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 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.

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.

When running test-case gdb.cp/step-and-next-inline.exp with gcc-11, I run
into:
...
KPASS: gdb.cp/step-and-next-inline.exp: no_header: next step 1 \
(PRMS symtab/25507)
FAIL: gdb.cp/step-and-next-inline.exp: no_header: next step 2
KPASS: gdb.cp/step-and-next-inline.exp: no_header: next step 3 \
(PRMS symtab/25507)
...
[ Note that I get the same result with gcc-11 and target board
unix/gdb:debug_flags=-gdwarf-4, so this is not a dwarf 4 vs 5 issue. ]
With gcc-10, I have this trace:
...
64 get_alias_set (&xx);
get_alias_set (t=0x601038 <xx>) at step-and-next-inline.cc:51
51 if (t != NULL
40 if (t->x != i)
52 && TREE_TYPE (t).z != 1
43 return x;
53 && TREE_TYPE (t).z != 2
43 return x;
54 && TREE_TYPE (t).z != 3)
43 return x;
main () at step-and-next-inline.cc:65
65 return 0;
...
and with gcc-11, I have instead:
...
64 get_alias_set (&xx);
get_alias_set (t=0x601038 <xx>) at step-and-next-inline.cc:51
51 if (t != NULL
52 && TREE_TYPE (t).z != 1
43 return x;
53 && TREE_TYPE (t).z != 2
43 return x;
54 && TREE_TYPE (t).z != 3)
43 return x;
main () at step-and-next-inline.cc:65
65 return 0;
...
and with clang-10, I have instead:
...
64 get_alias_set (&xx);
get_alias_set (t=0x601034 <xx>) at step-and-next-inline.cc:51
51 if (t != NULL
52 && TREE_TYPE (t).z != 1
53 && TREE_TYPE (t).z != 2
54 && TREE_TYPE (t).z != 3)
51 if (t != NULL
57 }
main () at step-and-next-inline.cc:65
65 return 0;
...
The test-case tries to verify that we don't step into inlined function
tree_check (lines 40-43) (so, with the clang trace we get that right).
The test-case then tries to kfail the problems when using gcc, but this is
done in such a way that the testing still gets out of sync after a failure.
That is: the "next step 2" check that is supposed to match
"TREE_TYPE (t).z != 2" is actually matching "TREE_TYPE (t).z != 1":
...
(gdb) next^M
52 && TREE_TYPE (t).z != 1^M
(gdb) PASS: gdb.cp/step-and-next-inline.exp: no_header: next step 2
...
Fix this by issuing extra nexts to arrive at the required lines.
Tested on x86_64-linux, with gcc-8, gcc-9, gcc-10, gcc-11, clang-8, clang-10
and clang-12.

Update copyright year range in copyright header of all GDB files.

This commit brings support for the DWARF line table is_stmt field to
GDB. The is_stmt field is used by the compiler when a single source
line is split into multiple assembler instructions, especially if the
assembler instructions are interleaved with instruction from other
source lines.
The compiler will set the is_stmt flag false from some instructions
from the source lines, these instructions are not a good place to
insert a breakpoint in order to stop at the source line.
Instructions which are marked with the is_stmt flag true are a good
place to insert a breakpoint for that source line.
Currently GDB ignores all instructions for which is_stmt is false.
This is fine in a lot of cases, however, there are some cases where
this means the debug experience is not as good as it could be.
Consider stopping at a random instruction, currently this instruction
will be attributed to the last line table entry before this point for
which is_stmt was true - as these are the only line table entries that
GDB tracks. This can easily be incorrect in code with even a low
level of optimisation.
With is_stmt tracking in place, when stopping at a random instruction
we now attribute the instruction back to the real source line, even
when is_stmt is false for that instruction in the line table.
When inserting breakpoints we still select line table entries for
which is_stmt is true, so the breakpoint placing behaviour should not
change.
When stepping though code (at the line level, not the instruction
level) we will still stop at instruction where is_stmt is true, I
think this is more likely to be the desired behaviour.
Instruction stepping is, of course, unchanged, stepping one
instruction at a time, but we should now report more accurate line
table information with each instruction step.
The original motivation for this work was a patch posted by Bernd
here:
https://sourceware.org/ml/gdb-patches/2019-11/msg00792.html
As part of that thread it was suggested that many issues would be
resolved if GDB supported line table views, this isn't something I've
attempted in this patch, though reading the spec, it seems like this
would be a useful feature to support in GDB in the future. The spec
is here:
http://dwarfstd.org/ShowIssue.php?issue=170427.1
And Bernd gives a brief description of the benefits here:
https://sourceware.org/ml/gdb-patches/2020-01/msg00147.html
With that all said, I think that there is benefit to having proper
is_stmt support regardless of whether we have views support, so I
think we should consider getting this in first, and then building view
support on top of this.
The gdb.cp/step-and-next-inline.exp test is based off a test proposed
by Bernd Edlinger in this message:
https://sourceware.org/ml/gdb-patches/2019-12/msg00842.html
