Honestly, I'm unable to grok it either. This patch re-indents it in a

Since we build with a C++ compiler now, I don't think this is relevant.

that this functionality is now integrated in AC_PROG_CC, which we
already call. So it might not even make a difference.

GDB currently doesn't build on 32-bit Solaris:
* On Solaris 11.4/x86:
In file included from /usr/include/sys/procfs.h:26,
from /vol/src/gnu/gdb/hg/master/dist/gdb/i386-sol2-nat.c:24:
/usr/include/sys/old_procfs.h:31:2: error: #error "Cannot use procfs in the large file compilation environment"
#error "Cannot use procfs in the large file compilation environment"
^~~~~
* On Solaris 11.3/x86 there are several more instances of this.
The interaction between procfs and large-file support historically has
been a royal mess on Solaris:
* There are two versions of the procfs interface:
** The old ioctl-based /proc, deprecated and not used any longer in
either gdb or binutils.
** The `new' (introduced in Solaris 2.6, 1997) structured /proc.
* There are two headers one can possibly include:
** <procfs.h> which only provides the structured /proc, definining
_STRUCTURED_PROC=1 and then including ...
** <sys/procfs.h> which defaults to _STRUCTURED_PROC=0, the ioctl-based
/proc, but provides structured /proc if _STRUCTURED_PROC == 1.
* procfs and the large-file environment didn't go well together:
** Until Solaris 11.3, <sys/procfs.h> would always #error in 32-bit
compilations when the large-file environment was active
(_FILE_OFFSET_BITS == 64).
** In both Solaris 11.4 and Illumos, this restriction was lifted for
structured /proc.
So one has to be careful always to define _STRUCTURED_PROC=1 when
testing for or using <sys/procfs.h> on Solaris. As the errors above
show, this isn't always the case in binutils-gdb right now.
Also one may need to disable large-file support for 32-bit compilations
on Solaris. config/largefile.m4 meant to do this by wrapping the
AC_SYS_LARGEFILE autoconf macro with appropriate checks, yielding
ACX_LARGEFILE. Unfortunately the macro doesn't always succeed because
it neglects the _STRUCTURED_PROC part.
To make things even worse, since GCC 9 g++ predefines
_FILE_OFFSET_BITS=64 on Solaris. So even if largefile.m4 deciced not to
enable large-file support, this has no effect, breaking the gdb build.
This patch addresses all this as follows:
* All tests for the <sys/procfs.h> header are made with
_STRUCTURED_PROC=1, the definition going into the various config.h
files instead of having to make them (and sometimes failing) in the
affected sources.
* To cope with the g++ predefine of _FILE_OFFSET_BITS=64,
-U_FILE_OFFSET_BITS is added to various *_CPPFLAGS variables. It had
been far easier to have just
#undef _FILE_OFFSET_BITS
in config.h, but unfortunately such a construct in config.in is
commented by config.status irrespective of indentation and whitespace
if large-file support is disabled. I found no way around this and
putting the #undef in several global headers for bfd, binutils, ld,
and gdb seemed way more invasive.
* Last, the applicability check in largefile.m4 was modified only to
disable largefile support if really needed. To do so, it checks if
<sys/procfs.h> compiles with _FILE_OFFSET_BITS=64 defined. If it
doesn't, the disabling only happens if gdb exists in-tree and isn't
disabled, otherwise (building binutils from a tarball), there's no
conflict.
What initially confused me was the check for $plugins here, which
originally caused the disabling not to take place. Since AC_PLUGINGS
does enable plugin support if <dlfcn.h> exists (which it does on
Solaris), the disabling never happened.
I could find no explanation why the linker plugin needs large-file
support but thought it would be enough if gld and GCC's lto-plugin
agreed on the _FILE_OFFSET_BITS value. Unfortunately, that's not
enough: lto-plugin uses the simple-object interface from libiberty,
which includes off_t arguments. So to fully disable large-file
support would mean also disabling it in libiberty and its users: gcc
and libstdc++-v3. This seems highly undesirable, so I decided to
disable the linker plugin instead if large-file support won't work.
The patch allows binutils+gdb to build on i386-pc-solaris2.11 (both
Solaris 11.3 and 11.4, using GCC 9.3.0 which is the worst case due to
predefined _FILE_OFFSET_BITS=64). Also regtested on
amd64-pc-solaris2.11 (again on Solaris 11.3 and 11.4),
x86_64-pc-linux-gnu and i686-pc-linux-gnu.

I recently stumbled on this code mentioning Linux kernel 2.6.25, and
thought it could be time for some spring cleaning (newer GDBs probably
don't need to supports 12-year old kernels). I then found that the
"legacy" case is probably broken anyway, which gives an even better
motivation for its removal.
In short, this patch removes the configure checks that check if
user_regs_struct contains the fs_base/gs_base fields and adjusts all
uses of the HAVE_STRUCT_USER_REGS_STRUCT_{FS,GS}_BASE macros. The
longer explanation/rationale follows.
Apparently, Linux kernels since 2.6.25 (that's from 2008) have been
reliably providing fs_base and gs_base as part of user_regs_struct.
Commit df5d438e33d7 in the Linux kernel [1] seems related. This means
that we can get these values by reading registers with PTRACE_GETREGS.
Previously, these values were obtained using a separate
PTRACE_ARCH_PRCTL ptrace call.
First, I'm not even sure the configure check was really right in the
first place.
The user_regs_struct used by GDB comes from
/usr/include/x86_64-linux-gnu/sys/user.h (or equivalent on other
distros) and is provided by glibc. glibc has had the fs_base/gs_base
fields in there for a very long time, at least since this commit from
2001 [2]. The Linux kernel also has its version of user_regs_struct,
which I think was exported to user-space at some point. It included the
fs_base/gs_base fields since at least this 2002 commit [3]. In any
case, my conclusion is that the fields were there long before the
aforementioned Linux kernel commit. The kernel commit didn't add these
fields, it only made sure that they have reliable values when obtained
with PTRACE_GETREGS.
So, checking for the presence of the fs_base/gs_base fields in struct
user_regs_struct doesn't sound like a good way of knowing if we can
reliably get the fs_base/gs_base values from PTRACE_GETREGS. My guess
is that if we were using that strategy on a < 2.6.25 kernel, things
would not work correctly:
- configure would find that the user_regs_struct has the fs_base/gs_base
fields (which are probided by glibc anyway)
- we would be reading the fs_base/gs_base values using PTRACE_GETREGS,
for which the kernel would provide unreliable values
Second, I have tried to see how things worked by forcing GDB to not use
fs_base/gs_base from PTRACE_GETREGS (forcing it to use the "legacy"
code, by configuring with
ac_cv_member_struct_user_regs_struct_gs_base=no ac_cv_member_struct_user_regs_struct_fs_base=no
Doing so breaks writing registers back to the inferior. For example,
calling an inferior functions gives an internal error:

The problem seems to be that amd64_linux_nat_target::store_registers
calls amd64_native_gregset_supplies_p to know whether gregset provides
fs_base. When !HAVE_STRUCT_USER_REGS_STRUCT_FS_BASE,
amd64_native_gregset_supplies_p returns false. store_registers
therefore assumes that it must be an "xstate" register. This is of
course wrong, and that leads to the failed assertion when
i387_collect_xsave doesn't recognize the register.
amd64_linux_nat_target::store_registers could probably be fixed to
handle this case, but I don't think it's worth it, given that it would
only be to support very old kernels.

I stumbled on this snippet in nat/gdb_ptrace.h:
/* Some systems, in particular DEC OSF/1, Digital Unix, Compaq Tru64
or whatever it's called these days, don't provide a prototype for
ptrace. Provide one to silence compiler warnings. */
#ifndef HAVE_DECL_PTRACE
extern PTRACE_TYPE_RET ptrace();
#endif
I believe this is unnecessary today and should be removed. First, the
comment only mentions OSes we don't support (and to be honest, I had
never even heard of).
But most importantly, in C++, a declaration with empty parenthesis
declares a function that accepts no arguments, unlike in C. So if this
declaration was really used, GDB wouldn't build, since all ptrace call
sites pass some arguments. Since we haven't heard anything about this
causing some build failures since we have transitioned to C++, I
conclude that it's not used.
This patch removes it as well as the corresponding configure check.

While working on the preceding selftests patches, I noticed that some
selftests-specific files are included in the build even when selftests
are disabled, namely disasm-selftest.c and gdbarch-selftests.c. These
files are entirely #if'ed out when building with selftests disabled.
This is not a huge problem, but I think it would make more sense if
these files were simply not built.
With this patch, I propose to put all the selftests-specific source
files into a SELFTESTS_SRCS Makefile variable (even selftest-arch.c,
which is currently added by the configure script).
gdb/ChangeLog:
* Makefile.in (SUBDIR_UNITTESTS_SRCS): Rename to...
(SELFTESTS_SRCS): ... this. Add disasm-selftests.c,
gdbarch-selfselftests.c and selftest-arch.c.
(SUBDIR_UNITTESTS_OBS): Rename to...
(SELFTESTS_OBS): ... this.
(COMMON_SFILES): Remove disasm-selftests.c and
gdbarch-selftests.c.
* configure.ac: Don't add selftest-arch.{c,o} to
CONFIG_{SRCS,OBS}.
* disasm-selftests.c, gdbarch-selftests.c: Remove GDB_SELF_TEST
preprocessor conditions.
The same is done for gdb, gdbserver and gdbsupport. I therefore think
it makes sense to move that to GDB_AC_COMMON.
It is required to move the call to GDB_AC_COMMON so it is before
GDB_AC_SELFTEST in gdbserver/configure.ac, otherwise the $development
variable isn't set when the code behind GDB_AC_SELFTEST executes.
gdb/ChangeLog:
* configure.ac: Don't source bfd/development.sh.
* selftest.m4: Modify comment.
* configure: Re-generate.
gdbserver/ChangeLog:
* configure.ac: Don't source bfd/development.sh, move
GDB_AC_COMMON higher.
* configure: Re-generate.
gdbsupport/ChangeLog:
* configure.ac: Don't source bfd/development.sh.
* common.m4: Source bfd/development.sh.
* configure: Re-generate.
Before commit 3d1e5a43cbe ("gdbsupport/configure.ac: source
development.sh"), the GDB build in non-development mode (turn
development to false in bfd/development.sh if you want to try) was
broken because the gdbsupport configure script didn't source
bfd/development.sh to set the development variable.
Since the GDB_AC_SELFTEST macro relies on the `development` variable, I
propose to modify it such that it errors out if $development does not
have an expected value of "true" or "false". This could prevent a
future similar problem from happening while refactoring the configure
scripts. It would have caught the problem fixed by the patch mentioned
earlier.
gdb/ChangeLog:
* selftest.m4 (GDB_AC_SELFTEST): Error out if $development is
not "true" or "false".
* configure: Re-generate.

While compiling with clang, I noticed it didn't catch cases where my
function declaration didn't match my function definition. This is
normally caught by gcc with -Wmissing-declarations.
On clang, this is caught by -Wmissing-prototypes instead.
Note that on gcc, -Wmissing-prototypes also exists, but is only valid
for C and Objective-C. It gets correctly rejected by the configure
script since gcc rejects it with:
cc1plus: error: command line option '-Wmissing-prototypes' is valid for C/ObjC but not for C++ -Werror
So this warning flag ends up not used for gcc (which is what we want).

debuginfod is a lightweight web service that indexes ELF/DWARF debugging
resources by build-id and serves them over HTTP.
This patch enables GDB to query debuginfod servers for separate debug
files and source code when it is otherwise not able to find them.
GDB can be built with debuginfod using the --with-debuginfod configure
option.
This requires that libdebuginfod be installed and found at configure time.
debuginfod is packaged with elfutils, starting with version 0.178.
For more information see https://sourceware.org/elfutils/.
Tested on x86_64 Fedora 31.

The motivation behind this commit is to make it easier to bundle the
Python *.py library files with GDB when statically linking GDB against
libpython. The Python files will be manually added into the GDB
installation tree, and GDB should be able to find them at run-time.
The installation tree will look like this:
.
|-- bin/
|-- include/
|-- lib/
| `-- python3.8/
`-- share/
The benefit here is that the entire installation tree can be bundled
into a single archive and copied to another machine with a different
version of Python installed, and GDB will still work, including its
Python support.
In use the new configure options would be used something like this,
first build and install a static Python library:
mkdir python
cd python
# Clone or download Python into a src/ directory.
mkdir build
export PYTHON_INSTALL_PATH=$PWD/install
cd build
../src/configure --disable-shared --prefix=$PYTHON_INSTALL_PATH
make
make install
Now build and install GDB:
mkdir binutils-gdb
cd binutils-gdb
# Clone or download GDB into a src/ directory.
mkdir build
export GDB_INSTALL_DIR=$PWD/install
cd build
../src/configure \
--prefix=$GDB_INSTALL_DIR \
--with-python=$PYTHON_INSTALL_PATH/bin/python3 \
--with-python-libdir=$GDB_INSTALL_DIR/lib
make all-gdb
make install-gdb
Finally, copy the Python libraries into the GDB install:
cp -r $PYTHON_INSTALL_DIR/lib/python3.8/ $GDB_INSTALL_DIR/lib
After this the Python src, build, and install directories are no
longer needed and can be deleted.
If the new --with-python-libdir option is not used then the existing
behaviour is left unchanged, GDB will look for the Python libraries in
the lib/ directory within the python path. The concatenation of the
python prefix and the string 'lib/' is now done at configure time,
rather than at run time in GDB as it was previous, however, this was
never something that the user had dynamic control over, so there's no
loss of functionality.
gdb/ChangeLog:
* config.in: Regenerate.
* configure: Regenerate.
* configure.ac: Add --with-python-libdir option.
* main.c: Use WITH_PYTHON_LIBDIR.
GCC's config/ChangeLog since the last time this merge was done
(in the binutils-gdb commit 0b4d000cc4e8e77c823) is included at the
end of this commit message.
It is worth noting that the binutils-gdb commit 301a9420d947da1458
added the file config/debuginfod.m4 which is not present in GCC's
config/ directory. This file is preserved, unmodified, after this
commit.
In order to regenerate all of the configure files, I configured with
--enable-maintainer-mode, and built the 'all' target. I then did the
same thing on a source tree without this patch, and only committed
those files that changed when this patch was added.

This patch moves gdbserver to the top level.
This patch is as close to a pure move as possible -- gdbserver still
builds its own variant of gnulib and gdbsupport. Changing this will
be done in a separate patch.
[v2] Note that, per Simon's review comment, this patch changes the
tree so that gdbserver is not built for or1k or score. This makes
sense, because there is apparently not actually a gdbserver port here.
[v3] This version of the patch also splits out some configury into a
new file, gdbserver/configure.host, so that the top-level configure
script can simply rely on it in order to decide whether gdbserver
should be built.
[v4] This version adds documentation and removes some unnecessary
top-level dependencies.
[v5] Update docs to mention "make all-gdbserver" and change how
top-level configure decides whether to build gdbserver, switching to a
single, shared script.
Tested by the buildbot.

This moves many needed configure checks from gdb and gdbserver into
common.m4. This helps gdbsupport, nat, and target be self-contained.
The result is a bit spaghetti-ish, because gdbsupport uses another m4
file from gdb/. The resulting code is somewhat non-obvious. However,
these problems already exist, so it's not really that much worse than
what is already done.

This patch moves the gdbsupport directory to the top level. This is
the next step in the ongoing project to move gdbserver to the top
level.
The bulk of this patch was created by "git mv gdb/gdbsupport gdbsupport".
This patch then adds a build system to gdbsupport and wires it into
the top level. Then it changes gdb to use the top-level build.
gdbserver, on the other hand, is not yet changed. It still does its
own build of gdbsupport.

This adds configury support and an RAII class that can be used to
temporarily block signals that are used by gdb. (This class is not
used in this patch, but it split out for easier review.)
The idea of this patch is that these signals should only be delivered
to the main thread. So, when creating a background thread, they are
temporarily blocked; the blocked state is inherited by the new thread.
The sigprocmask man page says:
The use of sigprocmask() is unspecified in a multithreaded
process; see pthread_sigmask(3).
This patch changes gdb to use pthread_sigmask when appropriate, by
introducing a convenience define.
I've updated gdbserver as well, because I had to touch gdbsupport, and
because the threading patches will make it link against the thread
library.
I chose not to touch the NTO code, because I don't know anything about
that platform and because I cannot test it.
Finally, this modifies an existing spot in the Guile layer to use the
new facility.

This adds a configure check for std::thread. This is needed because
std::thread is not available on some systems, like some versions of
mingw and DJGPP.
This also adds configury to make sure that a threaded gdb links
against the correct threading library (-lpthread or the like), and
passes the right flags (e.g., -pthread) to the compilations.
Note that this also links gdbserver against the thread library. This
is not strictly necessary at this point in the series, but a later
patch will change gdbsupport to use pthread_sigmask, at which point
this will be needed.

There is no need to keep mingw-strerror around; we can just always use
the code from posix-strerror. The main reason we had that code, it
seems, is to handle winsock error codes, but gnulib's version
handles those.
Unfortunately the code can't be moved into common-utils.c because
libinproctrace.so uses common-utils but not gnulib.

Makes sure to assign the return value of strerror_r to an int,
so that we get a compile error if we accidentally get the
wrong version.

* gdbsupport/posix-strerror.c (safe_strerror): Always call the
POSIX version of strerror_r, now that gnulib provides it if
necessary.
