During armv7b testing gdb.base/store.exp test was failling with
'GDB internal error' with the following message:
Temporary breakpoint 1, wack_double (u=
../../binutils-gdb/gdb/regcache.c:177: internal-error: register_size: Assertion `regnum >= 0 && regnum < (gdbarch_num_regs (gdbarch) + gdbarch_num_pseudo_regs (gdbarch))' failed.
A problem internal to GDB has been detected,
further debugging may prove unreliable.
It turns out that compiler generated DWARF with non-existent
register numbers. The compiler issue is present in both little endian
(armv7) and big endian (armv7b) (it is separate issue). Here is
example for one of formal parameters of wack_double function:
<2><792>: Abbrev Number: 10 (DW_TAG_formal_parameter)
<793> DW_AT_name : u
<795> DW_AT_decl_file : 1
<796> DW_AT_decl_line : 115
<797> DW_AT_type : <0x57c>
<79b> DW_AT_location : 6 byte block: 6d 93 4 6c 93 4 (DW_OP_reg29 (r29); DW_OP_piece: 4; DW_OP_reg28 (r28); DW_OP_piece: 4)
In both big and little endian cases gdbarch_dwarf2_reg_to_regnum
returns -1 which is stored into gdb_regnum. But it causes severe
problem only in big endian case because in read_pieced_value and
write_pieced_value functions BFD_ENDIAN_BIG related processing
happen regardless of gdb_regnum value, for example register_size
function is called and in case of gdb_regnum=-1, it cause
'GDB internal error' and crash.
Solution is to move BFD_ENDIAN_BIG related processing under
(gdb_regnum != -1) branch of processing.

tdep->arm_breakpoint, tdep->thumb_breakpoint, tdep->thumb2_breakpoint
should be set le_ variants in case of arm BE8 code. Those instruciton
sequences are writen to target with simple write_memory, without
regarding gdbarch_byte_order_for_code. But in BE8 case even data
memory is in big endian form, instructions are still in little endian
form.
Because of this issue there are many issues while running gdb test
case in armv7b mode. For example gdb.arch/arm-disp-step.exp test fails
because it gets SIGILL when displaced instrucion sequence reaches
break instruction, which is in wrong byte order.
Solution is to set tdep->xxx_breakpoint sequences in BE8 case (i.e
when gdbarch_byte_order_for_code is BFD_ENDIAN_BIG.

extract_arm_insn function needs to read instructions in
gdbarch_byte_order_for_code byte order, because in case armv7b,

Currently function uses gdbarch_byte_order which would be
big endian in armv7b case.
Because of this issue pretty much all gdb.reverse/ tests are
failing with 'Process record does not support instruction' message.
Fix is to change gdbarch_byte_order to gdbarch_byte_order_for_code,
when passed to extract_unsigned_integer that reads instruction.

Several GDB tests change directory before compiling the test program
in order to test source file names that include directories. This
doesn't work on a remote host because default_target_compile in
DejaGnu's target.exp copies each source file with
"[remote_download host $x]" which uses "[file tail $file] to strip
off the directory of each file. If the source directory is remote
mounted on the host, this also leaves copied files in the source
directory.
A similar skip is already used in gdb.test/fullname.exp:
# We rely on being able to copy things around.
if { [is_remote host] } {
untested "setting breakpoints by full path"
return -1
}
This patch causes three GDB tests that use "cd" to be skipped for a
remote host. For gdb.base/fullpath-expand.exp this eliminates two
failures and prevents the test from leaving files fullpath-expand.c
and fullpath-expand-func.c in gdb/testsuite. For
gdb.base/realname-expand.exp it eliminates two failures. For
gdb.linespec/macro-relative.exp it prevents file macro-relative.c

In gdb/command/prompt.py:before_prompt_hook, the '\' in the new prompt

> if self.value is not '':
> newprompt = gdb.prompt.substitute_prompt(self.value)
> return newprompt.replace('\\', '\\\\')
> else:

I don't see any explanations on this in comments nor email. As doc
said, "set extended-prompt \w" substitute the current working
directory, but it prints something different from what pwd or
os.getcwdu() prints on mingw32 host.
(gdb) python print os.getcwdu()^M
\\build2-lucid-cs\yqi\yqi\arm-none-eabi

Working directory \\build2-lucid-cs\yqi\yqi\arm-none-eabi
(gdb) set extended-prompt \w
\\\\build2-lucid-cs\\yqi\\yqi\\arm-none-eabi
This makes me think whether the substitution in before_prompt_hook is
necessary or not. This patch is to remove this substitution.

regressions.

Like:
gdb/infrun.c:5406: internal-error: switch_back_to_stepped_thread: Assertion `!schedlock_applies (1)' failed.
The way the assertion is written is assuming that with schedlock=step
we'll always leave threads other than the one with the stepping range
locked, while that's not true with the "next" command. With schedlock
"step", other threads still run unlocked when "next" detects a
function call and steps over it. Whether that makes sense or not,
still, it's documented that way in the manual. If another thread hits
an event that doesn't cause a stop while the nexting thread steps over
a function call, we'll get here and fail the assertion.
The fix is just to adjust the assertion. Even though we found the
stepping thread, we'll still step-over the breakpoint that just
triggered correctly.
Surprisingly, gdb.threads/schedlock.exp doesn't have any test that
steps over a function call. This commits fixes that. This ensures
that "next" doesn't switch focus to another thread, and checks whether
other threads run locked or not, depending on scheduler locking mode
and command. There's a lot of duplication in that file that this ends
cleaning up. There's more that could be cleaned up, but that would
end up an unrelated change, best done separately.
This new coverage in schedlock.exp happens to trigger the internal
error in question, like so:
FAIL: gdb.threads/schedlock.exp: schedlock=step: cmd=next: call_function=1: next to increment (1) (GDB internal error)
FAIL: gdb.threads/schedlock.exp: schedlock=step: cmd=next: call_function=1: next to increment (3) (GDB internal error)
FAIL: gdb.threads/schedlock.exp: schedlock=step: cmd=next: call_function=1: next to increment (5) (GDB internal error)
FAIL: gdb.threads/schedlock.exp: schedlock=step: cmd=next: call_function=1: next to increment (7) (GDB internal error)
FAIL: gdb.threads/schedlock.exp: schedlock=step: cmd=next: call_function=1: next to increment (9) (GDB internal error)
FAIL: gdb.threads/schedlock.exp: schedlock=step: cmd=next: call_function=1: next does not change thread (switched to thread 0)
FAIL: gdb.threads/schedlock.exp: schedlock=step: cmd=next: call_function=1: current thread advanced - unlocked (wrong amount)
That's because we have more than one thread running the same loop, and
while one thread is stepping over a function call, the other thread
hits the step-resume breakpoint of the first, which needs to be
stepped over, and we end up in switch_back_to_stepped_thread exactly
in the problem case.
I think a simpler and more directed test is also useful, to not rely
on internal breakpoint magics. So this commit also adds a test that
has a thread trip on a conditional breakpoint that doesn't cause a
user-visible stop while another thread is stepping over a call. That
currently fails like this:
FAIL: gdb.threads/next-bp-other-thread.exp: schedlock=step: next over function call (GDB internal error)

locked, while that's not true with the "next" command. With schedlock
"step", other threads still run unlocked when "next" detects a
function call and steps over it. Whether that makes sense or not,
still, it's documented that way in the manual. If another thread hits
an event that doesn't cause a stop while the nexting thread steps over
a function call, we'll get here and fail the assertion.
The fix is just to adjust the assertion. Even though we found the
stepping thread, we'll still step-over the breakpoint that just
triggered correctly.
Surprisingly, gdb.threads/schedlock.exp doesn't have any test that
steps over a function call. This commits fixes that. This ensures
that "next" doesn't switch focus to another thread, and checks whether
other threads run locked or not, depending on scheduler locking mode
and command. There's a lot of duplication in that file that this ends
cleaning up. There's more that could be cleaned up, but that would
end up an unrelated change, best done separately.
This new coverage in schedlock.exp happens to trigger the internal
error in question, like so:
FAIL: gdb.threads/schedlock.exp: schedlock=step: cmd=next: call_function=1: next to increment (1) (GDB internal error)
FAIL: gdb.threads/schedlock.exp: schedlock=step: cmd=next: call_function=1: next to increment (3) (GDB internal error)
FAIL: gdb.threads/schedlock.exp: schedlock=step: cmd=next: call_function=1: next to increment (5) (GDB internal error)
FAIL: gdb.threads/schedlock.exp: schedlock=step: cmd=next: call_function=1: next to increment (7) (GDB internal error)
FAIL: gdb.threads/schedlock.exp: schedlock=step: cmd=next: call_function=1: next to increment (9) (GDB internal error)
FAIL: gdb.threads/schedlock.exp: schedlock=step: cmd=next: call_function=1: next does not change thread (switched to thread 0)
FAIL: gdb.threads/schedlock.exp: schedlock=step: cmd=next: call_function=1: current thread advanced - unlocked (wrong amount)
That's because we have more than one thread running the same loop, and
while one thread is stepping over a function call, the other thread
hits the step-resume breakpoint of the first, which needs to be
stepped over, and we end up in switch_back_to_stepped_thread exactly
in the problem case.
I think a simpler and more directed test is also useful, to not rely
on internal breakpoint magics. So this commit also adds a test that
has a thread trip on a conditional breakpoint that doesn't cause a
user-visible stop while another thread is stepping over a call. That
currently fails like this:
FAIL: gdb.threads/next-bp-other-thread.exp: schedlock=step: next over function call (GDB internal error)

PR17372 is a regression in 7.8 caused by the fix for PR17072:

Date: Mon Jul 14 19:55:32 2014 +0100
Background execution + pagination aborts readline/gdb
gdb_readline_wrapper_line removes the handler after a line is
processed. Usually, we'll end up re-displaying the prompt, and that
reinstalls the handler. But if the output is coming out of handling
a stop event, we don't re-display the prompt, and nothing restores the
handler. So the next input wakes up the event loop and calls into
readline, which aborts.

* top.c (gdb_readline_wrapper_line): Tweak comment.
(gdb_readline_wrapper_cleanup): If readline is enabled, reinstall
the input handler callback.
The problem is that installing the input handler callback also preps
the terminal, putting it in raw mode and with echo disabled, which is
bad if we're going to call a command that assumes cooked/canonical
mode, and echo enabled, like in the case of the PR, Python's
interactive shell. Another example I came up with that doesn't depend
on Python is starting a subshell with "(gdb) shell /bin/sh" from a
multi-line command. Tests covering both these examples are added.
The fix is to revert the original fix for PR gdb/17072, and instead
restore the callback handler after processing an asynchronous target
event.
Furthermore, calling rl_callback_handler_install when we already have
some input in readline's line buffer discards that input, which is
obviously a bad thing to do while the user is typing. No specific
test is added for that, because I first tried calling it even if the
callback handler was still installed and that resulted in hundreds of
failures in the testsuite.

In gdb.base/fileio.c, some functions may depend on others. For
example, test_rename renames a file to one directory which is created
in test_system. That is means, if test_system fails, test_rename
fails too, which is not a good practise, IMO.
In test_system, system ("mkdir -p XX") is used to create directories
needed for test_rename. In this patch, we use dejagnu remote_exec
proc to create these directories on host.
In my gdb testing, mingw32 host and arm-none-eabi target, system
("mkdir -p XX") doesn't work properly (this issue can be addressed

4 XX : String (1 .. Blocks.Sz) := (others => 'X'); -- STOP
5 K : Integer;
6 begin
7 K := 13;
The code generated on ARM (-march=armv7-m) starts like this:
(gdb) disass str'address
Dump of assembler code for function _ada_str:
--# Line str.adb:3
0x08000014 <+0>: push {r4, r7, lr}

[...]
When computing the address related to str.adb:4, GDB correctly
resolves it to 0x0800001e first, but then considers the next
3 instructions as being part of the prologue because it thinks
they are part of stack-protector code. As a result, instead
of inserting the breakpoint at line 4, it skips those instruction
and consequently the rest of the instructions until the start
of the next line, which his line 7.
The stack-protector code is expected to start like this...
ldr Rn, .Label
....
.Lable:
.word __stack_chk_guard
... but the implementation actually accepts a sequence where
the ldr location points to an address for which there is no symbol.
It only aborts if the address points to a symbol which is not
__stack_chk_guard.
Since the __stack_chk_guard symbol is always expected to exist
when used (it lives in .dynsym), this patch fixes the issue by
requiring that the ldr gets the address of the __stack_chk_guard
symbol. If the address could not be resolved, then it rejects
the sequence as being stack-protector code.
gdb/ChangeLog:
* arm-tdep.c (arm_skip_stack_protector): Return early if
address loaded by first "ldr" instruction does not have
a corresponding minimal symbol. Update comment.
Tested on arm-eabi using AdaCore's testsuite.
