Remove lwp -> pid conversion in linux_nat_xfer_partial
The linux_nat_xfer_partial does a conversion of inferior_ptid: if it's
an LWP (ptid::lwp != 0), it builds a new ptid with the lwp as
the pid and assigns that temporarily to inferior_ptid. For example, if
inferior_ptid is:
{ .pid = 1234, .lwp = 1235 }
it will assign this to inferior_ptid for the duration of the call:
{ .pid = 1235, .lwp = 0 }
Instead of doing this, this patch teaches the inf-ptrace implementation
of xfer_partial to deal with ptids representing lwps by using
get_ptrace_pid.
Also, in linux_proc_xfer_spu and linux_proc_xfer_partial, we use ptid_get_lwp
instead of ptid_get_pid. While not strictly necessary, since the content of
/proc/<pid> and /proc/<lwp> should be the same, it's a bit safer, because:
- some files under /proc/<pid>/ may not work if the <pid> thread is
running, just like ptrace requires a stopped thread. The current
thread's lwp id is more likely to be in the necessary state (stopped).
- if the leader (<pid>) had exited and is thus now zombie, then several
files under "/proc/<pid>" won't work, while they will if you use
"/proc/<lwp>".
The testsuite found no regression on native amd64 linux.
gdb/ChangeLog:
* inf-ptrace.c (inf_ptrace_xfer_partial): Get pid from ptid
using get_ptrace_pid.
* linux-nat.c (linux_nat_xfer_partial): Don't set/restore
inferior_ptid.
(linux_proc_xfer_partial, linux_proc_xfer_spu): Use lwp of
inferior_ptid instead of pid.
