Restore original GDB prompt in define.exp
define.exp will fail on a GDB which has set a custom prompt to identify
itself. This is because the test resets the prompt to a hard coded
"(gdb)" but then verifies the success of this against the value in
$gdb_prompt, which is set to the custom prompt.
The original approach to fix this involved resetting the prompt to
$gdb_prompt rather than a hard coded "(gdb)". However it was noted during
review that $gdb_prompt is a regular expression rather than a string.
This is problematic because in general the prompt would be reset to a
regular expression rather than an instance of a string accepted by said
regular expression.
The fix used in this commit avoids the above issue by capturing the
literal prompt from running "show prompt" and uses this literal to
restore the previous prompt.

You get:

2 breakpoint keep y 0x0000000000b1288d exception throw
3 breakpoint keep y 0x0000000000b12931 exception rethrow
I think it doesn't make much sense usability-wise, to show a
catchpoint as a breakpoint. The fact that GDB sets a breakpoint at
some magic address in the C++ run time is an implementation detail,
IMO. And as seen in the previous patch, such a catchpoint can end up
with more than one location/address even, so showing a single address
isn't entirely accurate.
This commit hides the addresses from view, and makes GDB show
"catchpoint" for type as well:
(gdb) info breakpoints
Num Type Disp Enb Address What
1 catchpoint keep y exception catch
2 catchpoint keep y exception throw
3 catchpoint keep y exception rethrow
This comment in the code seems telling:
/* We need to reset 'type' in order for code in breakpoint.c to do
the right thing. */
cp->type = bp_breakpoint;
It kind of suggests that the reason catchpoints end up shown as
breakpoints was that it was easier to implement them that way, rather
than a desired property.
This commit fixes things up to make it possible to have bp_catch
breakpoints have software/hardware breakpoint locations, thus
eliminating the need for that hack:
- redo breakpoint_address_is_meaningful in terms of the location's
type rather than breakpoint type.
- teach bpstat_what about stepping over the catchpoint locations.
- install a allocate_location method for "catch catch/throw/rethrow",
one that forces the location type.
Note that this also reverts the gdb hunk from:

Fix "info break" + "catch catch" + -static-{libstdc++,libgcc}
If you debug current GDB, set a "catch catch/throw/rethrow"
catchpoint, and then do "info breakpoints", the top GDB hits an
internal error:
(top-gdb) catch catch
Catchpoint 1 (catch)
(top-gdb) info breakpoints
Num Type Disp Enb Address What
1 breakpoint keep y src/gdb/breakpoint.c:6040: internal-error: void print_one_breakpoint_location(breakpoint*, bp_location*, int, bp_location**, int): Assertion `b->loc == NULL || b->loc->next == NULL' failed.
A problem internal to GDB has been detected,
further debugging may prove unreliable.
Quit this debugging session? (y or n)
The assertion in question is asserting that a breakpoint with a
print_one method only has one location, and it fails because this
catchpoint ends up with two locations.
Internally, "catch catch" sets a breakpoint at __cxa_begin_catch. If
we do that manually, we see the locations:
(top-gdb) b -qualified __cxa_begin_catch
Breakpoint 2 at 0xb122b0 (2 locations)
(top-gdb) info breakpoints
Num Type Disp Enb Address What
2 breakpoint keep y <MULTIPLE>
2.1 y 0x0000000000b122b0 <__cxa_begin_catch>
2.2 y 0x00007ffff2f4ddb0 in __cxxabiv1::__cxa_begin_catch(void*) at ../../../../libstdc++-v3/libsupc++/eh_catch.cc:41
Note that I had used -qualified. It seems strange that we get a
location for a namespaced symbol, but that happens because the minimal
symbol for that address is indeed called __cxa_begin_catch.
The real issue is that gdb is linked with
-static-libgcc/-static-libstdc++. And then, it _also_ ends up with
shared libstc++ loaded:
(top-gdb) info sharedlibrary stdc++
From To Syms Read Shared Object Library
0x00007ffff2f4b380 0x00007ffff2ffc018 Yes /lib64/libstdc++.so.6
Location 2.2 is set within libstdc++.so.6's range:
(top-gdb) p 0x00007ffff2f4b380 <= 0x00007ffff2f4ddb0 && 0x00007ffff2f4ddb0 < 0x00007ffff2ffc018
$1 = true
So due to -static-lib*, we end up with _two_ copies of the
__cxa_begin_catch code:
(top-gdb) disassemble 0x0000000000b122b0
Dump of assembler code for function __cxa_begin_catch:
0x0000000000b122b0 <+0>: push %rbx
0x0000000000b122b1 <+1>: mov %rdi,%rbx
0x0000000000b122b4 <+4>: callq 0xb11a80 <__cxa_get_globals>
0x0000000000b122b9 <+9>: movabs $0xb8b1aabcbcd4d500,%rdx
...
(top-gdb) disassemble 0x00007ffff2f4ddb0
Dump of assembler code for function __cxxabiv1::__cxa_begin_catch(void*):
0x00007ffff2f4ddb0 <+0>: push %rbx
0x00007ffff2f4ddb1 <+1>: mov %rdi,%rbx
0x00007ffff2f4ddb4 <+4>: callq 0x7ffff2f4a090 <__cxa_get_globals@plt>
0x00007ffff2f4ddb9 <+9>: movabs $0xb8b1aabcbcd4d500,%rdx
...
I think we end up with libstdc++.so.6 loaded because
libsource-highlight.so depends on it.
Irrespective of whether it's a good idea to use
-static-libgcc/-static-libstdc++, GDB should not crash. Since there
are two copies of the code, it seems right to have more than one
location. So the fix is just to remove the assertion.
A testcase is included, which mimics the scenerio described above,
with binary linked with -static-lib{stdc++,gcc} and a shared library
that is linked normally, along with other combinations for good
measure.

gdb: Don't skip prologue for explicit line breakpoints in assembler
It was observed that in some cases, placing a breakpoint in an
assembler file using filename:line-number syntax would result in the
breakpoint being placed at a different line within the file.
For example, consider this x86-64 assembler:
test:
push %rbp /* Break here. */
mov %rsp, %rbp
nop /* Stops here. */
The user places the breakpoint using file:line notation targeting the
line marked 'Break here', GDB actually stops at the line marked 'Stops
here'.
The reason is that the label 'test' is identified as the likely start
of a function, and the call to symtab.c:skip_prologue_sal causes GDB
to skip forward over the instructions that GDB believes to be part of
the prologue.
I believe however, that when debugging assembler code, where the user
has instruction-by-instruction visibility, if they ask for a specific
line, GDB should (as far as possible) stop on that line, and not
perform any prologue skipping. I don't believe that the behaviour of
higher level languages should change, in these cases skipping the
prologue seems like the correct thing to do.
In order to implement this change I needed to extend our current
tracking of when the user has requested an explicit line number. We
already tracked this in some cases, but not in others (see the changes
in linespec.c). However, once I did this I started to see some
additional failures (in tests gdb.base/break-include.exp
gdb.base/ending-run.exp gdb.mi/mi-break.exp gdb.mi/mi-reverse.exp
gdb.mi/mi-simplerun.exp) where we currently expected a breakpoint
placed at one file and line number to be updated to reference a
different line number, this was fixed by removing some code in
symtab.c:skip_prologue_sal. My concern here is that removing this
check didn't cause anything else to fail.
I have a new test that covers my original case, this is written for
x86-64 as most folk have access to such a target, however, any
architecture that has a prologue scanner can be impacted by this
change.
gdb/ChangeLog:
* linespec.c (decode_digits_list_mode): Set explicit_line to a
bool value.
(decode_digits_ordinary): Set explicit_line field in sal.
* symtab.c (skip_prologue_sal): Don't skip prologue for a

gdb: Remove unneeded parameter from set_breakpoint_location_function
The explicit_loc parameter in set_breakpoint_location_function is not
useful. This parameter is set from two possible fields of the
symtab_and_line used to create the breakpoint; the explicit_pc field,
and the explicit_line field.
First, the explicit_line field, this is not currently set for any
breakpoint command, so will never be true.
Next, the explicit_pc field. This can be true but will never be true
at the same time that the sal->msymbol field is also true - the
sal->msymbol is only ever set in linespec.c:minsym_found, which
doesn't allow for explicitly setting the pc.
The result of this is that if we are setting a breakpoint on an
msymbol that could turn out to be an ifunc, then we will not also have
either an explicit_pc or an explicit_line, this check can therefore be
removed.
There should be no user visible changes after this commit.

explicit_loc parameter.

gdb/riscv: Don't use default bfd to define required features
When we initialise a gdbarch object we perform a check to try and
detect if the user is doing something silly; trying to run an RV64
binary on an RV32 target. To perform this check we compare the xlen
from the target description with the xlen specified in the headers on
the ELF being debugged.
If there is no ELF being debugged then we (currently) try to use the
bfd_arch_info from the gdbarch_info object, which will have been set
to the default architecture if no bfd is currently being debugged.
For RISC-V the default architecture is RV64.
What this means is that if a user tries to connect to an RV32 target
without specifying the BFD to debug then GDB will assume RV64. The
sanity check mentioned above will failed (xlen difference) and GDB
will throw an error. The error causes GDB to disconnect from the
remote target.
After this commit GDB no longer relies on the default bfd
architecture. If the user tries to connect without specifying the bfd
then GDB will simply make use of the xlen extracted from the target
description in order to find or create a suitable gdbarch object.
gdb/ChangeLog:
* riscv-tdep.c (riscv_features_from_gdbarch_info): Don't modify

Re: gas/ELF: don't accumulate .type settings
git commit
f2d4ba38f5 caused many failures for mips-sgi-irix targets,
and added a new test that failed for aarch64, nds32, and rl78.
The mips failures are due to BSF_OBJECT being set in many cases for
symbols by the mips .global/.globl directive. This patch removes that
code and instead sets BSF_OBJECT in a target frob_symbol function,
also moving the mips hacks in elf_frob_symbol to the new function.
Note that common symbols are handled fine in elf.c:swap_out_syms
without needing to set BSF_OBJECT, so that old code can disappear.

i386/AArch64: Remove old xml tests
Both the i386, X86_64 and AArch64 builds of gdbserver include a bunch of legacy
xml files, dat files and auto generated C files, when building for unit test.
These tests exists back from when feature target descriptions were added to
prove that the new target descriptions were identical to the original
older versions. The old files are not used for anything other than these tests.
Now that this has been proven, we are not gaining anything by keeping the
original files and tests. Should new functionality be added, it would break
the tests, unless the functionality was backported to the xml. There is no
requirement that we must match the exact xml from N releases ago. It adds
obfuscation, where as the feature target descriptions were meant to simplify
the code.
In addition, there are a bunch of xml and dat files which are completely unused.
This patch removes the selftests and the target descriptions from gdbserver.
Update the unittest to allow 0 tests (note, this failed on other targets that
never had any tests).

gas/ELF: don't accumulate .type settings
Recently a patch was submitted for a Xen Project test harness binary to
override the compiler specified @object to @func (see [1]). In a reply I
suggested we shouldn't make ourselves dependent on currently unspecified
behavior of gas here: It accumulates all requests, and then
bfd/elf.c:swap_out_syms(), in an apparently ad hoc manner, prioritizes
certain flags over others.
Make the behavior predictable: Generally the last .type is what counts.
Exceptions are directives which set multiple bits (TLS, IFUNC, and
UNIQUE): Subsequent directives requesting just the more generic bit
(i.e. FUNC following IFUNC) won't clear the more specific one. Warn
about incompatible changes, except from/to STT_NOTYPE.
Also add a new target hook, which hppa wants to use right away afaict.
In the course of adding the warning I ran into two ld testsuite
failures. I can only assume that it was a copy-and-paste mistake that
lead to the same symbol having its type set twice.

Teach gdb::option about string options
A following patch will make the "pipe" command use the gdb::option
framework for option processing. However, "pipe"'s only option today
is a string option, "-d DELIM", and gdb::option does not support
string options yet.
This commit adds support for string options, mapped to var_string.
For now, a string is parsed up until the first whitespace. I imagine
that we'll need to add support for quoting so that we could do:
(gdb) cmd -option 'some -string'
without gdb confusing the "-string" for an option.
This doesn't seem important for pipe, so I'm leaving it for another
day.
One thing I'm not happy with, is that the string data is managed as a
raw malloc-allocated char *, which means that we need to xfree it
manually. This is because var_string settings work that way too.
Although with var_string settings we're leaking the strings at gdb
exit, that was never really a problem. For options though, leaking is
undesirable.
I think we should tackle that for both settings and options at the
same time, so for now I'm just managing the malloced data manually.
It's a bit ugly in option_def_and_value, but at least that's hidden
from view.
For testing, this adds a new "-string" option to "maint
test-settings", and then tweaks gdb.base/options.exp to exercise it.

Make gdb::option::complete_options save processed arguments too
Currently, gdb::option::complete_options just discards any processed
option argument, because no completer needs that data.
When completing "pipe -d XXX gdbcmd XXX" however, the completer needs
to know about -d's argument (XXX), in order to know where input is
already past the gdb command and the delimiter.
In this commit, the fix for that is the factoring out of the
save_option_value_in_ctx function and calling it in complete_options.
For testing, this makes "maint show test-options-completion-result"
show the processed options too, like what the "maint test-options"
subcommands output when run. Then, of course, gdb.base/options.exp is
adjusted.
Doing this exposed a couple latent bugs, which is what the other gdb
changes in the patch are for:
- in the var_enum case, without the change, we'd end up with a null
enum argument, and print:
"-enum (null)"
- The get_ulongest change is necessary to avoid advancing PP in a
case where we end up throwing an error, e.g., when parsing "11x".
Without the change the operand pointer shown by "maint show
test-options-completion-result" would be left pointing at "x"
instead of "11x".

Introduce the "with" command
( See original discussion and prototype here:
https://sourceware.org/ml/gdb-patches/2019-05/msg00570.html )
(gdb) help with
Temporarily set SETTING to VALUE, run COMMAND, and restore SETTING.
Usage: with SETTING [VALUE] [-- COMMAND]
Usage: w SETTING [VALUE] [-- COMMAND]
With no COMMAND, repeats the last executed command.
SETTING is any setting you can change with the "set" subcommands.
E.g.:
with language pascal -- print obj
with print elements unlimited -- print obj
As can be seen above, the "with" command is just like "set", but
instead of setting the setting permanently, it sets the setting, runs
a command and then restores the setting.
(gdb) p g_s
$1 = {a = 1, b = 2, c = 3}
(gdb) with language ada -- print g_s
$2 = (a => 1, b => 2, c => 3)
Warning: the current language does not match this frame.
(gdb) show language
The current source language is "auto; currently c".
(gdb) with print elements 100 -- with print object on -- print 1
$3 = 1
You can shorten things a bit though, as long as unambiguous. So this:
(gdb) with print elements 100 -- with print object off -- print 1
is the same as:
(gdb) w p el 100 -- w p o 0 -- p 1
Note that the patch adds a "w" alias for "with", as "w" is not
currently taken:
(gdb) w
Ambiguous command "w": watch, wh, whatis, where, while, while-stepping, winheight, ws.
Let me know if you'd prefer to reserve "w" for one of the other
commands above. IMHO, this command will end up being used frequently
enough that it deserves the "w" shorthand.
A nice feature is that this is fully integrated with TAB-completion:
(gdb) with p[TAB]
pagination print prompt python
(gdb) with print [TAB]
address max-depth static-members
array max-symbolic-offset symbol
array-indexes null-stop symbol-filename
asm-demangle object symbol-loading
demangle pascal_static-members thread-events
elements pretty type
entry-values raw union
frame-arguments repeats vtbl
inferior-events sevenbit-strings
(gdb) with print [TAB]
(gdb) with print elements unlimited -- thread apply all -[TAB]
-ascending -c -q -s
(gdb) with print elements unlimited -- print -[TAB]
-address -max-depth -repeats -vtbl
-array -null-stop -static-members
-array-indexes -object -symbol
-elements -pretty -union
The main advantage of this new command compared to command options,
like the new "print -OPT", is that this command works with any
setting, and, it works nicely when you want to override a setting
while running a user-defined command, like:
(gdb) with print pretty -- usercmd
The disadvantage is that it isn't as compact or easy to type. I think
of command options and this command as complementary. I think that
even with this new command, it makes sense to continue developing the
command options in the direction of exposing most-oft-used settings as
command options.
Inspired by Philippe's "/" command proposal, if no command is
specified, then the last command is re-invoked, under the overridden
setting:
(gdb) p g_s
$1 = {a = 1, b = 2, c = 3}
(gdb) with language ada
$2 = (a => 1, b => 2, c => 3)
Warning: the current language does not match this frame.
Note: "with" requires "--" to separate the setting from the command.
It might be possible to do without that, but, I haven't tried it yet,
and I think that this can go in without it. We can always downgrade
to making "--" optional if we manage to make it work.
On to the patch itself, the implementation of the command is simpler
than one might expect. A few details:
- I factored out a bit from pipe_command into repeat_previous
directly, because otherwise I'd need to copy&paste the same code and
same error message in the with command.
- The parse_cli_var_uinteger / parse_cli_var_zuinteger_unlimited /
do_set_command changes are necessary since we can now pass an empty
string as argument.
- do_show_command was split in two, as a FIXME comment suggests, but
for a different reason: we need to get a string version of a "set"
command's value, and we already had code for that in
do_show_command. That code is now factored out to the new
get_setshow_command_value_string function.
- There's a new "maint with" command added too:
(gdb) help maint with
Like "with", but works with "maintenance set" variables.
Usage: maintenance with SETTING [VALUE] [-- COMMAND]
With no COMMAND, repeats the last executed command.
SETTING is any setting you can change with the "maintenance set"
subcommands.
"with" and "maint with" share 99% of the implementation.
This might be useful on its own, but it's also useful for testing,
since with this, we can use the "maint set/show test-settings"
settings for exercising the "with" machinery with all the command
type variants (all enum var_types). This is done in the new
gdb/base/with.exp testcase.
The documentation bits are originally based on Philippe's docs for the
"/" command, hence the attribution in the ChangeLog.

This patch fixes a bug in the AArch64 assembler where an incorrect structural load/store by element instruction would generate the wrong error message.
For example, when provided with the (incorrect) instruction
st4 {v0.16b-v3.16b}[4],[x0]
currently assembler provides the following error message
"Error: comma expected between operands at operand 2 -- `st4 {v0.16b-v3.16b}[4],[x0]'".
This was due to the assembler consuming the {v0.16b-v3.16b} as the first operand leaving
[4],[x0] as what it believed to be the second operand.
The actual error is that the first operand should be of element type and not
vector type (as provided). The new diagnostic for this error is
"Error: expected element type rather than vector type at operand 1 -- `st4 {v0.16b-v3.16b}[4],[x0]'.
Added testcases to check for the correct diagnostic message as well as checking that
variations of the structural load/store by element instruction also generate the error

libctf: deduplicate and sort the string table
ctf.h states:
> [...] the CTF string table does not contain any duplicated strings.
Unfortunately this is entirely untrue: libctf has before now made no
attempt whatsoever to deduplicate the string table. It computes the
string table's length on the fly as it adds new strings to the dynamic
CTF file, and ctf_update() just writes each string to the table and
notes the current write position as it traverses the dynamic CTF file's
data structures and builds the final CTF buffer. There is no global
view of the strings and no deduplication.
Fix this by erasing the ctf_dtvstrlen dead-reckoning length, and adding
a new dynhash table ctf_str_atoms that maps unique strings to a list
of references to those strings: a reference is a simple uint32_t * to
some value somewhere in the under-construction CTF buffer that needs
updating to note the string offset when the strtab is laid out.
Adding a string is now a simple matter of calling ctf_str_add_ref(),
which adds a new atom to the atoms table, if one doesn't already exist,
and adding the location of the reference to this atom to the refs list
attached to the atom: this works reliably as long as one takes care to
only call ctf_str_add_ref() once the final location of the offset is
known (so you can't call it on a temporary structure and then memcpy()
that structure into place in the CTF buffer, because the ref will still
point to the old location: ctf_update() changes accordingly).
Generating the CTF string table is a matter of calling
ctf_str_write_strtab(), which counts the length and number of elements
in the atoms table using the ctf_dynhash_iter() function we just added,
populating an array of pointers into the atoms table and sorting it into
order (to help compressors), then traversing this table and emitting it,
updating the refs to each atom as we go. The only complexity here is
arranging to keep the null string at offset zero, since a lot of code in
libctf depends on being able to leave strtab references at 0 to indicate
'no name'. Once the table is constructed and the refs updated, we know
how long it is, so we can realloc() the partial CTF buffer we allocated
earlier and can copy the table on to the end of it (and purge the refs
because they're not needed any more and have been invalidated by the
realloc() call in any case).
The net effect of all this is a reduction in uncompressed strtab sizes
of about 30% (perhaps a quarter to a half of all strings across the
Linux kernel are eliminated as duplicates). Of course, duplicated
strings are highly redundant, so the space saving after compression is
only about 20%: when the other non-strtab sections are factored in, CTF
sizes shrink by about 10%.
No change in externally-visible API or file format (other than the
reduction in pointless redundancy).

by GCC and the sys/sdt.h header file about how to represent a probe
argument that lives in a register in 32-bit programs. I'll use
Andrew's example on the bug to illustrate the problem.
libstdc++ has a probe named "throw" with two arguments. On i386, the
probe is:
stapsdt 0x00000028 NT_STAPSDT (SystemTap probe descriptors)
Provider: libstdcxx
Name: throw
Location: 0x00072c96, Base: 0x00133d64, Semaphore: 0x00000000
Arguments: 4@%si 4@%di
I.e., the first argument is an unsigned 32-bit value (represented by
the "4@") that lives on %si, and the second argument is an unsigned
32-bit value that lives on %di. Note the discrepancy between the
argument size reported by the probe (32-bit) and the register size
being used to store the value (16-bit).
However, if you take a look at the disassemble of a program that uses
this probe, you will see:
00072c80 <__cxa_throw@@CXXABI_1.3>:
72c80: 57 push %edi

72ccc: 66 90 xchg %ax,%ax
72cce: 66 90 xchg %ax,%ax
Note how the program is actually using %edi, and not %di, to store the
second argument. This is the problem here.
GDB will basically read the probe argument, then read the contents of
%di, and then cast this value to uint32_t, which causes the wrong
value to be obtained. In the gdb.base/stap-probe.exp case, this makes
GDB read the wrong memory location, and not be able to display a test
string. In Andrew's example, this causes GDB to actually stop at a
"catch throw" when it should actually have *not* stopped.
After some discussion with Frank Eigler and Jakub Jelinek, it was
decided that this bug should be fixed on the client side (i.e., the
program that actually reads the probes), and this is why I'm proposing
this patch.
The idea is simple: we will have a gdbarch method, which, for now, is
only used by i386. The generic code that deals with register operands
on gdb/stap-probe.c will call this method if it exists, passing the
current parse information, the register name and its number.
The i386 method will then verify if the register size is greater or
equal than the size reported by the stap probe (the "4@" part). If it
is, we're fine. Otherwise, it will check if we're dealing with any of
the "extendable" registers (like ax, bx, si, di, sp, etc.). If we
are, it will change the register name to include the "e" prefix.
I have tested the patch here in many scenarios, and it fixes Andrew's
bug and also the regressions I mentioned before, on
gdb.base/stap-probe.exp. No regressions where found on other tests.

Fix crash when using PYTHONMALLOC=debug (PR python/24742)
This bug was originally reported against Fedora GDB:
https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=
1723564
The problem is that GDB will crash in the following scenario:
- PYTHONMALLOC=debug or PYTHONDEVMODE=1 is set.
- The Python debuginfo is installed.
- GDB is used to debug Python.
The crash looks like this:
$ PYTHONMALLOC=debug gdb -args python3 -c pass
GNU gdb (GDB) Fedora 8.3-3.fc30

Because memory is corrupted at the start, the count of bytes requested
may be bogus, and checking the trailing pad bytes may segfault.
The 8 pad bytes at tail=0x706483999ad1f330 are Segmentation fault (core dumped)
It's hard to determine what happens, but after doing some
investigation and talking to Victor Stinner I found that GDB should
not use the Python memory allocation functions before the Python
interpreter is initialized (which makes sense). However, we do just
that on python/python.c:do_start_initialization:
...
progsize = strlen (progname.get ());
progname_copy = (wchar_t *) PyMem_Malloc ((progsize + 1) * sizeof (wchar_t));
...
/* Note that Py_SetProgramName expects the string it is passed to
remain alive for the duration of the program's execution, so
it is not freed after this call. */
Py_SetProgramName (progname_copy);
...
Py_Initialize ();
PyEval_InitThreads ();
Upon reading the Python 3 C API documentation, I
found (https://docs.python.org/3.5/c-api/memory.html):
To avoid memory corruption, extension writers should never try to
operate on Python objects with the functions exported by the C
library: malloc(), calloc(), realloc() and free(). This will result in
mixed calls between the C allocator and the Python memory manager with
fatal consequences, because they implement different algorithms and
operate on different heaps. However, one may safely allocate and
release memory blocks with the C library allocator for individual
purposes[...]
And Py_SetProgramName seems like a very simple call that doesn't need
a Python-allocated memory to work on. So I'm proposing this patch,
which simply replaces PyMem_Malloc by xmalloc.
Testing this is more complicated. First, the crash is completely
non-deterministic; I was able to reproduce it 10 times in a row, and
then I wasn't able to reproduce it anymore. I found that if you
completely remove your build directory and rebuild GDB from scratch,
you can reproduce it again confidently. And with my patch, I
confirmed that the bug doesn't manifest even in this situation.
No regressions found.
OK to apply?

Handle either order of name and linkage name
We discovered that the Ada support in gdb depends on the order of the
DW_AT_name and DW_AT_linkage_name attributes in the DWARF. In
particular, if they are emitted in the "wrong" order for some system
symbols, "catch exception" will not work.
This patch fixes this problem by arranging to always prefer the
linkage name if both exist. This seems to be what the full symbol
reader already does -- that is, this is another bug arising from
having two different DWARF readers.
Another possible issue here is that gdb still doesn't really preserve
mangled names properly. There's a PR open about this. However, this
seems to be somewhat involved to fix, which is why this patch
continues to work around the bigger issue.

Plugin target handling
This patch fixes failures with LTO on mingw32 targets. Since git
commit
7cf7fcc83c all possible targets (minus binary) are matched in
bfd_check_format_matches rather than lower priority targets being
excluded once a higher priority target matches. During linking that
results in the ld/plugin.c plugin_object_p function being called with
the input file xvec set to plugin_vec, which means
plugin_get_ir_dummy_bfd doesn't see the real format of the file
(pe-i386). It defaults to the output format instead, which happens to
be pei-i386, and this wrong choice persists for the dummy bfd.
pei-i386 isn't recognised as a valid linker input file.
So, omit recognizing a plugin object in bfd_check_format_matches when
some other object format matches, and make sure those other object
formats are checked first.
