When using GDB to debug an RX target using the GDB remote protocol,
using a Renesas supplied debug agent, I encountered the following
assertion error:
thread.c:85: internal-error: inferior_thread: Assertion `tp' failed.
A problem internal to GDB has been detected,
further debugging may prove unreliable.
Create a core file of GDB? (y or n) n
Command aborted.
This assertion error occurs due to the fact that the value associated
with inferior_ptid is not on the thread list.
The remote debug output (obtained with "set debug remote 1") is fairly
short, so I will include it up to the point where things go wrong -
which is somewhat before the assertion failure:

Above is the trace starting from the invocation of "target remote"
through the call of get_current_thread() in remote_start_remote().
Below, I've pasted this line of code along with additional lines of
context. The test following the call is especially important to
understanding both the problem and my patch.
/* We have thread information; select the thread the target
says should be current. If we're reconnecting to a
multi-threaded program, this will ideally be the thread
that last reported an event before GDB disconnected. */
inferior_ptid = get_current_thread (wait_status);
if (ptid_equal (inferior_ptid, null_ptid))
{
/* Odd... The target was able to list threads, but not
tell us which thread was current (no "thread"
register in T stop reply?). Just pick the first
thread in the thread list then. */
inferior_ptid = thread_list->ptid;
}
}
Prior to getting to the code pasted above, remote_start_remote()
made a call to target_update_thread_list(). This corresponds to the
following lines from the above trace:
Sending packet: $qfThreadInfo#bb...Packet received: m1
Sending packet: $qsThreadInfo#c8...Packet received: l
Sending packet: $qAttached:a410#bf...Packet received: 0
Packet qAttached (query-attached) is supported
Once target_update_thread_list has completed, the thread list
contains a single entry: {pid = 42000, lwp = 1, tid = 0}.
remote_start_remote() then makes a call to set_continue_thread(),
accounting for this line of the trace:
Sending packet: $Hc-1#09...Packet received: OK
Finally, the call to get_current_thread() is responsible for the last
line of the trace that I provided above:
Sending packet: $qC#b4...Packet received: QC not supported
get_current_thread() calls stop_reply_extract_thread() with the wait
status. This returns null_ptid.
get_current_thread() then calls remote_current_thread with a null
inferior_ptid. After the calls to putpkt() and getpkt(), rs->buf[0]
is 'Q', so read_ptid() is called and its result is returned.
The buffer passed to read_ptid() is " not supported". read_ptid ultimately
returns a ptid of {pid = 4200, lwp = 0, tid = 0}.
However, this thread is not on the thread list. As noted earlier, the
call to target_update_thread_list() had placed {pid = 42000, lwp = 1,
tid = 0} on the list. This is the only thread in the list.
When these calls ultimately return to remote_start_remote(),
inferior_ptid gets set to {pid = 4200, lwp = 0, tid = 0}, which
(again) is not on the thread list.
It appears to me that the string " not supported" is coming from the
debug agent. If so, it should be fixed, but I don't see a reason to
not consult the thread list in order to place a valid thread id in
inferior_ptid.
This (consultation of the thread list) is what is done when
inferior_ptid is null_ptid:
if (ptid_equal (inferior_ptid, null_ptid))
{
/* Odd... The target was able to list threads, but not
tell us which thread was current (no "thread"
register in T stop reply?). Just pick the first
thread in the thread list then. */
inferior_ptid = thread_list->ptid;
}
My patch causes a null inferior_ptid to be returned by read_ptid when
no thread id is found in the response from the debug agent. This
return value ends up being returned by remote_current_thread() and
then by get_current_thread. The assignment then places this null
value into inferior_ptid. That, in turn, allows the ptid_equal test
(noted above) to fetch a valid thread from the thread list. I no
longer see the assertion failure due a good value (which is on the
thread list) being placed in inferior_ptid.
This patch also adds two log warnings that may be output when "set
debug remote 1" is used. When running against the Renesas debug agent
mentioned earlier, this is the relevant portion of the log output:
Sending packet: $qC#b4...Packet received: QC not supported
warning: garbage in qC reply
warning: couldn't determine remote current thread; picking first in list.

The initial import commit failed to retain local changes made to
readline's configure.in (and the commit message erroneously stated that
there were no local changes that needed to be reapplied). Also the
import caused a couple of build errors and a scattering of testsuite
regressions throughout many arches. It's probably better to start over
with this import, hopefully more carefully next time.

Since the sync to version 7.0-alpho, readline now by default builds
(unused) shared libraries alongside static libraries, whereas before it
only built static libraries. A couple of GDB buildbots were not happy
with this change:
http://gdb-build.sergiodj.net/builders/AIX-POWER7-plain/builds/240http://gdb-build.sergiodj.net/builders/Fedora-i686/builds/1518
To get these buildbots building again, this patch alters readline's
configure.ac file to not build shared libraries by default, as was the
case with readline 6.2. A more permanent fix may be to alter the
top-level Makefile.def to pass --disable-shared to readline, or to
investigate why these building these shared libraries are giving the
buildbots trouble. (I think the proximate reason why the i686 buildbot
fails is because it passes CFLAGS=-m32 instead of CC="gcc -m32" to the
top-level configure script, and readline's linker commands don't inherit
CFLAGS. Not sure about the AIX failure.)

This patch syncs our upstream copy of readline from version 6.2 to the
latest version, 7.0 alpha (released July 10 2015).
I essentially copied what was done the last time readline was synced,
when Jan updated to readline 6.2 in 2011:
http://sourceware.org/ml/gdb-patches/2011-05/msg00003.html
Procedure:
1. I extracted the readline-7.0-alpha tarball on top of readline/.
2. I deleted all the new files under doc/ that were deliberately omitted
before.
3. I regenerated readline/configure and readline/examples/rlfe/configure
using autoconf 2.64. No other configure files need regenerating.
4. I updated the function gdb_printable_part in completer.c with a
trivial change made to the readline function it is based off of,
printable_part in readline/complete.c. There is more work to be done in
completer.c to sync it with readline/complete.c, but it is non-trivial
and should probably be done separately anyway.
Local patches that had to be reapplied:
None. readline 7.0 alpha contains all of our local readline
patches.
New files in readline/:
colors.{c,h}
examples/{hist_erasedups,hist_purgecmd,rl-callbacktest,rlbasic}.c
parse-colors.{c,h}
readline.pc.in
configure.ac
Deleted files in readline/:
configure.in
Regressions:
After the sync there is one testsuite regression, the test
"signal SIGINT" in gdb.gdb/selftest.exp which now FAILs. Previously,
the readline 6.2 SIGINT handler would temporarily reinstall the
underlying application's SIGINT handler and immediately re-raise SIGINT
so that the orginal handler gets invoked. But now (since readline 6.3)
its SIGINT handler does not re-raise SIGINT or directly invoke the
original handler; it now sets a flag marking that SIGINT was raised, and
waits until readline explicitly has control to call the application's
SIGINT handler. Anyway, because SIGINT is no longer re-raised from
within readline's SIGINT handler, doing "signal SIGINT" with a stopped
inferior gdb process will no longer resume and then immediately stop the
process (since there is no 2nd SIGINT to immediately catch). Instead,
the inferior gdb process will now just print "Quit" and continue to run.
So with this commit, this particular test case is adjusted to reflect
this change in behavior (we now have to send a 2nd SIGINT manually to
stop it).
Aside from this one testsuite regression, I personally noticed no
regression in user-visible behavior. Though I only tested on x86_64
and on i686 Debian Stretch.
Getting this kind of change in at the start of the GDB 7.11 development
cycle will allow us to get a lot of passive testing from developers and
from bleeding-edge users.

The gdb_skip_xml_test procedure explicitly says that it cannot be

I have patches that:
1 - make the CLI print stop info from a normal_stop observer, like MI
does.
2 - happen to change the order in which the Python and CLI/TUI
normal_stop observers are installed.
With those in place, py-events.exp regresses like shown below [1],
because the Python stop events are output before CLI prints stop info,
instead of after, and the test doesn't expect that.
With the same Python hooks, the order in which MI and Python events is
emited today is already undefined, because MI also uses the
normal_stop observer for output. I see no reason that we should in
general define the order observers, interpreters and scripting
languages get their turn at being notified of these events. So this
patch makes the test cope with Python->CLI output order too.
Tested on x86_64 Fedora 20.

However, we have fallback definitions for PTRACE_XXX symbols when the
system headers miss them (such as PTRACE_GETEVENTMSG above), and those
are plain integer constants. E.g., nat/linux-ptrace.h:
#define PTRACE_GETEVENTMSG 0x4201
One idea would be to fix this by defining those fallbacks like:
-#define PTRACE_GETEVENTMSG 0x4201
+#define PTRACE_GETEVENTMSG ((enum __ptrace_request) 0x4201)
However, while glibc's ptrace uses enum __ptrace_request for first
parameter:
extern long int ptrace (enum __ptrace_request __request, ...) __THROW;
other libc's, like e.g., Android's bionic do not -- in that case, the
first parameter is int:
long ptrace(int request, pid_t pid, void * addr, void * data);
So the fix I came up is to make configure/ptrace.m4 also detect the
type of the ptrace's first parameter and defin PTRACE_TYPE_ARG1, as
already does the for parameters 3-4, and then simply wrap ptrace with
a macro that casts the first argument to the detected type. (I'm
leaving adding a nicer wrapper for when we drop building in C).
While this adds the wrapper, GNU/Linux files won't use it until the
next patch, which makes all native GNU/Linux files include
gdb_ptrace.h.
gdb/ChangeLog:
2015-07-24 Pedro Alves <palves@redhat.com>
* ptrace.m4 (ptrace tests): Test in C++ mode. Try with 'enum
__ptrace_request as first parameter type instead of int.
(PTRACE_TYPE_ARG1): Define.
* nat/gdb_ptrace.h [!PTRACE_TYPE_ARG5] (ptrace): Define as wrapper
that casts first argument to PTRACE_TYPE_ARG1.
* config.in: Regenerate.
* configure: Regenerate.
gdb/gdbserver/ChangeLog:
2015-07-24 Pedro Alves <palves@redhat.com>
* config.in: Regenerate.
* configure: Regenerate.
Now that gdbserver's configure defines PTRACE_TYPE_ARGx etc., we'll be
able to make gdbserver use gdb_ptrace.h too. Move it to the native
target files directory.
gdb/ChangeLog:
2015-07-24 Pedro Alves <palves@redhat.com>
* gdb_ptrace.h: Move ...
* nat/gdb_ptrace.h: ... here.
* inf-ptrace.c: Adjust.
This factors the ptrace checks out of gdb's configure.ac to a new
ptrace.m4 file, and then makes gdbserver's configure.ac source it too.
gdb/ChangeLog:
2015-07-24 Pedro Alves <palves@redhat.com>
* acinclude.m4: Include ptrace.m4.
* configure.ac: Call GDB_AC_PTRACE and move ptrace checks ...
* ptrace.m4: ... to this new file.
gdb/gdbserver/ChangeLog:
2015-07-24 Pedro Alves <palves@redhat.com>
* acinclude.m4: Include ../ptrace.m4.
* configure.ac: Call GDB_AC_PTRACE.
* config.in, configure: Regenerate.
As the result of the previous patch, new_inferior is no longer used.
This patch is to remove it.
gdb/gdbserver:
2015-07-24 Yao Qi <yao.qi@linaro.org>
* linux-low.c (linux_create_inferior): Remove setting to
proc->priv->new_inferior.
(linux_attach): Likewise.
(linux_low_filter_event): Likewise.
* linux-low.h (struct process_info_private) <new_inferior>: Remove.
Nowadays, when --wrapper is used, GDBserver skips extra traps/stops
in the wrapper program, and stops at the first instruction of the
program to be debugged. However, GDBserver created target description
in the first stop of inferior, and the executable of the inferior
is the wrapper program rather than the program to be debugged. In
this way, the target description can be wrong if the architectures
of wrapper program and program to be debugged are different. This
is shown by some fails in gdb.server/wrapper.exp on buildbot.
We are testing i686-linux GDB (Fedora-i686) on an x86_64-linux box
(fedora-x86-64-4) in buildbot, such configuration causes fails in
gdb.server/wrapper.exp like this:
spawn /home/gdb-buildbot-2/fedora-x86-64-4/fedora-i686/build/gdb/testsuite/../../gdb/gdbserver/gdbserver --once --wrapper env TEST=1 -- :2346 /home/gdb-buildbot-2/fedora-x86-64-4/fedora-i686/build/gdb/testsuite/outputs/gdb.server/wrapper/wrapper

(gdb) FAIL: gdb.server/wrapper.exp: setting breakpoint at marker
See https://sourceware.org/ml/gdb-testers/2015-q3/msg01541.html
In this case, program to be debugged ("wrapper") is 32-bit but wrapper
program ("/usr/bin/env") is 64-bit, so GDBserver gets the 64-bit
target description instead of 32-bit.
The root cause of this problem is that GDBserver creates target
description too early, and the rationale of fix could be creating
target description once the GDBserver skips extra traps and inferior
stops at the first instruction of the program we want to debug. IOW,
when GDBserver skips extra traps, the inferior's tdesc is NULL, and
mywait and its callees shouldn't use inferior's tdesc, so in this
patch, we skip code that requires register access, see changes in
linux_resume_one_lwp_throw and need_step_over_p.
In linux_low_filter_event, if target description isn't initialised and
GDBserver attached the process, we create target description immediately,
because GDBserver don't have to skip extra traps for attach, IOW, it
makes no sense to use --attach and --wrapper together. Otherwise, the
process is launched by GDBserver, we keep the status pending, and return.
After GDBserver skipped extra traps in start_inferior, we call a
target_ops hook arch_setup to initialise target description there.
gdb/gdbserver:
2015-07-24 Yao Qi <yao.qi@linaro.org>
* linux-low.c (linux_arch_setup): New function.
(linux_low_filter_event): If proc->tdesc is NULL and
proc->attached is true, call the_low_target.arch_setup.
Otherwise, keep status pending, and return.
(linux_resume_one_lwp_throw): Don't call get_pc if
thread->while_stepping isn't NULL. Don't call
get_thread_regcache if proc->tdesc is NULL.
(need_step_over_p): Return 0 if proc->tdesc is NULL.
(linux_target_ops): Install arch_setup.
* server.c (start_inferior): Call the_target->arch_setup.
* target.h (struct target_ops) <arch_setup>: New field.
(target_arch_setup): New marco.
* lynx-low.c (lynx_target_ops): Update.
* nto-low.c (nto_target_ops): Update.
* spu-low.c (spu_target_ops): Update.
* win32-low.c (win32_target_ops): Update.
Nowadays, we set proc->priv->new_inferior to 1 inside linux_add_process,
and new_inferior is used as a flag to initialise target description later.
linux_add_process is used for the three cases, fork/vfork event
(handle_extended_wait), run the program (linux_create_inferior), and
attach to the process (linux_attach). In the first case, the child's
target description is copied from parent's, so we don't need to initialise
target description again later, which means we don't need to set
proc->priv->new_inferior to 1 in this case. For the rest of two cases,
we need this flag.
This patch move the code setting proc->priv->new_inferior to 1 inside
linux_add_process to linux_create_inferior and linux_attach. No
functionality is changed.
gdb/gdbserver:
2015-07-24 Yao Qi <yao.qi@linaro.org>
* linux-low.c (linux_add_process): Don't set
proc->priv->new_inferior.
(linux_create_inferior): Set proc->priv->new_inferior to 1.
(linux_attach): Likewise.
This patch is to refactor function start_inferior that signal_pid
is return in one place.
gdb/gdbserver:
2015-07-24 Yao Qi <yao.qi@linaro.org>
* server.c (start_inferior): Code refactor.
My patch series will affect the code starting inferior in GDBserver
(callees of start_inferior), so we need tests to cover how
start_inferior is used in different cases.
In server.c:process_serial_event, start_inferior is used when
GBDserver receives 'R' packet, and this patch is to add a test
for this path, and see how --wrapper option works when the process
is restarted.
gdb/testsuite:
2015-07-24 Yao Qi <yao.qi@linaro.org>
* gdb.server/ext-wrapper.exp: Test --wrapper option when
restarting process.
When I run gdb.server/ext-restart.exp, I get the following GDB internal

the test is to restart the program, to make sure GDBserver handles
packet 'R' correctly. From the GDBserver output, we can see,
Remote debugging from host 127.0.0.1^M

we first start process 21445(0x53c5), kill it and restart a new process
21446. However, in the gdb output above [1], we can see that the reply
of qC is still the old process id rather than the new one. Looks
general_thread isn't up to date after GDBserver receives R packet.
This patch is to update general_thread after call start_inferior.
gdb/gdbserver:

* gdb.server/ext-restart.exp: New file.
We didn't test --wrapper option in extended-remote before, this patch
is to add a test case for it. In order to pass option --wrapper to
gdbserver in extended-remote, I add arg in gdbserver_start_extended,
and its default value is "", so that other places use
gdbserver_start_extended don't have to be updated.
gdb/testsuite:
2015-07-24 Yao Qi <yao.qi@linaro.org>
* lib/gdbserver-support.exp (gdbserver_start_extended): Add
argument options.
* gdb.server/ext-wrapper.exp: New file.
Use -ggdb3 to generate .debug_macro sections, which are bigger and are
always compressed.
* ld-elf/compress.exp (build_tests): Replace -g with -ggdb3.
* ld-elf/zlibbegin.rS: Also expect "GC".
* ld-elf/zlibnormal.rS: Likewise.
* elf.c (_bfd_elf_assign_file_positions_for_non_load): Use .rela
