Consider the following declarations:
type Packed_Array is array (Natural range <>) of Boolean;
pragma Pack (Packed_Array);
function Make (H, L : Natural) return Packed_Array is
begin
return (H .. L => False);
end Make;
A1 : Packed_Array := Make (1, 2);
A2 : Packed_Array renames A1;
One possible DWARF translation for A2 is:
<3><1e4>: Abbrev Number: 21 (DW_TAG_variable)
<1e5> DW_AT_name : a2
<1ea> DW_AT_type : <0x1d9>
<3><1d9>: Abbrev Number: 22 (DW_TAG_const_type)
<1da> DW_AT_type : <0x1de>
<3><1de>: Abbrev Number: 23 (DW_TAG_reference_type)
<1e0> DW_AT_type : <0x1a3>
<3><1a3>: Abbrev Number: 17 (DW_TAG_array_type)
<1a4> DW_AT_name : foo__Ta1S___XP1
<1a8> DW_AT_GNAT_descriptive_type: <0x16b>
<3><16b>: Abbrev Number: 6 (DW_TAG_typedef)
<16c> DW_AT_name : foo__Ta1S
<172> DW_AT_type : <0x176>
<3><176>: Abbrev Number: 17 (DW_TAG_array_type)
<177> DW_AT_name : foo__Ta1S
<17b> DW_AT_GNAT_descriptive_type: <0x223>
Here, foo__Ta1S___XP1 is the type used for the code generation while
foo__Ta1S is the source-level type. Both form a valid GNAT encoding for
a packed array type.
Trying to print A2 (1) can make GDB crash. This is because A2 is defined
as a reference to a GNAT encoding for a packed array. When decoding
constrained packed arrays, the ada_coerce_ref subprogram follows
references and returns a fixed type from the target type, peeling
the GNAT encoding for packed arrays. The remaining code assumes that
the resulting type is still such an encoding while we only have
a standard GDB array type, hence the crash:
arr = ada_coerce_ref (arr);
[...]
type = decode_constrained_packed_array_type (value_type (arr));
decode_constrained_packed_array_type assumes that its argument is
such an encoding. From its front comment:
/* The array type encoded by TYPE, where
ada_is_constrained_packed_array_type (TYPE). */
This patch simply replaces the call to ada_coerce_ref with a call
to coerce_ref in order to avoid prematurely transforming
the packed array type as a side-effect. This way, the remaining code
will always work with a GNAT encoding.

Looking at target_terminal_inferior etc. in async mode, I realized
that the naming of the terminal_inferior, terminal_ours,
etc. functions doesn't really give a clue that they're meant for the
native target only. This patch renames them. There's already
child_terminal_info using the child_ prefix, and, they're most
prominently installed by inf-child.c, so I went with the child_
prefix. I dropped "inferior" from a couple to make the name match the
corresponding target method.
Tested on x86_64 Fedora 17, and cross built for mingw. I didn't test
gnu-nat.c, but I think the change is as obvious as it gets. I grepped
the tree looking for other potential spots that would need adjustment
but this is all I found. If something breaks, it should be trivial to
fix.

I find the mention of "Unix" unnecessary (and really slightly a lie)
on GNU/Linux in a couple of places:
(gdb) maint print target-stack
The current target stack is:
- multi-thread (multi-threaded child process.)
- child (Unix child process)
- exec (Local exec file)
- None (None)
(gdb) help target child
Unix child process (started by the "run" command).
(gdb) target child
Use the "run" command to start a Unix child process.
It's also odd that e.g., the Windows port says "Unix" in reaction to
"target child" (it was already that way before Windows used
inf-child.c):
(gdb) target child
Use the "run" command to start a Unix child process.
(gdb)
So drop "Unix", going in the direction of saying mostly the same on
all native targets:
(gdb) maint print target-stack
The current target stack is:
- multi-thread (multi-threaded child process.)
- - child (Unix child process)
+ - child (Child process)
- exec (Local exec file)
- None (None)
(gdb) help target child
- Unix child process (started by the "run" command).

All execution commands currently have this pattern:

This patch updates arm native support for hwbreak-/watchpoints to enable
support for hwbreak-/watchpoints across fork/vfork. This involves changes to
hwbreak-/watchpoint insertion mechanism to the modern way, by marking debug
registers as needing update, but only really updating them on resume, which is
necessary for supporting watchpoints in non-stop mode. This also updates a
previously maintained per thread hwbreak-/watchpoint cache to a per process
cache which allows target specific code to come in sync with gdb-linux calls to
threads create/destroy and process fork/exit hooks.

A patch in the target cleanup series caused a regression when using
record with target-async. Version 4 of the patch is here:
https://sourceware.org/ml/gdb-patches/2014-03/msg00159.html
The immediate problem is that record supplies to_can_async_p and
to_is_async_p methods, but does not supply a to_async method. So,
when target-async is set, record claims to support async -- but if the
underlying target does not support async, then the to_async method
call will end up in that method's default implementation, namely
tcomplain.
This worked previously because the record target used to provide a
to_async method; one that (erroneously, only at push time) checked the
other members of the target stack, and then simply dropped to_async
calls in the "does not implement async" case.
My first thought was to simply drop tcomplain as the default for
to_async. This works, but Pedro pointed out that the only reason
record has to supply to_can_async_p and to_is_async_p is that these
default to using the find_default_run_target machinery -- and these
defaults are only needed by "run" and "attach".
So, a nicer solution presents itself: change run and attach to
explicitly call into the default run target when needed; and change
to_is_async_p and to_can_async_p to default to "return 0". This makes
the target stack simpler to use and lets us remove the method
implementations from record. This is also in harmony with other plans
for the target stack; namely trying to reduce the impact of
find_default_run_target. This approach makes it clear that
find_default_is_async_p is not needed -- it is asking whether a target
that may not even be pushed is actually async, which seems like a
nonsensical question.
While an improvement, this approach proved to introduce the same bug
when using the core target. Looking a bit deeper, the issue is that
code in "attach" and "run" may need to use either the current target
stack or the default run target -- but different calls into the target
API in those functions could wind up querying different targets.
This new patch makes the target to use more explicit in "run" and
"attach". Then these commands explicitly make the needed calls
against that target. This ensures that a single target is used for
all relevant operations. This lets us remove a couple find_default_*
functions from various targets, including the dummy target. I think
this is a decent understandability improvement.
One issue I see with this patch is that the new calls in "run" and
"attach" are not very much like the rest of the target API. I think
fundamentally this is due to bad factoring in the target API, which
may need to be fixed for multi-target. Tackling that seemed ambitious
for a regression fix.
While working on this I noticed that there don't seem to be any test
cases that involve both target-async and record, so this patch changes
break-precsave.exp to add some. It also changes corefile.exp to add
some target-async tests; these pass with current trunk and with this
patch applied, but fail with the v1 patch.
This patch differs from v4 in that it moves initialization of
to_can_async_p and to_supports_non_stop into inf-child, adds some
assertions to complete_target_initialization, and adds some comments
to target.h.
Built and regtested on x86-64 Fedora 20.

On PPC64, 'func' and 'main' are function descriptors and don't point
to the actual code. Thus the usage of these symbols in the DWARF
assembler source was broken. The patch introduces new labels
func_start and func_end for this purpose.
A "side effect" of the migration to Dwarf::assemble is that the DWARF
address size is now automatically adjusted to the target architecture.
The original assembler source hard-coded the DWARF address size to 4,
even on 64-bit architectures. This address size mismatch caused a
test case failure on s390x due to a wrong result from DW_OP_deref.
Now that prepare_for_testing etc. can cope with absolute path names,
this can be exploited for test cases with generated source files.
This is just to simplify the code and shouldn't cause any functional
change.
