Support Valgrind attachments broken by the PIE support. * auxv.c: Include gdbcore.h. (procfs_xfer_auxv): Make static. Reduce its comment. Drop its parameters ops, object and annex. Remove their assertions. (ld_so_xfer_auxv, memory_xfer_auxv): New function. * auxv.h (procfs_xfer_auxv): Remove comment. Rename to ... (memory_xfer_auxv): ... here. * linux-nat.c (linux_xfer_partial): Rename procfs_xfer_auxv to memory_xfer_auxv. * procfs.c (procfs_xfer_partial): Likewise. * solib-svr4.c (svr4_relocate_main_executable): New prototype. (svr4_special_symbol_handling): Call svr4_relocate_main_executable. (svr4_solib_create_inferior_hook): Conditionalize the svr4_relocate_main_executable call. gdb/testsuite/ * gdb.base/valgrind-db-attach.exp, gdb.base/valgrind-db-attach.c: New.
