This commits the result of running gdb/copyright.py as per our Start
of New Year procedure...
gdb/ChangeLog
Update copyright year range in copyright header of all GDB files.
I found myself wanting to run a few specific selftests while developing.
I thought it would be nice to be able to provide multiple test names
when running `maintenant selftests`. The arguments to that command is
currently interpreted as a single filter (not split by spaces), it now
becomes a list a filters, split by spaces. A test is executed when it
matches at least one filter.
Here's an example of the result in GDB:
(gdb) maintenance selftest xml
Running selftest xml_escape_text.
Running selftest xml_escape_text_append.
Ran 2 unit tests, 0 failed
(gdb) maintenance selftest xml unord
Running selftest unordered_remove.
Running selftest xml_escape_text.
Running selftest xml_escape_text_append.
Ran 3 unit tests, 0 failed
(gdb) maintenance selftest xml unord foobar
Running selftest unordered_remove.
Running selftest xml_escape_text.
Running selftest xml_escape_text_append.
Ran 3 unit tests, 0 failed
Since the selftest machinery is also shared with gdbserver, I also
adapted gdbserver. It accepts a `--selftest` switch, which accepts an
optional filter argument. I made it so you can now pass `--selftest`
multiple time to add filters.
It's not so useful right now though: there's only a single selftest
right now in GDB and it's for an architecture I can't compile. So I
tested by adding dummy tests, here's an example of the result:
$ ./gdbserver --selftest=foo
Running selftest foo.
foo
Running selftest foobar.
foobar
Ran 2 unit tests, 0 failed
$ ./gdbserver --selftest=foo --selftest=bar
Running selftest bar.
bar
Running selftest foo.
foo
Running selftest foobar.
foobar
Ran 3 unit tests, 0 failed
gdbsupport/ChangeLog:
* selftest.h (run_tests): Change parameter to array_view.
* selftest.c (run_tests): Change parameter to array_view and use
it.
gdb/ChangeLog:
* maint.c (maintenance_selftest): Split args and pass array_view
to run_tests.
gdbserver/ChangeLog:
* server.cc (captured_main): Accept multiple `--selftest=`
options. Pass all `--selftest=` arguments to run_tests.

This patch renames the .c source files in gdbsupport to .cc.
In the gdb directory, there is an argument against renaming the source
files, which is that it makes using some git commands more difficult to
do archeology. Some commands have some kind of "follow" option that
makes git try to follow renames, but it doesn't work in all situations.
Given that we have just moved the gdbsupport directory, that argument
doesn't hold for source files in that directory. I therefore suggest
renaming them to .cc, so that they are automatically recognized as C++
by various tools and editors.
The original motivation behind this is that when building gdbsupport
with clang, I get:
CC agent.o
clang: error: treating 'c' input as 'c++' when in C++ mode, this behavior is deprecated [-Werror,-Wdeprecated]
In the gdb/ directory, we make clang happy by passing "-x c++". We
could do this in gdbsupport too, but I think that renaming the files is
a better long-term solution.
gdbserver still does its own build of gdbsupport, so a few changes in
its Makefile are necessary.
gdbsupport/ChangeLog:
* Makefile.am: Rename source files from .c to .cc.
(CC, CFLAGS): Don't override.
(AM_CFLAGS): Rename to ...
(AM_CXXFLAGS): ... this.
* Makefile.in: Re-generate.
* %.c: Rename to %.cc.
gdbserver/ChangeLog:
* Makefile.in: Rename gdbsupport source files from .c to .cc.
