This finally makes background execution commands possible by default.
However, in order to do that, there's one last thing we need to do --
we need to separate the MI and target notions of "async". Unlike the
CLI, where the user explicitly requests foreground vs background
execution in the execution command itself (c vs c&), MI chose to treat
"set target-async" specially -- setting it changes the default
behavior of execution commands.
So, we can't simply "set target-async" default to on, as that would
affect MI frontends. Instead we have to make the setting MI-specific,
and teach MI about sync commands on top of an async target.
Because the "target" word in "set target-async" ends up as a potential
source of confusion, the patch adds a "set mi-async" option, and makes
"set target-async" a deprecated alias.
Rather than make the targets always async, this patch introduces a new
"maint set target-async" option so that the GDB developer can control
whether the target is async. This makes it simpler to debug issues
arising only in the synchronous mode; important because sync mode
seems unlikely to go away.
Unlike in previous revisions, "set target-async" does not affect this
new maint parameter. The rationale for this is that then one can
easily run the test suite in the "maint set target-async off" mode and
have tests that enable mi-async fail just like they fail on
non-async-capable targets. This emulation is exactly the point of the
maint option.
I had asked Tom in a previous iteration to split the actual change of
the target async default to a separate patch, but it turns out that
that is quite awkward in this version of the patch, because with MI
async and target async decoupled (unlike in previous versions), if we
don't flip the default at the same time, then just "set target-async
on" alone never actually manages to do anything. It's best to not
have that transitory state in the tree.
Given "set target-async on" now only has effect for MI, the patch goes
through the testsuite removing it from non-MI tests. MI tests are
adjusted to use the new and less confusing "mi-async" spelling.

I noticed that "list" behaves differently in CLI vs MI. Particularly:

Here the list starts at line 62, where the program was stopped.
This happens because print_stack_frame, called from both normal_stop
and mi_on_normal_stop, is the function responsible for setting the
current sal from the selected frame, overrides the PRINT_WHAT
argument, and only after that does it decide whether to center the
current sal line or not, based on the overridden value, and it will
always decide false.
(The print_stack_frame call in mi_on_normal_stop is a little different
from the call in normal_stop, in that it is an unconditional
SRC_AND_LOC call. A future patch will make those uniform.)
A previous version of this patch made MI uniform with CLI here, by
making print_stack_frame also center when MI is active. That changed
the output of a "list" command in mi-cli.exp, to expect line 57
instead of 62, as per the example above.
However, looking deeper, that list in question is the first "list"
after the program stops, and right after the stop, before the "list",
the test did "set listsize 1". Let's try the same thing with the CLI:
(gdb) start
62 callee1 (2, "A string argument.", 3.5);
(gdb) set listsize 1
(gdb) list
57 {
Huh, that's unexpected. Why the 57? It's because print_stack_frame,
called in reaction to the breakpoint stop, expecting the next "list"
to show 10 lines (the listsize at the time) around line 62, sets the
lines listed range to 57-67 (62 +/- 5). If the user changes the
listsize before "list", why would we still show that range? Looks
bogus to me.
So the fix for this whole issue should be delay trying to center the
listing to until actually listing, so that the correct listsize can be
taken into account. This makes MI and CLI uniform too, as it deletes
the center code from print_stack_frame.
A series of tests are added to list.exp to cover this. mi-cli.exp was
after all correct all along, but it now gains an additional test that
lists lines with listsize 10, to ensure the centering is consistent
with CLI's.
One related Python test changed related output -- it's a test that
prints the line number after stopping for a breakpoint, similar to the
new list.exp tests. Previously we'd print the stop line minus 5 (due
to the premature centering), now we print the stop line. I think
that's a good change.
Tested on x86_64 Fedora 20.

Sometimes it's useful to be able to disable the automatic connection
to the native target. E.g., sometimes GDB disconnects from the
extended-remote target I was debugging, without me noticing it, and
then I do "run". That starts the program locally, and only after a
little head scratch session do I figure out the program is running
locally instead of remotely as intended. Same thing with "attach",
"info os", etc.
With the patch, we now can have this instead:
(gdb) set auto-connect-native-target off
(gdb) target extended-remote :9999
...
*gdb disconnects*
(gdb) run
Don't know how to run. Try "help target".
To still be able to connect to the native target with
auto-connect-native-target set to off, I've made "target native" work
instead of erroring out as today.
Before:
(gdb) target native
Use the "run" command to start a native process.
After:
(gdb) target native
Done. Use the "run" command to start a process.
(gdb) maint print target-stack

- native (Native process)
- exec (Local exec file)
- None (None)

I've also wanted this for the testsuite, when running against the
native-extended-gdbserver.exp board (runs against gdbserver in
extended-remote mode). With a non-native-target board, it's always a
bug to launch a program with the native target. Turns out we still
have one such case this patch catches:
(gdb) break main
Breakpoint 1 at 0x4009e5: file ../../../src/gdb/testsuite/gdb.base/coremaker.c, line 138.
(gdb) run
Don't know how to run. Try "help target".
(gdb) FAIL: gdb.base/corefile.exp: run: with core
On the patch itself, probably the least obvious bit is the need to go
through all targets, and move the unpush_target call to after the
generic_mourn_inferior call instead of before. This is what
inf-ptrace.c does too, ever since multi-process support was added.
The reason inf-ptrace.c does things in that order is that in the
current multi-process/single-target model, we shouldn't unpush the
target if there are still other live inferiors being debugged. The
check for that is "have_inferiors ()" (a misnomer nowadays...), which
does:
have_inferiors (void)
{
for (inf = inferior_list; inf; inf = inf->next)
if (inf->pid != 0)
return 1;
It's generic_mourn_inferior that ends up clearing inf->pid, so we need
to call it before the have_inferiors check. To make all native
targets behave the same WRT to explicit "target native", I've added an
inf_child_maybe_unpush_target function that targets call instead of
calling unpush_target directly, and as that includes the
have_inferiors check, I needed to adjust the targets.
Tested on x86_64 Fedora 20, native, and also with the
extended-gdbserver board.
Confirmed a cross build of djgpp gdb still builds.
Smoke tested a cross build of Windows gdb under Wine.
Untested otherwise.

I had been pondering renaming "target child" to something else.
"child" is a little lie in case of "attach", and not exactly very
clear to users, IMO. By best suggestion is "target native". If I
were to explain what "target child" is, I'd just start out with "it's
the native target" anyway. I was worrying a little that "native"
might be a lie too if some port comes up with a default target that
can run but is not really native, but I think that's a very minor
issue - we can consider that "native" really means the default built
in target that GDB supports, instead of saying that's the target that
debugs host native processes, if it turns out necessary.
This change doesn't affect users much, because "target child" results
in error today:
(gdb) target child
Use the "run" command to start a child process.
Other places "child" is visible:
(gdb) help target
...

The dcache (code/stack cache) is supposed to be transparent, but it's
actually not in one case. dcache tries to read chunks (cache lines)
at a time off of the target. This may end up trying to read
unaccessible or unavailable memory. Currently the caller gets an xfer
error in this case. But if the specific bits of memory the caller
actually wanted are available and accessible, then the caller should

This does two things:
1. Adds a test.
Recently compare-sections got a new "-r" switch, but given no test
existed for compare-sections, the patch was allowed in with no
testsuite addition. This now adds a test for both compare-sections
and compare-sections -r.
2. Makes the compare-sections command work against all targets.
Currently, compare-sections only works with remote targets, and only
those that support the qCRC packet. The patch makes it so that if the
target doesn't support accelerating memory verification, then GDB
falls back to comparing memory itself. This is of course slower, but
it's better than nothing, IMO. While testing against extended-remote
GDBserver I noticed that we send the qCRC request to the target if
we're connected, but not yet running a program. That can't work of
course -- the patch fixes that. This all also goes in the direction
of bridging the local/remote parity gap.
I didn't decouple 1. from 2., because that would mean that the test
would need to handle the case of the target not supporting the
command.
Tested on x86_64 Fedora 17, native, remote GDBserver, and
extended-remote GDBserver. I also hack-disabled qCRC support to make
sure the fallback paths in remote.c work.

always-inserted off" mode, not really caused it. After that patch,
GDB no longer removes breakpoints at each internal event, thus making
some scenarios behave like breakpoint always-inserted on. The bug is
easy to trigger with always-inserted on.
The issue is that since the target-side breakpoint conditions support,
if the stub/server supports evaluating breakpoint conditions on the
target side, then GDB is sending duplicate Zx packets to the target
without removing them before, and GDBserver is not really expecting
that for Z packets other than Z0/z0. E.g., with "set breakpoint
always-inserted on" and "set debug remote 1":
(gdb) b main

So GDB sent a bunch of Z1 packets, and then when finally removing the
breakpoint, only one z1 packet was sent. On the GDBserver side (with
monitor set debug-hw-points 1), in the Z1 case, we see:

That's one insert_watchpoint call for each Z1 packet, and then one
remove_watchpoint call for the z1 packet. Notice how ref.count
increased for each insert_watchpoint call, and then in the end, after
GDB told GDBserver to forget about the hardware breakpoint, GDBserver
ends with the the first debug register still with ref.count=4! IOW,
the hardware breakpoint is left armed on the target, while on the GDB
end it's gone. If the program happens to execute 0x410943 afterwards,
then the CPU traps, GDBserver reports the trap to GDB, and GDB not
having a breakpoint set at that address anymore, reports to the user a
spurious SIGTRAP.
This is exactly what is happening in the hbreak2.exp test, though in
that case, it's a shared library event that triggers a
breakpoint_re_set, when breakpoints are still inserted (because
nowadays GDB doesn't remove breakpoints while handling internal
events), and that recreates breakpoint locations, which likewise
forces breakpoint reinsertion and Zx packet resends...
That is a lot of bogus Zx duplication that should possibly be
addressed on the GDB side. GDB resends Zx packets because the way to
change the target-side condition, is to resend the breakpoint to the
server with the new condition. (That's an option in the packet: e.g.,
"Z1,410943,1;X3,220027" for "hbreak main if 0". The packets in the
examples above are shorter because the breakpoints don't have
conditions attached). GDB doesn't remove the breakpoint first before
reinserting it because that'd be bad for non-stop, as it'd open a
window where the inferior could miss the breakpoint. The conditions
actually haven't changed between the resends, but GDB isn't smart
enough to realize that.
(TBC, if the target doesn't support target-side conditions, then GDB
doesn't trigger these resends (init_bp_location calls
mark_breakpoint_location_modified, and that does nothing if condition
evaluation is on the host side. The resends are caused by the
'loc->condition_changed = condition_modified.' line.)
But, even if GDB was made smarter, GDBserver should really still
handle the resends anyway. So target-side conditions also aren't
really to blame. The documentation of the Z/z packets says:
"To avoid potential problems with duplicate packets, the operations
should be implemented in an idempotent way."
As such, we may want to fix GDB, but we should definitely fix
GDBserver. The fix is a prerequisite for target-side conditions on
hardware breakpoints anyway (and while at it, on watchpoints too).
GDBserver indeed already treats duplicate Z0 packets in an idempotent
way. mem-break.c has the concept of high-level and low-level
breakpoints, somewhat similar to GDB's split of breakpoints vs
breakpoint locations, and keeps track of multiple breakpoints
referencing the same address/location, for the case of an internal
GDBserver breakpoint or a tracepoint being set at the same address as
a GDB breakpoint. But, it only allows GDB to ever contribute one
reference to a software breakpoint location. IOW, if gdbserver sees a
Z0 packet for the same address where it already had a GDB breakpoint
set, then GDBserver won't create another high-level GDB breakpoint.
However, mem-break.c only tracks GDB Z0 breakpoints. The same logic
should apply to all kinds of Zx packets. Currently, gdbserver passes
down each duplicate Zx (other than Z0) request directly to the
target->insert_point routine. The x86 watchpoint support itself
refcounts watchpoint / hw breakpoint requests, to handle overlapping
watchpoints, and save debug registers. But that code doesn't (and
really shouldn't) handle the duplicate requests, assuming that for
each insert there will be a corresponding remove.
So the fix is to generalize mem-break.c to track all kinds of Zx
breakpoints, and filter out duplicates. As mentioned, this ends up
adding support for target-side conditions on hardware breakpoints and
watchpoints too (though GDB itself doesn't support the latter yet).
Probably the least obvious change in the patch is that it kind of
turns the breakpoint insert/remove APIs inside out. Before, the
target methods were only called for GDB breakpoints. The internal
breakpoint set/delete methods inserted memory breakpoints directly
bypassing the insert/remove target methods. That's not good when the
target should use a debug API to set software breakpoints, instead of
relying on GDBserver patching memory with breakpoint instructions, as
is the case of NTO.
Now removal/insertion of all kinds of breakpoints/watchpoints, either
internal, or from GDB, always go through the target methods. The
insert_point/remove_point methods no longer get passed a Z packet
type, but an internal/raw breakpoint type. They're also passed a
pointer to the raw breakpoint itself (note that's still opaque outside
mem-break.c), so that insert_memory_breakpoint /
remove_memory_breakpoint have access to the breakpoint's shadow
buffer. I first tried passing down a new structure based on GDB's
"struct bp_target_info" (actually with that name exactly), but then
decided against it as unnecessary complication.
As software/memory breakpoints work by poking at memory, when setting
a GDB Z0 breakpoint (but not internal breakpoints, as those can assume
the conditions are already right), we need to tell the target to
prepare to access memory (which on Linux means stop threads). If that
operation fails, we need to return error to GDB. Seeing an error, if
this is the first breakpoint of that type that GDB tries to insert,
GDB would then assume the breakpoint type is supported, but it may
actually not be. So we need to check whether the type is supported at
all before preparing to access memory. And to solve that, the patch
adds a new target->supports_z_point_type method that is called before
actually trying to insert the breakpoint.
Other than that, hopefully the change is more or less obvious.
New test added that exercises the hbreak2.exp regression in a more
direct way, without relying on a breakpoint re-set happening before
main is reached.

* gdb.base/break-idempotent.c: New file.
* gdb.base/break-idempotent.exp: New file.
For several RSP packets, there's a corresponding "set remote
foo-packet on/off/auto" command that one can use do bypass
auto-detection of support for the packet or feature. However, I
noticed that setting several of these commands to 'on' or 'off'
doesn't actually have any effect. These are, at least:
set remote breakpoint-commands-packet
set remote conditional-breakpoints-packet
set remote fast-tracepoints-packet
set remote static-tracepoints-packet
set remote install-in-trace-packet
These are commands that control a remote protocol feature that doesn't
have a corresponding regular packet, and because of that we cache the
knowledge of the remote side support as returned by the qSupported
packet in the remote_state object.
E.g., in the case of the 'set remote breakpoint-commands-packet'
command, whether the feature is supported is recorded in the
'breakpoint_commands' field of the remote_state object.
Whether to bypass packet support auto-detection or not is controlled
by the 'detect' field of the corresponding packet's packet_config
structure. That field is the variable associated directly with the
"set remote foo-packet" command. Actual remote stub support for the
packet (or feature) is recorded in the 'support' field of the same
structure.
However, when the user toggles the command, the 'support' field is
also correspondingly updated to PACKET_ENABLE/DISABLE/SUPPORT_UNKNOWN,
discarding the knowledge of whether the target actually supports the
feature. If one toggles back to 'auto', it's no big issue for real
packets, as they'll just end up re-probed the next time they might be
necessary. But features whose support is only reported through
qSupported don't get their corresponding (manually added/maintained)
fields in remote_state objected updated. As we lost the actual status
of the target support for the feature, GDB would need to probe the
qSupported features again, which GDB doesn't do.
But we can avoid that extra traffic, and clean things up, IMO.
Instead of going in that direction, this patch completely decouples
struct packet_config's 'detect' and 'support' fields. E.g., when the
user does "set remote foo-packet off", instead of setting the packet
config's 'support' field to PACKET_DISABLE, the 'support' field is not
touched at all anymore. That is, we end up respecting this simple
table:
| packet_config->detect | packet_config->support | should use packet/feature? |
|-----------------------+------------------------+----------------------------|
| auto | PACKET_ENABLE | PACKET_ENABLE |
| auto | PACKET_DISABLE | PACKET_DISABLE |
| auto | PACKET_UNKNOWN | PACKET_UNKNOWN |
| yes | don't care | PACKET_ENABLE |
| no | don't care | PACKET_DISABLE |
This is implemented by the new packet_support function. With that, we
need to update this pattern throughout:
if (remote_protocol_packets[PACKET_foo].support == PACKET_DISABLE)
to do this instead:
if (packet_support (PACKET_qAttached) == PACKET_DISABLE)
where as mentioned, the packet_support function takes struct
packet_config's 'detect' field into account, like in the table above.
As when the packet is force-disabled or force-enabled, the 'support'
field is just ignored, if the command is set back to auto, we'll
resume respecting whatever the target said it supports. IOW, the end
result is that the 'support' field always represents whether the
target actually supports the packet or not.
After all that, the manually maintained breakpoint_commands and
equivalent fields of struct remote_state can then be eliminated, with
references replaced by checking the result of calling the
packet_support function on the corresponding packet or feature. This
required adding new PACKET_foo enum values for several features that
didn't have it yet. (The patch does not add corresponding "set remote
foo-packet" style commands though, focusing only on bug fixing and
laying the groundwork).
Tested on x86_64 Fedora 17, native GDBserver. The new tests all fail
without this patch.

(gdb) FAIL: gdb.base/break-unload-file.exp: always-inserted on: break: continue
(This is a regression caused by the remove-symbol-file command
series.)
break-unload-file.exp is about having breakpoints inserted, and then
doing "file". I caught this while writing a test that does "file
PROGRAM", while PROGRAM was already loaded, which internally does
"file" first, because I wanted to force a breakpoint_re_set, but the
test is more explicit in case GDB ever optimizes out that re-set.
The problem is that unloading the file with "file" ends up in
disable_breakpoints_in_freed_objfile, which marks all breakpoint
locations of the objfile as both shlib_disabled, _and_ clears the
inserted flag, without actually removing the breakpoints from the
inferior. Now, usually, in all-stop, breakpoints will already be
removed from the inferior before the user can issue the "file"
command, but, with non-stop, or breakpoints always-inserted on mode,
breakpoints stay inserted even while the user has the prompt. In the
latter case, then, if we let the program continue, and it executes the
address where we had previously set the breakpoint, it'll actually
execute the breakpoint instruction that we left behind...
Now, one issue is that the intent of
disable_breakpoints_in_freed_objfile is really to handle the unloading
of OBJF_USERLOADED objfiles. These are objfiles that were added with
add-symbol-file and that are removed with remove-symbol-file.
"add-symbol-file"'s docs in the manual clearly say these commands are
used to let GDB know about dynamically loaded code:
You would use this command when @var{filename} has been dynamically
loaded (by some other means) into the program that is running.
Similarly, the online help says:
(gdb) help add-symbol-file
Load symbols from FILE, assuming FILE has been dynamically loaded.
So it makes sense to, like when shared libraries are unloaded through
the generic solib machinery, mark the breakpoint locations as
shlib_disabled. But, the "file" command is not about dynamically
loaded code, it's about the main program. So the patch makes
disable_breakpoints_in_freed_objfile skip all objfiles but
OBJF_USERLOADED ones, thus skipping the main objfile.
Then, the reason that disable_breakpoints_in_freed_objfile was
clearing the inserted flag isn't clear, but likely to avoid breakpoint
removal errors, assuming remove-symbol-file was called after the
dynamic object was already unmapped from the inferior. In that case,
it'd okay to simply clear the inserted flag, but not so if the user
for example does remove-symbol-file to remove the library because he
made a mistake in the library's address, and wants to re-do
add-symbol-file with the correct address.
To address all that, I propose an alternative implementation, that
handles both cases. The patch includes changes to sym-file.exp to
cover them.
This implementation leaves the inserted flag alone, and handles
breakpoint insertion/removal failure gracefully when the locations are
in OBJF_USERLOADED objfiles, just like we handle insertion/removal
failure gracefully for locations in shared libraries.
To try to make sure we aren't patching back stale shadow memory
contents into the inferior, in case the program mapped a different
library at the same address where we had the breakpoint, without the
user having had a chance of remove-symbol-file'ing before, this adds a
new memory_validate_breakpoint function that checks if the breakpoint
instruction is still in memory. ppc_linux_memory_remove_breakpoint
does this unconditionally for all memory breakpoints, and questions
whether memory_remove_breakpoint should be changed to do this for all
breakpoints. Possibly yes, though I'm not certain, hence this
baby-steps patch.

As explained in
https://sourceware.org/ml/gdb-patches/2008-08/msg00361.html, after a
shared library was unloaded, we can no longer insert or remove
breakpoints into/from its (no longer present) code segment. That'll
fail with memory errors. However, that concern does not apply to
hardware breakpoints. By definition, hardware breakpoints are
implemented using a mechanism that is not dependent on being able to
modify the target's memory. Usually, by setting up CPU debug
registers. IOW, we should be able to set hw breakpoints in an
unmapped address. We don't seem to have a test that exercises that,
so this patch adds one.
I noticed the error supression because of a related issue -- the
target_insert_hw_breakpoint/target_remove_hw_breakpoint interfaces
don't really distinguish "not supported" from "error" return, and so
remote.c returns -1 in both cases. This results in hardware
breakpoints set in shared libraries silently ending up pending forever
even though the target doesn't actually support hw breakpoints.

(HW breakpoints set in the main executable, when the target doesn't
support HW breakpoints always resulted in the latter output.)
We probably should improve the insert/remove interface to return a
different error code for unsupported. But I chose to fix the error
supression first, as it's a deeper and wider issue.

FAIL: gdb.base/consecutive-step-over.exp: continue to breakpoint: break here (GDB internal error)
The assertion fails, because the code is not expecting that the event
thread itself might need another step over. IOW, not expecting that
TP in:
tp = find_thread_needs_step_over (stepping_thread != NULL,
stepping_thread);
could be the event thread.
A small fix for this would be to clear the event thread's
trap_expected earlier, before asserting. But looking deeper, although
currently_stepping_or_nexting_callback's intention is finding the
thread that is doing a step/next, it also returns the thread that is
doing a step-over dance, with trap_expected set. If there ever was a
reason for that (it was I who added
currently_stepping_or_nexting_callback , but I can't recall why I put
trap_expected there in the first place), the only remaining reason
nowadays is to aid in implementing switch_back_to_stepped_thread's
assertion that is now triggering, by piggybacking on the walk over all
threads, thus avoiding a separate walk. This is quite obscure, and I
think we can do even better, by merging the walks that look for the
stepping thread, and the walk that looks for some thread that might
need a step over.

Hi,
We find gdb.base/printcmds.exp fails a lot on windows host, like this,
p ctable1[163]
$204 = 163 '£'
(gdb) FAIL: gdb.base/printcmds.exp: p ctable1[163]
however, on linux host,
p ctable1[163]
$205 = 163 '\243'
(gdb) PASS: gdb.base/printcmds.exp: p ctable1[163]
The printing related code is in valprint.c:print_wchar,
if (gdb_iswprint (w) && (!need_escape || (!gdb_iswdigit (w)
&& w != LCST ('8')
&& w != LCST ('9'))))
{
gdb_wchar_t wchar = w;
if (w == gdb_btowc (quoter) || w == LCST ('\\'))
obstack_grow_wstr (output, LCST ("\\"));
obstack_grow (output, &wchar, sizeof (gdb_wchar_t));
}
else
{
// print W in hex or octal digits
}
When I debug gdb on different hosts, I find
on windows host, gdb_iswprint (iswprint) returns true if 'w' is 163.
However, on linux host, iswprint returns false if 'w' is 163. Looks
this difference is caused by the charset. On Linux host,
the target-charset is ANSI_X3.4-1968, while on windows host, the
target-charset is CP1252.
We can see how target-charset affects the output. On linux host,
(gdb) set target-charset ASCII
(gdb) p ctable1[163]
$1 = 163 '\243'
(gdb) set target-charset CP1252
(gdb) p ctable1[163]
$2 = 163 '£'
we can print the pound sign too, and it shows target-charset does
affect the output.
This patch is to set target-charset temporarily to ASCII for some
charset-sensitive tests. Tested on arm-none-eabi and
powerpc-linux-gnu on mingw32 host. More than one hundred fails are
fixed.

few dlopen/dlsym -style functions. That's what this patch does.

* gdb.base/sym-file-loader.c: Fix typo. SELF_LINK, not SELK_LINK.
The main issue here is that this test passes the host's absolute path
to the library to load to the "dlopen"-like routine, which doesn't
work when either the target or the host are remote, unless a shared
filesystem has been set up.
Tests that dynamically load a library solve this by dlopen'ing by
basename, and setting rpath to $ORIGIN. See gdb_compile.
This test doesn't use dlopen, but instead uses its own simple elf
loader. The fix is to pass this loader the library basename, and
teach it to look up the library by basename in the executable's
directory as well, i.e., assuming/emulating RPATH=$ORIGIN.
Tested on x86_64 Fedora 17, native and gdbserver.
I looked around in the web to figure out Linux's /proc/self/exe
equivalents in other ELF OSs. I think I covered all relevant, but if
not, I think it'll be simple enough to add more. (Note the test is
skipped on non-ELF targets.)

If the type of the operand is a variable length array type, the operand

This patch mirrors the following c99 semantic in gdb:
1| int vla[n][m];
2| int i = 1;
3| sizeof(vla[i++][0]); // No sideffect
4| assert (i == 1);

Doug told me that there are some regressions in gdb.base/completion.exp.
They are caused by my recent change, and can be reproduced via:

in a parallel run, because binary file and object files are placed

While trying to fix hbreak2.exp against GDBserver I noticed this...

Sending packet: $Z1,40058f,1;X3,220127#9b...
*hangs forever*
The issue is that nothing advances the packet pointer if
add_breakpoint_condition either fails to parse the agent expression,
or fails to find the breakpoint, resulting in an infinite loop in
process_point_options. The latter case should really be fixed by
GDBserver tracking GDB Z1 breakpoints in its breakpoint structures
like Z0 breakpoints are, but the latter case still needs handling.
add_breakpoint_commands has the same issue, though at present I don't
know any way to trigger it other than sending a manually cooked
packet.
Unbelievably, it doesn't look like we have any test that tries setting
a conditional hardware breakpoint. Looking at cond-eval-mode.exp, it
looks like the file was meant to actually test something, but it's
mostly empty today. This patch adds tests that tries all sorts of
conditional breakpoints and watchpoints. The test hangs/fails without
the GDBserver fix.

In the test, the comment says "# Send \026@ instead of just @ in case

Ctrl-V (\026) is to escape the next character. However, we don't have
to do so on mingw. This patch is to disable ctrl-v usage on mingw

The completion feature and other features on readline depend on the
readline library. However, readline library is not always used, for
example, running testsuite like
make check RUNTESTFLAGS="--host_board=local-remote-host"
the input stream is not a tty, and GDB doesn't use readline library
as a result.
This patch is to skip tests on completion and readline if
'show editing' is off, which means readline isn't used. Note that
some tests in gdb.base/completion.exp test command complete, which
isn't related to readline, so these tests aren't affected by readline
library. This patch also moves these tests up, run them
unconditionally, and run the rest if readline library is used.

After a previous patch that was committed by Pedro (0000e5cc), trying
to set a dprintf with with a GDBserver that doesn't support agent
commands at all now throws an error. But the dprintf tests still fail
with some GDBserver targets because they doesn't try to handle the
case of the server reporting support for breakpoint commands, but not
be able to use those in combination with Z0 (because Z0 isn't actually
supported, for example):
FAIL: gdb.base/dprintf.exp: 1st dprintf, agent
FAIL: gdb.base/dprintf.exp: 2nd dprintf, agent
FAIL: gdb.base/dprintf.exp: dprintf info 2 (pattern 4)
Similarly for the MI test.
This patch makes the tests handle this scenario.
Tested with native, and native gdbserver on x86_64 Fedora 17.

(One of the new comments mentions breakpoint always-inserted mode.
Actually testing with breakpoint always-inserted mode fails these

The problem is that GDB gave the prompt back to the user too early.
This happens when calling functions while handling an event that
doesn't cause a user visible stop. dprintf with "set dprintf-style
gdb" is one such case. This patch adds a test case that has a
breakpoint with a condition that calls a function that returns false,
so that regression testing isn't dependent on the implementation of
dprintf.
The problem happens because run_inferior_call causes GDB to forget
that it is running in sync_execution mode, so any event that runs an
inferior call causes fetch_inferior_event to display the prompt, even
if the event should not result in a user visible stop (that is, gdb
resumes the inferior and waits for the next event).
This patch fixes the issue by noticing when GDB was in sync_execution
mode in run_inferior_call, and taking care to restore this state
afterward.

Say the program is stopped at a breakpoint, and the user sets a
watchpoint. When the program is next resumed, GDB will first step
over the breakpoint, as explained in the manual:
@value {GDBN} normally ignores breakpoints when it resumes
execution, until at least one instruction has been executed. If it
it did not do this, you would be unable to proceed past a breakpoint
without first disabling the breakpoint. This rule applies whether
or not the breakpoint already existed when your program stopped.
However, GDB currently also removes watchpoints, catchpoints, etc.,
and that means that the first instruction off the breakpoint does not
trigger the watchpoint, catchpoint, etc.
testsuite/gdb.base/watchpoint.exp has a kfail for this.
The PR proposes installing watchpoints only when stepping over a
breakpoint, but that misses catchpoints, etc.
A better fix would instead work from the opposite direction -- remove
only real breakpoints, leaving all other kinds of breakpoints
inserted.
But, going further, it's really a waste to constantly remove/insert
all breakpoints when stepping over a single breakpoint (generating a
pair of RSP z/Z packets for each breakpoint), so the fix goes a step
further and makes GDB remove _only_ the breakpoint being stepped over,
leaving all others installed. This then has the added benefit of
reducing breakpoint-related RSP traffic substancialy when there are
many breakpoints set.

I find the mention of "Unix" unnecessary (and really slightly a lie)
on GNU/Linux in a couple of places:
(gdb) maint print target-stack
The current target stack is:
- multi-thread (multi-threaded child process.)
- child (Unix child process)
- exec (Local exec file)
- None (None)
(gdb) help target child
Unix child process (started by the "run" command).
(gdb) target child
Use the "run" command to start a Unix child process.
It's also odd that e.g., the Windows port says "Unix" in reaction to
"target child" (it was already that way before Windows used
inf-child.c):
(gdb) target child
Use the "run" command to start a Unix child process.
(gdb)
So drop "Unix", going in the direction of saying mostly the same on
all native targets:
(gdb) maint print target-stack
The current target stack is:
- multi-thread (multi-threaded child process.)
- - child (Unix child process)
+ - child (Child process)

A patch in the target cleanup series caused a regression when using
record with target-async. Version 4 of the patch is here:
https://sourceware.org/ml/gdb-patches/2014-03/msg00159.html
The immediate problem is that record supplies to_can_async_p and
to_is_async_p methods, but does not supply a to_async method. So,
when target-async is set, record claims to support async -- but if the
underlying target does not support async, then the to_async method
call will end up in that method's default implementation, namely
tcomplain.
This worked previously because the record target used to provide a
to_async method; one that (erroneously, only at push time) checked the
other members of the target stack, and then simply dropped to_async
calls in the "does not implement async" case.
My first thought was to simply drop tcomplain as the default for
to_async. This works, but Pedro pointed out that the only reason
record has to supply to_can_async_p and to_is_async_p is that these
default to using the find_default_run_target machinery -- and these
defaults are only needed by "run" and "attach".
So, a nicer solution presents itself: change run and attach to
explicitly call into the default run target when needed; and change
to_is_async_p and to_can_async_p to default to "return 0". This makes
the target stack simpler to use and lets us remove the method
implementations from record. This is also in harmony with other plans
for the target stack; namely trying to reduce the impact of
find_default_run_target. This approach makes it clear that
find_default_is_async_p is not needed -- it is asking whether a target
that may not even be pushed is actually async, which seems like a
nonsensical question.
While an improvement, this approach proved to introduce the same bug
when using the core target. Looking a bit deeper, the issue is that
code in "attach" and "run" may need to use either the current target
stack or the default run target -- but different calls into the target
API in those functions could wind up querying different targets.
This new patch makes the target to use more explicit in "run" and
"attach". Then these commands explicitly make the needed calls
against that target. This ensures that a single target is used for
all relevant operations. This lets us remove a couple find_default_*
functions from various targets, including the dummy target. I think
this is a decent understandability improvement.
One issue I see with this patch is that the new calls in "run" and
"attach" are not very much like the rest of the target API. I think
fundamentally this is due to bad factoring in the target API, which
may need to be fixed for multi-target. Tackling that seemed ambitious
for a regression fix.
While working on this I noticed that there don't seem to be any test
cases that involve both target-async and record, so this patch changes
break-precsave.exp to add some. It also changes corefile.exp to add
some target-async tests; these pass with current trunk and with this
patch applied, but fail with the v1 patch.
This patch differs from v4 in that it moves initialization of
to_can_async_p and to_supports_non_stop into inf-child, adds some
assertions to complete_target_initialization, and adds some comments
to target.h.

In non-stop mode, or rather, breakpoints always-inserted mode, the
code cache can easily end up with stale breakpoint instructions:
All it takes is filling a cache line when breakpoints already exist in
that memory region, and then delete the breakpoint.

Requesting a disassembly works as expected, breakpoint shadowing is

Those breakpoint instructions are no longer installed in target memory
they're stale in the code cache. Easily confirmed by just disabling

I stumbled upon this when writing a patch to infrun.c, that made
handle_inferior_event & co fill in the cache before breakpoints were
removed from the target. Recall that wait_for_inferior flushes the
dcache for every event. So in that case, always-inserted mode was not
necessary to trigger this. It's just a convenient way to expose the
issue.
The dcache works at the raw memory level. We need to update it
whenever memory is written, no matter what kind of target memory
object was originally passed down by the caller. The issue is that
the dcache update code isn't reached when a caller explicitly writes
raw memory. Breakpoint insertion/removal is one such case --
mem-break.c uses target_write_read_memory/target_write_raw_memory.
The fix is to move the dcache update code from memory_xfer_partial_1
to raw_memory_xfer_partial so that it's always reachable.
When we do that, we can actually simplify a series of things.
memory_xfer_partial_1 no longer needs to handle writes for any kind of
memory object, and therefore dcache_xfer_memory no longer needs to
handle writes either. So the latter (dcache_xfer_memory) and its
callees can be simplified to only care about reads. While we're
touching dcache_xfer_memory's prototype, might as well rename it to
reflect that fact that it only handles reads, and make it follow the
new target_xfer_status/xfered_len style. This made me notice that
dcache_xfer_memory loses the real error status if a memory read fails:
we could have failed to read due to TARGET_XFER_E_UNAVAILABLE, for
instance, but we always return TARGET_XFER_E_IO, hence the FIXME note.
I felt that fixing that fell out of the scope of this patch.
Currently dcache_xfer_memory handles the case of a write failing. The
whole cache line is invalidated when that happens. However,
dcache_update, the sole mechanism for handling writes that will remain
after the patch, does not presently handle that scenario. That's a
bug. The patch makes it handle that, by passing down the
target_xfer_status status from the caller, so that it can better
decide what to do itself. While I was changing the function's
prototype, I constified the myaddr parameter, getting rid of the need
for the cast as seen in its existing caller.

This patch handles another aspect of the ELFv2 ABI, which unfortunately
requires common code changes.
In ELFv2, functions may provide both a global and a local entry point.
The global entry point (where the function symbol points to) is intended
to be used for function-pointer or cross-module (PLT) calls, and requires
r12 to be set up to the entry point address itself. The local entry
point (which is found at a fixed offset after the global entry point,
as defined by bits in the symbol table entries' st_other field), instead
expects r2 to be set up to the current TOC.
Now, when setting a breakpoint on a function by name, you really want
that breakpoint to trigger either way, no matter whether the function
is called via its local or global entry point. Since the global entry
point will always fall through into the local entry point, the way to
achieve that is to simply set the breakpoint at the local entry point.
One way to do that would be to have prologue parsing skip the code
sequence that makes up the global entry point. Unfortunately, this
does not work reliably, since -for optimized code- GDB these days
will not actuall invoke the prologue parsing code but instead just
set the breakpoint at the symbol address and rely on DWARF being
correct at any point throughout the function ...
Unfortunately, I don't really see any way to express the notion of
local entry points with the current set of gdbarch callbacks.
Thus this patch adds a new callback, skip_entrypoint, that is
somewhat analogous to skip_prologue, but is called every time
GDB needs to determine a function start address, even in those
cases where GDB decides to not call skip_prologue.
As a side effect, the skip_entrypoint implementation on ppc64
does not need to perform any instruction parsing; it can simply
rely on the local entry point flags in the symbol table entry.
With this implemented, two test cases would still fail to set
the breakpoint correctly, but that's because they use the construct:
gdb_test "break *hello"
Now, using "*hello" explicitly instructs GDB to set the breakpoint
at the numerical value of "hello" treated as function pointer, so
it will by definition only hit the global entry point.
I think this behaviour is unavoidable, but acceptable -- most people
do not use this construct, and if they do, they get what they
asked for ...
In one of those two test cases, use of this construct is really
not appropriate. I think this was added way back when as a means
to work around prologue skipping problems on some platforms. These
days that shouldn't really be necessary any more ...
For the other (step-bt), we really want to make sure backtracing
works on the very first instruction of the routine. To enable that
test also on powerpc64le-linux, we can modify the code to call the
test function via function pointer (which makes it use the global
entry point in the ELFv2 ABI).

Code rationale
==============
by: Gabriel Krisman Bertazi
This is a fix for bug 16297. The problem occurs when the user attempts
to catch any syscall 0 (such as syscall read on Linux/x86_64). GDB was
not able to catch the syscall and was missing the breakpoint.
Now, breakpoint_hit_catch_syscall returns immediately when it finds the
correct syscall number, avoiding a following check for the end of the
search vector, that returns a no hit if the syscall number was zero.
Testcase rationale
==================
by: Sergio Durigan Junior
This testcase is a little difficult to write. By doing a quick
inspection at the Linux source, one can see that, in many targets, the
syscall number 0 is restart_syscall, which is forbidden to be called
from userspace. Therefore, on many targets, there's just no way to test
this safely.
My decision was to take the simpler route and just adds the "read"
syscall on the default test. Its number on x86_64 is zero, which is
"good enough" since many people here do their tests on x86_64 anyway and
it is a popular architecture.
However, there was another little gotcha. When using "read" passing 0
as the third parameter (i.e., asking it to read 0 bytes), current libc
implementations could choose not to effectively call the syscall.
Therefore, the best solution was to create a temporary pipe, write 1
byte into it, and then read this byte from it.

While fixing another bug, I found that the current

improvements, and is not correctly testing some things.
I've made the following patch to address all the issues I found. On the
organization side, it does a cleanup and removes unecessary imports of
gdb_prompt, uses prepare_for_testing and clean_restart where needed, and
fixes some comments. The testcase was also not correctly testing
catching syscalls using only numbers, or catching many syscalls at
once. I fixed that.
The patch also uses a new method for obtaining the syscalls numbers: it
relies on the C source file to get them, via <sys/syscall.h> and SYS_*
macros. This makes the .exp file simpler because there is no need to
include target conditionals there.
I tested this on x86_64 Fedora 18.

I was "lucky" enough that an unrelated patch changed how many symtabs
GDB expands in a plain run to main, and that triggered a latent issue
in this test:
PASS: gdb.base/maint.exp: maint print objfiles: header
PASS: gdb.base/maint.exp: maint print objfiles: psymtabs
FAIL: gdb.base/maint.exp: maint print objfiles: symtabs
The problem is in my case, expect is managing to alway put in the
buffer chunks like this:
Psymtabs:
../../../src/gdb/testsuite/gdb.base/break1.c at 0x1ed2280, ../../../src/gdb/testsuite/gdb.base/break.c at 0x1ed21d0,
Symtabs:
../../../src/gdb/testsuite/gdb.base/break.c at 0x1f044f0, /usr/include/stdio.h at 0x1ed25a0, /usr/include/libio.h at 0x1ed2510, /usr/include/bits/types.h at 0x1ed2480, /usr/lib/gcc/x86_64-redhat-linux/4.7.2/include/stddef.h at 0x1ed23f0,

Psymtabs:

0x1f65290, ...
Note: Psymtabs:/Symtabs:/Psymtabs:.
So, the loop matches the first Psymtabs in the buffer. Then we're
left with
../../../src/gdb/testsuite/gdb.base/break1.c at 0x1ed2280, ../../../src/gdb/testsuite/gdb.base/break.c at 0x1ed21d0,
Symtabs:

In the next iteration, because the psymtabs regex comes first, we
match with the Psymtabs: line, then of course, end up with just
bsearch.c at 0x1f65340, ../sysdeps/x86_64/multiarch/init-arch.c at
0x1f65290, ...
in the buffer. The "Symtabs:" line is lost. expect then reads more
gdb output, and manages to again retrieve the same pattern. Rinse,
repeat, and the test never matches any "Symtab:" line.
We don't know the order the matches lines will appear, so the fix is
to consume one line at a time, and run it through all three milestone

Consider the following example:
% gdb -q -batch -ex 'source nonexistant-file'

One would have at least expected the debugger to warn about
not finding the file, similar to the error shown when using
a more interactive mode. Eg:
(gdb) source nonexistant-file
nonexistant-file: No such file or directory.
Not raising an error appears to be intentional, presumably in order
to prevent this situation from stoping the execution of a GDB script.
But the lack of at least a warning makes it harder for a user to
diagnose any issue, if the file was expected to be there and readable.
This patch adds a warning in that case:

I've made modifications on infrun.c:handle_inferior_event such that
$_exitcode gets cleared when the inferior signalled, and vice-versa.
This assumption was made because the variables are mutually
exclusive, i.e., when the inferior terminates because of an uncaught
signal it is not possible for it to return. I have also made modifications
such that when a corefile is loaded, $_exitsignal gets set to the uncaught
signal that "killed" the inferior, and $_exitcode is cleared.

This patch adds a new convenience function called $_isvoid, whose
only purpose is to check whether an expression is void or not.
This became necessary because the new convenience variable
$_exitsignal (not yet approved) has a mutual exclusive behavior
with $_exitcode, i.e., when one is "defined" (i.e., non-void),
the other is cleared (i.e., becomes void). Doug wanted a way to
identify which variable to use, and checking for voidness is the
obvious solution.
It is worth mentioning that my first attempt, after a conversation with
Doug, was to actually implement a new $_isdefined() convenience
function. I would do that (for convenience variables) by calling
lookup_only_internalvar. However, I found a few problems:
- Whenever I called $_isdefined ($variable), $variable became defined
(with a void value), and $_isdefined always returned true.
- Then, I tried to implement $_isdefined ("variable"), and do the "$" +
"variable" inside GDB, thus making it impossible for GDB to create the
convenience variable. However, it was hard to extract the string
without having to mess with values and their idiossincrasies.
Therefore, I decided to abandon this attempt (specially because I
didn't want to spend too much time struggling with it).
Anyway, after talking to Doug again we decided that it would be easier
to implement $_isvoid, and this will probably help in cases like
<http://stackoverflow.com/questions/3744554/testing-if-a-gdb-convenience-variable-is-defined>.
I wrote a NEWS entry for it, and some new lines on the documentation.

With "dwz -m", "main" appears in both the PU and the importing CU when
running anon-struct.exp. However, the PU does not have a file name.
So, find_main_filename returns the empty string, making
deduce_language_from_filename return language_unknown.
This patch fixes this problem by changing gdb to use the ordinary
symbol-lookup functions to find "main"'s symbol. Then, it examines the
symbol's language.
I think this is cleaner than the current approach. For one thing it
avoids trying to guess the language based on the source file name,
instead deferring to the presumably more reliable debuginfo.
Another possible fix would have been to change how the file name is
found via the "qf" methods. However, I think the approach given is
preferable for the reason outlined above.
This required a minor test suite change, as now a symtab is expanded
during the search for "main".

When GDB is run with IO redirected to a pipe, the 'interrupt' command
causes it to kill its own process group instead of the inferior's.
The problem manifests itself in async mode, native debugging:
$ cat | gdb <file>
(gdb) set target-async on
(gdb) run &
(gdb) interrupt
A debugging session is active.
Inferior 1 [process 20584] will be killed.
Quit anyway? (y or n) [answered Y; input not from terminal]
In this case, GDB tells that its stdin isn't a tty and doesn't save
the inferior's process group in
inflow.c:terminal_init_inferior_with_pgrp. The 'interrupt' command
tries to 'kill' the inferior's process group in
`inf-ptrace.c:inf_ptrace_stop`, but since that wasn't saved in the
first place, GDB kills process group 0, meaning, its own process
group.
When GDB is used from a frontend, that means killing its own process
group including the frontend and possibly the X session. This was
originally seen with SublimeGDB:
https://github.com/quarnster/SublimeGDB/issues/29.
The patch makes GDB save the inferior pgid regardless of having a
terminal, as pgid is used not only to reset foreground process group,
but also to interrupt the inferior process. It also adds a regression
test. Luckily, we can emulate not having a terminal with "set
interactive-mode off", avoiding the need of special magic to spawn gdb
with a pipe.

The bug here is that when a software watchpoint is being used, gdb
will stop responding to C-c. This is a regression caused by the
"catch signal" patch.
The problem is that software watchpoints always end up on the bpstat
list. However, this makes bpstat_explains_signal return
BPSTAT_SIGNAL_HIDE, causing infrun to think that the signal is not a
"random signal".
The fix is to change bpstat_explains_signal to handle this better. I
chose to do it in a "clean API" way, by passing the signal value to
bpstat_explains_signal and then adding an explains_signal method for
watchpoints, which handles the specifics.

Currently, several commands take "0" or "-1" to mean "unlimited".
"show" knows when to print "unlimited":
(gdb) show height
Number of lines gdb thinks are in a page is 45.
(gdb) set height 0
(gdb) show height
Number of lines gdb thinks are in a page is unlimited.
However, the user can't herself specify "unlimited" directly:
(gdb) set height unlimited
No symbol table is loaded. Use the "file" command.
(gdb)
This patch addresses that, by adjusting the set handler for all
integer/uinteger/zuinteger_unlimited commands to accept literal
"unlimited". It also installs a completer. Presently, we complete on
symbols by default, and at
<http://sourceware.org/ml/gdb-patches/2013-03/msg00864.html> I've
shown a WIP prototype that tried to keep that half working in these
commands. In the end, it turned out to be more complicated than
justifiable, IMO. It's super rare to want to pass the value of a
variable/symbol in the program to a GDB set/show knob. That'll still
work, it's just that we won't assist with completion anymore. This
patch just sticks with the simple, and completes on "unlimited", and
nothing else. This simplification means that
"set he<tab><tab>"
is all it takes to get to:
"set height unlimited"
The patch then goes through all integer/uinteger/zuinteger_unlimited
commands in the tree, and updates both the online help and the manual
to mention that "unlimited" is accepted in addition to 0/-1. In the
cases where the command had no online help text at all, this adds it.
I've tried to make the texts read in a way that "unlimited" is
suggested before "0" or "-1" is.

Before this patch:
http://sourceware.org/ml/gdb-patches/2012-08/msg00367.html
was applied, the "set listsize" command was a var_integer command, and
"unlimited" was set with 0. Internally, var_integer maps 0 to INT_MAX
case var_integer:
{
...
if (val == 0 && c->var_type == var_integer)
val = INT_MAX;
The change in that patch to zuinteger_unlimited command, meant that -1
is left as -1 in the command's control variable (lines_to_list), and
the code in source.c isn't expecting that -- it only expects positive
numbers.
I previously suggested fixing the code and keeping the new behavior,
but I found that "set listsize 0" is currently used in the wild, and
we do have a bunch of other commands where "0" means unlimited, so I'm
thinking that changing this command alone in isolation is not a good
idea.
So I now strongly prefer reverting back the behavior in 7.6 to the
same behavior the command has had since 2006 (0==unlimited, -1=error).
Before that, set listsize -1 would be accepted as unlimited as well.
After 7.6 is out, in mainline, we can get back to reconsidering
changing this command's behavior, if there's a real need for being
able to suppress output. For now, let's play it safe.
The "list line 1 with unlimited listsize" test in list.exp was
originally written years and years ago expecting 0 to mean "no
output", but GDB never actually worked that way, even when the tests
were written, so the tests had been xfailed then. This patch now
adjusts the test to the new behavior, so that the test actually
passes, and the xfail is removed.

Before the changes starting at
<http://sourceware.org/ml/gdb-patches/2012-08/msg00020.html>, the 'set

"unlimited". The testsuite actually tried "set listsize -1" and
expected that to mean unlimited too.
If you tried testing list.exp at the time of that patch above,
you'd get:

Notice that "set listsize -1" actually failed with "integer 4294967295
out of range", but we issued a PASS anyway.
(and notice how the "listsize of 0 suppresses output" test passes bogusly too.)
This patch fixes that testsuite problem in the obvious way.

This is a regression from 7.5, introduced/exposed by:
http://sourceware.org/ml/gdb-patches/2012-07/msg00259.html
There are a series of issues with this code.
It does:
unsigned int val = parse_and_eval_long (arg);
^^^^^^^^^^^^
(unsigned, usually 32-bit) while parse_and_eval_long returns a LONGEST
(usually 64-bit), so we lose precision without noticing:
(gdb) set remote hardware-watchpoint-limit 0x100000000
(gdb) show remote hardware-watchpoint-limit 0x100000000
The maximum number of target hardware watchpoints is 0.
While at it, print the invalid number with plongest, so the user sees
what GDB thought the number was:
(gdb) set remote hardware-watchpoint-limit 0x100000000
integer 4294967296 out of range
So with "set remote hardware-watchpoint-limit -1", val ends converted
to 0xffffffff, which then fails the
else if (val >= INT_MAX)
error (_("integer %u out of range"), val);
test.
Looking at that INT_MAX check, we forbid INT_MAX itself, but we
shouldn't, as that does fit in 'int' -- we want to forbid values
_greater_ than INT_MAX (and less than INT_MIN, while at it):
(gdb) set remote hardware-watchpoint-limit 2147483647
integer 2147483647 out of range
The same problem is in the new var_zuinteger_unlimited code, which
also uses "int" for variable.
Also, when printing a 'signed int', we should use %d, not %u.
This adds a couple regression tests. Not completely thorough in checking
all kinds of invalid input; I'm saving more exaustive testing around
zXXinteger commands for something like new test-assisting commands
like "maint test cmd-zinteger -1", where testing would focus on the
command types, and thus be independent of particular user commands of
particular GDB features.
Tested on x86_64 Fedora 17.
