This patch syncs our upstream copy of readline from version 6.2 to the
latest version, 7.0 alpha (released July 10 2015).
I essentially copied what was done the last time readline was synced,
when Jan updated to readline 6.2 in 2011:
http://sourceware.org/ml/gdb-patches/2011-05/msg00003.html
Procedure:
1. I extracted the readline-7.0-alpha tarball on top of readline/.
2. I deleted all the new files under doc/ that were deliberately omitted
before.
3. I regenerated readline/configure and readline/examples/rlfe/configure
using autoconf 2.64. No other configure files need regenerating.
4. I updated the function gdb_printable_part in completer.c with a
trivial change made to the readline function it is based off of,
printable_part in readline/complete.c. There is more work to be done in
completer.c to sync it with readline/complete.c, but it is non-trivial
and should probably be done separately anyway.
Local patches that had to be reapplied:
None. readline 7.0 alpha contains all of our local readline
patches.
New files in readline/:
colors.{c,h}
examples/{hist_erasedups,hist_purgecmd,rl-callbacktest,rlbasic}.c
parse-colors.{c,h}
readline.pc.in
configure.ac
Deleted files in readline/:
configure.in
Regressions:
After the sync there is one testsuite regression, the test
"signal SIGINT" in gdb.gdb/selftest.exp which now FAILs. Previously,
the readline 6.2 SIGINT handler would temporarily reinstall the
underlying application's SIGINT handler and immediately re-raise SIGINT
so that the orginal handler gets invoked. But now (since readline 6.3)
its SIGINT handler does not re-raise SIGINT or directly invoke the
original handler; it now sets a flag marking that SIGINT was raised, and
waits until readline explicitly has control to call the application's
SIGINT handler. Anyway, because SIGINT is no longer re-raised from
within readline's SIGINT handler, doing "signal SIGINT" with a stopped
inferior gdb process will no longer resume and then immediately stop the
process (since there is no 2nd SIGINT to immediately catch). Instead,
the inferior gdb process will now just print "Quit" and continue to run.
So with this commit, this particular test case is adjusted to reflect
this change in behavior (we now have to send a 2nd SIGINT manually to
stop it).
Aside from this one testsuite regression, I personally noticed no
regression in user-visible behavior. Though I only tested on x86_64
and on i686 Debian Stretch.
Getting this kind of change in at the start of the GDB 7.11 development
cycle will allow us to get a lot of passive testing from developers and
from bleeding-edge users.

The gdb_skip_xml_test procedure explicitly says that it cannot be
invoked when GDB is running. However, the testcase for "catch
syscall" is wrongly doing that, which is causing a failure on
native-extended-gdbserver tests:

non-glibc libcs, e.g., Bionic (if it ever gets a s390 port...).

I have patches that:
1 - make the CLI print stop info from a normal_stop observer, like MI
does.
2 - happen to change the order in which the Python and CLI/TUI
normal_stop observers are installed.
With those in place, py-events.exp regresses like shown below [1],
because the Python stop events are output before CLI prints stop info,
instead of after, and the test doesn't expect that.
With the same Python hooks, the order in which MI and Python events is
emited today is already undefined, because MI also uses the
normal_stop observer for output. I see no reason that we should in
general define the order observers, interpreters and scripting
languages get their turn at being notified of these events. So this
patch makes the test cope with Python->CLI output order too.
Tested on x86_64 Fedora 20.

Building in C++ mode issues ~40 warnings like this:
../../src/gdb/linux-nat.c: In function ‘int linux_handle_extended_wait(lwp_info*, int, int)’:
../../src/gdb/linux-nat.c:2016:51: warning: invalid conversion from ‘int’ to ‘__ptrace_request’ [-fpermissive]
ptrace (PTRACE_GETEVENTMSG, pid, 0, &new_pid);
The issue is that in glibc, ptrace's first parameter is an enum.
That's not a problem if we pick the PTRACE_XXX requests from
sys/ptrace.h, as those will be values of the corresponding enum.
However, we have fallback definitions for PTRACE_XXX symbols when the
system headers miss them (such as PTRACE_GETEVENTMSG above), and those
are plain integer constants. E.g., nat/linux-ptrace.h:
#define PTRACE_GETEVENTMSG 0x4201
One idea would be to fix this by defining those fallbacks like:
-#define PTRACE_GETEVENTMSG 0x4201
+#define PTRACE_GETEVENTMSG ((enum __ptrace_request) 0x4201)
However, while glibc's ptrace uses enum __ptrace_request for first
parameter:
extern long int ptrace (enum __ptrace_request __request, ...) __THROW;
other libc's, like e.g., Android's bionic do not -- in that case, the
first parameter is int:
long ptrace(int request, pid_t pid, void * addr, void * data);
So the fix I came up is to make configure/ptrace.m4 also detect the
type of the ptrace's first parameter and defin PTRACE_TYPE_ARG1, as
already does the for parameters 3-4, and then simply wrap ptrace with
a macro that casts the first argument to the detected type. (I'm
leaving adding a nicer wrapper for when we drop building in C).
While this adds the wrapper, GNU/Linux files won't use it until the
next patch, which makes all native GNU/Linux files include
gdb_ptrace.h.

Nowadays, when --wrapper is used, GDBserver skips extra traps/stops
in the wrapper program, and stops at the first instruction of the
program to be debugged. However, GDBserver created target description
in the first stop of inferior, and the executable of the inferior
is the wrapper program rather than the program to be debugged. In
this way, the target description can be wrong if the architectures
of wrapper program and program to be debugged are different. This
is shown by some fails in gdb.server/wrapper.exp on buildbot.
We are testing i686-linux GDB (Fedora-i686) on an x86_64-linux box
(fedora-x86-64-4) in buildbot, such configuration causes fails in
gdb.server/wrapper.exp like this:
spawn /home/gdb-buildbot-2/fedora-x86-64-4/fedora-i686/build/gdb/testsuite/../../gdb/gdbserver/gdbserver --once --wrapper env TEST=1 -- :2346 /home/gdb-buildbot-2/fedora-x86-64-4/fedora-i686/build/gdb/testsuite/outputs/gdb.server/wrapper/wrapper

(gdb) FAIL: gdb.server/wrapper.exp: setting breakpoint at marker
See https://sourceware.org/ml/gdb-testers/2015-q3/msg01541.html
In this case, program to be debugged ("wrapper") is 32-bit but wrapper
program ("/usr/bin/env") is 64-bit, so GDBserver gets the 64-bit
target description instead of 32-bit.
The root cause of this problem is that GDBserver creates target
description too early, and the rationale of fix could be creating
target description once the GDBserver skips extra traps and inferior
stops at the first instruction of the program we want to debug. IOW,
when GDBserver skips extra traps, the inferior's tdesc is NULL, and
mywait and its callees shouldn't use inferior's tdesc, so in this
patch, we skip code that requires register access, see changes in
linux_resume_one_lwp_throw and need_step_over_p.
In linux_low_filter_event, if target description isn't initialised and
GDBserver attached the process, we create target description immediately,
because GDBserver don't have to skip extra traps for attach, IOW, it
makes no sense to use --attach and --wrapper together. Otherwise, the
process is launched by GDBserver, we keep the status pending, and return.
After GDBserver skipped extra traps in start_inferior, we call a
target_ops hook arch_setup to initialise target description there.

Nowadays, we set proc->priv->new_inferior to 1 inside linux_add_process,
and new_inferior is used as a flag to initialise target description later.
linux_add_process is used for the three cases, fork/vfork event
(handle_extended_wait), run the program (linux_create_inferior), and
attach to the process (linux_attach). In the first case, the child's
target description is copied from parent's, so we don't need to initialise
target description again later, which means we don't need to set
proc->priv->new_inferior to 1 in this case. For the rest of two cases,
we need this flag.
This patch move the code setting proc->priv->new_inferior to 1 inside
linux_add_process to linux_create_inferior and linux_attach. No
functionality is changed.

My patch series will affect the code starting inferior in GDBserver

GBDserver receives 'R' packet, and this patch is to add a test
for this path, and see how --wrapper option works when the process
is restarted.

Remote debugging from host 127.0.0.1^M
Process /scratch/yao/gdb/build-git/x86_64/gdb/testsuite/gdb.server/ext-restart created; pid = 21445^M
GDBserver restarting^M
Process /scratch/yao/gdb/build-git/x86_64/gdb/testsuite/gdb.server/ext-restart created; pid = 21446^M
Killing process(es): 21446
we first start process 21445(0x53c5), kill it and restart a new process
21446. However, in the gdb output above [1], we can see that the reply
of qC is still the old process id rather than the new one. Looks
general_thread isn't up to date after GDBserver receives R packet.
This patch is to update general_thread after call start_inferior.

We didn't test --wrapper option in extended-remote before, this patch
is to add a test case for it. In order to pass option --wrapper to
gdbserver in extended-remote, I add arg in gdbserver_start_extended,
and its default value is "", so that other places use
gdbserver_start_extended don't have to be updated.

For the case of MIPS n64 target and 32-bit host, the computation of
the DT_MIPS_RLD_MAP_REL tag involves sdyn->output_section->vma +
sdyn->output_offset (64-bit) being added to b (32-bit host pointer),
so losing the high part and resulting in an incorrect
DT_MIPS_RLD_MAP_REL tag, and all dynamically linked glibc tests
failing for n64. This patch fixes this (spot-tested with glibc tests;
however, I don't have a self-contained testcase for this bug).
* elfxx-mips.c (_bfd_mips_elf_finish_dynamic_sections)
<DT_MIPS_RLD_MAP_REL>: Add target address to host address
difference, not to host pointer.

The ltpy_get_all_source_lines function, use to implement
the gdb.LineTable.source_lines method, returns a list:
source_list = PyDict_Keys (source_dict);
return source_list;
This patch fixes the function's documentation as well as its docstring
to say that it returns a list rather than a FrozenSet.
gdb/ChangeLog:
* py-linetable.c (ltpy_get_all_source_lines): Adjust function
documentation to say that it returns a list rather than

"source_line" entry.
Tested on x86_64-linux.
When a dynamic array type contains a typedef-wrapped array, an assertion
failure occurs during type resolution. This is what happens in the
following Ada case:
type Rec_Type is record
I : Integer;
B : Boolean;
end record;
type Vec_Type is array (1 .. 4) of Rec_Type;
type Array_Type is array (Positive range <>) of Vec_Type;
If users try to print or even pass to an inferior call a variable A of
type Array_Type, GDB will raise an error:
(gdb) print a
../../src/gdb/gdbtypes.c:1807: internal-error:
resolve_dynamic_array: Assertion `TYPE_CODE (type) ==
TYPE_CODE_ARRAY' failed.
A problem internal to GDB has been detected,
further debugging may prove unreliable.
Quit this debugging session? (y or n)
What happens is that during dynamic array type resolution, we first peel
TYPE_CODE_TYPEDEF layers wrapping the array element type and check if
its type is itself TYPE_CODE_ARRAY. If it is, we pass the
typedef-wrapped type to a recursive call to resolve_dynamic_array
whereas this function expects only TYPE_CODE_ARRAY types.
This patch makes it pass the peeled type to the recursive call so that
type resolution can continue smoothly.
gdb/ChangeLog:
* gdbtypes.c (resolve_dynamic_array): Pass the peeled element
type to the recursive call instead of the original (maybe
TYPE_CODE_TYPEDEF) type.

Nowadays aarch64_linux_can_use_hw_breakpoint always return one, but it
can be smarter, say, if GDB knows target doesn't support HW watchpoint
or breakpoint because HW watchpoint/breakpoint is disabled in linux
kernel, for example, it can safely return zero.

* aarch64-linux-nat.c (aarch64_linux_can_use_hw_breakpoint): If
TYPE is watchpoint, return zero if aarch64_num_wp_regs is zero.
If TYPE is breakpoint, return zero if arch64_num_bp_regs is zero.
This fixes a segfault when macro definitions end on the last line of a
file, and that line isn't properly terminated with a newline. gas
used to throw away the last line in cases like this, whereas in other
cases gas added the missing newline. So I've also made gas
consistently provide a missing newline.

* input-scrub.c (input_scrub_next_buffer): Rearrange and simplify

partial_where is NULL. Adjust buffer size for extra char.
(input_scrub_push, input_scrub_begin): Adjust buffer size here too.

Bogus assembly can hit an assertion in opd_entry_value when the symbol
referenced by a function descriptor is undefined. Worse, the code
after the assert copies unitialised memory to return the code section.
This uninitialised pointer can later be dereferencd, possibly causing
a linker segmentation fault.
* elf64-ppc.c (opd_entry_value): Remove assertion. Instead,
return -1 if symbol referenced is not defined. Tidy.
