Use the set_show_commands objects returned by the add_setshow functions
in add_setshow_generic. This lets us avoid looking up the commands
after creating them, instead using the return objects directly.
Make add_setshow_generic return a set_show_commands object, which is a
bit nicer than returning both commands by parameter.
Finally, store using that object in param_smob.
Equivalent of 7bd22f56a3 ("gdb/python: use return values of

Following on from the previous commit, this commit changes the API of
value_struct_elt to take gdb::optional<gdb::array_view<value *>>
instead of a pointer to the gdb::array_view.
This makes the optional nature of the array_view parameter explicit.
This commit is purely a refactoring commit, there should be no user
visible change after this commit.
I have deliberately kept this refactor separate from the previous two
commits as this is a more extensive change, and I'm not 100% sure that
using gdb::optional for the parameter type, instead of a pointer, is
going to be to everyone's taste. If there's push back on this patch
then this one can be dropped from the series.

This commit adds initial support for catchpoints to the guile
breakpoint API.
This commit adds a BP_CATCHPOINT constant which corresponds to
GDB's internal bp_catchpoint. The new constant is documented in the
manual.
The user can't create breakpoints with type BP_CATCHPOINT after this
commit, but breakpoints that already exist, obtained with
the (breakpoints) function, can now have this type.

When creating a breakpoint using the guile API, if an invalid
breakpoint type number was used then the error would report the wrong
argument position, like this:
(gdb) guile (define wp2 (make-breakpoint "result" #:wp-class WP_WRITE #:type 999))
ERROR: In procedure make-breakpoint:
ERROR: In procedure gdbscm_make_breakpoint: Out of range: invalid breakpoint type in position 3: 999
Error while executing Scheme code.
(gdb)
The 'position 3' here is actually pointing at WP_WRITE, when it should
say 'position 5' and point to the 999. This commit fixes this.
However, you also get errors like this:
(gdb) guile (define wp2 (make-breakpoint "result" #:wp-class WP_WRITE #:type BP_NONE))
ERROR: In procedure make-breakpoint:
ERROR: In procedure gdbscm_make_breakpoint: Out of range: invalid breakpoint type in position 3: 0
Error while executing Scheme code.
The BP_NONE is a valid breakpoint type, it's just not valid for
creating breakpoints through the 'make-breakpoint' API. The use of
'0' in the error message (which is the value of BP_NONE) is not
great. This commit changes the error in this case to:
(gdb) guile (define wp2 (make-breakpoint "result" #:wp-class WP_WRITE #:type BP_NONE))
ERROR: In procedure make-breakpoint:
ERROR: In procedure gdbscm_make_breakpoint: unsupported breakpoint type in position 5: "BP_NONE"
Error while executing Scheme code.
Which seems better; we now use the name of the type, and report that
this type is unsupported.

* guile/scm-breakpoint.c (gdbscm_make_breakpoint): Split the error
for invalid breakpoint numbers, and unsupported breakpoint
numbers.

Now that we have range functions that let us use ranged for loops, we
can remove iterate_over_breakpoints in favor of those, which are easier
to read and write. This requires exposing the declaration of
all_breakpoints and all_breakpoints_safe in breakpoint.h, as well as the
supporting types.

when they don't need to delete the breakpoint, and all_breakpoints_safe
otherwise.

The alias creation functions currently accept a name to specify the
target command. They pass this to add_alias_cmd, which needs to lookup
the target command by name.
Given that:
- We don't support creating an alias for a command before that command
exists.
- We always use add_info_alias just after creating that target command,
and therefore have access to the target command's cmd_list_element.
... change add_com_alias to accept the target command as a
cmd_list_element (other functions are done in subsequent patches). This
ensures we don't create the alias before the target command, because you
need to get the cmd_list_element from somewhere when you call the alias
creation function. And it avoids an unecessary command lookup. So it
seems better to me in every aspect.

The 'print max-depth' feature incorrectly causes GDB to skip printing
the string representation of pretty printed variables if the variable
is stored at a nested depth corresponding to the set max-depth value.

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
3f4d92ebdf 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.

Currently, using the guile API, if a user tries to print a breakpoint
object that represents a watchpoint, then GDB will crash. For
example:
(gdb) guile (use-modules (gdb))
(gdb) guile (define wp1 (make-breakpoint "some_variable" #:type BP_WATCHPOINT #:wp-class WP_WRITE))
(gdb) guile (register-breakpoint! wp1)
(gdb) guile (display wp1) (newline)
Aborted (core dumped)
This turns out to be because GDB calls event_location_to_string on the
breakpoints location, and watchpoint breakpoints don't have a
location.
This commit resolves the crash by just skipping the printing of the
location if the breakpoint doesn't have one.
Potentially, we could improve on this by printing details about what
the watchpoint is watching, however, I'm considering this a possible
future enhancement, this commit focuses just on having GDB not crash.

* guile/scm-breakpoint.c (bpscm_print_breakpoint_smob): Only print

Since gdb commit 880ae75a2b "gdb delay guile initialization until

The problem is that both gdb and libguile try to set the libgmp memory functions,
and since the gdb commit the ones from libguile are effective, which results
in gdb freeing some memory in a way that is not compatible with the way that
memory was actually allocated.
The fact that libguile tries to set the libgmp memory functions is a bug which
should be fixed starting version v3.0.6.
Meanwhile, work around this in gdb by not allowing libguile to set the libgomp
memory functions.
Tested on x86_64-linux.

A problem internal to GDB has been detected,
further debugging may prove unreliable.
Quit this debugging session? (y or n)
This is because the Python code (typy_range) blindly reads the high
bound of the type of `items` as a constant value. Since it is a
flexible array member, it has no high bound, the property is undefined.
Since commit 8c2e4e0689 ("gdb: add accessors to struct dynamic_prop"),
the getters check that you are not getting a property value of the wrong
kind, so this causes a failed assertion.
Fix it by checking if the property is indeed a constant value before
accessing it as such. Otherwise, use 0. This restores the previous GDB
behavior: because the structure was zero-initialized, this is what was
returned before. But now this behavior is explicit and not accidental.
Add a test, gdb.python/flexible-array-member.exp, that is derived from
gdb.base/flexible-array-member.exp. It tests the same things, but
through the Python API. It also specifically tests getting the range
from the various kinds of flexible array member types (AFAIK it wasn't
possible to do the equivalent through the CLI).

The 'create_breakpoint' function takes a 'parse_extra' argument that
determines whether the condition, thread, and force-condition
specifiers should be parsed from the extra string or be used from the
function arguments. However, for the case when 'parse_extra' is
false, there is no way to pass the force-condition specifier. This
patch adds it as a new argument.
Also, in the case when parse_extra is false, the current behavior is
as if the condition is being forced. This is a bug. The default
behavior should reject the breakpoint. See below for a demo of this
incorrect behavior. (The MI command '-break-insert' uses the
'create_breakpoint' function with parse_extra=0.)

After applying this patch, we get the behavior below:
(gdb)
-break-insert -c junk -f main
^error,msg="No symbol \"junk\" in current context."
This restores the behavior that is present in the existing releases.

I think this makes the names of the methods clearer, especially for the
arch. The type::arch method (which gets the arch owner, or NULL if the
type is not arch owned) is easily confused with the get_type_arch method
(which returns an arch no matter what). The name "arch_owner" will make
it intuitive that the method returns NULL if the type is not arch-owned.
Also, this frees the type::arch name, so we will be able to morph the
get_type_arch function into the type::arch method.

Update copyright year range in copyright header of all GDB files.
This commit removes some, but not all, uses of LA_PRINT_STRING. In
this commit I've removed those uses where there is an obvious language
object on which I can instead call the printstr method.
In the remaining 3 uses it is harder to know if the correct thing is
to call printstr on the current language, or on a specific language.
Currently obviously, we always call on the current language (as that's
what LA_PRINT_STRING does), and clearly this behaviour is good enough
right now, but is it "right"? I've left them for now and will give
them more thought in the future.
gdb/ChangeLog:
* expprint.c (print_subexp_standard): Replace uses of
LA_PRINT_STRING.
* f-valprint.c (f_language::value_print_inner): Likewise.
* guile/scm-pretty-print.c (ppscm_print_string_repr): Likewise.
* p-valprint.c (pascal_language::value_print_inner): Likewise.
* python/py-prettyprint.c (print_string_repr): Likewise.
The previous patch made it possible to define a condition if it's
valid at some locations. If the condition is invalid at all of the
locations, it's rejected. However, there may be cases where the user
knows the condition *will* be valid at a location in the future,
e.g. due to a shared library load.
To make it possible that such condition can be defined, this patch
adds an optional '-force' flag to the 'condition' command, and,
respectively, a '-force-condition' flag to the 'break'command. When
the force flag is passed, the condition is not rejected even when it
is invalid for all the current locations (note that all the locations
would be internally disabled in this case).
For instance:
(gdb) break test.c:5
Breakpoint 1 at 0x1155: file test.c, line 5.
(gdb) cond 1 foo == 42
No symbol "foo" in current context.
Defining the condition was not possible because 'foo' is not
available. The user can override this behavior with the '-force'
flag:
(gdb) cond -force 1 foo == 42
warning: failed to validate condition at location 1.1, disabling:
No symbol "foo" in current context.
(gdb) info breakpoints
Num Type Disp Enb Address What
1 breakpoint keep y <MULTIPLE>
stop only if foo == 42
1.1 N 0x0000000000001155 in main at test.c:5
Now the condition is accepted, but the location is automatically
disabled. If a future location has a context in which 'foo' is
available, that location would be enabled.
For the 'break' command, -force-condition has the same result:
(gdb) break test.c:5 -force-condition if foo == 42
warning: failed to validate condition at location 0x1169, disabling:
No symbol "foo" in current context.
Breakpoint 1 at 0x1169: file test.c, line 5.

Getting the bounds of an array (or string) type is a common operation,
and is currently done through its index type:
my_array_type->index_type ()->bounds ()
I think it would make sense to let the `type::bounds` methods work for
arrays and strings, as a shorthand for this. It's natural that when
asking for the bounds of an array, we get the bounds of the range type
used as its index type. In a way, it's equivalent as the now-removed
TYPE_ARRAY_{LOWER,UPPER}_BOUND_IS_UNDEFINED and
TYPE_ARRAY_{LOWER,UPPER}_BOUND_VALUE, except it returns the
`range_bounds` object. The caller is then responsible for getting the
property it needs in it.
I updated all the spots I could find that could take advantage of this.
Note that this also makes `type::bit_stride` work on array types, since
`type::bit_stride` uses `type::bounds`. `my_array_type->bit_stride ()`
now returns the bit stride of the array's index type. So some spots
are also changed to take advantage of this.

Currently, a user can define an alias, but cannot have default
arguments for this alias.
This patch modifies the 'alias' command so that default args can
be provided.
(gdb) h alias
Define a new command that is an alias of an existing command.
Usage: alias [-a] [--] ALIAS = COMMAND [DEFAULT-ARGS...]
ALIAS is the name of the alias command to create.
COMMAND is the command being aliased to.
Options:
-a
Specify that ALIAS is an abbreviation of COMMAND.
Abbreviations are not used in command completion..
GDB will automatically prepend the provided DEFAULT-ARGS to the list
of arguments explicitly provided when using ALIAS.
Use "help aliases" to list all user defined aliases and their default args.
Examples:
Make "spe" an alias of "set print elements":
alias spe set print elements
Make "elms" an alias of "elements" in the "set print" command:
alias -a set print elms set print elements
Make "btf" an alias of "backtrace -full -past-entry -past-main" :
alias btf = backtrace -full -past-entry -past-main
Make "wLapPeu" an alias of 2 nested "with":
alias wLapPeu = with language pascal -- with print elements unlimited --
(gdb)
The way 'default-args' is implemented makes it trivial to set default
args also for GDB commands (such as "backtrace") and for GDB pre-defined
aliases (such as "bt"). It was however deemed better to not allow to
define default arguments for pre-defined commands and aliases, to avoid
users believing that e.g. default args for "backtrace" would apply to "bt".
If needed, default-args could be allowed for GDB predefined commands
and aliases by adding a command
'set default-args GDB_COMMAND_OR_PREDEFINED_ALIAS [DEFAULT-ARGS...]'.
* 'alias' command now has a completer that helps to complete:
- ALIAS (if the user defines an alias after a prefix),
- the aliased COMMAND
- the possible options for the aliased COMMAND.
* Help and apropos commands show the definitions of the aliases
that have default arguments, e.g.
(gdb) help backtrace
backtrace, btf, where, bt
alias btf = backtrace -full -past-entry -past-main
Print backtrace of all stack frames, or innermost COUNT frames.
Usage: backtrace [OPTION]... [QUALIFIER]... [COUNT | -COUNT]
Options:
-entry-values no|only|preferred|if-needed|both|compact|default
Set printing of function arguments at function entry.

Replace all uses of it by type::field.
Note that since type::field returns a reference to the field, some spots
are used to assign the whole field structure. See ctfread.c, function
attach_fields_to_type, for example. This is the same as was happening
with the macro, so I don't think it's a problem, but if anybody sees a
really nicer way to do this, now could be a good time to implement it.
gdb/ChangeLog:

type::field.
Remove all uses of the `TYPE_FIELDS` macro. Replace them with either:
1) type::fields, to obtain a pointer to the fields array (same as
TYPE_FIELDS yields)
2) type::field, a new convenience method that obtains a reference to one
of the type's field by index. It is meant to replace
TYPE_FIELDS (type)[idx]
with
type->field (idx)
