If a tracepoint's actions list includes a while-stepping action, and
then the actions are changed to a list without any while-stepping
action, the tracepoint's step_count will be left with a stale value.
For example:
(gdb) trace subr
Tracepoint 1 at 0x4004d9: file ../../../src/gdb/testsuite//actions-changed.c, line 31.
(gdb) actions
Enter actions for tracepoint 1, one per line.
End with a line saying just "end".
>collect $reg
>end
(gdb) set debug remote 1
(gdb) tstart

End with a line saying just "end".

The last "$QTDP:1:00000000004004d9:E:1:0-#a4" should be "$QTDP:1:00000000004004d9:E:0:0-#a3".

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".
> while-stepping 5
>end
> end
(gdb) maint info breakpoints 5
Num Type Disp Enb Address What
5 tracepoint keep y 0x000000000045a2ab in main at ../../src/gdb/gdb.c:29 inf 1
step_count=5
^^^^^^^^^^^^
while-stepping 5
end
not installed on target
(gdb) maint info breakpoints 6
Num Type Disp Enb Address What
6 tracepoint keep y 0x000000000045a2ab in main at ../../src/gdb/gdb.c:29 inf 1
step_count=0
^^^^^^^^^^^^
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.

I hacked "apropos" to dump the whole set of commands (just make it
accept the entry string as regex), and then diffed the output of 7.5
vs 7.6, --enable-targets=all builds. That allowed then checking
whether some commands had not been mentioned in NEWS or the manual.
These are what I found missing. We've been a bit negligent in
requiring documentation bits for debug commands.

PR gdb/15275 notes that when debugging with a remote connection over a
serial link and the link is disconnected, say by disconnecting USB
serial port, the GDB quit command no longer works:
(gdb)
tar ext /dev/ttyACM0
&"tar ext /dev/ttyACM0\n"
~"Remote debugging using /dev/ttyACM0\n"
^done
(gdb)
set debug remote 1
&"set debug remote 1\n"
^done
(gdb)
quit
&"quit\n"
&"Sending packet: $qTStatus#49..."
&"putpkt: write failed: Input/output error.\n"
^error,msg="putpkt: write failed: Input/output error."
(gdb)
(gdb)
quit
&"quit\n"
&"Sending packet: $qTStatus#49..."
&"putpkt: write failed: Input/output error.\n"
^error,msg="putpkt: write failed: Input/output error."
This is not reproducible with TCP connections, as with that, sending
doesn't error out, but instead the error is detected on the subsequent
readchar. When that read fails, we unpush the remote target, and
throw TARGET_CLOSE_ERROR. To address PR gdb/15275, instead of
catching the error in remote_get_trace_status as presently done (which
leaves this same issue latent for another packet to trip on), or of
making ser-unix.c fake success too on failed writes, so we'd get to
readchar detecting the error on serial ports too, better let the error
propagate out of serial_write, and catch it at the remote.c level,
throwing away the target if writing fails too, instead of delaying
that until the next read.
