[PATCHv4 1/3] gdb: Remove a VEC from gdbsupport/btrace-common.h

Andrew Burgess andrew.burgess@embecosm.com
Thu Sep 26 11:41:00 GMT 2019


Converts a VEC into a std::vector in gdbsupport/btrace-common.h.  This
commit just performs a mechanical conversion and doesn't do any
refactoring.  One consequence of this is that the std::vector must
actually be a pointer to std::vector as it is placed within a union.
It might be possible in future to refactor to a class hierarchy and
remove the need for a union, but I'd rather have that be a separate
change to make it easier to see the evolution of the code.

gdb/ChangeLog:

	* btrace.c (btrace_compute_ftrace_bts): Update for std::vector,
	make accesses into the vector constant references.
	(btrace_add_pc): Update for std::vector.
	(btrace_stitch_bts): Likewise.
	(parse_xml_btrace_block): Likewise.
	(btrace_maint_update_packets): Likewise.
	(btrace_maint_print_packets): Likewise.
	(maint_info_btrace_cmd): Likewise.
	* btrace.h: Add 'gdbsupport/vec.h' include.
	* gdbsupport/btrace-common.c (btrace_data::fini): Update for
	std::vector.
	(btrace_data::empty): Likewise.
	(btrace_data_append): Likewise.
	* gdbsupport/btrace-common.h: Remove 'vec.h' include and use of
	DEF_VEC_O.
	(typedef btrace_block_s): Delete.
	(struct btrace_block): Add constructor.
	(struct btrace_data_bts) <blocks>: Change to std::vector.
	(struct btrace_data_bts) <blocks_size>: New function.
	(struct btrace_data_bts) <blocks_empty>: New function.
	* nat/linux-btrace.c (perf_event_read_bts): Update for
	std::vector.
	(linux_read_bts): Likewise.

gdb/gdbserver/ChangeLog:

	* linux-low.c (linux_low_read_btrace): Update for change to
	std::vector.
