[gdb/testsuite] Use prototype to call libc functions
On openSUSE Tumbleweed (using glibc 2.36), I run into: ... (gdb) print /d (int) munmap (4198400, 4096)^M Invalid cast.^M (gdb) FAIL: gdb.base/break-main-file-remove-fail.exp: cmdline: \ get integer valueof "(int) munmap (4198400, 4096)" ... The problem is that after starting the executable, the symbol has type "void (*) (void)": ... (gdb) p munmap $1 = {<text variable, no debug info>} 0x401030 <munmap@plt> (gdb) start ... (gdb) p munmap $2 = {void (void)} 0x7ffff7feb9a0 <__GI_munmap> ... which causes the "Invalid cast" error. Looking at the debug info for glibc for symbol __GI_munmap: ... <0><189683>: Abbrev Number: 1 (DW_TAG_compile_unit) <189691> DW_AT_name : ../sysdeps/unix/syscall-template.S <189699> DW_AT_producer : GNU AS 2.39.0 <1><1896ae>: Abbrev Number: 2 (DW_TAG_subprogram) <1896af> DW_AT_name : __GI___munmap <1896b3> DW_AT_external : 1 <1896b4> DW_AT_low_pc : 0x10cad0 <1896bc> DW_AT_high_pc : 37 ... that's probably caused by this bit (or similar bits for other munmap aliases). This is fixed in gas on trunk by commit 5578fbf672e ("GAS: Add a return type tag to DWARF DIEs generated for function symbols"). Work around this (for say gas 2.39) by explicitly specifying the prototype for munmap. Likewise for getpid in a couple of other test-cases. Tested on x86_64-linux.
