the ELF segment table into account when deciding on the mapping
between SVMA and AVMA for a section.
This also allows the BSS kludge to be dropped, as the BSS address is
now correctly determined.

that are memory offsets) with PtrdiffT; OffT should only be used for file
sizes and offsets.
Change Off64T from a ULong to a Long, as it should be. Replace some uses
of ULong in the address space manager with Off64T to match.
Also add a comment explaining the meanings of the basic types like Addr,
OffT, SizeT, etc.
Also fix the prototype for VG_(pread) -- the last arg is an OffT, not an
Int.

relatively minor extensions to m_debuginfo, a major overhaul of
m_debuginfo/readdwarf3.c to get its space usage under control, and
changes throughout the system to enable heap-use profiling.

family of syscalls is impossible to write in a way that's portable and
correct. On some targets (eg x86-linux) you need to do sys_stat64 and
receive the results in a 'struct vki_stat64'. But on other targets
(eg amd64-linux) neither sys_stat64 nor 'struct vki_stat64' exist.
This commit adds a new type, 'struct vg_stat', which contains 64 bit
fields in all the right places, and makes VG_(stat) and VG_(fstat) use
it. This means callers to the two functions no longer need to worry
about the is-it-64-bit-clean-or-not question, since these routines
reformat the received data into a'struct vg_stat'. Kind of like what
glibc must have been doing for decades.
This (indirectly) fixes a bug on x86-linux, in which m_debuginfo would
sometimes fail to read debug info, due to VG_(di_notify_mmap) using
VG_(stat) (hence sys_stat) on the file, which failed, and when in fact
it should have used sys_stat64. Bug reported and tracked down by
Marc-Oliver Straub.

support to Memcheck for tracking the origin of uninitialised values,
if you use the --track-origins=yes flag.
This currently causes some Memcheck regression tests to fail, because
they now print an extra line of advisory text in their output. This
will be fixed.
The core-tool interface is slightly changed. The version number for
the interface needs to be incremented.

DW_CFA_val_expression). Mechanism to support all of these is in place
although only DW_CFA_val_expression is currently connected up.
This is really nasty. The basic idea is to partially evaluate each
expression at the debuginfo-reading time by running it on a stack
machine in which each stack element is an expression tree. If the
expression can be 'run' successfully, the tree (dag, really) remaining
at the top of the stack is massaged and put into the DiCfSI record for
that address range. At unwind time the tree is evaluated if needed.
Such cases are in fact extremely rare and so the vast majority of
unwindings use the same mechanism as before.
As a result of all this:
* some obscure cases in glibc-2.5's libpthread.so unwind when they
didn't before
* --debug-dump=frames produces identical output to that of readelf
for libc-2.5.so and associated libpthread.so
* All the action centers around the new type CfiExpr, which is a
union expression-tree type in the same style as IRExpr et al
* Many dark corners of the CFI reader have been looked at and
(re-)validated

reading. Two sets of changes:
* New flags for debugging the readers.
--debug-dump=syms
--debug-dump=line
--debug-dump=frames
These (currently accepted but nonfunctional) are intended to
create output in the style of (that is, identical to)
/usr/bin/readelf --syms
/usr/bin/readelf --debug-dump=line
/usr/bin/readelf --debug-dump=frames
respectively. The plan is that flaws in these readers can then
be easily found by diff-ing the output against that from readelf.
Also, a new flag --trace-symtab-patt=<object filename pattern>
which is used to limit all debuginfo-related debug info to the
set of shared object names matching the given pattern. This
facilitates extracting the debuginfo details of one specific
shared object, which is usually what is required, rather than
having to wade through megabytes of junk from every object in
the process.
* Propagate the avma/svma/image address-naming scheme
(as described at the top of debuginfo.c) through large parts of
readelf.c and readdwarf.c.

Changes to support XCOFF:
- allow modules to have 'member names' as well as file names. A member
name is a "foo.o" name inside a "bar.a"; necessary as AIX
keeps all its dynamic libraries in .a files.
- rename the type RiLoc to DiLoc (this holds a line number indication).
No idea why it was called RiLoc in the first place.
- trace changes in type SysRes
- implement VG_(di_aix5_notify_segchange)

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.
