This patch fixes the grammar, and tries to do it in a way that makes
the logic behind the current implementation a little clearer.

non-PIC references to __ehdr_start in pie and shared
Rather than hacking every backend to not discard dynamic relocations
against an undefined hidden __ehdr_start, make it appear to be defined
early. We want __ehdr_start hidden before size_dynamic_sections so
that it isn't put in .dynsym, but we do need the dynamic relocations
for a PIE or shared library with a non-PIC reference. Defining it
early is wrong if we don't actually define the symbol later to its
proper value. (In some cases we want to leave the symbol undefined,
for example, when the ELF header isn't loaded, and we don't have this
infomation available in before_allocation.)
* elf32-i386.c (elf_i386_allocate_dynrelocs): Revert the last
change.
* elf64-x86-64.c (elf_x86_64_allocate_dynrelocs): Likewise.

This last patch removes "partial" from the names of
expand_partial_symbol_names and map_partial_symbol_filenames.
It also renames expand_partial_symbol_names to match the
struct quick_symbol_functions "method" that it wraps:
expand_symtabs_matching.
This patch also adds two parameters to expand_symtabs_matching
so that it can fully wrap the underlying quick_symbol_functions method.
This makes it usable in more places.
I thought of having a cover function that still had the same
signature as the old expand_partial_symbol_names function,
but I couldn't think of a good name, and it wasn't clear it was
worth it anyway.

expand_partial_symbol_names. Update prototype.

This patch adds two typedefs:
expand_symtabs_file_matcher_ftype
expand_symtabs_symbol_matcher_ftype
It also renames the NAME_MATCHER argument in expand_symtabs_matching.
The function is named expand_symtabs_matching and it takes a name_matcher
argument. Name of what? The symtab? A symbol?
I made it SYMBOL_MATCHER to make it clearer.
* symfile.h (expand_symtabs_file_matcher_ftype): New typedef.
(expand_symtabs_symbol_matcher_ftype): New typedef.
(quick_symbol_functions.expand_symtabs_matching): Update to use.
expand_symtabs_file_matcher_ftype, expand_symtabs_symbol_matcher_ftype.

Arg name_matcher renamed to symbol_matcher.
This is the first of a set of three patches to cleanup psymtab.c a bit.
Basically, these two functions do not belong in psymtab.c:
expand_partial_symbol_names, map_partial_symbol_filenames,
and "partial" does not belong in the function name.
This first patch moves them to a better location.
The second patch adds some typedefs for function parameters to
quick_symbol_functions.expand_symtabs_matching.
The third patch removes "partial" from the function names
and uses them in more places.
* psymtab.c (expand_partial_symbol_names): Delete, moved to symfile.c.
(map_partial_symbol_filenames): Ditto.

RECORD_IS_USED and record_full_open look at current_target.to_stratum
to determine whether a record target is in use. This is wrong because
arch_stratum is greater than record_stratum, so if an arch_stratum
target is pushed, RECORD_IS_USED and record_full_open will miss it.
To fix this, we can use the existing find_record_target instead, which
looks up for a record stratum target across the target stack. Since
that means exporting find_record_target in record.h, RECORD_IS_USED
ends up redundant, so the patch eliminates it.
That exercise then reveals other issues:
- adjust_pc_after_break is gating record_full_... calls based on
RECORD_IS_USED. But, record_full_ calls shouldn't be made when
recording with the record-btrace target. So this adds a new
record_full_is_used predicate to be used in that spot.
- record_full_open says "Process record target already running", even
if the recording target is record-btrace ("process record" is the
original complete name of the record-full target). record_btrace_open
only says "The process is already being recorded." and does not
suggest "record stop", like record-full does. The patch factors out
and merges that error to a new record_preopen function that all record
targets call in their open routine.
Tested on x86_64 Fedora 17.

The rules for generating the output register files look like:
amd64.c : $(srcdir)/../regformats/i386/amd64.dat $(regdat_sh)
$(SHELL) $(regdat_sh) $(srcdir)/../regformats/i386/amd64.dat amd64.c
According to this rule, if regdat.sh is newer than amd64.c, then
regdat.sh shall be invoked on amd64.dat. According to regdat.sh, if the
script determines that the output file amd64.c has not changed, then it
will not overwrite the existing output file. This means that a
subsequent invocation of make will trigger the above rule again as
regdat.sh will be perpetually newer than amd64.c.
This then shows up in the make output like so:
/bin/bash ./../regformats/regdat.sh ./../regformats/i386/amd64-linux.dat amd64-linux.c
amd64-linux.c unchanged.
/bin/bash ./../regformats/regdat.sh ./../regformats/i386/amd64-avx-linux.dat amd64-avx-linux.c
amd64-avx-linux.c unchanged.
...
To fix this pathological behavior, it suffices to have regdat.sh
unconditionally rewrite the output register file.
On my machine, which has a regdat.sh file that is newer than some of the
input register files, this change speeds up every invocation of make
under gdb/ by about 5 seconds.
Tries to compile each header in isolation, thus ensuring headers are

On powerpc32, making ifuncs have non-default visibility in shared
libraries or pies can result in runtime failures. The problem is that
if gcc is told that a given function has non-default visibility, then
calls to that function are assumed to be local (which is true) and
thus need not go via a plt call stub (which is false for ifunc). If
the caller has no other reason to set up the got pointer (r30), code
won't be emitted to do so. However, a pic plt call stub makes use of
r30 to load the plt entry. So a call to an ifunc, which always needs
a plt entry, will fail.
This patch makes ld emit an error for the problem case, and allows
calls to non-default visibility ifuncs to work in normal executables.
I also fix some cases where ifuncs fail when using the old bss-plt.

This patch reorganizes code on gdb/i386-tdep.c's SystemTap SDT probe
support functions. Before it, the code to parse special operands on x86
lived in a single, big function. This patch creates 2 new functions
that makes the code more organized and removes a few indentation levels
(which is always good IMO).
I haven't modified anything logical in the functions, i.e., there's still
one latent bug on i386_stap_parse_special_token_triplet now. I will soon
post a patch to fix this, and to also improve the readability of the two
new functions.

S390, the dw2-dir-file-name test case fails in the first
gdb_continue_to_breakpoint. Indeed, the breakpoint is now placed into
the alignment gap *before* the actual function.
This happens because the test case declares the respective "*_start"
symbol as a "loose" label before the function definition, and the
compiler inserts the alignment between that label and the function
itself.
The "*_start" symbols were only necessary because FUNC made the
function static. The fix makes the functions extern instead, thus
making the "*_start" labels unnecessary.
