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 .. }]

If an error is thrown during computing a frame id then the frame is left
in existence but without a valid frame id, this will trigger internal
errors if/when the frame is later visited (for example in a backtrace).
This patch catches errors raised while computing the frame id, and
arranges for the new frame, the one without a frame id, to be removed
from the linked list of frames.

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.

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.

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/.

Fix i386-sse-stack-align.exp regression since GDB_PARALLEL.
* gdb.arch/i386-sse-stack-align.exp: Use standard_output_file.
The powerpc64le-linux ABI specifies that when a 128-bit DFP value is
passed in a pair of floating-point registers, the first register holds
the most-significant part of the value. This is as opposed to the
usual rule on little-endian systems, where the first register would
hold the least-significant part.
This affects two places in GDB, the read/write routines for the
128-bit DFP pseudo-registers, and the function call / return
sequence. For the former, current code already distinguishes
between big- and little-endian targets, but gets the latter
wrong. This is presumably because *GCC* also got it wrong,
and GDB matches the old GCC behavior. But GCC is now fixed:
http://gcc.gnu.org/ml/gcc-patches/2013-11/msg02145.html
so GDB needs to be fixed too. (Old code shouldn't really be
an issue since there is no code "out there" so far that uses
dfp128 on little-endian ...)
gdb/ChangeLog:
* ppc-sysv-tdep.c (ppc64_sysv_abi_push_freg): Use correct order
within a register pair holding a DFP 128-bit value on little-endian.
(ppc64_sysv_abi_return_value_base): Likewise.
* rs6000-tdep.c (dfp_pseudo_register_read): Likewise.
(dfp_pseudo_register_write): Likewise.
gdb/testsuite/ChangeLog:
* gdb.arch/powerpc-d128-regs.exp: Enable on powerpc64*-*.
Many VSX test were failing on powerpc64le-linux, since -as opposed to the
AltiVec tests- there never were little-endian versions of the test patterns.
This patch adds such patterns, along the lines of altivec-regs.exp.
In addition, there is an actual code change required: For those VSX
registers that overlap a floating-point register, the FP register
overlaps the most-significant half of the VSX register both on big-
and little-endian systems. However, on little-endian systems, that
half is stored at an offset of 8 bytes (not 0). This works already
for the "real" FP registers, but current code gets it wrong for
the "extended" pseudo FP register GDB generates for the second
half of the VSX register bank.
This patch updates the corresponding pseudo read/write routines
to take the appropriate offset into consideration.
gdb/ChangeLog:
* rs6000-tdep.c (efpr_pseudo_register_read): Use correct offset
of the overlapped FP register within the VSX register on little-
endian platforms.
(efpr_pseudo_register_write): Likewise.
gdb/testsuite/ChangeLog:
* gdb.arch/vsx-regs.exp: Check target endianness. Provide variants
of the test patterns for use on little-endian systems.
A couple of AltiVec tests fail spuriously on powerpc64le-linux, because
they compare against an incorrect pattern. Note that those tests already
contain little-endian variants of the patterns, but those seem to have
bit-rotted a bit: when outputting a vector, GDB no longer omits trailing
zero elements (as it used to do in the past).
This patch updates the pattern to the new GDB output behavior.
In addition, the patch updates the endian test to use the new
gdb_test_multiple logic instead of gdb_expect.
gdb/testsuite/ChangeLog:
* gdb.arch/altivec-regs.exp: Use gdb_test_multiple for endian test.
(decimal_vector): Fix for little-endian.
breakpoint is set in a `ta 0x6d´ which is not a sigreturn syscall. In
these cases no rt_frame exists in the stack and thus the read PC is
wrong.

We've currently got 3 files doing open coded implementations of cpuid.
Each has its own set of workarounds and varying levels of how well
they're written and are generally hardcoded to specific cpuid functions.
If you try to build the latest gdb as a PIE on an i386 system, the build
will fail because one of them lacks PIC workarounds (wrt ebx).
Specifically, we have:
common/linux-btrace.c:
two copies of cpuid asm w/specific args, one has no workarounds
while the other implicitly does to avoid memcpy
go32-nat.c:
two copies of cpuid asm w/specific args, one has workarounds to
avoid memcpy
gdb/testsuite/gdb.arch/i386-cpuid.h:
one general cpuid asm w/many workarounds copied from older gcc
Fortunately, that last header there is pretty damn good -- it handles
lots of edge cases, the code is nice & tight (uses gcc asm operands
rather than manual movs), and is already almost a general library type
header. It's also the basis of what is now the public cpuid.h that is
shipped with gcc-4.3+.
So what I've done is pull that test header out and into gdb/common/
(not sure if there's a better place), synced to the version found in
gcc-4.8.0, put a wrapper API around it, and then cut over all the
existing call points to this new header.
Since the func already has support for "is cpuid supported on this proc",
it makes it trivial to push the i386/x86_64 ifdefs down into this wrapper
API too. Now it can be safely used for all targets and gcc will elide
the unused code for us.
I've verified the gdb.arch testsuite still passes, and this code compiles
for an armv7a host as well as x86_64. The go32-nat code has been left
ifdef-ed out until someone can test & verify the new stuff works (and if
it doesn't, figure out how to make the new code work).

The test case gdb.arch/system-gcore.exp is almost an identical copy of
gdb.base/gcore.exp. The only functional change is the additional
comparison of the "info reg system" command output.
It should be safe to perform this comparison on all architectures.
Thus the patch removes the arch-specific version and adds "info reg
system" to the common gcore test case instead.
Tested on i686-linux and s390x-linux.

--enable-64-bit-bfd. Basically the issue happens when dealing with "bl"
instructions: GDB does branch destination calculation and (wrongly)
sign-extends the PC. Here is a piece of his original message explaining
the problem:

Anyway, the fix is simple and Andrew himself provided it for us. It
took a while for me to figure out how to trigger the bug (in order to
write a testcase for it), but I finally made it.
The attached patch fixes the problem (by casting to `unsigned long'
instead of just `long'), and also includes a testcase to reproduce the
issue.
gdb/ChangeLog:
2013-04-22 Andrew Haley <aph@redhat.com>
* arm-tdep.c (BranchDest): Cast result as "unsigned long",
instead of "long".
gdb/testsuite/ChangeLog:
2013-04-22 Sergio Durigan Junior <sergiodj@redhat.com>
* gdb.arch/arm-bl-branch-dest.c: New file.
* gdb.arch/arm-bl-branch-dest.exp: Likewise.
Consider the following simple program:
.globl _start
.text
_start:
fldt val
.data
val: .byte 0x00,0x00,0x45,0x07,0x11,0x19,0x22,0xe9,0xfe,0xbf
With current GDB on x86-64 GNU/Linux hosts, after the moment the fldt
command has been executed the register st(0) looks like this,
according to the “info regs” output (TOP=7):
R7: Valid 0xffffffbffffffffeffffffe922191107450000 -0.910676542908976927
which is clearly wrong (just count its length). The problem is due to
the printf statement (see patch) printing a promoted integer value of
a char argument "raw[i]", and, since char is signed on x86-64
GNU/Linux, the erroneous “ffffff” are printed for the first three
bytes which turn out to be "negative". The fix is to use gdb_byte
instead which is unsigned (and is the type of value_contents(), the
type to be used for raw target bytes anyway). After the fix the value
will be printed correctly:
R7: Valid 0xbffee922191107450000 -0.910676542908976927
