Alan Hayward fc65c7dbe0 Testsuite: Ensure stack protection is off for GCC
Using -fstack-protector-strong will cause GDB to break on the wrong line
when placing a breakpoint on a function.  This is due to inadequate dwarf
line numbering, and is being tracked by the GCC bug
https://gcc.gnu.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=88432

GCC (and Clang) provided by Debian/Ubuntu default to stack protector
being enabled.

Ensure that when running the GDB testsuite, stack protector is always
turned off for GCC 4.1.0 (when stack protector was added) and above.

Ensure that this does not cause infinite recursion due to
test_compiler_info having to compile a file itself.

Add a test to explicitly test breakpoints with various levels of stack
protection on both GCC and Clang, with xfail for the known errors.

Restore change in ovldbreak.exp which worked around the issue.

gdb/testsuite/ChangeLog:

2019-01-18  Alan Hayward  <alan.hayward@arm.com>

	* gdb.base/stack-protector.c: New test.
	* gdb.base/stack-protector.exp: New file.
	* gdb.cp/ovldbreak.exp: Only allow a single break line.
	* lib/gdb.exp (get_compiler_info): Use getting_compiler_info
	option.
	(gdb_compile): Remove stack protector for GCC and prevent
	recursion.

		   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

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