Doing "info frame" in the outermost frame, when that was indicated by
the next frame saying the unwound PC is undefined/not saved, results
in error and incomplete output:

(gdb)
Not saved register values are treated as optimized out values
internally throughout. stack.c:frame_info is handing unvailable
values, but not optimized out ones. The patch deletes the
frame_unwind_caller_pc_if_available wrapper function and instead lets
errors propagate to frame_info (it's only user).
As frame_unwind_pc now needs to be able to handle and cache two
different error scenarios, the prev_pc.p variable is replaced with an
enumeration.
(FWIW, I looked into making gdbarch_unwind_pc or a variant return
struct value's instead, but it results in lots of boxing and unboxing
for no real gain -- e.g., the mips and arm implementations need to do
computation on the unboxed PC value. Might as well throw an error on
first attempt to get at invalid contents.)
After the patch, we get:

A new test is added. It's based off dw2-reg-undefined.exp, and tweaked to
mark the return address (rip) of "stop_frame" as undefined.

This improves the packing of struct partial_symtab. I noticed with
pahole that were were a couple of holes. This consolidates the holes

While looking into the probe API, it seemed to me that there were a
number of methods in sym_probe_fns that were not needed. This patch
removes them.
Specifically, it seems to me that sym_probe_fns ought to be concerned
with the API for constructing the probes. Any method relating to some
aspect of an individual probe can be handled via the probe's own
vtable. That is, the double indirection here doesn't seem useful --
it certainly isn't in fact used, but also I couldn't think of a
potential use.

With a simple Ada program where I have 3 functions, one just calling
the next, the backtrace is currently broken when GDB is compiled
at -O2:
#0 hello.first () at hello.adb:5
#1 0x0000000100001475 in hello.second () at hello.adb:10
Backtrace stopped: previous frame inner to this frame (corrupt stack?)
It turns out that a recent patch deleted the assignment of variable
this_id, making it an unitialized variable:
* frame-unwind.c (default_frame_unwind_stop_reason): Return
UNWIND_OUTERMOST if the frame's ID is outer_frame_id.
* frame.c (get_prev_frame_1): Remove outer_frame_id check.
The hunk in question starts with:
- /* Check that this frame is not the outermost. If it is, don't try
- to unwind to the prev frame. */
- this_id = get_frame_id (this_frame);
- if (frame_id_eq (this_id, outer_frame_id))
(the code was removed as redundant - but removing the assignment
was in fact not intentional).
There is no other code in this function that sets the variable.
Instead of re-adding the statement in the lone section where it is
actually used, I inlined it, and then got rid of the variable
altogether. This way, and until we start needing this frame ID
in another location within that function, we dont' have to worry
about the variable's validity/lifetime.
gdb/ChangeLog:
* frame.c (get_prev_frame_1): Delete variable "this_id".
Replace its use by a call to get_frame_id.
We've observed in Windows 2012 that ntdll.dll contains some unwind
records with the version field set to 2. This patch adjusts the
decoder to accept records flagged with this version as well.
Version 2 appears to still be largely undocumented at this stage.
However, apart from a mysterious opcode 6, everything else still
seems to remain the same. So this patch also changes the decoder
to ignore those opcodes; before this change, the debugger would
silently stop the decoding, and let the frame unwinder make do
with what it the decoder managed to decode up to that point.
It's unclear at this point what we're losing by not being able to
decode that opcode. But the information does not appear to be critical,
at least as far as call unwinding is concerned.

Consider the following code:
type Ptr is access all Integer;
IP : Ptr := new Integer'(123);
IP is the Ada exception of a pointer to an integer. To dereference
the pointer and get its value, the user uses the reserved word "all"
as follow:
(gdb) p ip.all
$1 = 123
Ada being a case-insensitive language, the casing should not matter.
Unfortunately, for the reserved word "all", things don't work. For
instance:
(gdb) p ip.ALL
Type integer is not a structure or union type
This patch fixes the problem.
gdb/ChangeLog:
* ada-lex.l (find_dot_all): Use strncasecmp instead of strncmp.
gdb/testsuite/ChangeLog:
* gdb.ada/dot_all: New testcase.
With a program raising an exception, trying to debug that program
in GDB/MI mode can yield a crash:
% gdb -i=mi foo
(gdb)
-catch-exception -e "Program_Error"
^done,bkptno="2",bkpt={number="2",type="breakpoint",[...]
(gdb)
-exec-continue
^running
*running,thread-id="all"
(gdb)
=library-loaded,id=[...]
&"warning: failed to reevaluate internal exception condition for catchpoint 2: Error in expression, near `'.\n"
zsh: 22956 bus error (core dumped) gdb -q -i=mi foo
The problem is triggered by a problem in the compiler which causes
EXP in the following TRY_CATCH block to change unexpectedly when
parse_exp_1 throws an error :
| TRY_CATCH (e, RETURN_MASK_ERROR)
| {
| exp = parse_exp_1 (&s, bl->address,
| block_for_pc (bl->address), 0);
| }
In ada-lang.c:create_excep_cond_exprs, EXP is initialized to NULL,
and is expected to remain NULL if parse_exp_1 throws. Instead,
its value gets changed to something invalid. This later crashes
the debugger, when trying to evaluate the bogus expression.
This patch works around the issue by simply forcing EXP back to NULL
when an exception was thrown. A comment explaining why, and the sort
of timeline we're looking at for a fix, is also added.
gdb/ChangeLog:
* ada-lang.c (create_excep_cond_exprs): Force EXP to NULL
when parse_exp_1 threw an error. Add comment.
This patch extends a bit the news entry we added which documents
general support of the --language option, to add a small reference

the support for the "--language" option.
Now that the -info-gdb-mi-command is available, there is no need for
this entry. The entry and associated new commands were added recently
enough that no front-end out there should be depending on it yet.
gdb/ChangeLog:

gdb/doc/ChangeLog:
* gdb.texinfo (GDB/MI Miscellaneous Commands): Remove the

... when trying to execute an undefined GDB/MI command. When trying
to execute a GDB/MI command which does not exist, the current error
result record looks like this:
-unsupported
^error,msg="Undefined MI command: unsupported"
The only indication that the command does not exist is the error
message. It would be a little fragile for a consumer to rely solely
on the contents of the error message in order to determine whether
a command exists or not.
This patch improves the situation by adding concept of error
code, starting with one well-defined error code ("undefined-command")
identifying errors due to a non-existant command. Here is the new
output:
-unsupported
^error,msg="Undefined MI command: unsupported",code="undefined-command"
This error code is only displayed when the corresponding error
condition is met. Otherwise, the error record remains unchanged.
For instance:
-symbol-list-lines foo.adb
^error,msg="-symbol-list-lines: Unknown source file name."
For frontends to be able to know whether they can rely on this
variable, a new entry "undefined-command-error-code" has been
added to the "-list-features" command. Another option would be
to always generate an error="..." variable (for the default case,
we could decide for instance that the error code is the empty string).
But it seems more efficient to provide that info in "-list-features"
and then only add the error code when meaningful.
gdb/ChangeLog:

(from Joel Brobecker <brobecker@adacore.com>)
* exceptions.h (enum_errors) <UNDEFINED_COMMAND_ERROR>: New enum.

the "-list-features" GDB/MI command.
gdb/testsuite/ChangeLog:
* gdb.mi/mi-undefined-cmd.exp: New testcase.
This patch adds a new GDB/MI command meant for graphical frontends
trying to determine whether a given GDB/MI command exists or not.
Examples:
-info-gdb-mi-command unsupported-command
^done,command={exists="false"}
(gdb)
-info-gdb-mi-command symbol-list-lines
^done,command={exists="true"}
(gdb)
At the moment, this is the only piece of information that this
command returns.
Eventually, and if needed, we can extend it to provide
command-specific pieces of information, such as updates to
the command's syntax since inception. This could become,
for instance:
-info-gdb-mi-command symbol-list-lines
^done,command={exists="true",features=[]}
(gdb)
-info-gdb-mi-command catch-assert
^done,command={exists="true",features=["conditions"]}
In the first case, it would mean that no extra features,
while in the second, it announces that the -catch-assert
command in this version of the debugger supports a feature
called "condition" - exact semantics to be documented with
combined with the rest of the queried command's documentation.
But for now, we start small, and only worry about existance.
And to bootstrap the process, I have added an entry in the
output of the -list-features command as well ("info-gdb-mi-command"),
allowing the graphical frontends to go through the following process:
1. Send -list-features, collect info from there as before;
2. Check if the output contains "info-gdb-mi-command".
If it does, then support for various commands can be
queried though -info-gdb-mi-command. Newer commands
will be expected to always be checked via this new
-info-gdb-mi-command.
gdb/ChangeLog:
* mi/mi-cmds.h (mi_cmd_info_gdb_mi_command): Declare.
* mi/mi-cmd-info.c (mi_cmd_info_gdb_mi_command): New function.

* mi/mi-main.c (mi_cmd_list_features): Add "info-gdb-mi-command"
field to output of "-list-features".
* NEWS: Add entry for new -info-gdb-mi-command.
gdb/doc/ChangeLog:
* gdb.texinfo (GDB/MI Miscellaneous Commands): Document
the new -info-gdb-mi-command GDB/MI command. Document
the meaning of "-info-gdb-mi-command" in the output of

* remote.c (putpkt_for_catch_errors): Remove function.
(remote_kill): Handle TARGET_CLOSE_ERROR from the kill packet
gracefully.
In remote-notif.c:handle_notification, we have a loop,
for (i = 0; i < ARRAY_SIZE (notifs); i++)
{
nc = notifs[i];
if (strncmp (buf, nc->name, strlen (nc->name)) == 0
&& buf[strlen (nc->name)] == ':')
break;
}
/* We ignore notifications we don't recognize, for compatibility
with newer stubs. */
if (nc == NULL)
return;
If the notification is not in the list 'notifs', the last entry is
used, which is wrong. It should be NULL. This patch fixes it.

* remote-notif.c (handle_notification): Return early if no
notification is found.
Not all systems supporting getrlimit also support RLIMIT_NOFILE
(Eg. All LynxOS systems appear to be lacking support for this).
So check its existance before using it.
gdb/ChangeLog:
* common/filestuff.c (fdwalk): Add "defined(RLIMIT_NOFILE)"
preprocessor check.
Simplify handling of auto-loaded objfile scripts.
.debug_gdb_scripts was always intended to handle more than just python,
thus the rightful home for the code that processes it is not in py-foo.c.
This is just a cleanup to move the code to a better place.
This also simplifies the handling of the ${objfile}-${suffix} auto-loaded
scripts. There's no need for each of the the handlers to do is-safe-to-load
checking, or call maybe_add_script. Doing it in the caller removes the
duplication.
* auto-load.h (script_language): New members name, auto_load_enabled.
Add missing comments on struct members.
(auto_load_objfile_script): Delete.
* auto-load.c: #include "cli/cli-cmds.h".
(auto_load_gdb_scripts_enabled): New function.
(script_language_gdb): Update, add new members.
(source_gdb_script_for_objfile): Simplify, auto-load safe-checking
and call to maybe_add_script moved to caller.
(auto_load_objfile_script_1): Auto-load safe-checking and
call to maybe_add_script moved here.
(auto_load_objfile_script): Make static. Early exit if support for
scripting language hasn't been compiled in, or auto-loading has been
disabled.
(source_section_scripts): Argument "source_name" renamed to
"section_name". All uses updated. Replace uses of AUTO_SECTION_NAME
with section_name. Skip loading script if support for scripting
language hasn't been compiled in, or auto-loading has been disabled.
Call language->source_script_for_objfile instead of calling
source_python_script_for_objfile directly.
(load_auto_scripts_for_objfile): Update.
* python/py-auto-load.c: Delete #include "cli/cli-cmds.h".
(gdbpy_load_auto_script_for_objfile): Delete.
(auto_load_python_scripts_enabled): New function.

(source_section_scripts): Moved here from py-auto-load.c.
(auto_load_section_scripts): Ditto.
* python/py-auto-load.c (GDBPY_AUTO_SECTION_NAME): Moved to
auto-load.c, renamed AUTO_SECTION_NAME.
(source_section_scripts, auto_load_section_scripts): Moved to
auto-load.c.
This commit removes the "#include gdb_string.h" from gdbarch.sh, fixing

Unfortunately, UNWIND_NULL_ID is exported to Python as
gdb.FRAME_UNWIND_NULL_ID so we can't really eliminate it.
(I'd assume scripts just check the result of Frame.unwind_stop_reason,
and compare it to gdb.FRAME_UNWIND_NO_REASON. That at most, they'll
pass the result of Frame.unwind_stop_reason to
gdb.frame_stop_reason_string. I'd prefer to just get rid of it, but
because we make an API promise, we get to keep this around for
compatibility, in case a script does refer to gdb.FRAME_UNWIND_NULL_ID
directly.)

The memory management of bp_location->target_info.conditions|tcommands
is currently a little fragile. If the target reports support for
target conditions or commands, and then target side breakpoint support
is disabled, or some error is thrown before remote_add_target_side_XXX
is called, we'll leak these lists. This patch makes us free these
lists when the locations are deleted, and also, just before recreating
the commands|conditions lists.
Tested on x86_64 Fedora 17, native and gdbserver.

GDB on x86_64-linux is unable to disassemble on core-file target.
$ ./gdb ./testsuite/gdb.base/corefile
(gdb) core-file ./testsuite/gdb.base/corefile.core
(gdb) disassemble main
Dump of assembler code for function main:
0x0000000000400976 <+0>: Cannot access memory at address 0x400976
However, it works if we turn code-cache off.
(gdb) set code-cache off
(gdb) disassemble main,+4
Dump of assembler code from 0x400976 to 0x40097a:
0x0000000000400976 <main+0>: push %rbp
0x0000000000400977 <main+1>: mov %rsp,%rbp
End of assembler dump.
When code-cache is off, GDB will iterate target_ops from top to bottom
and call to_xfer_partial. When current_target is "core", it will call
to_xfer_partial of target "exec", which reads the contents for
disassemble. However, dcache uses TARGET_OBJECT_RAW_MEMORY to read,
but target_xfer_partial doesn't delegate requests to beneath for
TARGET_OBJECT_RAW_MEMORY.
This patch factors out the iteration from top to bottom to a new
function, raw_memory_xfer_partial, and use it for
TARGET_OBJECT_RAW_MEMORY.
Regression tested on x86_64-linux.

When printing an entirely optimized out structure/class/union, we
print a single <optimized out> instead of printing <optimized out> for
each field.
This patch makes an entirely unavailable structure/class/union be
likewise displayed with a single "<unavailable>" rather than the whole
object with all fields <unavailable>.
This seems good because this way the user can quickly tell whether the
whole value is unavailable, rather than having to skim all fields.
Consistency with optimized out values also seems to be a good thing to
have.
A few updates to gdb.trace/unavailable.exp where required.
Tested on x86_64 Fedora 17, native gdbserver.
