DWARF: handle non-local references in nested functions
GDB's current behavior when dealing with non-local references in the context of nested fuctions is approximative: - code using valops.c:value_of_variable read the first available stack frame that holds the corresponding variable (whereas there can be multiple candidates for this); - code directly relying on read_var_value will instead read non-local variables in frames where they are not even defined. This change adds the necessary context to symbol reads (to get the block they belong to) and to blocks (the static link property, if any) so that GDB can make the proper decisions when dealing with non-local varibale references. gdb/ChangeLog: * ada-lang.c (ada_read_var_value): Add a var_block argument and pass it to default_read_var_value. * block.c (block_static_link): New accessor. * block.h (block_static_link): Declare it. * buildsym.c (finish_block_internal): Add a static_link argument.

Replace the block_found global with explicit data-flow
As Pedro suggested on gdb-patches@ (see https://sourceware.org/ml/gdb-patches/2015-05/msg00714.html), this change makes symbol lookup functions return a structure that includes both the symbol found and the block in which it was found.

stdint.h was added to common-defs.h some months ago and should no longer be included directly by any file. gdb_assert.h was added to common-defs.h nearly a year ago, but three includes have crept in since then.

compile: gdb_stdout -> gdb_stdlog
Please send debug output to gdb_stdlog. OK but gdb/compile/ is using now only gdb_stdout; the error above is due to a copy-paste.

Split TRY_CATCH into TRY + CATCH
This patch splits the TRY_CATCH macro into three, so that we go from this: ~~~ volatile gdb_exception ex; TRY_CATCH (ex, RETURN_MASK_ERROR) { } if (ex.reason < 0) { } ~~~ to this: ~~~ TRY { } CATCH (ex, RETURN_MASK_ERROR) { } END_CATCH ~~~ Thus, we'll be getting rid of the local volatile exception object, and declaring the caught exception in the catch block. This allows reimplementing TRY/CATCH in terms of C++ exceptions when building in C++ mode, while still allowing to build GDB in C mode (using setjmp/longjmp), as a transition step. TBC, after this patch, is it _not_ valid to have code between the TRY and the CATCH blocks, like: TRY { } // some code here. CATCH (ex, RETURN_MASK_ERROR) { } END_CATCH Just like it isn't valid to do that with C++'s native try/catch. By switching to creating the exception object inside the CATCH block scope, we can get rid of all the explicitly allocated volatile exception objects all over the tree, and map the CATCH block more directly to C++'s catch blocks. The majority of the TRY_CATCH -> TRY+CATCH+END_CATCH conversion was done with a script, rerun from scratch at every rebase, no manual editing involved. After the mechanical conversion, a few places needed manual intervention, to fix preexisting cases where we were using the exception object outside of the TRY_CATCH block, and cases where we were using "else" after a 'if (ex.reason) < 0)' [a CATCH after this patch]. The result was folded into this patch so that GDB still builds at each incremental step. END_CATCH is necessary for two reasons: First, because we name the exception object in the CATCH block, which requires creating a scope, which in turn must be closed somewhere. Declaring the exception variable in the initializer field of a for block, like: #define CATCH(EXCEPTION, mask) \ for (struct gdb_exception EXCEPTION; \ exceptions_state_mc_catch (&EXCEPTION, MASK); \ EXCEPTION = exception_none) would avoid needing END_CATCH, but alas, in C mode, we build with C90, which doesn't allow mixed declarations and code. Second, because when TRY/CATCH are wired to real C++ try/catch, as long as we need to handle cleanup chains, even if there's no CATCH block that wants to catch the exception, we need for stop at every frame in the unwind chain and run cleanups, then rethrow. That will be done in END_CATCH. After we require C++, we'll still need TRY/CATCH/END_CATCH until cleanups are completely phased out -- TRY/CATCH in C++ mode will save/restore the current cleanup chain, like in C mode, and END_CATCH catches otherwise uncaugh exceptions, runs cleanups and rethrows, so that C++ cleanups and exceptions can coexist. IMO, this still makes the TRY/CATCH code look a bit more like a newcomer would expect, so IMO worth it even if we weren't considering C++. gdb/ChangeLog. 2015-03-07 Pedro Alves <palves@redhat.com> * common/common-exceptions.c (struct catcher) <exception>: No longer a pointer to volatile exception. Now an exception value. <mask>: Delete field. (exceptions_state_mc_init): Remove all parameters. Adjust. (exceptions_state_mc): No longer pop the catcher here.

Normalize TRY_CATCH exception handling block
This normalizes some exception catch blocks that check for ex.reason to look like this: ~~~ volatile gdb_exception ex; TRY_CATCH (ex, RETURN_MASK_ALL) { ... } if (ex.reason < 0) { ... } ~~~ This is a preparation step for running a script that converts all TRY_CATCH uses to look like this instead: ~~~ TRY { ... } CATCH (ex, RETURN_MASK_ALL) { ... } END_CATCH ~~~ The motivation for that change is being able to reimplent TRY/CATCH in terms of C++ try/catch. This commit makes it so that: - no condition other than ex.reason < 0 is checked in the if predicate - there's no "else" block to check whether no exception was caught - there's no code between the TRY_CATCH (TRY) block and the 'if (ex.reason < 0)' block (CATCH). - the exception object is no longer referred to outside the if/catch block. Note the local volatile exception objects that are currently defined inside functions that use TRY_CATCH will disappear. In cases it's more convenient to still refer to the exception outside the catch block, a new non-volatile local is added and copy to that object is made within the catch block. The following patches should make this all clearer. gdb/ChangeLog: 2015-03-07 Pedro Alves <palves@redhat.com> * amd64-tdep.c (amd64_frame_cache, amd64_sigtramp_frame_cache) (amd64_epilogue_frame_cache): Normal exception handling code. * break-catch-throw.c (check_status_exception_catchpoint) (re_set_exception_catchpoint): Ditto. * cli/cli-interp.c (safe_execute_command): * cli/cli-script.c (script_from_file): Ditto. * compile/compile-c-symbols.c (generate_c_for_for_one_variable): Ditto. * compile/compile-object-run.c (compile_object_run): Ditto. * cp-abi.c (baseclass_offset): Ditto. * cp-valprint.c (cp_print_value): Ditto. * exceptions.c (catch_exceptions_with_msg): * frame-unwind.c (frame_unwind_try_unwinder): Ditto. * frame.c (get_frame_address_in_block_if_available): Ditto. * i386-tdep.c (i386_frame_cache, i386_epilogue_frame_cache) (i386_sigtramp_frame_cache): Ditto. * infcmd.c (post_create_inferior): Ditto. * linespec.c (parse_linespec, find_linespec_symbols): * p-valprint.c (pascal_object_print_value): Ditto. * parse.c (parse_expression_for_completion): Ditto. * python/py-finishbreakpoint.c (bpfinishpy_init): Ditto. * remote.c (remote_get_noisy_reply): Ditto. * s390-linux-tdep.c (s390_frame_unwind_cache): Ditto. * solib-svr4.c (solib_svr4_r_map): Ditto. |

the "compile" command
This final patch adds the new "compile" command and subcommands, and all the machinery needed to make it work. A shared library supplied by gcc is used for all communications with gcc. Types and most aspects of symbols are provided directly by gdb to the compiler using this library. gdb provides some information about the user's code using plain text. Macros are emitted this way, and DWARF location expressions (and bounds for VLA) are compiled to C code. This hybrid approach was taken because, on the one hand, it is better to provide global declarations and such on demand; but on the other hand, for local variables, translating DWARF location expressions to C was much simpler than exporting a full compiler API to gdb -- the same result, only easier to implement, understand, and debug. In the ordinary mode, the user's expression is wrapped in a dummy function. After compilation, gdb inserts the resulting object code into the inferior, then calls this function. Access to local variables is provided by noting which registers are used by location expressions, and passing a structure of register values into the function. Writes to registers are supported by copying out these values after the function returns. This approach was taken so that we could eventually implement other more interesting features based on this same infrastructure; for example, we're planning to investigate inferior-side breakpoint conditions. gdb/ChangeLog 2014-12-12 Phil Muldoon <pmuldoon@redhat.com> Jan Kratochvil <jan.kratochvil@redhat.com> Tom Tromey <tromey@redhat.com> * NEWS: Update. * symtab.h (struct symbol_computed_ops) <generate_c_location>: New field. * p-lang.c (pascal_language_defn): Update. * opencl-lang.c (opencl_language_defn): Update. * objc-lang.c (objc_language_defn): Update. * m2-lang.c (m2_language_defn): Update. * language.h (struct language_defn) <la_get_compile_instance, la_compute_program>: New fields. * language.c (unknown_language_defn, auto_language_defn) (local_language_defn): Update. * jv-lang.c (java_language_defn): Update. * go-lang.c (go_language_defn): Update. * f-lang.c (f_language_defn): Update. * dwarf2loc.h (dwarf2_compile_property_to_c): Declare. * dwarf2loc.c (dwarf2_compile_property_to_c) (locexpr_generate_c_location, loclist_generate_c_location): New functions.
