There is a call to update_definedness between code that evaluates an
assignment expression value and code that transfers symbol
attributes. When script assignment expressions contain DEFINED, that
can mean the wrong symbol type is copied. This patch tracks symbols
read during expression evaluation, rather than examining the
expression and re-evaluating conditionals. Not only does this
simplify the code, it also means ld can now copy symbol types in more
complex expressions.
An unfortunate side effect of copying symbol type for more complex
expressions affects mmix, which uses
PROVIDE (Main = DEFINED (Main) ? Main : (DEFINED (_start) ? _start : _start.));
in a default script. So now _start or _start. symbol type may be
copied, losing the function type specially set up for Main. This can
be avoided by making bfd_copy_link_hash_symbol_type do nothing for
mmix.

The fix for PR 19291 broke some other cases where -r is used with scripts,
as reported in PR 22266. The original fix for PR 22266 ended up breaking
many cases for REL targets, where the addends are stored in the section data,
and are not being adjusted properly.
The problem was basically that in a relocatable output file (ET_REL),
symbol values are supposed to be relative to the start address of their
section. Usually in a relocatable file, all sections start at 0, so the
failure to get this right is often irrelevant, but with a linker script,
we occasionally see an output section whose starting address is not 0,
and gold would occasionally write a symbol with its relocated value instead
of its section-relative value.
This patch reverts the recent fix for PR 22266 as well as my original fix
for PR 19291. The original fix moved the symbol value adjustment to
write_local_symbols, but neglected to undo a few places where the adjustment
was also being applied, resulting in an occasional double adjustment. The
more recent fix removed those other adjustments, but then failed to
re-account for the adjustment when rewriting the relocations on REL targets.
With the old attempts reverted, we now apply the symbol value adjustment to
the one case that had been missed (non-section symbols in merge sections).
But now we also need to account for the adjustment when rewriting the addends
for RELA relocations.

There is a recurring pattern in assembly files generated by a compiler
where a lot of jumps in a function are going to the same place. When
these jumps are relaxed with trampolines the assembler generates a
separate jump thread from each source.
Create an index of trampoline jump targets for each segment and see if a
jump being relaxed goes to a location from that index, in which case
replace its target with a location of existing trampoline jump that
results in the shortest path to the original target.

Replace linked list of trampoline frags with an ordered array, so that
instead of indexing fixups trampolines could be indexed. Keep each array
in the trampoline_seg structure, so there's no need to rebuild it for
every new processed segment. Don't run relaxation for each trampoline
frag, instead run it for each fixup in the current segment that needs
relaxation at the beginning of each relaxation pass. This way the
complexity of this process drops from about O(n^2 * m) to about
O(log n * m), where n is the number of trampoline frags and m is the
number of fixups that need relaxation in the segment.

The following patch introduced a new feature related to Ada exception
catchpoints:
commit e547c119d043f2ecffb70452020ab9150d083a91
Author: Joel Brobecker <brobecker@adacore.com>
Date: Fri Nov 24 17:09:42 2017 -0500
Subject: (Ada) provide the exception message when hitting an exception catchpoint
Unfortunately, the patch left 2 errors in gdb.ada/mi_catch_ex.exp,
both inside the "continue_to_exception" function:
1. The exception message on the console can include the exception
message, and thus this patch adjust the expected output in
the corresponding gdb_expect call to allow it;
to allow it.
2. There was a TCL syntax confusion in "$exception_name(..."
that caused TCL to evaluate "exception_name as an array,
rather than as a variable. This patch fixes this by escaping
the '(' (and the corresponding closing parenthesis, for
consistency).
gdb/testsuite/ChangeLog:
* gdb.ada/mi_catch_ex.exp (continue_to_exception): Adjust
expected output in gdb_expect call to allow the exception
message to be present as well. Fix syntax confusion to avoid
TCL thinking that exception_name is an array.
Tested on x86_64-linux, with:
DejaGnu version 1.6
Expect version 5.45
Tcl version 8.6

While playing with valgrind, I noticed that with Python 3, the progname

Switching spu_software_single_step to use a regcache instead of a frame:
https://sourceware.org/ml/gdb-patches/2016-11/msg00355.html
cause a serious regression to SPU single-stepping.
There were two separate problems:
- SPU_LSLR_REGNUM is a pseudo register, so we must use the "cooked"
regcache methods instead of the "raw" ones to access it.
- When accessing a branch target register, we must only use the first
four bytes of the 16-byte vector register. This was done automatically
by the frame routines, but not by the regcache routines.

85 26 STAP_PROBE1(probe, foo, (%rsp))
It took me a while to figure out where this SIGILL is coming from.
Initially I thought it was something related to writing registers to
the inferior when dealing with probe arguments, but I discarded this
since the arguments were not touching any registers.
In the end, this was a mistake that was introduced during the review
process of the patch. When setting/clearing a SystemTap probe's
semaphore, the code was using 'm_address' (which refers the probe's
address) instead of 'm_sem_addr' (which refers to the semaphore's
address). This caused GDB to write a bogus value in the wrong memory
position, which in turn caused the SIGILL.
I am pushing this patch to correct the mistake.
On a side note: I told Pedro that the BuildBot hadn't caught the
failure during my try build, and for a moment there was a suspicion
that the BuildBot might be at fault here. However, I investigate this
and noticed that I only did one try build, with a patch that was
correctly using 'm_sem_addr' where applicable, and therefore no
failure should have happened indeed. I probably should have requested
another try build after addressing the review's comments, but they
were mostly basic and I didn't think it was needed. Oh, well.

The support for setting breakpoint in functions with ABI tags patch
will add a use of SYMBOL_HASH_NEXT in cp-support.c, which fails to
compile with:
src/gdb/cp-support.c:38:0:
src/gdb/cp-support.c: In function ‘unsigned int cp_search_name_hash(const char*)’:
src/gdb/../include/safe-ctype.h:148:20: error: ‘do_not_use_tolower_with_safe_ctype’ was not declared in this scope
#define tolower(c) do_not_use_tolower_with_safe_ctype
^
src/gdb/minsyms.h:174:18: note: in expansion of macro ‘tolower’
((hash) * 67 + tolower ((unsigned char) (c)) - 113)
^
src/gdb/cp-support.c:1677:14: note: in expansion of macro ‘SYMBOL_HASH_NEXT’
hash = SYMBOL_HASH_NEXT (hash, *string);
^
This fixes the problem before it happens.
I was somewhat worried about whether this might have an impact with
languages that are case insensitive, but I convinced myself that it
doesn't. As bonus, this improves GDB's minsym interning performance a
bit (3%-10%). See
<https://sourceware.org/ml/gdb/2017-11/msg00021.html>.
gdb/ChangeLog:
2017-11-25 Pedro Alves <palves@redhat.com>
* dictionary.c: Include "safe-ctype.h".
* minsyms.c: Include "safe-ctype.h".
* minsyms.c (SYMBOL_HASH_NEXT): Use TOLOWER instead of tolower.

Earlier while working on the big completer rework series, I managed to
break
(gdb) [TAB]
locally, and make GDB crash, but only notice a few weeks down the
road, because we have no test for that...
I also noticed that:
(gdb) [TAB]
didn't work (didn't show all commands as matches), even though
entering a command with leading whitespace works:
(gdb) help
This commit fixes the latter and adds a testcase that covers both
issues.
The gdb.base/completion.exp change is necessary because the new test
has a file name that also starts with "gdb.base/complet", making that
particular test ambiguous. Adding another letter disambiguates.
gdb/ChangeLog:
2017-11-25 Pedro Alves <palves@redhat.com>
* completer.c (complete_line_internal_1): Skip spaces until the
start of the command.
gdb/testsuite/ChangeLog:

* gdb.base/complete-empty.exp: New file.
* gdb.base/completion.exp: Adjust.

This exercises the special handling C++ operators require in several
places in the linespec parser, both the linespec and explicit location
completers, symbol lookup, etc. Particularly, makes sure all that
works without quoting.
Note that despite the apparent smallish size, this adds thousands of
tests to the testsuite, due to combination explosion (linespecs,
explicit locations, tab completion, complete command, completion at
different points in each function, etc.)
Grows the gdb.linespec/ tests like this:
-# of expected passes 3464
+# of expected passes 7823
