This commit is the result of running the gdb/copyright.py script,
which automated the update of the copyright year range for all
source files managed by the GDB project to be updated to include
year 2023.
This commit brings all the changes made by running gdb/copyright.py
as per GDB's Start of New Year Procedure.
For the avoidance of doubt, all changes in this commits were
performed by the script.
Add new commands under the "memory-tag" prefix to allow users to inspect,
modify and check memory tags in different ways.
The available subcommands are the following:
- memory-tag print-logical-tag <expression>: Prints the logical tag for a
particular address.
- memory-tag withltag <expression> <tag>: Prints the address tagged with the
logical tag <tag>.
- memory-tag print-allocation-tag <expression>: Prints the allocation tag for
a particular address.
- memory-tag setatag <expression> <length> <tags>: Sets one or more allocation
tags to the specified tags.
- memory-tag check <expression>: Checks if the logical tag in <address>
matches its allocation tag.
These commands make use of the memory tagging gdbarch methods, and are still
available, but disabled, when memory tagging is not supported by the
architecture.
I've pondered about a way to make these commands invisible when memory tagging
is not available, but given the check is at runtime (and support may come and go
based on a process' configuration), that is a bit too late in the process to
either not include the commands or get rid of them.
Ideas are welcome.

gdb/ChangeLog
Update copyright year range in copyright header of all GDB files.
This patch renames the .c source files in gdbsupport to .cc.
In the gdb directory, there is an argument against renaming the source
files, which is that it makes using some git commands more difficult to
do archeology. Some commands have some kind of "follow" option that
makes git try to follow renames, but it doesn't work in all situations.
Given that we have just moved the gdbsupport directory, that argument
doesn't hold for source files in that directory. I therefore suggest
renaming them to .cc, so that they are automatically recognized as C++
by various tools and editors.
The original motivation behind this is that when building gdbsupport
with clang, I get:
CC agent.o
clang: error: treating 'c' input as 'c++' when in C++ mode, this behavior is deprecated [-Werror,-Wdeprecated]
In the gdb/ directory, we make clang happy by passing "-x c++". We
could do this in gdbsupport too, but I think that renaming the files is
a better long-term solution.
gdbserver still does its own build of gdbsupport, so a few changes in
its Makefile are necessary.
gdbsupport/ChangeLog:
* Makefile.am: Rename source files from .c to .cc.
(CC, CFLAGS): Don't override.
(AM_CFLAGS): Rename to ...
(AM_CXXFLAGS): ... this.
* Makefile.in: Re-generate.
* %.c: Rename to %.cc.
gdbserver/ChangeLog:
* Makefile.in: Rename gdbsupport source files from .c to .cc.
