I tried using 'svn merge' to do the merge but it did a terrible job and
there were bazillions of conflicts. So instead I just took the diff between
the branch and trunk at r10155, applied the diff to the trunk, 'svn add'ed
the added files (no files needed to be 'svn remove'd) and committed.

- When printing suppressions, never print more entries than there are in the
stack. This avoids bogus suppressions in some cases! (I haven't seen
them on Linux, but I have seen them on Darwin.)
- When getting a stack trace, stop if we get an IP of zero or one; that
means we've hit the end of the stack. And don't include that entry in the
stack trace, because it's a guaranteed "???" if it's ever printed which is
useless.
- In VG_(apply_StackTrace), we can now rely entirely on the n_ip parameter
rather than looking for 0 or -1, because that check is done when the stack
trace is first obtained. In other words, stack traces all use an n_ip
parameter to record their size, whereas previously they used an odd
mixture of n_ip and null-termination.
- Rename 'n_ips' variables as 'max_n_ips' where appropriate; those left as
'n_ips' truly describe how many IPs there are in the stack trace.

numbers) when Valgrind is running Wine. Modified version of a
patch by John Reiser (vgsvn+wine-load-pdb-debuginfo.patch) with
extensions to read a second format of line number tables.
Wine uses a new client request, VG_USERREQ__LOAD_PDB_DEBUGINFO,
to tell Valgrind when to read PDB info. Wine's implementation
of module loading is vastly different from that used by
ld-linux.so, and it is too difficult to recognize what is going
on just by observing the calls to mmap and mprotect.

- Now more clearly distinguishing between C++-demangling, Z-demangling, and
below-main renaming, particularly in 'get_sym_name'.
- --demangle=no no longer prevents Z-demangling, which makes more sense,
although it's unlikely to affect anyone.
- Broke the circular dependency between m_demangle and m_debuginfo by moving
below-main renaming into m_debuginfo.
- Renamed some get_fnname_* functions to make their effect clearer, and
improved their comments.

'__libc_start_main', in Massif, m_debuginfo and m_stacktrace. As part of
this, --show-below-main is now visible to tools, and Massif pays attention
to it.
Improved the description of --show-below-main=yes in the manual.
Replaced some instances of "__libc_start_main" in the test *.exp files with
"(below main)", which is what will actually be seen. Also updated
scalar.stderr.exp*, which should make it get closer to actually passing.

of a lot of junk below the logical "-1" end mark. See added comments

stack unwind mechanism (the function VG_(record_ExeContext) et al),
clears up some associated kludges, and makes suppression matching work
more reliably.
Prior to this commit, a stack snapshot contained, at [0], the IP of
the relevant thread, and at all positions [1] and above, the return
addresses for the open calls.
When showing a snapshot to the user (in VG_(apply_StackTrace)), and
searching the stack for stack blocks (in VG_(get_data_description)), 1
is subtracted from positions [1] and above, so as to move these return
addresses back to the last byte of the calling instruction. This
subtraction is also done even in VG_(get_StackTrace_wrk) itself, in
order to make the stack unwinding work at all.
It turns out that suppression-vs-function-name matching requires the
same hack, and sometimes failed to match suppressions that should
match, because of this self-same problem.
So the commit changes the stack unwinder itself, so that entries [1]
and above point to the last byte of the call instruction, rather than
the return address. The associated kludges in VG_(apply_StackTrace)
and VG_(get_StackTrace_wrk) are removed, and suppression matching is
observed to work in a case where it failed before.

This helps avoid crashes trying to unwind the stack under wine when

kludges^H^H^H^H^H^H^Henhancements:
r6802: For VG_(record_ExeContext) et al, add a new parameter
(first_ip_delta) which is added to the initial IP value before the
stack is unwound. A safe value to pass is zero, which causes the
existing behaviour to be unchanged. This is a kludge needed to work
around the incomplete amd64 stack unwind info in glibc-2.5's clone()
routine.
r7059: Add a last-ditch heuristic-hack to the amd64-linux stack
unwinder, which is used when all other methods fail. Seems like GDB
has something similar.

Extensions for unwinding stacks on ppc32-aix5 and ppc64-aix5. Also,
extend the mechanism developed for ppc64-linux for fishing return
addresses out of the thread's redirection-stack when needed.

interface, except for the syscall numbers, into that. Mostly this
means moving include/vki-*.h to include/vki/vki-*.h.
include/pub_tool_basics.h previously dragged in the entire kernel
interface. I've done away with that, so that modules which need to
see the kernel interface now have to include pub_{core,tool}_vki.h
explicitly. This is why there are many modified .c files -- they have
all acquired an extra #include line.
This certainly breaks all platforms except x86. Will fix shortly.

differently performance-tuned. amd64 needs to consult CFI first and
then if that fails (unlikely) follow the %rbp chain. On x86, the CFI
is almost never helpful, but consulting it first wastes significant
time in allocation-intensive programs. This commit pulls the two
archs apart and puts the CFI check second on x86. This reduces start
time for ktuberling on x86 on memcheck from 78 seconds to 75.

ip before starting a new pass of the loop.
The reason for this is that (except for the first pass of the loop) the
value of ip is actually a return address, which is therefore after the
instruction that was executing at the time. This means that if there is
a boundary in the CFI information at that point we can wind up using the
wrong CFI data to do the next unwind if we do it based on the return
address.
This most commonly happens with a tail call where we wind up using the
data for the next function to do the unwind and getting hopelessly lost.

changes from r4341 through r4787 inclusive). That branch is now dead.
Please do not commit anything else to it.
For the most part the merge was not troublesome. The main areas of
uncertainty are:
- build system: I had to import by hand Makefile.core-AM_CPPFLAGS.am
and include it in a couple of places. Building etc seems to still
work, but I haven't tried building the documentation.
- syscall wrappers: Following analysis by Greg & Nick, a whole lot of
stuff was moved from -generic to -linux after the branch was created.
I think that is satisfactorily glued back together now.
- Regtests: although this appears to work, no .out files appear, which
is strange, and makes it hard to diagnose regtest failures. In
particular memcheck/tests/x86/scalar.stderr.exp remains in a
conflicted state.
- amd64 is broken (slightly), and ppc32 will be unbuildable. I'll
attend to the former shortly.

snapshots on ppc32-linux in the presence of functions subject to
leaf-function optimisations.
At the same time, simplify the stack unwinding logic by basically
implementing it separately for each target. Having a single piece of
logic for amd64 and x86 was tenable, but merging ppc32 into it is too
confusing. So now there is an x86/amd64 unwinder and a ppc32
unwinder.
This requires plumbing a link-register value into
VG_(get_StackTrace2), and that in turn requires passing it around
several other stack-trace-related functions. Hence 7 changed files.

As a result, I was able to move the Segment type declaration into
pub_core_aspacemgr.h, which is a much better spot. I was also able to
remove a couple of #includes.
