with the following code...
12 Nested; -- break #1
13 return I; -- break #2
14 end;
(line 12 is a call to function Nested)
... we have noticed the following errorneous behavior on ppc-aix,
where, after having inserted a breakpoint at line 12 and line 13,
and continuing from the breakpoint at line 12, the program never
stops at line 13, running away until the program terminates:
% gdb -q func
(gdb) b func.adb:12
Breakpoint 1 at 0x10000a24: file func.adb, line 12.
(gdb) b func.adb:13
Breakpoint 2 at 0x10000a28: file func.adb, line 13.
(gdb) run
Starting program: /[...]/func
Breakpoint 1, func () at func.adb:12
12 Nested; -- break #1
(gdb) c
Continuing.
[Inferior 1 (process 4128872) exited with code 02]
When resuming from the first breakpoint, GDB first tries to step out
of that first breakpoint. We rely on software single-stepping on this
platform, and it just so happens that the address of the first
software single-step breakpoint is the same as the user's breakpoint
#2 (0x10000a28). So, with infrun and target traces turned on (but
uninteresting traces snip'ed off), the "continue" operation looks like
this:
(gdb) c
### First, we insert the user breakpoints (the second one is an internal
### breakpoint on __pthread_init). The first user breakpoint is not
### inserted as we need to step out of it first.
target_insert_breakpoint (0x0000000010000a28, xxx) = 0
target_insert_breakpoint (0x00000000d03f3800, xxx) = 0
### Then we proceed with the step-out-of-breakpoint...
infrun: resume (step=1, signal=GDB_SIGNAL_0), trap_expected=1, current thread [process 15335610] at 0x10000a24
### That's when we insert the SSS breakpoints...
target_insert_breakpoint (0x0000000010000a28, xxx) = 0
target_insert_breakpoint (0x00000000100009ac, xxx) = 0
### ... then let the inferior resume...
target_resume (15335610, continue, 0)
infrun: wait_for_inferior ()
target_wait (-1, status, options={}) = 15335610, status->kind = stopped, signal = GDB_SIGNAL_TRAP
infrun: target_wait (-1, status) =
infrun: 15335610 [process 15335610],
infrun: status->kind = stopped, signal = GDB_SIGNAL_TRAP
infrun: infwait_normal_state
infrun: TARGET_WAITKIND_STOPPED
infrun: stop_pc = 0x100009ac
### At this point, we stopped at the second SSS breakpoint...
target_stopped_by_watchpoint () = 0
### We remove the SSS breakpoints...
target_remove_breakpoint (0x0000000010000a28, xxx) = 0
target_remove_breakpoint (0x00000000100009ac, xxx) = 0
target_stopped_by_watchpoint () = 0
### We find that we're not done, so we resume....
infrun: no stepping, continue
### And thus insert the user breakpoints again, except we're not
### inserting the second breakpoint?!?
target_insert_breakpoint (0x0000000010000a24, xxx) = 0
infrun: resume (step=0, signal=GDB_SIGNAL_0), trap_expected=0, current thread [process 15335610] at 0x100009ac
target_resume (-1, continue, 0)
infrun: prepare_to_wait
target_wait (-1, status, options={}) = 15335610, status->kind = exited, status = 2
What happens is that the removal of the software single-step
breakpoints effectively removed the breakpoint instruction from
inferior memory. But because such breakpoints are inserted directly
as raw breakpoints rather than through the normal chain of
breakpoints, we fail to notice that one of the user breakpoints points
to the same address and that this user breakpoint is therefore
effectively un-inserted. When resuming after the single-step, GDB
thinks that the user breakpoint is still inserted and therefore does
not need to insert it again.
This patch teaches the insert and remove routines of both regular and
raw breakpoints to be aware of each other. Special care needs to be
applied in case the target supports evaluation of breakpoint
conditions or commands.

Tested on ppc-aix with AdaCore's testsuite. Tested on x86_64-linux,
(native and gdbserver) with the official testsuite. Also tested on
x86_64-linux through Pedro's branch enabling software single-stepping
on that platform (native and gdbserver).
The check for the source (or "from") directory snippet in listing
matching path substitution rules currently will not match anything
other than a direct match of the "from" field in a substitution rule,
resulting in the incorrect behavior below:
...
(gdb) set substitute-path /a/path /another/path
(gdb) show substitute-path
List of all source path substitution rules:
`/a/path' -> `/another/path'.
(gdb) show substitute-path /a/path/to/a/file.ext
Source path substitution rule matching `/a/path/to/a/file.ext':
(gdb) show substitute-path /a/path
Source path substitution rule matching `/a/path':
`/a/path' -> `/another/path'.
...
This change effects the following behavior by (sanely) checking
with the length of the "from" portion of a rule and ensuring that
the next character of the path considered for substitution is a path
delimiter (or NULL). With this change, the following behavior is
garnered:
...
(gdb) set substitute-path /a/path /another/path
(gdb) show substitute-path
List of all source path substitution rules:
`/a/path' -> `/another/path'.
(gdb) show substitute-path /a/path/to/a/file.ext

Currently a MEMORY_ERROR raised during unwinding a frame will cause the
unwind to stop with an error message, for example:
(gdb) bt
#0 breakpt () at amd64-invalid-stack-middle.c:27
#1 0x00000000004008f0 in func5 () at amd64-invalid-stack-middle.c:32
#2 0x0000000000400900 in func4 () at amd64-invalid-stack-middle.c:38
#3 0x0000000000400910 in func3 () at amd64-invalid-stack-middle.c:44
#4 0x0000000000400928 in func2 () at amd64-invalid-stack-middle.c:50
Cannot access memory at address 0x2aaaaaab0000
However, frame #4 is marked as being the end of the stack unwind, so a
subsequent request for the backtrace looses the error message, such as:
(gdb) bt
#0 breakpt () at amd64-invalid-stack-middle.c:27
#1 0x00000000004008f0 in func5 () at amd64-invalid-stack-middle.c:32
#2 0x0000000000400900 in func4 () at amd64-invalid-stack-middle.c:38
#3 0x0000000000400910 in func3 () at amd64-invalid-stack-middle.c:44
#4 0x0000000000400928 in func2 () at amd64-invalid-stack-middle.c:50
When fetching the backtrace, or requesting the stack depth using the MI
interface the situation is even worse, the first time a request is made
we encounter the memory error and so the MI returns an error instead of
the correct result, for example:
(gdb) -stack-info-depth
^error,msg="Cannot access memory at address 0x2aaaaaab0000"
Or,
(gdb) -stack-list-frames
^error,msg="Cannot access memory at address 0x2aaaaaab0000"
However, once one of these commands has been used gdb has, internally,
walked the stack and figured that out that frame #4 is the bottom of the
stack, so the second time an MI command is tried you'll get the "expected"
result:
(gdb) -stack-info-depth
^done,depth="5"
Or,
(gdb) -stack-list-frames
^done,stack=[frame={level="0", .. snip lots .. }]
After this patch the MEMORY_ERROR encountered during the frame unwind is
attached to frame #4 as the stop reason, and is displayed in the CLI each
time the backtrace is requested. In the MI, catching the error means that
the "expected" result is returned the first time the MI command is issued.
So, from the CLI the results of the backtrace will be:
(gdb) bt
#0 breakpt () at amd64-invalid-stack-middle.c:27
#1 0x00000000004008f0 in func5 () at amd64-invalid-stack-middle.c:32
#2 0x0000000000400900 in func4 () at amd64-invalid-stack-middle.c:38
#3 0x0000000000400910 in func3 () at amd64-invalid-stack-middle.c:44
#4 0x0000000000400928 in func2 () at amd64-invalid-stack-middle.c:50
Backtrace stopped: Cannot access memory at address 0x2aaaaaab0000
Each and every time that the backtrace is requested, while the MI output
will similarly be consistently:
(gdb) -stack-info-depth
^done,depth="5"
Or,
(gdb) -stack-list-frames
^done,stack=[frame={level="0", .. snip lots .. }]

This finally makes background execution commands possible by default.
However, in order to do that, there's one last thing we need to do --
we need to separate the MI and target notions of "async". Unlike the
CLI, where the user explicitly requests foreground vs background
execution in the execution command itself (c vs c&), MI chose to treat
"set target-async" specially -- setting it changes the default
behavior of execution commands.
So, we can't simply "set target-async" default to on, as that would
affect MI frontends. Instead we have to make the setting MI-specific,
and teach MI about sync commands on top of an async target.
Because the "target" word in "set target-async" ends up as a potential
source of confusion, the patch adds a "set mi-async" option, and makes
"set target-async" a deprecated alias.
Rather than make the targets always async, this patch introduces a new
"maint set target-async" option so that the GDB developer can control
whether the target is async. This makes it simpler to debug issues
arising only in the synchronous mode; important because sync mode
seems unlikely to go away.
Unlike in previous revisions, "set target-async" does not affect this
new maint parameter. The rationale for this is that then one can
easily run the test suite in the "maint set target-async off" mode and
have tests that enable mi-async fail just like they fail on
non-async-capable targets. This emulation is exactly the point of the
maint option.
I had asked Tom in a previous iteration to split the actual change of
the target async default to a separate patch, but it turns out that
that is quite awkward in this version of the patch, because with MI
async and target async decoupled (unlike in previous versions), if we
don't flip the default at the same time, then just "set target-async
on" alone never actually manages to do anything. It's best to not
have that transitory state in the tree.
Given "set target-async on" now only has effect for MI, the patch goes
through the testsuite removing it from non-MI tests. MI tests are
adjusted to use the new and less confusing "mi-async" spelling.

Ignoring expected and desired differences like whether the prompt is
output after *stoppped records, GDB MI output is still different in
sync and async modes.
In sync mode, when a CLI execution command is entered, the "reason"
field is missing in the *stopped async record. And in async mode, for
some events, like program exits, the corresponding CLI output is
missing in the CLI channel.
Vis, diff between sync vs async modes:
run
^running
*running,thread-id="1"
(gdb)
...
- ~"[Inferior 1 (process 15882) exited normally]\n"
=thread-exited,id="1",group-id="i1"
=thread-group-exited,id="i1",exit-code="0"
- *stopped
+ *stopped,reason="exited-normally"
si
...
(gdb)
~"0x000000000045e033\t29\t memset (&args, 0, sizeof args);\n"
- *stopped,frame=...,thread-id="1",stopped-threads="all",core="0"
+ *stopped,reason="end-stepping-range",frame=...,thread-id="1",stopped-threads="all",core="0"
(gdb)
In addition, in both cases, when a MI execution command is entered,
and a breakpoint triggers, the event is sent to the console too. But
some events like program exits have the CLI output missing in the CLI
channel:
-exec-run
^running
*running,thread-id="1"
(gdb)
...
=thread-exited,id="1",group-id="i1"
=thread-group-exited,id="i1",exit-code="0"
- *stopped
+ *stopped,reason="exited-normally"
We'll want to make background commands always possible by default.
IOW, make target-async be the default. But, in order to do that,
we'll need to emulate MI sync on top of an async target. That means
we'll have yet another combination to care for in the testsuite.
Rather than making the testsuite cope with all these differences, I
thought it better to just fix GDB to always have the complete output,
no matter whether it's in sync or async mode.
This is all related to interpreter-exec, and the corresponding uiout
switching. (Typing a CLI command directly in MI is shorthand for
running it through -interpreter-exec console.)
In sync mode, when a CLI command is active, normal_stop is called when
the current interpreter and uiout are CLI's. So print_XXX_reason
prints the stop reason to CLI uiout (only), and we don't show it in
MI.
In async mode the stop event is processed when we're back in the MI
interpreter, so the stop reason is printed directly to the MI uiout.
Fix this by making run control event printing roughly independent of
whatever is the current interpreter or uiout. That is, move these
prints to interpreter observers, that know whether to print or be
quiet, and if printing, which uiout to print to. In the case of the
console/tui interpreters, only print if the top interpreter. For MI,
always print.
Breakpoint hits / normal stops are already handled similarly -- MI has
a normal_stop observer that prints the event to both MI and the CLI,
though that could be cleaned up further in the direction of this
patch.
This also makes all of:
(gdb) foo
and
(gdb) interpreter-exec MI "-exec-foo"
and
(gdb)
-exec-foo
and
(gdb)
-interpreter-exec console "foo"
print as expected.
Tested on x86_64 Fedora 20, sync and async modes.

* gdb.mi/mi-cli.exp: Always expect "end-stepping-range" stop
reason, even in sync mode.
If one sets a breakpoint with a condition that involves calling a
function in the inferior, and then the condition evaluates false, GDB
outputs one *running event for each time the program hits the
breakpoint. E.g.,
$ gdb return-false -i=mi
(gdb)
start
...
(gdb)
b 14 if return_false ()
&"b 14 if return_false ()\n"
~"Breakpoint 2 at 0x4004eb: file return-false.c, line 14.\n"
...
^done
(gdb)
c
&"c\n"
~"Continuing.\n"
^running
*running,thread-id=(...)
(gdb)
*running,thread-id=(...)
*running,thread-id=(...)
*running,thread-id=(...)
*running,thread-id=(...)
*running,thread-id=(...)
... repeat forever ...
An easy way a user can trip on this is with a dprintf with "set
dprintf-style call". In that case, a dprintf is just a breakpoint
that when hit GDB calls the printf function in the inferior, and then
resumes it, just like the case above.
If the breakpoint/dprintf is set in a loop, then these spurious events
can potentially slow down a frontend much, if it decides to refresh
its GUI whenever it sees this event (Eclipse is one such case).
When we run an infcall, we pretend we don't actually run the inferior.
This is already handled for the usual case of calling a function
directly from the CLI:
(gdb)
p return_false ()
&"p return_false ()\n"
~"$1 = 0"
~"\n"
^done
(gdb)
Note no *running, nor *stopped events. That's handled by:
static void
mi_on_resume (ptid_t ptid)
{
...
/* Suppress output while calling an inferior function. */
if (tp->control.in_infcall)
return;
and equivalent code on normal_stop.
However, in the cases of the PR, after finishing the infcall there's
one more resume, and mi_on_resume doesn't know that it should suppress
output then too, somehow.
The "running/stopped" state is a high level user/frontend state.
Internal stops are invisible to the frontend. If follows from that
that we should be setting the thread to running at a higher level
where we still know the set of threads the user _intends_ to resume.
Currently we mark a thread as running from within target_resume, a low
level target operation. As consequence, today, if we resume a
multi-threaded program while stopped at a breakpoint, we see this:
-exec-continue
^running
*running,thread-id="1"
(gdb)
*running,thread-id="all"
The first *running was GDB stepping over the breakpoint, and the
second is GDB finally resuming everything.
Between those two *running's, threads other than "1" still have their
state set to stopped. That's bogus -- in async mode, this opens a
tiny window between both resumes where the user might try to run
another execution command to threads other than thread 1, and very
much confuse GDB.
That is, the "step" below should fail the "step", complaining that the
thread is running:
(gdb) c -a &
(gdb) thread 2
(gdb) step
IOW, threads that GDB happens to not resume immediately (say, because
it needs to step over a breakpoint) shall still be marked as running.
Then, if we move marking threads as running to a higher layer,
decoupled from target_resume, plus skip marking threads as running
when running an infcall, the spurious *running events disappear,
because there will be no state transitions at all.
I think we might end up adding a new thread state -- THREAD_INFCALL or
some such, however since infcalls are always synchronous today, I
didn't find a need. There's no way to execute a CLI/MI command
directly from the prompt if some thread is running an infcall.

IMO, if you're typing execution commands in a frontend's console, you
expect to see their output. Indeed it's what you get in sync mode. I
think async mode should do the same. Deciding what to mirror to the
console wrt to breakpoints and random stops gets messy real fast.
E.g., say "s" trips on a breakpoint. We'd clearly want to mirror the
event to the console in this case. But what about more complicated
cases like "s&; thread n; s&", and one of those steps spawning a new
thread, and that thread hitting a breakpoint? It's impossible in
general to track whether the thread had any relation to the commands
that had been executed. So I think we should just simplify and always
mirror breakpoints and random events to the console.
Notes:
- mi->out is the same as gdb_stdout when MI is the current
interpreter. I think that referring to that directly is cleaner.
An earlier revision of this patch made the changes that are now
done in mi_on_normal_stop directly in infrun.c:normal_stop, and so
not having an obvious place to put the new uiout by then, and not
wanting to abuse CLI's uiout, I made a temporary uiout when
necessary.
- Hopefuly the rest of the patch is more or less obvious given the
comments added.

Here the list starts at line 62, where the program was stopped.
This happens because print_stack_frame, called from both normal_stop
and mi_on_normal_stop, is the function responsible for setting the
current sal from the selected frame, overrides the PRINT_WHAT
argument, and only after that does it decide whether to center the
current sal line or not, based on the overridden value, and it will
always decide false.
(The print_stack_frame call in mi_on_normal_stop is a little different
from the call in normal_stop, in that it is an unconditional
SRC_AND_LOC call. A future patch will make those uniform.)
A previous version of this patch made MI uniform with CLI here, by
making print_stack_frame also center when MI is active. That changed
the output of a "list" command in mi-cli.exp, to expect line 57
instead of 62, as per the example above.
However, looking deeper, that list in question is the first "list"
after the program stops, and right after the stop, before the "list",
the test did "set listsize 1". Let's try the same thing with the CLI:
(gdb) start
62 callee1 (2, "A string argument.", 3.5);
(gdb) set listsize 1
(gdb) list
57 {
Huh, that's unexpected. Why the 57? It's because print_stack_frame,
called in reaction to the breakpoint stop, expecting the next "list"
to show 10 lines (the listsize at the time) around line 62, sets the
lines listed range to 57-67 (62 +/- 5). If the user changes the
listsize before "list", why would we still show that range? Looks
bogus to me.
So the fix for this whole issue should be delay trying to center the
listing to until actually listing, so that the correct listsize can be
taken into account. This makes MI and CLI uniform too, as it deletes
the center code from print_stack_frame.
A series of tests are added to list.exp to cover this. mi-cli.exp was
after all correct all along, but it now gains an additional test that
lists lines with listsize 10, to ensure the centering is consistent
with CLI's.
One related Python test changed related output -- it's a test that
prints the line number after stopping for a breakpoint, similar to the
new list.exp tests. Previously we'd print the stop line minus 5 (due
to the premature centering), now we print the stop line. I think
that's a good change.

Sometimes it's useful to be able to disable the automatic connection
to the native target. E.g., sometimes GDB disconnects from the
extended-remote target I was debugging, without me noticing it, and
then I do "run". That starts the program locally, and only after a
little head scratch session do I figure out the program is running
locally instead of remotely as intended. Same thing with "attach",
"info os", etc.
With the patch, we now can have this instead:
(gdb) set auto-connect-native-target off
(gdb) target extended-remote :9999
...
*gdb disconnects*
(gdb) run
Don't know how to run. Try "help target".
To still be able to connect to the native target with
auto-connect-native-target set to off, I've made "target native" work
instead of erroring out as today.
Before:
(gdb) target native
Use the "run" command to start a native process.
After:
(gdb) target native
Done. Use the "run" command to start a process.
(gdb) maint print target-stack
The current target stack is:
- native (Native process)
- exec (Local exec file)
- None (None)
(gdb) run
Starting program: ./a.out
...
I've also wanted this for the testsuite, when running against the
native-extended-gdbserver.exp board (runs against gdbserver in
extended-remote mode). With a non-native-target board, it's always a
bug to launch a program with the native target. Turns out we still
have one such case this patch catches:
(gdb) break main
Breakpoint 1 at 0x4009e5: file ../../../src/gdb/testsuite/gdb.base/coremaker.c, line 138.
(gdb) run
Don't know how to run. Try "help target".
(gdb) FAIL: gdb.base/corefile.exp: run: with core
On the patch itself, probably the least obvious bit is the need to go
through all targets, and move the unpush_target call to after the
generic_mourn_inferior call instead of before. This is what
inf-ptrace.c does too, ever since multi-process support was added.
The reason inf-ptrace.c does things in that order is that in the
current multi-process/single-target model, we shouldn't unpush the
target if there are still other live inferiors being debugged. The
check for that is "have_inferiors ()" (a misnomer nowadays...), which
does:
have_inferiors (void)
{
for (inf = inferior_list; inf; inf = inf->next)
if (inf->pid != 0)
return 1;
It's generic_mourn_inferior that ends up clearing inf->pid, so we need
to call it before the have_inferiors check. To make all native
targets behave the same WRT to explicit "target native", I've added an
inf_child_maybe_unpush_target function that targets call instead of
calling unpush_target directly, and as that includes the
have_inferiors check, I needed to adjust the targets.
Tested on x86_64 Fedora 20, native, and also with the
extended-gdbserver board.
Confirmed a cross build of djgpp gdb still builds.
Smoke tested a cross build of Windows gdb under Wine.
Untested otherwise.

I had been pondering renaming "target child" to something else.
"child" is a little lie in case of "attach", and not exactly very
clear to users, IMO. By best suggestion is "target native". If I
were to explain what "target child" is, I'd just start out with "it's
the native target" anyway. I was worrying a little that "native"
might be a lie too if some port comes up with a default target that
can run but is not really native, but I think that's a very minor
issue - we can consider that "native" really means the default built
in target that GDB supports, instead of saying that's the target that
debugs host native processes, if it turns out necessary.
This change doesn't affect users much, because "target child" results
in error today:
(gdb) target child
Use the "run" command to start a child process.
Other places "child" is visible:
(gdb) help target

The dcache (code/stack cache) is supposed to be transparent, but it's
actually not in one case. dcache tries to read chunks (cache lines)
at a time off of the target. This may end up trying to read
unaccessible or unavailable memory. Currently the caller gets an xfer
error in this case. But if the specific bits of memory the caller
actually wanted are available and accessible, then the caller should
get the memory it wanted, not an error.

This does two things:
1. Adds a test.
Recently compare-sections got a new "-r" switch, but given no test
existed for compare-sections, the patch was allowed in with no
testsuite addition. This now adds a test for both compare-sections
and compare-sections -r.
2. Makes the compare-sections command work against all targets.
Currently, compare-sections only works with remote targets, and only
those that support the qCRC packet. The patch makes it so that if the
target doesn't support accelerating memory verification, then GDB
falls back to comparing memory itself. This is of course slower, but
it's better than nothing, IMO. While testing against extended-remote
GDBserver I noticed that we send the qCRC request to the target if
we're connected, but not yet running a program. That can't work of
course -- the patch fixes that. This all also goes in the direction
of bridging the local/remote parity gap.
I didn't decouple 1. from 2., because that would mean that the test
would need to handle the case of the target not supporting the
command.
Tested on x86_64 Fedora 17, native, remote GDBserver, and
extended-remote GDBserver. I also hack-disabled qCRC support to make
sure the fallback paths in remote.c work.

Actually, that patch just exposed a latent issue to "breakpoints
always-inserted off" mode, not really caused it. After that patch,
GDB no longer removes breakpoints at each internal event, thus making
some scenarios behave like breakpoint always-inserted on. The bug is
easy to trigger with always-inserted on.
The issue is that since the target-side breakpoint conditions support,
if the stub/server supports evaluating breakpoint conditions on the
target side, then GDB is sending duplicate Zx packets to the target
without removing them before, and GDBserver is not really expecting
that for Z packets other than Z0/z0. E.g., with "set breakpoint
always-inserted on" and "set debug remote 1":
(gdb) b main
Sending packet: $m410943,1#ff...Packet received: 48
Breakpoint 4 at 0x410943: file ../../../src/gdb/gdbserver/server.c, line 3028.

^^^^^^^^^^^^
Sending packet: $z1,410943,1#69...Packet received: OK
^^^^^^^^^^^^
So GDB sent a bunch of Z1 packets, and then when finally removing the
breakpoint, only one z1 packet was sent. On the GDBserver side (with
monitor set debug-hw-points 1), in the Z1 case, we see:

DR2: addr=0x0, ref.count=0 DR3: addr=0x0, ref.count=0
That's one insert_watchpoint call for each Z1 packet, and then one
remove_watchpoint call for the z1 packet. Notice how ref.count
increased for each insert_watchpoint call, and then in the end, after
GDB told GDBserver to forget about the hardware breakpoint, GDBserver
ends with the the first debug register still with ref.count=4! IOW,
the hardware breakpoint is left armed on the target, while on the GDB
end it's gone. If the program happens to execute 0x410943 afterwards,
then the CPU traps, GDBserver reports the trap to GDB, and GDB not
having a breakpoint set at that address anymore, reports to the user a
spurious SIGTRAP.
This is exactly what is happening in the hbreak2.exp test, though in
that case, it's a shared library event that triggers a
breakpoint_re_set, when breakpoints are still inserted (because
nowadays GDB doesn't remove breakpoints while handling internal
events), and that recreates breakpoint locations, which likewise
forces breakpoint reinsertion and Zx packet resends...
That is a lot of bogus Zx duplication that should possibly be
addressed on the GDB side. GDB resends Zx packets because the way to
change the target-side condition, is to resend the breakpoint to the
server with the new condition. (That's an option in the packet: e.g.,
"Z1,410943,1;X3,220027" for "hbreak main if 0". The packets in the
examples above are shorter because the breakpoints don't have
conditions attached). GDB doesn't remove the breakpoint first before
reinserting it because that'd be bad for non-stop, as it'd open a
window where the inferior could miss the breakpoint. The conditions
actually haven't changed between the resends, but GDB isn't smart
enough to realize that.
(TBC, if the target doesn't support target-side conditions, then GDB
doesn't trigger these resends (init_bp_location calls
mark_breakpoint_location_modified, and that does nothing if condition
evaluation is on the host side. The resends are caused by the
'loc->condition_changed = condition_modified.' line.)
But, even if GDB was made smarter, GDBserver should really still
handle the resends anyway. So target-side conditions also aren't
really to blame. The documentation of the Z/z packets says:
"To avoid potential problems with duplicate packets, the operations
should be implemented in an idempotent way."
As such, we may want to fix GDB, but we should definitely fix
GDBserver. The fix is a prerequisite for target-side conditions on
hardware breakpoints anyway (and while at it, on watchpoints too).
GDBserver indeed already treats duplicate Z0 packets in an idempotent
way. mem-break.c has the concept of high-level and low-level
breakpoints, somewhat similar to GDB's split of breakpoints vs
breakpoint locations, and keeps track of multiple breakpoints
referencing the same address/location, for the case of an internal
GDBserver breakpoint or a tracepoint being set at the same address as
a GDB breakpoint. But, it only allows GDB to ever contribute one
reference to a software breakpoint location. IOW, if gdbserver sees a
Z0 packet for the same address where it already had a GDB breakpoint
set, then GDBserver won't create another high-level GDB breakpoint.
However, mem-break.c only tracks GDB Z0 breakpoints. The same logic
should apply to all kinds of Zx packets. Currently, gdbserver passes
down each duplicate Zx (other than Z0) request directly to the
target->insert_point routine. The x86 watchpoint support itself
refcounts watchpoint / hw breakpoint requests, to handle overlapping
watchpoints, and save debug registers. But that code doesn't (and
really shouldn't) handle the duplicate requests, assuming that for
each insert there will be a corresponding remove.
So the fix is to generalize mem-break.c to track all kinds of Zx
breakpoints, and filter out duplicates. As mentioned, this ends up
adding support for target-side conditions on hardware breakpoints and
watchpoints too (though GDB itself doesn't support the latter yet).
Probably the least obvious change in the patch is that it kind of
turns the breakpoint insert/remove APIs inside out. Before, the
target methods were only called for GDB breakpoints. The internal
breakpoint set/delete methods inserted memory breakpoints directly
bypassing the insert/remove target methods. That's not good when the
target should use a debug API to set software breakpoints, instead of
relying on GDBserver patching memory with breakpoint instructions, as
is the case of NTO.
Now removal/insertion of all kinds of breakpoints/watchpoints, either
internal, or from GDB, always go through the target methods. The
insert_point/remove_point methods no longer get passed a Z packet
type, but an internal/raw breakpoint type. They're also passed a
pointer to the raw breakpoint itself (note that's still opaque outside
mem-break.c), so that insert_memory_breakpoint /
remove_memory_breakpoint have access to the breakpoint's shadow
buffer. I first tried passing down a new structure based on GDB's
"struct bp_target_info" (actually with that name exactly), but then
decided against it as unnecessary complication.
As software/memory breakpoints work by poking at memory, when setting
a GDB Z0 breakpoint (but not internal breakpoints, as those can assume
the conditions are already right), we need to tell the target to
prepare to access memory (which on Linux means stop threads). If that
operation fails, we need to return error to GDB. Seeing an error, if
this is the first breakpoint of that type that GDB tries to insert,
GDB would then assume the breakpoint type is supported, but it may
actually not be. So we need to check whether the type is supported at
all before preparing to access memory. And to solve that, the patch
adds a new target->supports_z_point_type method that is called before
actually trying to insert the breakpoint.
Other than that, hopefully the change is more or less obvious.
New test added that exercises the hbreak2.exp regression in a more
direct way, without relying on a breakpoint re-set happening before
main is reached.

Hi,
This patch is to add a new board setting gdb_reverse_timeout, which is
used to set timeout for all gdb.reverse test cases, which are usually
very slow and cause some TIMEOUT failures, for example, on some arm
boards. We have some alternatives to this approach, but I am not
satisfied with them:
- Increase the timeout value. This is the global change, and it may
cause some delay where actual failures happen.
- Set timeout by gdb_reverse_timeout in every gdb.reverse/*.exp.
Then, we have to touch every file under gdb.reverse.
In this patch, we choose a central place to set timeout for all tests
in gdb.reverse, which is convenient.
gdb/testsuite:
2014-05-20 Yao Qi <yao@codesourcery.com>
* lib/gdb.exp (gdb_init): Set timeout if test file is under
gdb.reverse directory and gdb_reverse_timeout exists in board
setting.
* README: Document gdb_reverse_timeout.
The argument ARGS of gdb_init is passed from dejagnu is a string, the
test file name. In dejagnu/runtest.exp:
proc runtest { test_file_name } {
....
....
if [info exists tool] {
if { [info procs "${tool}_init"] != "" } {
${tool}_init $test_file_name;
}
}
....
}
but inn default_gdb_init (callee of gdb_init), we have
set gdb_test_file_name [file rootname [file tail [lindex $args 0]]]
In tcl, all actual arguments are combined to a list and assigned to
args. This code here isn't wrong, but unnecessary, because its caller
(proc runtest) only passes one string to it, and IMO, we don't need
such tricky tcl "args".
I doubt that "[lindex $args 0]" is to be backward compatible with old
dejagnu, but dejagnu-1.4 release started to pass $test_file_name to
${too}_init, as I showed above. dejagnu-1.4 was released in 2001, and
it should be old enough. I also tried to check whether gdb testusite
works with dejagnu-1.3 or not, but failed to build dejagnu-1.3 on my
machine. Supposing GDB testsuite requires at least dejagnu-1.4, this
change should be safe.
This patch is update default_gdb_init to treat ARGS as a string instead
of a list. Then, 'args' sounds like a list, and this patch also renames
it by 'test_file_name', to align with dejagnu.

Some gdb.dwarf2/*.exp tests copy file1.txt to host via gdb_remote_download
but dw2-filename.exp and dw2-anonymous-func.exp don't do that. Looks like
an oversight in this patch
https://sourceware.org/ml/gdb-patches/2013-08/msg00365.html
There are some fails in remote host testing.

This patch fixes mi-file.exp fails on remote host. First, we can't
assume ${srcdir}/${subdir}/${srcfile} directory exists on remote host,
so this patch changes it to match ${srcfile} only on remote host.
Second, regexp pattern ".*/${srcfile}" isn't friendly to Windows path.
The file name is "basics.c" in my test env and can't match the pattern
due to "/" in it. Remove "/" from the pattern.

gdb.dwarf2/file1.txt in source tree was removed. In some gdb.dwarf2/*.exp,
file1.txt is copied to host and then removed at the end. However, in
local-remote-host-notty.exp, ${board}_download doesn't copy the file but
return the absolute path of the src file. 'remote_file host delete' at
the end will remove the file in source tree.
This patch is to overwrite ${board}_file, and specially make "delete"
option do nothing. This approach is used in gdbserver-base.exp and

Hi,
I recently see the fail in dwzbuildid.exp below on some targets,
(gdb) print the_int
No symbol "the_int" in current context.
(gdb) FAIL: gdb.dwarf2/dwzbuildid.exp: mismatch: print the_int
Looks the pattern expects to see "No symbol table is loaded", which
is emitted in c-exp.y,
variable: name_not_typename
....
if (msymbol.minsym != NULL)
write_exp_msymbol (pstate, msymbol);
else if (!have_full_symbols () && !have_partial_symbols ())
error (_("No symbol table is loaded. Use the \"file\" command."));
else
error (_("No symbol \"%s\" in current context."),
copy_name ($1.stoken));
it is expected to have no full symbols nor partial symbols, but something
brings full symbols or partial symbols in. I added "maint info symtabs"
and "maint info psymtabs" in dwzbuildid.exp, and it shows symbols are from
ld.so, which has debug information. Then, I reproduce the fail like this,
$ make check RUNTESTFLAGS="CFLAGS_FOR_TARGET='-Wl,-rpath=${glibc_build}:${glibc_build}/math -Wl,--dynamic-linker=${glibc_build}/elf/ld.so' dwzbuildid.exp"
${glibc_build} is the glibc build tree. Debug information is not striped,
so the test fail. However, if I strip debug information from libc.so, libm.so
and ld.so. The test passes.
This patch is to relax the pattern to match the both cases that glibc build
has and has not debug information.

In gdb.trace/unavailable.exp, an action is defined to collect
struct_b.struct_a.array[2] and struct_b.struct_a.array[100],
struct StructB
{
int d, ef;
StructA struct_a;
int s:1;
static StructA static_struct_a;
const char *string;
};
and the other files are not collected.
When GDB examine traceframe collected by the action, "struct_b" is
unavailable completely, which is wrong.
(gdb) p struct_b
$1 = <unavailable>
When GDB reads 'struct_b', it will request to read memory at struct_b's address
of length LEN. Since struct_b.d is not collected, no 'M' block
includes the first part of the desired range, so tfile_xfer_partial returns
TARGET_XFER_UNAVAILABLE and GDB thinks the whole requested range is unavailable.
In order to fix this problem, in the iteration to 'M' blocks, we record the
lowest address of blocks within the request range. If it has, the requested
range isn't unavailable completely. This applies to ctf too. With this patch
applied, the result looks good and fails in unavailable.exp is fixed.
(gdb) p struct_b
$1 = {d = <unavailable>, ef = <unavailable>, struct_a = {a = <unavailable>, b = <unavailable>, array = {<unavailable>,
<unavailable>, -1431655766, <unavailable> <repeats 97 times>, -1431655766, <unavailable> <repeats 9899 times>}, ptr = <unavailable>, bitfield = <unavailable>}, s = <unavailable>, static static_struct_a = {a = <unavailable>, b = <unavailable>, array = {<unavailable> <repeats 10000 times>}, ptr = <unavailable>,

This commit is actually an update to make the parser in
gdb/stap-probe.c be aware of all the possible prefixes that a probe
argument can have. According to the section "Argument Format" in:
<https://sourceware.org/systemtap/wiki/UserSpaceProbeImplementation>
The bitness of the arguments can be 8, 16, 32 or 64 bits, signed or
unsigned. Currently GDB recognizes only 32 and 64-bit arguments.
This commit extends this. It also provides a testcase, only for
x86_64 systems.

This commit fixes PR breakpoints/16889, which is about a bug that
triggers when GDB tries to parse probes whose arguments do not contain
the initial (and optional) "N@" part. For reference sake, the de
facto format is described here:
<https://sourceware.org/systemtap/wiki/UserSpaceProbeImplementation>
Anyway, this PR actually uncovered two bugs (related) that were
happening while parsing the arguments. The first one was that the
parser *was* catching *some* arguments that were missing the "N@"
part, but it wasn't correctly setting the argument's type. This was
causing a NULL pointer being dereferenced, ouch...
The second bug uncovered was that the parser was not catching all of
the cases for a probe which did not provide the "N@" part. The fix
for that was to simplify the check that the code was making to
identify non-prefixed probes. The code is simpler and easier to read
now.
I am also providing a testcase for this bug, only for x86_64
architectures.

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 "" ...

extended-remote gdbserver.

In Dwarf::assemble in dwz.exp, 10 is hard-coded in it,
subprogram {
{name main}
{low_pc main addr}
{high_pc "main + 10" addr}
}
however, the length of main function varies on architectures. The
hard-coded 10 here causes dwz.exp fails on some targets, such as
nios2.
This patch is to add some code to compute the length of function main,
which is similar to what we are doing in entry-values.exp.

On Linux, we need to explicitly ptrace attach to all lwps of a
process. Because GDB might not be connected yet when an attach is
requested, and thus it may not be possible to activate thread_db, as
that requires access to symbols (IOW, gdbserver --attach), a while ago
we make linux_attach loop over the lwps as listed by /proc/PID/task to
find the lwps to attach to.
linux_attach_lwp_1 has:
...
if (initial)
/* If lwp is the tgid, we handle adding existing threads later.
Otherwise we just add lwp without bothering about any other
threads. */
ptid = ptid_build (lwpid, lwpid, 0);
else
{
/* Note that extracting the pid from the current inferior is
safe, since we're always called in the context of the same
process as this new thread. */
int pid = pid_of (current_inferior);
ptid = ptid_build (pid, lwpid, 0);
}
That "safe" comment referred to linux_attach_lwp being called by
thread-db.c. But this was clearly missed when a new call to
linux_attach_lwp_1 was added to linux_attach. As a result,
current_inferior will be set to some random process, and non-initial
lwps of the second inferior get assigned the pid of the wrong
inferior. E.g., in the case of attaching to two inferiors, for the
second inferior (and so on), non-initial lwps of the second inferior
get assigned the pid of the first inferior. This doesn't trigger on
the first inferior, when current_inferior is NULL, add_thread switches
the current inferior to the newly added thread.
Rather than making linux_attach switch current_inferior temporarily
(thus avoiding further reliance on global state), or making
linux_attach_lwp_1 get the tgid from /proc, which add extra syscalls,
and will be wrong in case of the user having originally attached
directly to a non-tgid lwp, and then that lwp spawning new clones (the
ptid.pid field of further new clones should be the same as the
original lwp's pid, which is not the tgid), we note that callers of
linux_attach_lwp/linux_attach_lwp_1 always have the right pid handy
already, so they can pass it down along with the lwpid.
The only other reason for the "initial" parameter is to error out
instead of warn in case of attach failure, when we're first attaching
to a process. There are only three callers of
linux_attach_lwp/linux_attach_lwp_1, and each wants to print a
different warn/error string, so we can just move the error/warn out of
linux_attach_lwp_1 to the callers, thus getting rid of the "initial"
parameter.
There really nothing gdbserver-specific about attaching to two
threaded processes, so this adds a new test under gdb.multi/. The
test passes cleanly against the native GNU/Linux target, but
fails/triggers the bug against GDBserver (before the patch), with the
native-extended-remote board (as plain remote doesn't support
multi-process).
Tested on x86_64 Fedora 17, with the native-extended-gdbserver board.

For several RSP packets, there's a corresponding "set remote
foo-packet on/off/auto" command that one can use do bypass
auto-detection of support for the packet or feature. However, I
noticed that setting several of these commands to 'on' or 'off'
doesn't actually have any effect. These are, at least:
set remote breakpoint-commands-packet
set remote conditional-breakpoints-packet
set remote fast-tracepoints-packet
set remote static-tracepoints-packet
set remote install-in-trace-packet
These are commands that control a remote protocol feature that doesn't
have a corresponding regular packet, and because of that we cache the
knowledge of the remote side support as returned by the qSupported
packet in the remote_state object.
E.g., in the case of the 'set remote breakpoint-commands-packet'
command, whether the feature is supported is recorded in the
'breakpoint_commands' field of the remote_state object.
Whether to bypass packet support auto-detection or not is controlled
by the 'detect' field of the corresponding packet's packet_config
structure. That field is the variable associated directly with the
"set remote foo-packet" command. Actual remote stub support for the
packet (or feature) is recorded in the 'support' field of the same
structure.
However, when the user toggles the command, the 'support' field is
also correspondingly updated to PACKET_ENABLE/DISABLE/SUPPORT_UNKNOWN,
discarding the knowledge of whether the target actually supports the
feature. If one toggles back to 'auto', it's no big issue for real
packets, as they'll just end up re-probed the next time they might be
necessary. But features whose support is only reported through
qSupported don't get their corresponding (manually added/maintained)
fields in remote_state objected updated. As we lost the actual status
of the target support for the feature, GDB would need to probe the
qSupported features again, which GDB doesn't do.
But we can avoid that extra traffic, and clean things up, IMO.
Instead of going in that direction, this patch completely decouples
struct packet_config's 'detect' and 'support' fields. E.g., when the
user does "set remote foo-packet off", instead of setting the packet
config's 'support' field to PACKET_DISABLE, the 'support' field is not
touched at all anymore. That is, we end up respecting this simple
table:
| packet_config->detect | packet_config->support | should use packet/feature? |
|-----------------------+------------------------+----------------------------|
| auto | PACKET_ENABLE | PACKET_ENABLE |
| auto | PACKET_DISABLE | PACKET_DISABLE |
| auto | PACKET_UNKNOWN | PACKET_UNKNOWN |
| yes | don't care | PACKET_ENABLE |
| no | don't care | PACKET_DISABLE |
This is implemented by the new packet_support function. With that, we
need to update this pattern throughout:
if (remote_protocol_packets[PACKET_foo].support == PACKET_DISABLE)
to do this instead:
if (packet_support (PACKET_qAttached) == PACKET_DISABLE)
where as mentioned, the packet_support function takes struct
packet_config's 'detect' field into account, like in the table above.
As when the packet is force-disabled or force-enabled, the 'support'
field is just ignored, if the command is set back to auto, we'll
resume respecting whatever the target said it supports. IOW, the end
result is that the 'support' field always represents whether the
target actually supports the packet or not.
After all that, the manually maintained breakpoint_commands and
equivalent fields of struct remote_state can then be eliminated, with
references replaced by checking the result of calling the
packet_support function on the corresponding packet or feature. This
required adding new PACKET_foo enum values for several features that
didn't have it yet. (The patch does not add corresponding "set remote
foo-packet" style commands though, focusing only on bug fixing and
laying the groundwork).
Tested on x86_64 Fedora 17, native GDBserver. The new tests all fail
without this patch.

This patch adds support for the Intel(R) Advanced Vector
Extensions 512 (Intel(R) AVX-512) registers. Native and remote
debugging are covered by this patch.
Intel(R) AVX-512 is an extension to AVX to support 512-bit wide
SIMD registers in 64-bit mode (XMM0-XMM31, YMM0-YMM31, ZMM0-ZMM31).
The number of available registers in 32-bit mode is still 8
(XMM0-7, YMM0-7, ZMM0-7). The lower 256-bits of the ZMM registers
are aliased to the respective 256-bit YMM registers. The lower
128-bits are aliased to the respective 128-bit XMM registers.
There are also 8 new, dedicated mask registers (K0-K7) in both 32-bit
mode and 64-bit mode.

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"

21 }
(gdb) FAIL: gdb.base/break-unload-file.exp: always-inserted on: break: continue
(This is a regression caused by the remove-symbol-file command
series.)
break-unload-file.exp is about having breakpoints inserted, and then
doing "file". I caught this while writing a test that does "file
PROGRAM", while PROGRAM was already loaded, which internally does
"file" first, because I wanted to force a breakpoint_re_set, but the
test is more explicit in case GDB ever optimizes out that re-set.
The problem is that unloading the file with "file" ends up in
disable_breakpoints_in_freed_objfile, which marks all breakpoint
locations of the objfile as both shlib_disabled, _and_ clears the
inserted flag, without actually removing the breakpoints from the
inferior. Now, usually, in all-stop, breakpoints will already be
removed from the inferior before the user can issue the "file"
command, but, with non-stop, or breakpoints always-inserted on mode,
breakpoints stay inserted even while the user has the prompt. In the
latter case, then, if we let the program continue, and it executes the
address where we had previously set the breakpoint, it'll actually
execute the breakpoint instruction that we left behind...
Now, one issue is that the intent of
disable_breakpoints_in_freed_objfile is really to handle the unloading
of OBJF_USERLOADED objfiles. These are objfiles that were added with
add-symbol-file and that are removed with remove-symbol-file.
"add-symbol-file"'s docs in the manual clearly say these commands are
used to let GDB know about dynamically loaded code:
You would use this command when @var{filename} has been dynamically
loaded (by some other means) into the program that is running.
Similarly, the online help says:
(gdb) help add-symbol-file
Load symbols from FILE, assuming FILE has been dynamically loaded.
So it makes sense to, like when shared libraries are unloaded through
the generic solib machinery, mark the breakpoint locations as
shlib_disabled. But, the "file" command is not about dynamically
loaded code, it's about the main program. So the patch makes
disable_breakpoints_in_freed_objfile skip all objfiles but
OBJF_USERLOADED ones, thus skipping the main objfile.
Then, the reason that disable_breakpoints_in_freed_objfile was
clearing the inserted flag isn't clear, but likely to avoid breakpoint
removal errors, assuming remove-symbol-file was called after the
dynamic object was already unmapped from the inferior. In that case,
it'd okay to simply clear the inserted flag, but not so if the user
for example does remove-symbol-file to remove the library because he
made a mistake in the library's address, and wants to re-do
add-symbol-file with the correct address.
To address all that, I propose an alternative implementation, that
handles both cases. The patch includes changes to sym-file.exp to
cover them.
This implementation leaves the inserted flag alone, and handles
breakpoint insertion/removal failure gracefully when the locations are
in OBJF_USERLOADED objfiles, just like we handle insertion/removal
failure gracefully for locations in shared libraries.
To try to make sure we aren't patching back stale shadow memory
contents into the inferior, in case the program mapped a different
library at the same address where we had the breakpoint, without the
user having had a chance of remove-symbol-file'ing before, this adds a
new memory_validate_breakpoint function that checks if the breakpoint
instruction is still in memory. ppc_linux_memory_remove_breakpoint
does this unconditionally for all memory breakpoints, and questions
whether memory_remove_breakpoint should be changed to do this for all
breakpoints. Possibly yes, though I'm not certain, hence this
baby-steps patch.
Tested on x86_64 Fedora 17, native and gdbserver.

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.

(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.

FAIL: gdb.base/consecutive-step-over.exp: continue to breakpoint: break here (GDB internal error)
The assertion fails, because the code is not expecting that the event
thread itself might need another step over. IOW, not expecting that
TP in:
tp = find_thread_needs_step_over (stepping_thread != NULL,
stepping_thread);
could be the event thread.
A small fix for this would be to clear the event thread's
trap_expected earlier, before asserting. But looking deeper, although
currently_stepping_or_nexting_callback's intention is finding the
thread that is doing a step/next, it also returns the thread that is
doing a step-over dance, with trap_expected set. If there ever was a
reason for that (it was I who added
currently_stepping_or_nexting_callback , but I can't recall why I put
trap_expected there in the first place), the only remaining reason
nowadays is to aid in implementing switch_back_to_stepped_thread's
assertion that is now triggering, by piggybacking on the walk over all
threads, thus avoiding a separate walk. This is quite obscure, and I
think we can do even better, by merging the walks that look for the
stepping thread, and the walk that looks for some thread that might
need a step over.

In gdb.trace/tfile.exp, we execute binary to generate tracefile,

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.

This PR is about an assertion failure in GDB that can be triggered by
setting "backtrace limit" to a value that causes GDB to stop unwinding
after an inline frame. In this case, an assertion in
inline_frame_this_id will trigger:
/* We need a valid frame ID, so we need to be based on a valid
frame. (...). */
gdb_assert (frame_id_p (*this_id));
Looking at the function:
static void
inline_frame_this_id (struct frame_info *this_frame,
void **this_cache,
struct frame_id *this_id)
{
struct symbol *func;
/* In order to have a stable frame ID for a given inline function,
we must get the stack / special addresses from the underlying
real frame's this_id method. So we must call get_prev_frame.
Because we are inlined into some function, there must be previous
frames, so this is safe - as long as we're careful not to
create any cycles. */
*this_id = get_frame_id (get_prev_frame (this_frame));
we see we're computing the frame id for the inline frame. If this is
an inline frame, which is a virtual frame constructed based on debug
info, on top of a real stack frame, we should _always_ be able to find
where the frame was inlined into, as that ultimately just means
peeling off the virtual frames on top of the real stack frame. If
there ultimately was no prev (real) stack frame, then we wouldn't have
been able to construct the inline frame either, by design. That's
what the assertion catches.
So we have an inline frame, we should _always_ be able to compute its
ID, even if that means bypassing the user backtrace limits to get at
the real stack frame's info. The problem is that inline_frame_id
calls get_prev_frame, and that takes user backtrace limits into
account. Code that wants to bypass the limits calls get_prev_frame_1
instead.
Note how get_prev_frame_1 already skips all checks for inline frames:
/* If we are unwinding from an inline frame, all of the below tests
were already performed when we unwound from the next non-inline
frame. We must skip them, since we can not get THIS_FRAME's ID
until we have unwound all the way down to the previous non-inline
frame. */
if (get_frame_type (this_frame) == INLINE_FRAME)
return get_prev_frame_if_no_cycle (this_frame);
And note how the related frame_unwind_caller_id function also uses
get_prev_frame_1:
struct frame_id
frame_unwind_caller_id (struct frame_info *next_frame)
{
struct frame_info *this_frame;
/* Use get_prev_frame_1, and not get_prev_frame. The latter will truncate
the frame chain, leading to this function unintentionally
returning a null_frame_id (e.g., when a caller requests the frame
ID of "main()"s caller. */
next_frame = skip_artificial_frames (next_frame);
this_frame = get_prev_frame_1 (next_frame);
if (this_frame)
return get_frame_id (skip_artificial_frames (this_frame));
else
return null_frame_id;
}
get_prev_frame_1 is currently static in frame.c. As a _1 suffix is
not a good name for an extern function, I've renamed it.

Hi,

p ctable1[163]
$204 = 163 '£'
(gdb) FAIL: gdb.base/printcmds.exp: p ctable1[163]
however, on linux host,
p ctable1[163]
$205 = 163 '\243'

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

This test uses a simple custom elf loader, implemented in
gdb.base/sym-file-loader.h|c. This loader doesn't have a dlclose-like
function today, but I'll need one. But, I found that the guts of the
loader are exposed too much to the client, making the interface more
complicated than necessary. It's simpler if the loader just exports a
few dlopen/dlsym -style functions. That's what this patch does.
Tested on x86_86 Fedora 17, native and gdbserver.

* gdb.base/sym-file-loader.c: Fix typo. SELF_LINK, not SELK_LINK.
The main issue here is that this test passes the host's absolute path
to the library to load to the "dlopen"-like routine, which doesn't
work when either the target or the host are remote, unless a shared
filesystem has been set up.
Tests that dynamically load a library solve this by dlopen'ing by
basename, and setting rpath to $ORIGIN. See gdb_compile.
This test doesn't use dlopen, but instead uses its own simple elf
loader. The fix is to pass this loader the library basename, and
teach it to look up the library by basename in the executable's
directory as well, i.e., assuming/emulating RPATH=$ORIGIN.
Tested on x86_64 Fedora 17, native and gdbserver.
I looked around in the web to figure out Linux's /proc/self/exe
equivalents in other ELF OSs. I think I covered all relevant, but if
not, I think it'll be simple enough to add more. (Note the test is
skipped on non-ELF targets.)

symbol_matches_domain was permitting searches for a VAR_DOMAIN
symbol to also match STRUCT_DOMAIN symbols for languages like C++
where STRUCT_DOMAIN symbols also define a typedef of the same name,
e.g., "struct foo {}" introduces a typedef of the name "foo".
Problems occur if there exists both a VAR_DOMAIN and STRUCT_DOMAIN
symbol of the same name. Then it is essentially a race between which
symbol is found first. The other symbol is obscurred.
[This is a relatively common idiom: enum e { ... } e;]
This patchset moves this "language defines a typedef" logic to
lookup_symbol[_in_language], looking first for a symbol in the given
domain and falling back to searching STRUCT_DOMAIN when/if appropriate.

This adds support for the C++11 "enum class" feature. This is
PR c++/15246.
I chose to use the existing TYPE_DECLARED_CLASS rather than introduce
a new type code. This seemed both simple and clear to me.
I made overloading support for the new enum types strict. This is how
it works in C++; and it didn't seem like an undue burden to keep this,
particularly because enum constants are printed symbolically by gdb.

While trying to fix hbreak2.exp against GDBserver I noticed this...

Sending packet: $Z1,40058f,1;X3,220127#9b...
*hangs forever*
The issue is that nothing advances the packet pointer if
add_breakpoint_condition either fails to parse the agent expression,
or fails to find the breakpoint, resulting in an infinite loop in
process_point_options. The latter case should really be fixed by
GDBserver tracking GDB Z1 breakpoints in its breakpoint structures
like Z0 breakpoints are, but the latter case still needs handling.
add_breakpoint_commands has the same issue, though at present I don't
know any way to trigger it other than sending a manually cooked
packet.
Unbelievably, it doesn't look like we have any test that tries setting
a conditional hardware breakpoint. Looking at cond-eval-mode.exp, it
looks like the file was meant to actually test something, but it's
mostly empty today. This patch adds tests that tries all sorts of
conditional breakpoints and watchpoints. The test hangs/fails without
the GDBserver fix.

In the test, the comment says "# Send \026@ instead of just @ in case

Ctrl-V (\026) is to escape the next character. However, we don't have
to do so on mingw. This patch is to disable ctrl-v usage on mingw

HOME is a windows path, like C:\foo\bar. When it is used in gdb_test to match

* gdb.base/source-dir.exp: Allow ';' as a directory separator.
Given the following variable...
BT : Bounded := New_Bounded (Low => 1, High => 3);
... where type Bounded is defined as a simple unconstrained array:
type Bounded is array (Integer range <>) of Integer;
Creating a varobj for that variable, and immediately asking for
varobj updates, GDB says that our varobj changed types!
(gdb)
-var-create bt * bt
^done,name="bt",numchild="3",value="[3]",type="<ref> array (1 .. 3) of integer",has_more="0"
(gdb)
-var-update 1 *
^done,changelist=[{name="bt",value="[3]",in_scope="true",type_changed="true",new_type="<ref> array (1 .. 3) of integer",new_num_children="3",has_more="0"}]
The expected output for the -var-update command is, in this case:
(gdb)
-var-update 1 *
^done,changelist=[]
The problem occurs because the ada-varobj module does not handle
references, and while the references gets stripped when the varobj
gets created, it doesn't when computing varobj updates.
More specifically, when creating the varobj, varobj_create creates
a new value which is a reference to a TYPE_CODE_ARRAY. It then calls
install_new_value which calls coerce_ref with the following comment:
/* We are not interested in the address of references, and given
that in C++ a reference is not rebindable, it cannot
meaningfully change. So, get hold of the real value. */
if (value)
value = coerce_ref (value);
This leaves the varobj's type component still a ref, while
the varobj's value is now our array, without the ref. This explains
why the "value" field in the varobj indicates an array with 3 elements
"[3]" while the "type" field shows a ref to an array. Generally
speaking, most users have said that showing the ref was a useful
piece of information, so this patch is not touching this part.
Next, when the user issues the -var-update request, varobj_update
calls value_of_root to compute the varobj's new value as well as
determine whether the value's type has changed or not. What happens
in a nutshell is that it calls value_of_root_1 (which re-evaluates
the expression and returns the corresponding new value), finds that
the new value is not NULL, and thus asks whether it has mutated:
else if (varobj_value_has_mutated (var, value, value_type (value)))
This then indirectly delegates the determination to the language-specific
callback, which fails, because it does not handle references.
This patch fixes the issue by adjusting varobj_value_has_mutated to
expect references, and strip them when seen. This allows the various
language-specific implementations to remain unaware of references.
gdb/ChangeLog:
* varobj.c (varobj_value_has_mutated): If NEW_VALUE is
a reference, strip the reference layer before calling

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

The problem is that GDB gave the prompt back to the user too early.
This happens when calling functions while handling an event that
doesn't cause a user visible stop. dprintf with "set dprintf-style
gdb" is one such case. This patch adds a test case that has a
breakpoint with a condition that calls a function that returns false,
so that regression testing isn't dependent on the implementation of
dprintf.
The problem happens because run_inferior_call causes GDB to forget
that it is running in sync_execution mode, so any event that runs an
inferior call causes fetch_inferior_event to display the prompt, even
if the event should not result in a user visible stop (that is, gdb
resumes the inferior and waits for the next event).
This patch fixes the issue by noticing when GDB was in sync_execution
mode in run_inferior_call, and taking care to restore this state
afterward.

This test fails with current mainline.
If the program stopped for a breakpoint in thread 1, and then the user
switches to thread 2, and resumes the program, GDB first switches back
to thread 1 to step it over the breakpoint, in order to make progress.
However, that logic only considers the last reported event, assuming
only one thread needs that stepping over dance.
That's actually not true when we play with scheduler-locking. The
patch adds an example to the testsuite of multiple threads needing a
step-over before the stepping thread can be resumed. With current
mainline, the program re-traps the same breakpoint it had already
trapped before.

Adjust expected infrun debug output.
Even with deferred_step_ptid out of the way, GDB can still lose
watchpoints.
If a watchpoint triggers and the PC points to an address where a
thread-specific breakpoint for another thread is set, the thread-hop
code triggers, and we lose the watchpoint:
if (ecs->event_thread->suspend.stop_signal == GDB_SIGNAL_TRAP)
{
int thread_hop_needed = 0;
struct address_space *aspace =
get_regcache_aspace (get_thread_regcache (ecs->ptid));
/* Check if a regular breakpoint has been hit before checking
for a potential single step breakpoint. Otherwise, GDB will
not see this breakpoint hit when stepping onto breakpoints. */
if (regular_breakpoint_inserted_here_p (aspace, stop_pc))
{
if (!breakpoint_thread_match (aspace, stop_pc, ecs->ptid))
thread_hop_needed = 1;
^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
}
And on software single-step targets, even without a thread-specific
breakpoint in the way, here in the thread-hop code:
else if (singlestep_breakpoints_inserted_p)
{
...
if (!ptid_equal (singlestep_ptid, ecs->ptid)
&& in_thread_list (singlestep_ptid))
{
/* If the PC of the thread we were trying to single-step
has changed, discard this event (which we were going
to ignore anyway), and pretend we saw that thread
trap. This prevents us continuously moving the
single-step breakpoint forward, one instruction at a
time. If the PC has changed, then the thread we were
trying to single-step has trapped or been signalled,
but the event has not been reported to GDB yet.
There might be some cases where this loses signal
information, if a signal has arrived at exactly the
same time that the PC changed, but this is the best
we can do with the information available. Perhaps we
should arrange to report all events for all threads
when they stop, or to re-poll the remote looking for
this particular thread (i.e. temporarily enable
schedlock). */
CORE_ADDR new_singlestep_pc
= regcache_read_pc (get_thread_regcache (singlestep_ptid));
if (new_singlestep_pc != singlestep_pc)
{
enum gdb_signal stop_signal;
if (debug_infrun)
fprintf_unfiltered (gdb_stdlog, "infrun: unexpected thread,"
" but expected thread advanced also\n");
/* The current context still belongs to
singlestep_ptid. Don't swap here, since that's
the context we want to use. Just fudge our
state and continue. */
stop_signal = ecs->event_thread->suspend.stop_signal;
ecs->event_thread->suspend.stop_signal = GDB_SIGNAL_0;
ecs->ptid = singlestep_ptid;
ecs->event_thread = find_thread_ptid (ecs->ptid);
ecs->event_thread->suspend.stop_signal = stop_signal;
stop_pc = new_singlestep_pc;
}
else
{
if (debug_infrun)
fprintf_unfiltered (gdb_stdlog,
"infrun: unexpected thread\n");
thread_hop_needed = 1;
stepping_past_singlestep_breakpoint = 1;
saved_singlestep_ptid = singlestep_ptid;
}
}
}
we either end up with thread_hop_needed, ignoring the watchpoint
SIGTRAP, or switch to the stepping thread, again ignoring that the
SIGTRAP could be for some other event.
The new test added by this patch exercises both paths.
So the fix is similar to the deferred_step_ptid fix -- defer the
thread hop to _after_ the SIGTRAP had a change of passing through the
regular bpstat handling. If the wrong thread hits a breakpoint, we'll
just end up with BPSTAT_WHAT_SINGLE, and if nothing causes a stop,
keep_going starts a step-over.
Most of the stepping_past_singlestep_breakpoint mechanism is really
not necessary -- setting the thread to step over a breakpoint with
thread->trap_expected is sufficient to keep all other threads locked.
It's best to still keep the flag in some form though, because when we
get to keep_going, the software single-step breakpoint we need to step
over is already gone -- an optimization done by a follow up patch will
check whether a step-over is still be necessary by looking to see
whether the breakpoint is still there, and would find the thread no
longer needs a step-over, while we still want it.
Special care is still needed to handle the case of PC of the thread we
were trying to single-step having changed, like in the old code. We
can't just keep_going and re-step it, as in that case we can over-step
the thread (if it was already done with the step, but hasn't reported
it yet, we'd ask it to step even further). That's now handled in
switch_back_to_stepped_thread. As bonus, we're now using a technique
that doesn't lose signals, unlike the old code -- we now insert a
breakpoint at PC, and resume, which either reports the breakpoint
immediately, or any pending signal.
Tested on x86_64 Fedora 17, against pristine mainline, and against a
branch that implements software single-step on x86.

Say the program is stopped at a breakpoint, and the user sets a
watchpoint. When the program is next resumed, GDB will first step
over the breakpoint, as explained in the manual:
@value {GDBN} normally ignores breakpoints when it resumes
execution, until at least one instruction has been executed. If it
it did not do this, you would be unable to proceed past a breakpoint
without first disabling the breakpoint. This rule applies whether
or not the breakpoint already existed when your program stopped.
However, GDB currently also removes watchpoints, catchpoints, etc.,
and that means that the first instruction off the breakpoint does not
trigger the watchpoint, catchpoint, etc.
testsuite/gdb.base/watchpoint.exp has a kfail for this.
The PR proposes installing watchpoints only when stepping over a
breakpoint, but that misses catchpoints, etc.
A better fix would instead work from the opposite direction -- remove
only real breakpoints, leaving all other kinds of breakpoints
inserted.
But, going further, it's really a waste to constantly remove/insert
all breakpoints when stepping over a single breakpoint (generating a
pair of RSP z/Z packets for each breakpoint), so the fix goes a step
further and makes GDB remove _only_ the breakpoint being stepped over,
leaving all others installed. This then has the added benefit of
reducing breakpoint-related RSP traffic substancialy when there are
many breakpoints set.

Consider the case of the user doing "step" in thread 2, while thread 1
had previously stopped for a breakpoint. In order to make progress,
GDB makes thread 1 step over its breakpoint first (with all other
threads stopped), and once that is over, thread 2 then starts stepping
(with thread 1 and all others running free, by default). If GDB
didn't do that, thread 1 would just trip on the same breakpoint
immediately again. This is what the prepare_to_proceed /
deferred_step_ptid code is all about.
However, deferred_step_ptid code resumes the target with:
resume (1, GDB_SIGNAL_0);
prepare_to_wait (ecs);
return;
Recall we were just stepping over a breakpoint when we get here. That
means that _nothing_ had installed breakpoints yet! If there's
another breakpoint just after the breakpoint that was just stepped,
we'll miss it. The fix for that would be to use keep_going instead.
However, there are more problems. What if the instruction that was
just single-stepped triggers a watchpoint? Currently, GDB just
happily resumes the thread, losing that too...
Missed watchpoints will need yet further fixes, but we should keep
those in mind.
So the fix must be to let the trap fall through the regular bpstat
handling, and only if no breakpoint, watchpoint, etc. claims the trap,
shall we switch back to the stepped thread.
Now, nowadays, we have code at the tail end of trap handling that does
exactly that -- switch back to the stepped thread
(switch_back_to_the_stepped_thread).
So the deferred_step_ptid code is just standing in the way, and can
simply be eliminated, fixing bugs in the process. Sweet.
The comment about spurious "Switching to ..." made me pause, but is
actually stale nowadays. That isn't needed anymore.
previous_inferior_ptid used to be re-set at each (internal) event, but
now it's only touched in proceed and normal stop.
The two tests added by this patch fail without the fix.

For now, let's focus only on the *stopped event. We see that the
async output is missing frame info. And this causes a test failure in
async mode, as "mi_expect_stop solib-event" wants to see the frame
info.
However, if we compare the event output when a real MI execution
command is used, compared to a CLI command (e.g., run vs -exec-run,
next vs -exec-next, etc.), we see:

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.

- None (None)
(gdb) help target child

It's also odd that e.g., the Windows port says "Unix" in reaction to
"target child" (it was already that way before Windows used
inf-child.c):

* gdb.base/default.exp: Update "target child" and "target procfs"
tests to not expect "Unix".
A patch in the target cleanup series caused a regression when using
record with target-async. Version 4 of the patch is here:
https://sourceware.org/ml/gdb-patches/2014-03/msg00159.html
The immediate problem is that record supplies to_can_async_p and
to_is_async_p methods, but does not supply a to_async method. So,
when target-async is set, record claims to support async -- but if the
underlying target does not support async, then the to_async method
call will end up in that method's default implementation, namely
tcomplain.
This worked previously because the record target used to provide a
to_async method; one that (erroneously, only at push time) checked the
other members of the target stack, and then simply dropped to_async
calls in the "does not implement async" case.
My first thought was to simply drop tcomplain as the default for
to_async. This works, but Pedro pointed out that the only reason
record has to supply to_can_async_p and to_is_async_p is that these
default to using the find_default_run_target machinery -- and these
defaults are only needed by "run" and "attach".
So, a nicer solution presents itself: change run and attach to
explicitly call into the default run target when needed; and change
to_is_async_p and to_can_async_p to default to "return 0". This makes
the target stack simpler to use and lets us remove the method
implementations from record. This is also in harmony with other plans
for the target stack; namely trying to reduce the impact of
find_default_run_target. This approach makes it clear that
find_default_is_async_p is not needed -- it is asking whether a target
that may not even be pushed is actually async, which seems like a
nonsensical question.
While an improvement, this approach proved to introduce the same bug
when using the core target. Looking a bit deeper, the issue is that
code in "attach" and "run" may need to use either the current target
stack or the default run target -- but different calls into the target
API in those functions could wind up querying different targets.
This new patch makes the target to use more explicit in "run" and
"attach". Then these commands explicitly make the needed calls
against that target. This ensures that a single target is used for
all relevant operations. This lets us remove a couple find_default_*
functions from various targets, including the dummy target. I think
this is a decent understandability improvement.
One issue I see with this patch is that the new calls in "run" and
"attach" are not very much like the rest of the target API. I think
fundamentally this is due to bad factoring in the target API, which
may need to be fixed for multi-target. Tackling that seemed ambitious
for a regression fix.
While working on this I noticed that there don't seem to be any test
cases that involve both target-async and record, so this patch changes
break-precsave.exp to add some. It also changes corefile.exp to add
some target-async tests; these pass with current trunk and with this
patch applied, but fail with the v1 patch.
This patch differs from v4 in that it moves initialization of
to_can_async_p and to_supports_non_stop into inf-child, adds some
assertions to complete_target_initialization, and adds some comments
to target.h.

On PPC64, 'func' and 'main' are function descriptors and don't point
to the actual code. Thus the usage of these symbols in the DWARF
assembler source was broken. The patch introduces new labels
func_start and func_end for this purpose.
A "side effect" of the migration to Dwarf::assemble is that the DWARF
address size is now automatically adjusted to the target architecture.
The original assembler source hard-coded the DWARF address size to 4,
even on 64-bit architectures. This address size mismatch caused a
test case failure on s390x due to a wrong result from DW_OP_deref.
Now that prepare_for_testing etc. can cope with absolute path names,
this can be exploited for test cases with generated source files.
This is just to simplify the code and shouldn't cause any functional
change.
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.
When evaluating an expression, if it is of a tagged type, GDB reads
the tag in memory and deduces the full view. At parsing time, however,
this operation is done only in the case of OP_VAR_VALUE. ptype does
not go through a full evaluation of expressions so it may return some
odd results:
(gdb) print c.menu_name
$1 = 0x0
(gdb) ptype $
type = system.strings.string_access
(gdb) ptype c.menu_name
type = <void>
This change removes this peculiarity by extending the tag resolution
to UNOP_IND and STRUCTOP_STRUCT. As in the case of OP_VAR_VALUE, this
implies switching from EVAL_AVOID_SIDE_EFFECTS to EVAL_NORMAL when a
tagged type is dereferenced.

This patch fixes PR16508, which is about MI "-trace-find frame-number 0"
behaves differently from CLI "tfind 0". In CLI, we check both
status->running and status->filename, but in MI, we only check
status->running, which looks wrong to me. This patch moves the code
of checking to a new function check_trace_running, and use it in
both CLI and MI.
This patch also adds a test case pr16508.exp, which fails without this

I stumbled upon this when writing a patch to infrun.c, that made
handle_inferior_event & co fill in the cache before breakpoints were
removed from the target. Recall that wait_for_inferior flushes the
dcache for every event. So in that case, always-inserted mode was not
necessary to trigger this. It's just a convenient way to expose the
issue.
The dcache works at the raw memory level. We need to update it
whenever memory is written, no matter what kind of target memory
object was originally passed down by the caller. The issue is that
the dcache update code isn't reached when a caller explicitly writes
raw memory. Breakpoint insertion/removal is one such case --
mem-break.c uses target_write_read_memory/target_write_raw_memory.
The fix is to move the dcache update code from memory_xfer_partial_1
to raw_memory_xfer_partial so that it's always reachable.
When we do that, we can actually simplify a series of things.
memory_xfer_partial_1 no longer needs to handle writes for any kind of
memory object, and therefore dcache_xfer_memory no longer needs to
handle writes either. So the latter (dcache_xfer_memory) and its
callees can be simplified to only care about reads. While we're
touching dcache_xfer_memory's prototype, might as well rename it to
reflect that fact that it only handles reads, and make it follow the
new target_xfer_status/xfered_len style. This made me notice that
dcache_xfer_memory loses the real error status if a memory read fails:
we could have failed to read due to TARGET_XFER_E_UNAVAILABLE, for
instance, but we always return TARGET_XFER_E_IO, hence the FIXME note.
I felt that fixing that fell out of the scope of this patch.
Currently dcache_xfer_memory handles the case of a write failing. The
whole cache line is invalidated when that happens. However,
dcache_update, the sole mechanism for handling writes that will remain
after the patch, does not presently handle that scenario. That's a
bug. The patch makes it handle that, by passing down the
target_xfer_status status from the caller, so that it can better
decide what to do itself. While I was changing the function's
prototype, I constified the myaddr parameter, getting rid of the need
for the cast as seen in its existing caller.

Starting with DWARF version 4, the description of the DW_AT_high_pc
attribute was amended to say:
if it is of class constant, the value is an unsigned integer offset
which when added to the low PC gives the address of the first
location past the last instruction associated with the entity.
A change was made in Apr 27th, 2012 to reflect that change:
| commit 91da14142c

| Date: Fri Apr 27 18:55:19 2012 +0000
|
| * dwarf2read.c (dwarf2_get_pc_bounds): Check DW_AT_high_pc form to
| see whether it is an address or a constant offset from DW_AT_low_pc.
| (dwarf2_record_block_ranges): Likewise.
| (read_partial_die): Likewise.
Unfortunately, this new interpretation is now used regardless of
the CU's DWARF version. It turns out that one of WindRiver's compilers
(FTR: Diabdata 4.4) is generating DWARF version 2 info with
DW_AT_high_pc attributes improperly using the data4 form. Because of
that, we miscompute all high PCs incorrectly. This leads to a lot of
symtabs having overlapping ranges, which in turn causes havoc in
pc-to-symtab-and-line translations.
One visible effect is when inserting a breakpoint on a given function:
(gdb) b world
Breakpoint 1 at 0x4005c4
The source location of the breakpoint is missing. The output should be:
(gdb) b world
Breakpoint 1 at 0x4005c8: file dw2-rel-hi-pc-world.c, line 24.
What happens in this case is that the pc-to-SAL translation first
starts be trying to find the symtab associated to our PC using
each symtab's ranges. Because of the high_pc miscomputation,
many symtabs end up matching, and the heuristic trying to select
the most probable one unfortunately returns one that is unrelated
(it really had no change in this case to do any better). Once we
have the wrong symtab, the start searching the associated linetable,
where the addresses are correct, thus finding no match, and therefore
no SAL.
This patch is an attempt at handling the situation as gracefully
as we can, without guarantees. It introduces a new function
"attr_value_as_address" which uses the correct accessor for getting
the value of a given attribute. It then adjust the code throughout
this unit to use this function instead of assuming that addresses always
have the DW_FORM_addr format.
It also fixes the original issue of miscomputing the high_pc
by limiting the new interpretation of constant form DW_AT_high_pc
attributes to units using DWARF version 4 or later.

Consider the following Ada code:
-- An array whose index is an enumeration type with 128 enumerators.
type Enum_T is (Enum_000, Enum_001, [...], Enum_128);
type Table is array (Enum_T) of Boolean;
When the compiler is configured to generate pure DWARF debugging info,
trying to print type Table's description yields:
ptype pck.table
type = array (enum_000 .. -128) of boolean
The expected output was:
ptype pck.table
type = array (enum_000 .. enum_128) of boolean
The DWARF debugging info for our array looks like this:
<1><44>: Abbrev Number: 5 (DW_TAG_array_type)
<45> DW_AT_name : pck__table
<50> DW_AT_type : <0x28>
<2><54>: Abbrev Number: 6 (DW_TAG_subrange_type)
<55> DW_AT_type : <0x5c>
<59> DW_AT_lower_bound : 0
<5a> DW_AT_upper_bound : 128
The array index type is, by construction with the DWARF standard,
a subrange of our enumeration type, defined as follow:
<2><5b>: Abbrev Number: 0
<1><5c>: Abbrev Number: 7 (DW_TAG_enumeration_type)
<5d> DW_AT_name : pck__enum_t
<69> DW_AT_byte_size : 1
<2><6b>: Abbrev Number: 8 (DW_TAG_enumerator)
<6c> DW_AT_name : pck__enum_000
<7a> DW_AT_const_value : 0
[etc]
Therefore, while processing these DIEs, the array index type ends
up being a TYPE_CODE_RANGE whose target type is our enumeration type.
But the problem is that we read the upper bound as a negative value
(-128), which is then used as is by the type printer to print the
array upper bound. This negative value explains the "-128" in the
output.
To understand why the range type's upper bound is read as a negative
value, one needs to look at how it is determined, in read_subrange_type:
orig_base_type = die_type (die, cu);
base_type = check_typedef (orig_base_type);
[... high is first correctly read as 128, but then ...]
if (!TYPE_UNSIGNED (base_type) && (high & negative_mask))
high |= negative_mask;
The negative_mask is applied, here, because BASE_TYPE->FLAG_UNSIGNED
is not set. And the reason for that is because the base_type was only
partially constructed during the call to die_type. While the enum
is constructed on the fly by read_enumeration_type, its flag_unsigned
flag is only set later on, while creating the symbols corresponding to
the enum type's enumerators (see process_enumeration_scope), after
we've already finished creating our range type - and therefore too
late.
My first naive attempt at fixing this problem consisted in extracting
the part in process_enumeration_scope which processes all enumerators,
to generate the associated symbols, but more importantly set the type's
various flags when necessary. However, this does not always work well,
because we're still in the subrange_type's scope, and it might be
different from the scope where the enumeration type is defined.
So, instead, what this patch does to fix the issue is to extract
from process_enumeration_scope the part that determines whether
the enumeration type should have the flag_unsigned and/or the
flag_flag_enum flags set. It turns out that, aside from the code
implementing the loop, this part is fairly independent of the symbol
creation. With that part extracted, we can then use it at the end
of our enumeration type creation, to produce a type which should now
no longer need any adjustment.
Once the enumeration type produced is correctly marked as unsigned,
the subrange type's upper bound is then correctly read as an unsigned
value, therefore giving us an upper bound of 128 instead of -128.

Consider the following declarations in Ada...
type Item is range -32 .. 31;
for Item'Size use 6;
type Table is array (Natural range 0 .. 4) of Item;
pragma Pack (Table);
... which declare a packed array whose elements are 6 bits long.
The debugger currently does not notice that the array is packed,
and thus prints values of this type incorrectly. This can be seen
in the "ptype" output:
(gdb) ptype table
type = array (0 .. 4) of foo.item
Normally, the debugger should print:
(gdb) ptype table
type = array (0 .. 4) of foo.item <packed: 6-bit elements>
The debugging information for this array looks like this:
.uleb128 0xf # (DIE (0x15c) DW_TAG_array_type)
.long .LASF9 # DW_AT_name: "pck__table"
.byte 0x6 # DW_AT_bit_stride
.long 0x1a9 # DW_AT_type
.uleb128 0x10 # (DIE (0x16a) DW_TAG_subrange_type)
.long 0x3b # DW_AT_type
.byte 0 # DW_AT_lower_bound
.byte 0x4 # DW_AT_upper_bound
.byte 0 # end of children of DIE 0x15c
The interesting part is the DW_AT_bit_stride attribute, which tells
the size of the array elements is 6 bits, rather than the normal
element type's size.
This patch adds support for this attribute by first creating
gdbtypes.c::create_array_type_with_stride, which is an enhanced
version of create_array_type taking an extra parameter as the stride.
The old create_array_type can then be re-implemented very simply
by calling the new create_array_type_with_stride.
We can then use this new function from dwarf2read, to create
arrays with or without stride.

* gdbtypes.c (create_array_type_with_stride): New function,
renaming create_array_type, but with an added parameter
called "bit_stride".
(create_array_type): Re-implement using
create_array_type_with_stride.
* dwarf2read.c (read_array_type): Add support for DW_AT_byte_stride
and DW_AT_bit_stride attributes.
gdb/testsuite/ChangeLog:
* gdb.dwarf2/arr-stride.c: New file.
* gdb.dwarf2/arr-stride.exp: New file.
The test, relying purely on generating an assembly file, only
verifies the type description of our array. But I was also
able to verify manually that the debugger print values of these
types correctly as well (which was not the case prior to this
patch).
With the test changed as in the patch, against current mainline, we get:

(gdb) PASS: gdb.ada/tasks.exp: info tasks after hitting breakpoint
The breakpoint that caused a stop is breakpoint 3, but GDB end up
reporting (and running breakpoint commands of) "Breakpoint 2" instead.
The issue is that the bpstat_check_breakpoint_conditions logic of
"wrong thread" is missing the "wrong task" check. This is usually
harmless, because the thread hop code in infrun.c code that handles
wrong-task-hitting-breakpoint does check for task-specific breakpoints
(within breakpoint_thread_match):
/* Check if a regular breakpoint has been hit before checking
for a potential single step breakpoint. Otherwise, GDB will
not see this breakpoint hit when stepping onto breakpoints. */
if (regular_breakpoint_inserted_here_p (aspace, stop_pc))
{
if (!breakpoint_thread_match (aspace, stop_pc, ecs->ptid))
thread_hop_needed = 1;
}
IOW, usually, when one only has a task specific breakpoint at a given
address, things work correctly. Put another task-specific or
non-task-specific breakpoint there, and things break.
A patch that eliminates the special thread hop code in infrun.c is
what exposed this, as after that GDB solely relies on
bpstat_check_breakpoint_conditions to know whether the right or wrong
task hit a breakpoint. IOW, given the latent bug, Ada task-specific
breakpoints become non-task-specific, and that is caught by the
testsuite, as:
break break_me task 3

I realized that the name of this test only made sense when considering
the old (never committed) implementation of the fix that came along
with the test originally, that forced a schedlock while a step-resume
(to get over the signal handler) was inserted. The final solution
that went into the tree does not force that locking.
So this renames it to something more descriptive.

This is the continuation of what Joel proposed on:
<https://sourceware.org/ml/gdb-patches/2013-12/msg00977.html>
Now that I have already submitted and pushed the patch to split
i386_stap_parse_special_token into two smaller functions, it is indeed
simpler to understand this patch.
It occurs because, on x86, triplet displacement operands are allowed
(like "-4+8-20(%rbp)"), and the current parser for this expression is
buggy. It does not correctly extract the register name from the
expression, which leads to incorrect evaluation. The parser was also
being very "generous" with the expression, so I included a few more
checks to ensure that we're indeed dealing with a triplet displacement
operand.
This patch also includes testcases for the two different kind of
expressions that can be encountered on x86: the triplet displacement
(explained above) and the three-argument displacement (as in
"(%rbx,%ebx,-8)"). The tests are obviously arch-dependent and are
placed under gdb.arch/.

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.

Consider the following code:
type Color is (Black, Red, Green, Blue, White);
type Primary_Table is array (Color range Red .. Blue) of Boolean;
Prim : Primary_Table := (True, False, False);

(gdb) p prim'length
$2 = blue
The length returned should be an integer, not the array index type,
and this patch fixes this.
