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.

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.
The majority of the merged changes were committed into
branches/PTRCHECK as the following revs: 8591 8595 8598 8599 8601 and
8161.

- Broke part of m_scheduler off into a new module m_threadstate. It
contains ThreadState, VG_(threads)[] and some basic operations on the
thread table. All simple stuff, the complex stuff stays in m_scheduler.
This avoids lots of circular dependencies between m_scheduler and other
modules.
- Managed to finally remove core.h and tool.h, double hurrah!
- Introduced pub_tool_basics.h and pub_core_basics.h, one of which is
include by every single C file.
- Lots of little cleanups and changes related to the above.
- I even did a small amount of documentation updating.

needs to #include pub_core_mallocfree.h. As a result, we need
to #include it explicitly everywhere else.

relying on any other modules -- in m_libcbase.
Also converted the 'size' parameters to functions like VG_(memcpy) and
VG_(strncpy) from Int to SizeT, as they should be.
Also removed VG_(atoll16) and VG_(toupper), which weren't being used.
Also made VG_(atoll36) less flexible -- it now only does base-36 numbers
instead of any base in the range 2..36, since base-36 is the only one we
need. As part of that, I fixed a horrible bug in it which caused it to
return incorrect answers for any number containing the digits 'A'..'I'!
(Eg. for "A; it would return 17 instead of 10!)
Had to disable the assertions in VG_(string_match), since this module can't
see vg_assert, which wasn't ideal but also isn't a disaster.

malloc/free implementation, and m_replacemalloc with the stuff for the tools
that replace malloc with their own version. Previously these two areas of
functionality were mixed up somewhat.
