Functions and variables that are exported by the IPA DSO (that
GDBserver needs to look up) should have "C" mangling, thus be declared
with extern "C".
Function and variable declarations need the extern "C" marker, but
variable definitions can't be marked extern, so the patch splits
IP_AGENT_EXPORT into three.
Building in C++ mode revealed that a few variables were missing
IP_AGENT_EXPORT, thus the IPA has been broken when stripped, even in C
mode... So this ends being a bug fix as well.

The set_record_btrace_cmdlist and show_record_btrace_cmdlist objects

In C, an enum or structure defined inside other structure has global
scope just like it had been defined outside the struct in the first
place. However, in C++, such a nested structure is given a name that
is nested inside the structure. This patch moves such affected
structures/enums out to global scope, so that code using them works
the same in C++ as it works today in C.

This patch renames symbols that happen to have names which are
reserved keywords in C++.
Most of this was generated with Tromey's cxx-conversion.el script.
Some places where later hand massaged a bit, to fix formatting, etc.
And this was rebased several times meanwhile, along with re-running
the script, so re-running the script from scratch probably does not
result in the exact same output. I don't think that matters anyway.

Rename symbols whose names are reserved C++ keywords throughout.
This new option, disabled by default for now, allows specifying
whether to build GDB, GDBserver, and friends with a C++ (98/03)
compiler.
The name of the switch should be familiar to those who followed GCC's
own C++ conversion process.
. Adding -fpermissive to COMPILER in C++ mode (see the new
build-with-cxx.m4 file) makes errors like these be warnings instead:
gdb/infrun.c:6597:1: error: initializing argument 1 of ‘void sig_print_info(gdb_signal)’ [-fpermissive]
sig_print_info (enum gdb_signal oursig)
^
gdb/infrun.c: In function ‘void do_restore_infcall_suspend_state_cleanup(void*)’:
gdb/infrun.c:7164:39: error: invalid conversion from ‘void*’ to ‘infcall_suspend_state*’ [-fpermissive]
restore_infcall_suspend_state (state);
^
so that the compiler carries on compiling the file. -Werror still
catches the warnings, so nothing is lost, only our lifes are made
easier by concentrating on getting other more important things out of
the way first.
There's no way to quiet those warnings. Until they're all fixed, when
building in C++ mode, -Werror is disabled by default.
. Adding -Wno-narrowing suppresses thousands of instances of this warning:
gdb/arm-linux-tdep.c:439:1: error: narrowing conversion of ‘-1’ from ‘int’ to ‘ULONGEST {aka long unsigned int}’ inside { } is ill-formed in C++11 [-Werror=narrowing]
gdb/arm-linux-tdep.c:439:1: error: narrowing conversion of ‘-1l’ from ‘LONGEST {aka long int}’ to ‘ULONGEST {aka long unsigned int}’ inside { } is ill-formed in C++11 [-Werror=narrowing]
gdb/arm-linux-tdep.c:450:1: error: narrowing conversion of ‘-1’ from ‘int’ to ‘ULONGEST {aka long unsigned int}’ inside { } is ill-formed in C++11 [-Werror=narrowing]
We can defer handling those until we target C++11.
. Adding -Wno-sign-compare suppresses thousands of instances of this warning:
gdb/linux-record.c:1763:32: warning: comparison between signed and unsigned integer expressions [-Wsign-compare]
if (tmpulongest == tdep->fcntl_F_GETLK64)
^
. Adding -Wno-write-strings suppresses thousands of instances of this warning:
gdb/mi/mi-cmd-var.c: In function ‘void mi_cmd_var_show_attributes(char*, char**, int)’:
gdb/mi/mi-cmd-var.c:514:12: warning: deprecated conversion from string constant to ‘char*’ [-Wwrite-strings]
attstr = "editable";
^
gdb/mi/mi-cmd-var.c:516:12: warning: deprecated conversion from string constant to ‘char*’ [-Wwrite-strings]
attstr = "noneditable";
^
For now, it's best to hide these warnings from view until we're
'-fpermissive'-clean, and can thus start building with -Werror.
The C compiler has always managed to build working GDBs with these
issues in the code, so a C++ compiler should too.

Converting GDB to be a C++ program, I stumbled on 'basename' issues,
like:
src/gdb/../include/ansidecl.h:169:64: error: new declaration ‘char* basename(const char*)’
/usr/include/string.h:597:26: error: ambiguates old declaration ‘const char* basename(const char*)’
which I believe led to this bit in gold's configure.ac:
dnl We have to check these in C, not C++, because autoconf generates
dnl tests which have no type information, and current glibc provides
dnl multiple declarations of functions like basename when compiling
dnl with C++.
AC_CHECK_DECLS([basename, ffs, asprintf, vasprintf, snprintf, vsnprintf, strverscmp])
These checks IIUC intend to generate all the HAVE_DECL_FOO symbols
that libiberty.h and ansidecl.h check.
GDB is missing these checks currently, which results in the conflict
shown above.
This adds an m4 file that both GDB and GDBserver's configury use to
pull in the autoconf checks that libiberty clients needs done in order
to use these libiberty.h/ansidecl.h.

On 64-bit S390 platforms the "compile" command always failed because
gcc was not invoked correctly. This patch fixes the compiler
invocation.

(s390_gdbarch_init): Set the gcc_target_options gdbarch method for
64-bit targets as well. Set the gnu_triplet_regexp gdbarch
method.
For amd64, CONTEXT_FULL does not contain CONTEXT_SEGMENTS, which seems
to be needed to retrieve all the segment registers. Add it explicitly,
with a little de-cruftification.
The value of the segment registers isn't terribly useful on amd64, but
at least this makes the output of 'info registers' correct.

One could not call IFUNCs (=indirect functions) from the compiled injected

When doing finish in a function, if gdb fails to return a value, gdb
also fails at printing the value type if this type is a struct.
For example :
(gdb) fin
....
Value returned has type: . Cannot determine contents
This patch fixes this by calling type_to_string to print the type
so that we can support these types.
This patch returns the following example output :
(gdb) fin
....
Value returned has type: struct test. Cannot determine contents
Also, this patch modifies structs.exp to check that we return the
correct type.
gdb/ChangeLog:
* gdb/infcmd.c (print_return_value): use type_to_string to print type.
gdb/testsuite/ChangeLog:
* gdb.base/structs.exp: Check for correct struct on finish.
The attached patch fixes the SEGV and lets GDB successfully
load all kernel modules installed by default on RHEL 7.

- Use signal frame sniffers that look for the signal trampoline
instruction sequence to detect most signal frames.
- FreeBSD kernels between 9.2 and 10.1 inclusive do not include the
signal trampoline code in process core dumps. To detect signal
frames for core dumps under these kernels, use the
kern.proc.sigtramp.<pid> sysctl to fetch the location of the signal
trampoline in the gdb process and assume that PC values within this
location are signal frames. This depends on that location being
identical for all binaries.

instead.

We need to be careful with parsing optional stop reasons that start
with an hex character ("awatch", "core"), as GDBs that aren't aware of
them parse them as real numbers. That's silly of course, given that
there should be a colon after those magic "numbers". So if strtol on
"abbz:" doesn't return "first invalid char" pointing to the colon, we
know that "abbz" isn't really a register number. It must be optional
stop info we don't know about. This adjusts GDB to work that way,
removing the need for the special casing done upfront:
/* If this packet is an awatch packet, don't parse the 'a'
as a register number. */
if (strncmp (p, "awatch", strlen("awatch")) != 0
&& strncmp (p, "core", strlen ("core") != 0))
For as long as we care about compatibility with GDB 7.9, we'll need to
continue to be careful about this, so I added a comment.
Tested on x86_64 Fedora 20, native gdbserver.

TL;DR - GDB can hang if something refreshes the thread list out of the
target while the target is running. GDB hangs inside td_ta_thr_iter.
The fix is to not use that libthread_db function anymore.
Long version:
Running the testsuite against my all-stop-on-top-of-non-stop series is
still exposing latent non-stop bugs.
I was originally seeing this with the multi-create.exp test, back when
we were still using libthread_db thread event breakpoints. The
all-stop-on-top-of-non-stop series forces a thread list refresh each
time GDB needs to start stepping over a breakpoint (to pause all
threads). That test hits the thread event breakpoint often, resulting
in a bunch of step-over operations, thus a bunch of thread list
refreshes while some threads in the target are running.
The commit adds a real non-stop mode test that triggers the issue,
based on multi-create.exp, that does an explicit "info threads" when a
breakpoint is hit. IOW, it does the same things the as-ns series was
doing when testing multi-create.exp.
The bug is a race, so it unfortunately takes several runs for the test
to trigger it. In fact, even when setting the test running in a loop,
it sometimes takes several minutes for it to trigger for me.
The race is related to libthread_db's td_ta_thr_iter. This is
libthread_db's entry point for walking the thread list of the
inferior.
Sometimes, when GDB refreshes the thread list from the target,
libthread_db's td_ta_thr_iter can somehow see glibc's thread list as a
cycle, and get stuck in an infinite loop.
The issue is that when a thread exits, its thread control structure in
glibc is moved from a "used" list to a "cache" list. These lists are
simply circular linked lists where the "next/prev" pointers are
embedded in the thread control structure itself. The "next" pointer
of the last element of the list points back to the list's sentinel
"head". There's only one set of "next/prev" pointers for both lists;
thus a thread can only be in one of the lists at a time, not in both
simultaneously.
So when thread C exits, simplifying, the following happens. A-C are
threads. stack_used and stack_cache are the list's heads.
Before:
stack_used -> A -> B -> C -> (&stack_used)
stack_cache -> (&stack_cache)
After:
stack_used -> A -> B -> (&stack_used)
stack_cache -> C -> (&stack_cache)
td_ta_thr_iter starts by iterating at the list's head's next, and
iterates until it sees a thread whose next pointer points to the
list's head again. Thus in the before case above, C's next points to
stack_used, indicating end of list. In the same case, the stack_cache
list is empty.
For each thread being iterated, td_ta_thr_iter reads the whole thread
object out of the inferior. This includes the thread's "next"
pointer.
In the scenario above, it may happen that td_ta_thr_iter is iterating
thread B and has already read B's thread structure just before thread
C exits and its control structure moves to the cached list.
Now, recall that td_ta_thr_iter is running in the context of GDB, and
there's no locking between GDB and the inferior. From it's local copy
of B, td_ta_thr_iter believes that the next thread after B is thread
C, so it happilly continues iterating to C, a thread that has already
exited, and is now in the stack cache list.
After iterating C, td_ta_thr_iter finds the stack_cache head, which
because it is not stack_used, td_ta_thr_iter assumes it's just another
thread. After this, unless the reverse race triggers, GDB gets stuck
in td_ta_thr_iter forever walking the stack_cache list, as no thread
in thatlist has a next pointer that points back to stack_used (the
terminating condition).
Before fully understanding the issue, I tried adding cycle detection
to GDB's td_ta_thr_iter callback. However, td_ta_thr_iter skips
calling the callback in some cases, which means that it's possible
that the callback isn't called at all, making it impossible for GDB to
break the loop. I did manage to get GDB stuck in that state more than
once.
Fortunately, we can avoid the issue altogether. We don't really need
td_ta_thr_iter for live debugging nowadays, given PTRACE_EVENT_CLONE.
We already know how to map and lwp id to a thread id without iterating
(thread_from_lwp), so use that more.

This function has a few latent bugs that are triggered by a non-stop
mode test that will be added in a subsequent patch.
First, as described in the function's intro comment, the function is
supposed to return 1 if we're already auto attached to the thread, but
haven't processed the PTRACE_EVENT_CLONE event of its parent thread
yet.
Then, we may find that we're trying to attach to a clone child that
hasn't yet stopped for its initial stop, and therefore 'waitpid(...,
WNOHANG)' returns 0. In that case, we're currently adding the LWP to
the stopped_pids list, which results in linux_handle_extended_wait
skipping the waitpid call on the child, and thus confusing things
later on when the child eventually reports the stop.
Then, the tail end of lin_lwp_attach_lwp always sets the
last_resume_kind of the LWP to resume_stop, which is wrong given that
the user may be doing "info threads" while some threads are running.
And then, the else branch of lin_lwp_attach_lwp always sets the
stopped flag of the LWP. This branch is reached if the LWP is the
main LWP, which may well be running at this point (to it's wrong to
set its 'stopped' flag).
AFAICS, there's no reason anymore for special-casing the main/leader
LWP here:
- For the "attach" case, linux_nat_attach already adds the main LWP to
the lwp list, and sets its 'stopped' flag.
- For the "run" case, after linux_nat_create_inferior, end up in
linux_nat_wait_1 here:
/* The first time we get here after starting a new inferior, we may
not have added it to the LWP list yet - this is the earliest
moment at which we know its PID. */
if (ptid_is_pid (inferior_ptid))
{
/* Upgrade the main thread's ptid. */
thread_change_ptid (inferior_ptid,
ptid_build (ptid_get_pid (inferior_ptid),
ptid_get_pid (inferior_ptid), 0));
lp = add_initial_lwp (inferior_ptid);
lp->resumed = 1;
}
... which adds the LWP to the LWP list already, before
lin_lwp_attach_lwp can ever be reached.

On GNU/Linux, if a pthreaded program has a thread call clone(CLONE_VM)
directly, and then that clone LWP hits a debug event (breakpoint,
etc.) GDB internal errors. Threaded programs shouldn't really be
calling clone directly, but GDB shouldn't crash either.
The crash looks like this:
(gdb) break clone_fn
Breakpoint 2 at 0x4007d8: file clone-thread_db.c, line 35.
(gdb) r
...
[Thread debugging using libthread_db enabled]
...
src/gdb/linux-nat.c:1030: internal-error: lin_lwp_attach_lwp: Assertion `lwpid > 0' failed.
A problem internal to GDB has been detected,
further debugging may prove unreliable.
The problem is that 'clone' ends up clearing the parent thread's tid
field in glibc's thread data structure. For x86_64, the glibc code in
question is here:
sysdeps/unix/sysv/linux/x86_64/clone.S:
...
testq $CLONE_THREAD, %rdi
jne 1f
testq $CLONE_VM, %rdi
movl $-1, %eax <----
jne 2f
movl $SYS_ify(getpid), %eax
syscall
2: movl %eax, %fs:PID
movl %eax, %fs:TID <----
1:
When GDB refreshes the thread list out of libthread_db, it finds a
thread with LWP with pid -1 (the clone's parent), which naturally
isn't yet on the thread list. GDB then tries to attach to that bogus
LWP id, which is caught by that assertion.
The fix is to detect the bad PID early.
Tested on x86-64 Fedora 20. GDBserver doesn't need any fix.

When gdb creates a dummy frame to execute a function in the inferior,
the process may generate a SIGSEGV, SIGTRAP or SIGILL because the stack
is non executable. If the signal handler set in gdb has option print
or stop enabled for these signals gdb handles this correctly.
However, in the case of noprint and nostop the signal is short-circuited
and the inferior process is sent the signal directly. This causes the
inferior to crash because of gdb.
This patch adds a check for SIGSEGV, SIGTRAP or SIGILL so that these
signals are sent to gdb rather than short-circuited in the inferior.
gdb then handles them properly and the inferior process does not
crash.
This patch also fixes the same behavior in gdbserver.

gdb/doc/agentexpr.texi documents the "setv" opcode as follow:
@item @code{setv} (0x2d) @var{n}: @result{} @var{v}
Set trace state variable number @var{n} to the value found on the top
of the stack. The stack is unchanged, so that the value is readily
available if the assignment is part of a larger expression. The
handling of @var{n} is as described for @code{getv}.
The @item line is incorrect (and does not match with its
description), so this patch fixes it.
Additionally, in gdb/common/ax.def we find the line:
DEFOP (setv, 2, 0, 0, 1, 0x2d)
From the comment earlier in the file:
Each line is of the form:
DEFOP (name, size, data_size, consumed, produced, opcode)
[...]
CONSUMED is the number of stack elements consumed.
PRODUCED is the number of stack elements produced.
which is saying that nothing is consumed and one item is produced.
Both should be 0 or both should be 1.
This patch sets them both to 1, which seems better since if nothing
is on the stack an error will occur.

This patch adds the above-mentioned commands to the generic probe

enabling or disabling a probe depend on the type of probe being
handled, and is triggered by invoking two back-end hooks in

enabling and/or disabling, the corresponding fields on `probe_ops' can
be initialized to NULL. This is the case of SystemTap probes.

This patch moves the `compute_probe_arg' and `compile_probe_arg' functions

assume that all backends will provide the `$_probe_argN' convenience
variables, and that the user must be placed on the PC of the probe when
requesting that information. The value and type of the argument can still be
determined by the probe backend via the `pops->evaluate_probe_argument' and
`pops->compile_to_ax' handlers.

A "probe type" (backend for the probe abstraction implemented in

defining additional columns. This means that when `info probes' is
used to print all the probes regardless of their types, some of the
columns will be "not applicable" to some of the probes (like, say, the
Semaphore column only makes sense for SystemTap probes). This patch
makes `info probes' fill these slots with "n/a" marks (currently it
breaks the table) and not include headers for which no actual probe
has been found in the list of defined probes.

#2 - resizes the terminal
#3 - and then re-enables the TUI
the next wgetch() returns KEY_RESIZE. This indicates to the ncurses
client that ncurses detected that the terminal has been resized. We
don't handle KEY_RESIZE anywhere, so it gets passed on to readline
which interprets it as a multibyte character, and then the end result
is that the first key press after enabling the TUI is misinterpreted.
We shouldn't really need to handle KEY_RESIZE (and not all ncurses
implementations have that). We have our own SIGWINCH handler, and,
when we re-enable the TUI, we explicitly detect terminal resizes and
resize all windows. The reason ncurses currently does detects a
resize is that something within tui_enable forces a refresh/display of
some window before we get to do the actual resizing. Setting a break
on ncurses' 'resizeterm' function helps find the culprit(s):

That is, tui_enable calls tui_set_key_mode before we've resized all
windows, and that refreshes a window as side effect.
And if we're already debugging something (there's a frame), then we'll
instead show a window from within tui_show_frame_info:

The fix is to resize windows earlier.
gdb/ChangeLog:
2015-02-17 Pedro Alves <palves@redhat.com>
* tui/tui.c (tui_enable): Resize windows before anything
might show a window.
Current trunk GDB (and gdb-7.8.1 too) fails to build on Aarch64 when
-fno-common is enabled. It fails during link stage due to multiple
definition of `tdesc_aarch64':
...
[ 199s] aarch64-linux-nat.o: In function `initialize_tdesc_aarch64':
[ 199s]

This happens because struct target_desc *tdesc_aarch64 is defined in
gdb/features/aarch64.c, which is included by two files
(gdb/aarch64-linux-nat.c and gdb/aarch64-tdep.c).

PR gdb/17984
* aarch64-linux-nat.c: Don't include features/aarch64.c anymore.
(aarch64_linux_read_description): Remove initialize_tdesc_aarch64
call.
* aarch64-tdep.h (tdesc_aarch64): Declare.
gdb/ChangeLog:
* cp-namespace.c (cp_basic_lookup_symbol): Rename parameter
anonymous_namespace to is_in_anonymous for consistency with the rest
of the file.
(cp_lookup_bare_symbol): Fix typo in comment.
(cp_search_static_and_baseclasses): Ditto.
(search_symbol_list): Use vertical space in comment better.
(reset_directive_searched): Ditto. Fix typo.
(cp_lookup_nested_symbol_1): Clarify contents of NESTED_NAME parameter.
Now when the code is exception safe we can let RETURN_QUIT to pass through as
all the installed cleanups with handle that.
