The bug is the typical gdb problem of a missing call to check_typedef.

The crash happens while processing the CREATE_PROCESS_DEBUG_EVENT
for the second run; in particular, we have in get_windows_debug_event:
| case CREATE_PROCESS_DEBUG_EVENT:
| [...]
| if (main_thread_id)
| windows_delete_thread (ptid_t (current_event.dwProcessId, 0,
| main_thread_id),
| 0);
The problem is that main_thread_id is the TID of the main thread from
the *previous* inferior, and this code is trying to delete that
thread. The problem is that it is constructing a PTID by pairing
the TID of the previous inferior with the PID of the new inferior.
As a result, when we dig inside windows_delete_thread to see
how it would handle that, we see...
| delete_thread (find_thread_ptid (ptid));
Since the PTID is bogus, we end up calling delete_thread with
a NULL thread_info. It used to be harmless, turning the delete_thread
into a nop, but the following change...
| commit 080363310650c93ad8e93018bcb6760ba5d32d1c
| Date: Thu Nov 22 16:09:14 2018 +0000
| Subject: Per-inferior thread list, thread ranges/iterators, down with ALL_THREADS, etc.
... changed delete_thread to get the list of threads from
the inferior, which itself is now accessed via the given
thread_info. This is the corresponding diff that shows the change:
As a result of this, passing a NULL thread_info is no longer
an option!
Stepping back a bit, the reason behind deleting the thread late
could be found in a patch from Dec 2003, which laconically explains:
| commit 87a45c96062d658ca83b50aa060a648bf5f5f1ff
| Date: Fri Dec 26 00:39:04 2003 +0000
|
| * win32-nat.c (get_child_debug_event): Keep main thread id around
| even after thread exits since Windows insists on continuing to
| report events against it.
A look at the gdb-patches archives did not provide any additional
clues (https://www.sourceware.org/ml/gdb-patches/2003-12/msg00478.html).
It is not clear whether this is still needed or not. This patch
assumes that whatever isue there was, the versions of Windows
we currently support no longer have it.
With that in mind, this commit fixes the issue by deleting the thread
when the inferior sends the exit-process event as opposed to deleting it
later, while starting a new inferior.
This also restores the printing of the thread-exit notification for
the main thread, which was missing before. Looking at the transcript
of the example shown above, we can see 4 thread creation notifications,
and only 3 notifications for thread exits. Now creation and exit
notifications are balanced.
In the handling of EXIT_THREAD_DEBUG_EVENT, the main_thread_id
check is removed because deemed unnecessary: The main thread was
introduced by a CREATE_PROCESS_DEBUG_EVENT, and thus the kernel
is expected to report its death via EXIT_PROCESS_DEBUG_EVENT.
And finally, because the behavior of delete_thread did change
(albeit when getting a value we probably never expected to receive),
this patch also adds a gdb_assert. The purpose is to provide some
immediate information in case there are other callers that mistakenly
call delete_thread with a NULL thread info. This can be useful
information when direct debugging of GDB isn't an option.

gdb/riscv: Split ISA and ABI features
The goal of this commit is to allow RV64 binaries compiled for the 'F'
extension to run on a target that supports both the 'F' and 'D'
extensions.
The 'D' extension depends on the 'F' extension and chapter 9 of the
RISC-V ISA manual implies that running a program compiled for 'F' on
a 'D' target should be fine.
To support this the gdbarch now holds two feature sets, one represents
the features that are present on the target, and one represents the
features requested in the ELF flags.
The existing error checks are relaxed slightly to allow binaries
compiled for 32-bit 'F' extension to run on targets with the 64-bit
'D' extension.
A new set of functions called riscv_abi_{xlen,flen} are added to
compliment the existing riscv_isa_{xlen,flen}, and some callers to the
isa functions now call the abi functions when that is appropriate.
In riscv_call_arg_struct two asserts are removed, these asserts no
longer make sense. The asserts were both like this:
And were made in two cases, when passing structures like these:
struct {
integer field1;
float field2;
};
or,
struct {
float field1;
integer field2;
};
When running on an RV64 target which only has 32-bit float then the
integer field could be 64-bits, while if the float field is 32-bits
the overall size of the structure can be 128-bits (with 32-bits of
padding). In this case the assertion would fail, however, the code
isn't incorrect, so its safe to just remove the assertion.
This was tested by running on an RV64IMFDC target using a compiler
configured for RV64IMFC, and comparing the results with those obtained
when using a compiler configured for RV64IMFDC. The only regressions
I see (now) are in gdb.base/store.exp and are related too different
code generation choices GCC makes between the two targets.
Finally, this commit does not make any attempt to support running
binaries compiled for RV32 on an RV64 target, though nothing in here
should prevent that being supported in the future.

Make ANSI terminal escape sequences work in TUI
PR tui/14126 notes that ANSI terminal escape sequences don't affect
the colors shown in the TUI. A simple way to see this is to try the
extended-prompt example from the gdb manual.
Curses does not pass escape sequences through to the terminal.
Instead, it replaces non-printable characters with a visible
representation, for example "^[" for the ESC character.
This patch fixes the problem by adding a simple ANSI terminal sequence
parser to gdb. These sequences are decoded and those that are
recognized are turned into the appropriate curses calls.
The curses approach to color handling is unusual and so there are some
oddities in the implementation.
Standard curses has no notion of the default colors of the terminal.
So, if you set the foreground color, it is not possible to reset it --
you have to pick some other color. ncurses provides an extension to
handle this, so this patch updates configure and uses it when
available.
Second, in curses, colors always come in pairs: you cannot set just
the foreground. This patch handles this by tracking actually-used
pairs of colors and keeping a table of these for reuse.
Third, there are a limited number of such pairs available. In this
patch, if you try to use too many color combinations, gdb will just
ignore some color changes.
Finally, in addition to limiting the number of color pairs, curses
also limits the number of colors. This means that, when using
extended 8- or 24-bit color sequences, it may be possible to exhaust
the curses color table.
I am very sour on the curses design now.
I do not know how to write a test for this, so I did not.

Add output styles to gdb
This adds some output styling to the CLI.
A style is currently a foreground color, a background color, and an
intensity (dim or bold). (This list could be expanded depending on
terminal capabilities.)
A style can be applied while printing. For ui-out, this is done by
passing the style constant as an argument. For low-level cases,
fprintf_styled and fputs_styled are provided.
Users can control the style via a number of new set/show commands. In
the interest of not typing many nearly-identical documentation
strings, I automated this. On the down side, this is not very
i18n-friendly.
I've chose some default colors to use. I think it would be good to
enable this by default, so that when users start the new gdb, they
will see the new feature.
Stylizing is done if TERM is set and is not "dumb". This could be
improved when the TUI is available by using the curses has_colors
call. That is, the lowest layer could call this without committing to
using curses everywhere; see my other patch for TUI colorizing.
I considered adding a new "set_style" method to ui_file. However,
because the implementation had to interact with the pager code, I
didn't take this approach. But, one idea might be to put the isatty
check there and then have it defer to the lower layers.

Change wrap buffering to use a std::string
Currently wrap buffering is implemented by allocating a string that is

However, if gdb emits terminal escapes, then these could possibly

To prevent this, change the wrap buffer to be a std::string and update
the various uses.
This also changes utils.c to always emit characters to the wrap

sequences, and also makes it possible for the "echo" and "printf"

Fix leak of set/show verbose doc, avoid xfree of static string
In the tests
py-pp-registration/gdb.log
default/gdb.log
foll-fork/gdb.log
setshow/gdb.log
break-interp/gdb.log
Valgrind detects a leak of the doc strings for the set and show verbose cmd.
Here is the stacktrace of the leaked set doc:
==25548== 15 bytes in 1 blocks are definitely lost in loss record 101 of 3,120

==25548== by 0x289CA7: main (gdb.c:32)
The leak is created by top.c set_verbose 'elaborate joke':
the doc string is changed according to the verbosity:
(gdb) help set verbose
Set verbosity.
(gdb) set verbose on
(gdb) help set verbose
Set verbose printing of informational messages.
(gdb)
set_verbose creates the leak as it replaces the string allocated in
the above stacktrace by a static (non translated) string:
...
if (info_verbose)
{
c->doc = "Set verbose printing of informational messages.";
...
Also, this can possibly trigger a call to 'free' of a static string,
as c->doc_allocated is kept true, while the string is not allocated anymore.
This patch:
* fixes the leak by freeing the previous docs if doc_allocated.
* internationalize the messages.
* properly sets doc_allocated to 0 once doc strings are static.

Avoid internal errors when stepping outside 'main' on MinGW
When one steps with "next" past the 'main's 'return' statement
in MinGW programs built by mingw.org's tools, PC lands in a
function whose symbol is not in any symtab. GDB then looks
up the nearest symbol, and should find none, because all those
with addresses below PC are not real functions. Having
unresolved symbols, whose address is zero, in minsyms tricked
GDB into using these bogus symbols, which then caused
assertion violation and internal_error. See the discussion at
https://sourceware.org/ml/gdb-patches/2018-12/msg00176.html
for more details.

PR24015, glibc-2.28 on little-endian mips32 broken
Commit 2bf2bf23da exposed a bug on targets that create common sections
other than the standard ELF SHN_COMMON. If these are output by ld -r,
then their type becomes SHT_PROGBITS unless the target handles them
specially (eg. by elf_backend_special_sections), and if they are
merged into .bss/.sbss by ld -r then that section becomes SHT_PROGBITS.
Worse, if they are output by ld -r, then their size is increased by
bfd_generic_define_common_symbol during final link, which leads to
bogus file contents being copied to output.
For mips, it seems to me that the .scommon section should not be
output for ld -r, but I haven't made that change in this patch.

PR24028, PPC_INT_FMT
PPC_INT_FMT is redundant now that bfd.h pulls in inttypes.h if
available. Apparently MacOS Mojave defines int64_t as long long even
though long is also 64 bits, which confuses the logic selecting
PPC_INT_FMT (and BFD_PRI64 too). Hopefully inttypes.h is available on
Mojave.

Translate PyExc_KeyboardInterrupt to gdb "quit"
A while back I typed "info pretty-printers" with a large number of
printers installed, and I typed "q" to stop the pagination. I noticed
that gdb printed a Python exception in this case.
It seems to me that, instead, quitting pagination (or control-c'ing a
Python command generally) should be handled the same way that gdb
normally handles a quit.
This patch implements this idea by changing gdbpy_handle_exception to
treat PyExc_KeyboardInterrupt specially.

Build gdb "nat" files in subdirectory
This moves the various "nat" object files into the nat/ subdirectory.
This allows for the removal of a pattern rule from the gdb Makefile,
which is a small cleanup.
I made the configure.nat change in a (semi-) automated way, hopefully
meaning that it is more likely to be correct than had I done it by
hand.
Eventually I would like for the various configure scripts to only
mention source files, and let the Makefile compute the object file
names.
