The Python CFLAGS include -DNDEBUG. This was apparently done
intentionally -- setting the flags is done manually because, according
to a comment, python-config passes too many things to the compiler
(which is true).
Per PR python/20445, this patch changes configure so that -DNDEBUG is
only used by release builds. This probably doesn't have very much
effect in practice, but I did see that some Python headers use assert,
so perhaps it will give some safety.
Tested by rebuilding and re-running gdb.python/*.exp on x86-64 Fedora 28.

There was a report on irc that the gdb check for mpfr failed when only
static libraries are available. The issue is that mpfr depends on
gmp, but this is not handled explicitly by gdb.
Ideally upstream would switch to pkg-config. Or even more ideally, we
would incorporate pkg-config into the compiler and not mess with any
of this.
Meanwhile, this changes gdb's configure to add gmp to the link line
when checking for mpfr.

Patch
d82b3862f12 ("compile: Remove non-const reference parameters")
introduced a regression in compile/compile-cplus-types.c. The new_scope
variable in compile_cplus_instance::enter_scope is used after it was
std::moved. This patch fixes it by referring to the back of the vector
where it was moved instead.

Since commit
56bcdbea2bed ("Let gdb.execute handle multi-line commands")
trying to use a command like gdb.execute("show commands") in Python
fails. GDB ends up trying to run the "commands" command.
The reason is that GDB gets confused with the special "commands"
command. In process_next_line, the lookup_cmd_1 function returns the
cmd_list_element representing the "commands" sub-command of "show".
Lower, we check the cmd_list_element to see if it matches various
control commands by name, including the "commands" command. This is
where we wrongfully conclude that the executed command must be
"commands", when in reality it was "show commands".
The fix proposed in this patch removes the comparisons by name, instead
comparing the cmd_list_element object by pointer with the objects
created at initialization time.
Tested on the buildbot, though on a single builder (Fedora-x86_64-m64).

Some Python APIs steal references from their caller, and the refcount
checker supports this via an attribute.
However, in gdb with C++ we have a better idiom available: we can use
std::move on a gdbpy_ref<> instead. This makes the semantics obvious
at the point of call, and is safer at runtime as well, because the
callee's gdbpy_ref<> will be emptied.
This patch changes the reference-stealing code in gdb to use rvalue
references instead.

In the Python code, gdb exceptions may not leak into the Python core.
execute_gdb_command was calling bpstat_do_actions outside of a
TRY/CATCH; which seemed risky. I don't have a test case for this, but
if bpstat_do_actions could ever throw, it could crash gdb.
This patch introduces a new scope in order to preserve the current

This patch started as an observation from valgrind that GDB appeared
to be loosing track of some memory associated with types. An example
valgrind stack would be:
24 bytes in 1 blocks are possibly lost in loss record 419 of 5,361
at 0x4C2EA1E: calloc (vg_replace_malloc.c:711)
by 0x623D26: xcalloc (common-utils.c:85)

by 0x73635D: gdbtypes_post_init(gdbarch*) (gdbtypes.c:5439)
by 0x727590: gdbarch_data(gdbarch*, gdbarch_data*) (gdbarch.c:5230)
by 0x735B99: builtin_type(gdbarch*) (gdbtypes.c:5313)
by 0x514D95: elf_rel_plt_read(minimal_symbol_reader&, objfile*, bfd_symbol**) (elfread.c:542)
by 0x51662F: elf_read_minimal_symbols(objfile*, int, elfinfo const*) (elfread.c:1121)

by 0x8520F5: read_symbols(objfile*, enum_flags<symfile_add_flag>) (symfile.c:794)
When we look in make_function_type we find a call to TYPE_ZALLOC
(inside the INIT_FUNC_SPECIFIC macro). It is this call to TYPE_ZALLOC
that is allocating memory with xcalloc, that is then getting lost.
The problem is tht calling TYPE_ALLOC or TYPE_ZALLOC currently
allocates memory from either the objfile obstack or by using malloc.
The problem with this is that types are allocated either on the
objfile obstack, or on the gdbarch obstack.
As a result, if we discard a type associated with an objfile then
auxiliary data allocated with TYPE_(Z)ALLOC will be correctly
discarded. But, if we were ever to discard a gdbarch then any
auxiliary type data would be leaked. Right now there are very few
places in GDB where a gdbarch is ever discarded, but it shouldn't hurt
to close down these bugs as we spot them.
This commit ensures that auxiliary type data is allocated from the
same obstack as the type itself, which should reduce leaked memory.
The one problem case that I found with this change was in eval.c,
where in one place we allocate a local type structure, and then used
TYPE_ZALLOC to allocate some space for the type. This local type is
neither object file owned, nor gdbarch owned, and so the updated
TYPE_ALLOC code is unable to find an objstack to allocate space on.
My proposed solution for this issue is that the space should be
allocated with a direct call to xzalloc. We could extend TYPE_ALLOC
to check for type->gdbarch being null, and then fall back to a direct
call to xzalloc, however, I think that making this rare case of a
local type require special handling is not a bad thing, this serves to
highlight that clearing up the memory will require special handling
too.
This special case of a local type is interesting as the types owner
field (contained within the main_type) is completely null. While
reflecting on this I looked at how types use the get_type_arch
function. It seems clear that, based on how this is used, it is never
intended that null will be returned from this function. This only
goes to reinforce, how locally alloctaed types, with no owner, are
both special, and need to be handled carefully. To help spot errors
earlier, I added an assert into get_type_arch that the returned arch
is not null.
Inside gdbarch.c I found a few other places where auxiliary type data
was being allocated directly on the heap rather than on the types
obstack. I have fixed these to call TYPE_ALLOC now.
Finally, it is worth noting that as we don't clean up our gdbarch
objects yet, then this will not make much of an impact on the amount
of memory reported as lost at program termination time. Memory
allocated for auxiliary type information is still not freed, however,
it is now on the correct obstack. If we do ever start freeing our
gdbarch structures then the associated type data will be cleaned up
correctly.
Tested on X86-64 GNU/Linux with no regressions.

* eval.c (fake_method::fake_method): Call xzalloc directly for a

The code implementing gdb.objfiles() returns a list of objfiles for the
current program space (the program space of the selected inferior). The
documentation for the gdb.objfiles() Python method, however, states:
Return a sequence of all the objfiles current known to GDB.
That sounds wrong to me. I tried to phrase to be more precise.

While testing my Rust compiler patch to fix the DWARF representation
of Rust enums (https://github.com/rust-lang/rust/pull/54004), I found
a gdb crash coming from one of the Rust test cases.
The bug here is that the new variant support in gdb does not handle
the case where there are no variants in the enum.
This patch fixes the problem in a straightforward way. Note that the
new tests are somewhat lax because I did not want to try to fully fix
this corner case for older compilers. If you think that's
unacceptable, let meknow.
Tested on x86-64 Fedora 28 using several versions of the Rust
compiler. I intend to push this to the 8.2 branch as well.

Printing a GDB Python object is notoriously not helpful:
>>> print(gdb.selected_inferior())
<gdb.Inferior object at 0x7fea59aed198>
>>> print(gdb.objfiles())
[<gdb.Objfile object at 0x7fea59b57c90>]
This makes printing debug traces more difficult than it should be. This
patch provides some repr() implementation for these two types (more to
come if people agree with the idea, but I want to test the water first).
Here's the same example as above, but with this patch:
>>> print(gdb.selected_inferior())
<gdb.Inferior num=1>
>>> print(gdb.objfiles())
[<gdb.Objfile filename=/home/emaisin/build/binutils-gdb-gcc-git/gdb/test>]
I implemented repr rather than str, because when printing a list (or
another container I suppose), Python calls the repr method of the
elements. This is useful when printing a list of inferiors or objfiles.
The print(gdb.objfiles()) above would not have worked if I had
implemented str.
I found this post useful to understand the difference between repr and
str:

There is no reason for 'is_regular_file' to be in common-utils.c; it
belongs to 'filestuff.c'. This commit moves the function definition
and its prototype to the appropriate files.
The motivation behind this move is a failure that happens on certain
cross-compilation environments when compiling the IPA library, due to
the way gnulib probes the need for a 'stat' call replacement. Because
configure checks when cross-compiling are more limited, gnulib decides
that it needs to substitute the 'stat' calls its own 'rpl_stat';
however, the IPA library doesn't link with gnulib, which leads to an
error when compiling 'common-utils.c':

The most simple fix for this problem is to move 'is_regular_file' to
'filestuff.c', which is not used by IPA. This ends up making the
files more logically organized as well, since 'is_regular_file' is a
file operation.
No regressions found.

While trying to create skips for libstdc++, I found myself debugging GDB
