* Add lock announcements in various helgrind errors that were not
announcing the locks
* ensure locks are also announced in xml (note that this is compatible
with xml protocol version 4, so no impact on GUI which properly
implement the protocol)
Changes done:
* Like other HG record_error functions, HG_(record_error_LockOrder) is
now passing Lock* rather than lock guest addresses.
* update exp files for tests that were showing locks without announcing them
* change tc14_laog_dinphils.c and tc15_laog_lockdel.c so as to
have same sizes on 32 and 64 bits systems for allocated or symbol sizes.
* factorise all code that was announcing first lock observation
* enable xml lock announcement

(note that some error messages are not announcing the lock,
which is not that nice).
At least the lock order violation message do not announce locks.
That should be improved/fixed

and stack address description.
* A race condition on an allocated block shows the stacktrace, but
does not show the thread # that allocated the block.
This patch adds the output of the thread # that allocated the block.
* The patch also fixes the confusion that might appear between
the core threadid and the helgrind thread nr in Stack address description:
A printed stack addrinfo was containing a thread id, while all other helgrind
messages are using (supposed to use) an 'helgrind thread #' which
is used in the thread announcement.
Basically, the idea is to let a tool set a "tool specific thread nr'
in an addrinfo.
The pretty printing of the addrinfo is then by preference showing this
thread nr (if it was set, i.e. different of 0).
Currently, only helgrind uses this addrinfo tnr.
Note: in xml mode, the output is matching the protocol description.
I.e., GUI should not be impacted by this change, if they properly implement
the xml protocol.
* Also, make the output produced by m_addrinfo consistent:
The message 'block was alloc'd at' is changed to be like all other
output : one character indent, and starting with an uppercase
git-svn-id: svn://svn.valgrind.org/valgrind/trunk@14175
of memcheck and helgrind in a common module:
pub_tool_addrinfo.h pub_core_addrinfo.h m_addrinfo.c
At the same time, the factorised code is made usable by other
tools also (and is used by the gdbserver command 'v.info location'
which replaces the helgrind 'describe addr' introduced 1 week ago
and which is now callable by all tools).
The new address description code can describe more addresses
(e.g. for memcheck, if the block is not on the free list anymore,
but is in an arena free list, this will also be described).
Similarly, helgrind address description can now describe more addresses
when --read-var-info=no is given (e.g. global symbols are
described, or addresses on the stack are described as
being on the stack, freed blocks in the arena free list are
described, ...).
See e.g. the change in helgrind/tests/annotate_rwlock.stderr.exp
or locked_vs_unlocked2.stderr.exp
The patch touches many files, but is basically a lot of improvements
in helgrind output files.
The code changes are mostly refactorisation of existing code.

- Helgrind GDB server monitor command 'describe <address>'
allowing to describe an address (e.g. where it was allocated).
- Helgrind GDB server monitor command 'info locks' giving
the list of locks, their location, and their status.
In a further patch, it is intended to
1. factorise the describe address code between memcheck and helgrind
2. generalise the describe address gdbsrv command so as to make
it usable for all tools.

Option -v outputs a list of used suppressions. This only gives
the nr of times a suppression was used.
For a leak search, this only gives the nr of loss records that
have been suppressed, but it does not give additional needed details
to understand more precisely what has been suppressed
(i.e. nr of blocks and nr of bytes).
=> Add in the tool interface update_extra_suppression_use and
print_extra_suppression_info functions to allow the tool to record
additioonal use statistics for a suppression. These statistics
can be done depending on the error (and its data) which is suppressed.
Use this in memcheck for the leak suppressions, to maintain and output
the nr of blocks and bytes suppressed by a suppression during
the last leak search.

If a suppression file contains an error, the lineno reported could be wrong.
Also, give filename and lineno of the used suppressions in -v debugging output.
The fix consists in ensuring that tool specific read_extra function gets
the Int* lineno pointer, together with other VG_(get_line) parameters.

lock, also report the stack where the lock was previously locked.
This makes it easier to diagnose deadlocks.

* Add new client request VALGRIND_HG_CLEAN_MEMORY_HEAPBLOCK. This is
like VALGRIND_HG_CLEAN_MEMORY but doesn't take an address range.
Instead it takes a single argument which is supposed to be a pointer
to the start of, or anywhere within, a heap allocated block.
Helgrind then finds the block and paints it as belonging to the
calling thread. This is needed for correctly describing the
behaviour of threadsafe reference counting when applied to classes
involving inheritance of release methods or involving multiple
inheritance.
* Add statistics counters for all basic VTS operations (tick, join,
cmpLEQ, cmp_structural).
* Rewrite VTS__cmp_structural to be much faster.

is inside a heap block, and if so, print the allocation point of the
heap block. It's stupid not to do this considering that the
implementation already keeps track of all mallocs and frees.

both wrapped up in XML tags (as before) but also in plain text in a
sequence of CDATA blocks. Normally only one, but in the worst case
the raw data will have ]]> in it, in which case it needs to be split
across two CDATA blocks.
This apparently simple change involved a lot of refactoring of the
suppression printing machinery:
* in the core-tool iface, change "print_extra_suppression_info" (which
prints any auxiliary info) to "get_extra_suppression_info", which
parks the text in a caller-supplied buffer. Adjust tools to match.
* VG_(apply_StackTrace): accept a void* argument, which is passed to
each invokation of the functional parameter (a poor man's closure
implementation).
* move PRINTF_CHECK into put_tool_basics.h, where it should have been
all along
* move private printf-into-an-XArray-of-character functions from
m_debuginfo into m_xarray, and make them public
* gen_suppression itself: use all the above changes. Basically we
always generate the plaintext version into an XArray. In text mode
that's just printed. In XML mode, we print the XMLery as before,
but the plaintext version is dumped into a CDATA block too.
* update the Protocol 4 specification to match all this.
This still isn't 100% right in the sense that the CDATA block data
needs to be split across multiple blocks if it should ever contain the
CDATA end mark "]]>". The Protocol 4 spec has this right even though
the implementation currently doesn't.
Fixes#191189.

* VG_(find_seginfo): incrementally rearrange the DebugInfo list, like
most of the other list-searching functions do.
* rename all VG_(*seginfo*) functions exported from m_debuginfo to
VG_(*DebugInfo*). "seginfo" was a historical name which was mostly
but not completely, done away with some time back.
git-svn-id: svn://svn.valgrind.org/valgrind/trunk@10678
* rename many functions to do with shadow memory handling, to
more clearly differentiate reads and writes directly of the
shadow state from client reads and writes, each of which
generate both a read and a write of the client state. It was
getting confusing (== hard to verify) in there.
* use idempotency of memory state machine transition rules to
speed up long sequential sections, speedups in range 0% to 28%
* remove 4-way Pord (EQ, LT, GT, UN) and associated machinery,
and replace it with something that merely computes LEQ in the
partial ordering, since that's all that is necessary, and
this simplifies some fast-case paths.
* add optional approx history mechanism a la DRD (start/end stack
of conflicting segment), much faster if you don't need exact
conflicting-access details
* libhb_so_recv: tick the VTS in the receiving thread; don't just
join with the VC in the SO. It's probably correct without this
modification, but that correctness is fragile and depends on
complex properties of how SOs are used/created. Much better to
be completely safe. (Needs cache-isation).
* get rid of unnecessary shadow memory state "SVal_NOACCESS"
and simplify associated fast-case paths in msmc{read,write}

were longer than 200 chars. Now dynamic memory is used and so they can be
arbitrarily long in theory, although in practice it bombs out at 100,000 for
sanity purposes. This required adjusting the core/tool interface for
read_extra_suppression_info().

find conflicting accesses that overlap the current access in any way,
rather than just match at the addresses. This allows reporting of
conflicts between accesses which overlap but are not the same
size/alignment.
Doesn't seem to always work reliably, for reasons I don't understand,
but I so far failed to make a small test case.

read-or-writeness of each access, so that these can be displayed in
error messages.
* Use recorded read-or-writeness info to avoid producing error
messages that claim claim two reads race against each other -- this
is clearly silly. For each pair of racing accesses now reported, at
least one of them will (should!) always now be a write, and (as
previously ensured) they will be from different threads.
* Lookups in the conflicting-access map is expensive, so don't do that
as soon as a race is detected. Instead wait until the update_extra
method is called.
