The call to tui_alloc_content in tui_set_locator_info passes
locator->type as the type of the window whose content is being
allocated. This may seem correct but it's actually not because when
this code path actually get executed locator->type has not yet been to
set LOCATOR_WIN so it defaults to 0 i.e. SRC_WIN. Thus we allocate the
content of the locator window as if it was the source window. This
oversight turns out not to be a big deal in practice but the patch that
follows depends on the locator's proc_name and full_name arrays to be
initialized to the empty string which is done by tui_alloc_content if
we pass to it LOCATOR_WIN.
This patch fixes this bug by explicitly passing LOCATOR_WIN to
tui_alloc_content.

* tui/tui-stack.c (tui_set_locator_info): Explicitly pass
LOCATOR_WIN to tui_alloc_content.

On GNU/Linux, if an infcall spawns a thread, that thread ends up with
stuck running state. This happens because:
- when linux-nat.c detects a new thread, it marks them as running,
and does not report anything to the core.
- we skip finish_thread_state when the thread that is running the
infcall stops.
As result, that new thread ends up with stuck "running" state, even
though it really is stopped.
On Windows, _all_ threads end up stuck in running state, not just the
one that was spawned. That happens because when a new thread is
detected, unlike linux-nat.c, windows-nat.c reports
TARGET_WAITKIND_SPURIOUS to infrun. It's the fact that that event
does not cause a user-visible stop that triggers the problem. When
the target is re-resumed, we call set_running with a wildcard ptid,
which marks all thread as running. That set_running is not suppressed
because the (leader) thread being resumed does not have in_infcall
set. Later, when the infcall finally finishes successfully, nothing
marks all threads back to stopped.
We can trigger the same problem on all targets by having a thread
other than the one that is running the infcall report a breakpoint hit
to infrun, and then have that breakpoint not cause a stop. That's
what the included test does.
The fix is to stop GDB from suppressing the set_running calls while
doing an infcall, and then set the threads back to stopped when the
call finishes, iff they were originally stopped before the infcall
started. (Note the MI *running/*stopped event suppression isn't
affected.)
Tested on x86_64 GNU/Linux.

GDB uses a "brk #0" instruction to perform a software breakpoint while
GDBServer uses an illegal instruction. Both instructions should match.
When enabling support for the 'Z0' packet, we let GDBServer insert the
breakpoint instruction instead of GDB. And in case of permanent
breakpoints for example, GDB will check if a breakpoint is inserted in the
inferior with `program_breakpoint_here_p (gdbarch, address)', and
compare the instruction read from the inferior with the breakpoint
instruction.
On AArch64, instructions are always little endian so we need to
represent it as an array of bytes, as done in aarch64-tdep.c.

Last year a patch was submitted/approved/commited to eliminate
symbol_matches_domain which was causing this problem. It was later reverted
because it introduced a (severe) performance regression.
Recap:
(gdb) list
1 enum e {A,B,C} e;
2 int main (void) { return 0; }
3
(gdb) p e
Attempt to use a type name as an expression
The parser attempts to find a symbol named "e" of VAR_DOMAIN.
This gets passed down through lookup_symbol and (eventually) into
block_lookup_symbol_primary, which iterates over the block's dictionary
of symbols:
for (sym = dict_iter_name_first (block->dict, name, &dict_iter);
sym != NULL;
sym = dict_iter_name_next (name, &dict_iter))
{
if (symbol_matches_domain (SYMBOL_LANGUAGE (sym),
SYMBOL_DOMAIN (sym), domain))
return sym;
}
The problem here is that we have a symbol named "e" in both STRUCT_DOMAIN
and VAR_DOMAIN, and for languages like C++, Java, and Ada, where a tag name
may be used as an implicit typedef of the type, symbol_matches_domain ignores
the difference between VAR_DOMAIN and STRUCT_DOMAIN. As it happens, the
STRUCT_DOMAIN symbol is found first, considered a match, and that symbol is
returned to the parser, eliciting the (now dreaded) error message.
Since this bug exists specifically because we have both STRUCT and VAR_DOMAIN
symbols in a given block/CU, this patch rather simply/naively changes
block_lookup_symbol_primary so that it continues to search for an exact
domain match on the symbol if symbol_matches_domain returns a symbol
which does not exactly match the requested domain.
This "fixes" the immediate problem, but admittedly might uncover other,
related bugs. [Paranoia?] However, it causes no regressions (functional
or performance) in the test suite. A similar change has been made
to block_lookup_symbol for other cases in which this bug might appear.
The tests from the previous submission have been resurrected and updated.
However since we can still be given a matching symbol with a different domain
than requested, we cannot say that a symbol "was not found." The error
messages today will still be the (dreaded) "Attempt to use a type name..."

This patch implements the new option "history remove-duplicates", which
controls the removal of duplicate history entries ("off" by default).
The motivation for this option is to be able to reduce the prevalence of
basic commands such as "up" and "down" in the history file. These
common commands crowd out more unique commands in the history file (when
the history file has a fixed size), and they make navigation of the
history file via ^P, ^N and ^R more inconvenient.
The option takes an integer denoting the number of history entries to
look back at for a history entry that is a duplicate of the latest one.
"history remove-duplicates 1" is equivalent to bash's ignoredups option,
and "history remove-duplicates unlimited" is equivalent to bash's
erasedups option.
[ I decided to go with this integer approach instead of a tri-state enum
because it's slightly more flexible and seemingly more intuitive than
leave/erase/ignore. ]

The implementation is pretty straightforward, with the only caveat being
that the "src", "cmd", "next" and "prev" entries get delibrately added
to the completion list even when the TUI has not yet been initialized
(i.e. has never been enabled during the session), since invoking the
"focus" command with these arguments already works when the TUI has not
yet been initialized.

GDB tries to skip prologue for .S files according to .debug_line but it then

The default gdb sysroot now sets itself to "target:". This works for
most remote targets, but when using the simulator, this causes problems
as the sim will attempt to search for that path.
Update the remote-sim logic to skip this leading prefix when it is found
so that the sysroot isn't passed in as an invalid value.

The test
test_histsize_history_setting "99999999999999999999999999999999999" "unlimited"
was failing on i686 because the condition in init_history() for
determining whether to map a large GDBHISTSIZE value to infinity was
long var = strtol (tmpenv);
if (var > INT_MAX)
history_size = unlimited;
but this condition is never true on i686 because INT_MAX == LONG_MAX.
So in order to properly map large out-of-range values of GDBHISTSIZE to
infinity on targets where LONG_MAX > INT_MAX as well as on i686, we have
to instead change the above condition to
if (var > INT_MAX
|| (var == INT_MAX && errno == ERANGE))
history_size = unlimited;

have_ptrace_getregset is a tri-state variable (-1, 0, 1), and we have
some conditions like "if (have_ptrace_getregset)", which is not correct.
I'll explain why it is not correct in the following example. This fix
to this problem to replace the test (have_ptrace_getregset) to test
(have_ptrace_getregset == 1) or (have_ptrace_getregset == -1) etc.
However Doug thinks it hinders readability
https://sourceware.org/ml/gdb-patches/2015-05/msg00692.html so I decide
to add a new enum tribool and change have_ptrace_getregset to it, in
order to make these tests more readable.
have_ptrace_getregset is initialised to -1, and is adjusted to 0 or 1 in
$ARCH_linux_read_description according to the capability of the kernel.
However, it is possible that have_ptrace_getregset is used before it is
set to 0 or 1, which means it is still -1. This is shown below.

Adapt code in remote.c to take into account addressable unit size when
reading/writing memory.
A few variables are renamed and suffixed with _bytes or _units. This
way, it's more obvious if there is any place where we add or compare
values of different kinds (which would be a mistake).
gdb/ChangeLog:
* common/rsp-low.c (needs_escaping): New.
(remote_escape_output): Add unit_size parameter. Refactor to
support multi-byte addressable units. Rename parameters.

Some simulators don't handle permanent breakpoints properly and will
sometimes terminate when hitting such a breakpoint instruction or have
unwanted effects.
When a permanent breakpoint is inserted, GDB will not attempt to insert
other breakpoint locations on top of it, leading to the problem described
above.
By not marking permanent breakpoint locations as inserted, we allow the
insertion of breakpoint locations on top of the permanent ones, preventing
the simulators from running into that situation.

When GDB reads a nonsensical value for the GDBHISTSIZE environment
variable, i.e. one that is non-numeric or negative, GDB then sets its
history size to 0. This behavior is annoying and also inconsistent
with the behavior of bash.
This patch makes the behavior of invalid GDBHISTSIZE consistent with how
bash handles HISTSIZE. When we encounter a null or out-of-range
GDBHISTSIZE (outside of [0, INT_MAX]) we now set the history size to
unlimited instead of 0. When we encounter a non-numeric GDBHISTSIZE we
do nothing.

The HISTSIZE environment variable is generally expected to be read by
shells, not by applications. Some distros for example globally export
HISTSIZE in /etc/profile -- with the intention that it only affects
shells -- and by doing so it renders useless GDB's own mechanism for
setting the history size via .gdbinit. Also, annoyances may arise when
HISTSIZE is not interpreted the same way by the shell and by GDB, e.g.
PR gdb/16999. That can always be fixed on a shell-by-shell basis but it
may be impossible to be consistent with the behavior of all shells at
once. Finally it just makes sense to not confound shell environment
variables with application environment variables.
gdb/ChangeLog:

We still do not handle "set history size unlimited" correctly. In
particular, after writing to the history file, we truncate the history
even if it is unlimited.
This patch makes sure that we do not call history_truncate_file() if the
history is not stifled (i.e. if it's unlimited). This bug causes the
history file to be truncated to zero on exit when one has "set history
size unlimited" in their gdbinit file. Although this code exists in GDB
7.8, the bug is masked by a pre-existing bug that's been only fixed in
GDB 7.9 (PR gdb/17820).
gdb/ChangeLog:
* top.c (gdb_safe_append_history): Do not call
history_truncate_file if the history is not stifled.
gdb/testsuite/ChangeLog:
* gdb.base/gdbinit-history.exp: Add test case to check that
an unlimited history file does not get truncated on exit.

So far the gnu_vector test was limited to "static" aspects of GDB's
vector support, like evaluating vector-valued expressions. This patch
enriches the test and adds checks for GDB's vector ABI support as well.
The new checks particularly verify inferior function calls with vector
arguments and GDB's handling of vector return values.
The test now attempts to compile for the target's "native" architecture,
such that a hardware vector ABI is used if available.
Since GDB has no vector ABI support for x86 and x86_64 targets, most of
the new checks are KFAILed there.
gdb/testsuite/ChangeLog:
* gdb.base/gnu_vector.c: Include stdarg.h and stdio.h.
(VECTOR): New macro. Use it...
(int4, uint4, char4, float4, int2, longlong2, float2, double2):

(struct just_int2, struct two_int2): New structures.
(add_some_intvecs, add_many_charvecs, add_various_floatvecs)
(add_structvecs, add_singlevecs): New functions.
(main): Call add_some_intvecs twice.
* gdb.base/gnu_vector.exp: Drop GCC version check; just attempt
the compile and exit upon failure. Try compiling for the "native"
architecture. Test inferior function calls with vector arguments
and vector return value handling with "finish" and "return".

In some cases tui_show_frame_info() may get called while the inferior's
terminal settings are still in effect. But when we call this function
we absolutely need to have our terminal settings in effect because the
function is responsible for redrawing TUI's windows following a change
in the selected frame or a change in the PC. If our terminal settings
are not in effect, the screen does not get redrawn properly, causing
temporary display artifacts (which can be fixed via ^L).
This scenario happens most prominently when stepping through a program
in TUI while a watchpoint is in effect.
Here is an example backtrace for when tui_show_frame_info() gets called
while target_terminal_is_inferior() == 1:
#1 0x00000000004988ee in tui_selected_frame_level_changed_hook (level=0)
#2 0x0000000000617b99 in select_frame (fi=0x18c9820)
#3 0x0000000000617c3f in get_selected_frame (message=message@entry=0x0)
#4 0x00000000004ce534 in update_watchpoint (b=b@entry=0x2d9a760,
reparse=reparse@entry=0)
#5 0x00000000004d625e in insert_breakpoints ()
#6 0x0000000000531cfe in keep_going (ecs=ecs@entry=0x7ffea7884ac0)
#7 0x00000000005326d7 in process_event_stop_test (ecs=ecs@entry=0x7ffea7884ac0)
#8 0x000000000053596e in handle_inferior_event_1 (ecs=0x7ffea7884ac0)
The fix is simple: call target_terminal_ours_for_output() before calling
tui_show_frame_info() in TUI's frame-changed hook, making sure to
restore the original terminal settings afterwards.
gdb/ChangeLog:
* tui/tui-hooks.c (tui_selected_frame_level_changed_hook): Call
target_terminal_ours_for_output() before calling
tui_show_frame_info(), and restore the original terminal
settings afterwards.

As a user of the target memory read/write interface, the MI code must
adjust its memory allocations to take into account the addressable memory
unitsize of the target.

size.
(mi_cmd_data_write_memory_bytes): Same.

New in v3:
* Change RSP documentation as well. The m, M and X packets now use
lengths in addressable memory units.
New in v2:
* Change wording: use byte for 8-bits chunks and addressable memory unit
for the unit of data associated to a single address.
* Introduce definition of addressable memory unit in the Memory
section.
This patch modifies the manual to clarify the MI, RSP and Python APIs in
regard to reading/writing memory on architectures with addressable
memory unit that are not 8 bits.
Care is taken to use the word "addressable memory unit" or "memory unit"
when referring to one piece of the smallest addressable size on the
current architecture and the word "byte" when referring to an 8-bits
data piece.
For MI, -data-{read,write}-memory are not modified, since they are
deprecated.
gdb/doc/ChangeLog:
* gdb.texinfo (GDB/MI Data Manipulation): Clarify usage of
bytes and memory units for -data-{read,write}-memory-bytes.
(Packets): Same for m, M and X packets.
* python.texi (Inferiors In Python): Same for read_memory and
write_memory.
