Similar to qsort(), the glibc version of memcpy() also declares its
arguments with __attribute__(__nonnull__(...)). If NULL is passed
anyway, upstream GCC's new pass '-fisolate-erroneous-paths' typically
causes a trap in such cases. I've encountered this with GDB in
chain_candidate() when trying to execute the break.exp test case.

This patch fixes PR c++/16117.
gdb has an extension so that users can use expressions like FILE::NAME
to choose a variable of the given name from the given file. The bug
is that this extension takes precedence over ordinary C++ expressions
of the same form. You might think this is merely hypothetical, but
now that C++ headers commonly do not use an extension, it is more
common.
This patch fixes the bug by making two related changes. First, it
changes gdb to prefer the ordinary C++ meaning of a symbol over the
extended meaning. Second, it arranges for single-quoting of the
symbol to indicate a preference for the extension.
Built and regtested on x86-64 Fedora 18.
New test case included.

Consider the following code, compiled at -O2 on ppc-linux:
procedure Increment (Val : in out Float; Msg : String);
The implementation does not really matter in this case). In our example,
this function is being called from a function with Param_1 set to 99.0.
Trying to break inside that function, and running until reaching that
breakpoint yields:
(gdb) b increment
Breakpoint 1 at 0x100014b4: file callee.adb, line 6.
(gdb) run
Starting program: /[...]/foo
Breakpoint 1, callee.increment (val=99.0, val@entry=0.0, msg=...)
at callee.adb:6
6 if Val > 200.0 then
The @entry value for parameter "val" is incorrect, it should be 99.0.
The associated call-site parameter DIE looks like this:
.uleb128 0xc # (DIE (0x115) DW_TAG_GNU_call_site_parameter)
.byte 0x2 # DW_AT_location
.byte 0x90 # DW_OP_regx
.uleb128 0x21
.byte 0x3 # DW_AT_GNU_call_site_value
.byte 0xf5 # DW_OP_GNU_regval_type
.uleb128 0x3f
.uleb128 0x25
The DW_AT_GNU_call_site_value uses a DW_OP_GNU_regval_type
operation, referencing register 0x3f=63, which is $f31,
an 8-byte floating register. In that register, the value is
stored using the usual 8-byte float format:
(gdb) info float
f31 99.0 (raw 0x4058c00000000000)
The current code evaluating DW_OP_GNU_regval_type operations
currently is (dwarf2expr.c:execute_stack_op):
result = (ctx->funcs->read_reg) (ctx->baton, reg);
result_val = value_from_ulongest (address_type, result);
result_val = value_from_contents (type,
value_contents_all (result_val));
What the ctx->funcs->read_reg function does is read the contents
of the register as if it contained an address. The rest of the code
continues that assumption, thinking it's OK to then use that to
create an address/ulongest struct value, which we then re-type
to the type specified by DW_OP_GNU_regval_type.
We're getting 0.0 above because the read_reg implementations
end up treating the contents of the FP register as an integral,
reading only 4 out of the 8 bytes. Being a big-endian target,
we read the high-order ones, which gives us zero.
This patch fixes the problem by introducing a new callback to
read the contents of a register as a given type, and then adjust
the handling of DW_OP_GNU_regval_type to use that new callback.

ELFv2 needs different plt call stubs to ELFv1, register usage differs
too. When I added these to ld I changed register usage in the ELFv1
stubs as well, simplifying the linker code and (perhaps) future
maintenance. All well and good, but this means gdb needs to cope with
more stub variants. This patch also handles skipping over addis/addi

Before all this stop_soon handling, we have code that can end in
keep_going. Particularly, the thread_hop_needed code looked
suspicious considering breakpoint always-inserted mode, though on
closer inspection, it'd take connecting to multiple remote targets
that shared the same address space to trigger that.
Still, I think it's clearer if all this remote connection setup /
attach code is placed early, before any keep_going path could be
reached.

After the previous patches, we only ever reach the code after the
initial 'switch (ecs->ws.kind)' switch for TARGET_WAITKIND_STOPPED.
We can now factor out all that to its own function.
Unfortunately, stepped_after_stopped_by_watchpoint needed to move to
the ecs. I think that indicates a state machine bug -- no event other
than TARGET_WAITKIND_STOPPED indicates a single-step actually
finished. TARGET_WAITKIND_SYSCALL_XXX, TARGET_WAITKIND_FORK, etc. are
all events that are triggered from the kernel, _within_ a syscall,
IOW, from userspace's perspective, halfway through an instruction
being executed. This might actually matter for the syscall events, as
syscalls can change memory (and thus trigger watchpoints).

After the previous patch, there's actually no breakpoint type that

disappears.

return a boolean.

(bpstat_explains_signal): Likewise.
* infrun.c (handle_inferior_event) <random signal checks>:
bpstat_explains_signal now returns a boolean - adjust. No longer
consider hiding signals.
Looking at the current random signal checks:
if (ecs->event_thread->suspend.stop_signal == GDB_SIGNAL_TRAP)
random_signal
= !((bpstat_explains_signal (ecs->event_thread->control.stop_bpstat,
GDB_SIGNAL_TRAP)
!= BPSTAT_SIGNAL_NO)
|| stopped_by_watchpoint
|| ecs->event_thread->control.trap_expected
|| (ecs->event_thread->control.step_range_end
&& (ecs->event_thread->control.step_resume_breakpoint
== NULL)));
else
{
enum bpstat_signal_value sval;
sval = bpstat_explains_signal (ecs->event_thread->control.stop_bpstat,
ecs->event_thread->suspend.stop_signal);
random_signal = (sval == BPSTAT_SIGNAL_NO);
if (sval == BPSTAT_SIGNAL_HIDE)
ecs->event_thread->suspend.stop_signal = GDB_SIGNAL_0;
}
We can observe:
- the stepping checks bit:
...
|| ecs->event_thread->control.trap_expected
|| (ecs->event_thread->control.step_range_end
&& (ecs->event_thread->control.step_resume_breakpoint
== NULL)));
...
is just like currently_stepping:
static int
currently_stepping (struct thread_info *tp)
{
return ((tp->control.step_range_end
&& tp->control.step_resume_breakpoint == NULL)
|| tp->control.trap_expected
|| bpstat_should_step ());
}
except it misses the bpstat_should_step check (***).
It's not really necessary to check bpstat_should_step in the
random signal tests, because software watchpoints always end up in
the bpstat list anyway, which means bpstat_explains_signal with
GDB_SIGNAL_TRAP always returns at least BPSSTAT_SIGNAL_HIDE, but I
think the code is clearer if we reuse currently_stepping.
*** - bpstat_should_step checks to see if there's any software
watchpoint in the breakpoint list, because we need to force the
target to single-step all the way, to evaluate the watchpoint's
value at each step.
- we never hide GDB_SIGNAL_TRAP, even if the bpstat returns
BPSTAT_SIGNAL_HIDE, which is actually the default for all
breakpoints. If we make the default be BPSTAT_SIGNAL_PASS, then
we can merge the two bpstat_explains_signal paths.

* infrun.c (handle_inferior_event): Rework random signal checks.
This goes a step forward in making only TARGET_WAITKIND_STOPPED talk
about signals.
There's no reason for the "catchpoint" TARGET_WAITKIND_XXXs to consult
bpstat about signals -- unlike breakpoints, all these events are
continuable, so we don't need to do a remove-break/step/reinsert-break
-like dance. That means we don't actually need to run them through
process_event_stop_test (for the bpstat_what checks), and can just use
bpstat_causes_stop instead. Note we were already using it in the
TARGET_WAITKIND_(V)FORKED cases.
Then, these "catchpoint" waitkinds don't need to set
ecs->random_signal for anything, because they check it immediately
afterwards (and the value they set is never used again).

Of all the TARGET_WAITKIND_XXXs event kinds other than
TARGET_WAITKIND_STOPPED, TARGET_WAITKIND_LOADED is the only kind that
doesn't end in a return, instead falling through to all the
signal/breakpoint/stepping handling code. But it only falls through
in the STOP_QUIETLY_NO_SIGSTOP and STOP_QUIETLY_REMOTE cases, which
means the
/* This is originated from start_remote(), start_inferior() and
shared libraries hook functions. */
if (stop_soon == STOP_QUIETLY || stop_soon == STOP_QUIETLY_REMOTE)
{
if (debug_infrun)
fprintf_unfiltered (gdb_stdlog, "infrun: quietly stopped\n");
stop_stepping (ecs);
return;
}
bit is eventually reached. All tests before that is reached will
always fail. It's simpler to inline the stop_soon checks close to the
TARGET_WAITKIND_LOADED code, which allows removing the fall through.
Tested on x86_64 Fedora 17, but that doesn't exercise this
TARGET_WAITKIND_LOADED.
Also ran gdb.base/solib-disc.exp on Cygwin/gdbserver, which exercises
reconnection while the inferior is stopped at an solib event, but then
again, gdbserver always replies a regular trap on initial connection,
instead of the last event the program had seen:
Sending packet: $?#3f...Packet received: T0505:4ca72800;04:f8a62800;08:62fcc877;thread:d28;
Sending packet: $Hc-1#09...Packet received: E01
Sending packet: $qAttached#8f...Packet received: 0
Packet qAttached (query-attached) is supported
infrun: clear_proceed_status_thread (Thread 3368)
Sending packet: $qOffsets#4b...Packet received:
infrun: wait_for_inferior ()
infrun: target_wait (-1, status) =
infrun: 42000 [Thread 3368],
infrun: status->kind = stopped, signal = GDB_SIGNAL_TRAP
infrun: infwait_normal_state
infrun: TARGET_WAITKIND_STOPPED
infrun: stop_pc = 0x77c8fc62
infrun: quietly stopped
infrun: stop_stepping
So the only way to exercise this would be to hack gdbserver. I didn't
go that far though. I'm reasonably confident this is correct.

Frontend sometimes need to evaluate expressions that are
language-specific. For instance, Eclipse uses the following
expression to determine the size of an address on the target:
-data-evaluate-expression "sizeof (void*)"
Unfortunately, if the main of the program being debugged is not C,
this may not work. For instance, if the main is in Ada, you get...
-data-evaluate-expression "sizeof (void*)"
^error,msg="No definition of \"sizeof\" in current context."
... and apparently decides to stop the debugging session as a result.
The recommendation sent was to specifically set the language to C
before trying to evaluate the expression. Something such as:
1. save current language
2. set language c
3. -data-evaluate-expression "sizeof (void*)"
4. Restore language
This has the same disadvantages as the ones outlined in the "Context
Management" section of the GDB/MI documentation regarding setting
the current thread or the current frame, thus recommending the use of
general command-line switches such as --frame, or --thread instead.
This patch follows the same steps for the language, adding a similar
new command option: --language LANG. Example of use:
-data-evaluate-expression --language c "sizeof (void*)"
^done,value="4"

Rather than having -list-features report support for the GDB/MI

and the GDB/MI command providing the list of Ada exceptions with

This patch aims at fixing the following problem, where the user:
. debugs its program
. makes a modification and rebuilds it *without exiting the debugger*
. returns to its debugging session and restarts the inferior
In that situation, the debugger notices that the underlying executable
has changed and that re-reading its symbols is needed. Shortly after
displaying a message informing the user of the situation, GDB crashes:
(gdb) run
[...]
`/[...]/dest' has changed; re-reading symbols.
zsh: 13434922 segmentation fault (core dumped)
The crash occurs while trying to allocate some memory on the bfd_bfd
obstack. But, at some point in time, the whole obstack data gets
corrupted, nullified. So the memory allocation fails trying to call
a function at a NULL address. (side note: when debugging GDB in GDB,
top-gdb reports a SIGILL, while the shell makes it look like it was
a SIGSEGV - the discrepancy is not critical to the investigation
and therefore was not explored)
The corruption occurred because the region where the per_bfd data
got free'ed nearly after it got allocated! This is what happens,
in chronological order (see reread_symbols):
1. GDB notices that the executable has changed, decides to
re-read its symbols.
2. Opens a new bfd, unrefs the old one
3. Calls set_objfile_per_bfd (objfile);
4. Re-initializes the objfile's obstack:
obstack_init (&objfile->objfile_obstack);
I think that the normal behavior for set_objfile_per_bfd would
be to search for already-allocated shared per_bfd data, and
allocate new one if not found. The critical difference between
a platform such as x86_64-linuxe where it works, and ppc-aix,
where it doesn't lies in the fact that bfd-data sharing is not
activated on ppc-aix, and as a result, the per-bfd data gets
allocated on the objfile's obstack instead of in the bfd objalloc:
/* If the object requires gdb to do relocations, we simply fall
back to not sharing data across users. These cases are rare
enough that this seems reasonable. */
if (abfd != NULL && !gdb_bfd_requires_relocations (abfd))
{
storage = bfd_zalloc (abfd, sizeof (struct objfile_per_bfd_storage));
set_bfd_data (abfd, objfiles_bfd_data, storage);
}
else
storage = OBSTACK_ZALLOC (&objfile->objfile_obstack,
struct objfile_per_bfd_storage);
Allocating that per_bfd storage is of course nearly useless since
we end up free-ing right after in step (4) above. Eventually,
the memory region ends up being re-used, hence the corruption
leading to the crash.
This fix was simply to move the call to set_objfile_per_bfd after
the objfile's obstack re-initialization.
gdb/ChangeLog:
* symfile.c (reread_symbols): Move call to set_objfile_per_bfd
after re-initialization of OBJFILE's obstack.
Upstream GCC's new pass '-fisolate-erroneous-paths' may introduce
traps at places where GCC has determined undefined behavior, e.g. when
passing a NULL pointer to a function that defines this argument as
__attribute__(__nonnull__(...)). In particular this applies to
uniquify_strings(), because it invokes qsort() with NULL when the
'strings' vector is empty. I hit this problem on s390x when trying to

This patch adds a new command "info exceptions" whose purpose is to
provide the list of exceptions currently defined in the inferior.
The usage is:
(gdb) info exceptions [REGEXP]
Without argument, the command lists all exceptions. Otherwise,
only those whose name match REGEXP are listed.
For instance:
(gdb) info exceptions
All defined Ada exceptions:
constraint_error: 0x613dc0
program_error: 0x613d40
storage_error: 0x613d00
tasking_error: 0x613cc0
global_exceptions.a_global_exception: 0x613a80
global_exceptions.a_private_exception: 0x613ac0
The name of the command, as well as its output is part of a legacy
I inherited long ago. It's output being parsed by frontends such as
GPS, I cannot easily change it. Same for the command name.
The implementation is mostly self-contained, and is written in a way
that should make it easy to implement the GDB/MI equivalent. The
careful reviewer will notice that the code added in ada-lang.h could
normally be made private inside ada-lang.c. But these will be used
by the GDB/MI implementation. Rather than making those private now,
only to move them later, I've made them public right away.

When using the GDB/MI commands to insert a catchpoint on a specific
Ada exception, any re-evaluation of that catchpoint (for instance
a re-evaluation performed after a shared library got mapped by the
inferior) fails. For instance, with any Ada program:
(gdb)
-catch-exception -e program_error
^done,bkptno="1",bkpt={[...]}
(gdb)
-exec-run
=thread-group-started,id="i1",pid="28315"
=thread-created,id="1",group-id="i1"
^running
*running,thread-id="all"
(gdb)

&"warning: failed to reevaluate internal exception condition for catchpoint 1: No definition of \"exec\" in current context.\n"
&"warning: failed to reevaluate internal exception condition for catchpoint 1: No definition of \"exec\" in current context.\n"
[...]
The same is true if using an Ada exception catchpoint.
The problem comes from the fact that that we deallocate the strings
given as arguments to create_ada_exception_catchpoint, while the latter
just makes shallow copies of those strings, thus creating dandling
pointers.
This patch fixes the issue by passing freshly allocated strings to
create_ada_exception_catchpoint, while at the same time updating
create_ada_exception_catchpoint's documentation to make it clear
that deallocating the strings is no longer the responsibility of
the caller.

Tested on x86_64-linux. The "-break-list" test FAILs without

An earlier patch removed the check for "syscall" since the results
were not used in the C code. However, the result was used, via the
cache variable, elsewhere in configure.
This patch fixes the problem by checking for "syscall" at the point at
which HAVE_TKILL_SYSCALL is defined.

My grepping around showed that HAVE_MULTIPLE_PROC_FDS is only ever
mentioned in a comment in configure.ac. Since the macro is long dead,
let's remove the last mention.
2013-11-08 Tom Tromey <tromey@redhat.com>
* configure: Rebuild.
* configure.ac: Remove mentions of HAVE_MULTIPLE_PROC_FDS.
Now that the configury needed for the "common" and "target"
directories is in common.m4, some code in gdb's configure.ac is
redundant.
I ran this script after making an "ID" file using mkid:
sed -n 's/^.*\(HAVE_[A-Z0-9_]*\).*$/\1/p' config.in |
while read x; do
echo ===== $x
gid $x | egrep -v '^(testsuite|gnulib|common|target|gdbserver)/'
done
This finds all the spots using HAVE_ defines, and, more importantly,
makes it clear which defines aren't used in the main parts of gdb.
From this I came up with this patch to remove all the unused bits.
There are a few that are subtly used -- for example the configure
script sometimes checks internal configure cache variables, meaning
some checks cannot be removed.

The removal of solib-sunos.c also removed the last user of various

* configure, config.in: Rebuild.
* configure.ac: Remove all link.h-related checks.
It has bothered me for a while that files in common/ use macros
defined via autoconf checks, but rely on each configure.ac doing the
proper checks independently.
This patch introduces common/common.m4 which consolidates the checks
assumed by code in common.
The rule I propose is that if something is needed or used by common,
it should be checked for by common.m4. However, if the check is also
needed by gdb or gdbserver, then it should be duplicated there.
Built and regtested on x86-64 Fedora 18 (though this is hardly the
most strenuous case) and using the Fedora 18 mingw cross compilers. I
also examined the config.in diffs to ensure that symbols did not go
missing.

This patch constifies the target_ops method to_detach.
This is a small cleanup, but also, I think, a bug-prevention fix,
since gdb already acts as if the "args" argument here was const.
In particular, top.c:quit_force calls kill_or_detach via
iterate_over_inferiors. kill_or_detach calls target_detach, passing
the same argument each time. So, if one of these methods was not
const-correct, then kill_or_detach would change its behavior in a
strange way.
I could not build every target I modified in this patch. I've
inspected them all by hand, though. Many targets do not use the
"args" parameter; a couple pass it to atoi; and a few pass it on to
the to_detach method of the target beneath. The only code that
required a real change was in linux-nat.c, and that only needed the
introduction of a temporary variable for const-correctness.

This patch does some cleanups, removing some language-related stuff.
Note that mi_cmd_var_info_expression uses varobj_language_string,
which is redundant, because we can get language name from
lang->la_natural_name.
varobj_language_string doesn't have "Ada", which looks like a bug to
me. With this patch applied, this problem doesn't exist, because the
language name is got from the same place (field la_natural_name).

When checking for the presence of the TDB regset, the current code
interprets ENODATA from PTRACE_GETREGSET as an indication that the TDB
regset *could* occur on this system, but the inferior stopped outside
a transaction. However, the Linux kernel actually reports ENODATA
even on systems without the transactional execution facility. Thus
the logic is now changed to check the TE field in the HWCAP as well.
This version also checks the existence of the TDB regset -- just to be
on the safe side when running on TE-enabled hardware with a kernel
that does not offer the TDB regset for some reason.

As discussed on the GDB ML[1], libc probes for longjmp were not being
loaded if a custom <arch>_get_longjmp_target function was not
implemented.
This is trivially fixed by moving the 'if (!gdbarch_get_longjmp_target_p
(gdbarch))' down, just bellow libc probe code and above the per-objfile
cache lookup.
While the condition could also be removed altogether with no
side-effects, it is in fact an optimization to avoid searching for
symbols if the arch doesn't provide support for get_longjmp_target().
This has been tested on PPC and PPC64.

IMO, it doesn't make sense to map random syscall, fork, etc. events to
GDB_SIGNAL_TRAP, and possible have the debuggee see that trap. This
just seems conceptually wrong to me - these aren't real signals a
debuggee would ever see. In fact, when stopped for those events, on
Linux, the debuggee isn't in a signal-stop -- there's no way to
resume-and-deliver-signal at that point, for example. E.g., when
stopped at a fork event:
(gdb) catch fork
Catchpoint 2 (fork)
(gdb) c
Continuing.
Catchpoint 2 (forked process 4570), 0x000000323d4ba7c4 in __libc_fork () at ../nptl/sysdeps/unix/sysv/linux/fork.c:131

Note the signal went nowhere. It was swallowed.
Resuming with a SIGTRAP from a syscall event does queue the signal,
but doesn't deliver it immediately, like "signal SIGTRAP" from a real
signal would. It's still an artificial SIGTRAP:
(gdb) catch syscall
Catchpoint 2 (any syscall)

In all the above, I used 'signal SIGTRAP' to emulate 'handle SIGTRAP
pass'. As described in "keep_going", 'handle SIGTRAP pass' does have
its place:
/* Do not deliver GDB_SIGNAL_TRAP (except when the user
explicitly specifies that such a signal should be delivered
to the target program). Typically, that would occur when a
user is debugging a target monitor on a simulator: the target
monitor sets a breakpoint; the simulator encounters this
breakpoint and halts the simulation handing control to GDB;
GDB, noting that the stop address doesn't map to any known
breakpoint, returns control back to the simulator; the
simulator then delivers the hardware equivalent of a
GDB_SIGNAL_TRAP to the program being debugged. */
... and I've made use of that myself when implementing/debugging
stubs/monitors. But in these cases, treating these events as SIGTRAP
possibly injects signals in the debuggee they'd never see otherwise,
because you need to use ptrace to enable these special events, which
aren't real signals.
There's more. Take this bit of handle_inferior_event, where we
determine whether a real signal (TARGET_WAITKIND_STOPPED) was random
or not:
if (ecs->event_thread->suspend.stop_signal == GDB_SIGNAL_TRAP)
ecs->random_signal
= !((bpstat_explains_signal (ecs->event_thread->control.stop_bpstat,
GDB_SIGNAL_TRAP)
!= BPSTAT_SIGNAL_NO)
|| stopped_by_watchpoint
|| ecs->event_thread->control.trap_expected
|| (ecs->event_thread->control.step_range_end
&& (ecs->event_thread->control.step_resume_breakpoint
== NULL)));
else
{
enum bpstat_signal_value sval;
sval = bpstat_explains_signal (ecs->event_thread->control.stop_bpstat,
ecs->event_thread->suspend.stop_signal);
ecs->random_signal = (sval == BPSTAT_SIGNAL_NO);
if (sval == BPSTAT_SIGNAL_HIDE)
ecs->event_thread->suspend.stop_signal = GDB_SIGNAL_TRAP;
}
Note that the
if (sval == BPSTAT_SIGNAL_HIDE)
ecs->event_thread->suspend.stop_signal = GDB_SIGNAL_TRAP;
bit is only reacheable for signals != GDB_SIGNAL_TRAP. AFAICS, sval
can only be BPSTAT_SIGNAL_HIDE if nothing in the bpstat returns
BPSTAT_SIGNAL_PASS. So that excludes a "catch signal" for the signal
in question in the bpstat. All other catchpoints that aren't based on
breakpoints behind the scenes call process_event_stop_test directly
(don't pass through here) (well, almost all: TARGET_WAITKIND_LOADED
does have a fall through, but only for STOP_QUIETLY or
STOP_QUIETLY_NO_SIGSTOP, which still return before this code is
reached). Catchpoints that are implemented as breakpoints behind the
scenes can only appear in the bpstat if the signal was GDB_SIGNAL_TRAP
(bkpt_breakpoint_hit returns false otherwise). So that leaves a
target reporting a hardware watchpoint hit with a signal other than
GDB_SIGNAL_TRAP. And even then it looks quite wrong to me to
magically convert the signal into a GDB_SIGNAL_TRAP here too -- if the
user has set SIGTRAP to "handle pass", the program will see a trap
that gdb invented, not one the program would ever see without gdb in
the picture.

such that "-linux-" occurs in the file name, like with other GNU/Linux

I tried to build gdb on the AIX machine in the GCC compile farm

Now that all ecs->random_signal handing is always done before the

(handle_inferior_event): 'process_event_stop_test' is now a

We only ever call "goto process_event_stop_test;" right after checking
that ecs->random_signal is clear. The code at the
process_event_stop_test label looks like:
/* For the program's own signals, act according to
the signal handling tables. */
if (ecs->random_signal)
{
... random signal handling ...
return;
}
else
{
... the stop tests that actually matter for the goto callers.
}

process_event_stop_test into a function a bit clearer.

I recently added a new ecs->random_signal test after the "switch back to

making process_event_stop_test a proper function, I realized it'd be
better to keep ecs->random_signal related code together. To do that,
I needed to factor out the "switch back to stepped thread" code to a new
function, and call it in both the "random signal" and "not random
signal" paths.

'ecs' is always memset before being passed to handle_inferior_event.
The stop func is only filled in later in the flow. And since "Remove

Here is the patch to rename 'lang' to 'lang_ops'. Committed as obvious.
gdb:
2013-10-27 Yao Qi <yao@codesourcery.com>
* varobj.c (struct varobj_root) <lang>: Rename to 'lang_ops'.
(varobj_create, varobj_get_path_expr): Update.
(varobj_value_has_mutated, varobj_update): Likewise.
(create_child_with_value, new_root_variable): Likewise.
(number_of_children, name_of_variable): Likewise.
(value_of_child, my_value_of_variable): Likewise.
(varobj_value_is_changeable_p): Likewise.
This is a follow-up series to move language stuff out of varobj.c.
This patch adds a new field la_varobj_ops in struct language_defn so
that each language has varobj-related options. Not every language
supports varobj, and the operations are identical to operations of c
languages.
'struct language_defn' is the ideal place to save all language-related
operations. After this patch, some cleanups can be done in patch 2/2,
which removes language-related stuff completely from varobj.c.
Regression tested on x86_64-linux.

With:
struct static_struct { static int aaa; };
struct static_struct sss;
int main () { return 0; }
We get:
(gdb) p sss
$1 = {static aaa = <optimized out>}
(gdb) p sss.aaa
field aaa is nonexistent or has been optimized out
Note that the "field aaa ..." message is an error being thrown.
GDB is graceful everywhere else when printing optimized out values.
IOW it usually prints an <optimized out> value and puts that in the
value history. I see no reason for here to be different, more so that
when the print the whole "containing" object (well, it's a static
field, so it's not really a container), we already print <optimized
out>.
After the patch:
(gdb) p sss
$1 = {static aaa = <optimized out>}
(gdb) p sss.aaa
$2 = <optimized out>
The value_entirely_optimized_out checks are there to preserve
behavior. Without those, if the static field is a struct/union, GDB
would go and print its fields one by one (and print <optimized out>
for each).

When I do 'si', I find many 'qXfer:traceframe-info:read' packets are sent,
which is not necessary. It slows down the single step.

This problem was introduced by this patch
(https://sourceware.org/ml/gdb-patches/2013-04/msg00000.html), in
which get_traceframe_number is not checked before calling
traceframe_available_memory. This patch moves the check to
remote_traceframe_info, say, if GDB doesn't have traceframe selected, GDB
doesn't need to send qXfer:traceframe-info:read packets.
With this patch applied, there is no qXfer:traceframe-info:read sent
out and single step is speed up a little bit.

Occasionaly we hear about people having problems with GDB not being
able to start programs (with "run"/"start"). GDB spawns a shell to
start the program, and most often, it'll be the case that the problem
is actually with the user's shell setup.
GDB has code to disable the use of the shell to start programs.
That's the STARTUP_WITH_SHELL macro that native targets could set to 0
in their nm.h file (though no target actually uses it nowadays).
This patch makes that setting a run-time knob instead. This will be
useful to quickly diagnose such shell issues, and might also come in
handy at other times (such as when debugging the shell itself, if you
don't have a different shell handy).

The other day while debugging something related to random signals, I
got confused with "set debug infrun 1" output, for it said:
infrun: TARGET_WAITKIND_STOPPED
infrun: stop_pc = 0x323d4e8b94
infrun: random signal 20
On GNU/Linux, 20 is SIGTSTP. For some reason, it took me a few
minutes to realize that 20 is actually a GDB signal number, not a
target signal number (duh!). In any case, I propose making GDB's
output clearer here:
One way would be to use gdb_signal_to_name, like already used
elsewhere:
infrun: TARGET_WAITKIND_STOPPED
infrun: stop_pc = 0x323d4e8b94
infrun: random signal SIGCHLD (20)
but I think that might confuse someone too ("20? Why does GDB believe
SIGCHLD is 20?"). So I thought of printing the enum string instead:
infrun: TARGET_WAITKIND_STOPPED
infrun: stop_pc = 0x323d4e8b94
infrun: random signal GDB_SIGNAL_CHLD (20)
Looking at a more complete infrun debug log, we had actually printed
the (POSIX) signal name name a bit before:
infrun: target_wait (-1, status) =
infrun: 9300 [Thread 0x7ffff7fcb740 (LWP 9300)],
infrun: status->kind = stopped, signal = SIGCHLD
...
infrun: TARGET_WAITKIND_STOPPED
infrun: stop_pc = 0x323d4e8b94
infrun: random signal 20
So I'm now thinking that it'd be even better to make infrun output
consistently use the enum symbol string, like so:
infrun: clear_proceed_status_thread (Thread 0x7ffff7fca700 (LWP 25663))
infrun: clear_proceed_status_thread (Thread 0x7ffff7fcb740 (LWP 25659))

infrun: infwait_normal_state

GDB's signal numbers are public and hardcoded (see
include/gdb/signals.h), so there's really no need to clutter the
output with numeric values in some places while others not. Replacing
the magic "144" with GDB_SIGNAL_DEFAULT in "proceed"'s debug output
(see above) I think is quite nice.
I posit that all this makes it clearer to newcomers that GDB has its
own signal numbering (and that there must be some mapping going on).

In the first hunk, the format string was off-by-one for cmd, and cmd
itself was larger than the maximum size required. cmd was reduced in
size and the format string adjusted.
In the second hunk, the format string was off-by-one for local_address,
remote_address and extra, although the buffers for the two addresses
were large enough for this not to matter. The specifiers for the two
addresses was corrected, and a number of unused variables including
extra were suppressed from parsing.
In the third hunk, the format string was off-by-one for name,
dependencies and status. This code was rewritten using strtok since
dependencies can be arbitrarily long.

'*ecs' is always memset by handle_inferior_event's callers, so all
these clears are unnecessary. There's one place that sets the flag to
true, but, afterwards, before ecs->random_signal is ever read, we
reach the part of handle_inferior_even that clears ecs->random_signal,
among other things:
clear_stop_func (ecs);
ecs->event_thread->stepping_over_breakpoint = 0;
bpstat_clear (&ecs->event_thread->control.stop_bpstat);
ecs->event_thread->control.stop_step = 0;
stop_print_frame = 1;
ecs->random_signal = 0;
stopped_by_random_signal = 0;
So all these ecs->random_signal accesses are dead code.

So the inferior got a SIGCHLD (because the fork child exited while
we're doing 'si'), and since that signal is set to "nostop noprint
pass" (by default), it's considered a random signal, so it should not
cause a stop. But, it resulted in an immediate a stop_stepping call
anyway. So the single-step never really finished.
This is a regression caused by:

The bug here is that gdb's printf command does not flush the output
stream. This makes a printf that is not newline-terminated interleave
incorrectly with other forms of output, such as that generated via a
call to an external program using "shell".
I note that the "output" command already does this flushing.

This patch reworks a bit how the different steps required to insert
an Ada exception catchpoints are organized. They used to be:
1. Call a "decode" function which does:
1.a. Parse the command and its arguments
1.b. Create a SAL & OPS from some of those arguments
2. Call create_ada_exception_catchpoint using SAL as well
as some of the arguments extracted above.
The bulk of the change consists in integrating step (1.b) into
step (2) in order to turn create_ada_exception_catchpoint into
a function whose arguments are all user-level concepts. This
paves the way from a straightforward implementation of the equivalent
commands in the GDB/MI interpreter.

* ada-lang.c (ada_decode_exception_location): Delete.
(create_ada_exception_catchpoint): Remove arguments "sal",

Consider the following example:
% gdb -q -batch -ex 'source nonexistant-file'
[nothing]
One would have at least expected the debugger to warn about
not finding the file, similar to the error shown when using
a more interactive mode. Eg:
(gdb) source nonexistant-file
nonexistant-file: No such file or directory.
Not raising an error appears to be intentional, presumably in order
to prevent this situation from stoping the execution of a GDB script.
But the lack of at least a warning makes it harder for a user to
diagnose any issue, if the file was expected to be there and readable.
This patch adds a warning in that case:
% gdb -q -batch -ex 'source nonexistant-file'
warning: nonexistant-file: No such file or directory.

target_read_memory & friends build on top of target_read (thus on top
of the target_xfer machinery), but turn all errors to EIO, an errno
value. I think we'd better convert all these to return a
target_xfer_error too, like target_xfer_partial in a previous patch.
The patch starts by doing that.
(The patch does not add a enum target_xfer_error value for '0'/no
error, and likewise does not change the return type of several of
these functions to enum target_xfer_error, because different functions
return '0' with different semantics.)
I audited the tree for memory_error calls, EIO checks, places where
GDB hardcodes 'errno = EIO', and also for strerror calls. What I
found is that nowadays there's really no need to handle random errno
values, other than the EIOs gdb itself hardcodes. No doubt errno
values would appear in common code back in the day when
target_xfer_memory was the main interface to access memory, but
nowadays, any errno value that deprecated interface could return is
just absorved by default_xfer_partial:
else if (xfered == 0 && errno == 0)
/* "deprecated_xfer_memory" uses 0, cross checked against
ERRNO as one indication of an error. */
return 0;
else
return -1;
There are two places in the code that check for EIO and print "out of
bounds", and defer to strerror for other errors. That's
c-lang.c:c_get_string, and valprint.c.:val_print_string. AFAICT, the
strerror branch can never be reached nowadays, as the only error
possible to get at those points is EIO, given that it's GDB itself
that set that errno value (in target_read_memory, etc.).
breakpoint.c:insert_bp_location always prints the error val as if an
errno, returned by target_insert_breakpoint, with strerr. Now the
error here is either always EIO for mem-break.c targets (again
hardcoded by the target_read_memory/target_write_memory functions), so
this always prints "Input/output error" or similar (depending on
host), or, for remote targets (and probably others), this gem:
Error accessing memory address 0x80200400: Unknown error -1.
This patch makes these 3 places print the exact same error
memory_error prints. This changes output, but I think this is better,
for making memory error output consistent with other commands, and, it
means we have a central place to tweak for memory errors.
E.g., this changes:
Cannot insert breakpoint 1.
Error accessing memory address 0x5fc660: Input/output error.
to:
Cannot insert breakpoint 1.
Cannot access memory at address 0x5fc660
Which I find pretty much acceptable.
Surprisingly, only py-prettyprint.exp had a regression, for needing an
adjustment. I also grepped the testsuite for the old errors, and
found no other hits.
Now that errno values aren't used anywhere in any of these memory
access related routines, I made memory_error itself take a
target_xfer_error instead of an errno. The new
target_xfer_memory_error function added recently is no longer
necessary, and is thus removed.

This patch fixes gdb PR symtab/15597.
The bug is that the .gnu_debugaltlink section includes the build-id of
the alt file, but gdb does not use it.
This patch fixes the problem by changing gdb to do what it ought to
always have done: verify the build id of the file found using the
filename in .gnu_debugaltlink; and if that does not match, try to find
the correct debug file using the build-id and debug-file-directory.
This patch touches BFD. Previously, gdb had its own code for parsing
.gnu_debugaltlink; I changed it to use the BFD functions after those
were introduced. However, the BFD functions are incorrect -- they
assume that .gnu_debugaltlink is formatted like .gnu_debuglink.
However, it it is not. Instead, it consists of a file name followed
by the build-id -- no alignment, and the build-id is not a CRC.
Fixing this properly is a bit of a pain. But, because
separate_alt_debug_file_exists just has a FIXME for the build-id case,
I did not fix it properly. Instead I introduced a hack. This leaves
BFD working just as well as it did before my patch.
I'm willing to do something better here but I could use some guidance
as to what. It seems that the build-id code in BFD is largely punted
on.
FWIW gdb is the only user of bfd_get_alt_debug_link_info outside of
BFD itself.
I moved the build-id logic out of elfread.c and into a new file.
This seemed cleanest to me.
Writing a test case was a bit of a pain. I added a couple new
features to the DWARF assembler to handle this.

Upon trying to print the value of a variant record, a user noticed
the following problem:
(gdb) print rt
warning: Unknown upper bound, using 1.
warning: Unknown upper bound, using 1.
$1 = (a => ((a1 => (4), a2 => (4)), (a1 => (8), a2 => (8))))
The expected output is:
(gdb) print rt
$1 = (a => ((a1 => (4, 4), a2 => (8, 8)), (a1 => (4, 4),
a2 => (8, 8))))
The problems comes from the fact that components "a1" and "a2" are
defined as arrays whose upper bound is dynamic. To determine the value
of that upper bound, GDB relies on the GNAT encoding and searches
for the parallel ___U variable. Unfortunately, the search fails
while doing a binary search inside the partial symtab of the unit
where the array and its bound (and therefore the parallel ___U variable)
are defined.
It fails because partial symbols are sorted using strcmp_iw_ordered,
while Ada symbol lookups are performed using a different comparison
function (ada-lang.c:compare_names). The two functions are supposed
to be compatible, but a change performed in April 2011 modified
strcmp_iw_ordered, introducing case-sensitivity issues. As a result,
the two functions would now disagree when passed the following
two arguments:
string1="common__inner_arr___SIZE_A_UNIT"
string2="common__inner_arr__T4s___U"
The difference starts at "_SIZE_A_UNIT" vs "T4s___U". So, it's mostly
a matter of comparing '_' with 'T'.
On the one hand, strcmp_iw_ordered would return -1, while compare_names
returned 11. The change that made all the difference is that
strcmp_iw_ordered now performs a case-insensitive comparison,
and only resorts to case-sentitive comparison if the first comparison
finds an equality. This changes everything, because while 'T' (84)
and 't' (116) are on opposite sides of '_' (95).
This patch aims at restoring the compatibility between the two
functions, by adding case-sensitivity handling in the Ada comparison
function.

This moves the demangled_names_hash from the objfile into the per-BFD
object. This is part of the objfile splitting project.
The demangled names hash is independent of the program space. And, it

must be pushed into the per-BFD object, which this patch does.

Right now we always share per-BFD data across objfiles, if there is a
BFD. This works fine. However, we're going to start sharing more
data, and sometimes this data will come directly from sections of the
BFD. If such a section has SEC_RELOC set, then the data coming from
that section will not be truly sharable -- the section will be
program-space-dependent, and re-read by gdb for each objfile.
This patch disallows per-BFD sharing in this case. This is a bit
"heavy" in that we could in theory examine each bit of shared data for
suitability. However, that is more complicated, and SEC_RELOC is rare
enough that I think we needn't bother.
Note that the "no sharing" case is equivalent to "gdb works as it
historically did". That is, the sharing is a new(-ish) optimization.

I've made modifications on infrun.c:handle_inferior_event such that
$_exitcode gets cleared when the inferior signalled, and vice-versa.
This assumption was made because the variables are mutually
exclusive, i.e., when the inferior terminates because of an uncaught
signal it is not possible for it to return. I have also made modifications
such that when a corefile is loaded, $_exitsignal gets set to the uncaught
signal that "killed" the inferior, and $_exitcode is cleared.
The patch also adds a NEWS entry, documentation bits, and a testcase. The

The ptid_t contructors, accessors and predicates are documented in
_three_ places, and each place uses a different wording.
E.g, the descriptions in the .c file of the new ptid_lwp_p, ptid_tid_p
weren't updated in the final revision like the descriptions in the .h
file were. Clearly, switching to a style that has a single central
description avoids such issues.
Worse, some of the existing descriptions are plain wrong, such as:
/* Attempt to find and return an existing ptid with the given PID, LWP,
and TID components. If none exists, create a new one and return
that. */
ptid_t ptid_build (int pid, long lwp, long tid);
The function does nothing that complicated. It's just a simple
constructor.
So this gets rid of all the unnecessary descriptions, leaving only the
ones near the function declarations in the header file, and
fixes/clarifies those that remain.

This patch moves pending_event to remote_notif_state. All pending
events are destroyed in remote_notif_state_xfree. However,
discard_pending_stop_replies release pending event too, so the pending
event of stop notification is released twice, we need some refactor
here. We add a new function discard_pending_stop_replies_in_queue
which only discard events in stop_reply_queue, and let
remote_notif_state_xfree release pending event for all notif_client.
After this change, discard_pending_stop_replies is only attached to
ifnerior_exit observer, so the INF can't be NULL any more. The
NULL checking is removed too.

Hi,
This FIXME goes into my eyes, when I am about to modify something here,
/* Name is allocated by name_of_child. */
/* FIXME: xstrdup should not be here. */
This FIXME was introduced in the python pretty-pretter patches.
Python pretty-printing [6/6]
https://sourceware.org/ml/gdb-patches/2009-05/msg00467.html
create_child_with_value is called in two paths,
1. varobj_list_children -> create_child -> create_child_with_value,
2. install_dynamic_child -> install_dynamic_child -> varobj_add_child
-> create_child_with_value
In path #1, 'name' is allocated by name_of_child, as the original
comment said, we don't have to duplicate NAME in
create_child_with_value. In path #2, 'name' is got from
PyArg_ParseTuple, and we have to duplicate NAME.
This patch removes the call to xstrdup in create_child_with_value
and call xstrudp in update_dynamic_varobj_children (path #2).

If enabling PTRACE_O_TRACEFORK fails, we never test for
PTRACE_O_TRACESYSGOOD support. Before PTRACE_O_TRACESYSGOOD is checked,
we have:
/* First, set the PTRACE_O_TRACEFORK option. If this fails, we
know for sure that it is not supported. */
ret = ptrace (PTRACE_SETOPTIONS, child_pid, (PTRACE_TYPE_ARG3) 0,
(PTRACE_TYPE_ARG4) PTRACE_O_TRACEFORK);
if (ret != 0)
{
ret = ptrace (PTRACE_KILL, child_pid, (PTRACE_TYPE_ARG3) 0,
(PTRACE_TYPE_ARG4) 0);
if (ret != 0)
{
warning (_("linux_check_ptrace_features: failed to kill child"));
return;
}
ret = my_waitpid (child_pid, &status, 0);
if (ret != child_pid)
warning (_("linux_check_ptrace_features: failed "
"to wait for killed child"));
else if (!WIFSIGNALED (status))
warning (_("linux_check_ptrace_features: unexpected "
"wait status 0x%x from killed child"), status);
return; <<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<
}
Note that early return. If PTRACE_O_TRACEFORK isn't supported, we're
not checking PTRACE_O_TRACESYSGOOD. This didn't use to be a problem
before the unification of this whole detection business in
linux-ptrace.c. Before, the sysgood detection was completely
separate:
static void
linux_test_for_tracesysgood (int original_pid)
{
int ret;
sigset_t prev_mask;
/* We don't want those ptrace calls to be interrupted. */
block_child_signals (&prev_mask);
linux_supports_tracesysgood_flag = 0;
ret = ptrace (PTRACE_SETOPTIONS, original_pid, 0, PTRACE_O_TRACESYSGOOD);
if (ret != 0)
goto out;
linux_supports_tracesysgood_flag = 1;
out:
restore_child_signals_mask (&prev_mask);
}
So we need to get back the decoupling somehow. I think it's cleaner
to split the seperate feature detections to separate functions. This
patch does that. The new functions are named for their counterparts
that existed before this code was moved to linux-ptrace.c.
Note I've used forward declarations for the new functions to make the
patch clearer, as otherwise the patch would look like I'd be adding a
bunch of new code. A reorder can be done in a follow up patch.
Tested on x86_64 Fedora 17.

* common/linux-ptrace.c (linux_check_ptrace_features): Factor out

Currently, in some scenarios, GDB prints <optimized out> when printing
outer frame registers. An <optimized out> register is a confusing
concept. What this really means is that the register is
call-clobbered, or IOW, not saved by the callee. This patch makes GDB
say that instead.
Before patch:
(gdb) p/x $rax $1 = <optimized out>
(gdb) info registers rax
rax <optimized out>
After patch:
(gdb) p/x $rax
$1 = <not saved>
(gdb) info registers rax
rax <not saved>
However, if for some reason the debug info describes a variable as
being in such a register (**), we still want to print <optimized out>
when printing the variable. IOW, <not saved> is reserved for
inspecting registers at the machine level. The patch uses
lval_register+optimized_out to encode the not saved registers, and
makes it so that optimized out variables always end up in
!lval_register values.
** See <https://sourceware.org/ml/gdb-patches/2012-08/msg00787.html>.
Current/recent enough GCC doesn't mark variables/arguments as being in
call-clobbered registers in the ranges corresponding to function
calls, while older GCCs did. Newer GCCs will just not say where the
variable is, so GDB will end up realizing the variable is optimized
out.
frame_unwind_got_optimized creates not_lval optimized out registers,
so by default, in most cases, we'll see <optimized out>.
value_of_register is the function eval.c uses for evaluating
OP_REGISTER (again, $pc, etc.), and related bits. It isn't used for
anything else. This function makes sure to return lval_register
values. The patch makes "info registers" and the MI equivalent use it
too. I think it just makes a lot of sense, as this makes it so that
when printing machine registers ($pc, etc.), we go through a central
function.
We're likely to need a different encoding at some point, if/when we
support partially saved registers. Even then, I think
value_of_register will still be the spot to tag the intention to print
machine register values differently.
value_from_register however may also return optimized out
lval_register values, so at a couple places where we're computing a
variable's location from a dwarf expression, we convert the resulting
value away from lval_register to a regular optimized out value.

So far elinos.py was assuming that the whole ELinOS environment was
around to find the system libraries; if some environment variables
were missing, the script would just abort.
This was a bit extreme. It is possible to do better than that: to get
the core system libraries, one doesn't need to have a full environment
but just the path to the CDK. The path to kernel project is only
needed for the optional Xenomai libs.

When building the program with the shared GNAT runtime, the debugger
is unable to insert Ada exception catchpoints until that runtime
has been mapped to memory. In other words, we expect the user to start
the program first, before attempting to insert that catchpoint.
The detection mechanism that tries to provide some useful tips to
the user fails when the program itself contains a trampoline symbol
matching the symbol that the catchpoint is trying to use. This
results in the following error message:
(gdb) catch exception
Your Ada runtime appears to be missing some debugging information.
Cannot insert Ada exception catchpoint in this configuration.
Instead, we expected the following error message:
(gdb) catch exception
Unable to insert catchpoint. Try to start the program first.

It is possible to have a build of glibc where SYS_perf_event_open is not

I tried debugging a remote Windows program on Linux host, and pointed the
sysroot to "/some/path/" rather than "remote:", and I found GDB couldn't
find the dlls in the sysroot. If the dll name is
"C:/Windows/system32/ntdll.dll", I end up with the sysroot+in_pathname
concatenated this way:
(top-gdb) p temp_pathname
$1 = 0x228b690 "/some/pathC:/Windows/system32/ntdll.dll"
^^
That is, a directory separator is missing. This is a regression.
The problem is that solib_find decides that since the target path has
a drive spec, a separator is not necessary, which is clearly wrong in
this case. That check was added in
<https://sourceware.org/ml/gdb-patches/2013-06/msg00028.html>, to
handle the case of sysroot being "remote:". This patch fixes that
original issue in a different way. Instead of checking whether the
path has a drive spec, check whether the sysroot is "remote:". The
patch adds a table that helps visualize the cases that need a
separator. I also confirmed the original issue is still handled as
expected. That is, that "set sysroot remote:" still does the right
thing.
remote_filename_p returns true if the filename is prefixed with
"remote:". In this case, we need to check whether the filename is
exactly "remote:". I thought of different ways or either changing
remote_filename_p or adding another convenience function to remote.c
to avoid exposing the "remote:" prefix out of remote.c. But all
attempts turned out adding lot of over needless complication. So the
patch just exposes the prefix behind a new macro, which allows using a
straighforward strcmp.

This patch provides a standalone implementation of function calls
on amd64-windows, instead of providing some bits and pieces hooking
into the function call implementation meant for sysV (in amd64-tdep).
It makes better sense to do it this way, because the two ABIs are
actually very different; for instance, the concept of argument
classification, which is so central in the sysV ABI and drove the
the implementation in amd64-tdep, makes no sense for Windows. It
is therefore better for the Windows implementation to be completely
separate, rather than rely on adaptations of the sysV implementation.

The recent change to make GDB auto-delete thread-specific breakpoints
when the corresponding thread is deleted
(https://sourceware.org/ml/gdb-patches/2013-09/msg00038.html) caused
gdb.base/nextoverexit.exp to regress.

(gdb) FAIL: gdb.base/nextoverexit.exp: next over exit (the program exited)
We shouldn't be seeing this for internal or momentary breakpoints. In
fact, we shouldn't even be trying to delete them, as whatever created
them will take care or it, and therefore it's dangerous to delete them
behind the creator's back.
I thought it'd still be good to tag thread-specific internal/momentary
breakpoints such that we'll no longer try to keep them insert in the
target, as they'll cause stops and thread hops in other threads, so I
tried disabling them instead. That caused a problem when following a
child fork, and detaching from the parent, as we try to reset the
step-resume etc. breakpoints to the new child's thread
(breakpoint_re_set_thread), after the parent thread is already gone
(and the breakpoints are marked disabled). I fixed that by
re-enabling internal/momentary breakpoints there, but, that didn't
feel super safe either (maybe we'd need a new flag in struct
breakpoint instead, to tag the thread-specific breakpoint as "not to
be inserted"). It felt like I was heading down a design rat hole,
and, other things will usually delete internal/momentary breakpoints
soon enough, so I left that little optimization for some other day.
So, internal/momentary breakpoints are no longer deleted/disabled at
all, and we end up with a one-liner fix.

By inspection, I noticed that when I made the gnu-nat use
ptid(pid,0,tid) to represent a thread, instead of using ptid(tid,0,0),
in <https://sourceware.org/ml/gdb-patches/2008-08/msg00175.html>, I
introduced a bug.
The change was:
else
{
- int tid = PIDGET (thread_id_to_pid (atoi (args)));
+ int tid = ptid_get_tid (thread_id_to_pid (atoi (args)));
if (tid < 0)
error (_("Thread ID %s not known. Use the \"info threads\" command to\n"
"see the IDs of currently known threads."), args);
and thread_id_to_pid does:
ptid_t
thread_id_to_pid (int num)
{
struct thread_info *thread = find_thread_id (num);
if (thread)
return thread->ptid;
else
return pid_to_ptid (-1);
}
(pid_to_ptid (-1) is the same as minus_one_ptid.)
So before, we were really looking at the pid, where thread_id_to_pid
stores the -1.
The right fix is to compare the whole ptid to minus_one_ptid, of
course.
Completely untested, but I think it's obvious enough, so I went ahead
and put it in.

Note that the thread-specific breakpoint 3 stayed around, even though
thread 2 is gone.
There's no way that breakpoint can trigger again (*), so the PR argues
that the breakpoint should just be removed, like local watchpoints.
I'm ambivalent on this -- it could be reasonable to disable the
breakpoint (kind of like breakpoint in shared library code when the
DSO is unloaded), so the user could still use it as visual template
for creating other breakpoints (copy/paste command lists, etc.), or we
could have a way to change to which thread a breakpoint applies. But,
several people pushed this direction, and I don't plan on arguing...
(*) - actually, there is ... thread numbers are reset on "run", so
the user could do "break foo thread 2", "run", and expect the
breakpoint to hit again on the second thread. But given gdb's thread
numbering can't really be stable, that'd only work sufficiently well
for thread 1, so we'd better call it unsupported.
So with the patch, whenever a thread is deleted from GDB's list, GDB
goes through the thread-specific breakpoints and deletes corresponding
breakpoints. Since this is user-visible, GDB prints out:
Thread-specific breakpoint 3 deleted - thread 2 is gone.
And of course, we end up with:

The issue is that print_stack_frame always sets the current sal to the
frame's sal. print_frame_info (which print_stack_frame calls to do
most of the work) also sets the last displayed sal, but only if
print_what isn't LOCATION. Now the call in question, from within
thread.c:print_thread_info, does pass in LOCATION as print_what, but
print_stack_frame doesn't have the same check print_frame_info has.
We could consider adding it, but setting these globals depending on
print_what isn't very clean, IMO. What we have is two logically
distinct operations mixed in the same function(s):
#1 - print frame, in the format specified by {print_what,
print_level and print_args}.
#2 - We're displaying a frame to the user, and I want the default
sal to point here, because the program stopped here, or the user
did some context-changing command (up, down, etc.).
So I added a new parameter to print_stack_frame & friends for point
#2, and went through all calls in the tree adjusting as necessary.

This patch adds a new convenience function called $_isvoid, whose
only purpose is to check whether an expression is void or not.
This became necessary because the new convenience variable
$_exitsignal (not yet approved) has a mutual exclusive behavior
with $_exitcode, i.e., when one is "defined" (i.e., non-void),
the other is cleared (i.e., becomes void). Doug wanted a way to
identify which variable to use, and checking for voidness is the
obvious solution.
It is worth mentioning that my first attempt, after a conversation with
Doug, was to actually implement a new $_isdefined() convenience
function. I would do that (for convenience variables) by calling
lookup_only_internalvar. However, I found a few problems:
- Whenever I called $_isdefined ($variable), $variable became defined
(with a void value), and $_isdefined always returned true.
- Then, I tried to implement $_isdefined ("variable"), and do the "$" +
"variable" inside GDB, thus making it impossible for GDB to create the
convenience variable. However, it was hard to extract the string
without having to mess with values and their idiossincrasies.
Therefore, I decided to abandon this attempt (specially because I
didn't want to spend too much time struggling with it).
Anyway, after talking to Doug again we decided that it would be easier
to implement $_isvoid, and this will probably help in cases like
<http://stackoverflow.com/questions/3744554/testing-if-a-gdb-convenience-variable-is-defined>.
I wrote a NEWS entry for it, and some new lines on the documentation.

A couple years ago, dwarf_expr_fetch used to return a CORE_ADDR. It
was made to return a ULONGEST since, and the 'dwarf_regnum' local
adjusted accordingly, but, we kept printing it with paddress.

there's really no point in using ULONGEST/pulongest either.

I noticed that value_of_register (used for getting values _of_
registers ($pc, $rax, etc.), rather than variables _in_ registers),
kind of builds a franken-value, by propagating the lval and address of
the frame register value, but not the entire location, like necessary
for lval_computed (if some unwinder ever returns that, the resulting
value will misbehave). This gets in the way of printing optimized out
(not saved) lval_registers differently from other optimized out
values, as it doesn't make sure the resulting value is lval_register.
I started out by just doing something like:
- VALUE_LVAL (reg_val) = lval;
- set_value_address (reg_val, addr);
+ VALUE_LVAL (reg_val) = lval_register;
... just like value_of_register_lazy below. That's sufficient to fix
the issue.
Then I noticed this is using frame_register, which we should avoid
nowadays, for it returns elements of a value, but not all that's
sometimes necessary (unavailable-ness is all or nothing with it, for
instance), and considered using get_frame_register_value instead
(which returns a struct value), and value_contents_copy, just like
value_fetch_lazy's handling of lval_register. But at that point, I
realized we might as well just defer all that work to
value_of_register_lazy/value_fetch_lazy...
Doing it this way adds a frame_find_by_id lookup (from within
value_fetch_lazy), while we already have a frame pointer handy in
value_of_register. I considered factoring out the lazy register
fetching out of value_fetch_lazy, into a function that takes a frame
pointer and call that instead, avoiding the lookup, but then it looked
like too much complication for an early optimization, and went back to
keeping it simple.
Tested on x86_64 Fedora 17.

* findvar.c (value_of_register): Rework in terms of

I stumbled on the TUI's register-changed decision code before (used to
decided whether the register should be highlighted in the register
window), for it is trying to compare all the different possible states
and contents or previous/current register contents, and as such may
need updating whenever the value machinery changes to have more state.
It's just much simpler and more future proof to compare the
previous/current printable representation instead.
The bit in tui_register_format that returns early if the register has
no name gets a bit in the way of the new prototype (what to return in
that case? NULL, empty string, etc.?). Fortunately, that check isn't
really necessary. All the callers will have already skipped unnamed
registers.

* tui/tui-regs.c (tui_register_format): Don't look at the
register's name here. Return string representing register
value instead of storing it in the data element.
(tui_get_register): Compare register string representations
instead of register value states and contents.
I've stumbled on this by inspection.
When the TUI's register window is first displayed, it always shows the
registers of the current frame, instead of of the selected frame,
which is obviously bogus.
E.g.,
(gdb) step # into "function"
(gdb) up
(gdb) tui reg general # or C-x 2, C-x 2
shows the registers of "function", rather than the caller's.
A subsequent:
(gdb) frame
or
(gdb) down
(gdb) up
can be used as workaround to "fix" it.

When I looked for print_stack_frame calls in MI, I wondered why this
one passing down SRC_AND_LOC. print_stack_frame does:
/* For mi, alway print location and address. */
if (ui_out_is_mi_like_p (current_uiout))
print_what = LOC_AND_ADDRESS;
So it really doesn't matter which value is passed down, but, to avoid
confusion in readers, it's better to use the MI standard here.
There's another SRC_AND_LOC in mi-interp.c, but that one makes sense.
