Most ports do the same thing in the tail of their mourn routine - call
generic_mourn_inferior+inf_child_maybe_unpush_target.
This factors that out to a convenience function. More could be done,
but this converts only the really obvious ones.
Tested by building GDB on x86_64 Fedora 20, mingw32 and djgpp. The
rest is untested, but I think a patch can't get more obvious.

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
The current target stack is:
- native (Native process)
- exec (Local exec file)
- None (None)
(gdb) run
Starting program: ./a.out
...
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.

This patch does the conversion of to_xfer_partial from
LONGEST (*to_xfer_partial) (struct target_ops *ops,
enum target_object object, const char *annex,
gdb_byte *readbuf, const gdb_byte *writebuf,
ULONGEST offset, ULONGEST len);
to
enum target_xfer_status (*to_xfer_partial) (struct target_ops *ops,
enum target_object object, const char *annex,
gdb_byte *readbuf, const gdb_byte *writebuf,
ULONGEST offset, ULONGEST len, ULONGEST *xfered_len);
It changes to_xfer_partial return the transfer status and the transfered
length by *XFERED_LEN. Generally, the return status has three stats,
- TARGET_XFER_OK,
- TARGET_XFER_EOF,
- TARGET_XFER_E_XXXX,
See the comments to them in 'enum target_xfer_status'. Note that
Pedro suggested not name TARGET_XFER_DONE, as it is confusing,
compared with "TARGET_XFER_OK". We finally name it TARGET_XFER_EOF.
With this change, GDB core can handle unavailable data in a convenient
way.
The rationale behind this change was mentioned here
https://sourceware.org/ml/gdb-patches/2013-10/msg00761.html
Consider an object/value like this:
0 100 150 200 512
DDDDDDDDDDDxxxxxxxxxDDDDDD...DDIIIIIIIIIIII..III
where D is valid data, and xxx is unavailable data, and I is beyond
the end of the object (Invalid). Currently, if we start the
xfer at 0, requesting, say 512 bytes, we'll first get back 100 bytes.
The xfer machinery then retries fetching [100,512), and gets back
TARGET_XFER_E_UNAVAILABLE. That's sufficient when you're either
interested in either having the whole of the 512 bytes available,
or erroring out. But, in this scenario, we're interested in
the data at [150,512). The problem is that the last
TARGET_XFER_E_UNAVAILABLE gives us no indication where to
start the read next. We'd need something like:
get me [0,512) >>>
<<< here's [0,100), *xfered_len is 100, returns TARGET_XFER_OK
get me [100,512) >>> (**1)
<<< [100,150) is unavailable, *xfered_len is 50, return TARGET_XFER_E_UNAVAILABLE.
get me [150,512) >>>
<<< here's [150,200), *xfered_len is 50, return TARGET_XFER_OK.
get me [200,512) >>>
<<< no more data, return TARGET_XFER_EOF.
This naturally implies pushing down the decision of whether
to return TARGET_XFER_E_UNAVAILABLE or something else
down to the target. (Which kinds of leads back to tfile
itself reading from RO memory from file (though we could
export a function in exec.c for that that tfile delegates to,
instead of re-adding the old code).
Beside this change, we also add a macro TARGET_XFER_STATUS_ERROR_P to
check whether a status is an error or not, to stop using "status < 0".
This patch also eliminates the comparison between status and 0.
No target implementations to to_xfer_partial adapts this new
interface. The interface still behaves as before.

This patch constifies the target_ops method to_detach.
This is a small cleanup, but also, I think, a bug-prevention fix,
since gdb already acts as if the "args" argument here was const.
In particular, top.c:quit_force calls kill_or_detach via
iterate_over_inferiors. kill_or_detach calls target_detach, passing
the same argument each time. So, if one of these methods was not
const-correct, then kill_or_detach would change its behavior in a
strange way.
I could not build every target I modified in this patch. I've
inspected them all by hand, though. Many targets do not use the
"args" parameter; a couple pass it to atoi; and a few pass it on to
the to_detach method of the target beneath. The only code that
required a real change was in linux-nat.c, and that only needed the
introduction of a temporary variable for const-correctness.

- The Mach exception/signals escaped the TARGET_ -> GDB_ prefix change
done a while ago, but there's no real reason for that. I grepped
for TARGET_EXC and fixed all found, which unsurprisingly, means
darwin-nat.c needed fixing. I think the change there is as obvious
and trivial as it can get, so I'd be quite surprised if this broke
anything there somehow.
- GDB_SIGNAL_LAST's description string was unnecessarily inconsistent
with the enum name.

MAXPATHLEN uses. It's no longer necessary to include sys/param.h
(supposedly, I can't check all ports touched here) for MAXPATHLEN.
Don't remove sys/param.h from GDB's configure.ac, as later tests in
the file use HAVE_SYS_PARAM_H checks.
Tested on x86_64 Fedora 17.
Also cross-built for --host=i686-w64-mingw32, and --host=i586-pc-msdosdjgpp.

This patch avoids a warning when resuming the execution of a program
that we attached to. For instance:
(gdb) attach 29989
(gdb) continue
Continuing.
warning: Mach error at "/[...]/darwin-nat.c:738" in function
"darwin_resume_thread": (os/kern) failure (0x5)
The warning is relatively harmless, but worrisome for the average
user. The warning comes from the fact that darwin_wait recorded
that the fake stop event corresponding to the suspend action was
caused by the main thread being suspended on a SIGTRAP. As a result
of this, when resuming the program's execution, we try to resume
the thread's execution as well. This is where the issue occurs,
as the thread was not in fact suspended, thus triggering the warning.
gdb/ChangeLog:
* darwin-nat.c (darwin_setup_fake_stop_event): New function.
(darwin_attach): Adjust using darwin_setup_fake_stop_event.
There were many cases were we make a system call which could fail
due to reasons outside of the debugger control. We should handle
these situations a little more gracefully than triggering an
internal error.
gdb/ChangeLog:
* darwin-nat.c (darwin_mourn_inferior): Replace call to
gdb_assert by call to MACH_CHECK_ERROR.
(darwin_attach_pid): Raise an error rather than a failed
assertion when various system calls failed. Report a warning
instead of raising a failed assertion when PREV_NOT is not NULL
after call to mach_port_request_notification.
(darwin_ptrace_me): Raise an error rather than a failed
assertion when read returns nonzero.
gdb/ChangeLog:
* darwin-nat.c (darwin_read_write_inferior): Change types
of parameters rdaddr and wraddr to "gdb_byte *". Change type
of copy_count to "mach_msg_type_number_t".
(darwin_read_dyld_info): Change type of parameter
rdaddr to "gdb_byte *".
Two modifications:
1. The addition of 2013 to the copyright year range for every file;
2. The use of a single year range, instead of potentially multiple
year ranges, as approved by the FSF.
It might not be a debugger bug that caused the PT_KILL ptrace operation
to fail. So emit a warning instead, and try to continue.
This patch also tries to handle the case where ptrace return -1,
but left errno set to zero. According to the ptrace man page,
it is possible for some ptrace operations to return -1 in non-error
situations, and to detect those situations, it explains that errno
should be set prior to calling ptrace, and then checked again after.
gdb/ChangeLog:
* darwin-nat.c (darwin_ptrace): Add documentation.
Set errno to zero before calling ptrace. If ptrace returns
-1 and errno is zero, then change then return zero.
(darwin_kill_inferior): Issue a warning instead of triggering
a failed assertion when the PT_KILL ptrace operations returned
nonzero.
When trying to detach from an inferior that we start from the debugger,
GDB prints the following warning:
(gdb) detach
Detaching from program: /[...]/foo, process 74593
warning: Mach error at "/[...]/darwin-nat.c:445" in function "darwin_resume_inferior": (os/kern) failure (0x5)
The warning comes from the following code in darwin_detach:
darwin_resume_inferior (inf);
This is because the process has already been resumed by the
PT_DETACH ptrace operation that has just been performed.
On the other hand, when trying to detach from an inferior that
was started outside of debugger control (thus after having attached
the debugger to that inferior), things go smoothly. That's because
we don't use ptrace to control the process in that case, and so
the resume is perfectly justified.
This patch makes sure that we resume the inferior during the detach
only when we're NOT using ptrace.
gdb/ChangeLog:
* darwin-nat.c (darwin_detach): Call darwin_resume_inferior
only when inf->private->no_ptrace.
