idea is the same -- write functions with special names encoding
sonames and fn names, and have the redir mechanism notice them.
However the way the functions are generated is significantly changed:
* The name mangling scheme has been replaced with one which is just about
simple enough not to need a preprocessing phase. Hence
vg_replace_malloc.c.base is replaced by vg_replace_malloc.c, and
the preprocessor disappears. The demangler in vg_symtab2.c changes
accordingly.
* Kill off the horrendous LIBALIAS macro. In return we have to
enumerate all the redirections longhand, but this is not a big deal.
* Remove use of the GNUisms "attribute alias" and "attribute
protected".
* Remove the hardwired assumption that any C++ new/new[]/etc symbols
we might want to intercept are mangled in GNU style.
* Add more comments.

two halves: stacktrace.c, which deals with getting, traversing and printing
stack traces; and execontext.c, which deals with storing stack traces
permanently in a way that avoids duplicates, and comparing them.
One nice outcome: previously we were often creating ExeContexts, which live
forever, even when they were only needed temporarily. Ie. this was a memory
leak, which has been removed.
As part of this, new headers have been created, carved off core.h and
tool.h. Lots of function names have changed, too.
In Massif, I also changed a lot of "eip" names to "ip" to make them less
x86-specific.

look like that much, but it's a good first step; there's more to come.
- vg_errcontext.c:gen_suppressions() and vg_symtab2.c:VG_(mini_stack_dump)()
had very similar stack-trace-traversing loops. I factored these out into
the higher-order function VG_(apply_ExeContext)(). I put this into
vg_execontext.c, which is the obvious spot. This is good because before
this change we had two functions, neither in vg_execontext.c, which were
crawling all over ExeContexts -- they shouldn't have to do that.
- Removed VG_(mini_stack_dump)(), which was almost identical to
VG_(pp_ExeContext)().
- Removed dead function VG_(get_EIP_from_ExeContext)().
- Replaced a call to VG_(get_ExeContext2)() with the simpler
VG_(get_ExeContext)() in vg_scheduler.c.

overhaul of the thread support. Many things are now probably broken,
but at least with --tool=none, simple and not-so-simple threaded and
non-thread programs work.

table/cache management. Two main changes. (1) Translation areas are
recorded using VexGuestExtents, so that Vex is now properly supported
and code deletion works correctly. (2) Low overhead BB profiling,
enabled by the --profile-flags=<XXXXXXXX> option. This finds the top
N bbs at exit and shows them, so as to give a basis from which to do
performane tuning.
To support this, the way tt/tc work is changed. It is still a
sectored arrangement, but now each sector has its own hash table.
This simplifies a lot of things.

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

I had to tweak the regtest filters a bit for this.

It compiles, but aborts immediately if you try to run it.
I didn't include ldt.c; I'm not sure how the LDT is used on AMD64. It can be
added later if necessary.
While doing this, did some 64-bit cleanness fixes:
- Added necessary intermediate casts to ULong to avoid warnings when converting
ThreadId to void* and vice versa, in vg_scheduler.c.
- Fixed VALGRIND_NON_SIMD_CALL[0123] to use 'long' as the return type.
- Fixed VALGRIND_PRINTF{,BACKTRACE} to use unsigned longs instead of unsigned
ints, as needed.
- Converted some offsets in vg_symtab2.h from "Int" to "OffT".
- Made strlen, strncat, etc, use SizeT instead of 'unsigned int' for the length
parameter.
- Couple of other minor things.
I had to insert some "#ifdef __amd64__" and "#ifndef __amd64__" guards in
places. In particular, in vg_mylibc.c, some of our syscall wrappers aren't
appropriate for AMD64 because the syscall numbering is a bit different in
places. This difference will have to be abstracted out somehow.
Also rewrote the sys_fcntl and sys_fcntl64 wrappers, as required for AMD64.
Also moved the ipc wrapper into x86, since it's not applicable for
AMD64. However, it is applicable (I think) for ARM, so it would be nice
to work out a way to share syscall wrappers between some, but not all,
archs. Hmm. Also now using the real IPC constants rather than magic
numbers in the wrapper.
Other non-AMD64-related fixes:
- ARM: fixed syscall table by accounting for the fact that syscall
numbers don't start at 0, but rather at 0x900000.
- Converted a few places to use ThreadId instead of 'int' or 'Int' for
thread IDs.
- Added both AMD64 and ARM (which I'd forgotten) entries to valgrind.spec.in.
- Tweaked comments in various places.

run, though. There are lots of stubs to be filled in. (The asm ones currently
just have "swi" in them, which seems to cause seg faults.)
Also, some of the macros are decided dubious, especially:
ARCH_* are bogus
SYSCALL_RET is bogus
PLATFORM_SET_SYSCALL_RESULT is bogus
not sure about SET_SYSCALL_RETVAL
FIRST_STACK_FRAME et al -- bogus?
VG_MAX_JUMPS ?
And in stage2.lds, the 0x8048000 is almost certainly wrong
This required some tweakings of the core:
- some of the vki_*.h kernel types were fixed up
- had to disable the AM_PROG_CC_C_O macro in configure.in, because automake
(autoconf?) didn't like it...
- some "#ifdef __x86__" guards were introduced, for nasty x86 things I don't
yet know how to factor out (trampoline page muck, sysinfo page muck).
- fixed a minor stupidity in vg_proxylwp.c.
- moved the ptrace wrapper into the x86-linux part
- had to change the intercept mangling scheme, to use 'J' instead of '$' as the
escape char because GCC didn't like '$'. This is all very dubious, and only
works because none of our intercepted symbols contains a 'J'. To be fixed up
ASAP.

state pointer points directly at the ThreadState.arch.vex field, thus
updating it in place and avoiding a lot of code (and time-wasting)
which copies stuff back and forth to baseBlock.
Fix zillions of other places in the system where the current thread id
is needed. It is now passed to all needed places.

- Added include/x86-linux/ and include/linux/ subdirectories, with Makefile.am
files.
- Overhauled the definitions of kernel types. include/vg_kerneliface.h is now
three files, include/linux/vki.h, include/x86-linux/vki_arch.h, and
include/x86-linux/vki_arch_posixtypes.h. These files separate the
common/Linux and x86/Linux parts cleanly. All code is copied verbatim from
the relevant kernel headers, except that VKI_/vki_ prefixes are added as
necessary to distinguish them from glibc types. (This is done consistently,
unlike previously when some types did not have the prefixes.)
All code is clearly marked to show which particular header file it came from,
and the Linux version used. (I used 2.6.8.1, the most recent stable release,
for all of them.)
A few of the types changed; this is because they changed between the older
versions of Linux and the current 2.6.8.1. I checked that all these changes
were ok with respect to backwards compatibility for our purposes.
- vg_unsafe.h has been removed; we are no longer including any kernel headers,
as we have our own copies for everything. This is because installed kernel
headers are not reliable, and often cause compilation problems. (bug
#92420 is a recent example)
- Removed some no-longer-needed header-presence tests from configure.in.
- Some code in the rest of Valgrind was changed to account for some slight
changes in the names of our VKI_/vki_ kernel constants and types.
- Updated README_MISSING_SYSCALL_OR_IOCTL accordingly.
- Fixed off-by-one error with VKI_GDT_ENTRY_TLS_MAX (merged from stable branch)
The end result is that the kernel types situation should be much clearer, and
similar files can be created relatively easily for other architectures as
necessary.

- Added include/x86/: contains tool_arch.h, Makefile.am, .cvsignore.
- Added coregrind/x86/state.c. Contains some arch-specific code for dealing
with x86 registers -- eg. setting up the baseBlock, loading/saving the whole
register state. It is compiled into coregrind/x86/libarch.a and linked via
${VG_ARCH} with the core.
Relatedly, also added coregrind/x86/{core_arch.h,core_arch_asm.h}.
- Correspondingly abstracted the register state out of ThreadState. This
affected every place that touches registers, and there are a lot of them.
(Eventually all the register touching should be abstracted out in an
arch-neutral way, but not yet; one step at a time.)
- Added some declarations about register loading/saving functions to core.h;
all architectures will have to provide these functions.
- Rejigged the build system so that the arch-specific stuff is all done via
${VG_ARCH}, rather than naming e.g. x86/ directly. Appropriate -I arguments
are used so that all the headers are found, etc.

- removed various things that are no longer used
- made (module-)local some things that were global
- improved the formatting in places
Removed about 160 lines of code, and non-trivially reduced the number
of global entities.

add a segment mapping to the segment skip-list, and then often the caller of
VG_(mmap) would do another one for the same segment, just to change the SF_*
flags. Now VG_(mmap) gets passed the appropriate SF_* flags so it can do it
directly. This results in shorter, simpler code, and less work at runtime.
Also, strengthened checking in VG_(mmap), POST(mmap), POST(mmap2) -- now if the
result is not in the right place, it aborts rather than unmapping and
continuing. This is because if it's not in the right place, something has
gone badly wrong.
