they need to install, in at least some cases.

There were some easy-to-resolve conflicts.
Then I had to fix up coregrind/link_tool_exe*.in -- those files had been
added independently on both the trunk and the branch, AFAICT. I just
overwrote the trunk versions with the branch versions.

type STT_GNU_IFUNC which, instead of pointing directly at the
function, point at a routine which will return the address of
the real function. Redirection of indirect functions is handled
by valgrind as follows:
- When a redirection specification matches an indirect
function symbol an active redirection is added in the
normal way, but with the isIFunc flag set.
- When a call is made to an address which matches an
active redirection with the isIFunc flag set the call
is redirected, but not to the target address of the
redirection - instead it is sent to a small wrapper
routine that is preloaded into the client.
- The wrapper routine calls the original client routine
and collects the result, which it reports to valgrind
using a client request, and then returns the result to
the caller.
- When valgrind gets the client request it looks up the
active redirection for the indirect function and then
adds a new active redirection which redirects from the
address returned by the indirection function to the
redirection target. This new redirection does not have
the isIFunc flag set so behaves as a normal redirection.
In addition to the above we also add a few new redirections to
memcheck to capture internal calls made by glibc to things like
strlen, as these internal calls do not go through the indirect
function and instead go direct to the chosen implementation.
Based on a patch from Dodji Seketeli and comments from Jakub
Jelinek, this commit closes bug 206013.

with #190429.
This patch (originally from Jakub Jelinek) makes the redir of strlen
in ld.so on amd64-linux ld.so mandatory, but only for glibc 2.10 and
above. For glibc-2.2 (our earliest supported version) to glibc-2.9
it is still optional.
Also, makes more verbose, the message that is printed if a mandatory
ld.so redirection on Linux cannot be set up.
Is believed to fix#190429.

* 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.

This commit tidies up and rationalises what could be called the
"messaging" system -- that part of V to do with presenting output to
the user. In particular it brings significant improvements to XML
output.
Changes are:
* XML and normal text output now have separate file descriptors,
which solves longstanding problems for XML consumers caused by
the XML output getting polluted by unexpected non-XML output.
* This also means that we no longer have to hardwire all manner
of output settings (verbosity, etc) when XML is requested.
* The XML output format has been revised, cleaned up, and made
more suitable for use by error detecting tools in general
(various Memcheck-specific features have been removed). XML
output is enabled for Ptrcheck and Helgrind, and Memcheck is
updated to the new format.
* One side effect is that the behaviour of VG_(message) has been
made to be consistent with printf: it no longer automatically
adds a newline at the end of the output. This means multiple
calls to it can be used to build up a single line message; or a
single call can write a multi-line message. The ==pid==
preamble is automatically inserted at each newline.
* VG_(message)(Vg_UserMsg, ..args..) now has the abbreviated form
VG_(UMSG)(..args..); ditto VG_(DMSG) for Vg_DebugMsg and
VG_(EMSG) for Vg_DebugExtraMsg. A couple of other useful
printf derivatives have been added to pub_tool_libcprint.h,
most particularly VG_(vcbprintf).
* There's a small change in the core-tool interface to do with
error handling: VG_(needs_tool_errors) has a new method
void (*before_pp_Error)(Error* err) which, if non-NULL, is
called just before void (*pp_Error)(Error* err). This is to
give tools the chance to look at errors before any part of them
is printed, so they can print any XML preamble they like.
* coregrind/m_errormgr.c has been overhauled and cleaned up, and
is a bit simpler and more commented. In particular pp_Error
and VG_(maybe_record_error) are significantly changed.
The diff is huge, but mostly very boring. Most of the changes
are of the form
- VG_(message)(Vg_UserMsg, "this is a message %d", n);
+ VG_(message)(Vg_UserMsg, "this is a message %d\n", n);
Unfortunately as a result of this, it touches a large number
of source files.

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.

matching, in the function VG_(generic_match). Patterns to be matched
against may contain only '*'-style wildcards (matches any number of
elements, we don't care what they are), '?' wildcards (matches exactly
one element, we don't care what it is) and literal elements.
It is totally abstractified, in the sense that the pattern and input
arrays may be arrays of anything. The caller provides enough
information so that VG_(generic_match) can step along both arrays, and
can ask the questions "is this pattern element a '*' ?", "is this
pattern element a '?' ?", and "does this pattern element match an
input element ?".
The existing function VG_(string_match) is reimplemented using
VG_(generic_match), although the ability to escape metacharacters in
the pattern string is removed -- I don't think it was ever used.
In m_errormgr, matching of suppression stacks (including wildcard
"..." lines) against error stacks is re-implemented using
VG_(generic_match).
Further detailed comments are in m_seqmatch.h and pub_tool_seqmatch.h.
A negative side effect is that VG_(string_match) will be much slower
than before, due to the abstractification. It may be necessary to
reimplement a specialised version later.

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.

says (essentially) "I am the replacement for function foo in object w/
soname bar.so". Now, if a redirection is mandatory, and bar.so is
loaded but foo is not found in its symbol table, then V aborts.
The initial motivation for this is making Memcheck work sanely on
glibc-2.6.X ppc32-linux. We really need to intercept 'strlen' in
ld.so right from startup. If ld.so does not have a visible 'strlen'
symbol, Memcheck generates an impossible number of errors resulting
from highly tuned strlen implementation in ld.so, and is completely
unusable -- the resulting undefinedness eventually seeps everywhere.

Minor changes for redirection on AIX. The only significant change is
that it now checks for, warns about and disallows, attempts to
redirect to, or wrap with, a function for which no TOC pointer can be
found, since that would be really asking for trouble (a segfault).

caused hardwired Actives to be discarded at the first call to
VG_(redir_notify_delete_SegInfo). This causes crashes on amd64-linux
by throwing away the hardwired redirections

0xFFFFFFFFFF600400 -> VG_(amd64_linux_REDIR_FOR_vtime)
which I'm sure got mentioned at some point recently, but I cannot find
the email now.
Bug does not affect 3.1.X, since that line contains the old m_redir.c
implementation.
Bug does not affect any platform other than amd64-linux since no
others have hardwired Actives at the start.
