Avoid double-decoding in ada_add_global_exceptions
I noticed that ada_add_global_exceptions calls ada_decode on
'search_name' -- and then passes this to name_matches_regex, which
also calls ada_decode.
name_matches_regex is also used later, where the result of
'natural_name ()' is passed to it -- but natural_name also calls
ada_decode.
So, I think the call to ada_decode in name_matches_regex is redundant.
This patch removes it, and turns name_matches_regex into an inner
function to avoid propagating its use.
Note that, right now, the DWARF implementation of
expand_symtabs_matching does not in fact pass an encoded name to this
callback. So, this code remains slightly (but currently harmlessly)
wrong. expand_symtabs_matching is fixed by another pending series of
mine.

gdb/testsuite: add test for memory requirements of gcore
For a long time, Fedora has been carrying an out-of-tree patch with a
similar test to the one proposed in this patch, that ensures that the
memory requirements don't grow with the inferior's memory. It's been
so long that the context for why this test exists has been lost, but
it looked like it could be interesting for upstream.
The test runs twice, once with the inferior allocating 4Mb of memory,
and the other allocating 64Mb. My plan was to find the rate at which
things increase based on inferior size, and have that tested to ensure
we're not growing that requirement accidentally, but my testing
actually showed memory requirements going down as the inferior increases,
so instead I just hardcoded that we need less than 2Mb for the command,
and it can be tweaked later if necessary.

type has "data" in its name. Others like "dwarf2_per_objfile" and

there's no need to specify it. It also makes the name a bit shorter,

In practice, this causes problems when disassembling code generated by

-> const -> enum will leave it with a 'const', which will error pointlessly,
annoying callers, who reasonably expect slices to be more invisible than
this. (The user-callable ctf_type_resolve still does not resolve away
slices, because this is the only way users can see that the slices are there
at all.)
This is induced by a fix for another wart: ctf_add_enumerator does not
resolve anything away at all, so you can't even add enumerators to const or
volatile enums -- and more problematically, you can't add enumerators to
enums with an explicit encoding without resolving away the types by hand,
since ctf_add_enum_encoded works by returning a slice! ctf_add_enumerator
now resolves away all of those, so any cvr-or-typedef-or-slice-qual
terminating in an enum can be added to, exactly as callers likely expect.
(New tests added.)

* ctf-create.c (ctf_add_enumerator): Resolve away cvr-qualness.
* ctf-types.c (ctf_type_resolve_unsliced): Don't terminate at

[gdb/testsuite] Fix gdb.base/nostdlib.exp on aarch64
On aarch64-linux, in test-case gdb.base/nostdlib.exp I run into:
...
(gdb) continue^M
Continuing.^M
warning: Temporarily disabling breakpoints for unloaded shared library \
"/lib/ld-linux-aarch64.so.1"^M
^M
Breakpoint 2, _start () at nostdlib.c:20^M
20 {^M
(gdb) FAIL: $exp: pie=pie: continue to marker
...
This happens as follows:
- the test-case sets a breakpoint on *_start,
- the breakpoint resolves to *_start in the executable,
- the executable is started, and the breakpoint resolves to *_start in the
dynamic linker,
- execution stops at *_start in the dynamic linker,
- the test-case issues a continue, expecting to continue to the breakpoint on
marker,
- while continuing, the dynamic linker is reported as unloaded,
- the breakpoint again resolves to *_start in the executable,
- execution stops at *_start in the executable, and
- the test-case concludes that it failed to "continue to marker".
This doesn't happen on x86_64-linux. There, after the executable is started,
the breakpoint again resolves to *_start in the exec.
This is similar to what happens when printing _start.
On aarch64-linux, we print the _start in the dynamic linker:
...
$ gdb -q -batch outputs/gdb.base/nostdlib/nostdlib-pie \
-ex "b _start" \
-ex run \
-ex "print _start" \
-ex "info break"
Breakpoint 1 at 0x2bc: file nostdlib.c, line 23.
Breakpoint 1.2, _start () at ../sysdeps/aarch64/dl-start.S:22
22 ENTRY (_start)
$1 = {void (void)} 0xfffff7fd6ac0 <_start>
Num Type Disp Enb Address What
1 breakpoint keep y <MULTIPLE>

1.1 y 0x0000aaaaaaaa02bc in _start at nostdlib.c:23
1.2 y 0x0000fffff7fd6ac0 in _start at dl-start.S:22
...
On x86_64-linux, we print the _start in the exec:
...
Breakpoint 1 at 0x2c5: file nostdlib.c, line 23.
Breakpoint 1.2, 0x00007ffff7fe4f00 in _start () from \
/lib64/ld-linux-x86-64.so.2
$1 = {void (void)} 0x5555555542c1 <_start>
Num Type Disp Enb Address What
1 breakpoint keep y <MULTIPLE>
breakpoint already hit 1 time
1.1 y 0x00005555555542c5 in _start at nostdlib.c:23
1.2 y 0x00007ffff7fe4f00 <_start>
...
The difference may be down to the availability of debug info for the _start in
the dynamic linker.
Finally, the described scenario on aarch64-linux is not deterministic. The
behavior depends on the dynamic linker being reported as unloaded, which has
been classified as a GLIBC bug, so that might get fixed.
Ideally this test-case would stop at both *_start in the executable and the
dynamic linker, but in absense of a way to specify this reliably (see PR32748),
fix this by making this a temporary breakpoint, ensuring that the breakpoint
will only trigger once.

gdb/dwarf: fix failed assertion in dwarf2_find_containing_comp_unit selftest
Commit 2f0521c0d6f6 ("gdb/dwarf: fix signature_type created with nullptr

verify that the passed dwarf2_per_bfd and dwarf2_section_info are not
nullptr. However, the dummy dwarf2_per_cu_data objects created in the
dwarf2_find_containing_comp_unit selftests are passed nullptr for those

I prefer to keep the asserts in place, as protection for the non-test

gas: sframe: partially process DWARF unwind info in CFI_escape
CFI_escape is most commonly used to include DWARF expressions in the
unwind information. One may also use CFI_escape to add OS-specific CFI
opcodes. Up until now, SFrame generation process would skip generating
SFrame FDE at the mere sight of a CFI_escape opcode.
Fine tune the handling of CFI_escape for SFrame generation by explicitly
checking for few "harmless" (in context of SFrame generation)
CFI_escape DWARF info:
- DW_CFA_expression affecting registers of no significance to SFrame
stack trace info
- DW_CFA_value_offset affecting registers of no significance to SFrame
stack trace info
Expose the current cfi_escape_data structure in dw2gencfi.c to the
relevant header file to allow SFrame generation APIs to use it too.
Valid unwind info may be split across multiple .cfi_escape directives.
Conversely, it is also allowed to simply put multiple DWARF expressions
and/or operations in a single .cfi_escape directive. Handling all of
these cases correctly will need parsing/processing that is not deemed
worth the effort in context of SFrame generation; We continue to skip
generating SFrame FDE for these cases and warn the user.
In future, SFrame stack trace format may support non-SP/FP as base
register (albeit in limited form). Add an explicit check in
sframe_xlate_do_escape_expr (to test against the current CFA register)
to ensure the functionality continues to work.
Use differentiated warning text in sframe_xlate_do_val_offset to avoid
confusion to the user as the same function is used for handling
.cfi_val_offset and .cfi_escape DW_CFA_val_offset,...
Also, add a common test with DWARF reg 12 which is non SP / FP on x86_64
and aarch64 (and s390x too).

(dwarf2_per_cu_data::section, really) in
fill_in_sig_entry_from_dwo_entry with the justification that the section
was already set when constructing the signatured_type. Well, that was
true except for one spot in lookup_dwp_signatured_type which passes a
nullptr section to add_type_unit.
Fix that by passing the section to add_type_unit in that one spot. This
is the same section that would have been set by
fill_in_sig_entry_from_dwo_entry before.
Add some asserts in the dwarf2_per_cu_data constructor to verity that
the passed dwarf2_per_bfd and dwarf2_section_info are non-nullptr.

This motivated me to convert the dwarf2_per_bfd::signatured_types hash
table to a gdb::unordered_set. This allows finding an entry by simply
passing the signature (an integer) and removes the need to create dummy
signatured_type objects.
There is one small unfortunate pessimization:
lookup_dwo_signatured_type, for instance, does a lookup by signature to
find an existing signatured_type. If not found, it adds a new one by
calling add_type_unit. The current code passes down the slot where to
put the new element, avoiding an extra hash when inserting the new
signatured_type. With the new code, I don't see a way to do that. This
is probably negligible, but it bugs me. If we used a map of signature
-> signatured_type, I would see a way, but then it would waste space.
I see one change in behavior, that is not really important IMO. In
read_comp_units_from_section, if duplicate signature type entries are
detected, the code prior to this patch overwrites the existing
signatured_type in the hash table with the new one. With this patch,
the existing signatured_type is kept: the call to emplace does not
insert the value if an existing equal value exists.
Other than that, no behavior change expected.

gdb: move "gdb:function_view" into quick-symbol.h typedefs
All users of these typedefs use them inside a gdb::function_view. Move
the gdb::function_view in the typedefs themselves. This shortens the
types in function signatures and helps with readability, IMO.
Rename them to remove the `_ftype` suffix: this suffix is not as
relevant in C++ as it was in C. With function_view, the caller can pass
more than just a simple "function". Anyway, I think it's clearer to
name them after the role the callback has (listener, matcher, etc).
Adjust some related comments.
