variable is set prior to invoking progB.

To do that a small enhancement to vg_regtest was needed:
(1) New declaration to allow specifying an environemnt variable
that is set prior to invoking valgrind.
eg: env: VAR=VAL
There can be more than one such declaration
(2) prog-asis: program_name
This is like prog: except the program name is not prefixed with
the testdir.

* perf/vg_perf:
Similarly to tests/vg_regtest, perf/vg_perf now accepts the 3
optional arguments:
--outer-valgrind
--outer-tool
--outer-args
This allows easy analysis or comparison of performance between
different Valgrind versions (e.g. using callgrind, or cachegrind/cg_diff).
* See README_DEVELOPERS for more details.
* vg_regtest modified so as to use the 'in-place' build of inner, rather
than the installed version.
* added option --smc-check=all-non-file to vg_perf and vg_regtest
outer default arguments (needed when evaluating a Valgrind which does
translation chaining).

A '3 lines how to':
perl tests/vg_regtest --outer-valgrind=../trunk_untouched/install/bin/valgrind --all
(the outer results for a test xxx is in xxx.outer.log)
To run with another tool (e.g. drd), add the argument --outer-tool=drd
Still to do/things to improve:
* Most (inner) tests are successful when running under an outer
memcheck. Need to analyse the reasons of remaining failures.
* The memcheck annotations in m_mallocfree.c can be improved:
- A superblock is marked 'undefined', it should rather be marked
'no access'.
- When a free block is splitted, the remaining free block is
not made 'no access'. Instead, it is made 'undefined'.
=> this decreases the chance to find bugs.
=> this is not very efficient (e.g. the rest of a superblock
is often marked undefined repetitively).
Similarly, the free block created by VG_(arena_memalign)
is marked 'undefined'. 'No access' would be preferrable.
- mkInuseBlock marks the new block as undefined. This is probably
not needed, as VALGRIND_MALLOCLIKE_BLOCK will do it already.
- VG_(arena_malloc) should give the requested size to
VALGRIND_MALLOCLIKE_BLOCK, not the malloc usable size,
as this decreases the chance to find buffer overrun bugs.
But giving the requested size is tricky (see comments in
the code).
* need to do memcheck annotations in m_poolalloc.c
so as to allow leak checking for pool allocated elements.
* vg_regtest.in
- should analyse the results of the outer and should
produce a separate result for the tests for which
the outer detects an error or a memory leak or ...
Changes done:
README_DEVELOPERS: document the new outer/inner features.
manual-core.xml: document the new sim-hint no-inner-prefix
tests/outer_inner.supp: new file, containing the suppressions for inner.
vg_regtest.in: implement new args --outer-valgrind, --outer-tool, --outer-args.
m_mallocfree.c: annotations for memcheck.
m_libcprint.c: handle the new sim-hint no-inner-prefix
m_main.c: do an (early) parse of --sim-hints

bucket. Instead of removing what we don't want to see in a backtrace
(e.g. path segments through libc and libpthread), we simply keep what
we do want to see. That way .exp files can be generic.
We need to make sure that GCC inlining does not get in the way. So all
the ..._WRK function in hg_intercepts.c are attributed as noinline.
The backtrace filtering is done in the new filter_helgrind script.
filter_stderr is simplified quite a bit.
Fixes bug #281468. See also the comments #5 and #6 there.

on various platforms:
* In all gdbserver_tests using gdb:
Made a more general way to remove the initial start message.
* tests using threads burning cpu modified to have only 1 thread.
This makes them independent of the scheduler fairness.
* filter_gdb and filter_vgdb enhanced to anonymise
some debian 6.0/ppc specific things
some s390x/gdb 7.0, gdb 7.1 specific things
* vgdb.c: added an #include <linux/ptrace.h> to fix compilation
on s390x fedora and suse. (Christian Boerntrager)
* fixed a bug in valgrind-low.c debug log :
when a register size is 0, its image cannot be output (and register
should not be transferred).
* added a parameter --keep-unfiltered to vg_regtest.in
This will make it easier to update filter_gdb:
in case gdbserver_tests are failing due to "artificial"
differences to be filtered, re-run the tests using:
perl tests/vg_regtest --keep-unfiltered gdbserver_tests
Then a tar file with all the *.out in gdbserver_tests
will allow me to better/faster update the filter_gdb.
* made a better detection of a working PTRACE_GETREGS at compile time
and/or at run-time.
This is the patch on bug 214909 comment 69.

- by vg_regtest for determining if a directory name matches an architecture;
- by various .vgtest files for detecting x86/AMD64 features.
This commit splits it in two for the two different purposes, which makes
things clearer.
Specific changes
- Moved the x86/AMD64 feature detection stuff out of arch_test.c, and
into the new x86_amd64_feature.c. Updated the relevant .vgtest files for
the change.
- In vg_regtest, now a prereq command must return 0 (prereq satisfied) or 1
(prereq not satisfied). Anything else makes vg_regtest abort. This
makes obvious any problems with prereq tests rather than just making the
tests skip innocuously. (We previously had exactly such a problem on the
DARWIN branch; the x86 feature detection tests caused segfaults so the
tests were incorrectly skipped. This change will catch any similar future
problem.)
- Changed os_test from a script to a C program, matching cpu_test.
- Removed some unintentional darwin stuff from platform_test.

Allow a test to have any number of .stderr.exp* files, so long as at
least one is found. In fact the comments in the code that claimed
that .stderr.exp[0-9] are the only ones allowed were misleading;
.stderr.exp* has always been allowed. The only functional change here
is to mandate that at least one such file exists; prior to the change
the script mandated that at least a .stderr.exp (with no other suffix)
file existed.
Purpose is to allow collections of .stderr.exp files with suffixes
arranged in some meaningful way, eg, foo.stderr.exp-glibc25-amd64.
This might help in making testsuites more maintainable when there
have to be multiple .stderr.exp files. Naming them merely as
.stderr.exp1, .stderr.exp2, etc, makes it impossible to remember
what the differences between the files actually is.

- ms_main.c: completely overhauled.
- massif/tests/*: lots of them now.
- massif/perf/: added.
- massif/hp2ps: removed. No longer used.
- vg_regtest: renamed the previously unused "posttest" notion to "post".
Using it for checking ms_print's output.
Although the code has changed dramatically, as has the form of the tool's
output, the information presented in the output is basically the same,
although it's now (hopefully) much more useful. So the tool name is
unchanged.

useful (eg) for running tests with --sanity-level= set. Print a

Memcheck, replacing the 9-bits-per-byte shadow memory representation to a
2-bits-per-byte representation (with possibly a little more on the side) by
taking advantage of the fact that extremely few memory bytes are partially
defined.
For the SPEC2k benchmarks with "test" inputs, this speeds up Memcheck by a
(geometric mean) factor of 1.20, and reduces the size of shadow memory by a
(geometric mean) factor of 4.26.
At the same time, Addrcheck is removed. It hadn't worked for quite some
time, and with these improvements in Memcheck its raisons-d'etre have
shrivelled so much that it's not worth the effort to keep around. Hooray!
Nb: this code hasn't been tested on PPC. If things go wrong, look first in
the fast stack-handling functions (eg. mc_new_mem_stack_160,
MC_(helperc_MAKE_STACK_UNINIT)).

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.

string in valgrind.pc.in, so that they describe Valgrind as a "dynamic

- Added a hacky mechanism which prevents the regtest script from entering
directories for other architectures. (Eg. when running on x86/, it won't enter
a ppc/ subdir.)

which caused the test to be skipped if the CPU type wasn't appropriate,
with a "prereq" line, which specifies a command that must succeed before
the test is run.

- Change regtest script to print a message if a test is skipped due to the cpu
being of the wrong type.

- If no tool is specified, V now gives a short message and a list of
available tools. This was meant to happen previously, but a bug prevented
it from working properly; it gave the usage message instead.
- If a bad option is given, V now gives a short message rather than the full
--help. This make V consistent with all other programs I looked at.
- Now returning 0 when you do 'valgrind --help' and 'valgrind --version'
as other programs do.
- Removed VG_(startup_logging)() and VG_(shutdown_logging)() as they were
empty and have been for a long time (always?).
- Added various tests for these scenarios. Had to change the regtest
script slightly to allow for malformed command lines.
This addresses bug (wishlist) #82999.

Patch to improve SSE/SS2 support
This patch should implement most of the missing SSE/SSE2 opcodes. About
the only ones it doesn't do are the MASKMOVxxx ones as they are quite
horrible and involved an implicit reference to EDI so I need to think
about them a bit more.
The patch also includes a set of tests for the MMX/SSE/SSE2 opcodes to
validate that they have the same effect under valgrind as they do when
run normally. In one or two cases this wasn't actually the case even
for some of the implemented opcodes, so I fixed those as well ;-)

Valgrind's dependency on the dynamic linker for getting started, and
instead takes things into its own hands.
This checkin doesn't add much in the way of new functionality, but it
is the basis for all future work on Valgrind. It allows us much more
flexibility in implementation, and well as increasing the reliability
of Valgrind by protecting it more from its clients.
This patch requires some changes to tools to update them to the changes
in the tool API, but they are straightforward. See the posting "Heads
up: Full Virtualization" on valgrind-developers for a more complete
description of this change and its effects on you.
