In skip_artificial_frames we repeatedly call get_prev_frame_always until we get
a non-inline and non-tailcall frame assuming that there must be such a frame
eventually.
For record targets, however, we may have a frame chain that consists only of
artificial frames. This leads to a crash in get_frame_type when dereferencing a
NULL frame pointer.
Change skip_artificial_frames and skip_tailcall_frames to return NULL in such a
case and modify each caller to cope with a NULL return.
In frame_unwind_caller_pc and frame_unwind_caller_arch, we simply assert that
the returned value is not NULL. Their caller was supposed to check
frame_unwind_caller_id before calling those functions.
In other cases, we thrown an error.
In infcmd further move the skip_tailcall_frames call to the forward-stepping
case since we don't need a frame for reverse execution and we don't want to fail
because of that. Reverse-finish does make sense for a tailcall frame.

This patch removes 'ops' in tracepoint, and uses helper functions to
call action handler instead.
The object layout of tracepoint_action may differ in gdbserver and
inferior depend on the alignment rule of target ABI, so gdbserver cannot
simply copy the object from its memory to inferior memory.
For example,
struct collect_memory_action
{
struct tracepoint_action base;
{
#ifndef IN_PROCESS_AGENT
const struct tracepoint_action_ops *ops;
#if
- char type;
| }
| ULONGEST addr;
| ULONGEST len;
- int32_t basereg;
};
and on PowerPC,
Wihtout ops with ops
0 1 2 3 0 1 2 3
0 |type| PADDING... 0 |ops-------------|
4 ................. 4 |type|PADDING....|
8 |addr------------ 8 |addr-------------
c ----------------| c -----------------|
10 |len------------- 10 |len--------------
14 ----------------| 14 -----------------|
18 |basereg--------| 18 |basereg---------|
so we cannot directly copy the object.
In this patch, 'ops' is removed in order to make the objects identical.

Currently, you can cd to the gdb/testsuite/ dir and use
make check-parallel, instead of using FORCE_PARALLEL:
$ make -j8 check-parallel RUNTESTFLAGS="--target_board=native-gdbserver"
$ make -j8 check RUNTESTFLAGS="--target_board=native-gdbserver" FORCE_PARALLEL=1
But you can't do that in the build/gdb/ dir:
$ make check-parallel RUNTESTFLAGS="--target_board=native-gdbserver"
make: *** No rule to make target `check-parallel'. Stop.
I find check-parallel a bit more convenient, and more typo-proof, so
this patch makes it work from the gdb build dir too.

- register order in tfile_fetch_registers (without that, $ymm15h is

- off-by-one in tfile_fetch_registers (without that, $ymm15h is
incorrectly considered to be out of bounds)

This patch uses the target architecture rather then the objfile
architecture when encoding tracepoint actions.
The target architecture may contain additional registers. E.g. ARM VFP
registers. This information is needed to allow their collection. Since we
can never know whether the registers numbers in the target match the
binary's we have to use tdesc here.
One note about combined debuggers / multi-inferior from Pedro Alves:
In the combined debugger case taking Cell as the practical example that
gdb supports currently:
In that case, the main target_gdbarch() will be powerpc, but you may have set a
tracepoint on _spu_ code, which has a different gdbarch. so for that case,
target_gdbarch would be wrong. I think that in that case, we'd need to
find __the_ target/tdesc gdbarch that is (bfd) compatible with the
objfile's gdbarch.
I think cell/spu gdbserver doesn't support tracepoints, so we can ignore
this for now.
The multi-inferior/process case is somewhat related, but its simpler.
each inferior has its own gdbarch.
That is, target_gdbarch depends on the current inferior selected.
In fact, that just returns inferior->gdbarch nowaways.

We have function regcache_raw_read_unsigned defined in both GDB and
GDBserver, so that it is used in common like this,
ULONGEST value;
status = regcache_raw_read_unsigned (regcache, regnum, &value);
'value' is correctly set in GDB side, but may not be correctly set
in GDBserver, because &value is passed in regcache_raw_read_unsigned
but collect_register may only set part of the whole variable. In my
test, I see the top half of 'value' is garbage. This patch fixes this
problem by clearing *VAL before calling collect_register.

tfile_fetch_registers currently wrongly fetches registers using

One of the last checks update_breakpoints_after_exec does while looping
over the list of breakpoints is check that the breakpoint has a valid
location spec. It uses event_location_empty_p to check if the location spec
is "empty", and if it is, the breakpoint is deleted.
momentary_breakpoint types rely on setting the breakpoint structure's
location spec to NULL, thereby causing an update to delete the breakpoint.
However, event_location_empty_p assumed that locations were never NULL.
As a result, GDB would crash dereferencing a NULL pointer whenever
update_breakpoints_after_exec would encounter a momentary_breakpoint.
This patch creates a new wrapper/helper function which tests that the given
breakpoint's location spec is non-NULL and if it is not "empty"
or "unspecified."

MI is currently using string_to_event_location to enable the use of legacy
linespecs, but using this function (until this patchset) had the (as yet
unnoticed) side effect of allowing both MI and CLI representation for
explicit locations.
This patch simply changes MI to use the same legacy linespec functions
that the python and guile interpreters use. This eliminates the CLI syntax
for explicit locations (in MI).

This patch refactors string_to_event_location, breaking it into two
separate functions:
1) string_to_event_location_basic
A "basic" string parser that implements support for "legacy" linespecs
(linespec, address, and probe locations). This function is intended to
be used by any UI wishing/needing to support this legacy behavior.
2) string_to_event_location
This is now intended as a CLI-only function which adds explicit location
parsing in a CLI-appropriate manner (in the form of traditional option/value
pairs).
Together these patches serve to simplify string-to-event location parsing
for all existing non-CLI interfaces (MI, guile, and python).

[PR17431: following execs with "breakpoint always-inserted on"]
https://sourceware.org/ml/gdb-patches/2014-09/msg00733.html
The problem this time is that we currently update the global location
list and try to insert breakpoint locations after re-setting _each_
breakpoint in turn.
Say:
- We have _more_ than one breakpoint set. Let's assume 2.
- There's a breakpoint with a pre-exec address that ends up being an
unmapped address after the exec.
- That breakpoint is NOT the first in the breakpoint list.
Then when handling an exec, and we re-set the first breakpoint in the
breakpoint list, we mistakently try to install the old pre-exec /
un-re-set locations of the other breakpoint, which fails:
(gdb) continue
