gdb/testsuite: add text_segment option to gdb_compile
LLVM's lld linker doesn't have the "-Ttext-segment" option, but
"--image-base" can be used instead.
To centralize the logic of checking which option is supported, add the
text_segment option to gdb_compile. Change tests that are currently
using -Ttext-segment to use that new option instead.

05c06f318fd9 Linux: Access memory even if threads are running

The existing comment:
/* Neither ptrace nor /proc/PID/mem allow accessing memory through a

... is incorrect for /proc/PID/mem does allow that.
Actually, from GDB's perspective, GDBserver could already access
memory while threads were running, but at the expense of pausing all
threads for the duration of the memory access, via
prepare_to_access_memory. This new implementation does not require
pausing any thread, thus
linux_process_target::prepare_to_access_memory /
linux_process_target::done_accessing_memory become nops. A subsequent
patch will remove the whole prepare_to_access_memory infrastructure
completely.
The GDBserver linux-low.cc implementation is simpler than GDB's
linux-nat.c's, because GDBserver always adds the unfollowed vfork/fork
children to the process list immediately when the fork/vfork event is
seen out of ptrace. I.e., there's no need to keep the file descriptor
stored on a side map, we can store it directly in the process
structure.

gdbserver: special case target_write_memory len==0
The next patch in this series adds a common helper routine for both
memory reads and writes, like this:
static int
proc_xfer_memory (CORE_ADDR memaddr, unsigned char *readbuf,
const gdb_byte *writebuf, int len)
{
gdb_assert ((readbuf == nullptr) != (writebuf == nullptr));
...
}

linux_process_target::read_memory (CORE_ADDR memaddr,
unsigned char *myaddr, int len)

}
linux_process_target::write_memory (CORE_ADDR memaddr,
const unsigned char *myaddr, int len)
{
return proc_xfer_memory (memaddr, nullptr, myaddr, len);
}
Surprisingly, the assertion fails. That happens because it can happen
that target_write_memory is called with LEN==0, due to this in
gdb/remote.c:
/* Determine whether the remote target supports binary downloading.
This is accomplished by sending a no-op memory write of zero length
to the target at the specified address. (...) */
void
remote_target::check_binary_download (CORE_ADDR addr)
{
...
p = rs->buf.data ();
*p++ = 'X';
p += hexnumstr (p, (ULONGEST) addr);
*p++ = ',';
p += hexnumstr (p, (ULONGEST) 0);
*p++ = ':';
*p = '\0';
In this scenario, in gdbserver's target_write_memory, the "myaddr"
argument of the_target->write_memory is passed the data() of a local
gdb::byte_vector (which is a specialized std::vector). It's valid for
std::vector::data() to return NULL when the vector is empty.
This commit adds an early return to target_write_memory to avoid
target backends having to care about this. For good measure, do the
same on the read side, in read_inferior_memory.

Ignore 0,0 entries in .debug_aranges

scenario, gdb assumes the entries are terminated and then proceeds to
reject the section because it reads a subsequent entry as if it were a

make check-read1 TESTS="gdb.dwarf2/calling-convention.exp"
The relevant part of the gdb.log file is:
return 35
Function 'foo' does not follow the target calling convention.
If you continue, setting the return value will probably lead to unpredictable behaviors.
Make foo return now? (y or n) PASS: gdb.dwarf2/calling-convention.exp: return 35
n

The issue is that when doing the test for "return 35", the DejaGnu test
sends "n" (to tell GDB not to perform the return action) but never
consumes the "Not confirmed" acknowledgment sent by GDB. Later, when
trying to do the next test, DejaGnu tries to match the leftover output
from the "return" test. As this output is not expected, the test fails.
Fix by using gdb_test to send the "n" answer and match the confirmation
and consume all output to the prompt.
Also do minor adjustments to the main regex:
- Remove the leading ".*" which is not required.
- Ensure that the "?" from the question is properly escaped.

We explicitly make cooked_index have a default move constructor and

cooked_index has a field of type auto_obstack, which isn't movable.
We don't actually need cooked_index to be movable at the moment, so

gdb: change subfile::line_vector to an std::vector
Change this field to an std::vector to facilitate memory management.
Since the linetable_entry array is copied into the symtab resulting from
the subfile, it is possible to change it without changing how symtab
stores the linetable entries (which would be a much larger change).
There is a small change in buildsym_compunit::record_line to avoid
accessing a now invalid linetable_entry. Before this patch, we keep a
pointer to the last linetable entry, pop it from the vector, and then
read last->line. It works with the manually-maintained array, but since
we now use std::vector::pop_back, I am afraid that it could be flagged
as an invalid access by the various static / dynamic analysis tools to
access the linetable_entry object after popping it from the vector.
Instead, record just the line number in an optional and use it.

I can't test them. I was hesitant to do this change because of that,
but I decided to send it anyway. I don't think that an almost dead
platform should hold back improving the code in the common parts of GDB.
The changes in xcoffread.c are:
- Make arrange_linetable "arrange" the linetable passed as a parameter,
instead of returning possibly a new one, possibly the same one.
- In the "Process main file's line numbers.", I'm not too sure what
happens. We get the lintable from "main_subfile", "arrange" it, but
then assign the result to the current subfile, obtained with
get_current_subfile. I assume that the current subfile is also the
main one, so now I just call arrange_linetable on the main subfile's
line table.
- Remove that weird "Useless if!!!" FIXME comment. It's been there
forever, but the "if" is still there, so I guess the "if" can stay

Introduce the new DWARF index class
This patch introduces the new DWARF index class. It is called
"cooked" to contrast against a "raw" index, which is mapped from disk
without extra effort.
Nothing constructs a cooked index yet. The essential idea here is
that index entries are created via the "add" method; then when all the
entries have been read, they are "finalize"d -- name canonicalization
is performed and the entries are added to a sorted vector.
Entries use the DWARF name (DW_AT_name) or linkage name, not the full
name as is done for partial symbols.
These two facets -- the short name and the deferred canonicalization
-- help improve the performance of this approach. This will become
clear in later patches, when parallelization is added.
Some special code is needed for Ada, because GNAT only emits mangled
("encoded", in the Ada lingo) names, and so we reconstruct the
hierarchical structure after the fact. This is also done in the
finalization phase.
One other aspect worth noting is that the way the "main" function is
found is different in the new code. Currently gdb will notice
DW_AT_main_subprogram, but won't recognize "main" during reading --
this is done later, via explicit symbol lookup. This is done
differently in the new code so that finalization can be done in the
background without then requiring a synchronization to look up the
symbol.

a static property of the DIE's abbrev. It also turns out that many
abbrevs imply a static size for the DIE data, and additionally that
for many abbrevs, the sibling offset is stored at a constant offset
from the start of the DIE.
This patch changes the abbrev reader to analyze each abbrev and stash
the results on the abbrev. These combine to speed up the new indexer.
If the "interesting" flag is false, GDB knows to skip the DIE
immediately. If the sibling offset is statically known, skipping can
be done without reading any attributes; and in some other cases, the
DIE can be skipped using simple arithmetic.

Introduce DWARF abbrev cache
The replacement for the DWARF psymbol reader works in a somewhat
different way. The current reader reads and stores all the DIEs that
might be interesting. Then, if it is missing a DIE, it re-scans the
CU and reads them all. This approach is used for both intra- and
inter-CU references.
I instrumented the partial DIE hash to see how frequently it was used:
[ 0] ->
1538165
[ 1] -> 4912
[ 2] -> 96102
[ 3] -> 175
[ 4] -> 244
That is, most DIEs are never used, and some are looked up twice -- but
this is just an artifact of the implementation of
partial_die_info::fixup, which may do two lookups.
Based on this, the new implementation doesn't try to store any DIEs,
but instead just re-scans them on demand. In order to do this,
though, it is convenient to have a cache of DWARF abbrevs. This way,
if a second CU is needed to resolve an inter-CU reference, the abbrevs
for that CU need only be computed a single time.

Fix latent bug in read_addrmap_from_aranges

The bug is that this code can erroneously reject .debug_aranges when

refer to a CU coming from the dwz file, the fix is to simply skip such
CUs in the loop.

Allow thread-pool.h to work without threads
thread-pool.h requires CXX_STD_THREAD in order to even be included.
However, there's no deep reason for this, and during review we found
that one patch in the new DWARF indexer series unconditionally
requires the thread pool.
Because the thread pool already allows a task to be run in the calling
thread (for example if it is configured to have no threads in the
pool), it seemed straightforward to make this code ok to use when host
threads aren't available at all.
This patch implements this idea. I built it on a thread-less host
(mingw, before my recent configure patch) and verified that the result
builds.
After the thread-pool change, parallel-for.h no longer needs any
CXX_STD_THREAD checks at all, so this patch removes these as well.

gas: further adjust file/line handling for .macro
Commit
7992631e8c0b ("gas/Dwarf: improve debug info generation from .irp
and alike blocks"), while dealing okay with actual assembly source files
not using .file/.line and alike outside but not inside of .macro, has
undue effects when the logical file/line pair was already overridden:
Line numbers would continuously increment while processing the expanded
macro, while the goal of the PR gas/16908 workaround is to keep the
expansion associated with the line invoking the macro. However, as soon
as enough state was overridden _inside_ the macro to cause as_where() to
no longer fall back top as_where_physical(), honor this by resuming the
bumping of the logical line number.
Note that from_sb_is_expansion's initializer was 1 for an unknown
reason. While renaming the variable and changing its type, also change
the initializer to "expanding_none", which would have been "0" in the
original code. Originally the initializer value itself wasn't ever used
anyway (requiring sb_index != -1), as it necessarily had changed in
input_scrub_include_sb() alongside setting sb_index to other than -1.
Strictly speaking input_scrub_insert_line() perhaps shouldn't use
expanding_none, yet none of the other enumerators fit there either. And
then strictly speaking that function probably shouldn't exist in the
first place. It's used only by tic54x.
