Currently, with an ambiguous "list first,last", we get:
(gdb) list bar,main
Specified first line 'bar' is ambiguous:
file: "src/gdb/testsuite/gdb.cp/overload.cc", line number: 97
file: "src/gdb/testsuite/gdb.cp/overload.cc", line number: 98
This commit makes gdb's output above a bit clearer by printing the
symbol name as well:
(gdb) list bar,main
Specified first line 'bar' is ambiguous:
file: "src/gdb/testsuite/gdb.cp/overload.cc", line number: 97, symbol: "bar(A)"
file: "src/gdb/testsuite/gdb.cp/overload.cc", line number: 98, symbol: "bar(B)"
And while at it, makes gdb print the symbol name when actually listing
multiple locations too. I.e., before (with "set listsize 2"):
(gdb) list bar
file: "src/gdb/testsuite/gdb.cp/overload.cc", line number: 97
96
97 int bar (A) { return 11; }
file: "src/gdb/testsuite/gdb.cp/overload.cc", line number: 98
97 int bar (A) { return 11; }
98 int bar (B) { return 22; }
After:
(gdb) list bar
file: "src/gdb/testsuite/gdb.cp/overload.cc", line number: 97, symbol: "bar(A)"
96
97 int bar (A) { return 11; }
file: "src/gdb/testsuite/gdb.cp/overload.cc", line number: 98, symbol: "bar(B)"
97 int bar (A) { return 11; }
98 int bar (B) { return 22; }
Currently, the result of decoding a linespec loses information about
the original symbol that was found. All we end up with is an address.
This makes it difficult to find the original symbol again to get at
its print name. Fix that by storing a pointer to the symbol in the
sal. We already store the symtab and obj_section, so it feels like a
natural progression to me. This avoids having to do any extra symbol
lookup too.

* gdb.base/list-ambiguous.exp (test_list_ambiguous_symbol): Expect
symbol names in gdb's output.
* gdb.cp/overload.exp ("list all overloads"): Likewise.
The "list" command allows specifying the name of variables as
argument, not just functions, so that users can type "list
a_global_variable".
That support is a broken when it comes to ambiguous locations though.
If there's more than one such global variable in the program, e.g.,
static globals in different compilation units, GDB ends up listing the
source of the first variable it finds, only.
linespec.c does find both symbol and minsym locations for all the
globals. The problem is that it ends up merging all the resulting
sals into one, because they all have address, zero. I.e., all sals
end up with sal.pc == 0, so maybe_add_address returns false for all
but the first.
The zero addresses appear because:
- in the minsyms case, linespec.c:minsym_found incorrectly treats all
minsyms as if they were function/text symbols. In list mode we can
end up with data symbols there, and we shouldn't be using
find_pc_sect_line on data symbols.
- in the debug symbols case, symbol_to_sal misses recording an address
(sal.pc) for non-block, non-label symbols.
gdb/ChangeLog:
2017-09-20 Pedro Alves <palves@redhat.com>

This works like 'start' but it stops at the first instruction rather
than the first line in main(). This is useful if one wants to single

* unittests/xml-utils-selftests.c: New file.
With the growing number of selftests, I think it would be useful to be
able to run only a subset of the tests. This patch associates a name to
each registered selftest. It then allows doing something like:
(gdb) maintenance selftest aarch64
Running self-tests.
Running selftest aarch64-analyze-prologue.
Running selftest aarch64-process-record.
Ran 2 unit tests, 0 failed
or with gdbserver:
./gdbserver --selftest=aarch64
In both cases, only the tests that contain "aarch64" in their name are
ran. To help validate that the tests you want to run were actually ran,
it also prints a message with the test name before running each test.
Right now, all the arch-dependent tests are registered as a single test
of the selftests. To be able to filter those too, I made them
"first-class citizen" selftests. The selftest type is an interface,
with different implementations for "simple selftests" and "arch
selftests". The run_tests function simply iterates on that an invokes
operator() on each test.
I changed the tests data structure from a vector to a map, because
- it allows iterating in a stable (alphabetical) order
- it allows to easily verify if a test with a given name has been
registered, to avoid duplicates
There's also a new command "maintenance info selftests" that lists the
registered selftests.
gdb/ChangeLog:
* common/selftest.h (selftest): New struct/interface.

This is a followup patch to the build breakage fix on AArch64. While
doing the fix, I found it better to convert tdesc->reg_defs (on
gdbserver/tdesc.h) from using VEC to using std::vector. This makes
the code easier to read and maintain, and also is one more step
towards the C++fication.
Regtested on BuildBot.

As explained in the previous patch, the gdb_id concept is no longer
relevant. The function thread_to_gdb_id is trivial, it returns the

From what I understand, this function is not doing anything useful as of
today.
Here's the result of my archeological research:
- The field thread_info::gdb_id was added in
a06660f7 Use LWP IDs for thread IDs in gdbserver
There was problem when using a 32-bits gdb with a 64-bits gdbserver.
For some reason that I don't fully understand, the thread ids
exchanged between gdb and gdbserver could overflow a 32 bits data
type. My guess is that they were the thread address (e.g. the
0x7ffff7f20b40 in "Thread 0x7ffff7f20b40 (LWP 1058)" today). This
patch changed that so gdb/gdbserver would talk in terms of the OS
assigned numerical id (as shown in ps). It therefore added a way to
convert between this gdb_id (the numerical id) and the thread id (the
address).
- 95954743cb Implement the multiprocess extensions, and add linux
multiprocess supportNon-stop mode support.
This patch made gdbserver deal with threads using their numerical ids
and not the address-like id. Starting from there, the gdb_id <->
thread id conversion was not needed anymore, since the remote protocol
and gdbserver were using the same kind of ids again. The gdb_id field
in the thread_info structure was also unused starting there.
- d50171e4 Teach linux gdbserver to step-over-breakpoints.
This patch moved the thread_info structure around, and got rid of the
gdb_id field (which was unused).
Looking at the implementation of gdb_id_to_thread_id, it is not doing
anything useful. It is looking up a thread by ptid using
find_thread_ptid, which basically loops over all threads looking at
their entry.id field. If a thread with that ptid is found, it returns
its entry.id field. So it will always return the same thing as it input
(with the exception of if no thread exist with that ptid, then it will
return null_ptid).
gdb/gdbserver/ChangeLog:
* inferiors.h (gdb_id_to_thread_id): Remove.
* inferiors.c (gdb_id_to_thread_id): Remove.
* server.c (process_serial_event): Adjust to gdb_id_to_thread_id
removal. Move pid declaration closer to where it's used.
The code required to handle the 'D' packet is non trivial, so move it
out to its own function.
The moved out code is identical, except for the call to strtol and some
breaks that became returns.
Tested manually, and by running gdb.base/*detach*.exp with
native-gdbserver and native-extended-gdbserver.
gdb/gdbserver/ChangeLog:
* server.c (handle_detach): New function.
(process_serial_event): Move code out, call handle_detach.
I find it very confusing to define the require_running in the middle of

Christophe Lyon told me that GDB build failed on i386-linux with
--enable-64-bit-bfd=yes, so I audit the gdb/configure.tgt again. I

Replace the manually managed array with a vector. It is mostly
straightforward, except maybe one thing in execute_stack_op, in the
handling of DW_OP_fbreg. When the code stumbles on that opcode while
evaluating an expression, it needs to evaluate a subexpression to find
where the fb reg has been saved. Rather than creating a new context, it
reuses the current context. It saves the size of the stack before and
restores the stack to that size after.
I think we can do a little bit better by saving the current stack
locally and installing a new empty stack. This way, if the
subexpression is malformed and underflows, we'll get an exception.
Before, it would have overwritten the top elements of the top-level
expression. The evaluation of the top-level expression would have then
resumed with the same stack size, but possibly some corrupted elements.

I'm seeing these failures on my system:

The problem is simply that GDB is finding a symbol named "mult" from
glibc's debug info:
(gdb) ptype mult

This patch replaces the usage of VEC to store pointers to probe_ops with

Change collect_probes so it returns an std::vector<bound_probe> instead
of a VEC(bound_probe_s). This allows removing some cleanups. It also
seems like enable_probes_command and disable_probes_command were not
freeing that vector.
The comparison function compare_probes needs to be updated to return a
bool indicating whether the first parameter is "less than" the second
parameter.
I defined two constructors to bound_probe. The default constructor is
needed, for example, so the instance in struct bp_location can be
constructed without parameters. The constructor with parameters is
useful so we can use emplace_back and pass the values directly.
The s390 builder on the buildbot shows a weird failure that I can't
explain:

This patch changes one usage of VEC to std::vector. It is a relatively
straightforward 1:1 change. The implementations of
sym_probe_fns::sym_get_probes return a borrowed reference to their probe
vectors, meaning that the caller should not free it. In the new code, I
made them return a const reference to the vector.
This patch and the following one were tested by the buildbot. I didn't
see any failures that looked related to this one.

Change extract_arg to return a std::string and fix up all the users.
I think string is mildly better than unique_xmalloc_ptr<char>, when
possible, because it provides a more robust API.
I changed the error messages emitted from find_location_by_number to
avoid either writing to a string or an extra allocation; this can be
changed but I thought that the new message was not any less clear.
You can see an example in the testsuite patch.

This renames a few functions -- skip_spaces_const,
skip_to_space_const, get_number_const, extract_arg_const -- to drop
the "_const" suffix and instead rely on overloading.
This makes future const fixes simpler by reducing the number of lines
that must be changed. I think it is also not any less clear, as all
these functions have the same interface as their non-const versions by
design. Furthermore there's an example of using an overload in-tree
already, namely check_for_argument.
This patch was largely created using some perl one-liners; then a few
fixes were applied by hand.

The first patch in this series went through several iterations as I'd
forgotten how many places had to be touched to add a new event and a
new event type.
This patch simplifies the process using two new ".def" files. Now, a
new event type can be added by adding a line to "py-event-types.def",
and a new event registry can be added by adding a line to
"py-all-events.def".

It seems cleaner to me for functions like create_thread_event_object,
which pass object ownership to their callers, to directly return a
gdb_ref<>. This way the ownership transfer is part of the API. This
patch makes this change.

This adds a few new events to gdb's Python layer: new_inferior,
inferior_deleted, and new_thread. I wanted to be able to add a
combined inferior/thread display window to my GUI, and I needed a few
events to make this work. This is PR python/15622.

The last commit unfortunately was not enough to fix the build breakage
on AArch64. I made a mistake and did not test it alone on BuildBot,
but along with another patch that was responsible for fixing the
breakage.
The failure is:
In file included from /usr/include/string.h:640:0,

__warn_memset_zero_len ();
This is likely due to a GCC bug, because for some reason the compiler
assumes that the third argument to the memset:
memset (regcache->register_status, REG_UNAVAILABLE,
VEC_length (tdesc_reg_p, regcache->tdesc->reg_defs));
is always zero, which is not always true.
Anyway, the simple fix for this is to guard the memset calls with:
if (!VEC_empty (tdesc_reg_p, regcache->tdesc->reg_defs))
This time, I made sure to regtest only this patch on BuildBot, and it
finally solved the breakage.

This patch fixes the build breakage that has been happening on AArch64
since September 5th. The breakage was introduced by the following

commit f7000548a2
Use VEC for target_desc.reg_defs
The build log for this commit can be seen here:
<https://gdb-build.sergiodj.net/builders/Ubuntu-AArch64-native-gdbserver-m64/builds/2696/steps/compile%20gdb/logs/stdio>
And the underlying problem is that the code is not calling the new
function "allocate_target_description" to allocate the "struct
target_desc" using "new" instead of XNEW, which end up not properly
initializing the fields of the structure.
Regtested on BuildBot.
gdb/gdbserver/ChangeLog:
2017-09-10 Sergio Durigan Junior <sergiodj@redhat.com>
* linux-low.c (handle_extended_wait): Use
"allocate_target_description" instead of "XNEW".
* linux-x86-low.c (initialize_low_arch): Likewise.
Recent changes made gdb_stderr a macro:
#define gdb_stderr (*current_ui_gdb_stderr_ptr ())
and current_ui_gdb_stderr_ptr return this:
¤t_ui->m_gdb_stderr
The problem is that this is undefined if current_ui is NULL, which can
happen early on during gdb start up.
If we run into an error during early gdb start up then we write the
error message to gdb_stderr. However, if we are too early during the
start up then current_ui is NULL, and using the gdb_stderr macro
triggers undefined behaviour.
We try to avoid this using a check 'gdb_stderr == NULL' which was fine
before the recent changes, but now, still triggers undefined behaviour.
A better check is instead 'current_ui == NULL' which is what I use in
this patch.
Triggering this failure is pretty hard, most of the really early errors
are only triggered if pretty basic things are not as expected, for
example, if the default signal handlers are not as expected. Seeing one
of these errors trigger usually means that someone working on gdb has
made an incorrect change. Still, the errors are present in gdb, and
should we ever trigger one it would be nice if gdb didn't crash.
For testing this change I've been applying this patch which adds an
unconditional error into a function called early during gdb start up.
Later in the same function is a real error call which, in some
circumstances could be triggered:
