section_table_xfer_memory: Replace section name with callback predicate
This patch is motivated by the need to be able to select sections
that section_table_xfer_memory_partial should consider for memory
transfers. I'll use this facility in the next patch in this series.
section_table_xfer_memory_partial() can currently be passed a section
name which may be used to make name-based selections. This is similar
to what I want to do, except that I want to be able to consider
section flags instead of the name.
I'm replacing the section name parameter with a predicate that,
when passed a pointer to a target_section struct, will return
true if that section should be further considered, or false which
indicates that it shouldn't.
I've converted the one existing use where a non-NULL section
name is passed to section_table_xfer_memory_partial(). Instead
of passing the section name, it now looks like this:
auto match_cb = [=] (const struct target_section *s)
{
return (strcmp (section_name, s->the_bfd_section->name) == 0);
};
return section_table_xfer_memory_partial (readbuf, writebuf,
memaddr, len, xfered_len,
table->sections,
table->sections_end,
match_cb);
The other callers all passed NULL; they've been simplified somewhat
in that they no longer need to pass NULL.
gdb/ChangeLog:
* exec.h (section_table_xfer_memory): Revise declaration,
replacing section name parameter with an optional callback
predicate.
* exec.c (section_table_xfer_memory): Likewise.
* bfd-target.c, exec.c, target.c, corelow.c: Adjust all callers
of section_table_xfer_memory.
