714bf4f222 gprofng: 32018 Compilation of binutils 2.43 failed on CentOS 6
strchr is redefined as a macro in /usr/include/bits/string.h on CentOS 6/7.
In this case, we may not use our CALL_UTIL macro for strchr.
Use __collector_strchr instead of "CALL_UTIL (strchr)".

libctf: fix ctf_archive_count return value on big-endian
This failed to properly byteswap its return value.

The ctf_archive format predates the idea of "just write natively and
flip on open", and byteswaps all over the place.  It's too easy to
forget one.  The next revision of the archive format (not versioned,
so we just tweak the magic number instead) should be native-endianned
like the dicts inside it are.

	* ctf-archive.c (ctf_archive_count): Byteswap return value.

libctf: fix ref leak of names of newly-inserted non-root-visible types
A bug in ctf_dtd_delete led to refs in the string table to the
names of non-root-visible types not being removed when the DTD
was.  This seems harmless, but actually it would lead to a write
down a pointer into freed memory if such a type was ctf_rollback()ed
over and then the dict was serialized (updating all the refs as the
strtab was serialized in turn).

Bug introduced in commit fe4c2d5563
("libctf: create: non-root-visible types should not appear in name tables")
which is included in binutils 2.35.

libctf/
	* ctf-create.c (ctf_dtd_delete): Remove refs for all types
	with names, not just root-visible ones.

libctf: clean up hashtab error handling mess
The dict and archive opening code in libctf is somewhat unusual, because
unlike everything else, it cannot report errors by setting an error on the
dict, because in case of error there isn't one.  They get passed an error
integer pointer that is set on error instead.

Inside ctf_bufopen this is implemented by calling ctf_set_open_errno and
passing it a positive error value.  In turn this means that most things it
calls (including init_static_types) return zero on success and a *positive*
ECTF_* or errno value on error.

This trickles down to ctf_dynhash_insert_type, which is used by
init_static_types to add newly-detected types to the name tables.  This was
returning the error value it received from a variety of functions without
alteration.  ctf_dynhash_insert conformed to this contract by returning a
positive value on error (usually OOM), which is unfortunate for multiple
reasons:

- ctf_dynset_insert returns a *negative* value
- ctf_dynhash_insert and ctf_dynset_insert don't take an fp, so the value
  they return is turned into the errno, so it had better be right, callers
  don't just check for != 0 here
- more or less every single caller of ctf_dyn*_insert in libctf other than
  ctf_dynhash_insert_type (and there are a *lot*, mostly in the
  deduplicator) assumes that ctf_dynhash_insert returns a negative value
  on error, even though it doesn't.  In practice the only possible error is
  OOM, but if OOM does happen we end up with a nonsense error value.

The simplest fix for this seems to be to make ctf_dynhash_insert and
ctf_dynset_insert conform to the usual interface contract: negative
values are errors.  This in turn means that ctf_dynhash_insert_type
needs to change: let's make it consistent too, returning a negative
value on error, putting the error on the fp in non-negated form.

init_static_types_internal adapts to this by negating the error return from
ctf_dynhash_insert_type, so the value handed back to ctf_bufopen is still
positive: the new call site in ctf_track_enumerator does not need to change.

(The existing tests for this reliably detect when I get it wrong.
I know, because they did.)

libctf/
	* ctf-hash.c (ctf_dynhash_insert): Negate return value.
	(ctf_dynhash_insert_type): Set de-negated error on the dict:
        return negated error.
	* ctf-open.c (init_static_types_internal): Adapt to this change.

libctf, include: add ctf_dict_set_flag: less enum dup checking by default
The recent change to detect duplicate enum values and return ECTF_DUPLICATE
when found turns out to perturb a great many callers.  In particular, the
pahole-created kernel BTF has the same problem we historically did, and
gleefully emits duplicated enum constants in profusion.  Handling the
resulting duplicate errors from BTF -> CTF converters reasonably is
unreasonably difficult (it amounts to forcing them to skip some types or
reimplement the deduplicator).

So let's step back a bit.  What we care about mostly is that the
deduplicator treat enums with conflicting enumeration constants as
conflicting types: programs that want to look up enumeration constant ->
value mappings using the new APIs to do so might well want the same checks
to apply to any ctf_add_* operations they carry out (and since they're
*using* the new APIs, added at the same time as this restriction was
imposed, there is likely to be no negative consequence of this).

So we want some way to allow processes that know about duplicate detection
to opt into it, while allowing everyone else to stay clear of it: but we
want ctf_link to get this behaviour even if its caller has opted out.

So add a new concept to the API: dict-wide CTF flags, set via
ctf_dict_set_flag, obtained via ctf_dict_get_flag.  They are not bitflags
but simple arbitrary integers and an on/off value, stored in an unspecified
manner (the one current flag, we translate into an LCTF_* flag value in the
internal ctf_dict ctf_flags word). If you pass in an invalid flag or value
you get a new ECTF_BADFLAG error, so the caller can easily tell whether
flags added in future are valid with a particular libctf or not.

We check this flag in ctf_add_enumerator, and set it around the link
(including on child per-CU dicts).  The newish enumerator-iteration test is
souped up to check the semantics of the flag as well.

The fact that the flag can be set and unset at any time has curious
consequences. You can unset the flag, insert a pile of duplicates, then set
it and expect the new duplicates to be detected, not only by
ctf_add_enumerator but also by ctf_lookup_enumerator.  This means we now
have to maintain the ctf_names and conflicting_enums enum-duplication
tracking as new enums are added, not purely as the dict is opened.
Move that code out of init_static_types_internal and into a new
ctf_track_enumerator function that addition can also call.

(None of this affects the file format or serialization machinery, which has
to be able to handle duplicate enumeration constants no matter what.)

libctf: link: remember to turn off the LCTF_LINKING flag after ctf_link_write
We set this flag at the top of ctf_link_write (to tell ctf_serialize, way
down under the archive file writing functions, to do the various link- time
serialization things like symbol filtering and the like), but we never
remember to clear it except on error.  This is probably bad if you want to
serialize the dict yourself directly in the future after linking it (which
is...  definitely a *possible* use of the API, if rather strange).

libctf: fix dynset insertion
libctf's dynsets are a straight wrapper around libiberty hashtab, storing
the key directly in the hashtab slot.  However, we'd often like to be able
to store 0 and 1 (HTAB_EMPTY_ENTRY and HTAB_DELETED_ENTRY) in there, so we
move them out of the way and replace them with huge unlikely values
instead.  Unfortunately we failed to do this replacement in one place, so
insertion of 0 or 1 ended up misinforming the hashtab machinery that an
entry was empty or deleted when it wasn't.

libctf: fix CTF dict compression
Commit 483546ce4f ("libctf: make ctf_serialize() actually serialize")
accidentally broke dict compression.  There were two bugs:

 - ctf_arc_write_one_ctf was still making its own decision about
   whether to compress the dict via direct ctf_size comparison, which is
   unfortunate because now that it no longer calls ctf_serialize itself,
   ctf_size is always zero when it does this: it should let the writing
   functions decide on the threshold, which they contain code to do which is
   simply not used for lack of one trivial wrapper to write to an fd and
   also provide a compression threshold

 - ctf_write_mem, the function underlying all writing as of the commit
   above, was calling zlib's compressBound and avoiding compression if this
   returned a value larger than the input.  Unfortunately compressBound does
   not do a trial compression and determine whether the result is
   compressible: it just adds zlib header sizes to the value passed in, so
   our test would *always* have concluded that the value was incompressible!
   Avoid by simply always compressing if the raw size is larger than the
   threshold: zlib is quite clever enough to avoid actually compressing
   if the data is incompressible.

Add a testcase for this.

libctf: fix linking of non-root-visible types
If you deduplicate non-root-visible types, the resulting type should still
be non-root-visible! We were promoting all such types to root-visible, and
re-demoting them only if their names collided (which might happen on
cu-mapped links if multiple compilation units with conflicting types are
fused into one child dict).

This "worked" before now, in that linking at least didn't fail (if you don't
mind having your non-root flag value destroyed if you're adding
non-root-visible types), but now that conflicting enumerators cause their
containing enums to become conflicted (enums which might have *different
names*), this caused the linker to crash when it hit two enumerators with
conflicting values.

Not testable in ld because cu-mapped links are not exposed to ld, but can be
tested via direct creation of libraries and calls to ctf_link directly.
(This also tests the ctf_dump non-root type printout, which before now
was untested.)

libctf, dump: correctly dump non-root-visible types
The flag test when dumping non-root-visible tyeps was doubly wrong: the
flags word is a *bitfield* containing CTF_ADD_ROOT as one possible

so cannot be tested for this way: one must check for the non-presence of
CTF_ADD_ROOT.

libctf, string: split the movable refs out of the ref list
In commit 149ce5c263 we introduced the concept of "movable" refs,
which are refs that can be moved in batches, to let us maintain valid ref
lists even when adding refs to blocks of memory that can be realloced (which
is any type containing a vlen which can expand, like names contained within
enum or struct members).  Movable refs need a backpointer to the movable
refs dynhash for this dict; since non-movable refs are very common, we tried
to save memory by having a slightly bigger struct for moveable refs with a
backpointer in it, and casting appropriately, indicating which sort of ref
we were dealing with via a flag on the atom.

Unfortunately this doesn't work reliably, because you can perfectly well
have a string ("foo", say) which has both non-movable refs (say, an external
symbol and a variable name) and movable refs (say, a structure member name)
to the same atom.  Indicate which struct we're dealing with with an atom
flag and suddenly you're casting a ctf_str_atom_ref to a
ctf_str_atom_ref_movable (which is bigger) and dereferencing random memory
off the end of it and interpreting it as a backpointer to the movable refs
dynhash.  This is unlikely to work well.

So bite the bullet and split refs into two separate lists, one for movable
refs, one for immovable refs. It means some annoying code duplication, but
there's not very much of it, and it means we can keep the movable refs
hashtab (which in turn means we don't have to do linear searches to find all
relevant refs when moving refs, which in turn means that
structure/union/enum member additions remain amortized O(n) time, not
O(n^2).

Callers can now purge movable and non-movable refs independently of each
other.  We don't use this yet, but a use is coming.

237c05a65f Re: binutils: Add a test for strip with build notes
The new test wasn't being run, and failed due to relocations against
.gnu.build.attributes being stripped by default strip behaviour.
We probably should be keeping these relocations, but I haven't made
that change here.
BTW, the new test fails on ia64-hpux but that's just a repeat of the
existing note-5 fail.

	PR 31999
	* testsuite/binutils-all/strip-16.d: strip with --strip-unneeded
	and --merge-notes.
	* testsuite/binutils-all/objcopy.exp: Run the new test.  Sort
	other strip tests.

c5c3b90970 gdb-gdb.py: strip typedefs in intrusive_list printer assertion
When debugging gdb itself and trying to print a intrusive_list that has
more than one element, I get:

    File "/home/simark/build/binutils-gdb-all-targets/gdb/gdb-gdb.py", line 365, in _children_generator
      node_ptr = self._as_node_ptr(elem_ptr)
                 ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
    File "/home/simark/build/binutils-gdb-all-targets/gdb/gdb-gdb.py", line 345, in _as_node_ptr
      assert elem_ptr.type.code == gdb.TYPE_CODE_PTR
             ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
    AssertionError

This is because node_ptr is a typedef
(intrusive_list_base_iterator::pointer).  Add a call to strip_typedefs
to get to the real type.

Enhance gdb.gdb/python-helper.exp with a test that would have caught
this bug.

b39807cc93 MIPS/opcodes: Replace "y" microMIPS operand code with "x"
Replace the "y" microMIPS operand code, used with ALNV.PS only, with "x"
so as to make "y" available for microMIPS MT use.

0ffc724699 MIPS/opcodes: Mark MT thread context move assembly idioms as aliases
A number of instructions in the regular MIPS opcode table are assembly
idioms for the MT thread context move MFTR and MTTR instructions, so
mark them as aliases accordingly.  Add suitable test cases, which also
cover the PAUSE assembly idiom.

d8b73b41a2 MIPS/opcodes: Mark PAUSE as an alias
PAUSE is an assembly idiom for 'sll $0,$0,5', so mark it as an alias in
the regular MIPS opcode table, matching the microMIPS opcode table.  A
test case will be supplied separately.

6b34e39c39 MIPS/opcodes: Reorder coprocessor moves alphabetically
A number of coprocessor move encodings have been randomly sprinkled over
the regular MIPS and microMIPS opcode tables rather than where they'd be
expected following the alphabetic order.  Fix the ordering, taking into
account precedence where it has to be observed for correct disassembly.
No functional change.
