This updates the copyright headers to include 2025. I did this by
running gdb/copyright.py and then manually modifying a few files as
noted by the script.

gdb.python/py-missing-debug.exp"
This reverts commit 29c70787112e01cd52b53bf14bdcacb0a11e0725.
After the previous commit 29c70787112e01cd52 should no longer be
needed as the curses dependency has been removed.

On a system with python 3.6, module gdb.missing_debug imports module curses,
so when running test-case gdb.python/py-missing-debug.exp on a system without
that module installed, we run into:
...
(gdb) source py-missing-debug.py^M
Python Exception <class 'ImportError'>: Module 'curses' is not installed.^M
Use:^M
sudo zypper install python36-curses^M
to install it.^M
Error occurred in Python: Module 'curses' is not installed.^M
Use:^M
sudo zypper install python36-curses^M
to install it.^M
(gdb) FAIL: gdb.python/py-missing-debug.exp: source python script
...
Fix this by issuing UNSUPPORTED instead, and bailing out.
Tested on x86_64-linux.

Clang doesn't add build-id information by default, unlike gcc. This
means that tests that rely on build-id being available and don't
explicitly add it to the compilation options will fail with clang.
This commit fixes the fails in gdb.python/py-missing-debug.exp,
gdb.server/remote-read-msgs.exp, gdb.base/coredump-filter-build-id.exp
and gdb.server/solib-list.exp

The "python" command (and the Python implementation of the gdb
"source" command) does not handle Python exceptions in the same way as
other gdb-facing Python code. In particular, exceptions are turned
into a generic error rather than being routed through
gdbpy_handle_exception, which takes care of converting to 'quit' as
appropriate.
I think this was done this way because PyRun_SimpleFile and friends do
not propagate the Python exception -- they simply indicate that one
occurred.
This patch reimplements these functions to respect the general gdb
convention here. As a bonus, some Windows-specific code can be
removed, as can the _execute_file function.
The bulk of this change is tweaking the test suite to match the new
way that exceptions are displayed. These changes are largely
uninteresting. However, it's worth pointing out the py-error.exp
change. Here, the failure changes because the test changes the host
charset to something that isn't supported by Python. This then
results in a weird error in the new setup.

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.

'runtest' complains about a path in a test name, from the new test
case py-missing-debug.exp.
This patch fixes the problem by providing an explicit test name to
gdb_test. I chose something very basic because the block in question
is already wrapped in with_test_prefix.

This commit builds on the previous commit, and implements the
extension_language_ops::handle_missing_debuginfo function for Python.
This hook will give user supplied Python code a chance to help find
missing debug information.
The implementation of the new hook is pretty minimal within GDB's C++
code; most of the work is out-sourced to a Python implementation which
is modelled heavily on how GDB's Python frame unwinders are
implemented.
The following new commands are added as commands implemented in
Python, this is similar to how the Python unwinder commands are
implemented:
info missing-debug-handlers
enable missing-debug-handler LOCUS HANDLER
disable missing-debug-handler LOCUS HANDLER
To make use of this extension hook a user will create missing debug
information handler objects, and registers these handlers with GDB.
When GDB encounters an objfile that is missing debug information, each
handler is called in turn until one is able to help. Here is a
minimal handler that does nothing useful:
import gdb
import gdb.missing_debug
class MyFirstHandler(gdb.missing_debug.MissingDebugHandler):
def __init__(self):
super().__init__("my_first_handler")
def __call__(self, objfile):
# This handler does nothing useful.
return None
gdb.missing_debug.register_handler(None, MyFirstHandler())
Returning None from the __call__ method tells GDB that this handler
was unable to find the missing debug information, and GDB should ask
any other registered handlers.
By extending the __call__ method it is possible for the Python
extension to locate the debug information for objfile and return a
value that tells GDB how to use the information that has been located.
Possible return values from a handler:
- None: This means the handler couldn't help. GDB will call other
registered handlers to see if they can help instead.
- False: The handler has done all it can, but the debug information
for the objfile still couldn't be found. GDB will not call
any other handlers, and will continue without the debug
information for objfile.
- True: The handler has installed the debug information into a
location where GDB would normally expect to find it. GDB
should look again for the debug information.
- A string: The handler can return a filename, which is the file
containing the missing debug information. GDB will load
this file.
When a handler returns True, GDB will look again for the debug
information, but only using the standard built-in build-id and
.gnu_debuglink based lookup strategies. It is not possible for an
extension to trigger another debuginfod lookup; the assumption is that
the debuginfod server is remote, and out of the control of extensions
running within GDB.
Handlers can be registered globally, or per program space. GDB checks
the handlers for the current program space first, and then all of the
global handles. The first handler that returns a value that is not
None, has "handled" the objfile, at which point GDB continues.
