PR remote/15455 - QTro remote packet broken
In the function remote_trace_set_readonly_regions in gdb/remote.c, the
local variable 'offset' does not account for "QTro" at the start of
the packet with the result that if there are any read-only regions,
the packet is sent -- but without the "QTro" -- causing the remote
stub to report that the packet is unsupported:
We don't see the problem when testing with GDBserver, as that supports
qXfer:trace-frame-info:read, meaning GDBserver never needs to read
from the read-only sections directly itself. This commit adds a test
that explicitly disables qXfer:trace-frame-info:read.

move sparc-sol-thread.c back into sol-thread.c.
The routines in sparc-sol-thread used to be SPARC-specific (and
documented as such in the ptrace man page), and therefore hosting them
in a sparc-specific file made sense. However, newer versions of
Solaris now use those callbacks (Solaris 10 Update 10, apparently),
and thus the note about these callbacks being specific to SPARC
was removed.
So this patch deletes sparc-sol-thread.c and moves the code back
inside sol-thread.c.

Anyway, the fix is simple and Andrew himself provided it for us. It
took a while for me to figure out how to trigger the bug (in order to
write a testcase for it), but I finally made it.

according to the “info regs” output (TOP=7):
which is clearly wrong (just count its length). The problem is due to
the printf statement (see patch) printing a promoted integer value of
a char argument "raw[i]", and, since char is signed on x86-64
GNU/Linux, the erroneous “ffffff” are printed for the first three

A related issue is that the "commands" command actually supports
setting commands to a range of breakpoints/tracepoints at once. But,
hacking "maint info breakpoints" to print t->step_count, reveals:
(gdb) trace main

(gdb) trace main

(gdb)
that tracepoint 6 doesn't end up with the correct step_count.
validate_actionline is never called for tracepoints other than the
first (the copy_command_lines path). Right below, we have:
/* If a breakpoint was on the list more than once, we don't need to
do anything. */
if (b->commands != info->cmd)
{
validate_commands_for_breakpoint (b, info->cmd->commands);
incref_counted_command_line (info->cmd);
decref_counted_command_line (&b->commands);
b->commands = info->cmd;
observer_notify_breakpoint_modified (b);
}
And validate_commands_for_breakpoint looks like the right place to put
a call; if we reset step_count there too, we have a nice central fix
for the first issue as well, because trace_actions_command calls
breakpoint_set_commands that also calls
validate_commands_for_breakpoint.
We end up calling validate_actionline twice for the first tracepoint,
since read_command_lines calls it too, through
check_tracepoint_command, but that should be harmless.

was applied, the "set listsize" command was a var_integer command, and
"unlimited" was set with 0. Internally, var_integer maps 0 to INT_MAX
case var_integer:
{
...
if (val == 0 && c->var_type == var_integer)
val = INT_MAX;
The change in that patch to zuinteger_unlimited command, meant that -1
is left as -1 in the command's control variable (lines_to_list), and
the code in source.c isn't expecting that -- it only expects positive
numbers.
I previously suggested fixing the code and keeping the new behavior,
but I found that "set listsize 0" is currently used in the wild, and
we do have a bunch of other commands where "0" means unlimited, so I'm
thinking that changing this command alone in isolation is not a good
idea.
So I now strongly prefer reverting back the behavior in 7.6 to the
same behavior the command has had since 2006 (0==unlimited, -1=error).
Before that, set listsize -1 would be accepted as unlimited as well.
After 7.6 is out, in mainline, we can get back to reconsidering
changing this command's behavior, if there's a real need for being
able to suppress output. For now, let's play it safe.
The "list line 1 with unlimited listsize" test in list.exp was
originally written years and years ago expecting 0 to mean "no
output", but GDB never actually worked that way, even when the tests
were written, so the tests had been xfailed then. This patch now
adjusts the test to the new behavior, so that the test actually
passes, and the xfail is removed.

Forbid set history size (INT_MAX..UINT_MAX)
The whole readline interface is signed, and works with the 0..INT_MAX
range.
We don't allow setting the size to UINT_MAX directly. The documented
user visible interface is "use 0 for unlimited". The UINT_MAX
representation is an implementation detail we could change, e.g., by
keeping a separate flag for "unlimited", which is actually what the
readline interface does (stifled vs non stifled). Generically
speaking, exposing this detail to clients of the interface may make
our lives complicated when we find the need to extend the range of
some command in the future, and it's better if users
(frontends/scripts) aren't relying on anything but what we tell them
to use for "unlimited". Making values other than 0 error out is the
way to prevent users from using those ranges inappropriately. Quite
related, note:
(gdb) set history size 0xffffffff
integer 4294967295 out of range
But,
(gdb) set history size 0xfffffffe
(gdb) show history size
The size of the command history is unlimited.
(gdb) set history size 0x100000000
integer 4294967296 out of range
If values over INT_MAX are accepted as unlimited, then there's no good
argument for only accepting [INT_MAX..UINT_MAX) as valid "unlimited"
magic numbers, while not accepting [UINT_MAX..inf).
Making the setting's control variable of different type (unsigned int)
of the rest of the related code (int) adds the need to recall that one
variable among all these is unsigned, and that one need to think about
whether these comparisons are signed or unsigned, along with the
promotion/conversion rules. Since this is an easy to forget detail,
this patch renames the variable to at least make it more obvious that
this variable is not one of GNU history's public int variables, which
are all signed. We don't actually need the only code that presently
is affected by this, though, the code that is computing the current
history's length. We can just use GNU history's history_length
instead:
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Variable: int history_length
The number of entries currently stored in the history list.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
/* Return the history entry which is logically at OFFSET in the history array.
OFFSET is relative to history_base. */
HIST_ENTRY *
history_get (offset)
int offset;
{
int local_index;
At the time this code was added (gdb 4.13 ~1994), 'history_length' was
extern, but not documented in readline's GNU history documents, so I
guess it wasn't considered public then and the loop was the
workaround.
One of the warts of GDB choosing 0 to mean unlimited is that "set
history size 0" behaves differently from 'HISTSIZE=0 gdb'. The latter
leaves GDB with no history, while the former means "unlimited"...
$ HISTSIZE=0 ./gdb
...
(gdb) show history size
The size of the command history is 0.
We shouldn't really change what HISTSIZE=0 means, as bash, etc. also
handle 0 as real zero, and zero it's what really makes sense.

sim: rewrite SIM_AC_OPTION_HARDWARE a bit to simplify things
There's no need to put the majority of the logic into the 3rd arg of the

So pull the logic out of the 3rd arg and outside of the AC_ARG_ENABLE

that followed the macro, and fix bugs related to the new dv-sockser in
