This is a regression from 7.5, introduced/exposed by:
http://sourceware.org/ml/gdb-patches/2012-07/msg00259.html
There are a series of issues with this code.
It does:
unsigned int val = parse_and_eval_long (arg);
^^^^^^^^^^^^
(unsigned, usually 32-bit) while parse_and_eval_long returns a LONGEST
(usually 64-bit), so we lose precision without noticing:
(gdb) set remote hardware-watchpoint-limit 0x100000000
(gdb) show remote hardware-watchpoint-limit 0x100000000
The maximum number of target hardware watchpoints is 0.
While at it, print the invalid number with plongest, so the user sees
what GDB thought the number was:
(gdb) set remote hardware-watchpoint-limit 0x100000000
integer
4294967296 out of range
So with "set remote hardware-watchpoint-limit -1", val ends converted
to 0xffffffff, which then fails the
else if (val >= INT_MAX)
error (_("integer %u out of range"), val);
test.
Looking at that INT_MAX check, we forbid INT_MAX itself, but we
shouldn't, as that does fit in 'int' -- we want to forbid values
_greater_ than INT_MAX (and less than INT_MIN, while at it):
(gdb) set remote hardware-watchpoint-limit
2147483647
integer
2147483647 out of range
The same problem is in the new var_zuinteger_unlimited code, which
also uses "int" for variable.
Also, when printing a 'signed int', we should use %d, not %u.
This adds a couple regression tests. Not completely thorough in checking
all kinds of invalid input; I'm saving more exaustive testing around
zXXinteger commands for something like new test-assisting commands
like "maint test cmd-zinteger -1", where testing would focus on the
command types, and thus be independent of particular user commands of
particular GDB features.
Tested on x86_64 Fedora 17.
