Remove uses of VLAs, replace with gdb::byte_vector. There might be more
in files that I can't compile, but it's difficult to tell without
actually compiling on all platforms.
Many thanks to the Linaro pre-commit CI for helping find some problems
with an earlier iteration of this patch.

This commit moves aarch64_linux_memtag_matches_p,
aarch64_linux_set_memtags, aarch64_linux_get_memtag, and
aarch64_linux_memtag_to_string hooks (plus the aarch64_mte_get_atag
function used by them), along with the setting of the memtag granule
size, from aarch64-linux-tdep.c to aarch64-tdep.c, making MTE available
on baremetal targets. Since the aarch64-linux-tdep.c layer inherits
these hooks from aarch64-tdep.c, there is no effective change for
aarch64-linux targets.
Helpers used both by aarch64-tdep.c and by aarch64-linux-tdep.c were
moved from arch/aarch64-mte-linux.{c,h} to new arch/aarch64-mte.{c,h}
files.

There are two kinds of MOPS instructions: set instructions and copy
instructions. Within each group there are variants with minor
differences in how they read or write to memory — e.g., non-temporal
read and/or write, unprivileged read and/or write and permutations of
those — but they work in the same way in terms of the registers and
regions of memory that they modify.
The new gdb.reverse/aarch64-mops.exp testcase verifies that MOPS
instructions are recorded and correctly reversed. Not all variants of the
copy and set instructions are tested, since there are many and the record
and replay target processes them in the same way.

The AArch64 MOPS (Memory Operation) instructions provide a standardised
instruction sequence to perform a memset, memcpy or memmove. A sequence is
always composed of three instructions: a prologue instruction, a main
instruction and an epilogue instruction. As an illustration, here are the
implementations of these memory operations in glibc 2.39:

The Arm Architecture Reference Manual says that "the prologue, main, and
epilogue instructions are expected to be run in succession and to appear
consecutively in memory". Therefore this patch disables displaced stepping
on them.
The testcase verifies that MOPS sequences are correctly single-stepped.

Most files including gdbcmd.h currently rely on it to access things
actually declared in cli/cli-cmds.h (setlist, showlist, etc). To make
things easy, replace all includes of gdbcmd.h with includes of
cli/cli-cmds.h. This might lead to some unused includes of
cli/cli-cmds.h, but it's harmless, and much faster than going through
the 170 or so files by hand.

I found a couple of spots where VLAs are in use but where they can
easily be removed.
In one spot, adding 'const' is enough -- and is already done in
similar code elsewhere in the file.
In another spot, one of two arrays will be used, so making the buffer
large enough for both works.

We currently pass frames to function by value, as `frame_info_ptr`.
This is somewhat expensive:
- the size of `frame_info_ptr` is 64 bytes, which is a bit big to pass
by value
- the constructors and destructor link/unlink the object in the global
`frame_info_ptr::frame_list` list. This is an `intrusive_list`, so
it's not so bad: it's just assigning a few points, there's no memory
allocation as if it was `std::list`, but still it's useless to do
that over and over.
As suggested by Tom Tromey, change many function signatures to accept
`const frame_info_ptr &` instead of `frame_info_ptr`.
Some functions reassign their `frame_info_ptr` parameter, like:
void
the_func (frame_info_ptr frame)
{
for (; frame != nullptr; frame = get_prev_frame (frame))
{
...
}
}
I wondered what to do about them, do I leave them as-is or change them
(and need to introduce a separate local variable that can be
re-assigned). I opted for the later for consistency. It might not be
clear why some functions take `const frame_info_ptr &` while others take
`frame_info_ptr`. Also, if a function took a `frame_info_ptr` because
it did re-assign its parameter, I doubt that we would think to change it
to `const frame_info_ptr &` should the implementation change such that
it doesn't need to take `frame_info_ptr` anymore. It seems better to
have a simple rule and apply it everywhere.

It seems like the intention here is to read the contents of the ZA
register and only write part of it. However, there's no actual read of
the ZA register, so it looks like we'll write uninitialized bytes to the
target, for the portion of the raw register where we don't write the
pseudo register. Add a call to raw_read to fix this.
I don't know how to test this though.

gdbarch_deprecated_pseudo_register_write

Change gdbarch_pseudo_register_read_value to take a frame instead of a
regcache. The frame (and formerly the regcache) is used to read raw
registers needed to make up the pseudo register value. The problem with
using the regcache is that it always provides raw register values for
the current frame (frame 0).
Let's say the user wants to read the ebx register on amd64. ebx is a pseudo
register, obtained by reading the bottom half (bottom 4 bytes) of the
rbx register, which is a raw register. If the currently selected frame
is frame 0, it works fine:
(gdb) frame 0
#0 break_here_asm () at /home/smarchi/src/binutils-gdb/gdb/testsuite/gdb.arch/amd64-pseudo-unwind-asm.S:36
36 in /home/smarchi/src/binutils-gdb/gdb/testsuite/gdb.arch/amd64-pseudo-unwind-asm.S
(gdb) p/x $ebx
$1 = 0x24252627
(gdb) p/x $rbx
$2 = 0x2021222324252627
But if the user is looking at another frame, and the raw register behind
the pseudo register has been saved at some point in the call stack, then
we get a wrong answer:
(gdb) frame 1
#1 0x000055555555517d in caller () at /home/smarchi/src/binutils-gdb/gdb/testsuite/gdb.arch/amd64-pseudo-unwind-asm.S:56
56 in /home/smarchi/src/binutils-gdb/gdb/testsuite/gdb.arch/amd64-pseudo-unwind-asm.S
(gdb) p/x $ebx
$3 = 0x24252627
(gdb) p/x $rbx
$4 = 0x1011121314151617
Here, the value of ebx was computed using the value of rbx in frame 0
(through the regcache), it should have been computed using the value of
rbx in frame 1.
In other to make this work properly, make the following changes:
- Make dwarf2_frame_prev_register return nullptr if it doesn't know how
to unwind a register and that register is a pseudo register.
Previously, it returned `frame_unwind_got_register`, meaning, in our
example, "the value of ebx in frame 1 is the same as the value of ebx
in frame 0", which is obviously false. Return nullptr as a way to
say "I don't know".
- In frame_unwind_register_value, when prev_register (for instance
dwarf2_frame_prev_register) returns nullptr, and we are trying to
read a pseudo register, try to get the register value through
gdbarch_pseudo_register_read_value or gdbarch_pseudo_register_read.
If using gdbarch_pseudo_register_read, the behavior is known to be
broken. Implementations should be migrated to use
gdbarch_pseudo_register_read_value to fix that.
- Change gdbarch_pseudo_register_read_value to take a frame_info
instead of a regcache, update implementations (aarch64, amd64, i386).
In i386-tdep.c, I made a copy of i386_mmx_regnum_to_fp_regnum that
uses a frame instead of a regcache. The version using the regcache
is still used by i386_pseudo_register_write. It will get removed in
a subsequent patch.
- Add some helpers in value.{c,h} to implement the common cases of
pseudo registers: taking part of a raw register and concatenating
multiple raw registers.
- Update readable_regcache::{cooked_read,cooked_read_value} to pass the
current frame to gdbarch_pseudo_register_read_value. Passing the
current frame will give the same behavior as before: for frame 0, raw
registers will be read from the current thread's regcache.
Notes:
- I do not plan on changing gdbarch_pseudo_register_read to receive a
frame instead of a regcache. That method is considered deprecated.
Instead, we should be working on migrating implementations to use
gdbarch_pseudo_register_read_value instead.
- In frame_unwind_register_value, we still ask the unwinder to try to
unwind pseudo register values. It's apparently possible for the
debug info to provide information about [1] pseudo registers, so we
want to try that first, before falling back to computing them
ourselves.

Some functions related to the handling of registers in frames accept
"this frame", for which we want to read or write the register values,
while other functions accept "the next frame", which is the frame next
to that. The later is needed because we sometimes need to read register
values for a frame that does not exist yet (usually when trying to
unwind that frame-to-be).
value_of_register and value_of_register_lazy both take "this frame",
even if what they ultimately want internally is "the next frame". This
is annoying if you are in a spot that currently has "the next frame" and
need to call one of these functions (which happens later in this
series). You need to get the previous frame only for those functions to
get the next frame again. This is more manipulations, more chances of
mistake.
I propose to change these functions (and a few more functions in the
subsequent patches) to operate on "the next frame". Things become a bit
less awkward when all these functions agree on which frame they take.
So, in this patch, change value_of_register_lazy and value_of_register
to take "the next frame" instead of "this frame". This adds a lot of
get_next_frame_sentinel_okay, but if we convert the user registers API
to also use "the next frame" instead of "this frame", it will get simple
again.

SME2 defines a new 512-bit register named ZT0, and it is only available
if SME is also supported. The ZT0 state is valid only if the SVCR ZA bit
is enabled. Otherwise its contents are empty (0).

The SME (Scalable Matrix Extension) [1] exposes a new matrix register ZA with
variable sizes. It also exposes a new mode called streaming mode.
Similarly to SVE, the ZA register size is dictated by a vector length, but the
SME vector length is called streaming vetor length. The total size for
ZA in a given moment is svl x svl.
In streaming mode, the SVE registers have their sizes based on svl rather than
the regular vector length (vl).
The feature detection is controlled by the HWCAP2_SME bit, but actual support
should be validated by attempting a ptrace call for one of the new register
sets: NT_ARM_ZA and NT_ARM_SSVE.
Due to its large size, the ZA register is exposed as a vector of bytes, but we
introduce a number of pseudo-registers that gives various different views
into the ZA contents. These can be arranged in a couple categories: tiles and
tile slices.
Tiles are matrices the same size or smaller than ZA. Tile slices are vectors
which map to ZA's rows/columns in different ways.
A new dynamic target description is provided containing the ZA register, the SVG
register and the SVCR register. The size of ZA, like the SVE vector registers,
is based on the vector length register SVG (VG for SVE).
This patch enables SME register support for gdb.

In a target without SVE support, the V registers have a size of 16 bytes,
otherwise they may have a size bigger than 16 bytes (depending on the current
vector length for the Z registers, as they overlap the V registers).
In aarch64-tdep.c:aarch64_store_return_value, the code is laid
out in a way that allocates the buffer with the size of the register, but
only updates the amount of bytes for the particular type we're returning.
This may cause a situation where we have a register size of 32 bytes but
are returning a floating point value of 8 bytes. The temporary buffer
will therefore have 32 bytes, but we'll only update 8 bytes of it.
When we write the entire register back, it will have potentially 24 bytes
of garbage in it.
Fix this by first reading the original contents of the register and then
overriding only the bytes that we need for the return value.

Older gdb's (9, 10, 11 and 12) have a bug that causes them to crash whenever
a target reports the pauth feature string in the target description and also
provide additional register outside of gdb's known and expected feature
strings.
This was fixed in gdb 13 onwards, but that means we're stuck with gdb's out
there that will crash on connection to the above targets.
QEMU has postponed inclusion of the pauth feature string in version 8, and
instead we agreed to use a new feature name to prevent crashing those older
gdb's.
Initially there was a plan to backport a trivial fix all the way to gdb 9, but
given QEMU's choice, this is no longer needed.
This new feature string is org.gnu.gdb.aarch64.pauth_v2, and should be used
by all targets going forward, except native linux gdb and gdbserver, for
backwards compatibility with older gdb's/gdbserver's.
gdb/gdbserver will still emit the old feature string for Linux since it doesn't
report additional system registers and thus doesn't cause a crash of older
gdb's. We can revisit this in the future once the problematic gdb's are likely
no longer in use.
I've added some documentation to explain the situation.

This commit aims to address a problem that exists with the current
approach to displaced stepping, and was identified in PR gdb/22921.
Displaced stepping is currently supported on AArch64, ARM, amd64,
i386, rs6000 (ppc), and s390. Of these, I believe there is a problem
with the current approach which will impact amd64 and ARM, and can
lead to random register corruption when the inferior makes use of
asynchronous signals and GDB is using displaced stepping.
The problem can be found in displaced_step_buffers::finish in
displaced-stepping.c, and is this; after GDB tries to perform a
displaced step, and the inferior stops, GDB classifies the stop into
one of two states, either the displaced step succeeded, or the
displaced step failed.
If the displaced step succeeded then gdbarch_displaced_step_fixup is
called, which has the job of fixing up the state of the current
inferior as if the step had not been performed in a displaced manner.
This all seems just fine.
However, if the displaced step is considered to have not completed
then GDB doesn't call gdbarch_displaced_step_fixup, instead GDB
remains in displaced_step_buffers::finish and just performs a minimal
fixup which involves adjusting the program counter back to its
original value.
The problem here is that for amd64 and ARM setting up for a displaced
step can involve changing the values in some temporary registers. If
the displaced step succeeds then this is fine; after the step the
temporary registers are restored to their original values in the
architecture specific code.
But if the displaced step does not succeed then the temporary
registers are never restored, and they retain their modified values.
In this context a temporary register is simply any register that is
not otherwise used by the instruction being stepped that the
architecture specific code considers safe to borrow for the lifetime
of the instruction being stepped.
In the bug PR gdb/22921, the amd64 instruction being stepped is
an rip-relative instruction like this:
jmp *0x2fe2(%rip)
When we displaced step this instruction we borrow a register, and
modify the instruction to something like:
jmp *0x2fe2(%rcx)
with %rcx having its value adjusted to contain the original %rip
value.
Now if the displaced step does not succeed, then %rcx will be left
with a corrupted value. Obviously corrupting any register is bad; in
the bug report this problem was spotted because %rcx is used as a
function argument register.
And finally, why might a displaced step not succeed? Asynchronous
signals provides one reason. GDB sets up for the displaced step and,
at that precise moment, the OS delivers a signal (SIGALRM in the bug
report), the signal stops the inferior at the address of the displaced
instruction. GDB cancels the displaced instruction, handles the
signal, and then tries again with the displaced step. But it is that
first cancellation of the displaced step that causes the problem; in
that case GDB (correctly) sees the displaced step as having not
completed, and so does not perform the architecture specific fixup,
leaving the register corrupted.
The reason why I think AArch64, rs600, i386, and s390 are not effected
by this problem is that I don't believe these architectures make use
of any temporary registers, so when a displaced step is not completed
successfully, the minimal fix up is sufficient.
On amd64 we use at most one temporary register.
On ARM, looking at arm_displaced_step_copy_insn_closure, we could
modify up to 16 temporary registers, and the instruction being
displaced stepped could be expanded to multiple replacement
instructions, which increases the chances of this bug triggering.
This commit only aims to address the issue on amd64 for now, though I
believe that the approach I'm proposing here might be applicable for
ARM too.
What I propose is that we always call gdbarch_displaced_step_fixup.
We will now pass an extra argument to gdbarch_displaced_step_fixup,
this a boolean that indicates whether GDB thinks the displaced step
completed successfully or not.
When this flag is false this indicates that the displaced step halted
for some "other" reason. On ARM GDB can potentially read the
inferior's program counter in order figure out how far through the
sequence of replacement instructions we got, and from that GDB can
figure out what fixup needs to be performed.
On targets like amd64 the problem is slightly easier as displaced
stepping only uses a single replacement instruction. If the displaced
step didn't complete the GDB knows that the single instruction didn't
execute.
The point is that by always calling gdbarch_displaced_step_fixup, each
architecture can now ensure that the inferior state is fixed up
correctly in all cases, not just the success case.
On amd64 this ensures that we always restore the temporary register
value, and so bug PR gdb/22921 is resolved.
In order to move all architectures to this new API, I have moved the
minimal roll-back version of the code inside the architecture specific
fixup functions for AArch64, rs600, s390, and ARM. For all of these
except ARM I think this is good enough, as no temporaries are used all
that's needed is the program counter restore anyway.
For ARM the minimal code is no worse than what we had before, though I
do consider this architecture's displaced-stepping broken.
I've updated the gdb.arch/amd64-disp-step.exp test to cover the
'jmpq*' instruction that was causing problems in the original bug, and
also added support for testing the displaced step in the presence of
asynchronous signal delivery.
I've also added two new tests (for amd64 and i386) that check that GDB
can correctly handle displaced stepping over a single instruction that
branches to itself. I added these tests after a first version of this
patch relied too much on checking the program-counter value in order
to see if the displaced instruction had executed. This works fine in
almost all cases, but when an instruction branches to itself a pure
program counter check is not sufficient. The new tests expose this
problem.

---------------------
../../../repos/binutils-gdb/gdb/thread.c:86: internal-error: inferior_thread: Assertion `current_thread_ != nullptr' failed.
A problem internal to GDB has been detected,
further debugging may prove unreliable.
Quit this debugging session? (y or n)
We also see failures across the testsuite if the tests get executed on a target
that has native support for the pointer authentication feature. But
gdb.base/break.exp and gdb.base/access-mem-running.exp are two examples of
tests that run into errors and internal errors.
This issue started after commit d88cb738e6a7a7179dfaff8af78d69250c852af1, which
enabled more broad use of pointer authentication masks to remove non-address
bits of pointers, but wasn't immediately detected because systems with native
support for pointer authentication are not that common yet.
The above crash happens because gdb is in the middle of handling an event,
and do_target_wait_1 calls switch_to_inferior_no_thread, nullifying the
current thread. This means a call to inferior_thread () will assert, and
attempting to call get_current_regcache () will also call inferior_thread (),
resulting in an assertion as well.
target_has_registers was one function that seemed useful for detecting these
types of situation where we don't have a register cache. The problem with that
is the inconsistent state of inferior_ptid, which is used by
target_has_registers.
Despite the call to switch_to_no_thread in switch_to_inferior_no_thread from
do_target_wait_1 in the backtrace above clearing inferior_ptid, the call to
ps_xfer_memory sets inferior_ptid momentarily before reading memory:
static ps_err_e
ps_xfer_memory (const struct ps_prochandle *ph, psaddr_t addr,
gdb_byte *buf, size_t len, int write)
{
scoped_restore_current_inferior restore_inferior;
set_current_inferior (ph->thread->inf);
scoped_restore_current_program_space restore_current_progspace;
set_current_program_space (ph->thread->inf->pspace);
scoped_restore save_inferior_ptid = make_scoped_restore (&inferior_ptid);
inferior_ptid = ph->thread->ptid;
CORE_ADDR core_addr = ps_addr_to_core_addr (addr);
int ret;
if (write)
ret = target_write_memory (core_addr, buf, len);
else
ret = target_read_memory (core_addr, buf, len);
return (ret == 0 ? PS_OK : PS_ERR);
}
Maybe this shouldn't happen, or maybe it is just an unfortunate state to be
in. But this prevents the use of target_has_registers to guard against the
lack of registers, since, although current_thread_ is still nullptr,
inferior_ptid is valid and is not null_ptid.
There is another crash scenario after we kill a previously active inferior, in
which case the gdbarch will still say we support pointer authentication but we
will also have no current thread (inferior_thread () will assert etc).
If the target has support for pointer authentication, gdb needs to use
a couple (or 4, for bare-metal) mask registers to mask off some bits of
pointers, and for that it needs to access the registers.
At some points, like the one from the backtrace above, there is no active
thread/current regcache because gdb is in the middle of doing event handling
and switching between threads.
Simon suggested the use of inferior_ptid to fetch the register cache, as
opposed to relying on the current register cache. Though we need to make sure
inferior_ptid is valid (not null_ptid), I think this works nicely.
With inferior_ptid, we can do safety checks along the way, making sure we have
a thread to fetch a register cache from and checking if the thread is actually
stopped or running.
The following patch implements this idea with safety checks to make sure we
don't run into assertions or errors. If any of the checks fail, we fallback to
using a default mask to remove non-address bits of a pointer.
I discussed with Pedro the possibility of caching the mask register values
(which are per-process and can change mid-execution), but there isn't a good
spot to cache those values. Besides, the mask registers can change constantly
for bare-metal debugging when switching between exception levels.
In some cases, it is just not possible to get access to these mask registers,
like the case where threads are running. In those cases, using a default mask
to remove the non-address bits should be enough.
This can happen when we let threads run in the background and then we attempt
to access a memory address (now that gdb is capable of reading memory even
with threads running). Thus gdb will attempt to remove non-address bits
of that memory access, will attempt to access registers, running into errors.
Regression-tested on aarch64-linux Ubuntu 20.04.

metal/kernel mode addresses
At the moment GDB only handles pointer authentication (pauth) for userspace
addresses and if we're debugging a Linux-hosted program.
The Linux Kernel can be configured to use pauth instructions for some
additional security hardening, but GDB doesn't handle this well.
To overcome this limitation, GDB needs a couple things:
1 - The target needs to advertise pauth support.
2 - The hook to remove non-address bits from a pointer needs to be registered
in aarch64-tdep.c as opposed to aarch64-linux-tdep.c.
There is a patch for QEMU that addresses the first point, and it makes
QEMU's gdbstub expose a couple more pauth mask registers, so overall we will
have up to 4 pauth masks (2 masks or 4 masks):
pauth_dmask
pauth_cmask
pauth_dmask_high
pauth_cmask_high
pauth_dmask and pauth_cmask are the masks used to remove pauth signatures
from userspace addresses. pauth_dmask_high and pauth_cmask_high masks are used
to remove pauth signatures from kernel addresses.
The second point is easily addressed by moving code around.
When debugging a Linux Kernel built with pauth with an unpatched GDB, we get
the following backtrace:
#0 __fput (file=0xffff0000c17a6400) at /repos/linux/fs/file_table.c:296

With a patched GDB, we get something a lot more meaningful:

This introduces the set_lval method on value, one step toward removing
deprecated_lval_hack. Ultimately I think the goal should be for some

The "frame at" bit lists 0xfffffffff3a0 except at the last insn, where it
lists 0xfffffffff3b0.
The frame address is calculated here in aarch64_make_prologue_cache_1:
...
unwound_fp = get_frame_register_unsigned (this_frame, cache->framereg);
if (unwound_fp == 0)
return;
cache->prev_sp = unwound_fp + cache->framesize;
...
For insns after the prologue, we have cache->framereg == sp and
cache->framesize == 16, so unwound_fp + cache->framesize gives the wrong
answer once sp has been restored to entry value by the before-last insn.
Fix this by detecting the situation that the sp has been restored.

It's currently not clear how the ownership of gdbarch_tdep objects
works. In fact, nothing ever takes ownership of it. This is mostly
fine because we never free gdbarch objects, and thus we never free
gdbarch_tdep objects. There is an exception to that however: when
initialization fails, we do free the gdbarch object that is not going to
be used, and we free the tdep too. Currently, i386 and s390 do it.
To make things clearer, change gdbarch_alloc so that it takes ownership
of the tdep. The tdep is thus automatically freed if the gdbarch is
freed.
Change all gdbarch initialization functions to pass a new gdbarch_tdep
object to gdbarch_alloc and then retrieve a non-owning reference from
the gdbarch object.
Before this patch, the xtensa architecture had a single global instance
of xtensa_gdbarch_tdep. Since we need to pass a dynamically allocated
gdbarch_tdep_base instance to gdbarch_alloc, remove this global
instance, and dynamically allocate one as needed, like we do for all
other architectures. Make the `rmap` array externally visible and
rename it to the less collision-prone `xtensa_rmap` name.

With the AArch64 Scalable Matrix Extension we have a new TPIDR2 register, and
it will be added to the existing NT_ARM_TLS register set. Kernel patches are
being reviewed here:
https://lore.kernel.org/linux-arm-kernel/20220818170111.351889-1-broonie@kernel.org/
From GDB's perspective, we handle it in a similar way to the existing TPIDR
register. But we need to consider cases of systems that only have TPIDR and
systems that have both TPIDR and TPIDR2.
With that in mind, the following patch adds the required code to support
TPIDR2 and turns the org.gnu.gdb.aarch64.tls feature into a
dynamically-generated target description as opposed to a static target
description containing only TPIDR.
That means we can remove the gdb/features/aarch64-tls.xml file and replace the
existing gdb/features/aarch64-tls.c auto-generated file with a new file that
dynamically generates the target description containing either TPIDR alone or
TPIDR and TPIDR2.
In the future, when *BSD's start to support this register, they can just
enable it as is being done for the AArch64 Linux target.
The core file read/write code has been updated to support TPIDR2 as well.
On GDBserver's side, there is a small change to the find_regno function to
expose a non-throwing version of it.
It always seemed strange to me how find_regno causes the whole operation to
abort if it doesn't find a particular register name. The patch moves code
from find_regno into find_regno_no_throw and makes find_regno call
find_regno_no_throw instead.
This allows us to do register name lookups to find a particular register
number without risking erroring out if nothing is found.
The patch also adjusts the feature detection code for aarch64-fbsd, since
the infrastructure is shared amongst all aarch64 targets. I haven't added
code to support TPIDR2 in aarch64-fbsd though, as I'm not sure when/if
that will happen.

The missing newline causes testsuite issues because the gdb prompt gets output
to an unexpected location.

PR tdep/28796
As reported, we are using some memory read routines that don't handle read
errors gracefully. Convert those to use the safe_* versions if available.
This allows the code to handle those read errors in a more sensible way.

Currently, every internal_error call must be passed __FILE__/__LINE__
explicitly, like:
internal_error (__FILE__, __LINE__, "foo %d", var);
The need to pass in explicit __FILE__/__LINE__ is there probably
because the function predates widespread and portable variadic macros
availability. We can use variadic macros nowadays, and in fact, we
already use them in several places, including the related
gdb_assert_not_reached.
So this patch renames the internal_error function to something else,
and then reimplements internal_error as a variadic macro that expands
__FILE__/__LINE__ itself.
The result is that we now should call internal_error like so:
internal_error ("foo %d", var);
Likewise for internal_warning.
The patch adjusts all calls sites. 99% of the adjustments were done
with a perl/sed script.
The non-mechanical changes are in gdbsupport/errors.h,
gdbsupport/gdb_assert.h, and gdb/gdbarch.py.

This changes GDB to use frame_info_ptr instead of frame_info *
The substitution was done with multiple sequential `sed` commands:
sed 's/^struct frame_info;/class frame_info_ptr;/'
sed 's/struct frame_info \*/frame_info_ptr /g' - which left some
issues in a few files, that were manually fixed.
sed 's/\<frame_info \*/frame_info_ptr /g'
sed 's/frame_info_ptr $/frame_info_ptr/g' - used to remove whitespace
problems.
The changed files were then manually checked and some 'sed' changes
undone, some constructors and some gets were added, according to what
made sense, and what Tromey originally did

registers
The aarch64 port handles W registers as aliases of X registers. This is
incorrect because X registers are 64-bit and W registers are 32-bit.
This patch teaches GDB how to handle W registers as pseudo-registers of
32-bit, the bottom half of the X registers.
Testcase included.
