This converts gnu-v3-abi.c to use the new hash table.
This change shows how a std::vector can easily be made directly from
the hash table, simplifying the earlier approach of constructing a
vector and a hash table at the same time.

This converts linespec.c to use the new hash table.
Note that more simplification could perhaps be done. Currently, the
collectors in this code insert an element into a set and then, if the
element has not been seen before, append it to a vector. If we know
the order does not matter, or if the results can be sorted later, we
could dispense with the vector. This would simplify the code some
more. (This technique is used in the vtable patch, later in this
series.)

This converts compile-c-symbols.c to use the new hash table.
I made it use a set of string_view instead of a set of `symbol *`, to
avoid calling `symbol::natural_name` over and over. This appears safe
to do, since I don't expect the storage behing the natural names to
change during the lifetime of the map.

Add a copy of unordered_dense.h from [1]. This file implements an
efficient hash map and hash set with a nice C++ interface (a near
drop-in for std::unordered_map and std::unordered_set). This is
expected to be used to replace uses of `htab_t`, for improved code
readability and type safety. Performance-wise, it is preferred to the
std types (std::unordered_map and std::unordered_set) due to it using
open addressing vs closed addressing for the std types.
I chose this particular implementation because it is simple to use, it's
a standalone header and it typically performs well in benchmarks I have
seen (e.g. [2]). The license being MIT, my understanding is that it's
not a problem to use it and re-distribute it.
Add two additional files, gdbsupport/unordered_map.h and
gdbsupport/unordered_set.h, which make the map and set offered by
gdbsupport/unordered_dense.h available as gdb::unordered_map and
gdb::unordered_set.

The breakpoint_free_objfile function is called from the objfile
destructor, and has the job of removing references to the soon to be
deleted objfile from all breakpoint locations.
The current implementation of breakpoint_free_objfile seems to miss
lots of possible objfile references within bp_location. Currently we
only check if bp_location::symtab is associated with the objfile in
question, but there's bp_location::section and bp_location::probe,
both of which might reference the soon to be deleted objfile.
Additionally bp_location::symbol and bp_location::msymbol if set will
surely be related to the objfile and should also be cleaned up.
I'm not aware that this causes any problems, but it doesn't seem like
a good idea to retain pointers to deleted state, so I propose that we
improve breakpoint_free_objfile to set these pointers back to nullptr.
In the future I plan to investigate the possibility of merging the
functionality of breakpoint_free_objfile into
disable_breakpoints_in_freed_objfile which is called via the
gdb::observers::free_objfile event. However, I already have a patch series
in progress which touches this area of GDB, and I'd like to avoid
conflicting with that earlier series:
https://inbox.sourceware.org/gdb-patches/cover.1724948606.git.aburgess@redhat.com
Once this patch, and that earlier series have landed then I'll see if
I can merge breakpoint_free_objfile, but I don't think that this needs
to block this patch.
There should be no user visible changes after this commit.

In update_breakpoint_locations there's a scope block which I don't
think adds any value. There is one local defined within the scope,
the local is currently an 'int' but should be a 'bool', either way
there's no destructor being triggered when we exit the scope.
This commit changes the local to a 'bool', removes the unnecessary
scope, and re-indents the code.
Within the (now removed) scope was a `for' loop. Inside the loop I
have converted this:
for (....)
{
if (CONDITION)
{
/* Body */
}
}
to this:
for (....)
{
if (!CONDITION)
continue;
/* Body */
}
which means that the body doesn't need to be indented as much, making
things easier to read.
There should be no functional change after this commit.

Recalculate the checksum and replace whatever is at the end
of the packet with the newly calculated checksum. Then
replay the packet with the checksum added.
The motivation for this change is that I'd like to add a TCL test
which starts a communication with gdbsever setting the remotelog file.
Then, it modifies the remotelog, injects an error message instead of
the expected replay to some packet in order to test GDB reacts to
the error response properly.

Some of the filename completion tests perform mid-line completion.
That is we enter a partial line, then move the cursor back to the
middle of the line and perform completion.
The problem is that, emitting characters into the middle of a terminal
line relies on first emitting some control characters. And which
control characters are emitted will depend on the current TERM
setting.
When I initially added the mid-line completion tests I setup two
regexp that covered two different terminal types, but PR gdb/32338
identifies additional terminal types that emit different sequences of
control characters.
Rather than trying to handle all possible terminal types, lets just
force the TERM variable to something simple (i.e. "dumb") and then
just support that one case. The thing being tested for here was that
GDB would complete a filename in the middle of a line, the specific
terminal type was not really important.
I've simplified the regexp used to match the completion in two places,
and I now force TERM to be "dumb" for the mid-line completion tests.
I've tested this by setting my global environment TERM to 'ansi',
'xterm', 'xterm-mono', and 'dumb', and I see no failures in any mode
now.

GDB provides a special process record and replay target that can
record a log of the process execution, and replay it later with
both forward and reverse execution commands. This patch adds the
basic support of process record and replay on LoongArch, it allows
users to debug basic LoongArch instructions and provides reverse
debugging support.
Here is a simple example on LoongArch:
$ cat test.c
int a = 0;
int main()
{
a = 1;
a = 2;
return 0;
}
$ gdb test
...
(gdb) start
...
Temporary breakpoint 1, main () at test.c:4
4 a = 1;
(gdb) record
(gdb) p a
$1 = 0
(gdb) n
5 a = 2;
(gdb) n
6 return 0;
(gdb) p a
$2 = 2
(gdb) rn
5 a = 2;
(gdb) rn
Reached end of recorded history; stopping.
Backward execution from here not possible.
main () at test.c:4
4 a = 1;
(gdb) p a
$3 = 0
(gdb) record stop
Process record is stopped and all execution logs are deleted.

This commit adds recording support for the AVX instruction vpor, and the
AVX2 extension. Since the encoding of vpor and vpxor are the same, and
their semantics are basically the same, modulo the mathematical
operation, they are handled by the same switch case block.
This also updates the vpxor function, to test vpor and vpxor, and
updates the name to vpor_xor_test to better reflect what it does.

This patch is motivated by the wait function for the record-full target,
that would install a custom signal handler for SIGINT, but could throw
an exception and never reset the SIGINT handler. This is clearly a bad
idea, so this patch introduces the class scoped_signal_handler in a new
.h file. The file is added to gdbsupport, even though only gdb code is
using it, because it feels like an addition that would be useful for
more than just directly gdb.
The implementation of the RAII class is based on the implementation
on gdb/utils.c. That is, it uses preprocessor ifdefs to probe for
sigaction support, and uses it if possible, defaulting to a raw call to
signal only if sigaction isn't supported. sigaction is preferred based
on the "portability" section of the manual page for the signal function.
There are 3 places where this class can just be dropped in,
gdb/record-full.c, gdb/utils.c and gdb/extension.c. This third place
already had a specialized RAII signal handler setter, but it is
substituted for the new general purpose one.

When I implemented debugging of Wow64 processes, I missed that there are
extra ContextFlags defines for them.
It's a bit surprising that the wrong ones actually worked, except that
CONTEXT_EXTENDED_REGISTERS is not available for x86_64, and they are
needed for i686, since that's where the xmm registers are stored.
So this replaces the ContextFlags values with their WOW64_* equivalents.
On gdbserver this also duplicates the fallback logic if the
GetThreadContext call failed with CONTEXT_EXTENDED_REGISTERS.
Fixes these fails:

I tried out making python initialization fail by passing an incorrect

...
$ PYTHONHOME=foo ./gdb.sh -q
Python path configuration:
PYTHONHOME = 'foo'
...
Python initialization failed: \
failed to get the Python codec of the filesystem encoding
Python not initialized
$
...
The relevant part of the code is:
...
static void
gdbpy_initialize (const struct extension_language_defn *extlang)
{
if (!do_start_initialization () && py_isinitialized && PyErr_Occurred ())
gdbpy_print_stack ();
gdbpy_enter enter_py;
...
What happens is:
- gdbpy_enter::gdbpy_enter () is called, where we run into:
'if (!gdb_python_initialized) error (_("Python not initialized"));'
- the error propagates to gdb's toplevel
- gdb print the error and exits.
It seems unnecesssary that we exit gdb. We could continue the
session without python support.
Fix this by:
- bailing out of gdbpy_initialize if !do_start_initialization
- bailing out of finalize_python if !gdb_python_initialized
This gets us instead:
...

Python path configuration:

I tried out making python initialization fail by passing an incorrect
PYTHONHOME with python 3.6, and got:
...
$ PYTHONHOME=foo gdb -q
Fatal Python error: Py_Initialize: Unable to get the locale encoding
ModuleNotFoundError: No module named 'encodings'
Current thread 0x0000ffff89269c80 (most recent call first):
Fatal signal: Aborted
...
Aborted (core dumped)
$
...
This is as per spec: when Py_Initialize () fails, a fatal error is raised
using Py_FatalError.
This can be worked around using:
...
$ PYTHONHOME=foo gdb -q -eiex "set python ignore-environment on"
(gdb)
...
but it would be better if gdb didn't abort.
I found an article [1] describing two solutions:
- try out Py_Initialize in a separate process, and
- catch the abort using a signal handler.
This patch implements the latter solution.
Obviously we cannot call into python anymore after the abort, so we avoid
calling Py_IsInitialized (), and instead use a new variable py_isinitialized.
This gets us instead:
...
$ PYTHONHOME=foo gdb -q
Fatal Python error: Py_Initialize: Unable to get the locale encoding
ModuleNotFoundError: No module named 'encodings'

I tried out making python initialization fail by passing an incorrect
PYTHONHOME, and got:
...
$ PYTHONHOME=foo gdb -q
Python path configuration:
PYTHONHOME = 'foo'
...
Python Exception <class 'ModuleNotFoundError'>: No module named 'encodings'
Python not initialized
$
...
The relevant part of the code is:
...
static void
gdbpy_initialize (const struct extension_language_defn *extlang)
{
if (!do_start_initialization () && PyErr_Occurred ())
gdbpy_print_stack ();
gdbpy_enter enter_py;
...
What happens is that:
- do_start_initialization returns false because Py_InitializeFromConfig fails,
leaving us in the !Py_IsInitialized () state
- PyErr_Occurred () returns true
- gdbpy_print_stack is called, which prints
"Python Exception <class 'ModuleNotFoundError'>: No module named 'encodings"
The problem is that in the Py_IsInitialized () == false state, very few
functions can be called, and PyErr_Occurred is not one of them [1], and
likewise functions in gdbpy_print_stack.
Fix this by:
- guarding the PyErr_Occurred / gdbpy_print_stack part with Py_IsInitialized ().
- handling the !Py_IsInitialized () case by printing the failure PyStatus
in do_start_initialization
This gets us instead:
...
$ PYTHONHOME=foo ./gdb.sh -q
Python path configuration:
PYTHONHOME = 'foo'
...
