This patch drops gdb's configury support for glibc's mcheck function.
It has been observed to cause false abort()s, because it is
thread-unsafe yet interposes every malloc/free operation. So if any
library transitively used by gdb also uses threads, then these
functions can easily corrupt their own checking data. These days, gcc
ASAN and valgrind provide high quality checking, and mcheck is
apparently itself being slowly deprecated.
So, let's stop linking to it. Attached patch drops the
autoconf/Makefile machinery for both gdb and gdbserver. No
testsuite-visible impact. IMHO not worth mentioning in NEWS.

This changes gdb to highlight source using GNU Source Highlight, if it
is available.
This affects the output of the "list" command and also the TUI source

Highlight is not found.

PR tui/14126 notes that ANSI terminal escape sequences don't affect
the colors shown in the TUI. A simple way to see this is to try the
extended-prompt example from the gdb manual.
Curses does not pass escape sequences through to the terminal.
Instead, it replaces non-printable characters with a visible
representation, for example "^[" for the ESC character.
This patch fixes the problem by adding a simple ANSI terminal sequence
parser to gdb. These sequences are decoded and those that are
recognized are turned into the appropriate curses calls.
The curses approach to color handling is unusual and so there are some
oddities in the implementation.
Standard curses has no notion of the default colors of the terminal.
So, if you set the foreground color, it is not possible to reset it --
you have to pick some other color. ncurses provides an extension to
handle this, so this patch updates configure and uses it when
available.
Second, in curses, colors always come in pairs: you cannot set just
the foreground. This patch handles this by tracking actually-used
pairs of colors and keeping a table of these for reuse.
Third, there are a limited number of such pairs available. In this
patch, if you try to use too many color combinations, gdb will just
ignore some color changes.
Finally, in addition to limiting the number of color pairs, curses
also limits the number of colors. This means that, when using
extended 8- or 24-bit color sequences, it may be possible to exhaust
the curses color table.
I am very sour on the curses design now.
I do not know how to write a test for this, so I did not.

Building with mingw currently fails:
CXX unittests/mkdir-recursive-selftests.o
/home/emaisin/src/binutils-gdb/gdb/unittests/mkdir-recursive-selftests.c: In function ‘void selftests::mkdir_recursive::test()’:

if (mkdtemp (base) == NULL)
^
Commit
e418a61a67a ("Move mkdir_recursive to common/filestuff.c")
moved this code, but also removed the HAVE_MKDTEMP guard which prevented
the mkdtemp call to be compiled on mingw.
We can either put back the HAVE_MKDTEMP ifdef, or import the gnulib
mkdtemp module, which provides the function for mingw. Since the
mkdir_recursive is susceptible to be used on mingw at some point, I
think it would be nice to have it tested on mingw, so I did the latter.
Once built, I tested it on Windows (copied the resulting gdb.exe on a
Windows machine, ran it, and ran "maint selftest mkdir_recursive"). It
failed, because the temporary directory is hardcoded to "/tmp/...". I
therefore added and used a new get_standard_temp_dir function, which
returns an appropriate temporary directory for the host platform.

This commit adds a workaround from gdbserver's gdb_proc_service.h

back as 2001, but it's possibly required for other C libraries so
I've retained it.

configure checks for declarations of free, malloc, and realloc; but
the results are only used in a single spot: utils.c. I think these
checks are long since obsolete, so this patch removes them.
Grepping the entire tree for these HAVE_DECL_ symbols, the only uses
of possible interest to gdb come from bfd/sysdep.h; but this is not
(nor should be) included by gdb. (And furthermore I think the code
there is probably also obsolete.)

When trying to run the update-gnulib.sh script in gdb, I get this:
Error: Wrong automake version (Unescaped left brace in regex is deprecated, passed through in regex; marked by <-- HERE in m/\${ <-- HERE ([^ =:+{}]+)}/ at /opt/automake/1.11.1/bin/automake line 4113.), we need 1.11.1.
Aborting.
Apparently, it's an issue with a regex in automake that triggers a
warning starting with Perl 5.22. It has been fixed in automake 1.15.1.
So I think it's a good excuse to bump the versions of autoconf and
automake used in the gnulib import. And to avoid requiring multiple
builds of autoconf/automake, it was suggested that we bump the required
version of those tools for all binutils-gdb.
For autoconf, the 2.69 version is universally available, so it's an easy
choice. For automake, different distros and distro versions have
different automake versions. But 1.15.1 seems to be the most readily
available as a package. In any case, it's easy to build it from source.
I removed the version checks from AUTOMAKE_OPTIONS and AC_PREREQ,
because I don't think they are useful in our case. They only specify a
lower bound for the acceptable version of automake/autoconf. That's
useful if you let the user choose the version of the tool they want to
use, but want to set a minimum version (because you use a feature that
was introduced in that version). In our case, we force people to use a
specific version anyway. For the autoconf version, we have the check in
config/override.m4 that enforces the version we want. It will be one
less thing to update next time we change autotools version.
I hit a few categories of problems that required some changes. They are
described below along with the chosen solutions.
Problem 1:
configure.ac:17: warning: AM_INIT_AUTOMAKE: two- and three-arguments forms are deprecated. For more info, see:
configure.ac:17: http://www.gnu.org/software/automake/manual/automake.html#Modernize-AM_005fINIT_005fAUTOMAKE-invocation
Solution 1:
Adjust the code based on the example at that URL.
Problem 2 (in zlib/):
Makefile.am: error: required file './INSTALL' not found
Makefile.am: 'automake --add-missing' can install 'INSTALL'
Makefile.am: error: required file './NEWS' not found
Makefile.am: error: required file './AUTHORS' not found
Makefile.am: error: required file './COPYING' not found
Makefile.am: 'automake --add-missing' can install 'COPYING'
Solution 2:
Add the foreign option to AUTOMAKE_OPTIONS.
Problem 3:
doc/Makefile.am:20: error: support for Cygnus-style trees has been removed
Solution 3:
Remove the cygnus options.
Problem 4:
Makefile.am:656: warning: 'INCLUDES' is the old name for 'AM_CPPFLAGS' (or '*_CPPFLAGS')
Solution 4:
Rename "INCLUDES = " to "AM_CPPFLAGS += " (because AM_CPPFLAGS is
already defined earlier).
Problem 5:
doc/Makefile.am:71: warning: suffix '.texinfo' for Texinfo files is discouraged; use '.texi' instead
doc/Makefile.am: warning: Oops!
doc/Makefile.am: It appears this file (or files included by it) are triggering
doc/Makefile.am: an undocumented, soon-to-be-removed automake hack.
doc/Makefile.am: Future automake versions will no longer place in the builddir
doc/Makefile.am: (rather than in the srcdir) the generated '.info' files that
doc/Makefile.am: appear to be cleaned, by e.g. being listed in CLEANFILES or
doc/Makefile.am: DISTCLEANFILES.
doc/Makefile.am: If you want your '.info' files to be placed in the builddir
doc/Makefile.am: rather than in the srcdir, you have to use the shiny new
doc/Makefile.am: 'info-in-builddir' automake option.
Solution 5:
Rename .texinfo files to .texi.
Problem 6:
doc/Makefile.am: warning: Oops!
doc/Makefile.am: It appears this file (or files included by it) are triggering
doc/Makefile.am: an undocumented, soon-to-be-removed automake hack.
doc/Makefile.am: Future automake versions will no longer place in the builddir
doc/Makefile.am: (rather than in the srcdir) the generated '.info' files that
doc/Makefile.am: appear to be cleaned, by e.g. being listed in CLEANFILES or
doc/Makefile.am: DISTCLEANFILES.
doc/Makefile.am: If you want your '.info' files to be placed in the builddir
doc/Makefile.am: rather than in the srcdir, you have to use the shiny new
doc/Makefile.am: 'info-in-builddir' automake option.
Solution 6:
Remove the hack at the bottom of doc/Makefile.am and use
the info-in-builddir automake option.
Problem 7:
doc/Makefile.am:35: error: required file '../texinfo.tex' not found
doc/Makefile.am:35: 'automake --add-missing' can install 'texinfo.tex'
Solution 7:
Use the no-texinfo.tex automake option. We also have one in
texinfo/texinfo.tex, not sure if we should point to that, or move it
(or a newer version of it added with automake --add-missing) to
top-level.
Problem 8:
Makefile.am:131: warning: source file 'config/tc-aarch64.c' is in a subdirectory,
Makefile.am:131: but option 'subdir-objects' is disabled
automake: warning: possible forward-incompatibility.
automake: At least a source file is in a subdirectory, but the 'subdir-objects'
automake: automake option hasn't been enabled. For now, the corresponding output
automake: object file(s) will be placed in the top-level directory. However,
automake: this behaviour will change in future Automake versions: they will
automake: unconditionally cause object files to be placed in the same subdirectory
automake: of the corresponding sources.
automake: You are advised to start using 'subdir-objects' option throughout your
automake: project, to avoid future incompatibilities.
Solution 8:
Use subdir-objects, that means adjusting references to some .o that will now
be in config/.
Problem 9:
configure.ac:375: warning: AC_LANG_CONFTEST: no AC_LANG_SOURCE call detected in body

In my multi-target branch I ran into problems with GDB's terminal
handling that exist in master as well, with multi-inferior debugging.
This patch adds a testcase for said problems
(gdb.multi/multi-term-settings.exp), fixes the problems, fixes PR
gdb/13211 as well (and adds a testcase for that too,
gdb.base/interrupt-daemon.exp).
The basis of the problem I ran into is the following. Consider a
scenario where you have:
- inferior 1 - started with "attach", process is running on some
other terminal.
- inferior 2 - started with "run", process is sharing gdb's terminal.
In this scenario, when you stop/resume both inferiors, you want GDB to
save/restore the terminal settings of inferior 2, the one that is
sharing GDB's terminal. I.e., you want inferior 2 to "own" the
terminal (in target_terminal::is_ours/target_terminal::is_inferior
sense).
Unfortunately, that's not what you get currently. Because GDB doesn't
know whether an attached inferior is actually sharing GDB's terminal,
it tries to save/restore its settings anyway, ignoring errors. In
this case, this is pointless, because inferior 1 is running on a
different terminal, but GDB doesn't know better.
And then, because it is only possible to have the terminal settings of
a single inferior be in effect at a time, or make one inferior/pgrp be
the terminal's foreground pgrp (aka, only one inferior can "own" the
terminal, ignoring fork children here), if GDB happens to try to
restore the terminal settings of inferior 1 first, then GDB never
restores the terminal settings of inferior 2.
This patch fixes that and a few things more along the way:
- Moves enum target_terminal::terminal_state out of the
target_terminal class (it's currently private) and makes it a
scoped enum so that it can be easily used elsewhere.
- Replaces the inflow.c:terminal_is_ours boolean with a
target_terminal_state variable. This allows distinguishing is_ours
and is_ours_for_output states. This allows finally making
child_terminal_ours_1 do something with its "output_only"
parameter.
- Makes each inferior have its own copy of the
is_ours/is_ours_for_output/is_inferior state.
- Adds a way for GDB to tell whether the inferior is sharing GDB's
terminal. Works best on Linux and Solaris; the fallback works just
as well as currently.
- With that, we can remove the inf->attach_flag tests from
child_terminal_inferior/child_terminal_ours.
- Currently target_ops.to_ours is responsible for both saving the
current inferior's terminal state, and restoring gdb's state.
Because each inferior has its own terminal state (possibly handled
by different targets in a multi-target world, even), we need to
split the inferior-saving part from the gdb-restoring part. The
patch adds a new target_ops.to_save_inferior target method for
that.
- Adds a new target_terminal::save_inferior() function, so that
sequences like:
scoped_restore_terminal_state save_state;
target_terminal::ours_for_output ();
... restore back inferiors that were
target_terminal_state::is_inferior before back to is_inferior, and
leaves inferiors that were is_ours alone.
- Along the way, this adds a default implementation of
target_pass_ctrlc to inflow.c (for inf-child.c), that handles
passing the Ctrl-C to a process running on GDB's terminal or to
some other process otherwise.
- Similarly, adds a new target default implementation of
target_interrupt, for the "interrupt" command. The current
implementation of this hook in inf-ptrace.c kills the whole process
group, but that's incorrect/undesirable because we may not be
attached to all processes in the process group. And also, it's
incorrect because inferior_process_group() doesn't really return
the inferior's real process group id if the inferior is not a
process group leader... This is the cause of PR gdb/13211 [1],
which this patch fixes. While at it, that target method's "ptid"
parameter is eliminated, because it's not really used.
- A new test is included that exercises and fixes PR gdb/13211, and
also fixes a GDB issue reported on stackoverflow that I ran into
while working on this [2]. The problem is similar to PR gdb/13211,
except that it also triggers with Ctrl-C. When debugging a daemon
(i.e., a process that disconnects from the controlling terminal and
is not a process group leader, then Ctrl-C doesn't work, you just
can't interrupt the inferior at all, resulting in a hung debug
session. The problem is that since the inferior is no longer
associated with gdb's session / controlling terminal, then trying
to put the inferior in the foreground fails. And so Ctrl-C never
reaches the inferior directly. pass_signal is only used when the
inferior is attached, but that is not the case here. This is fixed
by the new child_pass_ctrlc. Without the fix, the new
interrupt-daemon.exp testcase fails with timeout waiting for a
SIGINT that never arrives.

https://sourceware.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=9425
The only way to fix that that I know of (without changing the kernel)
is to make GDB put inferiors in a separate session (create a
pseudo-tty master/slave pair, make the inferior run with the slave as
its terminal, and have gdb pump output/input on the master end).

This is the previously mentioned patch to get rid of
unstructured/ioctl-based procfs support in procfs.c. Given that support
for structured procfs was introduced in Solaris 2.6 back in 1997 and
we're just removing support for Solaris < 10, there's no point in
carrying that baggage (and tons of support for IRIX and OSF/1 as well)
around any longer.
Most of the patch should be straightforward (removing support for
!NEW_PROC_API, non-Solaris OSes and pre-Solaris 10 quirks).
Only a few points need explanations:
* <sys/syscall.h> was already included unconditionally in most places,
so there's no need to have guards in a few remaining ones.
* configure.host already obsoletes i?86-*-sysv4.2, i?86-*-sysv5, so
NEW_PROC_API detection for those in configure.ac can go.
* I'm still including <sys/procfs.h> with #define _STRUCTURED_PROC 1.
Theoretically, it would be better to include <procfs.h> on Solaris
(which includes that define), but that breaks the build over
<procfs.h> vs. gdb's "procfs.h", and doesn't exist on Linux.
* I've regenerated syscall_table[] in proc-events.c with a small script
from Solaris 10, 11.3, 11.4 <sys/syscall.h>, so there should be no
traces of older Solaris versions and other OSes left.
* prsysent_t and DYNAMIC_SYSCALLS was only used for AIX 5, but AIX
doesn't use procfs.c any longer, so all related code can go.
The patch was generated with diff -w so one can easier see changes
without being distracted by simple reindentations.
So far, it has only been compiled and smoke-tested on
amd64-pc-solaris2.1[01], sparcv9-sun-solaris2.1[01], and
x86_64-pc-linux-gnu. Certainly needs more testing (Solaris 11.3
vs. 11.4, 32-bit gdb, testsuite once I've figured out what's wrong on
Solaris 10 etc.), but it's enough to get a first impression how much
cleanup is possible here.

This second patch introduces mfpr_float_ops, an new implementation
of target_float_ops. This implements precise emulation of target
floating-point formats using the MPFR library. This is then used
to perform operations on types that do not match any host type.
Note that use of MPFR is still not required. The patch adds
a configure option --with-mpfr similar to --with-expat. If use of
MPFR is disabled via the option or MPFR is not available, code will
fall back to current behavior. This means that operations on types
that do not match any host type will be implemented on the host
long double type instead.
A new test case verifies that we can correctly print the largest
__float128 value now.

Given that GCC has obsoleted/removed support for Solaris 9 in GCC 4.9/5 in 2013:
https://gcc.gnu.org/gcc-4.9/changes.html
https://gcc.gnu.org/ml/gcc-patches/2013-05/msg00728.html
and the last gdb version that can be compiled with gcc 4.9 is 7.12.1 only when
configured with --disable-build-with-cxx, it's time to obsolete/remove support
for Solaris < 10.
This patch does this, simplifying configure.nat along the way (only a single
sol2 configuration with variants for i386 and sparc).
Some configure checks for older Solaris versions can go, too, and the check
for libthread_db.so.1 removed:
* Since Solaris 10, dlopen has moved to libc and libdl.so is just a
filter on ld.so.1, so no need to check.
* $RDYNAMIC is already handled above (and is a no-op with Solaris ld
anyway).
Both proc-service.c and sol-thread.c lose support for (Solaris-only)
PROC_SERVICE_IS_OLD.
The attached revised patch has been tested on sparcv9-sun-solaris2.10,
sparcv9-sun-solaris2.11.4, amd64-pc-solaris2.10, amd64-pc-solaris2.11.4,
and x86_64-pc-linux-gnu.
I've also started an i386-pc-solaris2.9 build to check that it really
stops as expected.

Use AX_CXX_COMPILE_STDCXX to detect if the compiler supports C++11,
and if -std=xxx switches are necessary to enable C++11.
We need to tweak AX_CXX_COMPILE_STDCXX a bit though. Pristine
upstream AX_CXX_COMPILE_STDCXX appends -std=gnu++11 to CXX directly.
That doesn't work for us, because the top level Makefile passes CXX
down to subdirs, and that overrides whatever gdb/Makefile may set CXX
to. The result would be that a make invocation from the build/gdb/
directory would use "g++ -std=gnu++11" as expected, while a make
invocation at the top level would not.
So instead of having AX_CXX_COMPILE_STDCXX set CXX directly, tweak it
to AC_SUBST a separate variable -- CXX_DIALECT -- and use '$(CXX)
(CXX_DIALECT)' to compile/link.
Confirmed that this enables C++11 starting with gcc 4.8, the first gcc
release with full C++11 support.
Also confirmed that configure errors out gracefully with older GCC
releases:

If we need to revert back to making C++11 optional, all that's
necessary is to change the "mandatory" to "optional" in configure.ac
and regenerate configure (both gdb and gdbserver).

All platforms on FreeBSD use a shared system call table, so use a
single XML file to describe the system calls available on each FreeBSD
platform.
Recent versions of FreeBSD include the identifier of the current
system call when reporting a system call entry or exit event in the
ptrace_lwpinfo structure obtained via PT_LWPINFO in fbsd_wait. As
such, FreeBSD native targets do not use the gdbarch method to fetch
the system call code. In addition, FreeBSD register sets fetched via
ptrace do not include an equivalent of 'orig_rax' (on amd64 for
example), so the system call code cannot be extracted from the
available registers during a system call exit. However, GDB assumes
that system call catch points are not supported if the gdbarch method
is not present. As a workaround, FreeBSD ABIs install a dummy gdbarch
method that throws an internal_error if it is ever invoked.

FreeBSD.

I wanted to unit test the Rust lexer, so I added a simple unit testing
command to gdb.
The intent is that self tests will only be compiled into gdb in
development mode. In release mode they simply won't exist. So, this
exposes $development to C code as GDB_SELF_TEST.
In development mode, test functions are registered with the self test
module. A test function is just a function that does some checks, and
throws an exception on failure.
Then this adds a new "maint selftest" command which invokes the test
functions, and a new dejagnu test case that invokes it.

Older versions of FreeBSD supported userland threading via a pure
user-space threading library (N threads scheduled on 1 process) and
a N:M model (N threads scheduled on M LWPs). However, modern FreeBSD
versions only support a M:M threading model where each user thread is
backed by a dedicated LWP. This thread target only supports this
threading model. It also uses ptrace to query and alter LWP state
directly rather than using libthread_db to simplify the implementation.
FreeBSD recently gained support for reporting LWP events (birth and death
of LWPs). GDB will use LWP events when present. For older systems it
fetches the list of LWPs in the to_update_thread_list target op to update
the list of threads on each stop.
This target supports scheduler locking by using ptrace to suspend
individual LWPs as necessary before resuming a process.

Multitarget builds currently fail when:
(1) simulator support is enabled (the main --target supports target sim)
(2) powerpc is included in the --enable-targets list
(3) powerpc is not the main/default target (--target)
This is because the powerpc sim provides a non-standard API function
sim_spr_register_name which gdb/rs6000-tdep.c utilizes. Since the sim
does not yet support multitarget, only the sim (if one exists) for the
main target is built. When that target isn't powerpc, this function
is not available leading to linking errors:
rs6000-tdep.c:(.text+0x1e34d): undefined reference to
`sim_spr_register_name'
Fix this by only using that API if the sim linked in is the powerpc
sim.

Since we now rely on PTRACE_EVENT_CLONE being available (added in
Linux 2.5.46), we're relying on NPTL.
This commit removes the support for older LinuxThreads, as well as the
workarounds for vendor 2.4 kernels with NPTL backported.
- Rely on tkill being available.
- Assume gdb doesn't get cancel signals.
- Remove code that checks the LinuxThreads restart and cancel signals
in the inferior.
- Assume that __WALL is available.
- Assume that non-leader threads report WIFEXITED.
- Thus, no longer need to send signal 0 to check whether threads are
still alive.
- Update comments throughout.
Tested on x86_64 Fedora 20, native and gdbserver.

Building in C++ mode issues ~40 warnings like this:
../../src/gdb/linux-nat.c: In function ‘int linux_handle_extended_wait(lwp_info*, int, int)’:
../../src/gdb/linux-nat.c:2016:51: warning: invalid conversion from ‘int’ to ‘__ptrace_request’ [-fpermissive]
ptrace (PTRACE_GETEVENTMSG, pid, 0, &new_pid);
The issue is that in glibc, ptrace's first parameter is an enum.
That's not a problem if we pick the PTRACE_XXX requests from
sys/ptrace.h, as those will be values of the corresponding enum.
However, we have fallback definitions for PTRACE_XXX symbols when the
system headers miss them (such as PTRACE_GETEVENTMSG above), and those
are plain integer constants. E.g., nat/linux-ptrace.h:
#define PTRACE_GETEVENTMSG 0x4201
One idea would be to fix this by defining those fallbacks like:
-#define PTRACE_GETEVENTMSG 0x4201
+#define PTRACE_GETEVENTMSG ((enum __ptrace_request) 0x4201)
However, while glibc's ptrace uses enum __ptrace_request for first
parameter:
extern long int ptrace (enum __ptrace_request __request, ...) __THROW;
other libc's, like e.g., Android's bionic do not -- in that case, the
first parameter is int:
long ptrace(int request, pid_t pid, void * addr, void * data);
So the fix I came up is to make configure/ptrace.m4 also detect the
type of the ptrace's first parameter and defin PTRACE_TYPE_ARG1, as
already does the for parameters 3-4, and then simply wrap ptrace with
a macro that casts the first argument to the detected type. (I'm
leaving adding a nicer wrapper for when we drop building in C).
While this adds the wrapper, GNU/Linux files won't use it until the
next patch, which makes all native GNU/Linux files include
gdb_ptrace.h.

Converting GDB to be a C++ program, I stumbled on 'basename' issues,
like:
src/gdb/../include/ansidecl.h:169:64: error: new declaration ‘char* basename(const char*)’
/usr/include/string.h:597:26: error: ambiguates old declaration ‘const char* basename(const char*)’
which I believe led to this bit in gold's configure.ac:
dnl We have to check these in C, not C++, because autoconf generates
dnl tests which have no type information, and current glibc provides
dnl multiple declarations of functions like basename when compiling
dnl with C++.
AC_CHECK_DECLS([basename, ffs, asprintf, vasprintf, snprintf, vsnprintf, strverscmp])
These checks IIUC intend to generate all the HAVE_DECL_FOO symbols
that libiberty.h and ansidecl.h check.
GDB is missing these checks currently, which results in the conflict
shown above.
This adds an m4 file that both GDB and GDBserver's configury use to
pull in the autoconf checks that libiberty clients needs done in order
to use these libiberty.h/ansidecl.h.

This patch is to teach both GDB and GDBServer to detect 64-bit inferior
correctly. We find a problem that GDBServer is unable to detect on a
e5500 core processor. Current GDBServer assumes that MSR is a 64-bit
register, but MSR is a 32-bit register in Book III-E. This patch is
to fix this problem by checking the right bit in MSR, in order to handle
both Book III-S and Book III-E. In order to detect Book III-S and
Book III-E, we check the PPC_FEATURE_BOOKE from the host's HWCAP (by
getauxval on glibc >= 2.16. If getauxval doesn't exist, we implement
the fallback by parsing /proc/self/auxv), because it should an invariant
on the same machine cross different processes.
In order to share code, I add nat/ppc-linux.c for both GDB and
GDBserver side.

The problem here is that if a thread other than gdb's main thread
gets a SIGCHLD (it's an asynchronous signal so the kernel will
essentially pick a random thread) then gdb will hang if it is
in sigsuspend when the SIGCHLD is delivered. The other thread
will see the signal and the sigsuspend won't "wake up".
Guile and libgc should be blocking SIGCHLD in their threads,
but we need to work with Guile 2.0 and libgc 7.4.
The problem first shows up in libgc 7.4 because it is the first
release that enables multiple marker threads by default.

PR 17185 describes a problem with using gdb+guile with libgc 7.4.0.
The symptom is a hang in sigsuspend.
[The thread referenced in the PR has the details.]
It's not clear what the right fix is, or even where the bug is yet.
This patch applies the same workaround Guile has applied.

This commit wraps calls to the demangler with a segmentation fault
handler. The first time a segmentation fault is caught a core file
is generated and the user is prompted to file a bug and offered the
choice to exit or to continue their GDB session. A maintainence
option is provided to allow the user to disable the crash handler
if required.

gdb already unconditionally includes stddef.h in many places.
I think there is no reason to check for its existence.
Also, Zack Weinberg's header file survey agrees:
http://hacks.owlfolio.org/header-survey/
This patch removes the configure check and the inclusion guards.
It also removes a redundant inclusion that I noticed in defs.h.
2013-11-18 Tom Tromey <tromey@redhat.com>
* config.in: Rebuild.
* configure: Rebuild.
* configure.ac: Don't check for stddef.h.
* defs.h: Unconditionally include stddef.h. Remove duplicate
inclusion.

This removes gdb_dirent.h and updates the code to use dirent.h
instead. It also removes the now-useless configure checks.
2013-11-18 Tom Tromey <tromey@redhat.com>
* common/common.m4 (GDB_AC_COMMON): Don't use AC_HEADER_DIRENT.
* common/gdb_dirent.h: Remove.
* common/filestuff.c: Use dirent.h.
* common/linux-osdata.c: Use dirent.h.
(NAMELEN): Define.
* config.in: Rebuild.
* configure: Rebuild.
* configure.ac: Don't use AC_HEADER_DIRENT.
* linux-fork.c: Use dirent.h
* linux-nat.c: Use dirent.h.
* nto-procfs.c: Use dirent.h.
* procfs.c: Use dirent.h.
2013-11-18 Tom Tromey <tromey@redhat.com>
* config.in: Rebuild.
* configure: Rebuild.
* configure.ac: Don't use AC_HEADER_DIRENT.

My grepping around showed that HAVE_MULTIPLE_PROC_FDS is only ever
mentioned in a comment in configure.ac. Since the macro is long dead,
let's remove the last mention.
2013-11-08 Tom Tromey <tromey@redhat.com>
* configure: Rebuild.
* configure.ac: Remove mentions of HAVE_MULTIPLE_PROC_FDS.

Now that the configury needed for the "common" and "target"
directories is in common.m4, some code in gdb's configure.ac is
redundant.
I ran this script after making an "ID" file using mkid:
sed -n 's/^.*\(HAVE_[A-Z0-9_]*\).*$/\1/p' config.in |
while read x; do
echo ===== $x
gid $x | egrep -v '^(testsuite|gnulib|common|target|gdbserver)/'
done
This finds all the spots using HAVE_ defines, and, more importantly,
makes it clear which defines aren't used in the main parts of gdb.
From this I came up with this patch to remove all the unused bits.
There are a few that are subtly used -- for example the configure
script sometimes checks internal configure cache variables, meaning
some checks cannot be removed.
2013-11-08 Tom Tromey <tromey@redhat.com>
* configure, config.in: Rebuild.
* configure.ac: Remove unused configury.
