Heap-allocate core_target instances
This gets rid of the core_ops global, and replaces it with heap-allocated core_target instances. In practice, there will only be one such instance, though that will change further ahead as more pieces of multi-target support are merged. Notice that this replaces one heap-allocated object for another, the number of allocations is the same. Specifically, currently we heap-allocate the 'core_data' object, which holds the core's section table. With this patch, that object is made a field of the core_target class, and no longer allocated separately. Note that this bit: - /* Looks semi-reasonable. Toss the old core file and work on the - new. */ - - unpush_target (&core_ops); does not need a replacement, because by the time we get here, the target_preopen call at the top of core_target_open has already unpushed any previous target. gdb/ChangeLog: 2018-05-11 Pedro Alves <palves@redhat.com> * corelow.c (core_target) <core_target>: No longer inline. Initialize m_core_gdbarch, m_core_vec and build the section table here. <~core_target>: New. <core_gdbarch, get_core_register_section>: New methods. <m_core_section_table, m_core_vec, m_core_gdbarch>: New fields, factored out from ... <core_data, core_vec, core_gdbarch>: ... these deleted globals. (core_ops): Delete. (sniff_core_bfd): Add gdbarch parameter. (core_close): Delete, merged into ... (core_target::close): ... here. Delete self. (core_close_cleanup): Delete. (core_target_open): Allocate a core_target on the heap. Use a unique_ptr instead of a cleanup. Bits moved into the core_target ctor. Adjust to use core_target methods instead of globals. (get_core_register_section): Rename to ... (core_target::get_core_register_section): ... this and adjust. (struct get_core_registers_cb_data): New. (get_core_registers_cb): Use it. Use bool. (core_target::fetch_registers, core_target::files_info) (core_target::xfer_partial, core_target::read_description) (core_target::pid_to, core_target::thread_name): Adjust to reference class fields instead of globals. * target.h (struct target_ops_deleter, target_ops_up): New.
