The "catch load" code is reasonably self-contained, and so this patch
moves it out of breakpoint.c and into a new file, break-catch-load.c.
One function from breakpoint.c, print_solib_event, now has to be
exposed, but this seems pretty reasonable.

This de-duplicates variables and types in .gdb_index, making the new
index closer to what gdb generated before the new DWARF scanner
series. Spot-checking the resulting index for gdb itself, it seems
that the new scanner picks up some extra symbols not detected by the
old one. I tested both the new and old versions of gdb on both new
and old versions of the index, and startup time in all cases is
roughly the same (it's worth noting that, for gdb itself, the index no
longer provides any benefit over the DWARF scanner). So, I think this
fixes the size issue with the new index writer.
Regression tested on x86-64 Fedora 34.

At AdaCore, we run the internal gdb test suite in several modes,
including one using the .debug_names index. This caught a regression
caused by the new DWARF indexer.
First, the psymtabs-based .debug_names generator was completely wrong.
However, to avoid making the rewrite series even bigger (fixing the
writer will also require rewriting the .debug_names reader), it
attempted to preserve the weirdness.
However, this was not done properly. For example the old writer did
this:
- case STRUCT_DOMAIN:
- return DW_TAG_structure_type;
The new code, instead, simply preserves the actual DWARF tag -- but
this makes future lookups fail, because the .debug_names reader only
looks for DW_TAG_structure_type.
This patch attempts to revert to the old behavior in the writer.

Commit 152a1749566 ("gdb: prune inferiors at end of
fetch_inferior_event, fix intermittent failure of
gdb.threads/fork-plus-threads.exp") introduced some follow-fork-related
test failures, such as:

What happens here is:
- inferior 2 is selected
- we continue, leading to inferior 2's exit
- we set breakpoint, expect 2 locations, but only one location is
resolved
Reading between the lines, we understand that inferior 2 got pruned,
when it shouldn't have been.
The issue can be reproduced by hand with:
$ ./gdb -q --data-directory=data-directory testsuite/outputs/gdb.base/foll-fork/foll-fork -ex "set detach-on-fork off" -ex start -ex "next 2" -ex "inferior 2" -ex "set debug infrun"

After handling the EXITED event for inferior 2, inferior 2 should have
stayed the current inferior, which should have prevented it from getting
pruned. When debugging, we find that when getting at the
prune_inferiors call, the current inferior is inferior 1. Further
debugging shows that prior to the call to
clean_up_just_stopped_threads_fsms, the current inferior is inferior 2,
and after, it's inferior 1. Then, back in fetch_inferior_event, the
restore_thread object is disabled, due to:
/* If we got a TARGET_WAITKIND_NO_RESUMED event, then the
previously selected thread is gone. We have two
choices - switch to no thread selected, or restore the
previously selected thread (now exited). We chose the
later, just because that's what GDB used to do. After
this, "info threads" says "The current thread <Thread
ID 2> has terminated." instead of "No thread
selected.". */
if (!non_stop
&& cmd_done
&& ecs->ws.kind () != TARGET_WAITKIND_NO_RESUMED)
restore_thread.dont_restore ();
So in the end, inferior 1 stays current, and inferior 2 gets wrongfully
pruned.
I'd say clean_up_just_stopped_threads_fsms is the culprit here. It
actually attempts to restore the event_thread to be current at the end,
after the loop (I presume the current thread on entry is always supposed
to be the event thread). But in this case, the event is of kind EXITED,
and ecs->event_thread is not set, so the current inferior isn't
restored.
Fix that by using scoped_restore_current_thread. If there is no current
thread, scoped_restore_current_thread will still restore the current
inferior, and that's what we want.
Random note: the thread_info object for inferior 2's thread is never
freed. It is held (by refcount) by the restore_thread object in
fetch_inferior_event, while the inferior's thread list gets cleared, in
the exit event processing. When the refcount reaches 0 (when the
restore_thread object is destroyed), there's nothing that actually
deletes the thread_info object. And I think that nothing in GDB points
to it anymore, so it leaks. I don't want to fix that in this patch, but
thought it would be good to mention it, in case somebody has an idea for
how to fix that.

The current target_resume interface is a bit odd & non-intuitive.
I've found myself explaining it a couple times the recent past, while
reviewing patches that assumed STEP/SIGNAL always applied to the
passed in PTID. It goes like this today:
- if the passed in PTID is a thread, then the step/signal request is
for that thread.
- otherwise, if PTID is a wildcard (all threads or all threads of
process), the step/signal request is for inferior_ptid, and PTID
indicates which set of threads run free.
Because GDB always switches the current thread to "leader" thread
being resumed/stepped/signalled, we can simplify this a bit to:
- step/signal are always for inferior_ptid.
- PTID indicates the set of threads that run free.
Still not ideal, but it's a minimal change and at least there are no
special cases this way.
That's what this patch does. It renames the PTID parameter to
SCOPE_PTID, adds some assertions to target_resume, and tweaks
target_resume's description. In addition, it also renames PTID to
SCOPE_PTID in the remote and linux-nat targets, and simplifies their
implementation a little bit. Other targets could do the same, but
they don't have to.

The DWARF index code currently uses 'stat' to see if an objfile
represents a real file. However, I think it's more correct to check
OBJF_NOT_FILENAME instead.
Regression tested on x86-64 Fedora 34.

I noticed a few spots in GDB that use "typedef enum". However, in C++
this isn't as useful, as the tag is automatically entered as a
typedef. This patch removes most uses of "typedef enum" -- the
exceptions being in some nat-* code I can't compile, and
glibc_thread_db.h, which I think is more or less a copy of some C code
from elsewhere.
Tested by rebuilding.

This commit:
commit f5cb8afdd297dd68273d98a10fbfd350dff918d8
Date: Sun Feb 6 22:27:53 2022 -0500
gdb: remove BLOCK_RANGES macro
introduces a potential nullptr dereference in block::ranges, this is
breaking most tests, e.g. gdb.base/break.exp is failing for me.
In the above patch BLOCK_CONTIGUOUS_P is changed from this:
#define BLOCK_CONTIGUOUS_P(bl) (BLOCK_RANGES (bl) == nullptr \
|| BLOCK_NRANGES (bl) <= 1)
to this:
#define BLOCK_CONTIGUOUS_P(bl) ((bl)->ranges ().size () == 0 \
|| (bl)->ranges ().size () == 1)
So, before the commit we checked for the block ranges being nullptr,
but afterwards we just call block::ranges() in all cases.
The problem is that block::ranges() looks like this:
/* Return a view on this block's ranges. */
gdb::array_view<blockrange> ranges ()
{ return gdb::make_array_view (m_ranges->range, m_ranges->nranges); }
where m_ranges is:
struct blockranges *m_ranges;
And so, we see that the nullptr check has been lost, and we might end
up dereferencing a nullptr.
My proposed fix is to move the nullptr check into block::ranges, and
return an explicit empty array_view if m_ranges is nullptr.
After this, everything seems fine again.

There are some subtle differences between architectures, like the size
of a "long" type, and this isn't currently accounted for in
gdb.base/parse_number.exp.
For example, on aarch64 a long type is 8 bytes, whereas a long type is
4 bytes for x86_64. This causes the following FAIL's:
FAIL: gdb.base/parse_number.exp: lang=asm: ptype 0xffffffffffffffff
FAIL: gdb.base/parse_number.exp: lang=auto: ptype 0xffffffffffffffff
FAIL: gdb.base/parse_number.exp: lang=c: ptype 0xffffffffffffffff
FAIL: gdb.base/parse_number.exp: lang=c++: ptype 0xffffffffffffffff
FAIL: gdb.base/parse_number.exp: lang=fortran: p/x 0xffffffffffffffff
FAIL: gdb.base/parse_number.exp: lang=fortran: ptype 0xffffffffffffffff
FAIL: gdb.base/parse_number.exp: lang=go: ptype 0xffffffffffffffff
FAIL: gdb.base/parse_number.exp: lang=local: ptype 0xffffffffffffffff
FAIL: gdb.base/parse_number.exp: lang=minimal: ptype 0xffffffffffffffff
FAIL: gdb.base/parse_number.exp: lang=objective-c: ptype 0xffffffffffffffff
FAIL: gdb.base/parse_number.exp: lang=opencl: ptype 0xffffffffffffffff
FAIL: gdb.base/parse_number.exp: lang=pascal: ptype 0xffffffffffffffff
There are some fortran-specific divergences as well, where 32-bit
architectures show "unsigned int" for both 32-bit and 64-bit integers
and 64-bit architectures show "unsigned int" and "unsigned long" for
32-bit and 64-bit integers.
There might be a bug that 32-bit fortran truncates 64-bit values to
32-bit, given "p/x 0xffffffffffffffff" returns "0xffffffff".
Here's what we get for aarch64:
(gdb) ptype 0xffffffff
type = unsigned int
(gdb) ptype 0xffffffffffffffff
type = unsigned long
(gdb) p sizeof (0xffffffff)
$1 = 4
(gdb) p sizeof (0xffffffffffffffff)
quit
$2 = 8
(gdb) ptype 0xffffffff
type = unsigned int
(gdb) ptype 0xffffffffffffffff
type = unsigned long
And for arm:
(gdb) ptype 0xffffffff
type = unsigned int
(gdb) ptype 0xffffffffffffffff
quit
type = unsigned long long
(gdb) p sizeof (0xffffffff)
quit
$1 = 4
(gdb) p sizeof (0xffffffffffffffff)
quit
$2 = 8
(gdb) ptype 0xffffffff
type = unsigned int
(gdb) ptype 0xffffffffffffffff
type = unsigned long
This patch...
* Makes the testcase iterate over all architectures, thus covering all
the different combinations of types/sizes every time.
* Adjusts the expected values and types based on the sizes of long
long, long and int.
A particularly curious architecture is s12z, which has 32-bit long
long, and thus no way to represent 64-bit integers in C-like
languages.

unwind-secure-frames command
This patch makes use of the support for several stack pointers
introduced by the previous patch to switch between them as needed
during unwinding.
It introduces a new 'unwind-secure-frames' arm command to enable/disable
mode switching during unwinding. It is enabled by default.
It has been tested using an STM32L5 board (with cortex-m33) and the
sample applications shipped with the STM32Cube development
environment: GTZC_TZSC_MPCBB_TrustZone in
STM32CubeL5/Projects/NUCLEO-L552ZE-Q/Examples/GTZC.
The test consisted in setting breakpoints in various places and check
that the backtrace is correct: SecureFault_Callback (Non-secure mode),
__gnu_cmse_nonsecure_call (before and after the vpush instruction),
SecureFault_Handler (Secure mode).
This implies that we tested only some parts of this patch (only MSP*
were used), but remaining parts seem reasonable.

Tom and Simon feedback that there is a test failing in this commit:
commit a5c69b1e49bae4d0dcb20f324cebb310c63495c6
Date: Sun Apr 17 15:09:46 2022 +0800
gdb: fix using clear command to delete non-user breakpoints(PR cli/7161)
Then, I reproduced the same fail with Ubuntu 20.04 as Simon said, and I
fixed the nit in this patch. The root of the problem is not correctly
matching the presentation of internal breakpoints.
In addition, as Pedro pointed out, the original testcase is not portable
in some methods, so this patch fixes this issue and some other
improvements.
Tested on x86_64 ubuntu 20.04.4 and openSUSE Tumbleweed(VERSION_ID="20220425").

This patch adds PowerPC specific tests to verify recording of various
instructions. The first test case checks the ISA 2.06 lxvd2x instruction.
The second test case tests several of the ISA 3.01 instructions. Specifically,
it checks the word and prefixed instructions and some of the Matrix
Multiply Assist (MMA) instructions.
The patch has been run on both Power 10 and Power 9 to verify the ISA
2.06 test case runs on both platforms without errors. The ISA 3.1 test
runs without errors on Power 10 and is skipped as expected on Power 9.

This patch adds support for the PowerPC ISA 3.1 instructions to the PowerPC
gdb instruction recording routines. Case statement entries are added to a
number of the existing routines for recording the 32-bit word instructions.
A few new functions were added to handle the new word instructions. The 64-bit
prefix instructions are all handled by a set of new routines. The function
ppc_process_prefix_instruction() is the primary function to handle the
prefixed instructions. It calls additional functions to handle specific
sets of prefixed instructions. These new functions are:
ppc_process_record_prefix_vsx_d_form(),
ppc_process_record_prefix_store_vsx_ds_form(),
ppc_process_record_prefix_op34(),
ppc_process_record_prefix_op33(),
ppc_process_record_prefix_op32(),
ppc_process_record_prefix_store(),
ppc_process_record_prefix_op59_XX3(),
ppc_process_record_prefix_op42().

Internally at AdaCore, we noticed that the new Windows thread name
code could fail. First, it might return a zero-length string, but in
gdb conventions it should return nullptr instead. Second, an encoding
failure could wind up showing replacement characters to the user; this
is confusing and not useful; it's better to recognize such errors and
simply discard the name. This patch makes both of these changes.

The format for printing the floating point values was changed by commit:
commit 56262a931b7ca8ee3ec9104bc7e9e0b40cf3d64e
Author: Tom Tromey <tromey@adacore.com>
Date: Thu Feb 17 13:43:59 2022 -0700
Change how "print/x" displays floating-point value
Currently, "print/x" will display a floating-point value by first
casting it to an integer type. This yields weird results like:
(gdb) print/x 1.5
$1 = 0x1
...
Bug: https://sourceware.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=16242
The above change results in 417 regression test failures since the expected
Power vector register output no longer match.
This patch updates the expected Altivec floating point register prints to
the hexadecimal format for both big endian and little endian systems. The
patch also fixes a formatting isue with the decimal_vector expected value
assign statements.
The expected VSX vector_register1, vector_register1_vr, vector_register2,
vector_register2_vr variables are updated to include the new float128 entry.
Additionally, the comment in the vsx expect file about the initialization
of the vs registers is updated.
The patch has been tested on Power 10, Power 8 LE and Power 8 BE.

This changes the .gdb_index writer to skip linkage names. This was
always done historically (though somewhat implicitly).

If a variable is passed to function in FORTRAN as an argument the
variable is treated as an array with rank zero. GDB currently does
not support the case for assumed rank 0. This patch provides support
for assumed rank 0 and updates the testcase as well.
Without patch:
Breakpoint 1, arank::sub1 (a=<error reading variable:
failed to resolve dynamic array rank>) at assumedrank.f90:11
11 PRINT *, RANK(a)
(gdb) p a
failed to resolve dynamic array rank
(gdb) p rank(a)
failed to resolve dynamic array rank
With patch:
Breakpoint 1, arank::sub1 (a=0) at assumedrank.f90:11
11 PRINT *, RANK(a)
(gdb) p a
$1 = 0
(gdb) p rank(a)
$2 = 0

While working in gdb/infrun.c:restart_threads, I was wondering what are
the preconditions to call the function. It seems to me that
!step_over_info_valid_p should be a precondition (i.e. if we are doing
an inline step over breakpoint, we do not want to resume non stepping
threads as one of them might miss the breakpoint which is temporally
disabled).
To convince myself that this is true, I have added an assertion to
enforce this, and got one regression in the testsuite:
FAIL: gdb.base/step-over-syscall.exp: vfork: displaced=off: single step over vfork (GDB internal error)
This call to restart_threads originates from handle_vfork_done which
does not check if a step over is active when restarting other threads:
if (target_is_non_stop_p ())
{
scoped_restore_current_thread restore_thread;
insert_breakpoints ();
restart_threads (event_thread, event_thread->inf);
start_step_over ();
}
In this patch, I propose to:
- Call start_step_over before restart_threads. If a step over is already
in progress (as it is the case in the failing testcase),
start_step_over return immediately, and there is no point in restarting
all threads just to stop them right away for a step over breakpoint.
- Only call restart_threads if no step over is in progress at this
point.
In this patch, I also propose to keep the assertion in restart_threads
to help enforce this precondition, and state it explicitly.
I have also checked all other places which call restart_threads, and
they all seem to check that there is no step over currently active
before doing the call.
As for infrun-related things, I am never completely sure I did not miss
something. So as usual, all feedback and thoughts are very welcome.
Tested on x86_64-linux-gnu.

gdb: unbuffer all input streams when not using readline
Issues were reported with some MS-Windows hosts, see the thread
starting here:
https://sourceware.org/pipermail/gdb-patches/2022-March/187004.html
Filed in bugzilla as: PR mi/29002
The problem seems to be that calling setbuf on terminal file handles
is not always acceptable, see this mail for more details:
https://sourceware.org/pipermail/gdb-patches/2022-April/187310.html
This commit does two things, first moving the setbuf calls out of
gdb_readline_no_editing_callback so that we don't end up calling
setbuf so often.
Then, for MS-Windows hosts, we don't call setbuf for terminals, this
appears to resolve the issues that have been reported.

(gdb) FAIL: gdb.multi/multi-re-run.exp: re_run_inf=1: iter=1: runto: run to all_started
The test does:
- Connect to a remote target with inferior 2, continue and stop on the
all_started function
- Connect to a separate remote target / GDBserver instance with inferior 1,
continue and (expect to) stop on the all_started function
The failure seen above happens when trying to continue inferior 1.
What happens is:
- GDB tells inferior 1's remote target to continue
- We go into fetch_inferior_event, try to get an event at random from
the targets
- do_target_wait happens to pick inferior 2's target
- That target return TARGET_WAITKIND_NO_RESUMED, which makes sense:
inferior 2 is stopped, that target has no resumed thread
- handle_no_resumed tries to update the thread list of all targets:
for (auto *target : all_non_exited_process_targets ())
{
switch_to_target_no_thread (target);
update_thread_list ();
}
- When trying to update the thread list of inferior 1's target, it hits
the "Cannot execute this command while the target is running" error.
This target is working in "remote all-stop" mode, and it is currently
waiting for a stop reply, so it can't send packets to update the
thread list at this time.
To handle the problem described in the comment in handle_no_resumed, I
don't think it is necessary to update the thread list of all targets,
but only the event target. That comment describes a kind of race
condition where some target reports a breakpoint hit for a thread and
then its last remaining resumed thread exits, so sends a "no resumed"
event. If we ended up resuming the thread that hit a breakpoint, we
want to ignore the "no resumed" and carry on.
But I don't really see why we need to update the thread list on the
other targets. I can't really articulate this, it's more a gut feeling,
maybe I just fail to imagine the situation where this is needed. But
here is the patch anyway, so we can discuss it. The patch changes
handle_no_resumed to only update the thread list of the event target.
This fixes the test run shown above.
The way I originally tried to fix this was to make
remote_target::update_thread_list return early if the target is
currently awaiting a stop reply, since there's no way it can update the
thread list at that time. But that felt more like papering over the
problem. I then thought that we probably shouldn't be asking the target
to update the thread list unnecessarily.

This commit replaces an earlier commit that worked around the issues
reported in bug PR gdb/28833.
The previous commit just implemented a work around in order to avoid
the worst results of the bug, but was not a complete solution. The
full solution was considered too risky to merge close to branching GDB
12. This improved fix has been applied after GDB 12 branched. See
this thread for more details:
https://sourceware.org/pipermail/gdb-patches/2022-March/186391.html
This commit replaces this earlier commit:

gdb: work around prompt corruption caused by bracketed-paste-mode
Please read that commit for a full description of the bug, and why is
occurs.
In this commit I extend GDB to use readline's rl_deprep_term_function
hook to call a new function gdb_rl_deprep_term_function. From this
new function we can now print the 'quit' message, this replaces the
old printing of 'quit' in command_line_handler. Of course, we only
print 'quit' in gdb_rl_deprep_term_function when we are handling EOF,
but thanks to the previous commit (to readline) we now know when this
is.
There are two aspects of this commit that are worth further
discussion, the first is in the new gdb_rl_deprep_term_function
function. In here I have used a scoped_restore_tmpl to disable the
readline global variable rl_eof_found.
The reason for this is that, in rl_deprep_terminal, readline will
print an extra '\n' character before printing the escape sequence to
leave bracketed paste mode. You might then think that in the
gdb_rl_deprep_term_function function, we could simply print "quit" and
rely on rl_deprep_terminal to print the trailing '\n'. However,
rl_deprep_terminal only prints the '\n' when bracketed paste mode is
on. If the user has turned this feature off, no '\n' is printed.
This means that in gdb_rl_deprep_term_function we need to print
"quit" when bracketed paste mode is on, and "quit\n" when bracketed
paste mode is off.
We could absolutely do that, no problem, but given we know how
rl_deprep_terminal is implemented, it's easier (I think) to just
temporarily clear rl_eof_found, this prevents the '\n' being printed
from rl_deprep_terminal, and so in gdb_rl_deprep_term_function, we can
now always print "quit\n" and this works for all cases.
The second issue that should be discussed is backwards compatibility
with older versions of readline. GDB can be built against the system
readline, which might be older than the version contained within GDB's
tree. If this is the case then the system readline might not contain
the fixes needed to support correctly printing the 'quit' string.
To handle this situation I have retained the existing code in
command_line_handler for printing 'quit', however, this code is only
used now if the version of readline we are using doesn't not include
the required fixes. And so, if a user is using an older version of
readline, and they have bracketed paste mode on, then they will see
the 'quit' sting printed on the line below the prompt, like this:
(gdb)
quit
I think this is the best we can do when someone builds GDB against an
older version of readline.
Using a newer version of readline, or the patched version of readline
that is in-tree, will now give a result like this in all cases:
(gdb) quit
Which is what we want.

In this commit:
commit a6b413d24ccc5d76179bab866834e11fd6fec294
Date: Fri Mar 11 14:44:03 2022 +0000
gdb: work around prompt corruption caused by bracketed-paste-mode
a change was made to GDB to work around bug PR gdb/28833. The
consequence of this work around is that, when bracketed paste mode is
enabled in readline, and GDB is quit by sending EOF, then the output
will look like this:
(gdb)
quit
The ideal output, which is what we get when bracketed paste mode is
off, is this:
(gdb) quit
The reason we need to make this change is explained in the original
commit referenced above. What isn't mentioned in the above commit, is
that the change that motivated this work around was only added in
readline 8, older versions of readline don't require the change.
In later commits in this series I will add a fix to GDB's in-tree copy
of readline (this fix is back-ported from upstream readline), and then
I will change GDB so that, when using the (patched) in-tree readline,
we can have the ideal output in all cases.
However, GDB can be built against the system readline. When this is
done, and the system readline is version 8, then we will still have to
use the work around (two line) style output.
But, if GDB is built against the system readline, and the system
readline is an older version 7 readline, then there's no reason why we
can't have the ideal output, after all, readline 7 doesn't include the
change that we need to work around.
This commit changes GDB so that, when using readline 7 we get the
ideal output in all cases. This change is trivial (a simple check
against the readline version number) so I think this should be fine to
include.
For testing this commit, you need to configure GDB including the
'--with-system-readline' flag, and build GDB on a system that uses
readline 7, for example 'Ubuntu 18.04'. Then run the test
'gdb.base/eof-exit.exp', you should expect everything to PASS.

(gdb) FAIL: gdb.threads/fork-plus-threads.exp: detach-on-fork=off: only inferior 1 left (the program exited)
I can get it to fail quite reliably by pinning it to a core:
$ taskset -c 5 make check TESTS="gdb.threads/fork-plus-threads.exp"
The previous attempt at fixing this was:
https://sourceware.org/pipermail/gdb-patches/2021-October/182846.html
What we see is part due to a possible unfortunate ordering of events
given by the kernel, and what could be considered a bug in GDB.
The test program makes a number of forks, waits them all, then exits.
Most of the time, GDB will get and process the exit event for inferior 1
after the exit events of all the children. But this is not guaranteed.
After the last child exits and is waited by the parent, the parent can
exit quickly, such that GDB collects from the kernel the exit events for
the parent and that child at the same time. It then chooses one event
at random, which can be the event for the parent. This will result in
the parent appearing to exit before its child. There's not much we can
do about it, so I think we have to adjust the test to cope.
After expect has seen the "exited normally" notification for inferior 1,
it immediately does an "info thread" that it expects to come back empty.
But at this point, GDB might not have processed inferior 11's (the last
child) exit event, so it will look like there is still a thread. Of
course that thread is dead, we just don't know it yet. But that makes
the "no thread" test fail. If the test waited just a bit more for the
"exited normally" notification for inferior 11, then the list of threads
would be empty.
So, first change, make the test collect all the "exited normally"
notifications for all inferiors before proceeding, that should ensure we
see an empty thread list. That would fix the first FAIL above.
However, we would still have the second FAIL, as we expect inferior 11
to not be there, it should have been deleted automatically. Inferior 11
is normally deleted when prune_inferiors is called. That is called by
normal_stop, which is only called by fetch_inferior_event only if the
event thread completed an execution command FSM (thread_fsm). But the
FSM for the continue command completed when inferior 1 exited. At that
point inferior 11 was not prunable, as it still had a thread. When
inferior 11 exits, prune_inferiors is not called.
I think that can be considered a GDB bug. From the user point of view,
there's no reason why in one case inferior 11 would be deleted and not
in the other case.
This patch makes the somewhat naive change to call prune_inferiors in
fetch_inferior_event, so that it is called in this case. It is placed
at this particular point in the function so that it is called after the
user inferior / thread selection is restored. If it was called before
that, inferior 11 wouldn't be pruned, because it would still be the
current inferior.

This fixes a build breakage in my recent coff-pe-read.c change.
I'm sorry about this. I don't understand how it happened, because I
definitely built and tested the series on Windows, and I didn't change
it before pushing. Something must have gone wrong on the Windows
build, but I don't know what. I'll investigate and and re-test to be
sure.

This changes another function in coff-pe-read.c to use 'const' more,
and to avoid the use of alloca by instead using std::string.
|
|
coff-pe-read.c uses xsnprintf and alloca, but using std::string is
better, and just as easy. In general I think alloca is something to
be avoided, and unbounded uses especially so.
|
|
coff-pe-read.c casts away const at one spot, but this is easily
replaced by calling bfd_get_filename directly in a couple of debugging
prints.
|
|
coff-pe-read.c iterates over BFD sections using bfd_map_over_sections,
but it's much simpler to use a for-each loop. This allows for the
removal of helper functions and types.
|
|
Pedro pointed out that gdb-add-index is much slower with the new DWARF
indexer. He also noticed that, in some cases, the generated
.gdb_index would have the wrong fully-qualified name for a method.
I tracked this down to a bug in the indexer. If a type could have
methods but was marked as a declaration, the indexer was ignoring it.
However, this meant that the internal map to find the qualified name
was not updated for this container.
