Consider the following declarations:
type Int_Access is access Integer;
type Record_Type is record
IA : Int_Access;
end record;
R : Record_Type;
Printing the type name of "R.IA" yields:
(gdb) whatis r.ia
type = access integer
It should be:
(gdb) whatis r.ia
type = bar.int_access
Looking at the debugging info, field "r.ia" is defined as
a typedef which has the name of the field type:
.uleb128 0x3 # (DIE (0x4e) DW_TAG_typedef)
.long .LASF4 # DW_AT_name: "bar__int_access"
.long 0x8b # DW_AT_type
... with the typedef's target type being an anonymous pointer
type:
.uleb128 0x7 # (DIE (0x8b) DW_TAG_pointer_type)
.byte 0x8 # DW_AT_byte_size
.long 0x91 # DW_AT_type
What happens here is that a couple of function in ada-lang.c
always start by stripping all typedef layers when handling
struct fields, with the effect of making us lose the type name
in this case.
We did not understand this at the time the code was written,
but typedefs should be stripped only when we know we do not
need them. So this patch, adjust the code to avoid the stripping
while handling the fields, and adds it back in the lone place
which handles the result of processing and didn't know how to
handle typedefs struct fields yet.

Author: Sergio Durigan Junior <sergiodj@redhat.com>
Date: Mon Apr 13 02:40:08 2015 -0400
Rename variable "addr" to "coredump_var_addr" in gdb.base/coredump-filter.exp
Pedro pointed out that this fix was not complete, because the
testsuite could be run several times in a row (for example), which
means that it is not enough to just make the variable name unique: it
also needs to be cleared out if it is global.
This commit does that. It is actually just a commit made to make
things totally correct; this specific test does not fail if you run it
several times in a row.

When we set up st_name for output section name in elf_fake_sections, we
don't know if the compressed DWARF debug section will be smaller. We may
end up with compressed DWARF debug sections which are bigger than the

debug section to _bfd_elf_assign_file_positions_for_non_load which will
compress the output debug section. We also postpone placement of shstrtab
section after DWARF debug sections have been compressed. The net effect
is .shstrtab section is now placed after .symtab and .strtab sections.

Currently, against gdbserver, interrupt.exp occasionaly fails like
this:
ERROR: Process no longer exists
UNRESOLVED: gdb.base/interrupt.exp: send end of file
The problem is that we see gdbserver exiting before we match gdb's
output:
expect: does "\r\n\r\nChild exited with status 0\r\nGDBserver exiting\r\n" (spawn_id exp8) match regular expression "end of file"? Gate "end of file"? gate=no
expect: read eof
expect: set expect_out(spawn_id) "exp8"
expect: set expect_out(buffer) "\r\n\r\nChild exited with status 0\r\nGDBserver exiting\r\n"
Fix this by removing $inferior_spawn_id from the set of spawn ids
expect is watching as soon as we see the "end of file" string out of
the inferior spawn id, using an indirect spawn id list.
Tested on x86-64 Fedora 20, native and gdbserver (both target remote
and extended-remote).
gdb/testsuite/ChangeLog:
2015-04-23 Pedro Alves <palves@redhat.com>
* gdb.base/interrupt.exp: Use an indirect spawn id list holding
$inferior_spawn_id instead of $inferior_spawn_id directly. On

* gdb.base/interrupt.exp: Rename saw_eof to saw_end_of_file.
Since silent handling of eof is usually the wrong thing to do, this
patch makes gdb_test_multiple handle it for all $any_spawn_id.
Currently, against gdbserver, interrupt.exp occasionaly fails like
this:
FAIL: gdb.base/interrupt.exp: send end of file
gdb.log with expect debug output enabled shows:
expect: does "\r\n\r\nChild exited with status 0\r\nGDBserver exiting\r\n" (spawn_id exp8) match regular expression "end of file"? Gate "end of file"? gate=no
expect: read eof
expect: set expect_out(spawn_id) "exp8"
expect: set expect_out(buffer) "\r\n\r\nChild exited with status 0\r\nGDBserver exiting\r\n"
FAIL: gdb.base/interrupt.exp: send end of file
Note "expect: read eof" for spawn_id=exp8. exp8 is
inferior_spawn_id/gdbserver_spawn_id. That means
expect/gdb_test_multiple saw gdbserver exit before we got the expected
gdb output. Since there's no explicit pattern for "eof", expect (and
thus gdb_test_multiple) just returns.
After this commit, we get instead:
ERROR: Process no longer exists
UNRESOLVED: gdb.base/interrupt.exp: send end of file
Note that before we still got an FAIL because $saw_inferior_exit is 0
when we get to:
gdb_assert { $saw_eof && $saw_inferior_exit } $msg
Fixing the fail (now unresolved) will be the subject of a separate

Certain conversion operations as well as vfpclassp{d,s} are ambiguous

In readline 6.3, the semantics of SIGWINCH handling has changed.
When a SIGWINCH signal is raised, readline's rl_sigwinch_handler() now
does not immediately call rl_resize_terminal(). Instead it sets a flag
that is checked by RL_CHECK_SIGNALS() at a point where readline has
control, and calls rl_resize_terminal() if said flag is set.
This change is item (c) in https://cnswww.cns.cwru.edu/php/chet/readline/CHANGES
c. Fixed a bug that caused readline to try and run code to modify its idea
of the screen size in a signal handler context upon receiving a SIGWINCH.
This change in behavior is important to us because TUI's
tui_sigwinch_handler() relies on the assumption that by the time it's
called, readline will have updated its knowledge of the terminal
dimensions via rl_resize_terminal(). Since this assumption no longer
holds true, TUI's SIGWINCH handling does not work correctly with
readline 6.3.
To fix this issue this patch makes TUI explicitly call
rl_resize_terminal() in tui_async_resize_screen() at the point where
current terminal dimensions are needed. (We could call it in
tui_sigwinch_handler too, but since readline avoids doing it, we are
probably safer off avoiding to call it in signal handler context as
well.) After this change, SIGWINCH handling continues to work properly
with both readline 6.2 and 6.3.
Since we no longer need it, we could now explicitly disable readline's
SIGWINCH handler by setting rl_catch_sigwinch to zero early on in the
program startup but I can't seem to find a good spot to place this
assignment (the first call to rl_initialize() occurs in
tui_initialize_readline() so the assignment should occur before then),
and the handler is harmless anyway.
gdb/ChangeLog:
* tui/tui-win.c (tui_async_resize_screen): Call
rl_resize_terminal().
I didn't commit this with the relro and powerpc .TOC. changes,
thinking that something should be done about the odd result of
.shstrtab appearing in PT_GNU_RELRO. On looking at it further,
I think that changing readelf would be wrong, so let's just
accept the results. Real binaries will always have other sections
past .got, so PT_GNU_RELRO won't finish past the end of loaded
sections.

This error occurs because when handle_output_debug_string processes a Cygwin
signal message, it re-writes current_event.dwThreadId to reflect the thread that
the signal will be delivered to, which can be different to the thread reporting
the signal.
Altering current_event.dwThreadId() will cause ContinueDebugEvent() to be
applied to the wrong thread and fail.
So, rather than re-writing the thread id in current_event, use the thread
id by returning it.

[hangs]
This is due to a defect in the way Cygwin signals are handled: When
handle_output_debug_string processes a Cygwin signal message, it re-writes
current_event.dwThreadId to reflect the thread that the signal will be delivered
to.
Subsequently, the call to ContinueDebugEvent will fail, because we're trying to
resume the wrong thread. GDB is then stuck waiting forever for another event
that will never come.
This patch doesn't fix the problem, it just adds appropriate error handling.
Using error() seems appropriate here, if ContinueDebugEvent() fails, the
inferior is in an unknown state and we will probably not be debugging it
anymore.
