Mainly focus on files that use BSD 2-Clause license, however the tool I
was using misidentified many licenses so this was mostly a manual - error
prone - task.
The Software Package Data Exchange (SPDX) group provides a specification
to make it easier for automated tools to detect and summarize well known
opensource licenses. We are gradually adopting the specification, noting
that the tags are considered only advisory and do not, in any way,
superceed or replace the license texts.
When threads were added to the kernel, the pr_pid member of the
NT_PRSTATUS note was repurposed to store LWP IDs instead of process
IDs. However, the process ID was no longer recorded in core dumps.
This change adds a pr_pid field to prpsinfo (NT_PRSINFO). Rather than
bumping the prpsinfo version number, note parsers can use the note's
payload size to determine if pr_pid is present.

number, so this wasn't used (and can't easily be added). If at some point
we want to extend thrmisc, we will probably need to just add a new note
type and ensure that the new type includes a version number.

and export them to userland.
- Define __HAVE_REG32 on platforms that define a reg32 structure and check
for this in <sys/procfs.h> to control when to export prstatus32, etc.
- Add prstatus32_t and prpsinfo32_t typedefs for the 32-bit structures.
libbfd looks for these types, and having them fixes 'gcore' in gdb of a
32-bit process on a 64-bit platform.
- Use the structure definitions from <sys/procfs.h> in gcore's elf32 core
dump code instead of duplicating the definitions.

thread specific informations.
In order to do that, and in order to avoid KBI breakage with existing
infrastructure the following semantic is implemented:
- For live programs, a new member to the PT_LWPINFO is added (pl_tdname)
- For cores, a new ELF note is added (NT_THRMISC) that can be used for
storing thread specific, miscellaneous, informations. Right now it is
just popluated with a thread name.
GDB, then, retrieves the correct informations from the corefile via the
BFD interface, as it groks the ELF notes and create appropriate
pseudo-sections.

ABI change on ILP32 platforms and relating to events. However
it's harmless on little-endian ILP32 platforms in the sense
that it doesn't cause breakages. Old ILP32 thread libraries
write a 32-bit th_p and new thread libraries write a 64-bit
th_p. But due to the fact that we have an unused 32-bit data
field right after th_p and that field is always initialized to
zero, little-endian ILP32 machines effectively have a valid
64-bit th_p by accident. Likewise for new thread libraries and
old libthread_db: little endian ILP32 is unaffected.
At this time we don't support big-endian threaded applications
in GDB, so the breakage for the ILP32 case goes unnoticed.
systems defined interfaces in thread_db.h use prgregset_t but not
prgregset_t * to be a output parameter, this is the only way to maintain
source code compatible with them.
