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.

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.

* gdb.mi/mi-info-os.exp: Connect to the target with
mi_gdb_target_load.
Although we can tell upfront whether a remote target supports target
side commands, we can only tell whether the target supports that in
combination with a given breakpoint kind (software, hardware,
watchpoints, etc.) when we go and try to insert such a breakpoint kind
the first time. It's not desirable to make remote_insert_breakpoint
simply return -1 in this case, because if the breakpoint was set in a
shared library, insert_bp_location will assume that the breakpoint
insertion failed because the library wasn't mapped in.
insert_bp_location already handles errors/exceptions thrown from the
target_insert_xxx methods, exactly so the backend can tell the user
the detailed reason the insertion of hw breakpoints failed. But, in
the case of software breakpoints, it discards the detailed error
message.
So the patch makes insert_bp_location use the error's message for SW
breakpoints too, and, introduces a NOT_SUPPORTED_ERROR error code so
that insert_bp_location doesn't confuse the error for failure due to a
shared library disappearing.
The result is:
(gdb) c

Cannot insert breakpoint 2: Target doesn't support breakpoints that have target side commands.

* server.c (handle_status): Don't discard previous queued stop
replies or thread's pending status here.
(main) <disconnection>: Do it here instead.
Currently, when GDB connects in all-stop mode, GDBserver always
responds to the status packet with a GDB_SIGNAL_TRAP, even if the
program is actually stopped for some other signal.
(gdb) tar rem ...
...
(gdb) c
Program received signal SIGUSR1, User defined signal 1.
(gdb) disconnect
(gdb) tar rem ...
(gdb) c
(Or a GDB crash instead of an explicit disconnect.)
This results in the program losing that signal on that last continue,
because gdb will tell the target to resume with no signal (to suppress
the GDB_SIGNAL_TRAP, due to 'handle SISGTRAP nopass'), and that will
actually suppress the real signal the program had stopped for
(SIGUSR1). To fix that, I think we should make GDBserver report the
real signal the thread had stopped for in response to the status
packet:
@item ?
@cindex @samp{?} packet
Indicate the reason the target halted. The reply is the same as for
step and continue.
But, that raises the question -- which thread are we reporting the
status for? Due to how the RSP in all-stop works, we can only report
one status. The status packet's response is a stop reply packet, so
it includes the thread identifier, so it's not a problem packet-wise.
However, GDBserver is currently always reporting the status for first
thread in the thread list, even though that may well not be the thread
that got the signal that caused the program to stop. So the next
logical step would be to report the status for the
last_ptid/last_status thread (the last event reported to gdb), if it's
still around; and if not, fallback to some other thread.
There's an issue on the GDB side with that, though...
GDB currently always adds the thread reported in response to the
status query as the first thread in its list. That means that if we
start with e.g.,
(gdb) info threads
3 Thread 1003 ...
* 2 Thread 1002 ...
1 Thread 1001 ...
And reconnect:
(gdb) disconnect
(gdb) tar rem ...
We end up with:
(gdb) info threads
3 Thread 1003 ...
2 Thread 1001 ...
* 1 Thread 1002 ...
Not a real big issue, but it's reasonably fixable, by having GDB
fetch/sync the thread list before fetching the status/'?', and then
using the status to select the right thread as current on the GDB
side. Holes in the thread numbers are squashed before/after
reconnection (e.g., 2,3,5 becomes 1,2,3), but the order is preserved,
which I think is both good, and good enough.
However (yes, there's more...), the previous GDB that was connected
might have had gdbserver running in non-stop mode, or could have left
gdbserver doing disconnected tracing (which also forces non-stop), and
if the new gdb/connection is in all-stop mode, we can end up with more
than one thread with a signal to report back to gdb. As we can only
report one thread/status (in the all-stop RSP variant; the non-stop
variant doesn't have this issue), we get to do what we do at every
other place we have this situation -- leave events we can't report
right now as pending, so that the next resume picks them up.
Note all this ammounts to a QoI change, within the existing framework.
There's really no RSP change here.
The only user visible change (other than that the signal is program is
stopped at isn't lost / is passed to the program), is in "info
program", that now can show the signal the program stopped for. Of
course, the next resume will respect the pass/nopass setting for the
signal in question. It'd be reasonable to have the initial connection
tell the user the program was stopped with a signal, similar to when
we load a core to debug, but I'm leaving that out for a future change.
I think we'll need to either change how handle_inferior_event & co
handle stop_soon, or maybe bypass them completely (like
fork-child.c:startup_inferior) for that.
