ld testsuite use of notarget
Much of the time it is better to use xfail rather than notarget to
hide a testsuite failure no one is planning on fixing.
1) When a target is fixed, an inappropriate xfail results in XPASS
whereas notarget is silent. Leaving in an inappropriate notarget
entry risks the bug reappearing later, silently.
2) Tests might be used as a template for a new test, carrying over
notarget and/or xfail. Inappropriate notarget entries are silent.
3) An xfailed test that mysteriously XPASSes might actually indicate a
bug.

gdb/riscv: Fix assertion in inferior call code
An assertion when setting up arguments for an inferior call checks the
size of the argument against xlen. However, if xlen and flen are
different sizes, and the argument is being placed into a floating

This issue shows up as an assertion failure when running on an rv32g

inferior call involving large floating point arguments, for example
the test gdb.base/infcall-nested-structs.exp.

MIPS/BFD: Do not redirect to discarded lazy binding stubs
Correct a MIPS/BFD linker issue with dynamic symbol and corresponding
GOT entry values being redirected to lazy binding stubs where the stubs
section has been discarded by assigning to the `/DISCARD/' output
section in the linker script used. The issue manifests itself by the
values entered being relative to the absolute section, which is what any
discarded sections are internally assigned in the linker.
For the `stub-dynsym-2.s' piece of code included as a test case with
this change this issue results in the dynamic symbol table and the GOT
looking like:
Symbol table '.dynsym' contains 3 entries:
Num: Value Size Type Bind Vis Ndx Name
0: 00000000 0 NOTYPE LOCAL DEFAULT UND
1: 00000010 0 FUNC GLOBAL DEFAULT UND bar

1: 0000000d 0 FUNC GLOBAL DEFAULT UND bar
2: 00000001 0 FUNC GLOBAL DEFAULT UND foo
if assembled to microMIPS code. Symbol values and GOT entries record
the offset into the inexistent stubs section and the ISA bit rather than
zero, which would be the case if a lazy binding stub was not used for
other reasons, such as the value of the symbol being taken for a purpose
other than making a function call (e.g. an R_MIPS_GOT16 relocation).
Correct the issue by refraining from redirecting symbols to lazy binding

Bring the LD implementation of `run_dump_test' in line with its binutils

of which has been prevented by means of one or more of `target',

The rationale behind this is that we want to have unsupported tests

the newly added tags to silently suppress the uninteresting variants.

gdb/testsuite: Allow for failure to read some memory addresses
In the gdb.base/examine-backward.exp test script, we check to see if
address zero is readable, and then read memory first forward from
address zero, and then backward from address zero.
The problem is, being able to read address zero does not guarantee
that you'll be able to read from the other end of the address space,
and the test probably shouldn't assume that is the case.
This patch updates the test script so that even if address zero is
known non-readable, we still run the tests, the tests in question are
mostly about, can GDB calculate the correct address to read from, we
can confirm this even if the final read ultimately fails. We also no
longer assume that if address zero is readable, then the other end of
the address space will be readable.
One further change is that, when we examined the memory at address
zero, the regexp used to match the address expected that the zero
address would have two '0' digits as the least significant digits. As
GDB strips leading zeros from addresses this was causing the test to
fail. I've reduced the zero address to a single 0 digit.

one of the incompatible input attributes is passed on to the output.
PowerPC tends to emit warnings rather than errors, and the output
takes the first input attribute. For example, if we have two input
files with Tag_GNU_Power_ABI_FP, the first with a value signifying
"double-precision hard float, IBM long double", the second with a
value signifying "double-precision hard float, IEEE long double",
we'll get a warning about incompatible long double types and the
output will say "double-precision hard float, IBM long double".
The output attribute of course isn't correct. It would be correct to
specify "IBM and IEEE long double", but we don't have a way to
represent that currently. While it would be possible to extend the
encoding, there isn't much gain in doing so. A shared library
providing support for both long double types should link against
objects using either long double type without warning or error. That
is what you'd get if such a shared library had no Tag_GNU_Power_ABI_FP
attribute.
So this patch provides a way for the backend to omit .gnu.attributes
tags from the output.

GDB PR tdep/8282: MIPS: Wire in `set disassembler-options'
Implement MIPS target support for passing options to the disassembler,
complementing commit 65b48a81404c ("GDB: Add support for the new
set/show disassembler-options commands.").
This includes options that expect an argument, so adjust the generic
code and data structures used so as to handle such options. So as to
give backends syntax flexibility no specific delimiter has been defined
to separate options from their respective arguments, so it has to be
included as the last character of the option name. Completion code
however has not been adjusted and consequently option arguments cannot
be completed at this time.
Also the MIPS target has non-empty defaults for the options, so that ABI
names for the general-purpose registers respect our `set mips abi ...'
setting rather than always being determined from the ELF headers of the
binary file selected. Handle these defaults as implicit options, never
shown to the user and always prepended to the user-specified options, so
that the latters can override the defaults.
The resulting output for the MIPS target is as follows:
(gdb) show disassembler-options
The current disassembler options are ''
The following disassembler options are supported for use with the
'set disassembler-options <option>[,<option>...]' command:
no-aliases Use canonical instruction forms.
msa Recognize MSA instructions.
virt Recognize the virtualization ASE instructions.
xpa Recognize the eXtended Physical Address (XPA) ASE
instructions.
ginv Recognize the Global INValidate (GINV) ASE instructions.
gpr-names=ABI Print GPR names according to specified ABI.

target, with minor formatting changes, most notably option argument
lists being wrapped, but also the amount of white space separating
options from the respective descriptions. The relevant part the new
code is now also used by `objdump --help', which means these formatting
changes apply to both outputs, except for argument list wrapping, which
is GDB-specific.
This also adds a separating new line between the heading and option
lists where descriptions are provided, hence:
(gdb) set architecture s390:31-bit
(gdb) show disassembler-options
The current disassembler options are ''
The following disassembler options are supported for use with the
'set disassembler-options <option>[,<option>...]' command:
esa Disassemble in ESA architecture mode
zarch Disassemble in z/Architecture mode
insnlength Print unknown instructions according to length from first two bits
(gdb)
but:
(gdb) set architecture powerpc:common
(gdb) show disassembler-options
The current disassembler options are ''
Existing affected target backends have been adjusted accordingly.
This has been verified manually with:
(gdb) set architecture arm
(gdb) set architecture powerpc:common
(gdb) set architecture s390:31-bit
to cause no issues with the `show disassembler-options' and `set
disassembler-options' commands. A test case for the MIPS target has
also been provided, covering the default settings with ABI overrides as
well as disassembler option overrides.

Then I built a simple universal binary. With git master BFD, I get:
$ ./doit ./universal-exe
die: not an archive
Jeff Muizelaar tracked this down to the BFD change for PR binutils/21787.
This patch changed bfd_generic_archive_p to sometimes reset the BFD's
"format" field.
However, simply changing bfd_generic_archive_p regressed the test case
in that bug.
Debugging PR binutils/21787 again, what I saw is that the mach-o
universal binary support acts like a bfd_archive but does not provide
a _close_and_cleanup function. However, if a BFD appears as an
archive member, it must always remove its own entry from its parent's
map. Otherwise, when the parent is destroyed, the already-destroyed
child BFD will be referenced. mach-o does not use the usual archive
member support, so simply using _bfd_archive_close_and_cleanup (as
other targets do) will not work.
This patch fixes the problem by introducing a new
_bfd_unlink_from_archive_parent function, then arranging for it to be
called in the mach-o case.
Ok?

gdb: Prefer RISC-V register name "s0" over "fp"
The "fp" register name is an alias for "s0" which is an alias for "x8".
The "fp" name is only understood by very recent Binutils and thus not
used by GCC. GCC does not emit a frame pointer with common optimization
options such as -Og or -O2.
It is still possible to use the "fp" register name, e.g.
BFD's bfd_get_mach () function returns a bfd specific value representing
the architecture of the target which is populated from the Tag_CPU_arch
build attribute value of that target. Among other users of that
interfacem, objdump which uses it to print the architecture version of
the binary being examinated and to decide what instruction is available
if run with "-m arm" via its own mapping from bfd_mach_arm_X values to
feature bits available.
However, both BFD and objdump's most recent known architecture is
Armv5TE. When encountering a newer architecture bfd_get_mach will return
bfd_mach_arm_unknown. This is unfortunate since objdump uses that value
to allow all instructions on all architectures which is already what it
does by default, making the "-m arm" trick useless.
This patch updates BFD and objdump's knowledge of Arm architecture
versions up to the latest Armv8-M Baseline and Mainline, Armv8-R and
Armv8.4-A architectures. Since several architecture versions (eg. 8.X-A)
share the same Tag_CPU_arch build attribute value and
bfd_mach_arm values, the mapping from bfd machine value to feature bits
need to return the most featureful feature bits that would yield the
given bfd machine value otherwise some instruction would not disassemble
under "-m arm" mode. The patch rework that mapping to make this clearer
and simplify writing the mapping rules. In particular, for simplicity
all FPU instructions are allowed in all cases.
Finally, the patch also rewrite the cpu_arch_ver table in GAS to use the
TAG_CPU_ARCH_X macros rather than hardcode their value.

Binutils documentation uses a mix of spelling for the compound word
"command-line X". According to [1]:
"Sometimes compound words are written separately (nail polish),
sometimes with a hyphen (short-sighted) and sometimes as one word
(eyelashes). Often new compounds are written as two separate words and,
as they become more familiar, they are either connected with a hyphen
(-) or made into one word."
I think command-line X is common enough in our industry that the two
workds command and line should be connected. Since command-line is more
common than commandline, I propose to update binutils documentation to
consistently use "command-line" when this is used as an adjective to a
noun (eg. command-line argument, command-line switch, command-line
option and command-line flag). I've left occurences of "the command
line" as is. I've also left gdb, sim and readline alone and have only
touched public documentation (texi and NEWS files).

Introduce @unless/@endunless and postbootstrap Makefile targets
This patch turns dependencies of non-bootstrap targets on bootstrap
targets for bootstrap builds into dependencies on stage_last. This
arrangement gets stage1-bubble to run from stage_last if we haven't
started a bootstrap yet, and to use the current stage otherwise. This
was already the case of target libs, just not of non-bootstrapped host
modules.
In order to retain preexisting dependencies in non-bootstrap builds,
or in gcc-less builds, this introduces support for @unless/@endunless
pairs in Makefile.in.
There is a remaining possibility of problem if activating, in a tree
configured for bootstrap, a parallel build of two or more modules, at
least one bootstrapped and one not. In this case, make might decide
to build stage_current and stage_last in parallel, the latter will
start a submake to build stage1 while the initial make, having
satisfied stage_current, proceeds to build the bootstrapped module in
non-bootstrapped configurations. The two builds will overlap and will
likely conflict. This situation does NOT arise in normal settings,
however: a post-bootstrap build of all-host all-target will indeed
activate such targets concurrently, but only after building all
bootstrapped modules successfully, and it will have both stage_last
and stage_current targets already satisfied, so the potential race
between builds will not arise.
Another remaining problem, that is slightly expanded with this patch,
is that of an interrupted build in a tree configured for bootstrap,
continued with a non-bootstrapped target. Target modules that were
not bootstrapped would already fail to complete the current stage when
activated explicitly in the command line for a retry; host modules,
however, would attempt to build their bootstrapped dependencies, which
is what led to the problem of concurrent builds addressed with this
patch. An interrupted or failed build might still recover correctly,
if the non-bootstrapped target is activated in both builds, because
then make will remove stage_last when its build command is
interrupted, so that it will attempt to recreate it with stage1-bubble
in the second try. A bootstrap build, however, will not be attempting
to build stage_last, so the file will remain and the retry won't go
through stage1-bubble. We have lived with that for target modules, so
we can probably live with that for host modules too.
Another undesirable consequence of this change is that non-boostrapped
host modules, in a tree configured for bootstrap, when activated as
make all-<module>, will build all of stage1 instead of only the
module's usual dependencies. This is intentional and necessary to fix
the parallel-build problem. If it's not desirable, disabling the
unnecessary bootstrap configuration will suffice to restore the
original set of dependencies.

x86_64-windows GDB crash due to fs_base/gs_base registers
GDB is currently crashing anytime we try to access the fs_base/gs_base
registers, either to read them, or to write them. This can be observed
under various scenarios:
- Explicit reference to those registers (eg: print $fs_base) --
probably relatively rare;
- Calling a function in the inferior, with the crash happening
because we are trying to read those registers in order to save
their value ahead of making the function call;
- Just a plain "info registers";
The crash was introduced by the following commit:
| commit 48aeef91c248291dd03583798904612426b1f40a
| Date: Mon Jun 26 18:14:43 2017 -0700
| Subject: Include the fs_base and gs_base registers in amd64 target descriptions.
The Windows-nat implementation was unfortunately not prepared to deal
with those new registers. In particular, the way it fetches registers
is done by using a table where the index is the register number, and
the value at that index is the offset in the area in the thread's CONTEXT
data where the corresponding register value is stored.
For instance, in amd64-windows-nat.c, we can find the mappings static
array containing the following 57 elements in it:
The problem is that fs_base's register number is 172, which is
well past the end of the mappings array (57 elements in total).
We end up getting an undefined offset, which happens to be so large
that it then causes the address where we try to read the register
value (a little bit later) to be invalid, thus crashing GDB with
a SEGV.
This patch side-steps the issue entirely by removing support for
those registers in GDB on x86_64-windows, because a look at the
CONTEXT structure indicates no support for getting those registers.
A more comprehensive fix would patch the potential buffer overflow
of the mappings array, but this can be done as a separate commit.

Improve alignment of "info threads" output, align "Target Id" column
It's long annoyed me that "info threads"'s columns are misaligned.
Particularly the "Target Id" column's content is usually longer than
the specified column width, so the table ends up with the "Frame"
column misaligned. For example, currently we get this:
(gdb) info threads
Id Target Id Frame
1 Thread 0x7ffff7fb5740 (LWP 9056) "threads" 0x00007ffff7bc28ad in __pthread_join (threadid=140737345763072, thread_return=0x7fffffffd3e8) at pthread_join.c:90
2 Thread 0x7ffff7803700 (LWP 9060) "function0" thread_function0 (arg=0x0) at threads.c:90
* 3 Thread 0x7ffff7002700 (LWP 9061) "threads" thread_function1 (arg=0x1) at threads.c:106
The fact that the "Frame" heading is in a weird spot is particularly
annoying.
This commit turns the above into into this:
(gdb) info threads
Id Target Id Frame
1 Thread 0x7ffff7fb5740 (LWP 7548) "threads" 0x00007ffff7bc28ad in __pthread_join (threadid=140737345763072, thread_return=0x7fffffffd3e8) at pthread_join.c:90
2 Thread 0x7ffff7803700 (LWP 7555) "function0" thread_function0 (arg=0x0) at threads.c:91
* 3 Thread 0x7ffff7002700 (LWP 7557) "threads" thread_function1 (arg=0x1) at threads.c:104
It does that by computing the max width of the "Target Id" column and
using that as column width when creating the table.
This results in calling target_pid_to_str / target_extra_thread_info /
target_thread_name twice for each thread, but I think that it doesn't
matter in practice performance-wise, because the remote target caches
the info, and with native targets it shouldn't be noticeable. It
could matter if we have many threads (say, thousands), but then "info
threads" is practically useless in such a scenario anyway -- better
thread filtering and aggregation would be necessary.
(Note: I have an old branch somewhere where I attempted at making
gdb's "info threads"-like tables follow a model/view design, so that a
general framework took care of issues like these, but it's incomplete
and a much bigger change. This patch doesn't prevent going in that
direction in the future, of course.)

remote & target_extra_thread_info, use cache w/ qThreadExtraInfo and qP too
The following patch will make "info threads" call target_extra_thread_info
more frequently. When I looked at the remote implementation, I noticed
that if we're not using qXfer:threads:read, then we'd be increasing the
remote protocol traffic. This commit prevents that from happening.
Also, it removes a gratuitous local static buffer, which seems good on
its own.
gdb/ChangeLog:

* remote.c (remote_target::extra_thread_info): Delete
'display_buf' and 'n' locals. from the cache, regardless of
packet mechanims is in use. Use cache for qThreadExtra and qP
methods too.
