While working on another patch I realized that value_aggregate_elt's
"name" parameter ought to be const. This patch implements this.

DWARF allows an enumeration type to have a DW_AT_type. GDB doesn't
recognize this, but there is a patch to change GCC to emit it, and a
DWARF proposal to further allow an enum type with a DW_AT_type to omit
the DW_AT_byte_size. This patch changes gdb to implement this.
Built and regtested on x86-64 Fedora 20.
2014-04-14 Tom Tromey <tromey@redhat.com>

The dwarf attribute DW_AT_count specifies the elements of a subrange.
This test covers subranges with present count but absent upper bound
attribute, both with static and dynamic attribute values.

The c99 standard in "6.5.3.4 The sizeof operator" states:
If the type of the operand is a variable length array type, the operand
is evaluated;[...]
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);
5| sizeof(vla[i++]); // With sideffect
6| assert (i == 2);
Note: ptype/whatis still do not allow any sideeffects.

This patch adds support for DW_AT_count as requested in the code review:

gdb/ChangeLog:
* dwarf2read.c (read_subrange_type): Convert DW_AT_count to a dynamic
property and store it as the high bound and flag the range accordingly.
* gdbtypes.c (resolve_dynamic_bounds): If range is flagged as
RANGE_UPPER_BOUND_IS_COUNT assign low + high - 1 as the new high bound.
* gdbtypes.h (enum range_flags): New enum.
(struct range_bounds): Add flags member.
1| void foo (size_t n) {
2| int vla[n];
3| }
Given the following expression
(gdb) ptype &vla
Gdb evaluates the expression with EVAL_AVOID_SIDE_EFFECTS and thus
does not resolve the bounds information and misinterprets the high
bound as a constant. The current output is:
type = int (*)[1289346]
this patch deals with this case and prints:
type = int (*)[variable length]
instead.
gdb/ChangeLog:
* c-typeprint.c (c_type_print_varspec_suffix): Added
check for not yet resolved high bound. If unresolved, print
"variable length" string to the console instead of random
length.
Constructing a value based on a type and address might change the type
of the newly constructed value. Thus re-fetch type via value_type to ensure
we have the correct type at hand.

This patch enables the sizeof operator for indirections:
1| void foo (size_t n) {
2| int vla[n];
3| int *vla_ptr = &vla;
4| }
(gdb) p sizeof(*vla_ptr)
yields sizeof (size_t) * n.
gdb/ChangeLog:
* eval.c (evaluate_subexp_for_sizeof) <UNOP_IND>: Create an indirect
value and retrieve the dynamic type size.
In C99 the sizeof operator computes the size of a variable length array
at runtime (6.5.3.4 The sizeof operator). This patch reflects the semantic
change in the debugger.
We now are able to get the size of a vla:
1| void foo (size_t n) {
2| int vla[n];
3| }
(gdb) p sizeof(vla)
yields N * sizeof(int).
gdb/ChangeLog:
* eval.c (evaluate_subexp_for_sizeof) <OP_VAR_VALUE>: If the type
passed to sizeof is dynamic evaluate the argument to compute the length.
The dwarf standard allow certain attributes to be expressed as dwarf
expressions rather than constants. For instance upper-/lowerbound attributes.
In case of a c99 variable length array the upperbound is a dynamic attribute.
With this change c99 vla behave the same as with static arrays.
1| void foo (size_t n) {
2| int ary[n];
3| memset(ary, 0, sizeof(ary));

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:
$ make check-parallel TESTS=gdb.base/completion.exp

FAIL: gdb.base/completion.exp: complete target tfile ./gdb.base/completion

Current tests assume that gdb.base/completion exists but that is wrong
in a parallel run, because binary file and object files are placed
in outputs/gdb.base/completion/.
This patch is to check file exists on two candidate directories,
"gdb.base" and "outputs/gdb.base/completion/", and run tests with files
existed in either of them.

While trying to fix hbreak2.exp against GDBserver I noticed this...
(gdb) hbreak main if 1
Sending packet: $m400580,40#2e...Packet received: e8d2ffffff5dc3554889e54883ec10c745fc00000000eb0eb800000000e8c1ffffff8345fc01817dfce70300007ee9b800000000c9c3662e0f1f840000000000

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.

Breakpoints are supposed to be transparent to memory accesses. For
all kinds of breakpoints breakpoint_xfer_memory hides the breakpoint
instructions. However, sss breakpoints aren't tracked like all other
breakpoints, and nothing is taking care of hiding them from memory
reads.
Say, as is, a background step + disassemble will see breakpoints
instructions on software step targets. E.g., stepping over this line:
while (1);
with s&
and then "disassemble" would show sss breakpoints.
Actually, that's still not be possible to see today, because:
- in native Linux, you can't read memory while the program
is running.
- with Linux gdbserver, you can, but in the all-stop RSP you
can't talk to the server while the program is running...
- and with non-stop, on software step targets, we presently
force the use of displaced-stepping for all single-steps,
so no single-step breakpoints are used...
I've been working towards making non-stop not force displaced stepping
on sss targets, and I noticed the issue then. With that, I indeed see
this:
(gdb) set remote Z-packet off
(gdb) s&
(gdb) disassemble main
Dump of assembler code for function main:
0x000000000040049c <+0>: push %rbp
0x000000000040049d <+1>: mov %rsp,%rbp
0x00000000004004a0 <+4>: int3
0x00000000004004a1 <+5>: (bad)
End of assembler dump.
Instead of the correct:
(gdb) disassemble main
Dump of assembler code for function main:
0x000000000040049c <+0>: push %rbp
0x000000000040049d <+1>: mov %rsp,%rbp
0x00000000004004a0 <+4>: jmp 0x4004a0 <main+4>
This is actually one thing that my v1 of the recent "fix a bunch of
run control bugs" series was fixing, because it made sss breakpoints
be regular breakpoints in the breakpoint chain. But dropped it in the
version that landed in the tree, due to some problems.
So instead of making sss breakpoints regular breakpoints, go with a
simpler fix (at least for now) -- make breakpoint_xfer_memory take
software single-step breakpoints into account. After the patch, I get
the correct disassemble output.
Tested on x86_64 Fedora 17, and also on top of my "use software
single-step on x86" series.
Also fixes the issue pointed out by Yao at
https://sourceware.org/ml/gdb-patches/2014-04/msg00045.html, where the
prologue analysis/frame sniffing manages to see software step
