This commit is the result of the following actions:
- Running gdb/copyright.py to update all of the copyright headers to
include 2024,
- Manually updating a few files the copyright.py script told me to
update, these files had copyright headers embedded within the
file,
- Regenerating gdbsupport/Makefile.in to refresh it's copyright
date,
- Using grep to find other files that still mentioned 2023. If
these files were updated last year from 2022 to 2023 then I've
updated them this year to 2024.
I'm sure I've probably missed some dates. Feel free to fix them up as
you spot them.

This changes some tests to use "require isnative".

This commit is the result of running the gdb/copyright.py script,
which automated the update of the copyright year range for all
source files managed by the GDB project to be updated to include
year 2023.

The canonical form of 'if' in modern TCL is 'if {} {}'. But there's
still a bunch of places in the testsuite where we make use of the
'then' keyword, and sometimes these get copies into new tests, which
just spreads poor practice.
This commit removes all use of the 'then' keyword from the gdb.base/
test script directory.
There should be no changes in what is tested after this commit.

This commit brings all the changes made by running gdb/copyright.py
as per GDB's Start of New Year Procedure.
For the avoidance of doubt, all changes in this commits were
performed by the script.

As follow-up to this discussion:

... make runto_main not pass no-message to runto. This means that if we
fail to run to main, for some reason, we'll emit a FAIL. This is the
behavior we want the majority of (if not all) the time.
Without this, we rely on tests logging a failure if runto_main fails,
otherwise. They do so in a very inconsisteny mannet, sometimes using
"fail", "unsupported" or "untested". The messages also vary widly.
This patch removes all these messages as well.
Also, remove a few "fail" where we call runto (and not runto_main). by
default (without an explicit no-message argument), runto prints a
failure already. In two places, gdb.multi/multi-re-run.exp and
gdb.python/py-pp-registration.exp, remove "message" passed to runto.
This removes a few PASSes that we don't care about (but FAILs will still
be printed if we fail to run to where we want to). This aligns their
behavior with the rest of the testsuite.

Luis Machado reported some regressions after I pushed recent core file
related patches fixing BZ 25631:
FAIL: gdb.base/corefile.exp: backtrace in corefile.exp
FAIL: gdb.base/corefile.exp: core-file warning-free
FAIL: gdb.base/corefile.exp: print func2::coremaker_local
FAIL: gdb.base/corefile.exp: up in corefile.exp
FAIL: gdb.base/corefile.exp: up in corefile.exp (reinit)
This commit fixes these regressions. Thanks to Luis for testing
an earlier version of the patch. (I was unable to reproduce these
regressions in various test environments that I created.)
Luis is testing in a docker container which is using the AUFS storage
driver. It turns out that the kernel is placing docker host paths in
the NT_FILE note instead of paths within the container.
I've made a similar docker environment (though apparently not similar
enough to reproduce the regressions). This is one of the paths that
I see mentioned in the warning messages printed while loading the
core file during NT_FILE note processing - note that I've shortened
the path component starting with "d07c4":
/var/lib/docker/aufs/diff/d07c4...21/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/ld-2.27.so
This is a path on the docker host; it does not exist in the
container. In the docker container, this is the path:
/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/ld-2.27.so
My first thought was to disable all NT_FILE mappings when any path was
found to be bad. This would have caused GDB to fall back to accessing
memory using the file stratum as it did before I added the NT_FILE
note loading code. After further consideration, I realized that we
could do better than this. For file-backed memory access, we can
still use the NT_FILE mappings when available, and then attempt to
access memory using the file stratum constrained to those address
ranges corresponding to the "broken" mappings.
In order to test it, I made some additions to corefile2.exp in which
the test case's executable is renamed. The core file is then loaded;
due to the fact that the executable has been renamed, those mappings
will be unavailable. After loading the core file, the executable is
renamed back to its original name at which point it is loaded using
GDB's "file" command. The "interesting" tests are then run. These
tests will print out values in file-backed memory regions along with
mmap'd regions placed within/over the file-backed regions. Despite
the fact that the executable could not be found during the NT_FILE
note processing, these tests still work correctly due to the fact that
memory is available from the file stratum combined with the fact that
the broken NT_FILE mappings are used to prevent file-backed access
outside of the "broken" mappings.
gdb/ChangeLog:
* corelow.c (unordered_set): Include.
(class core_target): Add field 'm_core_unavailable_mappings'.
(core_target::build_file_mappings): Print only one warning
per inaccessible file. Add unavailable/broken mappings
to m_core_unavailable_mappings.
(core_target::xfer_partial): Call...
(core_target::xfer_memory_via_mappings): New method.
gdb/testsuite/ChangeLog:
* gdb.base/corefile2.exp (renamed binfile): New tests.

This test case was inspired by Pedro's demonstration of a problem
with my v2 patches. It can be found here:
https://sourceware.org/pipermail/gdb-patches/2020-May/168826.html
In a nutshell, my earlier patches could not handle the case in
which a read-only mapping created with mmap() was created at
an address used by other file-backed read-only memory in use by
the process.
This problem has been fixed (for Linux, anyway) by the commit "Use
NT_FILE note section for reading core target memory".
When I run this test without any of my recent corefile patches,
I see these failures:
FAIL: gdb.base/corefile2.exp: kernel core: print/x mbuf_ro[0]@4
FAIL: gdb.base/corefile2.exp: kernel core: print/x mbuf_ro[pagesize-4]@4
FAIL: gdb.base/corefile2.exp: kernel core: print/x mbuf_ro[-3]@6
FAIL: gdb.base/corefile2.exp: kernel core: print/x mbuf_rw[pagesize-3]@6
FAIL: gdb.base/corefile2.exp: kernel core: print/x mbuf_ro[pagesize-3]@6
FAIL: gdb.base/corefile2.exp: maint print core-file-backed-mappings
FAIL: gdb.base/corefile2.exp: gcore core: print/x mbuf_ro[-3]@6
The ones involving mbuf_ro will almost certainly fail when run on
non-Linux systems; I've used setup_xfail on those tests to prevent
them from outright FAILing when not run on Linux. For a time, I
had considered skipping these tests altogether when not run on
Linux, but I changed my mind due to this failure...
FAIL: gdb.base/corefile2.exp: print/x mbuf_rw[pagesize-3]@6
I think it *should* pass without my recent corefile patches. The fact
that it doesn't is likely due to a bug in GDB. The following
interaction with GDB demonstrates the problem:
(gdb) print/x mbuf_rw[pagesize-3]@6
$1 = {0x0, 0x0, 0x0, 0x0, 0x0, 0x0}
(gdb) print/x mbuf_rw[pagesize]@3
$2 = {0x6b, 0x6b, 0x6b}
The last three values in display of $1 should be the same as those
shown by $2. Like this...
(gdb) print/x mbuf_rw[pagesize-3]@6
$1 = {0x0, 0x0, 0x0, 0x6b, 0x6b, 0x6b}
(gdb) print/x mbuf_rw[pagesize]@3
$2 = {0x6b, 0x6b, 0x6b}
That latter output was obtained with the use of all of my current
corefile patches. I see no failures on Linux when running this test
with my current set of corefile patches. I tested 3 architectures:
x86_64, s390x, and aarch64.
I also tested on FreeBSD 12.1-RELEASE. I see the following results
both with and without the current set of core file patches:
# of expected passes 26
# of expected failures 8
Of particular interest is that I did *not* see the problematic mbuf_rw
failure noted earlier (both with and without the core file patches).
I still don't have an explanation for why this failure occurred on
Linux. Prior to running the tests, I had hypothesized that I'd see
this failure on FreeBSD too, but testing shows that this is not the
case.
Also of importance is that we see no FAILs with this test on FreeBSD
which indicates that I XFAILed the correct tests.
This version runs the interesting tests twice, once with a kernel
created core file and another time with a gcore created core file.
It also does a very minimal test of the new command "maint print
core-file-backed-mappings".
