd-var.c:514:12: warning: deprecated conversion from string constant to ‘char*’ [-Wwrite-strings]
attstr = "editable";
^
gdb/mi/mi-cmd-var.c:516:12: warning: deprecated conversion from string constant to ‘char*’ [-Wwrite-strings]
attstr = "noneditable";
^
For now, it's best to hide these warnings from view until we're
'-fpermissive'-clean, and can thus start building with -Werror.
The C compiler has always managed to build working GDBs with these
issues in the code, so a C++ compiler should too.

Converting GDB to be a C++ program, I stumbled on 'basename' issues,
like:
src/gdb/../include/ansidecl.h:169:64: error: new declaration ‘char* basename(const char*)’
/usr/include/string.h:597:26: error: ambiguates old declaration ‘const char* basename(const char*)’
which I believe led to this bit in gold's configure.ac:
dnl We have to check these in C, not C++, because autoconf generates
dnl tests which have no type information, and current glibc provides
dnl multiple declarations of functions like basename when compiling
dnl with C++.
AC_CHECK_DECLS([basename, ffs, asprintf, vasprintf, snprintf, vsnprintf, strverscmp])
These checks IIUC intend to generate all the HAVE_DECL_FOO symbols
that libiberty.h and ansidecl.h check.
GDB is missing these checks currently, which results in the conflict
shown above.
This adds an m4 file that both GDB and GDBserver's configury use to
pull in the autoconf checks that libiberty clients needs done in order
to use these libiberty.h/ansidecl.h.

This patch is to teach both GDB and GDBServer to detect 64-bit inferior
correctly. We find a problem that GDBServer is unable to detect on a
e5500 core processor. Current GDBServer assumes that MSR is a 64-bit
register, but MSR is a 32-bit register in Book III-E. This patch is
to fix this problem by checking the right bit in MSR, in order to handle
both Book III-S and Book III-E. In order to detect Book III-S and
Book III-E, we check the PPC_FEATURE_BOOKE from the host's HWCAP (by
getauxval on glibc >= 2.16. If getauxval doesn't exist, we implement
the fallback by parsing /proc/self/auxv), because it should an invariant
on the same machine cross different processes.
In order to share code, I add nat/ppc-linux.c for both GDB and
GDBserver side.

This patch mostly aims at fixing a GDB build failure on 32bit Solaris
systems (Sparc and x86), due to a recent gnulib update adding the
readlink module. But it might also fix related issues when configuring
with --disable-largefile.
A side-effect of the gnulib readlink module addition is that it caused
largefile support to be added as well, and in particular
gnulib/import/m4/largefile.m4 introduced the following new #define in
gnulib's config.in:
| +/* Number of bits in a file offset, on hosts where this is settable. */
| +#undef _FILE_OFFSET_BITS
When defined to 64, it triggers an issue with procfs.h while trying
to build sparc-sol2-nat.c:
| #if !defined(_LP64) && _FILE_OFFSET_BITS == 64
| #error "Cannot use procfs in the large file compilation environment"
| #endif
As it turns out, this is a fairly familiar problem, and one of
the reasons behind ACX_LARGEFILE having been created. In that macro,
we have some code which disables largefile support on solaris hosts:
| sparc-*-solaris*|i[3-7]86-*-solaris*)
| changequote([,])dnl
| # On native 32bit sparc and ia32 solaris, large-file and procfs support
| # are mutually exclusive; and without procfs support, the bfd/ elf module
| # cannot provide certain routines such as elfcore_write_prpsinfo
| # or elfcore_write_prstatus. So unless the user explicitly requested
| # large-file support through the --enable-largefile switch, disable
| # large-file support in favor of procfs support.
| test "${target}" = "${host}" -a "x$plugins" = xno \
| && : ${enable_largefile="no"}
| ;;
But gnulib ignores this fact, and so tries to determine how to
enable large-file support irrespective of whether we want it or not.
This patch fixes the issue by passing --disable-largefile to gnulib's
configure when large-file support in GDB is disabled. This is done
by first enhancing ACX_CONFIGURE_DIR to allow us to pass extra
arguments to be passed to the configure command, and then by modifying
GDB's configure to pass --disable-largefile if large-file support
is disabled.
gdb/ChangeLog:
* acx_configure_dir.m4 (ACX_CONFIGURE_DIR): Add support for
new "EXTRA-ARGS" parameter.
* configure.ac: If large-file support is disabled in GDB,
pass --disable-largefile to ACX_CONFIGURE_DIR call for "gnulib".

gdb/gdbserver/ChangeLog:

pass --disable-largefile to ACX_CONFIGURE_DIR call for "gnulib".
* configure: Regenerate.
Tested by rebuilding on sparc-solaris and x86_64-linux (with gdbserver).
This fixes the build failure on sparc-solaris. I also verified in
gnulib's config.log file that we pass --disable-largefile in the solaris
case, while we do not in the GNU/Linux case.
Since readlink module is imported, we can use it unconditionally.

The recent libiberty patch caused issues when cross building
gdbserver. The Makefile ends invoking the build machine's "ar"
instead of the --host version:
ar ./libiberty.a \
./regex.o (...)
ar: illegal option -- .
Usage: ar [emulation options] [-]{dmpqrstx}[abcfilNoPsSuvV] [member-name] [count] archive-file file...
ar -M [<mri-script]
The libiberty configure script does probe for and finds an appropriate
AR. However, gdbserver's configure does not probe for AR and
overrides the AR used in the libiberty build by explicitly passing AR
to the sub-builds.

The goal of this patch is to provide an easy way to make
--disable-werror the default when building binutils, or the parts
of binutils that need to get built when building GDB. In development
mode, we want to continue making -Werror the default with GCC.
But, when making releases, I think we want to make it as easy as
possible for regular users to successfully build from sources.
GDB already has this kind of feature to turn -Werror as well as
the use of the libmcheck library. As GDB Release Manager, I take
advantage of it to turn those off after having cut the branch.
I'd like to be able to do the same for the binutils bits. And
perhaps Tristan will want to do the same for his releases too
(not sure, binutils builders might be a little savvier than GDB
builders).
This patch introduces a new file, called development.sh, which
just sets a variable called $development. In our development branches
(Eg. "master"), it's set to true. But setting it to false would allow
us to change the default behavior of various development-related
features to be turned off; in this case, it turns off the use of
-Werror by default (use --enable-werror to turn it back on).

Tested on x86_64-linux by building two ways: One with DEVELOPMENT
set to true, and one with DEVELOPMENT set to false. In the first
case, I could see the use of -Werror, while it disappeared in
the second case.
On GDB release branches, we change $development in gdb/development.sh
to false, in order to build the GDB release without -Werror by default,
thus avoiding harmless compiler warnings from breaking the build of
someone who's only interested in building GDB rather than working
on it.
This patch implements the same strategy for gdbserver, using the exact
same method.
gdb/gdbserver/ChangeLog:
* configure.ac: Only use -Werror by default when DEVELOPMENT
is true.
* configure: Regenerate.
Tested on x86_64-linux, by rebuilding GDBserver first with development
set to true, and then doing it again with development set to false.
Werror was used in the first case, but not in the second.

Now that we are using the gnulib string.h module, we don't need to
check for string.h or strings.h. This removes the last few checks
from the source and from the configure scripts.

It has bothered me for a while that files in common/ use macros
defined via autoconf checks, but rely on each configure.ac doing the
proper checks independently.
This patch introduces common/common.m4 which consolidates the checks
assumed by code in common.
The rule I propose is that if something is needed or used by common,
it should be checked for by common.m4. However, if the check is also
needed by gdb or gdbserver, then it should be duplicated there.
Built and regtested on x86-64 Fedora 18 (though this is hardly the
most strenuous case) and using the Fedora 18 mingw cross compilers. I
also examined the config.in diffs to ensure that symbols did not go
missing.

It is possible to have a build of glibc where SYS_perf_event_open is not
defined (because when the glibc was compiled, the syscall did not exist),
but have newer kernel headers installed so that linux/perf_event.h is
available. In this setup, you get a build failure:
./common/linux-btrace.c: In function 'kernel_supports_btrace':
./common/linux-btrace.c:316:23: error: 'SYS_perf_event_open' undeclared (first use in this function)
Update the ifdef check to also see if the syscall is available.

This factors --enable-libmcheck related bits from GDB's configure.ac
and makes GDBserver use them too. Specifically, the 'development'
global is moved to a separate script to it can be sourced by both GDB
and GDBserver, and the --enable-libmcheck/--disable-libmcheck bits
proper are moved to a new m4 file.
I started out by defining 'development' in the m4 file, but in the end
decided against it, as a separate script has the advantage that
changing it in release branches does not require regenerating
configure, unlike today.
I had also started out by making the new GDB_AC_LIBMCHECK itself
handle the yes/no default fallback depending on release/developement,
but since I had split out 'development' to a separate script, and, GDB
needs the python checks anyway (hence we'd need to do the python
checks in gdb's configure.ac, and pass in a 'default lmcheck yes/no'
parameter to GDB_AC_LIBMCHECK anyway), I ended up keeping
GDB_AC_LIBMCHECK isolated from the 'development' global. IOW, it's
the caller's business to handle it.
Tested on x86_64 Fedora 17. Built GDB and GDBserver with and without
--enable-libmcheck, and observed --enable-libmcheck overrides the
disablement of -lmcheck caused by python supporting threads, and that
GDBserver links with -lmcheck when expected. Also observed that
changing the 'development' global, and issuing "make" triggers a
relink, and '-lmcheck' is included or not from the link accordingly.

With gnulib's unistd module, we can assume unistd.h is always present, and that
STDIN_FILENO, STDOUT_FILENO, STDERR_FILENO are always defined.

When directly invoking gdb/gdbserver/configure && make, the build will
fail because the $(host_alias) is empty and thus create-version.sh does
not get enough parameters.
