Even if it managed to load libcc1.so (it needs host-dependent name libcc1.dll)
then it would soon end up at least on:
default_infcall_mmap:
error (_("This target does not support inferior memory allocation by mmap."));
As currently there is only:
linux-tdep.c:
set_gdbarch_infcall_mmap (gdbarch, linux_infcall_mmap);
While one could debug Linux targets from MS-Windows host I find it somehow
overcomplicated now when we are trying to get it running at least on native
Linux x86*.
The 'compile' project needs a larger port effort to run on MS-Windows.

Anytime you can remove a symbol lookup that loops over all objfiles
is A Good Thing.
The call to lookup_static_symbol in valops.c:value_maybe_namespace_elt
is redundant with this call in cp_lookup_nested_symbol:
/* Now search all static file-level symbols. We have to do this
for things like typedefs in the class. We do not try to
guess any imported namespace as even the fully specified
namespace search is already not C++ compliant and more
assumptions could make it too magic. */
size = strlen (parent_name) + 2 + strlen (nested_name) + 1;
concatenated_name = alloca (size);
xsnprintf (concatenated_name, size, "%s::%s",
parent_name, nested_name);
sym = lookup_static_symbol (concatenated_name, VAR_DOMAIN);
if (sym != NULL)
return sym;
Earlier in value_maybe_namespace_elt we do this:
sym = cp_lookup_symbol_namespace (namespace_name, name,
get_selected_block (0), VAR_DOMAIN);
That sequence goes like:
value_maybe_namespace_elt
-> cp_lookup_symbol_namespace
-> cp_lookup_symbol_in_namespace
-> lookup_symbol_file
-> cp_lookup_nested_symbol
-> lookup_static_symbol
The call was added in commit 41f62f3939.

https://sourceware.org/ml/gdb-patches/2010-06/msg00664.html

However, this patch, 8dea366bbe,
https://sourceware.org/ml/gdb-patches/2012-11/msg00387.html
augmented lookup_symbol_file to call cp_lookup_nested_symbol
and introduced the redundancy.

This fixes a failure of the test case "complete 'info registers '" in

This patch enhances GDB on GNU/Linux systems in the situation where
we are debugging an inferior that was created from GDB (as opposed
to attached to), by asking the kernel to kill the inferior if GDB
terminates without doing it itself.
This would typically happen when GDB encounters a problem and
crashes, or when it gets killed by an external process. This can
be observed by starting a program under GDB, and then killing
GDB with signal 9. After GDB is killed, the inferior still remains.
This patch also fixes GDBserver similarly.
This fix is conditional on the kernel supporting the PTRACE_O_EXITKILL
feature. On older kernels, the behavior remains unchanged.

already defined.

I also verified by hand that the inferior gets killed when killing
GDB in the "run" case, while the inferior remains in the "attach"
case. Same for GDBserver.

When gdb starts, the lines that appear before the first prompt may get
paginated if the terminal in which the tests are ran is too small (in
terms of rows). These lines include the welcome/license message and
possibly more, such as "Reading symbols from...". Pagination is disabled
right after gdb is started (with "set height 0"), but this output happens
before we are able to set height.
If these lines get paginated, gdb waits for the user to press enter and
the test harness waits for gdb to print its prompt, resulting in a
deadlock.
My first idea was to launch gdb with --quiet. However, some lines are
still printed ("Reading symbols from...", some more stuff when attaching
with --pid, etc).
The proposed solution simply expects that pagination can occur after
starting gdb. If this is the case, it sends a "\n" and loops.
gdb/testsuite/Changelog:
* lib/gdb.exp (default_gdb_start): After starting gdb, loop
as long as we get pagination notifications.
The type of the function pointer PyOS_ReadlineFunctionPointer (part of the
Python C API), which we use, slightly changed starting with Python 3.4. The
signature went from
PyAPI_DATA(char) *(*PyOS_ReadlineFunctionPointer)(FILE *, FILE *, char *);
to
PyAPI_DATA(char) *(*PyOS_ReadlineFunctionPointer)(FILE *, FILE *, const char *);
The parameter that changed is the prompt text.
This commits adjust gdb accordingly by making the prompt_arg parameter
const, as well as the fallouts of that. I needed to rework how
annotations are added to the prompt, since the it is now const. If
annotations are enabled, it will make a copy of the prompt overwrite the
prompt variable that is used throughout the function. Otherwise, no copy
is done and the original prompt_arg value is passed.
I changed the signature of deprecated_readline_hook. I would've changed any
user of it, but it seems like nothing is using it,
Built-tested with python 2.7.x, 3.3.y and 3.4.z.

It seems like using os.getcwdu() here is wrong both for Python 2 and Python 3.
For Python 2, this returns a 'unicode' object, which tries to get concatenated
to a 'str' object in substitute_prompt. The implicit conversion works when the
unicode string contains no accent. When it does contain an accent though,
displaying the prompt results in the following error:
(gdb) set extended-prompt \w
...
File "/home/simark/build/binutils-gdb-python2/gdb/data-directory/python/gdb/prompt.py", line 138, in substitute_prompt
result += str(cmd(arg))
UnicodeEncodeError: 'ascii' codec can't encode character u'\xe9' in position 49: ordinal not in range(128)
When using os.getcwd() instead, it works correctly. I suppose that Python does
the necessary decoding internally.
For Python 3, this method simply does not exist. It works fine with os.getcwd().
gdb/ChangeLog:
* python/lib/gdb/prompt.py (_prompt_pwd): Use os.getcwd() instead of
os.getcwdu().
Currently, when we receive a request to single-step one single thread
(Eg, when single-stepping out of a breakpoint), we use the
PTRACE_SINGLESTEP pthread request, which does single-step
the corresponding thread, but also resumes execution of all
other threads in the inferior.
This causes problems when debugging programs where another thread
receives multiple debug events while trying to single-step a specific
thread out of a breakpoint (with infrun traces turned on):

What happens is that GDB keeps sending requests to resume one specific
thread, and keeps receiving debugging events for other threads.
Things break down when the one of the other threads receives a debug
event for the second time (thread 146 in the example above).
This patch fixes the problem by making sure that only one thread
gets resumed, thus preventing the other threads from generating
an unexpected event.

Trying to print the value of a string whose size is not known at
compile-time before it gets assigned a value can lead to the following
internal error:
(gdb) p my_str
$1 =
/[...]/utils.c:1089: internal-error: virtual memory exhausted.
What happens is that my_str is described as a reference to an array
type whose bounds are dynamic. During the read of that variable's
value (in default_read_var_value), we end up resolving dynamic types
which, for reference types, makes us also resolve the target of that
reference type. This means we resolve our variable to a reference
to an array whose bounds are undefined, and unfortunately very far
appart.
So, when we pass that value to ada-valprint, and in particular to
da_val_print_ref, we eventually try to allocate too large of a buffer
corresponding to the (bogus) size of our array, hence the internal
error.
This patch fixes the problem by adding a size_check before trying
to print the dereferenced value. To perform this check, a function
that was previously specific to ada-lang.c (check_size) gets
exported, and renamed to something less prone to name collisions
(ada_ensure_varsize_limit).

This patch mostly aims at fixing a GDB build failure on 32bit Solaris
systems (Sparc and x86), due to a recent gnulib update adding the
readlink module. But it might also fix related issues when configuring
with --disable-largefile.
A side-effect of the gnulib readlink module addition is that it caused
largefile support to be added as well, and in particular
gnulib/import/m4/largefile.m4 introduced the following new #define in
gnulib's config.in:
| +/* Number of bits in a file offset, on hosts where this is settable. */
| +#undef _FILE_OFFSET_BITS
When defined to 64, it triggers an issue with procfs.h while trying
to build sparc-sol2-nat.c:
| #if !defined(_LP64) && _FILE_OFFSET_BITS == 64
| #error "Cannot use procfs in the large file compilation environment"
| #endif
As it turns out, this is a fairly familiar problem, and one of
the reasons behind ACX_LARGEFILE having been created. In that macro,
we have some code which disables largefile support on solaris hosts:
| sparc-*-solaris*|i[3-7]86-*-solaris*)
| changequote([,])dnl
| # On native 32bit sparc and ia32 solaris, large-file and procfs support
| # are mutually exclusive; and without procfs support, the bfd/ elf module
| # cannot provide certain routines such as elfcore_write_prpsinfo
| # or elfcore_write_prstatus. So unless the user explicitly requested
| # large-file support through the --enable-largefile switch, disable
| # large-file support in favor of procfs support.
| test "${target}" = "${host}" -a "x$plugins" = xno \
| && : ${enable_largefile="no"}
| ;;
But gnulib ignores this fact, and so tries to determine how to
enable large-file support irrespective of whether we want it or not.
This patch fixes the issue by passing --disable-largefile to gnulib's
configure when large-file support in GDB is disabled. This is done
by first enhancing ACX_CONFIGURE_DIR to allow us to pass extra
arguments to be passed to the configure command, and then by modifying
GDB's configure to pass --disable-largefile if large-file support
is disabled.

This fixes the build failure on sparc-solaris. I also verified in
gnulib's config.log file that we pass --disable-largefile in the solaris
case, while we do not in the GNU/Linux case.

That big change after "else" is just reindentation.

GDB is currently broken on all SPARC targets when using GCC 4.9.
When trying to print any local variable:
(gdb) p x
can't compute CFA for this frame
This is related to the fact that the compiler now generates DWARF 4
debugging info by default, and in particular that it now emits
DW_OP_call_frame_cfa, which triggers a limitation in dwarf2_frame_cfa:
/* This restriction could be lifted if other unwinders are known to
compute the frame base in a way compatible with the DWARF
unwinder. */
if (!frame_unwinder_is (this_frame, &dwarf2_frame_unwind)
&& !frame_unwinder_is (this_frame, &dwarf2_tailcall_frame_unwind))
error (_("can't compute CFA for this frame"));
We couldn't append the dwarf2 unwinder to all SPARC targets because
it does not work properly with StackGhost:
https://www.sourceware.org/ml/gdb-patches/2014-07/msg00012.html
We also later discovered that using the DWARF2 unwinder means
using it for computing the function's return address, which
is buggy when it comes to functions returning a struct (where
the return address is saved-pc+12 instead of saved-pc+8).
This is because GCC is emitting the info about the return address
as %o7/%i7 instead of the actual return address. For functions
that have debugging info, we compensate by looking at the function's
return type and add the extra +4, but for function without debug
info, we're stuck.
EricB and I twisted the issue in all the directions we could think of,
and unfortunately couldn't find a way to make it work without
introduction one regression or another.
But, stepping back a little, just removing the restriction seems to work
well for us on all both sparc-elf and {sparc,sparc64}-solaris.
After reviewing the previous discussions about this test, I could
not figure out whether some unwinders were already known to have
incompatible CFAs or if the concern was purely theoretical:
https://www.sourceware.org/ml/gdb-patches/2009-06/msg00191.htmlhttps://www.sourceware.org/ml/gdb-patches/2009-07/msg00570.htmlhttps://www.sourceware.org/ml/gdb-patches/2009-09/msg00027.html
At the moment, we took the approach of trying it out, and see what
happens...
gdb/ChangeLog:
PR backtrace/16215:
* dwarf2-frame.c (dwarf2_frame_cfa): Remove the restriction
the frame unwinder must either be the dwarf2_frame_unwind
or the dwarf2_tailcall_frame_unwind. Verify that this_frame's
stack_addr is valid before calling get_frame_base. Throw
an error if not valid.
Tested on sparc-solaris and sparc-elf with AdaCore's testsuite
(the FSF testsuite crashes all of AdaCore's solaris machines).
Both allocate_value and value_of_variable are guaranteed to return non-NULL.
