Clean up ptid.h/ptid.c.
The ptid_t contructors, accessors and predicates are documented in _three_ places, and each place uses a different wording. E.g, the descriptions in the .c file of the new ptid_lwp_p, ptid_tid_p weren't updated in the final revision like the descriptions in the .h file were. Clearly, switching to a style that has a single central description avoids such issues. Worse, some of the existing descriptions are plain wrong, such as: /* Attempt to find and return an existing ptid with the given PID, LWP, and TID components. If none exists, create a new one and return that. */ ptid_t ptid_build (int pid, long lwp, long tid); The function does nothing that complicated. It's just a simple constructor. So this gets rid of all the unnecessary descriptions, leaving only the ones near the function declarations in the header file, and fixes/clarifies those that remain. gdb/ 2013-10-04 Pedro Alves <palves@redhat.com> * common/ptid.c (null_ptid, minus_one_ptid, ptid_build) (pid_to_ptid, ptid_get_pid, ptid_get_lwp, ptid_get_tid) (ptid_equal, ptid_is_pid, ptid_lwp_p, ptid_tid_p): Replace describing comments with references to ptid.h. * common/ptid.h: Remove intro description of constructors, accessors and predicates. (struct ptid): Reformat. (minus_one_ptid, ptid_build, pid_to_ptid, ptid_get_pid) (ptid_get_lwp, ptid_get_tid, ptid_equal, ptid_is_pid): Change describing comments.
