Beef up VG_(strerror) to provide correct messages for the
errno codes in asm-generic/errno-base.h (on linux).
The error strings were obtained by calling strerror natively in
Linux.
Extend vki-linux.h accordingly. vki-darwin.h already had
those errno codes.
Add testcase. This fixes #287858.
Fix 247386 make perf does not run all performance tests :
* move memcheck/perf/many-loss-records test to perf directory
massif/perf/many-xpts test to perf directory
* modified many-loss-records.vgperf and many-xpts.vgperf,
so as to have tool specific options prefixed with their tool
* remove directory memcheck/perf and massif/perf (containing no test anymore)
* none/tests/linux/mremap3.vgtest : new test
mremap3.c based on testcase provided by Jan Engelhardt
* coregrind/m_syswrap/syswrap-generic.c
- The two 'no-thrash checks' that were introduced to fix bug #129866
were (probably) broken when adress space manager was reworked.
The new VG_(am_get_advisory_client_simple) returns NULL for a free
segment, but the check was based on checking not NULL and then
that the state is free.
=> replaces these two local checks by a call to the new
am Bool VG_(am_covered_by_single_free_segment) function.
* coregrind/pub_core_aspacemgr.h
coregrind/m_aspacemgr/aspacemgr-linux.c

Add a configure test for detecting whether gcc supports atomic operations on
64-bit integers on 32-bit platforms. Apparently newer gcc versions support
this but older versions not. Thanks to Philippe Waroquiers for reporting this.
rev 12001 has introduced a regression in VG_(env_remove_valgrind_env_stuff):
to avoid modifying a possibly read-only env string, the string is duplicated,
and the copy is modified. However, mash_env_column modifies the string
"in-place". The modified string was not put back in the env (and could not,
because the src string is only partially copied).
This means that the valgrind preload strings were not cleaned up and
when a 32 bit executable execs a 64 bits (or vice versa: 64 bit execs 32 bits),
LD_PRELOAD contains both the 32 bits and 64 bits versions of Valgrind
vgpreload.... => ld.so then gives an error msg, as it can't preload either
the 32 or the 64 bits version.
The patch fixes this by duplicating the whole env string, and passing
to mash_colon_env a pointer to the correct offset in the whole env string.
The duplicated string is replacing the original entry in envp.
This patch adds two regression tests : none/tests/allexec32 and
none/tests/allexec64. On a bi-arch valgrind, these will be 32bits and 64 bits
executables, exec-ing each other. On a single arch, one will be a symlink
to the other (to avoid different .exp files, and still test exec).
Give a better help message for gdbserver when VALGRIND_LIB
is set. This ensures a correct help msg is given when
the valgrind installation is moved, and VALGRIND_LIB is
then set to the new valgrind lib location.
Note it does not improve the help msg when valgrind
is run "in place" (e.g. when using vg-in-place).

arm-linux: fix signal returning so that if SA_RESTORER is not
specified, the handler returns to the previous context rather than to
whatever value happens to be parked in the link register (duh).
Previous behaviour made complete nonsense of signal returning on
Android.
The sparse wa maintains the nr of elements in use at level 0.
So, replace the code which counts the nr of bits in the level0
bitmap by just returning the nr of elements in use.
To detect calls and returns, Callgrind's heuristic
starts with using the jumpkind got from VEX for
a control flow change instruction. However, for
side exits, it always assumed a (conditional) jump,
which holds true for x86, but e.g. not for ARM.
This fixes Callgrind to use the jumpkind found
by VEX for all exits, which should help making
Callgrind work for ARM. It also moves the check
whether a boring jump is actually a fall-through
to instrumentation time. This changes (fixes) the
result for indirect jumps to the next instruction,
which should not be classified as fall-through
(anyway, this case is probably very rare).
This patch introduces an own enum for jump kinds
in Callgrind. This is less confusing than misusing
the VEX jump kind type, as Callgrinds wants
to distinguish BB fall-throughs from real jumps
(which both are Ijk_Boring in VEX).
Also, setup_bbcc now stores separately whether the
jump kind is conditional or not.
This is the last part of moving from command file polling
to the vgdb ptrace method for interactive control of Callgrind.
VG 3.7.x ported callgrind_control to vgdb (in r11867), but
still did command file polling to support existing KCachegrind
releases. KCachegrind from upcoming KDE SC 4.8 will use
callgrind_control instead of manually writing command files.
The main benefit from this is, apart from getting rid of
continous file polling activity in Callgrind, that blocked
processes can now respond to callgrind_control.

Don't break fcntl locks when program does mmap. #280965.

tdb uses fcntl locks and mmap, and some of the tests fail under valgrind.
strace showed valgrind opening the tdb file, reading 1024 bytes, then closing
it. This is not allowed: POSIX says if you open and close a file, all fcntl
locks on it are dropped (insane, yes).

doing the damage. The simplest fix was to hand in an optional fd for it to
use, then have it do pread.
I had to fix your pread; surely this should seek back even if the platform
