The FAIL is due to this comparison in iterate_over_some_symtabs failing:
...

The difference in pathnames is due to having a symlink dir:
...
$ ls -la /home/vries/gdb_versions
lrwxrwxrwx 1 vries users 18 26 jun 2018 /home/vries/gdb_versions -> /data/gdb_versions

and the test passses when eliminating it:
...
$ ( cd $(pwd -P); make check RUNTESTFLAGS=gdb.base/fullname.exp )
...
The FAIL is a regression from commit a0c1ffedcf "Only compute realpath when
basenames_may_differ is set". Before, find_and_open_source was returning a
real-path, resulting in variable 'fullname' being the same as varible
'real_path' in the comparison listed above. But after, that's no longer the
case.
Fix the FAIL by applying gdb_realpath on the fullname variable before the
comparison.
Tested on x86_64-linux.
I wasn't able to write a test-case. The FAIL starts at:
...
$ cd build/gdb
$ mv testsuite testsuite.bla
$ ln -s testsuite.bla testsuite

but already this doesn't trigger it anymore:

XXHash is faster than htab_hash_string:

Unfortunately, XXH3 is still experimental (see
https://github.com/Cyan4973/xxHash#user-content-new-experimental-hash-algorithm)
However, regular XXH64 is still a lot faster than
htab_hash_string per my benchmark above. I used the
following string for the benchmark:
static constexpr char str[] = "_ZZZL13make_gdb_typeP7gdbarchP10tdesc_typeEN16gdb_type_creator19make_gdb_type_flagsEPK22tdesc_type_with_fieldsE19__PRETTY_FUNCTION__";
htab_hash_string is currently 4.35% + 7.98% (rehashing) of gdb
startup when attaching to Chrome's content_shell.
An additional 5.21% is spent in msymbol_hash, which does not use
this hash function. Unfortunately, since it has to lowercase the
string, it can't use this hash function.
BM_msymbol_hash 52 ns 52 ns 13281495
It may be worth investigating if strlen+XXHash is still faster than
htab_hash_string, which would make it easier to use in more places.
Debian ships xxhash as libxxhash{0,-dev}. Fedora ships it as xxhash-devel.

After the switch to use std::sort, if GDB is compiled with the
-D_GLIBCXX_DEBUG=1 flag then we see an error when using sort_cmp (in
objfiles.c) to sort obj_section objects.
The problem is that std::sort checks that the condition !(a < a)
holds, and currently this is not true. GDB's sort_cmp is really
designed to sort lists in which no obj_section repeats, however, there
is some code in place to try and ensure we get a stable sort order if
there is a bug in GDB, unfortunately this code fails the above check.
By reordering some of the checks inside sort_cmp, it is pretty easy to
ensure that the !(a < a) condition holds.
I've not bothered to make this condition check optimal, like I said
this code is only in place to ensure that we get stable results if GDB
goes wrong, so I've made the smallest change needed to get the correct
behaviour.
After this commit I see no regressions when running GDB compiled with
-D_GLIBCXX_DEBUG=1.

The dg-extract-results scripts have been updated in the gcc
repository. This commit copies the updated versions of the scripts in
to the binutils-gdb repository.
There are two changes, these are:
1. Improved detection of timeout lines, though I suspect this only
applies to gcc results, and
2. Detection of KPASS results, this is of interest to gdb, where
these results would not be included in the final .sum file.
A grep over binutils-gdb shows the dg-extract-results is not used by
ld, gas, or binutils, however I tested these anyway and saw no changes
in the final .sum files (tested on x86-64 GNU/Linux).
On gdb when running tests in parallel dg-extract-results is used, and
the final .sum file now includes the KPASS results.

My earlier patch -- commit c5adaa192 ("Fix creation of stamp-h by
gdb's configure script") -- broke the creation of nm.h. In
particular, configure removes nm.h, so if you touch configure and
rebuild, nothing will re-create the link, breaking the build.
This patch fixes the bug, and also updates configure.ac to use
AC_CONFIG_LINKS, rather than the obsolete AC_LINK_FILES.
Finally, I noticed that gcore is in generated_files in the
Makefile.in. I think this is incorrect, as generated_files is only
needed for files that can be the target of a #include. So, this patch
removes it.

As mentioned in commit 745ff14e6e "[gdb/tdep] Fix 'Unexpected register class'
assert in amd64_push_arguments", of the 12 KFAILs added there, 3 are KPASSing
with g++ 4.8.5.
The KPASSes are due to:
- gdb incorrectly expecting the second half of the result of function
rtn_str_struct_02_01 in register %rdx.
- rtn_str_struct_02_01 using %rdx as a temporary, thereby accidentally setting
it to the expected value.
Reduce the chance of hiding errors due accidental register settings by
compiling the test-case with -O2.
This fixes the KPASSes when applied on top of commit 745ff14e6e.

This change increases the default alignment for the .plt section
from 4 bytes to 8 bytes. When function descriptors are 8-byte
aligned, they can be updated atomically on 32-bit hppa. This
helps with ordering issues on SMP machines. It also ensures
that descriptors reside on the same cache line. This reduces
the probability of a double TLB miss in a call.

Two patches from Nelson Chu.
It is better to use the linker's callback functions to handle the link time
error when relocating. The unresolved relocation error can be regarded as
an unsupported relocation. To make user easier to understand different errors,
we need to extend the current error message format of the callback function
since the format is fixed.
bfd/
* elfnn-riscv.c (riscv_elf_relocate_section): Use asprintf to extend
the error message if needed, and then store the result into the
`msg_buf`. Finally, remember to free the unused `msg_buf`. All error
message for the dangerous relocation should be set before we call the
callback function. If we miss the error message since linker runs out
of memory, we should set the default error message for the error.

R_RISCV_CALL, R_RISCV_JAL and R_RISCV_RVC_JUMP are pc-relative relocation.
For now, we do not allow the object with these relocation links into a shared
library since the referenced symbols may be loaded to the places that too far
from the pc. We can improve the error message for these unsupported relocation
to notice user that they should recompile their code with `fPIC`.

* gdb.fortran/module.exp: Extend with 'info variables' test.

The board file cc-with-tweaks is used as the core for lots of other
board files, for example cc-with-gdb-index and cc-with-debug-names.
This commit extends cc-with-tweaks so that it will wrap the Fortran
compiler, allowing for more test coverage.
I tested all of the board files that make use of cc-with-tweaks
running the gdb.fortran/*.exp test set, and in some cases I did see
extra failures. The "standard" results are:
=== gdb Summary ===
# of expected passes 953
# of known failures 2
With board file 'cc-with-dwz-m':
=== gdb Summary ===
# of expected passes 903
# of unexpected failures 1
# of known failures 2
# of untested testcases 4
With board file 'dwarf4-gdb-index':
=== gdb Summary ===
# of expected passes 950
# of unexpected failures 3
# of known failures 2
With board file 'fission-dwp':
=== gdb Summary ===
# of expected passes 949
# of unexpected failures 4
# of known failures 2
Despite these extra failure I don't think this should prevent this
change going in as these failures presumably already exist in GDB.

Saving the signal state is very slow (this patch is a 14% speedup). The
reason we need this code is because signal handler will leave the
signal blocked when we longjmp out of it. But in this case we can
just manually unblock the signal instead of taking the unconditional
perf hit.

This is another fuzzer bug, gdb/23567. This time, the fuzzer has
specifically altered the size of .debug_str:
$ eu-readelf -S objdump
Section Headers:
[Nr] Name Type Addr Off Size ES Flags Lk Inf Al
[31] .debug_str PROGBITS 0000000000000000 0057116d ffffffffffffffff 1 MS 0 0 1
When this file is loaded into GDB, the DWARF reader crashes attempting
to access the string table (or it may just store a bunch of nonsense):
[gdb-8.3-6-fc30]

error (_("%s used without %s section [in module %s]"),

gdb_assert (HOST_CHAR_BIT == 8);
if (sect->buffer[str_offset] == '\0')
return NULL;
return (const char *) (sect->buffer + str_offset);
}
With sect_size being ginormous, the code attempts to access
sect->buffer[GINORMOUS], and depending on the layout of memory,
GDB either stores a bunch of gibberish strings or crashes.
This is an attempt to mitigate this by implementing a similar approach
used by BFD. In our case, we simply reject the section with the invalid
length:
$ ./gdb -nx -q objdump
BFD: warning: /path/to/objdump has a corrupt section with a size (ffffffffffffffff) larger than the file size

Unfortunately, I have not found a way to regression test this, since it
requires poking ELF section headers.

This adds initial compile command support to the RISC-V port. This fixes
about 228 testsuite failures on a riscv64-linux machine. We need to get
the triplet right which is normally riscv64 or riscv32 instead of the
default riscv. Also, we need to get the compiler options right, since we
don't accept the default -m64 and -mcmodel=large options, so we need to
construct -march and -mabi options which are correct for the target. We
currently don't have info about all extensions used by the target, so this
may need to be adjusted later. For now, I'm assuming that we have all
extensions required by the linux platform spec.

xml-builtin.c only has character arrays and no dependencies, so this
creates a simple header file for that purpose so that gdbserver
can include that instead of re-declaring xml_builtin.
Despite the name, feature_to_c.sh is already specific to xml_builtins
(it hardcodes the variable name), so making it always output the
include for xml-builtin.h seems fine.

Apparently [1], if we have a function with `inline` but not `static`,
there should be a compilation unit defining the symbol too.
Alternatively, making those functions `static` fixes that.

We currently have 12 KFAILS in gdb.base/infcall-nested-structs.exp for
PR tdep/25096.
A minimal version of the failure looks like this. Consider test.c:
...
struct s { int c; struct { int a; float b; } s1; };
struct s ref = { 0, { 'a', 'b' } };
int __attribute__((noinline,noclone)) check (struct s arg)
{ return arg.s1.a == 'a' && arg.s1.b == 'b' && arg.c == 0; }
int main (void)
{ return check (ref); }
...
When calling 'check (ref)' from main, we have '1' as expected:
...
$ g++ test.c -g ; ./a.out ; echo $?
1
...
But when calling 'check (ref)' from the gdb prompt, we get '0':
...
$ gdb a.out -batch -ex start -ex "p check (ref)"
Temporary breakpoint 1 at 0x400518: file test.c, line 8.
Temporary breakpoint 1, main () at test.c:8
8 { return check (ref); }
$1 = 0
...
The layout of struct s is this:
- the field c occupies 4 bytes at offset 0,
- the s1.a field occupies 4 bytes at offset 4, and
- the s1.b field occupies 4 bytes at offset 8.
When compiling at -O2, we can see from the disassembly of main:
...
4003f0: 48 8b 3d 31 0c 20 00 mov 0x200c31(%rip),%rdi \
# 601028 <ref>
4003f7: f3 0f 10 05 31 0c 20 movss 0x200c31(%rip),%xmm0 \
# 601030 <ref+0x8>
4003fe: 00
4003ff: e9 ec 00 00 00 jmpq 4004f0 <_Z5check1s>
...
that check is called with fields c and s1.a passed in %rdi, and s1.b passed
in %xmm0.
However, the classification in theclass (a variable representing the first and
second eightbytes, to put it in SYSV X86_64 psABI terms) in
amd64_push_arguments is incorrect:
...
(gdb) p theclass
$1 = {AMD64_INTEGER, AMD64_INTEGER}
...
and therefore the struct is passed using %rdi and %rsi instead of using %rdi
and %xmm0, which explains the failure.
The reason that we're misclassifying the argument in amd64_classify_aggregate
has to do with how nested struct are handled.
Rather than using fields c and s1.a for the first eightbyte, and using field
s1.b for the second eightbyte, instead field c is used for the first
eightbyte, and fields s1.a and s1.b are classified together in an intermediate
eightbyte, which is then used to merge with both the first and second
eightbyte.
Fix this by factoring out a new function amd64_classify_aggregate_field, and
letting it recursively handle fields of nested structs.
Tested on x86_64-linux.
Tested with g++ 4.8.5, 7.4.1, 8.3.1, 9.2.1.
Tested with clang++ 5.0.2 (which requires removing additional_flags=-Wno-psabi
and adding additional_flags=-Wno-deprecated).
