The stub unwinder is used on AArch64 if the target's memory is not
readable at the current PC. For example, the user could try to call at
an invalid address such as 0x0, as covered in the gdb.base/signull.exp
test case. Many GDB ports use a similar unwinder to handle this case
too.
If we purposely kill the inferior before examining the trace then we get
the following issue:
~~~
...
(gdb) trace f
Tracepoint 3 at 0x7fb7fc28c0
(gdb) tstart
(gdb) continue
...
(gdb) tstop
(gdb) tsave /tmp/trace

Register 31 is not available.
^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
Found trace frame 0, tracepoint 3
#-1 0x0000007fb7fc28c0 in f () ...

~~~
This patch teaches the stub unwinder to report to the core frame code
with UNWIND_UNAVAILABLE when either the stack pointer of the return
address are unavailable to read from the target.
gdb/ChangeLog:
* aarch64-tdep.c (aarch64_make_stub_cache): Set available_p and
swallow NOT_AVAILABLE_ERROR.

Without debugging information, we have the following issue when
examining a trace buffer:
~~~
...
(gdb) trace f
Tracepoint 3 at 0x7fb7fc28c0
(gdb) tstart
(gdb) continue
...
(gdb) tstop
(gdb) tfind start
Register 31 is not available.
^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
Found trace frame 0, tracepoint 3
#-1 0x0000007fb7fc28c0 in f () ...
^^^
~~~
The reason for this is that the target's stack pointer is unavailable
when examining the trace buffer. What we are seeing is due to the
'tfind' command creating a sentinel frame and unwinding it. If an
exception is thrown, we are left with the sentinel frame being displayed
at level #-1. The exception is thrown when the prologue unwinder tries
to read the stack pointer to construct an ID for the frame.
This patch fixes this by making the prologue unwinder catch
NOT_AVAILABLE_ERROR exceptions when either registers or memory is
unreadable and report back to the frame core code with
UNWIND_UNAVAILABLE.
gdb/ChangeLog:
* aarch64-tdep.c (aarch64_prologue_cache) <available_p>: New

This patch moves the address of the start of a function (func) and the
address from which it was called (prev_pc) into aarch64_prologue_cache.
The idea is to keep accesses to the inferior's registers into
aarch64_make_prologue_cache and aarch64_make_stub_cache.

{
...
/* Info used when accessing registers with PTRACE_PEEKUSER /

that usrregs can be NULL if all registers are transferred with
regsets, which is exactly what aarch64-linux does. This patch
is to set usrregs to NULL in regs_info and remove
aarch64_usrregs_info and aarch64_regmap.

When deleting an inferior, delete the associated program space as well
if it becomes unused. This replaces the "pruning" approach, with which
you could forget to call prune_program_spaces (as seen, with the
-remove-inferior command, see [1]).
This allows to remove the prune_program_spaces function. At the same
time, I was able to clean up the delete_inferior* family:
- delete_inferior is unused
- delete_inferior_silent is only used in monitor_close, but is replaced
with discard_all_inferiors [2], so it becomes unused
- All remaining calls to delete_inferior_1 are with silent=1, so the
parameter is removed
- delete_inferior_1 is renamed to delete_inferior
I renamed pspace_empty_p to program_space_empty_p. I prefer if the
"exported" functions have a more explicit and standard name.
Tested on Ubuntu 14.10.

Multi-arch related tests under gdb.multi are to compile programs with

different compilers are needed to compile both aarch64 program and
arm (aarch32) program. This patch is to adjust these test cases to
compile programs in different modes with different compiler.

Without this patch, struct target_desc *tdesc_* are not initialised
properly, that is, fields arch and osabi in 'struct target_desc' are
not set properly. This doesn't cause any problems on single arch
debugging, because arch-utils.c:gdbarch_info_fill will guess correctly.
However, in multi-arch debugging, gdbarch_info_fill gets the aarch64
arch, but the target description is for arm (because the current
inferior is 32-bit arm).
It is a surprise to me we didn't set architecture to "arm" before in *.xml
files, and I didn't find out why didn't do so. AFAICS,

This patch is to let aarch64 GDB debug 32-bit arm program natively. In
each function for fetching and storing registers, GDB will check
gdbarch_bfd_arch_info (gdbarch)->bits_per_word, if it is 32, call
the corresponding aarch32 functions in aarch32-linux-nat.c, otherwise
fall back to aarch64 code to fetch and store registers.
aarch64_linux_read_description has to return the right target description,
but we don't have gdbarch available there, so GDB fetches auxv and gets
AT_PHENT, in order to determine whether the target is 32-bit or 64-bit.
I learned this trick from solib-svr4.c.

Patch "Do not skip prologue for asm (.S) files" [1] changes GDB's
behaviour on which test gdb.arch/thumb-singlestep.exp depends, so
it causes the fail below:
(gdb) si^M
37 blx foo^M
(gdb) FAIL: gdb.arch/thumb-singlestep.exp: step into foo
the test assumes the program will stop at the instruction after "push"
but it doesn't. The fix to this fail is to do one more single step.

* gdb.arch/thumb-singlestep.exp: Do one more single step.
Changes the documentation for the layout and focus commands.
Instead of documenting each layout (or focus) sub-command as a separate
command, document a single layout (and focus) command which takes a
parameter, then list the possible parameters in a table nested under
each command.
The documentation for the layout command has been extended little to
make it clearer which windows are shown in each layout.
gdb/ChangeLog:
* doc/gdb.texinfo (TUI): Restructure documentation on TUI layout
and focus commands.
Now that the GDB 7.10 branch has been created, we can
bump the version number.
gdb/ChangeLog:
GDB 7.10 branch created (66c4b3e8a6):
* version.in: Bump version to 7.10.50.DATE-cvs.
This fixes regressions introduced with the original change to not
consider permanent breakpoints always inserted:

Fix problems with finishing a dummy function call on simulators.
Some checks were mistakenly left out of the original patch, which
caused the following failures:
-PASS: gdb.base/shlib-call.exp: print mainshr1(1)
-PASS: gdb.base/shlib-call.exp: step into mainshr1
+FAIL: gdb.base/shlib-call.exp: print mainshr1(1)
+FAIL: gdb.base/shlib-call.exp: step into mainshr1
-PASS: gdb.cp/chained-calls.exp: q(p())
+FAIL: gdb.cp/chained-calls.exp: q(p())
-PASS: gdb.cp/chained-calls.exp: q(p() + r())
+FAIL: gdb.cp/chained-calls.exp: q(p() + r())
-PASS: gdb.cp/chained-calls.exp: g(f(g(f() + f())) + f())
+FAIL: gdb.cp/chained-calls.exp: g(f(g(f() + f())) + f())
-PASS: gdb.cp/chained-calls.exp: *c
-PASS: gdb.cp/chained-calls.exp: *c + *c
-PASS: gdb.cp/chained-calls.exp: q(*c + *c)
+FAIL: gdb.cp/chained-calls.exp: *c
+FAIL: gdb.cp/chained-calls.exp: *c + *c
+FAIL: gdb.cp/chained-calls.exp: q(*c + *c)
-PASS: gdb.cp/classes.exp: calling method for small class
+FAIL: gdb.cp/classes.exp: calling method for small class
The above is likely caused by GDB not removing the permanent
breakpoints from the target, leading to the inferior executing
the breakpoint instruction and tripping on a SIGSEGV.
gdb/ChangeLog:
2015-07-06 Luis Machado <lgustavo@codesourcery.com>
* breakpoint.c (remove_breakpoint_1): Don't handle permanent
breakpoints in a special way.
(remove_breakpoint): Likewise.
(mark_breakpoints_out): Likewise.
