Make a few functions work with base_breakpoint instead of breakpoint
This makes tracepoints inherit from base_breakpoint, since their
locations are code locations. If we do that, then we can eliminate
tracepoint::re_set and tracepoint::decode_location, as they are doing
the same as the base_breakpoint implementations.
With this, all breakpoint types created by new_breakpoint_from_type
are code breakpoints, i.e., base_breakpoint subclasses, and thus we
can make it return a base_breakpoint pointer.
Finally, init_breakpoint_sal can take a base_breakpoint pointer as
"self" pointer too. This will let us convert this function to a
base_breakpoint ctor in a following patch.

PowerPC: Make test gdb.arch/powerpc-power10.exp Endian independent.
The .quad statement stores the 64-bit hex value in Endian order. When used
to store a 64-bit prefix instructions on Big Endian (BE) systems, the .quad
statement stores the 32-bit suffix followed by the 32-bit prefix rather
than the expected order of prefix word followed by the suffix word. GDB
fetches 32-bits at a time when disassembling instructions. The disassembly
on BE gets messed up since GDB fetches the suffix first and interprets it
as a word instruction not a prefixed instruction. When gdb fetches the
prefix part of the instruction, following the initial suffix word, gdb
associates the prefix word incorrectly with the following 32-bits as the
suffix for the instruction when in fact it is the following instruction.
For example on BE we have two prefixed instructions stored using the
.quad statement as follows:
addr word GDB action
---------------------------------------------
1 suffix inst A <- GDB interprets as a word instruction
2 prefix inst A <- GDB uses this prefix with
3 suffix inst B <- this suffix rather than the suffix at addr 1.
4 prefix inst B
This patch changes the .quad statement into two .longs to explicitly store
the prefix followed by the suffix of the instruction.
The patch rearranges the instructions to put all of the word instructions
together followed by the prefix instructions for clarity.
The patch has been tested on Power 10 and Power 7 BE and LE to verify
the change works as expected.

add a trie to map quickly from address range to compilation unit
When using perf to profile large binaries, _bfd_dwarf2_find_nearest_line()
becomes a hotspot, as perf wants to get line number information
(for inline-detection purposes) for each and every sample. In Chromium
in particular (the content_shell binary), this entails going through
475k address ranges, which takes a long time when done repeatedly.
Add a radix-256 trie over the address space to quickly map address to
compilation unit spaces; for content_shell, which is 1.6 GB when some
(but not full) debug information turned is on, we go from 6 ms to
0.006 ms (6 µs) for each lookup from address to compilation unit, a 1000x
speedup.
There is a modest RAM increase of 180 MB in this binary (the existing
linked list over ranges uses about 10 MB, and the entire perf job uses
between 2–3 GB for a medium-size profile); for smaller binaries with few
ranges, there should be hardly any extra RAM usage at all.

gdb/doc: make use of group/end group in 'info pretty-printers' example
The 'info pretty-printers' example is pretty long and consists of many
commands and their output.
Currently, when the pdf manual is generated this example spans a
page-break, with the page-break falling part way through some example
output from GDB.
This commit breaks up the example using @group .... @end group, within
each group is a single GDB command and all its output.
Now, when the pdf manual is created, the page-break is placed after
the output of one GDB command, and before the subsequent command, this
looks much nicer.
gdb/doc: fix inconsistent info pretty-printer example
The example for 'info pretty-printer' in the manual passes an
object-regexp in some cases, but presents output as though no
object-regexp was passed.
This commit fixes the two mistakes, in one case, fixing the output to
filter based on object-regexp, and in the other, to remove the
object-regexp from the command and leave all the output.
The problem is that we're passing an empty string_view to
IS_ABSOLUTE_PATH. IS_ABSOLUTE_PATH accesses [0] on that string_view,
which is out-of-bounds.
The reason this is not seen with -std less than c++17 is that our local
copy of string_view (used with C++ < 17) does not have the assert in
operator[], as that wouldn't work in a constexpr method:
IS_ABSOLUTE_PATH is normally used with null-terminated string. It's
fine to pass an empty null-terminated string to IS_ABSOLUTE_PATH,
because index 0 in such a string is valid. But not with an empty
string_view.
Fix that by avoiding the "call" to IS_ABSOLUTE_PATH if the string_view
is empty.

don't over-align file positions of PE executable sections
When a sufficiently small alignment was specified via --file-alignment,
individual section alignment shouldn't affect placement within the file.
This involves first of all clearing D_PAGED for images when section and
file alignment together don't permit paging of the image. The involved
comparison against COFF_PAGE_SIZE in turn helped point out (through a
compiler warning) that 'page_size' should be of unsigned type (as in

error condition (which is being deleted).
For the D_PAGED case I think the enforced file alignment may still be
too high, but I'm wary of changing that logic without knowing of

recorded in section headers anyway. Otherwise there are e.g. anomalies

section flags to executables") in that linking would use information a

conversion is further tied to # being a line comment character, anything

cannot use get_absolute_expression(), as this may raise errors. Open-
code the function instead, treating everything not resulting in
O_constant as a comment as well.
Furthermore also bounds-check the parsed value. This bounds check tries
to avoid implementation defined behavior (which may be the raising of an
implementation defined signal), but for now makes the assumption that
int has less than 64 bits. The way bfd_signed_vma (which is what offsetT

Remove unused field cooked_index::m_start
cooked_index::m_start is unused and can be removed. I think this was
a leftover from a previous approach in the index finalization code,

Implement pid_to_exec_file for Windows in gdbserver
I noticed that gdbserver did not implement pid_to_exec_file for
Windows, while gdb did implement it. This patch moves the code to
nat/windows-nat.c, so that it can be shared. This makes the gdbserver
implementation trivial.

Constify target_pid_to_exec_file
This changes target_pid_to_exec_file and target_ops::pid_to_exec_file
to return a "const char *". I couldn't build many of these targets,
but did examine the code by hand -- also, as this only affects the
return type, it's normally pretty safe. This brings gdb and gdbserver
a bit closer, and allows for the removal of a const_cast as well.

Do not double-read minimal symbols for PE COFF
This changes coffread.c to avoid re-reading minimal symbols when

Tested using the AdaCore internal test suite on Windows. I also did

Fix "gdb --write" with core files
If you load a core file into GDB with the --write option, or "set
write on" (equivalent), and then poke memory expecting it to patch the
core binary, you'll notice something odd -- the write seems to
succeed, but in reality, it doesn't. The value you wrote doesn't
persist. Like so:
$ gdb -q --write -c testsuite/outputs/gdb.base/patch/gcore.test
[New LWP 615986]
Core was generated by `/home/pedro/gdb/build/gdb/testsuite/outputs/gdb.base/patch/patch'.
Program terminated with signal SIGTRAP, Trace/breakpoint trap.
#0 0x0000555555555131 in ?? ()
(gdb) p *(unsigned char *)0x0000555555555131 = 1
$1 = 1 '\001'
(gdb) p *(unsigned char *)0x0000555555555131
$2 = 185 '\271'
(gdb)
Diffing hexdumps of before/after patching, reveals that a "0x1" was
actually written somewhere in the file. The problem is that the "0x1"
was written at the wrong offset in the file...
That happens because _bfd_elf_set_section_contents does this to seek
to the section's offset:
... and 'hdr->sh_offset' is zero, so we seek to just OFFSET, which is
incorrect. The reason 'hdr->sh_offset' is zero is that
kernel-generated core files normally don't even have a section header
table (gdb-generated ones do, but that's more an accident than a
feature), and indeed elf_core_file_p doesn't even try to read sections
at all:
/* Core files are simply standard ELF formatted files that partition
the file using the execution view of the file (program header table)
rather than the linking view. In fact, there is no section header
table in a core file.
The process status information (including the contents of the general
register set) and the floating point register set are stored in a
segment of type PT_NOTE. We handcraft a couple of extra bfd sections
that allow standard bfd access to the general registers (.reg) and the
floating point registers (.reg2). */
bfd_cleanup
elf_core_file_p (bfd *abfd)
Changing _bfd_elf_set_section_contents from:
pos = hdr->sh_offset + offset;
to:
pos = section->filepos + offset;
fixes it. If we do that however, the tail end of
_bfd_elf_set_section_contents ends up as a copy of
_bfd_generic_set_section_contents, so just call the latter, thus
eliminating some duplicate code.
New GDB testcase included, which exercises both patching an executable
and patching a core file. Patching an executable already works
without this fix, because in that case BFD reads in the sections
table. Still, we had no testcase for that yet. In fact, we have no
"set write on" testcases at all, this is the first one.
Tested on x86-64 GNU/Linux, gdb, ld, binutils, and gas.

[gdb/testsuite] Fix gdb.cp/break-f-std-string.cc with older gcc
When running test-case gdb.cp/break-f-std-string.exp on openSUSE Leap 15.3

...

No symbol "string" in namespace "std".^M

The same for gcc 8.2.1, but it passes with gcc 9.3.1.
At source level (as we can observe in the .ii file with -save-temps) we have
indeed:
...
namespace std {
namespace __cxx11 {
typedef basic_string<char> string;
}
}
...
while with gcc 9.3.1, we have instead:
...
namespace std {
namespace __cxx11 {
...
}
typedef basic_string<char> string;
}
...
due to gcc commit 33b43b0d8cd ("Define std::string and related typedefs
outside __cxx11 namespace").
Fix this by adding the missing typedef for gcc version 5 (the first version to
have the dual abi) to 8 (the last version missing aforementioned gcc commit).

Make gdb.ada/float-bits.exp more generic
There are assumptions in the test about the long double format
being used. While the results are OK for i387 128-bit long doubles, it
is not correct for IEEE quad 128-bit long doubles.
Also, depending on the target (64-bit/32-bit), long doubles may not
be available at all. And it may be the case that the compiler for a 64-bit
target doesn't support 128-bit long doubles, but GDB might still support it
internally.
Lastly, not every long double format has invalid values. Some formats
consider all values as valid floating point numbers.
These divergences cause the following FAIL's on aarch64/arm:
FAIL: gdb.ada/float-bits.exp: print val_long_double
FAIL: gdb.ada/float-bits.exp: print val_long_double after assignment
With the above in mind, extend the test a little so it behaves well on
different architectures and so it works with different long double
formats.
Main changes:
- Use long double values appropriate for the long double format.
- Test long double assignment to compiler-generated long
double variables.
- Test long double assignment to GDB internal variables.
Tested on x86_64 (16 PASS), i686 (16 PASS), aarch64 (12 PASS) and arm (9 PASS).

- the test-case contains a hardcoded "DW_LNS_advance_pc 1" which causes the
breakpoint pointing in the middle of an insn
- the FAIL triggers on aarch64-linux, but not on x86_64-linux, because the
test-case uses 'main_label' as the address of the first and only valid entry
in the line table, and:
- on aarch64-linux, there's no prologue, so main_label and main coincide,
while
- on x86_64-linux, there's a prologue, so main_label is different from main.
Fix these problems by:
- eliminating the use of "DW_LNS_advance_pc 1", and using
"DW_LNE_set_address $main_end" instead, and
- eliminating the use of main_label, using "DW_LNE_set_address $main_start"
