The previous commit to fix PR gold/18886 converted STT_IFUNC
to STT_FUNC when resolving to a symbol defined in a shared library.
This leads to an internal error if the shared library symbol is
seen first, as we do not convert the symbol at all.
We need to override the STT_IFUNC in add_from_dynobj() instead of
in override_base().

Replace the options --warn-orphan and --no-warn-orphan with a single
option --orphan-handling=MODE, where mode can be place, warn, error, and
discard.
Mode 'place' is the default, and is the current behaviour, placing the
orphan section into a suitable output section.
Mode 'warn' is the same as '--warn-orphan'. The orphan is also placed
using the same algorithm as for 'place'.
Mode 'error' is the same as '--warn-orphan' and '--fatal-warnings'.
Mode 'discard' assigns all output sections to the /DISCARD/ section.

Before this change, trying to call an overloaded function with at least
one character literal in argument would fail. For instance, given these
two functions:
function F (C : Character) return Integer is
begin
return Character'Pos (C);
end F;
function F (I : Integer) return Integer is
begin
return -I;
end F;
We would get the following GDB session:
(gdb) p f('A')
$1 = -65
(gdb) p f(1)
$1 = -1
This is wrong because the first call should select the first F function
and thus return 65.
The root problem is that ada-lang.c:ada_language_arch_info stores in
string_char_type a type whose code is TYPE_CODE_INT instead of
TYPE_CODE_CHAR. As a result, all parsed character literals are turned
into integer values and during overload matching, the TYPE_CODE_CHAR
formal rejects the TYPE_CODE_INT actual.
This change turns string_char_type into a true TYPE_CODE_CHAR type in
ada-lang.c so that we have instead the expected:
(gdb) p f('A')
$1 = 65

Nowadays, if user requests HW watchpoint to monitor a large memory area
or unaligned area, aarch64 GDB will split into multiple aligned areas,
and use multiple debugging registers to watch them. However, the
registers are not updated in a transaction way. GDBserver doesn't revert
updates in previous iterations if some debugging registers fail to update
due to some reason, like no free debugging registers available, in the
latter iteration. For example, if we have a char buf[34], and watch buf
in gdb,
(gdb) watch buf
Hardware watchpoint 2: buf
(gdb) c
Continuing.

four debugging registers can not monitor 34-byte long area, so the last
iteration of updating debugging register state fails but previous
iterations succeed. This makes GDB think no HW watchpoint is inserted
but some debugging registers are used.
This problem was exposed by "watch buf" gdb.base/watchpoint.exp with
aarch64 GDBserver debugging arm 32-bit program. The buf is 30-byte long
but 4-byte aligned, and four debugging registers can't cover 34-byte
(extend 4 bytes to be 8-byte aligned) area. However, this problem
does exist on non-multi-arch debugging scenario as well.
This patch moves code in aarch64_linux_region_ok_for_hw_watchpoint to
aarch64_linux_region_ok_for_watchpoint in nat/aarch64-linux-hw-point.c.
Then, checks with aarch64_linux_region_ok_for_watchpoint, like what we
are doing in GDB. If the region is OK, call aarch64_handle_watchpoint.
Regression tested on aarch64 with both 64-bit program and 32-bit
program. Some fails in gdb.base/watchpoint.exp are fixed.

Since the type whose name is being set is now being allocated on the
gdbarch obstack, we should allocate its TYPE_NAME on the obstack too.

Following commit 8f57eec2fb ("Use gdbarch obstack to allocate types in

copy_type_recursive is allocated using malloc. Because the function
uses alloc_type_arch internally, the new type is now allocated on the
gdbarch associated with the type, and is thus owned by that gdbarch.

BuildBot e-mailed me to let me know that my last commit broke GDB on
RHEL-7.1 s390x. On solib-svr4.c:svr4_handle_solib_event, 'val' now
needs to be initialized as NULL because it is inside a TRY..CATCH
block. This patch does that. Pushed as obvious.
gdb/ChangeLog:
2015-09-01 Sergio Durigan Junior <sergiodj@redhat.com>
* solib-svr4.c (svr4_handle_solib_event): Initialize 'val' as NULL
This patch is intended to make the interaction between the
probes-based dynamic linker interface and the SystemTap SDT probe code
on GDB more robust. It does that by wrapping the calls to the probe
API with TRY...CATCH'es, so that any exception thrown will be caught
and handled properly.
The idea for this patch came from
<https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1196181>, which is a bug
initially filed against Fedora GDB (but now under Fedora GLIBC). This
bug happens on armhfp (although it could happen on other targets as
well), and is triggered because GCC generates a strange argument for
one of the probes used by GDB in the dynamic linker interface. As can
be seen in the bug, this argument is "-4@.L1052".
I don't want to discuss the reasons for this argument to be there
(this discussion belongs to the bug, or to another thread), but GDB
could definitely do a better error handling here. Currently, one sees
the following message when there is an error in the probes-based
dynamic linker interface:
(gdb) run
Starting program: /bin/inferior
warning: Probes-based dynamic linker interface failed.
Reverting to original interface.
Cannot parse expression `.L976 4@r4'.
(gdb)
Which means that one needs to explicitly issue a "continue" command to
make GDB continue running the inferior, even though this error is not
fatal and GDB will fallback to the old interface automatically.
This is where this patch helps: it makes GDB still print the necessary
warnings or error messages, but it *also* does not stop the inferior
unnecessarily.
I have tested this patch on the systems where this error happens, but
I could not come up with a way to create a testcase for it.
Nevertheless, it should be straightforward to see that this patch does
improve the current situation.
gdb/ChangeLog:
2015-09-01 Sergio Durigan Junior <sergiodj@redhat.com>
* solib-svr4.c (solib_event_probe_action): Call
get_probe_argument_count using TRY...CATCH.
(svr4_handle_solib_event): Likewise, for evaluate_probe_argument.
This patch improves the error reporting when handling SystemTap SDT
probes. "Handling", in this case, mostly means "parsing".
On gdb/probe.h, only trivial changes on functions' comments in order
to explicitly mention that some of them can throw exceptions. This is
just to make the API a bit more clear.
On gdb/stap-probe.c, I have s/internal_error/error/ on two functions
that are responsible for parsing specific bits of the probes'
arguments: stap_get_opcode and stap_get_expected_argument_type. It is
not correct to call internal_error on such situations because it is
not really GDB's fault if the probes have malformed arguments. I also
improved the error reported on stap_get_expected_argument_type by also
including the probe name on it.
Aside from that, and perhaps most importantly, I added a check on
stap_get_arg to make sure that we don't try to extract an argument
from a probe that has no arguments. This check issues an
internal_error, because it really means that GDB is doing something it
shouldn't.
Although it can be considered almost trivial, and despite the fact
that I am the maintainer for this part of the code, I am posting this
patch for review. I will wait a few days, and if nobody has anything
to say, I will go ahead and push it.

Before this change, trying to complete an expression ending with an
ambiguous function name (i.e. for which there are multiple matches)
would display a menu with a prompt for the user to pick one. For
instance:
(gdb) p func<tab>Multiple matches for func
[0] cancel
[1] pack2.func at pack2.adb:5
[2] pack.func at pack.adb:5
>
This is not user friendly and actually triggered a segmentation fault
after the user did pick one. It is not clear whether the segmentation
fault needs a separate fix, but this is the only known case which
exhibits it at the moment, and this case must be fixed itself.
The problem lies in ada-lang.c (ada_resolve_function): when we got
multiple matches, we should not display the menu if we are in completion
mode. This patch adjusts the corresponding condition accordingly.

We use its PLT entry to initialize function pointer at run-time. If
there is no other usage for the PLT entry, we can generate run-time
function pointer relocations in read-write section, which can be
resolved by dynamic linker, to initialize function pointers. It avoids
the extra indirect branch overhead in PLT.

that case omit a useless addi r2,r2,0 insn. Also, change the get_r2off
error return from 0 to -1 since 0 is a valid return for ELFv2 -R objects.
* elf64-ppc.c (get_r2off): Return -1 on error.
(ppc_build_one_stub): Adjust for get_r2off change. Don't emit
addi r2,r2,0 on r2off stubs when the low 16-bit delta is zero.
(ppc_size_one_stub): Corresponding size changes for r2off stubs.
Add condition in test for -R objects.
Two organizational changes to the array of additional info kept for
sections.
1) Move group info into a per-group allocated struct, in preparation
for future changes that need per-group accounting.
2) Expand the array to include output sections, which simplifies
sizing and removes the need for a separate output section array.
* section.c (section_id): Make file scope.
(bfd_get_next_section_id): New function.
* elf64-ppc.c (struct map_stub): Remove toc_off field. Move decl.
(struct ppc_stub_hash_entry): Delete stub_sec and id_sec. Add
group. Update all uses.
(struct ppc_link_hash_table): Delete top_id, top_index, and
input_list. Add sec_info_arr_size. Rename stub_group to
sec_info, and make group info indirect. Update stub_group refs
throughout file.
(ppc_add_stub): Don't look for stub_sec on link_sec stub_group
entry.
(ppc_build_one_stub): Delete FIXME.
(ppc64_elf_setup_section_lists): Size htab->sec_info for all
sections, not just input sections. Don't create htab->input_list.
(ppc64_elf_next_input_section): Update to use sec_info union as
list pointer.
(PREV_SEC): Delete.
(group_sections): Pass "info" param rather than "htab". Iterate
over output sections rather than input_list. Use sec_info union
as list pointers. Alloc atruct map_stub, and return fail status.
* bfd-in2.h: Regenerate.
Small clean up to make a local variable const and remove a cast of NULL.
gdb/ChangeLog:
* tui/tui-data.c (tui_win_name): Make local variable const, remove
cast of NULL.
Use XSHAL_ABI value provided by xtensa-config.h to correctly initialize
xtensa_tdep.call_abi
This fixes calls to functions from GDB that otherwise fail with the
following assertion in call0 configuration:
gdb/regcache.c:602: internal-error: regcache_raw_read: Assertion
`regnum >= 0 && regnum < regcache->descr->nr_raw_registers' failed.

* xtensa-tdep.h (XTENSA_GDBARCH_TDEP_INSTANTIATE): Initialize
call_abi using XSHAL_ABI macro.
These int vars are really unsigned, so make them so.
* section.c (struct bfd_section): Make "id" and "index" unsigned.
* coff-rs6000.c (_bfd_xcoff_sizeof_headers): Adjust local var to suit.
* elf.c (elf_map_symbols): Likewise.
* elf64-ppc.c (sym_exists_at): Make "id" param unsigned.
(struct ppc_link_hash_table): Make "top_id" and "top_index" unsigned.
(ppc64_elf_setup_section_lists): Ditto for local vars.
* elf32-arm.c: Similarly to elf64-ppc.c.
* elf32-avr.c: Likewise.
* elf32-hppa.c: Likewise.
* elf32-m68hc1x.c: Likewise.
* elf32-metag.c: Likewise.
* elf32-nios2.c: Likewise.
* elfnn-aarch64.c: Likewise.
* simple.c (struct saved_offsets): Make "section_count" unsigned.
* bfd-in2.h: Regenerate.
Since the type whose name is being set is now being allocated on the
gdbarch obstack, we should allocate its TYPE_NAME on the obstack too.
This reduces the number of individual valgrind warnings for the command
"gdb gdb" from ~300 to ~150.
Tested on x86_64-unknown-linux-gnu.
gdb/ChangeLog:
* gdbarch.h (gdbarch_obstack_strdup): Declare.
* gdbarch.c (gdbarch_obstack_strdup): Define.
* gdbtypes.c (arch_type): Use it.
For the command "gdb gdb" valgrind currently reports 100s of individual
memory leaks, 500 of which originate solely out of the function
alloc_type_arch. This function allocates a "struct type" associated
with the given gdbarch using malloc but apparently the types allocated
by this function are never freed.
This patch fixes these leaks by making the function alloc_type_arch
allocate these gdbarch-associated types on the gdbarch obstack instead
of on the general heap. Since, from what I can tell, the types
allocated by this function are all fundamental "wired-in" types, such
types would not benefit from more granular memory management anyway.
They would likely live as long as the gdbarch is alive so allocating
them on the gdbarch obstack makes sense.
With this patch, the number of individual vargrind warnings emitted for
the command "gdb gdb" drops from ~800 to ~300.
Tested on x86_64-unknown-linux-gnu.
gdb/ChangeLog:
* gdbtypes.c (alloc_type_arch): Allocate the type on the given
gdbarch obstack instead of on the heap. Update commentary
accordingly.
