GDB deprecated the commands "show/set mpx bound" in GDB 15.1, as Intel
listed Intel(R) Memory Protection Extensions (MPX) as removed in 2019.
MPX is also deprecated in gcc (since v9.1), the linux kernel (since v5.6)
and glibc (since v2.35). Let's now remove MPX support in GDB completely.
This includes the removal of:
- MPX functionality including register support
- deprecated mpx commands
- i386 and amd64 implementation of the hooks report_signal_info and
get_siginfo_type
- tests
- and pretty printer.
We keep MPX register numbers to not break compatibility with old gdbservers.

gdb: testsuite: Test whether PC register is expedited in gdb.server/server-run.exp
One thing GDB always does when the inferior stops is finding out where
it's stopped at, by way of querying the value of the program counter
register.
To save a packet round trip, the remote target can send the PC
value (often alongside other frequently consulted registers such as the
stack pointer) in the stop reply packet as an "expedited register".
Test that this is actually done for the targets where gdbserver is
supposed to.
Extend the "maintenance print remote-registers" command output with an
"Expedited" column which says "yes" if the register was seen by GDB in
the last stop reply packet it received, and is left blank otherwise.
Tested for regressions on aarch64-linux-gnu native-extended-remote.
The testcase was tested on aarch64-linux-gnu, i686-linux-gnu and

[gdb] Handle SIGTERM in run_events
While reviewing "catch (...)" uses I came across:
...
for (auto &item : local)
{
try
{
item ();
}
catch (...)
{
/* Ignore exceptions in the callback. */
}
}
...
This means that when an item throws a gdb_exception_forced_quit,
the exception is ignored and following items are executed.
Fix this by handling gdb_exception_forced_quit explicity, and immediately
rethrowing it.
I wondered about ^C, and couldn't decide whether current behaviour is ok, so
I left this alone, but I made the issue explicit in the source code.
As for the "catch (...)", I think that it should let a non-gdb_exception
propagate, so I've narrowed it to "catch (const gdb_exception &)".
My rationale for this is as follows.
There seem to be a few ways that "catch (...)" is allowed in gdb:
- clean-up and rethrow (basically the SCOPE_EXIT pattern)
- catch and handle an exception from a call into an external c++ library
Since we're dealing with neither of those here, we remove the "catch (...)".
The is patch adds a new ld build-id computation mode, "xx", using
xxhash in its 128-bit mode. The patch prereqs the xxhash-devel
headers being installed, and uses the "all-inlined" model, so no
run-time or link-time library dependence exists.
The xxhash mode performs well, saving roughly 20% of total userspace
run time from an ld job over a 800MB shared library relative to sha1.
128 bits of good hash should be collision-resistant to a number of
distinct binaries that numbers in the 2**32 - 2**64 range, even if not
"crypto" level hash. Confirmations of this are in progress.
ld/configury: add --with-xxhash mode, different from gdb case
because only using it in inline mode
ld/ldbuildid.c: add "xx" mode, #if WITH_XXHASH
ld/NEWS, ld.texi: mention new option
ld/lexsup.c: add enumeration of --build-id STYLES to --help

[gdb/python] Add gdbpy_handle_gdb_exception
I've recently committed two patches:
- commit 2f8cd40c37a ("[gdb/python] Use GDB_PY_HANDLE_EXCEPTION more often")
- commit fbf8e4c35c2 ("[gdb/python] Use GDB_PY_SET_HANDLE_EXCEPTION more often")
which use the macros GDB_PY_HANDLE_EXCEPTION and GDB_PY_SET_HANDLE_EXCEPTION
more often, with the goal of making things more consistent.
Having done that, I wondered if a better approach could be possible.
Consider GDB_PY_HANDLE_EXCEPTION:
...
/* Use this in a 'catch' block to convert the exception to a Python
exception and return nullptr. */
#define GDB_PY_HANDLE_EXCEPTION(Exception) \
do { \
gdbpy_convert_exception (Exception); \
return nullptr; \
} while (0)
...
The macro nicely codifies how python handles exceptions:
- setting an error condition using some PyErr_Set* variant, and
- returning a value implying that something went wrong
presumably with the goal that using the macro will mean not accidentally:
- forgetting to return on error, or
- returning the wrong value on error.
The problems are that:
- the macro hides control flow, specifically the return statement, and
- the macro hides the return value.
For example, when reading somewhere:
...
catch (const gdb_exception &except)
{
GDB_PY_HANDLE_EXCEPTION (except);
}
...
in order to understand what this does, you have to know that the macro
returns, and that it returns nullptr.
Add a template gdbpy_handle_gdb_exception:
...
template<typename T>
[[nodiscard]] T
gdbpy_handle_gdb_exception (T val, const gdb_exception &e)
{
gdbpy_convert_exception (e);
return val;
}
...
which can be used instead:
...
catch (const gdb_exception &except)
{
return gdbpy_handle_gdb_exception (nullptr, except);
}
...
[ Initially I tried this:
...
template<auto val>
[[nodiscard]] auto
gdbpy_handle_gdb_exception (const gdb_exception &e)
{
gdbpy_convert_exception (e);
return val;
}
...
with which the usage is slightly better looking:
...
catch (const gdb_exception &except)
{
return gdbpy_handle_gdb_exception<nullptr> (except);
}
...
but I ran into trouble with older gcc compilers. ]
While still a single statement, we now have it clear:
- that the statement returns,
- what value the statement returns.
[ FWIW, this could also be handled by say:
...
- GDB_PY_HANDLE_EXCEPTION (except);
+ GDB_PY_HANDLE_EXCEPTION_AND_RETURN_VAL (except, nullptr);
...
but I still didn't find the fact that it returns easy to spot.
Alternatively, this is the simplest form we could use:
...
return gdbpy_convert_exception (e), nullptr;
...
but the pairing would not necessarily survive a copy/paste/edit cycle. ]
Also note how making the value explicit makes it easier to check for
consistency:
...
catch (const gdb_exception &except)
{
return gdbpy_handle_gdb_exception (-1, except);
}
if (PyErr_Occurred ())
return -1;
...
given that we do use the explicit constants almost everywhere else.
Compared to using GDB_PY_HANDLE_EXCEPTION, there is the burden now to specify
the return value, but I assume that this will be generally copy-pasted and
therefore present no problem.
Also, there's no longer a guarantee that there's an immediate return, but I
assume that nodiscard making sure that the return value is not silently
ignored is sufficient mitigation.
For now, re-implement GDB_PY_HANDLE_EXCEPTION and GDB_PY_SET_HANDLE_EXCEPTION
in terms of gdbpy_handle_gdb_exception.

[gdb/symtab] Don't expand non-Ada CUs for info exceptions
I noticed when running test-case gdb.ada/info_exc.exp with glibc debug info
installed, that the "info exceptions" command that lists all Ada exceptions
also expands non-Ada CUs, which includes CUs in
/lib64/ld-linux-x86-64.so.2 and /lib64/libc.so.6.
Fix this by:
- adding a new lang_matcher parameter to the expand_symtabs_matching
function, and
- using that new parameter in the expand_symtabs_matching call in
ada_add_global_exceptions.
The new parameter is a hint, meaning implementations are free to ignore it and
expand CUs with any language. This is the case for partial symtabs, I'm not
sure whether it makes sense to implement support for this there.
Conversely, when processing a CU with language C and name "<artificial>"
(as produced by GCC LTO), the CU may not really have a single language and we
should ignore the lang_matcher. See also commit d2f67711730
("Fix 'catch exception' with -flto").
Now that we have lang_matcher available, also use it to limit name splitting
styles and symbol matchers to those applicable to the matched languages.
Without this patch we have (with a gdb build with -O0):
...

Even more so than image relative (RVA) relocations, section relative

[gdb/testsuite] Fix failure in gdb.threads/signal-sigtrap.exp
The test-case gdb.threads/signal-sigtrap.exp:
- installs a signal handler called sigtrap_handler for SIGTRAP,
- sets a breakpoint on sigtrap_handler, and
- expects the breakpoint to trigger after issuing "signal SIGTRAP".
Usually, that happens indeed:
...
(gdb) signal SIGTRAP^M
Continuing with signal SIGTRAP.^M
^M
Thread 1 "signal-sigtrap" hit Breakpoint 2, sigtrap_handler (sig=5)^M
28 }^M
(gdb) PASS: $exp: sigtrap thread 1: signal SIGTRAP reaches handler
...
Occasionally, I run into this failure on openSUSE Tumbleweed:
...
(gdb) signal SIGTRAP^M
Continuing with signal SIGTRAP.^M
^M
Thread 1 "signal-sigtrap" received signal SIGTRAP, Trace/breakpoint trap.^M
__pthread_create_2_1 () at pthread_create.c:843^M
(gdb) FAIL: $exp: sigtrap thread 1: signal SIGTRAP reaches handler
...
AFAIU, the problem is in the situation that is setup before issuing that
command, by running to a breakpoint in thread_function:
...
void *thread_function (void *arg) {
return NULL;
}
int main (void) {
pthread_t child_thread;
signal (SIGTRAP, sigtrap_handler);
pthread_create (&child_thread, NULL, thread_function, NULL);
pthread_join (child_thread, NULL);
return 0;
}
...
In the passing case, thread 2 is stopped in thread_function, and thread 1 is
stopped somewhere in pthread_join:
...
(gdb) info threads^M
Id Target Id Frame ^M
1 Thread ... (LWP ...) "signal-sigtrap" __futex_abstimed_wait_common64 ()
* 2 Thread ... (LWP ...) "signal-sigtrap" thread_function ()
...
In the failing case, thread 2 is stopped in thread_function, but thread 1 is
stopped somewhere in pthread_create:
...
(gdb) info threads^M
Id Target Id Frame ^M
1 Thread ... (LWP ...) "signal-sigtrap" __GI___clone3 ()
* 2 Thread ... (LWP ...) "signal-sigtrap" thread_function ()
...
What I think happens is that pthread_create blocks SIGTRAP at some point, and
if the "signal SIGTRAP" command is issued while that is the case, the signal
becomes pending and consequently there's no longer a guarantee that the signal
will be delivered to the inferior.
Instead the signal will be handled by gdb like this:
...
(gdb) info signals SIGTRAP
Signal Stop Print Pass to program Description
SIGTRAP Yes Yes No Trace/breakpoint trap
...
Fix this by adding a barrier that ensures that pthread_create is done before
we issue the "signal SIGTRAP" command.
Likewise in test-case gdb.threads/signal-command-handle-nopass.exp.
Using the fixed test-case, I tested my theory by explicitly blocking SIGTRAP:
...
+ sigset_t old_ss, new_ss;
+ sigemptyset (&new_ss);
+ sigaddset (&new_ss, SIGTRAP);
+ sigprocmask (SIG_BLOCK, &new_ss, &old_ss);
+
/* Make sure that pthread_create is done once the breakpoint on
thread_function triggers. */
pthread_barrier_wait (&barrier);
pthread_join (child_thread, NULL);
+ sigprocmask (SIG_SETMASK, &old_ss, NULL);
...
and managed to reproduce the same failure:
...

[gdb/testsuite] Make parse_args error out on remaining args

proc parse_args { argset } {
parse_list 2 args $argset "-" false
# The remaining args should be checked to see that they match the
# number of items expected to be passed into the procedure
}
...
We could add the missing check in mi_make_breakpoint, but I think the problem
is likely to occur again because the name parse_args does not suggest that
further action is required.
Fix this instead by:
- copying proc parse_args to new proc parse_some_args,
- adding new proc check_no_args_left, and
- calling check_no_args_left in parse_args.
Also be more strict in a few places where we do lassign for remaining args:
...
lassign $args a b
...
There may be more arguments left in $args, so check that that's not the case
using check_no_args_left:
...
set args [lassign $args a b]
check_no_args_left
...
Fix a few test-cases that trigger on the stricter checking.

Without changing any environment variables, the value of the index-cache dir
is:

$ gdb -q -batch -ex "show index-cache directory"
The directory of the index cache is "/home/linux/.cache/gdb".

and the expectation of the test-case is that setting HOME to empty will
produce an empty dir, but what it actually produces is:
...
$ HOME= gdb -q -batch -ex "show index-cache directory"
The directory of the index cache is "/home/linux/.cache/gdb".
...
There's nothing wrong with that behaviour, the dir is simply constructed using
XDG_CACHE_HOME which happens to be explictly set to its default value
$HOME/.cache [1]:
...
$ echo $XDG_CACHE_HOME
/home/linux/.cache

$ XDG_CACHE_HOME= HOME= gdb -q -batch -ex "show index-cache directory"
gdb: warning: Couldn't determine a path for the index cache directory.
The directory of the index cache is "".
...
Furthermore, the test-case assumption that setting variables to empty either
produces the original dir or an empty dir is incorrect.
Say that XDG_CACHE_HOME has a non-default value:
...
$ echo $XDG_CACHE_HOME
/home/linux/my-xdg-cache-home
$ gdb -q -batch -ex "show index-cache directory"
The directory of the index cache is "/home/linux/my-xdg-cache-home/gdb".

then setting that variable to empty:
...
$ XDG_CACHE_HOME= gdb -q -batch -ex "show index-cache directory"
The directory of the index cache is "/home/linux/.cache/gdb".

does change the value of the dir.
Fix this by making the test-case less specific.

With the previous commits, the only thing entangling elf and coff file
reading with dbx file reading is the functions
{elf|coff}stab_build_psymtabs, defined in dbxread.c. These functions
depend on dbx_symfile_read.
To solve this, I renamed read_stabs_symtab to read_stabs_symtab_1, and
created a function with the original name that does what
dbx_symfile_read used to do.
This way, dbx_symfile_read can just call read_stabs_symtab, and the elf
and coff psymtab builders can also call it directly, fully disentangling
the readers, which would allow us to selectively not compile dbxread in
the future.
gdb: Move read_dbx_symtab to stabsread, and rename to read_stabs_symtab
Despite the name, read_dbx_symtab is not only used for the dbx file
format (also called the aout format). It is used by elf and coff
implicitly as well. So I think it makes more sense to have this function
in the generic stabsread file, so that reading elf files or coff files
depends less on GDB's ability to read dbx files.
There were 11 static functions in dbxread that were onlyl helper
functions, they were moved and kept as static in stabsread.c. Notably,
dbx_read_symtab - which is installed as a callback on legacy_psymtab
for aout, elf and coff at least - has been moved to stabsread.c and
renamed as well; the function that is specific to aout is
dbx_symfile_read, and that hasn't been moved.
Some macros had to be moved as well, but since they are still used
in dbxread, they were moved to the .h file that the struct symloc
is declared, so anyone can properly use the struct.
gdb: Move dbx_end_psymtab to stabsread, and rename to stabs_end_psymtab
This function is used by multiple stabs readers (even if not all), and
the comment in stabsread.h even acknowledges it. I believe that the
comment is incorrect in saying that the function should be in dbxread
because not everyone uses it. If any one reader other than dbx uses
it, the function should be in stabsread, in my opinion.
This commit makes also renames the function to stabs_end_psymtab since,
again, this is not specific to dbx/aout format.
struct symloc had to be moved because stabs_end_psymtab dereferences
symloc objects, so stabsread.c must be aware of the full struct.
The function process_one_symbol was defined in the file dbxread.c, but
this function is used by all file formats that handle stabs debug
information. It makes much more sense for it to be in the stabsread.c
file instead.
To move that function, many other static functions had to be moved from
dbxread. A few were only used by process_one_symbol, so they're still
static, but most were used by other functions still in dbxread, so they
are being exported by stabsread.h
Finally, the registry entry has been moved as well, seeing as it was
already exported by gdb-stabs.h, and stabsread.c will need it to
properly use the newly added function.
With this change, reading mdebug files is totally independent of reading
dbx.
The file dbxread.c, which is responsible for reading stabs information
for multiple file formats, relies heavily on setting and using global
variables over the course of reading symbols.
Future patches aim to make stabs reading more file format independent,
and this patch starts that change by introducing a stabs_context struct,
that will hold all the relevant variables. This context struct is saved
on the registry key inside the objfile being read. Some of those global
variables have been deemed irrelevant:
* dbxread_objfile - Since we're saving in an objfile, this is redundant
* symfile_bfd - It is trivial to get the bfd pointer from the objfile,
so also unnecessary
* string_table_offset - was never initialized, just used to set a value.
That usage was substituted by a hardcoded 0
* next_file_string_table_offset - was only used by read_dbx_symtab, so
it was turned into a local variable there.
As I was moving variables, I also couldn't think of a good reason for
the bincl_list to be a pointer, so it was changed to just be an
std::vector.
gdb/testsuite: rework bp-cond-failure to not depend on inlining
The test gdb.base/bp-cond-failure is implicitly expecting that the
function foo will be inlined twice and gdb will be able to find 2
locations to place a breakpoint. When clang is used, gdb only finds
one location which causes the test to fail. Since the test is not
worried about handling breakpoints on inlined functions, but rather on
the format of the message on a breakpoint condition fail, this seems
like a false fail report.
This commit reworks the test to be in c++, and uses function overloading
to ensure that 2 locations will always be found. Empirical testing
showed that, for clang, we will land on location 2 with the currest exp
commands, no matter the order of the functions declared, whereas for gcc
it depends on the order that functions were declared, so they are
ordered to always land on the second location, this way we are able to
hardcode it and check for it.

gdb/testsuite: skip gdb.mi/dw2-ref-missing-frame.exp with clang
The test gdb.mi/dw2-ref-missing-frame.exp uses the old-school way to set
debug information by hand, using a .S file and assembly labels to get
addresses. Unfortunately, clang will always re-arrange the global labels
to be side by side, making high and low PC for CUs and functions be the
same, and thus they will all be empty ranges. This makes the test fail,
since we never technically enter the functions that we want to check.
This commit skips that test when using clang. If we ever port this test
to use the dwarf assembler, we can reenable it with clang.
gdb/testsuite: fix gdb.mi/mi-var-cp.exp with clang
The inline tests in gdb.mi/mi-var-cp.cc were failing when using clang to
run the test. This happened because inline tests want to step past the C
statements and then run the TCL tests, but in mi-var-cp.cc the statement
to be stepped past is "return s2.i;". Since clang links the epilogue
information to the return statement, not the closing brace,
single-stepping past return had us exiting the function - which made the
expressions invalid.
This commit fixes this by making the function have 2 C statements, and
the return one be after all inline tests, so we know GDB won't leave the
function before running the create_varobj tests.
gdb/testsuite: fix gdb.mi/mi-catch-cpp-exceptions.exp with clang
Clang adds line table information for a try/catch block differently to
gcc. Instead of linking the instructions related to __cxa_begin_catch to
the line containing the "catch" statement in the source code, it links
to the closing brace of the try block.
This was causing gdb.mi/mi-catch-cpp-exceptions.exp to fail when tested
with clang. The test was updated to have the catch in the same line as
the closing brace so it passes with no additional modifications with
clang.
MIPS/GAS: Discard redundant instruction from DDIV/DREM macros
A sequence such as:
li at,-1
bne xx,at,0f
li at,1
dsll32 at,at,0x1f
is produced in the expansion of the DDIV and DREM assembly macros, where
a redundant `li at,1' instruction is used to load an intermediate value
of 1 into $at, which is then left-shifted by 63 with `dsll32 at,at,0x1f'
yielding 0x8000000000000000. However this value likewise results from
left-shifting the value of -1, already present in $at at this point.
Remove the extraneous instruction then, shortening the sequence emitted.
Adjust dumps in the testsuite accordingly.
MIPS/GAS/testsuite: Print instructions in hex in division tests
Add `--show-raw-insn' to division tests so as to verify branch offsets
without the need to know actual offsets into the text section individual
instructions have been assembled at. Add `-z' where applicable to make
interlock NOP instructions appear in output so as to verify them without
the need to know the offsets too. Replace individual offsets to match
against with generic patterns so that a change in the expansion of an
assembly macro does not affect code that follows.
MIPS/opcodes: Rework documentation for instruction args
Rewrite the inline documentation for the characters used in the `args'
member of `struct mips_opcode' to make it consistent in terms of style
and formatting. Discard references to inexistent macros.

[gdb/symtab] Revert "Change handling of DW_TAG_enumeration_type in DWARF scanner"
After adding dwarf assembly to test-case gdb.dwarf2/enum-type.exp that adds
this debug info:

I run into an assertion failure:

Reading symbols from enum-type...^M
cooked-index.h:214: internal-error: get_parent: \
Assertion `(flags & IS_PARENT_DEFERRED) == 0' failed.^M
...
This was reported in PR32160 comment 1.
This is a regression since commit 4e417d7bb1c ("Change handling of
DW_TAG_enumeration_type in DWARF scanner").
Fix this by reverting the commit.
[ Also drop the kfails for PR31900 and PR32158, which are regressions by that
same commit. ]
That allows us to look at the output of "maint print objfiles", and for val1
we get an entry without parent:
...
[27] ((cooked_index_entry *) 0x7fbbb4002ef0)
name: val1
canonical: val1
qualified: val1
DWARF tag: DW_TAG_enumerator
flags: 0x0 []
DIE offset: 0x124
parent: ((cooked_index_entry *) 0)
...
which is incorrect, as noted in that same comment, but an improvement over the
assertion failure, and I don't think that ever worked. This is to be
addressed in a follow-up patch.
Reverting the commit begs the question: what was it trying to fix in the first
place, and do we need a different fix? I've investigated this and filed
PR32160 to track this.
My guess is that the commit was based on a misunderstand of what we track
in cooked_indexer::m_die_range_map.
Each DIE has two types of parent DIEs:
- a DIE that is the parent as indicated by the tree structure in which DIEs
occur, and
- a DIE that represent the parent scope.
In most cases, these two are the same, but some times they're not.
The debug info above demonstrates such a case. The DIE at 0x11f:
- has a tree-parent: the DIE representing the CU, and
- has a scope-parent: DIE 0x12c representing namespace ns.
In cooked_indexer::m_die_range_map, we track scope-parents, and the commit
tried to add a tree-parent instead.
So, I don't think we need a different fix, and propose we backport the reversal
for gdb 15.2.

This is a regression since commit 4e417d7bb1c ("Change handling of
DW_TAG_enumeration_type in DWARF scanner").
Reverting the commit on current trunk fixes the problem.
So how does this problem happen?
First, let's consider the current trunk, with the commit reverted.
Gdb looks for the entry ns::A::val1, and find this entry:
...
[29] ((cooked_index_entry *) 0x7f7830002ef0)
name: val1
canonical: val1
qualified: ns::A::val1
DWARF tag: DW_TAG_enumerator
flags: 0x0 []
DIE offset: 0x15a
parent: ((cooked_index_entry *) 0x7f7830002ec0) [A]
...
and expands the corresponding CU val1.c containing this debug info:
...
<2><14a>: Abbrev Number: 3 (DW_TAG_class_type)
<14b> DW_AT_name : A
<14d> DW_AT_byte_size : 1

<151> DW_AT_encoding : 7 (unsigned)
<152> DW_AT_byte_size : 4
<153> DW_AT_type : <0x163>
<159> DW_AT_accessibility: 1 (public)
<4><15a>: Abbrev Number: 5 (DW_TAG_enumerator)
<15b> DW_AT_name : val1
<15f> DW_AT_const_value : 1
<4><160>: Abbrev Number: 0
<3><161>: Abbrev Number: 0
<2><162>: Abbrev Number: 0
...
after which it finds ns::A::val1 in the expanded symtabs.
Now let's consider the current trunk as is (so, with the commit present).
Gdb looks for the entry ns::A::val1, but doesn't find it because the val1
entry is missing its parent:
...
[29] ((cooked_index_entry *) 0x7f5240002ef0)
name: val1
canonical: val1
qualified: val1
DWARF tag: DW_TAG_enumerator
flags: 0x0 []
DIE offset: 0x15a
parent: ((cooked_index_entry *) 0)
...
Then gdb looks for the entry ns::A, and finds this entry:
...
[3] ((cooked_index_entry *) 0x7f5248002ec0)
name: A
canonical: A
qualified: ns::A
DWARF tag: DW_TAG_class_type
flags: 0x0 []
DIE offset: 0xdd
parent: ((cooked_index_entry *) 0x7f5248002e90) [ns]
...
which corresponds to this debug info, which doesn't contain val1
due to -fno-eliminate-unused-debug-types:
...
<2><dd>: Abbrev Number: 3 (DW_TAG_class_type)
<de> DW_AT_name : A
<e0> DW_AT_byte_size : 1
<2><e3>: Abbrev Number: 0
...
Gdb expands the corresponding CU main.c, after which it doesn't find
ns::A::val1 in the expanded symtabs.
The root cause of the problem is the missing parent on the val1
cooked_index_entry, but this only becomes user-visible through the
elaborate scenario above.
Add a test-case gdb.dwarf2/enum-type-c++.exp that contains a regression test
for this problem that doesn't rely on expansion state or
-feliminate-unused-debug-types, but simply tests for the root cause by
grepping for ns::A::val1 in the output of "maint print objfile".

Update more types for section index change
Commit f89276a2f3e ("change type of `general_symbol_info::m_section`

section index from short to int. However, it seems incomplete, in
that there are uses of the section index that use the type 'short'.
This patch fixes the ones I found, first by searching for
"short.*sect" and then by looking at all the callers of section_index

Fix quoting in gdb-add-index.sh
When the filename quoting change was merged into the AdaCore tree, we
saw a regression in a test setup that uses the DWARF 5 index (that is
running gdb-add-index), and a filename with a space in it.
Initially I thought this was a change in the 'file' command -- but
looking again, I found out that 'file' has worked this way for a
while, and our immediate error was caused by the (documented) change
to "save gdb-index".
While I'm not sure why this test was working previously, it seems to
me that gdb-add-index.sh requires a change to quote the arguments to
"file" and "save gdb-index".
While working on this, though, it seemed to me that multiple other
spots needed quoting for the script to work correctly. And, I was
unable to get quoting working correctly in the objcopy calls, so I
split it into multiple different invocations.

gdb/solib: use owning_intrusive_list for solib list
Functions implementing `solib_ops::current_sos` return a list of solib
object, transferring the ownership to their callers. However, the
return type, `intrusive_list<solib>`, does not reflect that.
Also, some of these functions build these lists incrementally, reading
this from the target for each solib. If a target read were to throw,
for instance, the already created solibs would just be leaked.
Change `solib_ops::current_sos` to return an owning_intrusive_list to
address that. Change `program_space::so_list` to be an
owning_intrusive_list as well. This also saves us doing a few manual
deletes.
Change-Id: I6e4071d49744874491625075136c59cce8e608d4 Reviewed-by: Keith Seitz <keiths@redhat.com>
It occured to me that `intrusive_list<solib>`, as returned by
`solib_ops::current_sos`, for instance, is not very safe. The
current_sos method returns the ownership of the solib objects
(heap-allocated) to its caller, but the `intrusive_list<solib>` type
does not convey it. If a function is building an
`intrusive_list<solib>` and something throws, the solibs won't
automatically be deleted. Introduce owning_intrusive_list to fill this
gap.
Interface
---------
The interface of owning_intrusive_list is mostly equivalent to
intrusive_list, with the following differences:
- When destroyed, owning_intrusive_list deletes all element objects.
The clear method does so as well.
- The erase method destroys the removed object.
- The push_front, push_back and insert methods accept a `unique_ptr<T>`
(compared to `T &` for intrusive_list), taking ownership of the
object.
- owning_intrusive_list has emplace_front, emplace_back and emplace
methods, allowing to allocate and construct an object directly in the
list. This is really just a shorthand over std::make_unique and
insert (or push_back / push_front if you don't care about the return
value), but I think it is nicer to read:
These methods are not `noexcept`, since the allocation or the
constructor could throw.
- owning_intrusive_list has a release method, allowing to remove an
element without destroying it. The release method returns a
pair-like struct with an iterator to the next element in the list
(like the erase method) and a unique pointer transferring the
ownership of the released element to the caller.
- owning_intrusive_list does not have a clear_and_dispose method, since
that is typically used to manually free items.
Implementation
--------------
owning_intrusive_list privately inherits from intrusive_list, in order
to re-use the linked list machinery. It adds ownership semantics around
it.
Testing
-------
Because of the subtle differences in the behavior in behavior and what
we want to test for each type of intrusive list, I didn't see how to
share the tests for the two implementations. I chose to copy the
intrusive_list tests and adjust them for owning_intrusive_list.
The verify_items function was made common though, and it tries to
dereference the items in the list, to make sure they have not been
deleted by mistake (which would be caught by Valgrind / ASan).
