Fix "Remote 'g' packet reply is too long" problems with multiple inferiors
When debugging two inferiors (or more) against gdbserver, and the
inferiors have different architectures, such as e.g., on x86_64
GNU/Linux and one inferior is 64-bit while the other is 32-bit, then
GDB can get confused with the different architectures in a couple
spots.
In both cases I ran into, GDB incorrectly ended up using the
architecture of whatever happens to be the selected inferior instead
of the architecture of some other given inferior:
#1 - When parsing the expedited registers in stop replies.
#2 - In the default implementation of the target_thread_architecture
target method.
These resulted in instances of the infamous "Remote 'g' packet reply
is too long" error. For example, with the test added in this commit,
we get:
~~~
Continuing.
Remote 'g' packet reply is too long (expected 440 bytes, got 816 bytes): ad064000000000000[snip]

This is because target_gdbarch is really just
current_inferior()->gdbarch, and it's wrong to return that
architecture when the inferior of the passed in PTID is NOT the
current inferior -- the inferior for PTID may be running a different
architecture. E.g., a mix of 64-bit and 32-bit inferiors in the same
debug session.

I.e., the test does "maint print registers" while the inferior is not
running yet. This is expected to work, and there's already a hack in
get_thread_arch_regcache to make it work.
Instead of pilling on hacks in the internal of regcache and
target_ops, this commit moves the null_ptid special casing to where it
belongs -- higher up in the call chain in the implementation of "maint
print registers" & co directly.

target_has_registers. */
aspace = (ptid_equal (null_ptid, ptid)
? NULL
: target_thread_address_space (ptid));
i.e., it'll no longer be possible to try to build a regcache for
null_ptid. That change alone would regress the gdbarch self tests
though, causing this:

A problem internal to GDB has been detected,
further debugging may prove unreliable.
Quit this debugging session? (y or n) FAIL: gdb.gdb/unittest.exp: maintenance selftest (GDB internal error)
The problem is that the way the mocking environment for those unit
tests is written is a bit fragile: it creates a special purpose
regcache (and sentinel's frame), using whatever is the current
inferior_ptid (usually null_ptid), and assumes get_current_regcache
will find that in the regcache::current_regcache list.
This commit changes the way the mock environment is created. It
eliminates the special regcache and frame and instead creates a fuller
mock environment, with a custom mock target_ops, and then a mock
inferior and thread "running" on that target.
If there's already a running target when you type "maint selftest",
then we error out, instead of pushing a new target on top of the
existing one (and thus killing the debug session). This results in:
(gdb) maint selftest

Ran 19 unit tests, 1 failed
I think that's OK, because self tests are really meant to be run from
a clean state right after GDB is started. I'm adding that erroring
out just as safe measure just in case someone types "maint selftest"
on the command line while already debugging something (as I've done
it).
(In my multi-target branch, where this patch originated from, we don't
actually need to error out, because there each inferior has its own
target stack).
Also, note that the current code was doing:
current_inferior()->gdbarch = gdbarch;
without taking care to restore the previous gdbarch. This means that
GDB's state was being left inconsistent after running the self tests,
further supporting the point that there's probably not much
expectation that mixing "maint selftests" and regular debugging in the
same GDB invocation really works. This patch fixes that, regardless.

This is the "natural" extension necessary for the "set cwd" command
(and the whole "set the inferior's cwd" logic) to work on gdbserver.
The idea here is to have a new remote packet, QSetWorkingDir (name
adopted from LLDB's extension to the RSP, as can be seen at
<https://raw.githubusercontent.com/llvm-mirror/lldb/master/docs/lldb-gdb-remote.txt>),
which sends an hex-encoded string representing the working directory
that the remote inferior will use. There is a slight difference from
the packet proposed by LLDB: GDB's version will accept empty
arguments, meaning that the user wants to clear the previously set
working directory for the inferior (i.e., "set cwd" without arguments
on GDB).
For UNIX-like targets this feature is already implemented on
nat/fork-inferior.c, and all gdbserver has to do is to basically
implement "set_inferior_cwd" and call it whenever such packet arrives.
For other targets, like Windows, it is possible to use the existing
"get_inferior_cwd" function and do the necessary steps to make sure
that the inferior will use the specified working directory.
Aside from that, the patch consists basically of updates to the
testcase (making it available on remote targets) and the
documentation.

'set-cwd-on-gdbserver' feature.

This commit adds new "set/show cwd" commands, which are used to
set/show the current working directory of the inferior that will be
started.
The idea here is that "set cwd" will become the de facto way of
setting the inferior's cwd. Currently, the user can use "cd" for
that, but there are side effects: with "cd", GDB also switches to
another directory, and that can impact the loading of scripts and
other files. With "set cwd", we separate the logic into a new
command.
To maintain backward compatibility, if the user issues a "cd" command
but doesn't use "set cwd", then the inferior's cwd will still be
changed according to what the user specified. However, "set cwd" has
precedence over "cd", so it can always be used to override it.
"set cwd" works in the following way:
- If the user sets the inferior's cwd by using "set cwd", then this
directory is saved into current_inferior ()->cwd and is used when
the inferior is started (see below).
- If the user doesn't set the inferior's cwd by using "set cwd", but
rather use the "cd" command as before, then this directory is
inherited by the inferior because GDB will have chdir'd into it.
On Unix-like hosts, the way the directory is changed before the
inferior execution is by expanding the user set directory before the
fork, and then "chdir" after the call to fork/vfork on
"fork_inferior", but before the actual execution. On Windows, the
inferior cwd set by the user is passed directly to the CreateProcess
call, which takes care of the actual chdir for us.
This way, we'll make sure that GDB's cwd is not affected by the user
set cwd.
* gdb.texinfo (Starting your Program) <The working directory.>:
Mention new "set cwd" command.
(Working Directory) <Your Program's Working Directory>:
Rephrase to explain that "set cwd" exists and is the default
way to change the inferior's cwd.
Currently, whenever we want to handle paths provided by the user and
perform tilde expansion on GDB, we rely on "tilde_expand", which comes
from readline. This was enough for our use cases so far, but the
situation will change when we start dealing with paths on gdbserver as
well, which is what the next patches implement.
Unfortunately it is not possible to use "tilde_expand" in this case
because gdbserver doesn't use readline. For that reason I decided to
implement a new "gdb_tilde_expand" function, which is basically a
wrapper for "glob" and its GNU extension, GLOB_TILDE_CHECK. With the
import of the "glob" module from gnulib, we're sure that "glob" always
supports this extension.

Fix gdbserver regression exposed by gdb.threads/multi-create-ns-info-thr.exp
Commit 8629910955a7 ("Add thread_db_notice_clone to gdbserver")
introduced calls into libthread_db without making sure that the
current thread is pointing to a know-stopped thread. This resulted in
sometimes thread_db_notice_clone failing->find_one_thread failing like
this, as seen when running gdb.threads/multi-create-ns-info-thr.exp:
Things go south from here and sometimes that ends up resulting in
gdbserver crashing and the test failing.
gdb/gdbserver/ChangeLog:
2017-09-29 Pedro Alves <palves@redhat.com>
* linux-low.c (handle_extended_wait): Pass parent thread instead
of process to thread_db_notice_clone.
* linux-low.h (thread_db_notice_clone): Replace parent process
parameter with parent thread parameter.
* thread-db.c (find_one_thread): Add comment.
(thread_db_notice_clone): Replace parent process parameter with
parent thread parameter. Temporarily switch to the parent thread.

Fail when string merge can't alloc memory
I was looking at Debian bug #874674 again today, and think I might
have spotted the problem. It appears that merge.c tries to cope with
memory allocation failures in some circumstances, but doesn't quite
manage to get everything right. This patch will make ld report memory
allocation failures instead of silently not merging strings.
* merge.c (merge_strings): Return FALSE on malloc failure.
(_bfd_merge_sections): Return failures from record_section and
merge_strings.

Skip the PR 14918 linker test for ARM targets.
I am applying a patch that has been lying around in the Fedora
binutils sources for a while. It skips the PR14918 linker test for
ARM based targets. This test checks that libgcc is not included in a
link of an empty executable. This works for most targets, but on the
ARM the crt1.o startup code calls __libc_csu_init which is in
/usr/lib/libc_nonshared.a(elf-init.oS). This in turn needs
__aeabi_unwind_cpp_pr0@@GCC_3.5 which is provided by libgcc_s.so.1,
and so the test fails.

Many tdep files need to perform conversions between two floating-point
types, usually when accessing FP registers. Most targets now use the
convert_typed_floating helper routine to do so. However, a small number
still use the old method of converting via a DOUBLEST. Since we want
to get rid of DOUBLEST, these targets need to be moved to the new
method as well.
The main obstacle is that for convert_typed_floating we need an actual
*type*, not just a floatformat.
In arm-tdep.c, this is very straightforward, since there is already a
type using the ARM extended floatformat.
For sh-tdep.c and sh64-tdep.c, no such type already exists, so I've
added one to the gdbarch_tdep struct as done on other targets.
For historical reasons, the TYPE_FLOATFORMAT element is still set to hold
an array of two floatformat structs, one for big-endian and the other for
little-endian. When accessing the element via floatformat_from_type,
the code would check the type's byte order and return the appropriate
floatformat.
However, these days this is quite unnecessary, since the type's byte order
is already known at the time the type is allocated and the floatformat is
installed into TYPE_FLOATFORMAT. Therefore, we can just install the correct
version here.
Also, moves the (now trivially simple) floatformat_from_type accessor to
gdbtypes.{c,h}, since it doesn't really need to be in doublest.c now.
* doublest.h (floatformat_from_type): Move to gdbtypes.h.
* doublest.c (floatformat_from_type): Move to gdbtypes.c.
* gdbtypes.h (union type_specific): Make field floatformat hold
just a single struct floatformat, not an array.
(floatformat_from_type): Move here.
* gdbtypes.c (floatformat_from_type): Move here. Update to
changed TYPE_FLOATFORMAT definition.
(verify_floatformat): Update to changed TYPE_FLOATFORMAT.
(recursive_dump_type): Likewise.
(init_float_type): Install correct floatformat for byte order.
(arch_float_type): Likewise.
This changes the interfaces to init_type and arch_type to take the
type length in bits as input (instead of as bytes). The routines
assert that the length is a multiple of TARGET_CHAR_BIT.
For consistency, arch_flags_type is changed likewise, so that now
all type creation interfaces always use length in bits.
All callers are updated in the straightforward manner.
The assert actually found a bug in read_range_type, where the
init_integer_type routine was called with a wrong argument (probably
a bug introduced with the conversion to use init_integer_type).
