... like the kernel does.
gcore-thread.exp has a check to make sure the signalled thread is the
current thread after loading the core back, but that just works by
accident, because the signalled thread happened to be the last thread
on the thread list, and gdb currently iterates over threads in reverse
order.
So this fixes gcore-thread.exp once we start walking threads in
ascending number.
gdb/ChangeLog:
2015-11-24 Pedro Alves <palves@redhat.com>
* linux-tdep.c (find_stop_signal): Delete.
(struct linux_corefile_thread_data) <pid>: Remove field.
(linux_corefile_thread_callback): Rename to ...
(linux_corefile_thread): ... this. Now takes a struct
linux_corefile_thread_data pointer rather than a void pointer.
Remove thread state and thread pid checks.
(linux_make_corefile_notes): Prefer dumping the signalled thread
first. Use ALL_NON_EXITED_THREADS instead of
iterate_over_threads.
There are a number of failures for the arm-wince-pe targets, most are due
to the test being invalid for the target.
This patch adjusts the invalid tests to either make them valid or to set
them as skipped for arm-wince-pe targets.

When trying to save fast tracepoints to file, gdb returns internal failure:
gdb/breakpoint.c:13446: internal-error: unhandled tracepoint type 27
A problem internal to GDB has been detected, further debugging may prove unreliable.
And no file including the fast tracepoints definition is created.
The patch also extends save-trace.exp to test saving tracepoint with a
fast tracepoint in there. Note that because this test doesn't actually
inserts the tracepoints in the program, we can run it with targets that
don't actually support fast tracepoints (or tracepoints at all).
gdb/ChangeLog:
* breakpoint.c (tracepoint_print_recreate): Fix logic error
if -> else if.
gdb/testsuite/ChangeLog:
* gdb.trace/actions.c: Include trace-common.h.
(main): Add a location for a fast tracepoint.
* gdb.trace/save-trace.exp: Set a fast tracepoint in addition to
the normal tracepoints.
(gdb_verify_tracepoints): Adjust number of expected tracepoints.
Some code is duplicated, to run the test twice with absolute and
relative paths, so I factored it out in a few procs. It uses
with_test_prefix to differentiate between test runs.
I replaced usages of "save-tracepoints" with "save tracepoint", since
the former is deprecated.
I also removed the "10.x", as it doesn't make much sense anymore. It
isn't used in general in the testsuite, and I don't think it's really
useful.
gdb/testsuite/ChangeLog:
* save-trace.exp: Factor out code to these...
(gdb_save_tracepoints): New.
(gdb_load_tracepoints): New.
(do_save_load_test): New.
The comment for the code in question says:
/* If the minimal symbol has a zero size, save it
but keep scanning backwards looking for one with
a non-zero size. A zero size may mean that the
symbol isn't an object or function (e.g. a
label), or it may just mean that the size was not
specified. */
As written, the code in question will only scan past the first symbol
of zero size. My change fixes the implementation to match the
comment.
Having this correct is important when the compiler generates several
local labels that are left in place by the linker. (I've been told
that the linker should eliminate these symbols, but I know of one
architecture for which this is not happening.)
I've created a test case called asmlabel.c. It's pretty simple:
main (int argc, char **argv)
{
asm ("L0:");
v = 0;
asm ("L1:");
v = 1; /* set L1 breakpoint here */
asm ("L2:");
v = 2; /* set L2 breakpoint here */
return 0;
}
If breakpoints are placed on the lines indicated by the comments,
this is the behavior of GDB built without my patch:
(gdb) continue
Continuing.
Breakpoint 2, L1 () at asmlabel.c:26
26 v = 1; /* set L1 breakpoint here */
Note that L1 appears as the function instead of main. This is not
what we want to happen. With my patch in place, we see the desired
behavior instead:
(gdb) continue
Continuing.
Breakpoint 2, main (argc=1, argv=0x7fffffffdb88) at asmlabel.c:26
26 v = 1; /* set L1 breakpoint here */
gdb/ChangeLog:

One of our users reported an internal error using the "bt full"
command. In their situation, reproducing involved the following
scenario:
(gdb) frame 1
(gdb) bt full
#0 0xf7783430 in __kernel_vsyscall ()
No symbol table info available.
#1 0xf5550aeb in waitpid () at ../sysdeps/unix/syscall-template.S:81
No locals.
[...]
#6 0x0fe83139 in xxxx (arg=...)
[...some locals printed, and then...]
<S17b> =
[...]/dwarf2loc.c:364: internal-error: dwarf_expr_frame_base: Assertion
`framefunc != NULL' failed.
As shown above, the error happens while GDB is trying to print the value
of <S17b>, which is a local string internally generated by the compiler.
For that, it finds that the array lives in memory, and therefore tries
to create a struct value for it via:
case DWARF_VALUE_MEMORY:
{
CORE_ADDR address = dwarf_expr_fetch_address (ctx, 0);
[...]
retval = value_at_lazy (type, address + byte_offset);
Unfortunately for us, TYPE happens to be an array whose bounds
are dynamic. More precisely, the bounds of our arrays are described
in the debugging info as being...
<4><2c1985e>: Abbrev Number: 33 (DW_TAG_subrange_type)
<2c1985f> DW_AT_type : <0x2c1989c>
<2c19863> DW_AT_lower_bound : <0x2c19835>
<2c19867> DW_AT_upper_bound : <0x2c19841>
... which are references to a pair of local variables. For instance,
the lower bound is a reference to the following DIE
<3><2c19835>: Abbrev Number: 32 (DW_TAG_variable)
<2c19836> DW_AT_name : [...]
<2c1983a> DW_AT_type : <0x2c198b4>
<2c1983e> DW_AT_artificial : 1
<2c1983e> DW_AT_location : 2 byte block: 91 58 (DW_OP_fbreg: -40)
As a result of the above, value_at_lazy indirectly triggers
a resolution of TYPE (via value_from_contents_and_address),
which means a resolution of TYPE's bounds, and as seen in
the DW_AT_location attribute above for our bounds, computing
the bound's location requires the frame (its location expression
uses DW_OP_fbreg).
Unfortunately for us, value_at_lazy does not get passed a frame,
we've lost the relevant frame when we try to resolve the array's
bounds. Instead, resolve_dynamic_range gets calls dwarf2_evaluate_property
with NULL as the frame:
static struct type *
resolve_dynamic_range (struct type *dyn_range_type,
struct property_addr_info *addr_stack)
{
[...]
if (dwarf2_evaluate_property (prop, NULL, addr_stack, &value))
^^^^
... which then handles this by using the selected frame instead:
if (frame == NULL && has_stack_frames ())
frame = get_selected_frame (NULL);
In our case, the selected frame happens to be frame #1, which is
a frame where we have a minimal amount of debugging info, and in
particular, no debug info for the function itself. And because of that,
when we try to determine the frame's base...
static void
dwarf_expr_frame_base (void *baton, const gdb_byte **start,
size_t * length)
{
struct dwarf_expr_baton *debaton = (struct dwarf_expr_baton *) baton;
const struct block *bl = get_frame_block (debaton->frame, NULL);
[...]
framefunc = block_linkage_function (bl);
... framefunc ends up being NULL, which triggers the assert
in that same function:
gdb_assert (framefunc != NULL);
This patches avoids the issue by temporarily setting the selected_frame
before printing the locals of each frames.
This patch also adds a small testcase, which reproduces the same
issue, but with a slightly different outcome:
(gdb) bt full
#0 0x000000000040049a in opaque_routine ()
No symbol table info available.
#1 0x0000000000400532 in main () at wrong_frame_bt_full-main.c:20
my_table_size = 3
my_table = <error reading variable my_table (frame address is not available.)>
With this patch, the output becomes:
(gdb) bt full
[...]
my_table = {0, 1, 2}
gdb/ChangeLog:
* stack.c (print_frame_local_vars): Temporarily set the selected
frame to FRAME while printing the frame's local variables.

This crash is observable by debugging a threaded program on LynxOS.
On the GDB side, this is what we would see:
% gdb q
(gdb) target remote machine:4444
(gdb) break q.adb:6
(gdb) cont
[gdb hits breakpoint]
(gdb) cont
Remote connection closed <<<--- expected: [Inferior 1 (Remote target) exited normally]
On the gdbserver side, which was launched as usual:
% gdbserver --once :4444 q
Segmentation fault (core dumped)
Ooops!
The problem happens while GDB is trying to handle the thread termination
event of the thread that hit the breakpoint. It started happening after
the following change was made:
commit 96e7a1eb6d
Date: Fri Oct 16 11:08:38 2015 -0400
Subject: gdbserver: Reset current_thread when the thread is removed.
Reset current_thread and make sure 'remove_process' is used
after all associated threads have been removed first.
More precisely:
. GDBserver receives the execution-resume order;
. lynx-low resumes it succesfully, and then relies on lynx_wait_1
to wait for the next event;
. We quickly receive one, which lynx_wait_1 analyzes to be
a "thread exit" event, and therefore does...
case SIGTHREADEXIT:
remove_thread (find_thread_ptid (new_ptid));
lynx_continue (new_ptid);
goto retry;
=> remove_thread causes current_thread to be set to NULL...
(that's the recent change mentioned above)
=> ... which causes problems during lynx_continue, because
it calls lynx_resume, which calls regcache_invalidate,
which unfortunately assumes that CURRENT_THREAD is not NULL:
void
regcache_invalidate (void)
{
/* Only update the threads of the current process. */
SEGV!--> int pid = ptid_get_pid (current_thread->entry.id);
find_inferior (&all_threads, regcache_invalidate_one, &pid);
}
Since the problem at hand is caused by trying to figure out which
inferior to reset the regcache for, and since lynx_resume actually
had that info, this patch fixes the problem by introducing a new
routine called regcache_invalidate_pid, which invalidates the cache
of the given pid; and then modifies lynx_resume use that new routine
rather than relying on regcache_invalidate to invalidate the regcache
of the expected inferior.
gdb/gdbserver/ChangeLog:
* regcache.h (regcache_invalidate_pid): Add declaration.
* regcache.c (regcache_invalidate_pid): New function, extracted
from regcache_invalidate.
(regcache_invalidate): Reimplement using regcache_invalidate_pid.
Add trivial documentation comment.
* lynx-low.c: Use regcache_invalidate_pid instead of
regcache_invalidate.
We noticed the following hang trying to run a program where one
of the subroutines we built without debugging info (opaque_routine):
$ gdb my_program
(gdb) break opaque_routine
(gdb) run
[...hangs...]
The problem comes from the fact that, at the breakpoint's address,
we have the following code:
=> 0x0000000000401994 <+4>: pop %rbp
At some point after hitting the breakpoint and stopping, GDB calls
amd64_windows_frame_decode_epilogue, which then gets stuck in the
following infinite loop:
| /* We don't care about the instruction deallocating the frame:
| if it hasn't been executed, the pc is still in the body,
| if it has been executed, the following epilog decoding will work. */
|
| /* First decode:
| - pop reg [41 58-5f] or [58-5f]. */
|
| while (1)
| {
| /* Read opcode. */
| if (target_read_memory (pc, &op, 1) != 0)
| return -1;
|
| if (op >= 0x40 && op <= 0x4f)
| {
| /* REX prefix. */
| rex = op;
|
| /* Read opcode. */
| if (target_read_memory (pc + 1, &op, 1) != 0)
| return -1;
| }
| else
| rex = 0;
|
| if (op >= 0x58 && op <= 0x5f)
| {
| /* pop reg */
| gdb_byte reg = (op & 0x0f) | ((rex & 1) << 3);
|
| cache->prev_reg_addr[amd64_windows_w2gdb_regnum[reg]] = cur_sp;
| cur_sp += 8;
| }
| else
| break;
|
| /* Allow the user to break this loop. This shouldn't happen as the
| number of consecutive pop should be small. */
| QUIT;
| }
Nothing in that loop updates PC, and therefore, because the instruction
we stopped at is a "pop", we keep looping forever doing the same thing
over and over!
This patch fixes the issue by advancing PC to the beginning of
the next instruction if the current one is a "pop reg" instruction.
gdb/ChangeLog:
* amd64-windows-tdep.c (amd64_windows_frame_decode_epilogue):
Increment PC in while loop skipping "pop reg" instructions.
The following issue has been observed on arm-android, trying to step
over the following line of code:
Put_Line (">>> " & Integer'Image (Message (I)));
Below is a copy of the GDB transcript:
(gdb) cont
Breakpoint 1, q.dump (message=...) at q.adb:11
11 Put_Line (">>> " & Integer'Image (Message (I)));
(gdb) next
0x00016000 in system.concat_2.str_concat_2 ()
The expected behavior for the "next" command is to step over
the call to Put_Line and stop at line 12:
(gdb) next
12 I := I + 1;
What happens during the next step is that the code for line 11
above make a call to system.concat_2.str_concat_2 (to implement
the '&' string concatenation operator) before making the call
to Put_Line. While stepping, GDB stops eventually stops at the
first instruction of that function, and fails to detect that
it's a function call from where we were before, and so decides
to stop stepping.
And the reason why it fails to detect that we landed inside a function
call is because it fails to unwind from that function:
(gdb) bt
#0 0x00016000 in system.concat_2.str_concat_2 ()
#1 0x0001bc74 in ?? ()
Debugging GDB, I found that GDB decides to use the ARM unwind info
for that function, which contains the following data:
0x16000 <system__concat_2__str_concat_2>: 0x80acb0b0
Compact model index: 0
0xac pop {r4, r5, r6, r7, r8, r14}
0xb0 finish
0xb0 finish
But, in fact, using that data is wrong, in this case, because
it mentions a pop of 6 registers, and therefore hints at a frame
size of 24 bytes. The problem is that, because we're at the first
instruction of the function, the 6 registers haven't been pushed
to the stack yet. In other words, using the ARM unwind entry above,
GDB is tricked into thinking that the frame size is 24 bytes, and
that the return address (r14) is available on the stack.
One visible manifestation of this issue can been seen by looking
at the value of the stack pointer, and the frame's base address:
(gdb) p /x $sp
$2 = 0xbee427b0
(gdb) info frame
Stack level 0, frame at 0xbee427c8:
^^^^^^^^^^
||||||||||
The frame's base address should be equal to the value of the stack
pointer at entry. And you eventually get the correct frame address,
as well as the correct backtrace if you just single-step one additional
instruction, past the push:
(gdb) x /i $pc
=> 0x16000 <system__concat_2__str_concat_2>:
push {r4, r5, r6, r7, r8, lr}
(gdb) stepi
(gdb) bt
#0 0x00016004 in system.concat_2.str_concat_2 ()
#1 0x00012b6c in q.dump (message=...) at q.adb:11
#2 0x00012c3c in q () at q.adb:19
Digging further, I found that GDB tries to use the ARM unwind info
only when sure that it is relevant, as explained in the following
comment:
/* The ARM exception table does not describe unwind information
for arbitrary PC values, but is guaranteed to be correct only
at call sites. We have to decide here whether we want to use
ARM exception table information for this frame, or fall back [...]
There is one case where it decides that the info is relevant,
described in the following comment:
/* We also assume exception information is valid if we're currently
blocked in a system call. The system library is supposed to
ensure this, so that e.g. pthread cancellation works.
For that, it just parses the instruction at the address it believes
to be the point of call, and matches it against an "svc" instruction.
For instance, for a non-thumb instruction, it is at...
get_frame_pc (this_frame) - 4
... and the code checking looks like the following.
if (safe_read_memory_integer (get_frame_pc (this_frame) - 4, 4,
byte_order_for_code, &insn)
&& (insn & 0x0f000000) == 0x0f000000 /* svc */)
exc_valid = 1;
However, the reason why this doesn't work in our case is that
because we are at the first instruction of a function in the innermost
frame. That frame can't possibly be making a call, and therefore
be stuck on a system call.
What the code above ends up doing is checking the instruction
just before the start of our function, which in our case is not
even an actual instruction, but unlucky for us, happens to match
the pattern it is looking for, thus leading GDB to improperly
trust the ARM unwinding data.
gdb/ChangeLog:
* arm-tdep.c (arm_exidx_unwind_sniffer): Do not check for a frame
stuck on a system call if the given frame is the innermost frame.

Using the gdb.ada/var_rec_arr.exp test, where the program declares
an array of variant records...
type Record_Type (I : Small_Type := 0) is record
S : String (1 .. I);
end record;
type Array_Type is array (Integer range <>) of Record_Type;
... and then a variable A1 of type Array_Type, the following command
ocassionally trigger an internal error trying to allocate more memory
than we have left:
(gdb) ptype a1(1)
[...]/utils.c:1089: internal-error: virtual memory exhausted.
A problem internal to GDB has been detected,
[...]
What happens is that recent versions of GNAT are able to generate
DWARF expressions for type Record_Type, and therefore the record's
DW_AT_byte_size is not a constant, which unfortunately breaks
an assumption made by dwarf2read.c:read_structure_type when it does:
attr = dwarf2_attr (die, DW_AT_byte_size, cu);
if (attr)
{
TYPE_LENGTH (type) = DW_UNSND (attr);
}
As a result of this, when ada_evaluate_subexp tries to create
a value_zero for a1(1) while processing the OP_FUNCALL operator
as part of evaluating the subscripting operation in no-side-effect
mode, we try to allocate a value with a bogus size, potentially
triggering the out-of-memory internal error.
This patch avoids this issue by setting the length to zero in
this case. Until we decide to start supporting dynamic type
lengths in GDB's type struct, and it's not clear yet that
this is worth the effort (see added comment), that's probably
the best we can do.
gdb/ChangeLog:
* dwarf2read.c (read_structure_type): Set the type's length
to zero if it has a DW_AT_byte_size attribute which is not
a constant.
gdb/testsuite/ChangeLog:

Keeping track of the right printf formats for the various types can be
a pretty big hassle, especially in common code which has to support a
variety of bitsizes. Take a page from the existing standards and add
a set of PRI macros which hide the details in a common header.
This is not entirely useful as avr doesn't (yet) store its register
state in the cpu state, but it does allow for switching to the common
code for these functions.
This patch fixes a typo in target.c:read_memory_robust, where
it calls read_whatever_is_readable with the function arguments
in the wrong order. Depending on the address being read, it
can cause an xmalloc with a huge size, resulting in an assertion
failure, or just read something other than what was requested.
The problem only arises when GDB is handling an MI
"-data-read-memory-bytes" request and the initial target_read returns
an error status. Note that read_memory_robust is only called from
the MI code.
gdb/ChangeLog:
* gdb/target.c (read_memory_robust): Call
read_whatever_is_readable with arguments in the correct order.

The Linux kernel disables the FPU upon returning to userland. This

The target_process_qsupported method is called for each qSupported
feature that the common code does not recognize. The only current
implementation, for x86 Linux (x86_linux_process_qsupported), assumes
that it either is called with the "xmlRegisters=i386" feature, or that
it is isn't called at all, indicating the connected GDB predates x86
XML descriptions.
That's a bad assumption however. If GDB sends in a new/unknown (to
core gdbserver) feature after "xmlRegisters=i386", say, something like
qSupported:xmlRegisters=i386;UnknownFeature+, then when
target_process_qsupported is called for "UnknownFeature+",
x86_linux_process_qsupported clears the 'use_xml' global and calls
x86_linux_update_xmltarget, and gdbserver ends up _not_ reporting a
XML description...
This commit changes the target_process_qsupported API to instead pass
down a vector of unprocessed qSupported features in one go.
(There's an early call to target_process_qsupported(NULL) that
indicates "starting qSupported processing". There's no matching call
to mark the end of processing, though. I first fixed this by passing
(char *)-1 to indicate that, and adjusted the x86 backend to only
clear 'use_xml' when qSupported processing starts, and then only call
x86_linux_update_xmltarget() when (char *)-1 was passed. However, I
wasn't that happy with the hack and came up this alternative version.)
gdb/gdbserver/ChangeLog:
2015-11-19 Pedro Alves <palves@redhat.com>
* linux-low.c (linux_process_qsupported): Change prototype.
Adjust.
* linux-low.h (struct linux_target_ops) <process_qsupported>:
Change prototype.
* linux-x86-low.c (x86_linux_process_qsupported): Change prototype
and adjust to loop over all features.
* server.c (handle_query) <qSupported>: Adjust to call
target_process_qsupported once, passing it a vector of unprocessed
features.
* target.h (struct target_ops) <process_qsupported>: Change
prototype.
(target_process_qsupported): Adjust.
gdbserver's target_process_qsupported is called for each feature that
the gdbserver common code does not recognize. The only current
implementation, for x86 Linux, does this:
static void
x86_linux_process_qsupported (const char *query)
{
/* Return if gdb doesn't support XML. If gdb sends "xmlRegisters="
with "i386" in qSupported query, it supports x86 XML target
descriptions. */
use_xml = 0;
if (query != NULL && startswith (query, "xmlRegisters="))
{
char *copy = xstrdup (query + 13);
char *p;
for (p = strtok (copy, ","); p != NULL; p = strtok (NULL, ","))
{
if (strcmp (p, "i386") == 0)
{
use_xml = 1;
break;
}
}
free (copy);
}
x86_linux_update_xmltarget ();
}
Notice that this clears use_xml and calls x86_linux_update_xmltarget
each time target_process_qsupported is called. So if gdb sends in any
unknown feature after "xmlRegisters=i386", like e.g.,
"xmlRegisters=i386;UnknownFeature+" gdbserver ends up not reporting a
XML description...
Work around this by having GDB send the "xmlRegisters=" feature last.

* remote.c (remote_query_supported): Send the "xmlRegisters="
feature last.
