8ffe2fdefa Tidy up of messaging:
* For all tools and the core, don't show statistics when -v is in
  effect.  Instead, try to restrict -v to mostly user-useful
  stuff.

* A new flag --stats=no|yes [no] produces statistics output instead.

* Fix longstanding problem in that Memcheck's leak checker ran after
  the core's error manager module shut down, thereby not showing use
  counts of leak suppressions.  This fixes #186790.

* As a consequence, the leak checker text output of Memcheck has
  changed a bit -- leak check is done before the final error
  summary is done (much more logical), and the output has been
  tidied up a bit.

* Helgrind, Drd and Ptrcheck now also print "For counts of
  detected and suppressed errors, rerun with: -v", which makes
  them consistent with Memcheck in this regard.  These are
  filtered out by the regtest filter scripts.

For all tools except Memcheck, the regtests are unchanged.  On
Memcheck regtests still fail due to rearrangements of the leak
checker output.  This will be fixed by a followup commit.

6fcbcab519 Add a manpage for cg_annotate. Now only valgrind-listener and cg_merge lack
a manpage, and they're so simple I can't be bothered doing ones for them
(they don't even have sections in the manual).

Also fixed a few minor things relating to manpages.

d5b384f852 Various manual fix-ups:
- Use "heap blocks" rather than "malloc'd blocks" as heap blocks covers
  calloc, realloc, new, new[], memalign, etc.

- Used "GDB" and "GCC" throughout rather than "gcc" and "gdb".

- Made various tag uses more consistent.

- Greatly clarified the instructions on --xml=yes and its friends.

- Lots of other little improvements and fixes to out-of-date things and
  Linux-centric things, mostly in Section 2.

ac7761261a We currently use a mix of <option> and <computeroutput> tags for command
line options.  This commit changes them to all <option>.

Also make consistent how options with multiple names (eg. -h --help) are
shown.

Also, remove section describing --help and --version in Callgrind's chapter;
these aren't necessary and are presumably a hangover from when Callgrind was
a separate tool.

78b2e5c83e Started overhauling the documentation:
- There were detailed descriptions of all the tools in the Quick Start
  Guide, the Manual introduction, and the start of each tool chapter.  To
  avoid duplication/overlap, I removed these altogether from the Quick Start
  Guide, and shortened them in the intro.

- Improved the description of what errors Memcheck can find.

- Made all tool chapters start with "Overview" section, for consistency.

- Made the "run with --tool=XXX" bit consistent in each tool chapter.

- Made all tool chapter titles match the description given when running them.

- Added BBV to the User Manual intro.

- Generally clarified, updated, and future-proofed various bits of text in
  the Quick Start Guide and User Manual introduction. 

Also:
- Changed Nulgrind's start-up description to "the minimal Valgrind tool".

- Fixed some punctuation in the usage message.

3109865279 Merge in branches/DCAS.
This branch adds proper support for atomic instructions, proper in the
sense that the atomicity is preserved through the compilation
pipeline, and thus in the instrumented code.

These changes track the IR changes added by vex r1901.  They primarily
update the instrumentation functions in all tools to handle the
changes, with the exception of exp-ptrcheck, which needs some further
work in order to be able to run threaded code.

b05a2a18d7 This commit merges the BUILD_TWEAKS branch onto the trunk. It has the
following improvements:

- Arch/OS/platform-specific files are now included/excluded via the
  preprocessor, rather than via the build system.  This is more consistent
  (we use the pre-processor for small arch/OS/platform-specific chunks
  within files) and makes the build system much simpler, as the sources for
  all programs are the same on all platforms.

- Vast amounts of cut+paste Makefile.am code has been factored out.  If a
  new platform is implemented, you need to add 11 extra Makefile.am lines.
  Previously it was over 100 lines.

- Vex has been autotoolised.  Dependency checking now works in Vex (no more
  incomplete builds).  Parallel builds now also work.  --with-vex no longer
  works;  it's little use and a pain to support.  VEX/Makefile is still in
  the Vex repository and gets overwritten at configure-time;  it should
  probably be renamed Makefile-gcc to avoid possible problems, such as
  accidentally committing a generated Makefile.  There's a bunch of hacky
  copying to deal with the fact that autotools don't handle same-named files
  in different directories.  Julian plans to rename the files to avoid this
  problem.

- Various small Makefile.am things have been made more standard automake
  style, eg. the use of pkginclude/pkglib prefixes instead of rolling our
  own.

- The existing five top-level Makefile.am include files have been
  consolidated into three.

- Most Makefile.am files now are structured more clearly, with comment
  headers separating sections, declarations relating to the same things next
  to each other, better spacing and layout, etc.

- Removed the unused exp-ptrcheck/tests/x86 directory.

- Renamed some XML files.

- Factored out some duplicated dSYM handling code.

- Split auxprogs/ into auxprogs/ and mpi/, which allowed the resulting
  Makefile.am files to be much more standard.

- Cleaned up m_coredump by merging a bunch of files that had been
  overzealously separated.

The net result is 630 fewer lines of Makefile.am code, or 897 if you exclude
the added Makefile.vex.am, or 997 once the hacky file copying for Vex is
removed.  And the build system is much simpler.

07045477ca Merge the DARWIN branch onto the trunk.
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.

da695aa41a atoll() is a terrible function -- you can't do any error checking with it.
Some of our option processing code uses it.  This means that eg.
'--log-fd=9xxx' logs to fd 9, and '--log-fd=blahblahblah' logs to 0 (because
atoll() returns 0 if the string doesn't contain a number!)

It turns out that most of our option processing uses VG_(strtoll*) instead
of VG_(atoll).  The reason that not all of it does is that the
option-processing macros are underpowered -- they currently work well if you
just want to assign the value to a variable, eg:

        VG_BOOL_CLO(arg, "--heap",   clo_heap)
   else VG_BOOL_CLO(arg, "--stacks", clo_stacks)

   else VG_NUM_CLO(arg, "--heap-admin", clo_heap_admin)
   else VG_NUM_CLO(arg, "--depth",      clo_depth)

(This works because they are actually an if-statement, but it looks odd.)

VG_NUM_CLO uses VG_(stroll10).  But if you want to do any checking or
processing, you can't use those macros, leading to code like this:

      else if (VG_CLO_STREQN(9,  arg, "--log-fd=")) {
         log_to            = VgLogTo_Fd;
         VG_(clo_log_name) = NULL;
         tmp_log_fd        = (Int)VG_(atoll)(&arg[9]);
      }

So this commit:
- Improves the *_CLO_* macros so that they can be used in all circumstances.
  They're now just expressions (albeit ones with side-effects, setting the
  named variable appropriately).  Thus they can be used as if-conditions,
  and any post-checking or processing can occur in the then-statement.  And
  malformed numeric arguments (eg. --log-fd=foo) aren't accepted.  This also
  means you don't have to specify the lengths of any option strings anywhere
  (eg.  the 9 in the --log-fd example above).  The use of a wrong number
  caused at least one bug, in Massif.
- Updates all places where the macros were used.
- Updates Helgrind to use the *_CLO_* macros (it didn't use them).
- Updates Callgrind to use the *_CLO_* macros (it didn't use them), except
  for the more esoteric option names (those with numbers in the option
  name).  This allowed getUInt() and getUWord() to be removed.
- Improves the cache option parsing in Cachegrind and Callgrind -- now uses
  VG_(strtoll10)(), detects overflow, and is shorter.
- Uses INT instead of NUM in the macro names, to distinguish better vs. the
  DBL macro.
- Removes VG_(atoll*) and the few remaining uses -- they're wretched
  functions and VG_(strtoll*) should be used instead.
- Adds the VG_STREQN macro.
- Changes VG_BINT_CLO and VG_BHEX_CLO to abort if the given value is outside
  the range -- the current silent truncation is likely to cause confusion as
  much as anything.

c8d150dbaa Various build system clean-ups and simplifications:
- Created Makefile.tool-tests.am, put standard AM_CFLAGS et al for tests in
  it.
- A number of tests are shared between Helgrind and DRD.  They used to be
  built in both directories.  Now they are only built in helgrind/tests/,
  and the DRD .vgtest files just point to the executable in helgrind/tests/.
  Most of these (about 30) had the source files in helgrind/tests/;  I moved
  the three that were in drd/tests/ into helgrind/tests/ for consistency.
- Fixed rwlock_test, which was failing to run due to a wrong name in the
  .vgtest file.
- Removed remnants of unused 'hello' test for Memcheck.
- Avoided redundant flag specification in various places, esp.
  memcheck/tests/Makefile.am.
- Removed unnecessary _AIX guards in some Linux-only tests.

ed322feb84 Rename all the arch/OS/platform-related variables in configure.in to make it
clearer what they mean:
- They all have VGCONF_ prefixes now, to indicate they come out of
  configure.in (and are clearly distinguished from the VGA_/VGO_/VGP_
  #defines passed in to C files).
- The ones that refer to the primary *or* secondary platform have _INCLUDES_
  in them.
- The ones that are in all-caps have a _CAPS suffix.

So, for example, what was VGP_X86_LINUX is now
VGCONF_PLATFORMS_INCLUDE_X86_LINUX, which is more verbose but also a lot
clearer.  The names of the #defines used in the C files (VGA_x86, VGO_linux,
etc) are unchanged.

cputest.c: changed to reflect the Valgrind installation's capabilities,
rather than the machine's capabilities.  In particular, if
--enable-only32bit is used on a 64-bit machine, then this program will claim
to only support 32-bits.  Also use the VGA/VGO/VGP macros which are clearer
than the __i386__ ones.  (This is partially merged from the DARWIN branch.)

configure.in: clean up the comments, distinguish different sections more
clearly, and generally make it more readable.

valgrind.pc.in: try to make this more accurate.  I doubt anyone's using it.
It doesn't appear to be set up to handle dual-architecture builds.

cace8b55cd - No longer using VG_ARCH_ALL to determine the DIST_SUBDIRS used for
arch/OS/platform-specific tool test dirs, instead writing it by hand.
  This is important because up until now if we had any arch-specific test
  dirs, we needed such dirs for all archs.  Now that we also have
  OS-specific and platform-specific test dirs, we don't want to have
  (mostly) empty dirs for every arch/OS/platform.

- Correspondingly, removed several empty directories under memcheck/tests/
  and cachegrind/tests that are no longer needed.

- Also removed VG_ARCH_ALL from configure.in.

- Also used an arch-specific guard rather than a platform-specific one where
  appropriate in cachegrind/tests/Makefile.am.

somewhat to move less relevant material out of the way to some extent.
The main changes are:

* Update date and version info

* Mention other tools in the quick-start guide

* Document --child-silent-after-fork

* Rearrange order of sections in the Valgrind Core chapter, to move
  advanced stuff (client requests) to the end, and compact stuff
  relevant to the majority of users towards the front

* Move MPI debugging stuff from the Core manual (a nonsensical place
  for it) to the Memcheck chapter

* Update the manual's introductory chapter a bit

* Connect up new tech docs summary page, and disconnect old and
  very out of date valgrind/memcheck tech docs

* Add section tags to the Cachegrind manual, to stop xsltproc
  complaining about their absence
