framefilter quit: Code cleanup: Avoid gotos
goto error patters are sometimes AFAIK used in C for the cases like:

retval=0;
error_c: free(c);
error_b: free(b);

Fix redefinition errors in C++ mode
In C, we can forward declare static structure instances. That doesn't
work in C++ though. C++ treats these as definitions. So then the
compiler complains about symbol redefinition, like:
src/gdb/elfread.c:1569:29: error: redefinition of ‘const sym_fns elf_sym_fns_lazy_psyms’
src/gdb/elfread.c:53:29: error: ‘const sym_fns elf_sym_fns_lazy_psyms’ previously declared here
The intent of static here is naturally to avoid making these objects
visible outside the compilation unit. The equivalent in C++ would be
to instead define the objects in the anonymous namespace. But given
that it's desirable to leave the codebase compiling as both C and C++
for a while, this just makes the objects extern.
(base_breakpoint_ops is already declared in breakpoint.h, so we can
just remove the forward declare from breakpoint.c)

Fix adjust_pc_after_break, remove still current thread check
On decr_pc_after_break targets, GDB adjusts the PC incorrectly if a
background single-step stops somewhere where PC-$decr_pc has a
breakpoint, and the thread that finishes the step is not the current
thread, like:
ADDR1 nop <-- breakpoint here
ADDR2 jmp PC
IOW, say thread A is stepping ADDR2's line in the background (an
infinite loop), and the user switches focus to thread B. GDB's
adjust_pc_after_break logic confuses the single-step stop of thread A
for a hit of the breakpoint at ADDR1, and thus adjusts thread A's PC
to point at ADDR1 when it should not, and reports a breakpoint hit,
when thread A did not execute the instruction at ADDR1 at all.
The test added by this patch exercises exactly that.
I can't find any reason we'd need the "thread to be examined is still
the current thread" condition in adjust_pc_after_break, at least
nowadays; it might have made sense in the past. Best just remove it,
and rely on currently_stepping().

Fix a pair of screen-resizing issues in TUI
This patch fixes a pair of TUI issues related to screen resizing:
1. In tui_handle_resize_during_io(), when the TUI screen gets resized,
we fail to update GDB's idea about the height of the output window.
You can see this bug by doing:
a. Enter TUI mode.
b. "show height"
c. Resize the terminal.
d. "show height"
And observe that despite resizing the terminal, the reported height
remains unchanged. Note that a similar issue exists in the CLI.
The fix for this is simple: call tui_update_gdb_sizes() after performing
a resize, so that the "height" variable remains consistent with the
height of TUI's output window.
2. In tui_enable(), the call to tui_update_gdb_sizes() may clobber
readline's idea of the actual screen dimensions, and a subsequent
pending resize will use bogus terminal dimensions.
You can see this bug by doing:
a. Enter TUI mode.
b. Exit TUI mode.
c. Resize the terminal.
d. Enter TUI mode.
e. Press a key to resize the screen.
And observe that the terminal gets incorrectly resized to the wrong
dimensions. To fix this issue, we should oppurtunistically resize the
screen in tui_enable(). That way we eliminate the possibility of a
pending resize triggering right after we call tui_update_gdb_sizes().
gdb/ChangeLog:
* tui/tui-io.c (tui_handle_resize_during_io): Call
tui_update_gdb_sizes() after resizing the screen.
* tui/tui.c (tui_enable): Resize the terminal before
calling tui_update_gdb_sizes().

Fix truncation of TUI command history
If we submit a command while the prompt cursor is somewhere other than
at the end of the command line, the command line gets truncated as the
command window gets shifted one line up. This happens because we fail
to properly move the cursor to the end of the command line before
transmitting the newline to ncurses. We need to move the cursor because
when ncurses outputs a newline it truncates any text that appears
past the end of the cursor.
The fix is generic enough to work properly even in multi-line secondary
prompts like the quit prompt.

Thinking that this might be a problem of SIGTERM reaching GDB, but
then the event loop taking too long to handle it, I hacked GDB to
print a debug log whenever the SIGTERM handler was called, and,
whenever the event loop finally calls the async SIGTERM handler.
Here's what I see:
infrun: 30011 [Thread 30011],
infrun: status->kind = stopped, signal = GDB_SIGNAL_TRAP
infrun: TARGET_WAITKIND_STOPPED
infrun: stop_pc = 0x4005de
--> infrun: got SIGTERM <--
infrun: stepping inside range [0x4005de-0x4005e0]
infrun: resume (step=1, signal=GDB_SIGNAL_0), ...
infrun: prepare_to_wait
--> infrun: handling async SIGTERM <--
Cannot execute this command while the target is running.
Use the "interrupt" command to stop the target
and then try again.
gdb.base/gdb-sigterm.exp: expect eof #27
FAIL: gdb.base/gdb-sigterm.exp: SIGTERM stepped 228 times
So, no delay on the GDB side. It just happens that occasionally it
takes more than 200 single-steps before SIGTERM even reaches GDB.
This just looks like a kernel/scheduling issue --- some extra usage
spike in the system (e.g., an I/O spike) might cause it for me. For
the build slaves, I'm guessing they're frequently busy enough to trip
on this often. Particularly more so now that we're having them run
tests in parallel mode.
The fix is to detect failure by timeout instead of counting single
steps. This should be more reliable. Indeed for me, after this
commit, I couldn't trigger a FAIL anymore, even after letting the test
run for an hour.
By timeout is also nicer in that a board file for a slow host/target
can increase it (like, e.g., an embedded GNU/Linux board).

Add plugin_input_file_t
This patchs adds plugin_input_file_t to implement get_input_file, get_view
and release_input_file. The maximum memeory overhead per IR input file
are about 40 bytes for plugin_input_file_t plus the memory to store input
IR filename. According to
http://gcc.gnu.org/wiki/whopr/driver
RELEASE_INPUT_FILE: Function pointer to the linker interface that
releases a file descriptor for a claimed input file. The plug-in library
must call this interface for each file descriptor obtained by the "get
input file" interface. It must release all such file descriptors before
returning from the WPA phase.
However, GCC plug-in library doesn't use the "get input file" interface.
It processed the IR input in the claim file handler. Since the the file
descriptor opened for the IR input was unused after the claim file
handler returns and GCC plug-in library before GCC 5 doesn't call the
RELEASE_INPUT_FILE function pointer, ld closed the file descriptor to
avoid leaking file descriptor. But this approach doesn't work with
other plug-in libraries which uses the "get input file", "get view" and
"release input file" interfaces. To avoid file descriptor leak with
GCC prior to GCC 5 and support other plug-in libraries at the same time,
we close the file descriptor only if the input IR file is a bfd_object
file. This scheme doesn't work when a plug-in library needs the file
descriptor and its IR is stored in bfd_object file.

Fix msp430 build with gcc-5
gcc-5 correctly complains "loop exit may only be reached after
undefined behavior". I was going to correct this by checking the
index before dereferencing the array rather than the other way around,
but then I noticed it is possible for extract_cmd to write the
terminating zero one past the end of "cmd". Fixing that means no
index check is needed in md_assemble.
* config/tc-msp430.c (md_assemble): Correct size passed to
extract_cmd. Remove index check.

Clean up System V IPC objects allocated by test.
This commit modifies the test program gdb.base/info-os.c so that
it cleans up all allocated System V IPC objects when a fatal
error occurs. Without this, it was possible for the program
to leave IPC objects on the system, and such objects persist
until they are manually deleted or the system reboots.
I looked at changing the SysV IPC key for allocating the IPC objects to
IPC_PRIVATE. That would prevent errors due to namespace conflicts with the
key. However, the test needs to read the actual key number from the 'info
os' command output, and IPC_PRIVATE won't work for that.

Fix Python 3 build error on 32-bit hosts
on Fedora Rawhide (==22) i686 using --with-python=/usr/bin/python3 one gets:

This is because in Python 2 tp_hash was:
typedef long (*hashfunc)(PyObject *);
while in Python 3 tp_hash is:
typedef Py_hash_t (*hashfunc)(PyObject *);
Py_hash_t is int for 32-bit hosts and long for 64-bit hosts. While on 32-bit
hosts sizeof(long)==sizeof(int) still the hashfunc type is formally
incompatible. As this patch should have no compiled code change it is not
really necessary for gdb-7.9, it would fix there just this non-fatal

Linux: don't resume new LWPs until we've pulled all events out of the kernel
Since the starvation avoidance series
(https://sourceware.org/ml/gdb-patches/2014-12/msg00631.html), both
GDB and GDBserver pull all events out of ptrace before deciding which
event to process.
There's one problem with that though. Because we resume new threads
immediately when we see a PTRACE_EVENT_CLONE event, if the program
constantly spawns threads fast enough, new threads can spawn threads
faster we can pull events out of the kernel, and thus we'd get stuck
in an infinite loop, never returning any event to the core to process.
I occasionally see this happen with the
attach-many-short-lived-threads.exp test against gdbserver.
The fix is to delay resuming new threads until we've pulled out all
events out of the kernel.
On native, we already have the resume_stopped_resumed_lwps function
that knows to resume LWPs that are stopped with no event to report to
the core. So the patch just adds another use. GDBserver didn't have
the equivalent yet, so the patch adds one.
Tested on x86_64 Fedora 20, native and gdbserver (remote and
extended-remote).
Running the testsuite with the native-extended-gdbserver.exp board and
passing a variant spec, like
make check RUNTESTFLAGS="--target_board=native-extended-gdbserver/-m32"
results in dejagnu trying to open a rsh connection to
"native-extended-gdbserver", which of course is wrong. The point of
this board is running things locally.
The issue is that the native-extended-gdbserver board does not clear
the "isremote" flag properly.
Reported by Sergio at:

* boards/native-extended-gdbserver.exp: Remove any target variant
specifications from the board name before clearing the isremote

Warn if core file register section is larger than expected
When reading a core file register section which is larger than

exactly the size specified by the regset section iterator. In some

x86: Use correct .reg-xstate section size
When reading the XSAVE extended state from an i386 or AMD64 core file,
the respective regset iterator requests a minimum section size of
zero. Since the respective regset supply function does not check the
size either, this may lead to accessing data out of range if the
section is too short.
In write mode, the iterator always uses the maximum supported size for
the XSAVE extended state.
This is now changed such that the iterator always requests the
expected size of this section based on xcr0, both for reading and
writing.
gdb/ChangeLog:
* amd64-linux-tdep.c (amd64_linux_iterate_over_regset_sections):
