gdb/testsuite: resolve duplicate test names in gdb.guile/*.exp
This commit resolves almost all of the remaining duplicate test names
in gdb.guile/*.exp. This is done by either:
- Making use of with_test_prefix,
- Giving tests a unique name,
- Extending the existing name to make it unique,
- Not printing PASS lines for simple setup commands (e.g. loading
support modules, or adjusting GDB internal settings not relating to
guile).

gdb/testsuite: remove some duplicate test names from guile tests
The guile support library has some "tests" that are actually being
used to setup GDB ready for the real guile tests, e.g. we load some
support modules, and define some helper functions.
As this setup is done every time we call gdb_guile_runto_main, which
could be called multiple times in a single test script, this can lead
to duplicate PASS lines.
As this setup is all pretty basic, and isn't the actual focus of the
real tests, then in this commit I pass an empty test name through to
the gdb_test_no_output calls, the result of this is that the PASS
lines are no longer printed. This removes some duplicate tests from
the gdb.guile/*.exp set of tests.

gdb: make gdbpy_parse_command_name return a unique_xmalloc_ptr

gdb: generate the prefix name for prefix commands on demand
Previously, the prefixname field of struct cmd_list_element was manually
set for prefix commands. This seems verbose and error prone as it
required every single call to functions adding prefix commands to
specify the prefix name while the same information can be easily
generated.
Historically, this was not possible as the prefix field was null for
many commands, but this was fixed in commit 3f4d92ebdf7f848b5ccc9e8d8e8514c64fde1183 by Philippe Waroquiers, so
we can rely on the prefix field being set when generating the prefix
name.
This commit also fixes a use after free in this scenario:
* A command gets created via Python (using the gdb.Command class).
The prefix name member is dynamically allocated.
* An alias to the new command is created. The alias's prefixname is set
to point to the prefixname for the original command with a direct
assignment.
* A new command with the same name as the Python command is created.
* The object for the original Python command gets freed and its
prefixname gets freed as well.
* The alias is updated to point to the new command, but its prefixname
is not updated so it keeps pointing to the freed one.

arm: correctly decode Tag_THUMB_ISA_use=3 for thumb2 features
This was detected when a user accidentally tried to build a shared
library using armv8-m.main objects. The resulting error was "warning:
thumb-1 mode PLT generation not currently supported". Something was
clearly wrong because v8-m.main is a thumb-2 variant.
It turns out that the code to detect thumb-2 in object files hadn't
been updated for the extended definition of Tag_THUMB_ISA_use to
support the value 3, meaning 'work it out for yourself from the
architecture tag'; something that is now necessary given that the line
between thumb-1 and thumb-2 has become blurred over time.
Another problem with the function doing this calculation was that the
absence of this tag (implying a default value 0) should mean use of
thumb code was NOT permitted. However, the code went on to look at
the architecture flags and decide that it could ignore this if the
architecture flags said that thumb2 features were available, thus
completely ignoring the intended meaning.

- the test-case doesn't contain "set debug infrun 1", and

because "[infrun] " is printed instead.
Make the test pass with "set debug infrun 1" and add the setting commented

executed for each iteration as shared in this external link:
http://www-pnp.physics.ox.ac.uk/~gronbech/intfor/node18.html.
flang compiler is following this fortran standard, whereas gfortran
compiler is not following, hence the test case is passing with
gfortran and failing with flang. but to correct this gfortran
behavior, bug has been filed in bugzilla
(https://gcc.gnu.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=99816). As reported in
the bug, with gfortran, label 100 of DO loop is reached only after
the completion of the entire DO loop. Hence at label 100, all the
array elements are set and printing of array element a(2) succeeds.
whereas with flang, when we are at label 100 for first time, array
element a(2) is not yet set, only a(1) is set, hence moving the
breakpoint location to outside the DO loop, so that once we are
outside the DO loop, we can print any of the array elements. This
change in test case is done irrespective of any fortran compiler.

support generating multi-html pages in parallel
Use the pattern from other projects where we generate the html pages

Don't run personality syscall at configure time; don't check it at all
Currently, in order to tell whether support for disabling address
space randomization on Linux is available, GDB checks if the
personality syscall works, at configure time. I.e., it does a run
test, instead of a compile/link test:
This is a bit bogus, because the machine the build is done on may not
(and is when you consider distro gdbs) be the machine that eventually
runs gdb. It would be better if this were a compile/link test
instead, and then at runtime, GDB coped with the personality syscall
failing. Actually, GDB already copes.
One environment where this is problematic is building GDB in a Docker
container -- by default, Docker runs the container with seccomp, with
a profile that disables the personality syscall. You can tell Docker
to use a less restricted seccomp profile, but I think we should just
fix it in GDB.
"man 2 personality" says:
This system call first appeared in Linux 1.1.20 (and thus first
in a stable kernel release with Linux 1.2.0); library support
was added in glibc 2.3.
...
ADDR_NO_RANDOMIZE (since Linux 2.6.12)
With this flag set, disable address-space-layout randomization.
glibc 2.3 was released in 2002.
Linux 2.6.12 was released in 2005.
The original patch that added the configure checks was submitted in
2008. The first version of the patch that was submitted to the list
called personality from common code:
Since HAVE_PERSONALITY is only checked in Linux code, and
ADDR_NO_RANDOMIZE exists for over 15 years, I propose just completely
removing the configure checks.
If for some odd reason, some remotely modern system still needs a
configure check, then we can revert this commit but drop the
AC_RUN_IFELSE in favor of always doing the AC_LINK_IFELSE
cross-compile fallback.

* linux-nat.c (linux_nat_target::supports_disable_randomization):

gdb/guile: perform tilde expansion when sourcing guile scripts

ERROR: In procedure apply-smob/1:

This is because the path is not tilde expanded. In contrast, when

This commit fixes this oversight, and allows the above source command
to work as expected.
The tilde expansion is done in the generic GDB code before we call the

gdb/testsuite: use gdb_test_no_output instead of send_gdb
I noticed gdb.base/ptype-offsets.exp failing occasionally, this was
due to lines like this in the test script:

gdb: make target_desc_info::filename an std::string
To make the management of memory automatic.
As to why I chose to make this an std::string and not an
std::unique_xmalloc_ptr<char>: some parts of the code consider both a
NULL value and an empty string value to mean "no filename".
target_desc_info_from_user_p, however, doesn't check for a non-NULL but
empty string value. So it seems like having two ways of denoting "no
filename" can lead to these kinds of inconsistencies. Using
std::string, "no filename" is only represented by an empty value.
As a bonus, using an std::string lets us copy target_desc_info objects
using the default assignment operator.

gdb: remove target description macros
In my opinion, the target_desc_fetched, current_target_desc and
target_description_filename macros in target-descriptions.c are not very
useful. I don't think it's useful to hide that they operate on the
current inferior, as everything currently works under the assumption
that the various tdesc commands operate on the current inferior, and I
don't see that changing in the foreseeable future.
This change also avoids having multiple unnecessary calls to
current_inferior and get_tdesc_info per function.

gdb: remove reference to current inferior in target_stack::unpush
target_stack::unpush needs to get the target beneath the target being
unpushed to update the m_top field (which keeps the stratum of the
top-most target). It currently does so using target_ops::beneath, which
uses the target stack of the current inferior. The target stack of the
current inferior is the same as the `this` in the unpush method.
Avoid this detour and remove this reference to the current inferior by
calling target_ops::find_beneath and passing `this` to find the target
beneath `t` in the target stack that is `this`.
gdb/ChangeLog:
* target.c (target_stack::unpush): Call target_ops::find_beneath
to get the target beneath `t`.
Normally, a target is closed when its refcount has dropped to 0, due to
not being used in any inferior anymore. I think it would make sense to
change that assert to not only check in the current inferior, but to
check in all inferiors. It would be quite bad (and a bug) to close a
target while it's still pushed in one of the non-current inferiors.
gdb/ChangeLog:
* target.c (target_close): Check in all inferiors that the

gdb: re-format Python files using black 21.4b0
Re-format all Python files using black [1] version 21.4b0. The goal is
that from now on, we keep all Python files formatted using black. And
that we never have to discuss formatting during review (for these files
at least) ever again.
One change is needed in gdb.python/py-prettyprint.exp, because it
matches the string representation of an exception, which shows source
code. So the change in formatting must be replicated in the expected
regexp.
To document our usage of black I plan on adding this to the "GDB Python
Coding Standards" wiki page [2]:
--8<--
All Python source files under the `gdb/` directory must be formatted
using black version 21.4b0.
This specific version can be installed using:
$ pip3 install 'black == 21.4b0'
All you need to do to re-format files is run `black <file/directory>`,
and black will re-format any Python file it finds in there. It runs
quite fast, so the simplest is to do:
$ black gdb/
from the top-level.
If you notice that black produces changes unrelated to your patch, it's
probably because someone forgot to run it before you. In this case,
don't include unrelated hunks in your patch. Push an obvious patch
fixing the formatting and rebase your work on top of that.
