the test script invokes ldd (on host) for the target libraries, which
is wrong. ldd can't be cross because it invokes dynamic linker with
LD_TRACE_LOADED_OBJECTS and gets the dependent libraries. My first
reaction to this problem is to execute ld.so on the target (like
remote_exec target). When I start to hack proc build_executable_own_libs,
I find it has assumptions here and there that the native testing is
performed. Then I check the callers of build_executable_own_libs,
and they are all skipped if isnative is false. It is reasonable to do
the same in dlopen-libpthread.exp too.

Gold doesn't handle relocations against the section symbol for a TLS

to the TLS segment, it uses the address of the actual section. This
patch checks for section symbols for TLS sections, and treats them

The plugin API doesn't provide a way for the claimed file handler to
identify a TLS symbol, so when adding a common TLS symbol, gold
mistakenly places the symbol in the non-TLS commons list, and does
not override it when we see the replacement symbol that is marked
as TLS. Consequently, we allocate the TLS common symbol as a regular
common, and, if it's the only TLS in the program, we'll give an
internal error because we haven't allocated a TLS segment.
This patch fixes the problem by removing an exclusion where common
symbols would not override the placeholder symbols, but checking to
see if the size needs adjusting (the original reason for the exclusion).
Furthermore, we need to avoid putting placeholder symbols in the common
list, and wait until we see a real common symbol with a type we can
trust.

* resolve.cc (Symbol_table::resolve): Override common placeholder

What matters for this function, is whether the user requested a

internal step for some reason.

Therefore, the check for singlestep_breakpoints_inserted_p is actually
incorrect, and we end up applying schedlock more often on sss targets
than on non-sss targets.

(gdb) FAIL: gdb.threads/sigstep-threads.exp: continue
the cause is that GDBserver doesn't cancel the breakpoint if the stop
signal is SIGILL. The kernel used here is a little old, 2.6.x, and
doesn't translate SIGILL to SIGTRAP when program hits breakpoint
instruction (which is an illegal instruction actually). GDB and
GDBserver can translate SIGILL to SIGTRAP under certain circumstance,
so it is not a problem here. See gdbserver/linux-low.c:linux_wait_1
/* If this event was not handled before, and is not a SIGTRAP, we
report it. SIGILL and SIGSEGV are also treated as traps in case
a breakpoint is inserted at the current PC. If this target does
not support internal breakpoints at all, we also report the
SIGTRAP without further processing; it's of no concern to us. */

&& (*the_low_target.breakpoint_at) (event_child->stop_pc))));
However, SIGILL and SIGSEGV is not considered when cancelling
breakpoint, which causes the fail above. That is, when GDB is doing
software single step on address ADDR, both thread A and thread B hits the
software single step breakpoint, and get SIGILL. GDB selects the event
from thread A, removes the software single step breakpoint, and resume
the program. The event (SIGILL) from thread B is reported to GDB, but
GDB doesn't regard this SIGILL as SIGTRAP, because the breakpoint on
address ADDR was removed, so GDB reports "Program received signal
SIGILL".
The patch is to allow calling cancel_breakpoint if the signal is
SIGILL and SIGSEGV. This patch fixes the fail above. Likewise, event
lwp selection should honour SIGILL and SIGSEGV too.

By default, GDB removes all breakpoints from the target when the
target stops and the prompt is given back to the user. This is useful
in case GDB crashes while the user is interacting, as otherwise,
there's a higher chance breakpoints would be left planted on the
target.
But, as long as any thread is running free, we need to make sure to
keep breakpoints inserted, lest a thread misses a breakpoint. With
that in mind, in preparation for non-stop mode, we added a "breakpoint
always-inserted on" mode. This traded off the extra crash protection
for never having threads miss breakpoints, and in addition is more
efficient if there's a ton of breakpoints to remove/insert at each
user command (e.g., at each "step").
When we added non-stop mode, and for a period, we required users to
manually set "always-inserted on" when they enabled non-stop mode, as
otherwise GDB removes all breakpoints from the target as soon as any
thread stops, which means the other threads still running will miss
breakpoints. The test added by this patch exercises this.
That soon revealed a nuisance, and so later we added an extra
"breakpoint always-inserted auto" mode, that made GDB behave like
"always-inserted on" when non-stop was enabled, and "always-inserted
off" when non-stop was disabled. "auto" was made the default at the
same time.
In hindsight, this "auto" setting was unnecessary, and not the ideal
solution. Non-stop mode does depends on breakpoints always-inserted
mode, but only as long as any thread is running. If no thread is
running, no breakpoint can be missed. The same is true for all-stop
too. E.g., if, in all-stop mode, and the user does:
(gdb) c&
(gdb) b foo
That breakpoint at "foo" should be inserted immediately, but it
currently isn't -- currently it'll end up inserted only if the target
happens to trip on some event, and is re-resumed, e.g., an internal
breakpoint triggers that doesn't cause a user-visible stop, and so we
end up in keep_going calling insert_breakpoints. The test added by
this patch also covers this.
IOW, no matter whether in non-stop or all-stop, if the target fully
stops, we can remove breakpoints. And no matter whether in all-stop
or non-stop, if any thread is running in the target, then we need
breakpoints to be immediately inserted. And then, if the target has
global breakpoints, we need to keep breakpoints even when the target
is stopped.
So with that in mind, and aiming at reducing all-stop vs non-stop
differences for all-stop-on-stop-of-non-stop, this patch fixes
"breakpoint always-inserted off" to not remove breakpoints from the
target until it fully stops, and then removes the "auto" setting as
unnecessary. I propose removing it straight away rather than keeping
it as an alias, unless someone complains they have scripts that need
it and that can't adjust.
Tested on x86_64 Fedora 20.

convenience functions intended to hide the ">> 16" used to extract the
