gdb: introduce iterator_range, remove next_adapter
I was always a bit confused by next_adapter, because it kind of mixes
the element type and the iterator type. In reality, it is not much more
than a class that wraps two iterators (begin and end). However, it
assumes that:
- you can construct the begin iterator by passing a pointer to the
first element of the iterable
- you can default-construct iterator to make the end iterator
I think that by generalizing it a little bit, we can re-use it at more
places.
Rename it to "iterator_range". I think it describes a bit better: it's
a range made by wrapping a begin and end iterator. Move it to its own
file, since it's not related to next_iterator anymore.
iterator_range has two constructors. The variadic one, where arguments
are forwarded to construct the underlying begin iterator. The end
iterator is constructed through default construction. This is a
generalization of what we have today.
There is another constructor which receives already constructed begin
and end iterators, useful if the end iterator can't be obtained by
default-construction. Or, if you wanted to make a range that does not
end at the end of the container, you could pass any iterator as the
"end".
This generalization allows removing some "range" classes, like
all_inferiors_range. These classes existed only to pass some arguments
when constructing the begin iterator. With iterator_range, those same
arguments are passed to the iterator_range constructed and then
forwarded to the constructed begin iterator.
There is a small functional difference in how iterator_range works
compared to next_adapter. next_adapter stored the pointer it received
as argument and constructeur an iterator in the `begin` method.
iterator_range constructs the begin iterator and stores it as a member.
Its `begin` method returns a copy of that iterator.
With just iterator_range, uses of next_adapter<foo> would be replaced
with:
using foo_iterator = next_iterator<foo>;
using foo_range = iterator_range<foo_iterator>;
However, I added a `next_range` wrapper as a direct replacement for
next_adapter<foo>. IMO, next_range is a slightly better name than
next_adapter.
The rest of the changes are applications of this new class.

gdb/testsuite: restore configure script
Commit
f99d1d37496f ("Remove gdb/testsuite/configure") removed
gdb/testsuite/configure, as anything gdb/testsuite/configure did could
be done by gdb/configure.
There is however one use case that popped up when this changed
propagated to downstream consumers, to run the testsuite on an already
built GDB. In the workflow of ROCm-GDB at AMD, a GDB package is built
in a CI job. This GDB package is then tested on different machines /
hardware configurations as part of other CI jobs. To achieve this,
those CI jobs only configure the testsuite directory and run "make
check" with an appropriate board file.
In light of this use case, the way I see it is that gdb/testsuite could
be considered its own project. It could be stored in a completely
different repo if we want to, it just happens to be stored inside gdb/.
Since the only downside of having gdb/testsuite/configure is that it
takes a few more seconds to run, but on the other hand it's quite useful
for some people, I propose re-adding it.
In a sense, this is revert of
f99d1d37496f, but it's not a direct
git-revert, as some things have changed since.

Update gdb performance testsuite to be compatible with Python 3.8

Error while executing Python code.
(gdb) FAIL: gdb.perf/single-step.exp: python SingleStep(1000).run()
... many times over.
The problem is that the testsuite is using time.clock(), deprecated in
Python 3.3 and finaly removed in Python 3.8. The guidelines say to
use time.perf_counter() or time.process_time() instead depending on
requirements. Looking at the current description of those functions,
at:
https://docs.python.org/3.10/library/time.html
we have:
time.perf_counter() -> float
Return the value (in fractional seconds) of a performance
counter, i.e. a clock with the highest available resolution to
measure a short duration. It does include time elapsed during
sleep and is system-wide. (...)
time.process_time() -> float
Return the value (in fractional seconds) of the sum of the
system and user CPU time of the current process. It does not
include time elapsed during sleep. It is process-wide by
definition. (...)
I'm thinking that it's just best to record both instead of picking
one. So this patch replaces the MeasurementCpuTime measurement class
with two new classes -- MeasurementPerfCounter and
MeasurementProcessTime. Correspondingly, this changes the reports in
testsuite/perftest.log -- we have two new "perf_counter" and
"process_time" measurements and the "cpu_time" measurement is gone. I
don't suppose breaking backward compatibility here is a big problem.
I suspect no one is really tracking long term performance using the
perf testsuite today. And if they are, it shouldn't be hard to adjust.
For backward compatility, with Python < 3.3, both perf_counter and
process_time use the old time.clock.

Linker plugin_object_p opens the IR archive for each IR archive member.

Linux: Access memory even if threads are running
Currently, on GNU/Linux, if you try to access memory and you have a
running thread selected, GDB fails the memory accesses, like:
(gdb) c&
Continuing.
(gdb) p global_var
Cannot access memory at address 0x555555558010
Or:
(gdb) b main
Breakpoint 2 at 0x55555555524d: file access-mem-running.c, line 59.
Warning:
Cannot insert breakpoint 2.
Cannot access memory at address 0x55555555524d
This patch removes this limitation. It teaches the native Linux
target to read/write memory even if the target is running. And it
does this without temporarily stopping threads. We now get:
(gdb) c&
Continuing.
(gdb) p global_var
$1 = 123
(gdb) b main
Breakpoint 2 at 0x555555555259: file access-mem-running.c, line 62.
(The scenarios above work correctly with current GDBserver, because
GDBserver temporarily stops all threads in the process whenever GDB
wants to access memory (see prepare_to_access_memory /
done_accessing_memory). Freezing the whole process makes sense when
we need to be sure that we have a consistent view of memory and don't
race with the inferior changing it at the same time as GDB is
accessing it. But I think that's a too-heavy hammer for the default
behavior. I think that ideally, whether to stop all threads or not
should be policy decided by gdb core, probably best implemented by
exposing something like gdbserver's prepare_to_access_memory /
done_accessing_memory to gdb core.)
Currently, if we're accessing (reading/writing) just a few bytes, then
the Linux native backend does not try accessing memory via
/proc/<pid>/mem and goes straight to ptrace
PTRACE_PEEKTEXT/PTRACE_POKETEXT. However, ptrace always fails when
the ptracee is running. So the first step is to prefer
/proc/<pid>/mem even for small accesses. Without further changes
however, that may cause a performance regression, due to constantly
opening and closing /proc/<pid>/mem for each memory access. So the
next step is to keep the /proc/<pid>/mem file open across memory
accesses. If we have this, then it doesn't make sense anymore to even
have the ptrace fallback, so the patch disables it.
I've made it such that GDB only ever has one /proc/<pid>/mem file open
at any time. As long as a memory access hits the same inferior
process as the previous access, then we reuse the previously open
file. If however, we access memory of a different process, then we
close the previous file and open a new one for the new process.
If we wanted, we could keep one /proc/<pid>/mem file open per
inferior, and never close them (unless the inferior exits or execs).
However, having seen bfd patches recently about hitting too many open
file descriptors, I kept the logic to have only one file open tops.
Also, we need to handle memory accesses for processes for which we
don't have an inferior object, for when we need to detach a
fork-child, and we'd probaly want to handle caching the open file for
that scenario (no inferior for process) too, which would probably end
up meaning caching for last non-inferior process, which is very much
what I'm proposing anyhow. So always having one file open likely ends
up a smaller patch.
The next step is handling the case of GDB reading/writing memory
through a thread that is running and exits. The access should not
result in a user-visible failure if the inferior/process is still
alive.
Once we manage to open a /proc/<lwpid>/mem file, then that file is
usable for memory accesses even if the corresponding lwp exits and is
reaped. I double checked that trying to open the same
/proc/<lwpid>/mem path again fails because the lwp is really gone so
there's no /proc/<lwpid>/ entry on the filesystem anymore, but the
previously open file remains usable. It's only when the whole process
execs that we need to reopen a new file.
When the kernel destroys the whole address space, i.e., when the
process exits or execs, the reads/writes fail with 0 aka EOF, in which
case there's nothing else to do than returning a memory access
failure. Note this means that when we get an exec event, we need to
reopen the file, to access the process's new address space.
If we need to open (or reopen) the /proc/<pid>/mem file, and the LWP
we're opening it for exits before we open it and before we reap the
LWP (i.e., the LWP is zombie), the open fails with EACCES. The patch
handles this by just looking for another thread until it finds one
that we can open a /proc/<pid>/mem successfully for.
If we need to open (or reopen) the /proc/<pid>/mem file, and the LWP
we're opening has exited and we already reaped it, which is the case
if the selected thread is in THREAD_EXIT state, the open fails with
ENOENT. The patch handles this the same way as a zombie race
(EACCES), instead of checking upfront whether we're accessing a
known-exited thread, because that would result in more complicated
code, because we also need to handle accessing lwps that are not
listed in the core thread list, and it's the core thread list that
records the THREAD_EXIT state.
The patch includes two testcases:
#1 - gdb.base/access-mem-running.exp
This is the conceptually simplest - it is single-threaded, and has
GDB read and write memory while the program is running. It also
tests setting a breakpoint while the program is running, and checks
that the breakpoint is hit immediately.
#2 - gdb.threads/access-mem-running-thread-exit.exp
This one is more elaborate, as it continuously spawns short-lived
threads in order to exercise accessing memory just while threads are
exiting. It also spawns two different processes and alternates
accessing memory between the two processes to exercise the reopening
the /proc file frequently. This also ends up exercising GDB reading
from an exited thread frequently. I confirmed by putting abort()
calls in the EACCES/ENOENT paths added by the patch that we do hit
all of them frequently with the testcase. It also exits the
process's main thread (i.e., the main thread becomes zombie), to
make sure accessing memory in such a corner-case scenario works now
and in the future.
The tests fail on GNU/Linux native before the code changes, and pass
after. They pass against current GDBserver, again because GDBserver
supports memory access even if all threads are running, by
transparently pausing the whole process.

gdb: introduce frame_debug_printf
Introduce frame_debug_printf, to convert the "frame" debug messages to
the new system. Replace fprint_frame with a frame_info::to_string
method that returns a string, like what was done with
frame_id::to_string. This makes it easier to use with
frame_debug_printf.
gdb/ChangeLog:
* frame.h (frame_debug_printf): New.
* frame.c: Use frame_debug_printf throughout when printing frame
debug messages.
* amd64-windows-tdep.c: Likewise.
* value.c: Likewise.
gdb/testsuite/ChangeLog:
* gdb.dwarf2/dw2-reg-undefined.exp: Update regexp.
