In a test I was writting, I needed a procedure that would connect to
the target, and do "load", or equivalent.
Years ago, boards would override gdb_load to implement that. Then
gdb_reload was added, and gdb_load was relaxed to allow boards avoid
the spawing and connecting to the target. This sped up gdbserver
testing. See
https://www.sourceware.org/ml/gdb-patches/2007-02/msg00318.html.
To actually spawn the target and load the executable on the target
side, gdb_reload was born:
# gdb_reload -- load a file into the target. Called before "running",
# either the first time or after already starting the program once,
# for remote targets. Most files that override gdb_load should now
# override this instead.
proc gdb_reload { } {
# For the benefit of existing configurations, default to gdb_load.
# Specifying no file defaults to the executable currently being
# debugged.
return [gdb_load ""]
}
Note the comment about specifying no file. Indeed looking at
config/sid.exp, or config/monitor.exp, we see examples of that.
However, the default gdb_load itself doesn't handle the case of no
file specified. When passed no file, it just calls gdb_file_cmd with
no file either, which ends up invocing the "file" command with no
argument, which means unloading the file and its symbols... That
means calling gdb_reload when testing against native targets is
broken. We don't see that today because the only call to gdb_reload
that exists today is guarded by target_info exists
gdb,do_reload_on_run.
The native-extended-gdbserver.exp board is likewise broken here. When
[gdb_load ""] is called, the board sets the remote exec-file to "" ...
Tested on x86_64 Fedora 17, native, remote gdbserver and
extended-remote gdbserver.

breakpoint table handling. This is a patch in five parts (all committed
here in one commit).
----- 1/5: parse_args
parse_args is a very useful utility function which allows you to do
getopt-y kinds of things in Tcl.
Example:
proc myproc {foo args} {
parse_args {{bar} {baz "abc"} {qux}}
# ...
}
myproc ABC -bar -baz DEF peanut butter
will define the following variables in myproc:
foo (=ABC), bar (=1), baz (=DEF), and qux (=0)
args will be the list {peanut butter}
----- 2/5: mi_build_kv_pairs
build_kv_pairs simply does what it says: given the input list
and an option join string, it combines list elements into kv-pairs
for MI handling. It knows how to handle tuples and other special
MI types.
Example:
mi_build_kv_pairs {a b c d e f g \[.*\]}
returns a=\"b\",c=\"d\",e=\"f\",g=\[.*\]
----- 3/5: mi_make_breakpoint
This function builds breakpoint regexps, such as
"bkpt={number=\".*\", [snip]}".
Note that ONLY the options given to mi_make_breakpoint/mi_create_breakpoint
will actually be tested. So if -number is omitted, the regexp will allow
anything [number=\".*\"]
Examples:
mi_make_breakpoint -number 3
mi_create_breakpoint "myfile.c:21" -file myfile.c -line 21
----- 4/5: mi_make_breakpoint_table
This function builds MI breakpoint table regexps.
Example:
set bps {}
lappend bps [mi_make_breakpoint -number 1 -func "main" \
-file ".*/myfile.c" -line 42
lappend bps [mi_make_breakpoint -number 2 -func "marker" \
-file ".*myfile.c" -line 21
gdb_test "-break-info" "\\^done,[mi_make_breakpoint_table $bps]" \
"breakpoint list"

As explained in
https://sourceware.org/ml/gdb-patches/2008-08/msg00361.html, after a
shared library was unloaded, we can no longer insert or remove
breakpoints into/from its (no longer present) code segment. That'll
fail with memory errors. However, that concern does not apply to
hardware breakpoints. By definition, hardware breakpoints are
implemented using a mechanism that is not dependent on being able to
modify the target's memory. Usually, by setting up CPU debug
registers. IOW, we should be able to set hw breakpoints in an
unmapped address. We don't seem to have a test that exercises that,
so this patch adds one.
I noticed the error supression because of a related issue -- the
target_insert_hw_breakpoint/target_remove_hw_breakpoint interfaces
don't really distinguish "not supported" from "error" return, and so
remote.c returns -1 in both cases. This results in hardware
breakpoints set in shared libraries silently ending up pending forever
even though the target doesn't actually support hw breakpoints.
(gdb) set breakpoint always-inserted on

After the patch we get the expected:
(gdb) hbreak shrfunc
Hardware assisted breakpoint 3 at 0x7ffff7dfb657: file ../../../src/gdb/testsuite/gdb.base/hbreak-in-shr-unsupported-shr.c, line 21.

(HW breakpoints set in the main executable, when the target doesn't
support HW breakpoints always resulted in the latter output.)
We probably should improve the insert/remove interface to return a
different error code for unsupported. But I chose to fix the error
supression first, as it's a deeper and wider issue.

In gdb.trace/tfile.exp, we execute binary to generate tracefile,
remote_exec target "$binfile"
however, this fails on bare metal target. This patch is to
handle binary execution failure by running binary in GDB.
The binary will do some io operation to generate tracefile, so
we need a check 'target_info exists gdb,nofileio'.
This patch is to check whether tracefile is generated. tfile.exp can
be skipped if generation is failed, while test_tfind_tfile in
mi-traceframe-changed.exp is skipped if generated failed. The rest of
the mi-traceframe-changed.exp can still be executed, because on some
bare metal targets, the remote stub supports tracepoint but doesn't
support fileio.

Hi,
We find gdb.base/printcmds.exp fails a lot on windows host, like this,
p ctable1[163]
$204 = 163 '£'
(gdb) FAIL: gdb.base/printcmds.exp: p ctable1[163]
however, on linux host,
p ctable1[163]
$205 = 163 '\243'
(gdb) PASS: gdb.base/printcmds.exp: p ctable1[163]
The printing related code is in valprint.c:print_wchar,
if (gdb_iswprint (w) && (!need_escape || (!gdb_iswdigit (w)
&& w != LCST ('8')
&& w != LCST ('9'))))
{
gdb_wchar_t wchar = w;
if (w == gdb_btowc (quoter) || w == LCST ('\\'))
obstack_grow_wstr (output, LCST ("\\"));
obstack_grow (output, &wchar, sizeof (gdb_wchar_t));
}
else
{
// print W in hex or octal digits
}
When I debug gdb on different hosts, I find
on windows host, gdb_iswprint (iswprint) returns true if 'w' is 163.
However, on linux host, iswprint returns false if 'w' is 163. Looks
this difference is caused by the charset. On Linux host,
the target-charset is ANSI_X3.4-1968, while on windows host, the
target-charset is CP1252.
We can see how target-charset affects the output. On linux host,
(gdb) set target-charset ASCII
(gdb) p ctable1[163]
$1 = 163 '\243'
(gdb) set target-charset CP1252
(gdb) p ctable1[163]
$2 = 163 '£'
we can print the pound sign too, and it shows target-charset does
affect the output.
This patch is to set target-charset temporarily to ASCII for some
charset-sensitive tests. Tested on arm-none-eabi and
powerpc-linux-gnu on mingw32 host. More than one hundred fails are
fixed.

The completion feature and other features on readline depend on the
readline library. However, readline library is not always used, for
example, running testsuite like
make check RUNTESTFLAGS="--host_board=local-remote-host"
the input stream is not a tty, and GDB doesn't use readline library
as a result.
This patch is to skip tests on completion and readline if
'show editing' is off, which means readline isn't used. Note that
some tests in gdb.base/completion.exp test command complete, which
isn't related to readline, so these tests aren't affected by readline
library. This patch also moves these tests up, run them
unconditionally, and run the rest if readline library is used.

After a previous patch that was committed by Pedro (0000e5cc), trying
to set a dprintf with with a GDBserver that doesn't support agent
commands at all now throws an error. But the dprintf tests still fail
with some GDBserver targets because they doesn't try to handle the
case of the server reporting support for breakpoint commands, but not
be able to use those in combination with Z0 (because Z0 isn't actually
supported, for example):
FAIL: gdb.base/dprintf.exp: 1st dprintf, agent
FAIL: gdb.base/dprintf.exp: 2nd dprintf, agent
FAIL: gdb.base/dprintf.exp: dprintf info 2 (pattern 4)
Similarly for the MI test.
This patch makes the tests handle this scenario.
Tested with native, and native gdbserver on x86_64 Fedora 17.
Also tested with the native-gdbserver.exp board hacked with:
set GDBFLAGS "${GDBFLAGS} -ex \"set remote breakpoint-commands off\""

so this was on top of a fix for that command.)

(One of the new comments mentions breakpoint always-inserted mode.
Actually testing with breakpoint always-inserted mode fails these
dprintf tests, due to the way they are written. But that'll take a
more substancial rewrite of the tests, so I'm leaving that for another
day.)

However, if we compare the event output when a real MI execution

As seen above, with MI commands, the *stopped event _doesn't_ have
frame info. This is because normal_stop, as commanded by the result
of bpstat_print, skips printing frame info in this case (it's an
"event", not a "breakpoint"), and when the interpreter is MI,
mi_on_normal_stop skips calling print_stack_frame, as the normal_stop
call was already done with the MI uiout. This explains why the async
output is different even with a CLI command. Its because in async
mode, the mi_on_normal_stop path is always taken; it is always reached
with the MI uiout, because the stop is handled from the event loop,
instead of from within `proceed -> wait_for_inferior -> normal_stop'
with the interpreter overridden, as in sync mode.
This patch fixes the issue by making all cases output the same
*stopped event, by factoring out the print code from normal_stop, and
using it from mi_on_normal_stop as well. I chose the *stopped output
without a frame, mainly because that is what you already get if you
use MI execution commands, the commands frontends are supposed to use
(except when implementing a console). This patch makes it simpler to
tweak the MI output differently if desired, as we only have to change
the centralized print_stop_event (taking into account whether the
uiout is MI-like), and all different modes will change accordingly.
Tested on x86_64 Fedora 17, no regressions. The mi-solib.exp test no
longer fails in async mode with this patch, so the patch removes the
kfail.

Test cases that produce source files in the build directory have not
been able to use prepare_for_testing and friends. This was because
build_executable_from_specs unconditionally prepended the source
directory path name to its arguments.
If GDB has crashed then gdb_spawn_id still exists (although it does not work).
So my patch does not change anything. And also currently it will leave the
stale gdbserver running anyway.
In general if gdb_spawn_id does not exist then send_gdb + gdb_expect just do
not make sense anyway. So this patch just prevents the error in such case.
The killing of stale gdbserver could be improved multiple ways (also as
suggested by Pedro in the original thread) but that is IMO outside of the
scope of this patch. Apparently if there is no good response from GDB then
gdb_finish() should try to call gdb_start just to kill that gdbserver, IIUC.

This patch adds a basic framework to do performance testing for GDB.
perftest.py is about the test case, testresult.py is about test
results, and how are they saved. reporter.py is about how results
are reported (in what format). measure.py is about measuring the
execution of tests by a collection of measurements.
In V5:
- Simplify perftest.exp.
In V4:
- Rename MeasurementCPUTime to MeasurementCpuTime,
- Add 'pass' in empty method,
- Simplify string comparison in perftest.exp.
- Rename GDB_PERFORMANCE to GDB_PERFTEST_MODE and rename
GDB_PERFORMANCE_TIMEOUT to GDB_PERFTEST_TIMEOUT.
In V3, there are some changes,
- Add wall time measurement, cpu time measurement and vmsize
measurement.
- Rename SingleStatisticTestCase to TestCaseWithBasicMeasurements,
which measures cpu time, wall time, and memory (vmsize).
- GDB_PERFORMANCE=run|compile|both to control the mode of perf
testing.
- New GDB_PERFORMANCE_TIMEOUT to specify the timeout.
- Split proc prepare to proc compile and startup.
- Disable GC while doing measurements.
In V2, there are several changes to address Doug and Sanimir's
comments.
- Add copyright header and docstring in perftest/__init__.py
- Remove config.py.
- Fix docstring format.
- Rename classes "SingleVariable" to "SingleStatistic".
- Don't extend gdb.Function in class TestCase. Add a new method run
to run the test case so that we can pass parameters to test.
- Allow to customize whether to warm up and to append test log.
- Move time measurement into test harness. Add a new class
Measurement for a specific measurement and a new class Measure to
measure them for a given test case.
- A new class ResultFactory to create instances of TestResult.
- New file lib/perftest.exp, which is to do some preparations and

Currently a proc in gdb.exp toggles the expect (and thus dejagnu)

some preprocessor output into the log.
In the right circumstances, this can result in the log file being
mysteriously truncated. I think this happens because it doesn't
necessarily write to the correct log file again.
The fix is to use "log_file -info" to save the previous log file.

This patch fixes gdb PR symtab/15597.
The bug is that the .gnu_debugaltlink section includes the build-id of
the alt file, but gdb does not use it.
This patch fixes the problem by changing gdb to do what it ought to
always have done: verify the build id of the file found using the
filename in .gnu_debugaltlink; and if that does not match, try to find
the correct debug file using the build-id and debug-file-directory.
This patch touches BFD. Previously, gdb had its own code for parsing
.gnu_debugaltlink; I changed it to use the BFD functions after those
were introduced. However, the BFD functions are incorrect -- they
assume that .gnu_debugaltlink is formatted like .gnu_debuglink.
However, it it is not. Instead, it consists of a file name followed
by the build-id -- no alignment, and the build-id is not a CRC.
Fixing this properly is a bit of a pain. But, because
separate_alt_debug_file_exists just has a FIXME for the build-id case,
I did not fix it properly. Instead I introduced a hack. This leaves
BFD working just as well as it did before my patch.
I'm willing to do something better here but I could use some guidance
as to what. It seems that the build-id code in BFD is largely punted
on.
FWIW gdb is the only user of bfd_get_alt_debug_link_info outside of
BFD itself.
I moved the build-id logic out of elfread.c and into a new file.
This seemed cleanest to me.
Writing a test case was a bit of a pain. I added a couple new
features to the DWARF assembler to handle this.

That "break exit" + "continue" comes from:

> #
The native-gdbserver.exp board, used to test against gdbserver in
"target remote" mode, triggers that case ($use_gdb_stub is true). So
gdb_continue_to_end doesn't work for catch-syscall.exp as here we
catch the exit_group and continue from that, expecting to see a real
program exit. I was about to post a patch that changes
catch-syscall.exp to call a new function that just always does what
gdb_continue_to_end does in the !$use_gdb_stub case. But, since
GDBserver doesn't really need this, in the end I thought it better to
teach the testsuite that there are stubs that know how to report
program exits, by adding a new "exit_is_reliable" board variable that
then gdb_continue_to_end checks.
Tested on x86_64 Fedora 17, native and gdbserver.

This finishes making gdb.dwarf2 parallel-safe.
To do this, this patch introduces a new gdb_remote_download proc, that
works somewhat differently in the one specific case where it matters:
for a copy to "host", if no destination was given, and the host is not
actually remote, then standard_output_file is used. In parallel mode
this guarantees that the resulting file will end up in a parallel-safe
location.

This introduces parallel mode for the test suite.
It doesn't fully work yet in the sense that if you do a fully parallel
run, you will encounter some file-name clashes, but this has to start
somewhere, and it seemed best to add some infrastructure now, so that
you can follow along and test subsequent patches if you care to.
This patch has two parts.
First, it checks for the GDB_PARALLEL variable. If this is set (say,
on the runtest command line), then the test suite assumes "parallel
mode". In this mode, files are put into a subdirectory named after
the test. That is, for DIR/TEST.exp, the outputs are put into
./outputs/DIR/TEST/.
This first part has various follow-on changes coming in subsequent
patches. This is why the code in this patch also makes "temp" and
"cache" directories.
Second, this adds an "inotify" mode. If you have the inotifywait
command (part of inotify-tools), you can set the GDB_INOTIFY variable.
This will tell the test suite to watch for changes outside of the
allowed output directories.
This mode is useful for debugging the test suite, as it issues a
report whenever a possibly parallel-unsafe file open is done.

In the fully parallel mode, each .exp file can be run in parallel (at
least conceptually -- the actual split may not be so severe). This
means that procs that compute a result and cache it are not going to
function very well. The test they run will be invoked over and over.
This patch introduces a generic caching mechanism and changes various
result-caching procs to use it. This is a cleanup to introduce the
basic change; the results aren't written to disk yet.

"proc", except that it caches the result of the body.

PR symtab/15391 is a failure with the DW_OP_GNU_implicit_pointer
feature.
I tracked it down to a logic error in read_pieced_value. The code
truncates this_size_bits according to the type size and offset too
early -- it should do it after taking bits_to_skip into account.
This patch fixes the bug.
While testing this, I also tripped across a latent bug because
indirect_pieced_value does not sign-extend where needed. This patch
fixes this bug as well.
Finally, Pedro pointed out that a previous version implemented sign
extension incorrectly. This version introduces a new gdb_sign_extend
function for this. A couple of notes on this function:
* It has the gdb_ prefix to avoid clashes with various libraries that
felt free to avoid proper namespacing. There is a "sign_extend"
function in a Tile GX header, in an SOM-related BFD header (and in
sh64-tdep.c and as a macro in arm-wince-tdep.c, but those are
ours...)
* I looked at all the sign extensions in gdb and didn't see ones that
I felt comfortable converting to use this function; in large part
because I don't have a good way to test the conversion.
Built and regtested on x86-64 Fedora 18. New test cases included;
this required a minor addition to the DWARF assembler. Note that the
DWARF CU made by implptrpiece.exp uses a funny pointer size in order
to show the sign-extension bug on all platforms.

A related issue is that the "commands" command actually supports
setting commands to a range of breakpoints/tracepoints at once. But,
hacking "maint info breakpoints" to print t->step_count, reveals:
(gdb) trace main
Tracepoint 5 at 0x45a2ab: file ../../src/gdb/gdb.c, line 29.
(gdb) trace main
Note: breakpoint 5 also set at pc 0x45a2ab.
Tracepoint 6 at 0x45a2ab: file ../../src/gdb/gdb.c, line 29.
(gdb) commands 5-6
Type commands for breakpoint(s) 5-6, one per line.
End with a line saying just "end".

(gdb) maint info breakpoints 6

^^^^^^^^^^^^
while-stepping 5
end
not installed on target
(gdb)
that tracepoint 6 doesn't end up with the correct step_count.
The issue is that here:
static void
do_map_commands_command (struct breakpoint *b, void *data)
{
struct commands_info *info = data;
if (info->cmd == NULL)
{
struct command_line *l;
if (info->control != NULL)
l = copy_command_lines (info->control->body_list[0]);
else
{
struct cleanup *old_chain;
char *str;
str = xstrprintf (_("Type commands for breakpoint(s) "
"%s, one per line."),
info->arg);
old_chain = make_cleanup (xfree, str);
l = read_command_lines (str,
info->from_tty, 1,
(is_tracepoint (b)
? check_tracepoint_command : 0),
b);
do_cleanups (old_chain);
}
info->cmd = alloc_counted_command_line (l);
}
validate_actionline is never called for tracepoints other than the
first (the copy_command_lines path). Right below, we have:
/* If a breakpoint was on the list more than once, we don't need to
do anything. */
if (b->commands != info->cmd)
{
validate_commands_for_breakpoint (b, info->cmd->commands);
incref_counted_command_line (info->cmd);
decref_counted_command_line (&b->commands);
b->commands = info->cmd;
observer_notify_breakpoint_modified (b);
}
And validate_commands_for_breakpoint looks like the right place to put
a call; if we reset step_count there too, we have a nice central fix
for the first issue as well, because trace_actions_command calls
breakpoint_set_commands that also calls
validate_commands_for_breakpoint.
We end up calling validate_actionline twice for the first tracepoint,
since read_command_lines calls it too, through
check_tracepoint_command, but that should be harmless.

When I tried running the btrace tests, I noticed something odd in the gdb.log file:
(gdb) run
Starting program: /home/pedro/gdb/mygit/build/gdb/testsuite/gdb.btrace/btrace22343.x
Breakpoint 1, main () at /home/pedro/gdb/mygit/build/gdb/testsuite/gdb.btrace/btrace22343.c:1
1 /home/pedro/gdb/mygit/build/gdb/testsuite/gdb.btrace/btrace22343.c: No such file or directory.
^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
(gdb) record btrace
Target does not support branch tracing.
(gdb) testcase ../../../src/gdb/testsuite/gdb.btrace/enable.exp completed in 0 seconds
I knew that the btrace tests on my machine weren't supposed to work,
but still, that error made me wonder if the test had something broken,
and waste a few minutes looking up where that is coming from.
The issue is that the btrace detection deletes the source file right
after compiling it, and before GDB has a chance to open it. It's
really harmless, but I'd rather spare others from going through the
same exercise.
We now get the regular:
(gdb) run
Starting program: /home/pedro/gdb/mygit/build/gdb/testsuite/gdb.btrace/btrace24210.x
...
Breakpoint 1, main () at /home/pedro/gdb/mygit/build/gdb/testsuite/gdb.btrace/btrace24210.c:1
