When handling absolute relocations for global symbols bind within the
shared object, AArch64 will generate one dynamic RELATIVE relocation,
but won't apply the value for this absolution relocations at static
linking stage. This is different from AArch64 gold linker and x86-64.
This is not a bug as AArch64 is RELA, there is only guarantee that
relocation addend is placed in the relocation entry. But some
system softwares originally writen for x86-64 might assume AArch64
bfd linker gets the same behavior as x86-64, then they could take
advantage of this buy skipping those RELATIVE dynamic relocations
if the load address is the same as the static linking address.
This patch makes AArch64 BFD linker applies absolution relocations at
static linking stage for scenario described above. Meanwhile old AArch64
android loader has a bug (PR19163) which relies on current linker behavior
as a workaround, so the same option --no-apply-dynamic-relocs added.
GDB's use of --dynamic-list to only export the proc-service symbols is
broken due to Python's "python-config --ldflags" saying we should link
with -export-dynamic, causing us to export _all_ extern symbols
anyway. On Fedora 23:
$ python-config --ldflags
-lpython2.7 -lpthread -ldl -lutil -lm -Xlinker -export-dynamic
$ python3.4-config --ldflags
-L/usr/lib64 -lpython3.4m -lpthread -ldl -lutil -lm -Xlinker -export-dynamic
Having GDB export all its symbols leads to issues such as PR gdb/16818
(GDB crashes when using name for target remote hostname:port), where a
GDB symbol unintentionally preempts a symbol in one of the NSS modules
glibc loads into the process. NSS modules should not define symbols
outside the implementation namespace or the relevant standards, but,
alas, that's a longstanding and hard to fix issue. See libc-alpha
discussion at:
[symbol name space issues with NSS modules]
https://sourceware.org/ml/libc-alpha/2016-04/msg00130.html
Python should instead be either using GCC's symbol visibility feature
or -Wl,--dynamic-list as well, to only export Python API symbols, but,
it doesn't. There are bugs open upstream for that:
[Use -Wl,--dynamic-list=x.list, not -Xlinker -export-dynamic]
http://bugs.python.org/issue10112
[Use GCC visibility attrs in PyAPI_*]
http://bugs.python.org/issue11410
But that's taking a long while to resolve.
I thought of working around this Python issue by making GDB build with
-fvisibility=hidden, as Jan suggests in Python issue 10112, as then
Python's "-Xlinker -export-dynamic" has no effect. However, that
would need to be done in the whole source tree (bfd, libiberty, etc.),
and I think that would break GCC plugins, as I believe those have
access to all of GCCs symbols, by "design". So we'd need a new
configure switch, or have the libraries in the tree detect which of
GCC or GDB is being built, but that doesn't work, because the answer
can be "both" with combined builds...
So this patch instead works around Python's bug, by simply sed'ing
away "-Xlinker -export-dynamic" from the result of python-config.py
--ldflags, making -Wl,--dynamic-list work again as it used to. It's
ugly, but so is the bug...
Note that if -Wl,--dynamic-list doesn't work, we always link with
-rdynamic, so static Python should still work.

This test seems to work with both native-gdbserver and
native-extended-gdbserver, so I removed the remote check.
When running with native-gdbserver (a stub-like target), detach makes
gdbserver stop and gdb disconnect. runto_main just spawns a brand new
gdbserver. So it tests the exact same thing twice. It doesn't hurt
though.
With native-extended-gdbserver, the test is probably a bit more useful
(and similar to native). It tests running/detaching twice using the
same gdb/gdbserver instances, since with extended-remote, you can
detach/attach/run all you want, unlike with remote.
gdb/testsuite/ChangeLog:
* gdb.base/detach.exp: Remove is_remote check.
The comment says that we can't use runto_main here becore it doesn't
know how to handle annotation. Instead, the test puts a breakpoint at
main and calls run by hand. Therefore, it can't work with stub targets,
since they can't "run". The check should be then changed to check the
use_gdb_stub variable instead of [is_remote target].
But as an alternative, we can just use runto_main and enable annotations
after, since the "run to main" part is not really part of what we want
to test.
I also removed the "set test..." line that is unused.

I am sending this fix on behalf of Par Olsson, as a follow-up of this
one:
https://www.sourceware.org/ml/gdb-patches/2015-10/msg00196.html
This problem is exposed when enabling/disabling fast tracepoints on big
endian machines. The flag is defined as an int8_t, but is written from
gdbserver as an integer (usually 32 bits). When the agent code reads it
as an int8_t, it only considers the most significant byte, which is
always 0.
Also, we were writing 32 bits in an 8 bits field, so the write would
overflow, but since the following bytes are padding (the next field is
an uint64_t), it luckily didn't cause any issue on little endian
systems.
The fix was originally tested on ARM big endian systems, but I don't
have access to such a system. However, thanks to Marcin's PowerPC fast
tracepoint patches and gcc110 (big endian Power7) on the gcc compile
farm, I was able to reproduce the problem, test the fix and write a
test (the following patch).

YYYY-MM-DD Par Olsson <par.olsson@windriver.com>
* tracepoint.c (write_inferior_int8): New function.
(cmd_qtenable_disable): Write enable flag using
write_inferior_int8.
Some fast tracepoints tests make sure that the in-process agent library
is properly loaded, by searching for the library name in "info
sharedlibrary".
Originally, it would search for the full path. Since patch "Make ftrace
tests work with remote targets" [1], the "runtime" location of the IPA,
in the standard output directory, is not the same as the original
location, in the gdbserver build directory. Therefore, the patch
changed the checks:
gdb_test "info sharedlibrary" ".*${libipa}.*" "IPA loaded"
to
gdb_test "info sharedlibrary" ".*[file tail ${libipa}].*" "IPA loaded"
so that only the "libinproctrace.so" part would be searched for.
Antoine (in CC) pointed out that I missed some, so I have to update
them. In the mean time, I noticed that I missed a few test failures:
adding the SONAME to the IPA makes it possible for the test executable
to erroneously pick up libinproctrace.so from /usr/lib if the test
harness failed to put the libinproctrace.so we want to test in the right
place. To mitigate that kind of error in the future, we can use the
return value of gdb_load_shlib (the path of the "runtime" version of the
library) and use that to search in the output of info sharedlibrary.
When testing locally, gdb_load_shlib returns the full normalized path of
the destination library, which the test executable should use e.g.:
/path/to/gdb/testsuite/outputs/gdb.trace/thetest/libinproctrace.so
My testing showed that it was the same path that gdb displayed in info
sharedlibrary. If the test executable picks up another
libinproctrace.so, the test will fail.
When testing remotely, gdb_load_shlib/gdb_remote_download only returns
us "libinproctrace.so", so the situation doesn't really change. If
there is a rogue libinproctrace.so in /usr/lib on the target and we fail
to download ours, it might cover up a test failure. But that situation
is probably still better than the original one, where it wasn't possible
to test remotely using the IPA at all.

Hi,
I happen to see that field need_step_over in struct lwp_info is only
used to print a debug info. need_step_over is set in linux_wait_1
when breakpoint_here is true, however, we check breakpoint_here too in
need_step_over_p and do the step over. I think we don't need field
need_step_over, and check breakpoint_here directly in need_step_over_p.
This field was added in this patch

wasn't changed much since then.

This patch makes gdb_load_shlibs return the destination path of the
copied library. To make the procedure implementation and interface more
straightforward, it also changes it so that it accepts a single shared
library path at the time. Therefore, calls that are passed multiple
libraries:
gdb_load_shlibs $lib1 $lib2
must be changed to separate calls:
gdb_load_shlibs $lib1
gdb_load_shlibs $lib2
A subtle impact is the solib-search-path handling. In the former
version, solib-search-path is set using the directory of the first
passed lib (further calls overwrite the value). In the later version,
the directory of the library passed to the last call to gdb_load_shlibs
remnains. I don't think that's a problem in practice, since if we had
tests that needed multiple different paths in solib-search-path, they
wouldn't work in the first place.

Currently c_value_print will turn struct reference values into pointers before
doing a set of RTTI checks. This was introduced as a fix to PR c++/15401.
If there's RTTI the pointer will be adjusted and converted back to a reference.
However, if there's no RTTI the value will still be treated as a pointer during
the remainder of the function.
This patch moves the conversion down so that it's always performed when needed.
Notice this currently has not user-visible effects, so can be seen as a small
code cleanup. However, it'll be necessary for the bug-fix for handling

enum outside the struct:
