This patch enables software breakpoints via GDB's Z0 packets on ARM.

gdb/gdbserver/ChangeLog:
* linux-arm-low.c (arm_supports_z_point_type): Add software
breakpoint support.
Before arm_sw_breakpoint_from_kind would use an #ifdef to return the right
arm_breakpoint from the abi or eabi breakpoint type.
arm_breakpoint_at would also check for the arm_breakpoint ||
arm_eabi_breakpoint.
Thus the selected arm_breakpoint would be what arm_sw_breakpoint_from_kind
returned and arm_breakpoint was arm_abi_breakpoint.
This patch makes it more clear by naming those for what they are : 2 separate
entities: arm_abi_breakpoint and arm_eabi_breakpoint and set the current used
one as arm_breakpoint.
This allows a cleaner arm_sw_breakpoint_from_kind as it just returns
arm_breakpoint rather than having the #ifdef in that function.
Any other reference to the arm_breakpoint can now also be clear of #ifdefs...

* linux-arm-low.c: Refactor breakpoint definitions.
(arm_breakpoint_at): Adjust for arm_abi_breakpoint.
(arm_sw_breakpoint_from_kind): Adjust for arm_breakpoint.
ARM can have multiple breakpoint types based on the instruction set
it's currently in: arm, thumb or thumb2.
GDBServer needs to know what breakpoint is to be inserted at location
when inserting a breakpoint.
This is handled by the breakpoint_kind_from_pc and sw_breakpoint_from_kind
target ops introduced in a previous patch, this patch adds the
arm_breakpoint_kind_from_pc and arm_sw_breakpoint_from_kind implementation so
that the proper breakpoint type is returned based on the pc.
Also in order to share some code with GDB a new file called arm.c have been
introduced in arch/.
While this file does not contain much yet future patches will add more
to it thus the inclusion at this stage.

There's two ways to set breakpoints in GDBServer.
- GDBServer setting its own breakpoints, through API set_breakpoint_at.
- GDBServer setting breakpoints according to the information in Z
packets, through API set_gdb_breakpoint.
Before this patch the breakpoint kinds were a concept unique to GDB and Z
packets, as GDBServer never had to set different kinds of breakpoint on its
own.
This patch teaches GDBServer to handle breakpoint kinds for its own
breakpoints. It generalizes the breakpoint kind as per Z packets to
represent different kinds of breakpoints directly set by GDBServer also.
GDBServer now querys breakpoint_kind_from_pc to know what breakpoint kind to
set on its own.
As the kind is now a differentiating factor equivalent to size for the
breakpoint struct and that it's size can be queried using
sw_breakpoint_from_kind, the size field has been replaced with the kind field.
All references to size are now replaced by kind or a call to bp_size that wraps
sw_breakpoing_from_kind and returns the size of the breakpoint in memory.
To fetch the software breakpoint data bp_opcode is called and wraps the
sw_breakpoint_from_kind call.

This patch is in preparation for software breakpoints on ARM linux. It
refactors breakpoint and breakpoint_len into breakpoint_kind_from_pc and
sw_breakpoint_from kind to prepare the case where we have multiple types of
breakpoints.
Kind is the type of breakpoint (hardware or software) to be inserted, usually it
is the lenght of the software breakpoint but can be something else depending on
the target.
This patch introduces the linux_target_ops breakpoint_kind_from_pc and
sw_breakpoint_from_kind.
breakpoint_kind_from_pc returns the breakpoint kind and adjusts the PC to the
real memory location in case a flag was present in the PC. E.g the instruction
mode on ARM.
sw_breakpoint_from_kind returns the software breakpoint for this kind as a
string of bytes, the length of the breakpoint is adjusted for the breakpoint's
size in memory.
For targets that have only one kind of breakpoint, the default value 0 is
returned by linux_breakpoint_kind_from_pc so that not all targets need to
implement the breakpoint_kind_from_pc operation.

Nowadays, in the range-stepping tests, we check not only the number of
vCont;r packets but also the number of vCont;s packets, because we think
the remote target which can do range stepping must support single step.
However, if we turn displaced stepping on, the remote target (GDBserver)
can do range stepping, and support single step, but GDB may decide to
resume instructions in the scratchpad rather than single step them one
by one for displaced stepping. For example, when aarch64 GDB debugs
arm linux program with aarch64 GDBserver, GDBserver supports both range
stepping and single step, but GDB (with the gdbarch for arm-linux)
decides resume instructions in the scratchpad, so in the RSP traffic,
there is no vCont;s packet at all, and some range-stepping.exp tests
fail,
FAIL: gdb.base/range-stepping.exp: multi insns: next: vCont;s=1 vCont;r=1

The existing logic was simply to flip syscall entry/return state when a
syscall trap was seen, and even then only with active 'catch syscall'.
That can get out of sync if 'catch syscall' is toggled at odd times.
This patch updates the entry/return state for all syscall traps,
regardless of catching state, and also updates known syscall state for
other kinds of traps. Almost all PTRACE_EVENT stops are delivered from
the middle of a syscall, so this can act like an entry. Every other
kind of ptrace stop is only delivered outside of syscall event pairs, so
marking them ignored ensures the next syscall trap looks like an entry.
Three new test scenarios are added to catch-syscall.exp:
- Disable 'catch syscall' from an entry to deliberately miss the return
event, then re-enable to make sure a new entry is recognized.
- Enable 'catch syscall' for the first time from a vfork event, which is
a PTRACE_EVENT_VFORK in the middle of the syscall. Make sure the next
syscall event is recognized as the return.
- Make sure entry and return are recognized for an ENOSYS syscall. This
is to defeat a common x86 hack that uses the pre-filled ENOSYS return
value as a sign of being on the entry side.

Nowadays, both aarch64 GDB and linux kernel assumes that address for
setting breakpoint should be 4-byte aligned. However that is not true
after we support multi-arch, because thumb instruction can be at 2-byte
aligned address. Patch http://lists.infradead.org/pipermail/linux-arm-kernel/2015-October/375141.html
to linux kernel is to teach kernel to handle 2-byte aligned address for
HW breakpoint, while this patch is to teach aarch64 GDB handle 2-byte
aligned address.
First of all, we call gdbarch_breakpoint_from_pc to get the instruction
length rather than using hard-coded 4. Secondly, in GDBserver, we set
length back to 2 if it is 3, because GDB encode 3 in it to indicate it
is a 32-bit thumb breakpoint. Then we relax the address alignment
check from 4-byte aligned to 2-byte aligned.
This patch enables some tests (such as gdb.base/break-idempotent.exp,
gdb.base/cond-eval-mode.exp, gdb.base/watchpoint-reuse-slot.exp,) and
fixes many fails (such as gdb.base/hbreak2.exp) when the program is
compiled in thumb mode on aarch64.

is the last patch of multi-arch work.

string comparisons. Revert 2008-07-08 host_triplet checks.
Perform non-run tests when we can build executable.
(strip_executable, strip_executable_with_saving_a_symbol): Move
run test later. Take extra param on whether to perform run test.
Update callers.
(keep_debug_symbols_and_test_copy): Delete unused vars.
Run the test for more than just ELF. Shows that objcopy --extract-symbol
isn't working on PE, mips, mmix and some aout targets.
* config/default.exp (size): New global.
* ld-elf/extract-symbol-1.s,
* ld-elf/extract-symbol-1.ld,
* ld-elf/extract-symbol-1sec.d,
* ld-elf/extract-symbol-1sym.d: Delete.
* ld-scripts/script.exp (extract_symbol_test): New.
Calling bfd_copy_private_bfd_data is necessary to copy ELF file header
info.
binutils/
* objcopy.c (copy_object): Don't omit bfd_copy_private_bfd_data
call when extract_symbol.
bfd/
* elf32-v850.c (v850_elf_copy_private_bfd_data): Remove assertion
that input and output .note.renesas sections are same size.
Instead, only copy input to output if they are.
