behave more like the original proposal in #245535. This makes it
more flexible and general. Also rename it.
* new name is --fullpath-after=
* allow multiple instances of --fullpath-after=
* don't require the specified strings to be prefixes, only substrings
But retain the elegant backwards-compatibility trick in Bart's r11312
commit: if --fullpath-after= is not specified at all, then behave
exactly as before.
Fixes#245535. A mixture of patches from Bart Van Assche
(bart.vanassche@gmail.com), Alexander Potapenko (glider@google.com),
and me (integration and documentation).

into multiple CDATA blocks is moot.

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.

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.

and created man pages for them. Renamed the XML files in the process for
consistency.
- Inlined cg-entities.xml into vg-entities.xml.
git-svn-id: svn://svn.valgrind.org/valgrind/trunk@10742
- Added a manpage for ms_print.
- Added docs/xml/manpages-index.xml, which is just used as a convenient
single file to hang all the man pages off so they can be generated in a
single command.
- Added facility whereby manpage generation will attempt to find the
stylesheet in multiple places. This means I don't have to constantly edit
XSL_MAN_STYLE to build manpages on my machine.
- Changed vg-docs-path to start with $INSTALL instead of /usr/, because we
can't assume that's the installation dir.
git-svn-id: svn://svn.valgrind.org/valgrind/trunk@10740
- Actually remove the dead docs/images/massif*.png files (this was meant to
happen in r10720).
- Inline $TOOL/docs/Makefile.am into $TOOL/Makefile.am for all 10 tools. 10
fewer Makefile.am files FTW!
git-svn-id: svn://svn.valgrind.org/valgrind/trunk@10721
- Remove roadmap.txt, as we haven't used it for a while and Bugzilla does it
better.
- Inline docs/{internals,images,xml,lib}/Makefile.am into docs/Makefile.am,
because they're very simple. Fewer Makefile.am files is good.
- Remove the dead docs/images/massif*.png files and all references to them.
git-svn-id: svn://svn.valgrind.org/valgrind/trunk@10720
- Match the ordering of the non-tool-specific options in the usage message
with the order in the user manual. As a result, we now always print
--alignment and --trace-malloc in the core's usage messages, which saves
malloc-replacing tools from doing it themselves (and brings it in line
with options that only apply to error-collecting tools).
- Improved the presentation of the Vex options with --help-debug.
- Removed documentation of -d in the manual because it's a debugging-only flag.
- Documented --read-var-info in the manual. This fixes bug 201169.
- Renamed --auto-run-dsymutil as --dsymutil and documented it in the usage
message.
- Fixed an XML error in manual-core-adv.xml.
git-svn-id: svn://svn.valgrind.org/valgrind/trunk@10703
- 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.

VALGRIND_{PRINTF,PRINTF_BACKTRACE,INTERNAL_PRINTF} were no longer appending
newlines. This meant that --trace-malloc=yes spewed everything onto a
single line, among other things.
Rather than adding the newline back in, I chose to offically change their
behaviour to not add the newlines, as this is more flexible (and the reason
for the underlying VG_(message) change). I updated all the relevant places
I could find.
