Tom de Vries 545e49f5ee [gdb/tdep] Fix inferior plt calls in PIE for i386
Consider test-case test.c:
...
int main (void) {
  void *p = malloc (10);
  return 0;
}
...

When compiled to a non-PIE exec:
...
$ gcc -m32 test.c
...
the call sequence looks like:
...
 8048447:       83 ec 0c                sub    $0xc,%esp
 804844a:       6a 0a                   push   $0xa
 804844c:       e8 bf fe ff ff          call   8048310 <malloc@plt>
...
which calls to:
...
08048310 <malloc@plt>:
 8048310:       ff 25 0c a0 04 08       jmp    *0x804a00c
 8048316:       68 00 00 00 00          push   $0x0
 804831b:       e9 e0 ff ff ff          jmp    8048300 <.plt>
...
where the first insn at 0x8048310 initially jumps to the following address
0x8048316, read from the .got.plt @ 0x804a00c:
...
 804a000 0c9f0408 00000000 00000000 16830408  ................
 804a010 26830408                             &...
...

Likewise, when compiled as a PIE:
...
$ gcc -m32 -fPIE -pie test.c
...
we have this call sequence (with %ebx setup to point to the .got.plt):
...
0000055d <main>:
 579:   83 ec 0c                sub    $0xc,%esp
 57c:   6a 0a                   push   $0xa
 57e:   89 c3                   mov    %eax,%ebx
 580:   e8 6b fe ff ff          call   3f0 <malloc@plt>
...
which calls to:
...
000003f0 <malloc@plt>:
 3f0:   ff a3 0c 00 00 00       jmp    *0xc(%ebx)
 3f6:   68 00 00 00 00          push   $0x0
 3fb:   e9 e0 ff ff ff          jmp    3e0 <.plt>
...
where the insn at 0x3f0 initially jumps to following address 0x3f6, read from
the .got.plt at offset 0xc:
...
 2000 f41e0000 00000000 00000000 f6030000  ................
 2010 06040000                             ....
...

When instead doing an inferior call to malloc (with nosharedlib to force
malloc to resolve to malloc@plt rather than the functions in ld.so or libc.so)
with the non-PIE exec, we have the expected:
...
$ gdb -q -batch a.out -ex start -ex nosharedlib -ex "p /x (void *)malloc (10)"
Temporary breakpoint 1 at 0x8048444

Temporary breakpoint 1, 0x08048444 in main ()
$1 = 0x804b160
...

But with the PIE exec, we run into:
...
$ gdb -q -batch a.out -ex start -ex nosharedlib -ex "p /x (void *)malloc (10)"
Temporary breakpoint 1 at 0x56c

Temporary breakpoint 1, 0x5655556c in main ()

Program received signal SIGSEGV, Segmentation fault.
0x565553f0 in malloc@plt ()
...

The segfault happens because:
- the inferior call mechanism doesn't setup %ebx
- %ebx instead is 0
- the jump to "*0xc(%ebx)" reads from memory at 0xc

Fix this by setting up %ebx properly in i386_thiscall_push_dummy_call.

Fixes this failure with target board unix/-m32/-pie/-fPIE reported in
PR28467:
...
FAIL: gdb.base/nodebug.exp: p/c (int) array_index("abcdef",2)
...

Tested on x86_64-linux, with target board unix/-m32 and unix/-m32/-fPIE/-pie.

		   README for GNU development tools

This directory contains various GNU compilers, assemblers, linkers, 
debuggers, etc., plus their support routines, definitions, and documentation.

If you are receiving this as part of a GDB release, see the file gdb/README.
If with a binutils release, see binutils/README;  if with a libg++ release,
see libg++/README, etc.  That'll give you info about this
package -- supported targets, how to use it, how to report bugs, etc.

It is now possible to automatically configure and build a variety of
tools with one command.  To build all of the tools contained herein,
run the ``configure'' script here, e.g.:

	./configure 
	make

To install them (by default in /usr/local/bin, /usr/local/lib, etc),
then do:
	make install

(If the configure script can't determine your type of computer, give it
the name as an argument, for instance ``./configure sun4''.  You can
use the script ``config.sub'' to test whether a name is recognized; if
it is, config.sub translates it to a triplet specifying CPU, vendor,
and OS.)

If you have more than one compiler on your system, it is often best to
explicitly set CC in the environment before running configure, and to
also set CC when running make.  For example (assuming sh/bash/ksh):

	CC=gcc ./configure
	make

A similar example using csh:

	setenv CC gcc
	./configure
	make

COPYING.LIB in the various directories, for a description of the

REPORTING BUGS: Again, see gdb/README, binutils/README, etc., for info
on where and how to report problems.
