As it happens we have a board that fails a gdb.base/gcore-relro.exp
test case reproducibly and moreover the case appears to trigger a
kernel bug making the it less than usable. Specifically the board
remains responsive to some extent, however processes do not appear
to be able to successfully complete termination anymore and perhaps
more importantly further gdbserver processes can be started, but they
never reach the stage of listening on the RSP socket.
This change handles timeouts in gdbserver start properly, by throwing
a TCL error exception when gdbserver does not report listening on the
RSP socket in time. This is then caught at the outer level and
reported, and 2 rather than 1 is returned so that the caller may tell
the failure to start gdbserver and other issues apart and act
accordingly (or do nothing).
I thought letting the exception unwind further on might be a good idea
for any test harnesses out there to break outright where a gdbserver
start error is silently ignored right now, however I figured out the
calls to gdbserver-support.exp are buried down too deep in the GDB test
suite for such a change to be made easily. I think returning a distinct
return value is good enough (the API says "non-zero", so 2 is as good as
1) and we can always make the error harder in a later step if required.
With config/gdbserver.exp being used this change remains transparent
to the target board, the return value is passed up by gdb_reload and
the error exception unwinds through gdbserver_gdb_load and is caught
and handled by mi_gdb_target_load. A call to perror is still made,
reporting the timeout, and in the case of mi_gdb_target_load the
procedure returns a value denoting unsuccessful completion. An
unsuccessful completion of gdb_reload is already handled elsewhere.
An alternative gdbserver board configuration can interpret the return
value in its gdb_reload implementation and catch the error in
gdbserver_gdb_load in an attempt to recover a target board that has
gone astray, for example by rebooting the board somehow. This has
proved effective with our failing board, that now completes the
remaining test cases with no further hiccups.

Gdbserver support code uses the global timeout value to determine when
to stop waiting for a gdbserver process being started to respond before
continuing anyway. This timeout is usually as low as 10s and may not
be enough in this context, for example on the first run where the
filesystem cache is cold, even if it is elsewhere.
E.g. I observe this reliably with gdbserver started the first time in
QEMU running in the system emulation mode:

-- notice how the test harness proceeded with the `target remote ...'
command even though gdbserver hasn't completed its startup yet. A
while later when it's finally ready it's too late already. I checked
the timing here and it takes gdbserver roughly 25 seconds to start in
this scenario. Subsequent gdbserver starts in the same test run take
less time and usually complete within 10 seconds although occasionally
`target remote ...' precedes the corresponding `Listening on port...'
message again.
Therefore I have fixed this problem by setting an explicit timeout to
120s on the expect call in question. If this turns out too arbitrary
sometime, then perhaps a separate `gdbserver_timeout' setting might be
due.

Subject: Tidy #include lists
... introduced a build failure on certain x86 GNU/Linux distributions
(reproduced on SuSE 10 and RHES4) due to "struct iovec" not being

explicitly included, but no longer is after the commit above was
applied.

It seems to be working on newer GNU/Linux distros thanks to indirect
inclusion of <sys/uio.h>, but it does not work on some other versions
of the same distros. This is why indirect includes of public APIs
should be avoided if at all possible.
This patch fixes the issue by adding the explicit include back.

The problem here is that if a thread other than gdb's main thread
gets a SIGCHLD (it's an asynchronous signal so the kernel will
essentially pick a random thread) then gdb will hang if it is
in sigsuspend when the SIGCHLD is delivered. The other thread
will see the signal and the sigsuspend won't "wake up".
Guile and libgc should be blocking SIGCHLD in their threads,
but we need to work with Guile 2.0 and libgc 7.4.
The problem first shows up in libgc 7.4 because it is the first
release that enables multiple marker threads by default.

It crashes because frame_arg::val is documented it may contain NULL
(frame_arg::error is then non-NULL) but the code does not handle it.
Another bug is that py_print_single_arg() calls goto out of its TRY_CATCH
which messes up GDB cleanup chain crashing GDB later.
It is probably 7.7 regression (I have not verified it) due to the introduction
of Python frame filters.

This patch is a fix to PR gdb/17235. The bug is about an unused
variable that got declared and set during one of the parsing phases of
an SDT probe's argument. I took the opportunity to rewrite some of the
code to improve the parsing. The bug was actually a thinko, because
what I wanted to do in the code was to discard the number on the string
being parsed.
During this portion, the code identifies that it is dealing with an
expression that begins with a sign ('+', '-' or '~'). This means that
the expression could be:
- a numeric literal (e.g., '+5')
- a register displacement (e.g., '-4(%rsp)')
- a subexpression (e.g., '-(2*3)')
So, after saving the sign and moving forward 1 char, now the code needs
to know if there is a digit followed by a register displacement prefix
operand (e.g., '(' on x86_64). If yes, then it is a register
operation. If not, then it will be handled recursively, and the code
will later apply the requested operation on the result (either a '+', a
'-' or a '~').
With the bug, the code was correctly discarding the digit (though using
strtol unnecessarily), but it wasn't properly dealing with
subexpressions when the register indirection prefix was '(', like on
x86_64. This patch also fixes this bug, and includes a testcase. It
passes on x86_64 Fedora 20.

Historically the Linux x86 watchpoint code did not cope with multi-
threaded processes and LWP IDs were passed to it wrapped as PIDs.
Not all entry points were converted when the Linux x86 watchpoint
code was made multi-thread-aware, so a handler was left in place to
cope with wrapped LWPs. Since then all such entry points have been
converted to pass regular LWPs and the handler is now redundant.
This commit removes the handler and adds assertions to ensure no

The idea was that we'd just fallback to calling value_field_bitfield,
which handles unavailable values (in unpack_value_bits_as_long_1) so
should be able to handle optimized out values too. Alas, it doesn't.
This is currently a bit too messy. Instead of teaching
unpack_value_bits_as_long_1 about optimized out bits, let's bite the
bullet and teach the value code to handle partially optimized out
bitfield, by having it unpack a bitfield and then propagate the range
metadata. Turns out the resulting code looks simpler and clearer.

PTRACE_PEEKUSER can return -1, which is usually used to determine whether
a system call has reported an error, so errno must be used alone to
determine whether an error occurred. However errno isn't modified by a
successful system call so it must be reset to a known value (0) before the
syscall call.

This PR came from a Red Hat bug that was filed recently. I checked and
it still exists on HEAD, so here's a proposed fix. Although this is
marked as a Python backend bug, this is really about the completion
mechanism used by GDB. Since this code reminds me of my first attempt
to make a good noodle, it took me quite some time to fix it in a
non-intrusive way.
The problem is triggered when one registers a completion method inside a
class in a Python script, rather than registering the command using a
completer class directly. For example, consider the following script:
class MyFirstCommand(gdb.Command):
def __init__(self):
gdb.Command.__init__(self,'myfirstcommand',gdb.COMMAND_USER,gdb.COMPLETE_FILENAME)
def invoke(self,argument,from_tty):
raise gdb.GdbError('not implemented')
class MySecondCommand(gdb.Command):
def __init__(self):
gdb.Command.__init__(self,'mysecondcommand',gdb.COMMAND_USER)
def invoke(self,argument,from_tty):
raise gdb.GdbError('not implemented')
def complete(self,text,word):
return gdb.COMPLETE_FILENAME
MyFirstCommand ()
MySecondCommand ()
When one loads this into GDB and tries to complete filenames for both
myfirstcommand and mysecondcommand, she gets:
(gdb) myfirstcommand /hom<TAB>
(gdb) myfirstcommand /home/
^
...
(gdb) mysecondcommand /hom<TAB>
(gdb) mysecondcommand /home
^
(The "^" marks the final position of the cursor after the TAB).
So we see that myfirstcommand honors the COMPLETE_FILENAME class (as
specified in the command creation), but mysecondcommand does not. After
some investigation, I found that the problem lies with the set of word
break characters that is used for each case. The set should be the same
for both commands, but it is not.
During the process of deciding which type of completion should be used,
the code in gdb/completer.c:complete_line_internal analyses the command
that requested the completion and tries to determine the type of
completion wanted by checking which completion function will be called
(e.g., filename_completer for filenames, location_completer for
locations, etc.).
This all works fine for myfirstcommand, because immediately after the
command registration the Python backend already sets its completion
function to filename_completer (which then causes the
complete_line_internal function to choose the right set of word break
chars). However, for mysecondcommand, this decision is postponed to
when the completer function is evaluated, and the Python backend uses an
internal completer (called cmdpy_completer). complete_line_internal
doesn't know about this internal completer, and can't choose the right
set of word break chars in time, which then leads to a bad decision when
completing the "/hom" word.
So, after a few attempts, I decided to create another callback in
"struct cmd_list_element" that will be responsible for handling the case
when there is an unknown completer function for complete_line_internal
to work with. So far, only the Python backend uses this callback, and
only when the user provides a completer method instead of registering
the command directly with a completer class. I think this is the best
option because it not very intrusive (all the other commands will still
work normally), but especially because the whole completion code is so
messy that it would be hard to fix this without having to redesign
things.
I have regtested this on Fedora 18 x86_64, without regressions. I also
included a testcase.

This commit renames nine files that contain code used by both 32- and

for both 32- and 64-bit Intel lives in files called "x86-*".
This commit only renames OS-independent files. The Linux ports of

This commit replaces the hacky "exception" system in gdbserver with
the exceptions and cleanups subsystem from GDB.
Only the catch/cleanup code in what was "main" has been updated to
use the new system. Other parts of gdbserver can now be converted
to use TRY_CATCH and cleanups on an as-needed basis.
A side-effect of this commit is that some error messages will change
slightly, and in cases with multiple errors the error messages will
be printed in a different order.

Various warnings are emitted during startup and option-parsing using
fprintf_unfiltered. One warning is prefixed with the command name,
the others are not. This commit replaces these hardwired warnings

gdb/ChangeLog:

go32_create_inferior invokes a hardwired fprintf/exit error handler
if v2loadimage fails. I could find no reason for this other than that
the block seems to have been copy-and-pasted from v2loadimage's
manpage. This commit replaces the hardwired handler with a call to
error.
gdb/ChangeLog:
* go32-nat.c (go32_create_inferior): Replace a fprintf/
exit pair with a call to error. Wrap the message with _().
If the requested interpreter cannot be set captured_main reports the
error with a hardwired fprintf/exit pair. A fprintf/exit pair on the
previous line was replaced with a call to error in March 2003
(https://sourceware.org/ml/gdb-patches/2003-03/msg00444.html) but I
found no documentation as to why this particular hardwired handler
was left untouched. I was also unable to come up with a situation
where error would not be suitable, so I have replaced it with a call
to error.
gdb/ChangeLog:
* main.c (captured_main): Replace a fprintf/exit
pair with a call to error. Wrap the message with _().
tui_initialize_io contains a pair of hardwired fprintf/exit error
handlers. I was unable to find any documentation as to why they're
hardwired (the code appeared in a monolithic block back in 2001:
https://sourceware.org/ml/gdb-patches/2001-07/msg00490.html) and I
was also unable to come up with a situation where error would not
be suitable, so I have replaced both handlers with calls to error.
gdb/ChangeLog:
* tui/tui-io.c (tui_initialize_io): Replace two fprintf/exit
pairs with calls to error. Wrap the message with _().
warning will crash if called before the first call to set_width. This
commit makes the warning usable from the moment gdb_stderr is set up.
gdb/ChangeLog:
* utils.c (vwarning): Protect calls to target_terminal_ours
and wrap_here.
error (and other exception-throwing functions) are callable from the
first line of captured_main, but the exception printing code will
crash if called before the first call to set_width. This commit makes
the exception printing code usable from the moment gdb_stderr is set
up.
gdb/ChangeLog:
* exceptions.c (print_flush): Protect calls to
target_terminal_ours and wrap_here.
internal_vproblem can be called (via malloc_failure) from almost the
first line of captured_main, but it will crash if called before the
first call to set_width. This commit makes internal_vproblem work
at any time.
There are two parts to this. If called before gdb_stderr is set up,
internal_vproblem will fall back to printing the message on regular
stderr and aborting. If called after gdb_stderr is set up but before
filtered printing is set up, internal_vproblem will operate as usual
except that it can not query whether to quit and/or dump core so it
defaults to doing both.
gdb/ChangeLog:
* utils.h (filtered_printing_initialized): New declaration.
* utils.c (abort_with_message): New function.
(internal_vproblem): Use abort_with_message for first level
recursive internal problems, and if gdb_stderr is not set up.
Protect calls to target_terminal_ours, begin_line and query.
clang was using eax to construct %0 here:
asm ("mov %%eax, 0(%0)\n\t"
"mov %%ebx, 4(%0)\n\t"
"mov %%ecx, 8(%0)\n\t"
"mov %%edx, 12(%0)\n\t"
"mov %%esi, 16(%0)\n\t"
"mov %%edi, 20(%0)\n\t"
: /* no output operands */
: "r" (data)
: "eax", "ebx", "ecx", "edx", "esi", "edi");
which caused amd64-word.exp (and others similarly) to fail.
It's a perfectly legit thing for clang to do given the available data.
The patch fixes this by marking the registers as live from the
time of the preceding breakpoint.
gdb/testsuite/ChangeLog:
* gdb.arch/amd64-pseudo.c (main): Rewrite to better specify when
eax,etc. are live with values set by gdb and thus the compiler can't
use them.
* gdb.arch/i386-pseudo.c (main): Ditto.
This commit removes the now-unused fatal function and prototype.
gdb/gdbserver/ChangeLog:
* utils.h (fatal): Remove declaration.
* utils.c (fatal): Remove function.
This commit converts four calls to fatal into calls to
perror_with_name. perror_with_name calls error, which
in IPA terminates with exit (1) rather than longjmp, so
there is no functional change here.
gdb/gdbserver/ChangeLog:
* tracepoint.c (gdb_agent_init): Replace fatal with
perror_with_name.
(initialize_tracepoint): Likewise.
This commit converts a call to fatal in remote_prepare with a call to
error. remote_prepare is called precisely once, from main, at a point
where jumping to toplevel will call exit (1), so error and fatal are
functionally equivalent at this point. Note that remote_prepare calls
perror_with_name (which calls error) so callers of remote_prepare must
already handle the fact that it may exit via longjmp.
gdb/gdbserver/ChangeLog:
* remote-utils.c (remote_prepare): Replace fatal with error.
This commit downgrades a fatal error to a warning in linux_async.
linux_async is called from two different places in gdbserver:
Via target_async from handle_accept_event. The argument
is always zero, so the warning will never be printed here.
Via start_non_stop from handle_general_set. This prints
its own error message to stderr on failure, which will
be preceded by the warning if it is emitted.
gdb/gdbserver/ChangeLog:
* linux-low.c (linux_async): Replace fatal with warning.
Tidy up and return.
(linux_start_non_stop): Return -1 if linux_async failed.
This commit converts if..fatal checks in both i386_dr_low_set_addr
implementations to gdb_asserts. It's not obvious from the context,
but the conditional in both cases is changed to match the equivalent
conditional in the i386_dr_low_get_addr implementations. Nothing
fundamental has changed because DR_FIRSTADDR is zero. This commit
also removes a vague comment in Linux i386_dr_low_get_addr. I could
have reworded the comment (and replicated it three times for the other
identical assertions) but I think the existence of specific functions
for the status and control registers makes it fairly obvious what is
going on.
gdb/gdbserver/ChangeLog:
* linux-x86-low.c (i386_dr_low_set_addr): Replace check with
gdb_assert.
(i386_dr_low_get_addr): Remove vague comment.
* win32-i386-low.c (i386_dr_low_set_addr): Replace check with
gdb_assert.
Hi,
This patch is to handle a software watchpoint case that program returns
to caller's epilogue, and it causes the fail in thumb mode,
finish^M
Run till exit from #0 func () at gdb/testsuite/gdb.base/watchpoint-cond-gone.c:26^M
0x000001f6 in jumper ()^M
(gdb) FAIL: gdb.base/watchpoint-cond-gone.exp: Catch the no longer valid watchpoint
In the test, jumper calls func, and programs returns from func to
jumper's epilogue, IOW, the branch instruction is the last instruction
of jumper's function body.
jumper:
.....
0x000001f2 <+10>: bl 0x200 [1] <---- indirect call to func
0x000001f6 <+14>: mov sp, r7 [2] <---- start of the epilogue
0x000001f8 <+16>: add sp, #8
0x000001fa <+18>: pop {r7}
0x000001fc <+20>: pop {r0}
0x000001fe <+22>: bx r0
When the inferior returns from func back to jumper, it is expected
that an expression of a software watchpoint becomes out-of-scope.
GDB validates the expression by checking the corresponding frame,
but this check is guarded by gdbarch_in_function_epilogue_p. See
breakpoint.c:watchpoint_check.
It doesn't work in this case, because program returns from func's
epilogue back to jumper's epilogue [2], GDB thinks the program is
still within the epilogue, but in fact it goes to a different one.
When PC points at [2], the sp-restore instruction is to be
executed, so the stack frame isn't destroyed yet and we can still
use the frame mechanism reliably.
Note that when PC points to the first instruction of restoring SP,
it is part of epilogue, but we still return zero. When goes to
the next instruction, the backward scan will still match the
epilogue sequence correctly. The reason for doing this is to
handle the "return-to-epilogue" case.
What this patch does is to restrict the epilogue matching that let
GDB think the first SP restore instruction isn't part of the epilogue,
and fall back to use frame mechanism. We set 'found_stack_adjust'
zero before backward scan, and we've done this for arm mode
counterpart (arm_in_function_epilogue_p) too.
The patch is tested in arm-none-eabi and arm-none-linux-gnueabi with
various multilibs. OK to apply?

Hi,
dwarf_decode_lines is called in two functions,
dwarf2_build_include_psymtabs and handle_DW_AT_stmt_list, in which, 1
is passed to argument 'want_line_info' and 'want_line_info' is a
conditional variable in dwarf_decode_lines. We can simplify it by
removing 'want_line_info' and propagating the constant 1 into
dwarf_decode_lines. This is what this patch does. This patch also
remove one line comment about WANT_LINE_INFO in
handle_DW_AT_stmt_list, as handle_DW_AT_stmt_list doesn't have such
argument.
gdb:
2014-08-28 Yao Qi <yao@codesourcery.com>
* dwarf2read.c (dwarf_decode_lines): Update declaration.
(handle_DW_AT_stmt_list): Remove comment about WANT_LINE_INFO.

Callers update.
The TUI terminal state becomes corrupted (e.g. key sequences such as
Alt_F and Alt_B no longer work) when one attaches to an inferior process
(via "run" or "attach") from within TUI. This terminal corruption
remains until you switch out of TUI mode.
This happens because the terminal state is not properly saved when
switching to and out from TUI mode. Although the functions tui_enable()
and tui_disable() both call the function target_terminal_save_ours() to
save the terminal state, this function is a no-op unless GDB has already
attached to an inferior process. This is because only the "native"
target has a useful implementation of target_terminal_save_ours()
(namely child_terminal_save_ours()) and we only have the "native" target
in our target vector if GDB has already attached to an inferior process.
So without an inferior process, switching to and from TUI mode does not
actually save the terminal state. Therefore when you attach to an
inferior process from within TUI mode, the proper terminal state is not
restored (after swapping from the inferior's terminal back to the GDB
terminal).
To fix this we just have to ensure that the terminal state is always
being properly saved when switching from and to TUI mode. To achieve
this, this patch removes the polymorphic function
target_terminal_save_ours() and replaces it with a regular function
gdb_save_tty_state() that always saves the terminal state.
Tested on x86_64-unknown-linux-gnu by running "make check", no new
regressions.

* target.h (struct target_ops::to_terminal_save_ours): Remove
declaration.

I read comment of scan_partial_symbols about NEED_PC and how *LOWPC
and *HIGHPC are updated:
DW_AT_ranges). If NEED_PC is set, then this function will set
*LOWPC and *HIGHPC to the lowest and highest PC values found in CU
and record the covered ranges in the addrmap.
NEED_PC is only used in the callee of scan_partial_symbols,
add_partial_subprogram,
if (pdi->tag == DW_TAG_subprogram)
{
if (pdi->has_pc_info)
{
if (pdi->lowpc < *lowpc)
*lowpc = pdi->lowpc;
if (pdi->highpc > *highpc)
*highpc = pdi->highpc;
if (need_pc)
*LOWPC and *HIGHPC is updated regardless of NEED_PC. When NEED_PC is
true, addrmap is updated. It would be clear to rename NEED_PC to
SET_ADDRMAP. That is what this patch does. Beside this, this patch
also adjust comments in related functions.

When GDB uses recent version of babeltrace, such as 1.2.x, we'll see
such error emitted from babeltrace library,
(gdb) target ctf .../gdb/testsuite/gdb.trace/actions.ctf
[error] Invalid CTF stream: content size is smaller than packet headers.
[error] Stream index creation error.
[error] Open file stream error.
The problem can be reproduce out of GDB too, using babeltrace,
$ babeltrace ./fake-packet.ctf/
[error] Invalid CTF stream: content size is smaller than packet headers.
[error] Stream index creation error.
[error] Open file stream error.
Recent babeltrace library becomes more strict on CTF, and complains
about one "faked packet" GDB adds, when saving trace data in ctf
format from GDB. babeltrace 1.1.0 has a bug that it can't read trace
data smaller than a certain size (see https://bugs.lttng.org/issues/450).
We workaround it in GDB to append some meaningless data in a faked
packet to make sure trace file is large enough (see ctf.c:ctf_end).
The babeltrace issue was fixed in 1.1.1 release. However, babeltrace
recent release (since 1.1.2) starts to complain about such faked
packet. Here is a table shows that whether faked packet or no faked
packet is "supported" by various babeltrace releases,
faked packet no faked packet
1.1.0 Yes No
1.1.1 Yes Yes
1.1.2 No Yes
1.2.0 No Yes
We decide to get rid of this workaround in GDB, and people can build GDB
with libbabeltrace >= 1.1.1. In this way, both configure and ctf.c is
simpler.
Run gdb.trace/* tests in the following combinations:

This TODO has been stale for over 2 years. In bd5635a1 (1991), we
already see the comment, when we only had a bare attach_command:
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
/*

* program to be debugged was started on this tty and it wants
* the tty in some state other than what we want. If it's running

* This only needs to be done if we are attaching to a process.
*/
/*

*/
void
attach_command (args, from_tty)
char *args;
int from_tty;
{
target_attach (args, from_tty);
}
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Later in b5a3d2aa (1992) target_terminal_init, etc. calls are added to
attach_command, and in 7e97eb28 (1992) we see:
+ /* If we attached to the process, we might or might not be sharing
+ a terminal. Avoid printing error msg if we are unable to set our
+ terminal's process group to his process group ID. */
+ if (!attach_flag) {

Checking whether the gcore command is included in the GDB build as
proxy for checking whether core dumping is supported by the target is
useless, as gcore.o has been in COMMON_OBS since git 9b4eba8e:

IOW, the command is always included in the build.

Consider an array described in the debugging information as being
a typedef of an array type for which there is a DW_AT_data_location
attribute. Trying to print the value of that array currently yields
incorrect element values. For instance:
(gdb) print foo.three_tdef
$1 = (6293760, 0, 6293772)
The problem occurs because we check for the data_location attribute
only on the typedef type, whereas we should be checking for the
typedef's target type. As a result, GDB erroneously thinks that
there is no data_location, and therefore starts reading the array's
content from the address of the descriptor instead of the data_location

This fixes PR symtab/14604, PR symtab/14605, and Jan's test at

* value.c (allocate_optimized_out_value): Don't mark value as
non-lazy.
The PRs are about variables described by the DWARF as being split over
multiple registers using DWARF piece information, but some of those
registers being marked as optimised out (not saved) by a later frame.
GDB currently incorrectly mishandles these partially-optimized-out
values.
Even though we can usually tell from the debug info whether a local or
global is optimized out, handling the case of a local living in a
register that was not saved in a frame requires fetching the variable.
GDB also needs to fetch a value to tell whether parts of it are
"<unavailable>". Given this, it's not worth it to try to avoid
fetching lazy optimized-out values based on debug info alone.
So this patch makes GDB track which chunks of a value's contents are
optimized out like it tracks <unavailable> contents. That is, it
makes value->optimized_out be a bit range vector instead of a boolean,
and removes the struct lval_funcs check_validity and check_any_valid
hooks.
Unlike Andrew's series which this is based on (at
https://sourceware.org/ml/gdb-patches/2013-08/msg00300.html, note some
pieces have gone in since), this doesn't merge optimized out and
unavailable contents validity/availability behind a single interface,
nor does it merge the bit range vectors themselves (at least yet).
While it may be desirable to have a single entry point that returns
existence of contents irrespective of what may make them
invalid/unavailable, several places want to treat optimized out /
unavailable / etc. differently, so each spot that potentially could
use it will need to be careful considered on case-by-case basis, and
best done as a separate change.
This fixes Jan's test, because value_available_contents_eq wasn't
considering optimized out value contents. It does now, and because of
that it's been renamed to value_contents_eq.
A new intro comment is added to value.h describing "<optimized out>",
"<not saved>" and "<unavailable>" values.

In gdb.base/watchpoint-hw-hit-once.exp, test scans source and set
breakpoint on the line having "break-at-exit",
gdb_breakpoint [gdb_get_line_number "break-at-exit"]
However, in watchpoint-hw-hit-once.c, there are two lines having
this key word:
dummy = 1; /* Stub to catch break-at-exit after WATCHEE has been hit. */
dummy = 2; /* break-at-exit */
so the test sets breakpoint on the first one, while I think it is
expected to set breakpoint on the second one, as far as I can tell
from the comments in watchpoint-hw-hit-once.c:
/* Stub lines are present as no breakpoints/watchpoint gets hit if current PC
already stays on the line PC while entering "step"/"continue". */
This patch is to change the source matching pattern so that test
can correctly set breakpoint on the right line. This patch fixes

The hard-VFP ABI was supported by GDB overal, done by this patch
https://sourceware.org/ml/gdb-patches/2009-07/msg00686.html but
"vectors and complex types are not currently supported", mentioned in
the patch. As a result, these tests fail.
This patch is to support _Complex types in hard-VFP abi. As specified
in "7.1.1, Procedure Call Standard for the ARM Arch", the layout of
_Complex types is a struct, which is identical to the layout on amd64,
so I copy Mark's comments to amd64 support.

This introduces common-debug.h. This holds the functions debug_printf
and debug_vprintf, two functions that the common code can use to print
debugging messages. Clients of the common code are expected to
implement debug_vprintf; a debug_vprintf function is written from
scratch for GDB, and gdbserver's existing debug_printf is repurposed
as debug_vprintf.
common/agent.c is changed to use debug_vprintf rather than
defining the macro DEBUG_AGENT depending on GDBSERVER.
nat/i386-dregs.c is changed to use the externally-implemented
debug_printf, rather than defining it itself.

The testcase generates an assembly file where a second DW_AT_upper_bound
attribute gets generated in the array range. This was definitely
unintentional, and I only noticed this after pushing the testcase,

This patch fixes it.
gdb/testsuite/ChangeLog:
* gdb.dwarf2/data-loc.exp: Remove second DW_AT_upper bound
attribute in array range.
This testcase allows us to test the proper processing of both
DW_AT_data_location and DW_OP_push_object_address using a hand-crafted
testcase duplicating how we expect the Ada compiler to represent
unbounded arrays.
gdb/testsuite/ChangeLog:
* gdb.dwarf2/data-loc.c, gdb.dwarf2/data-loc.exp: New files.
Consider an Ada array type where the DWARF debugging info for
at least one of the bounds involves an expression containing
a DW_OP_push_object_address operation. Trying to "ptype" that
type currently yields:
(gdb) ptype foo.array_type
type = array (Location address is not set.
This patch improves ada-typeprint by adding handling of the situation
where an array range type has dynamic bounds. In that case, it prints
the array bounds using Ada's typical syntax for unbounded ranges "<>":
(gdb) ptype array_type
type = array (<>) of integer

Now that the OP_VAR_VALUE section of this function has been reorganized
a bit, we can fall-back on standard evaluation when static fixing is
not required. This patch does that, but being exclusive about when
static fixing has to be used, rather than doing it all the time when
noside is EVAL_AVOID_SIDE_EFFECTS.
This will pave the way for later when we want to evaluate entities
that have no GNAT encodings related to them but dynamic properties
instead. In that case, we expect the standard evaluation to resolve
those dynamic properties for us, even in no-side-effect mode.
gdb/ChangeLog:
* ada-lang.c (ada_evaluate_subexp) <OP_VAR_VALUE>:
When noside is EVAL_AVOID_SIDE_EFFECTS, only return a statically
fixed value for records and unions for which some GNAT encodings
are present.
The OP_VAR_VALUE branch in ada_evaluate_subexp is written with
multiple "if ... else if ... else if ... else ..." block. But
in practice, these blocks all either goto out of that block of
code, or return.
This patch rewrites this code slightly by replacing the "else if"-s
by simple "if"s. This should better reflect the ideal processing
where we try to do a standard eval whenever possible, and only
do something else when the standard eval does not work. On a pratical
level, this patch makes it easier to fall through to the default
processing when none of the special situations are detected, thus
making it easier to add more handlers of those special situations;
or to remove them as they no longer become necessary!

OFFSET and LEN is zero, and it was used in avr-tdep.c and kod.c. Then,
Daniel added target_read_object_alloc and avr-tdep.c switches to use that
in patch https://sourceware.org/ml/gdb-patches/2006-07/msg00009.html
From then on, GDB on longer queries the buffer size, so the code
returning packet size in remote_xfer_partial became dead.
PR 17060 is duplicated of PR 9053, so I mention the latter in the
ChangeLog entry. Rebuild GDB with this patch. OK to apply?
I'll mark PR 17060 as duplicated once the patch is applied.

* remote.c (remote_xfer_partial): Remove dead code.
I find some gdb.python tests fail on arm-none-eabi target, because the
tests assume that memory on address 0x is inaccessible. Some tests
(in gdb.base) are aware of this, so do a "x 0" check first. However,
the code is copy-n-paste.
This patch is to move the "x 0" check to a procedure in lib/gdb.exp,
and get needed tests call it. The original code matches pattern
"0x0:\[ \t\]*Error accessing memory address 0x0\r\n$gdb_prompt $", but
I remove it from the new proc is_address_zero_readable, because GDB
doesn't emit such message any more.

Also rewrite the 'supply_regset' method, making it platform
independent. To avoid code duplication, move the logic for both to a
register map in regcache_map_entry format.
In order to provide 'collect_regset' support, the generic function
regcache_collect_regset is exploited. Since this requires writing
appropriate register maps, these can be used for supply_regset as
well.
Rather than supplying own supply/collect functions, use the generic
functions regcache_supply_regset and regcache_collect_regset instead.
The register maps are rewritten accordingly and become much shorter
(and better readable) than before.
These functions are intended to suit all targets that don't require too
special logic in their regset supply/collect methods. Having such
generic functions helps reducing target-specific complexity.
The regset structure's 'descr' field is intended to represent some
kind of "register map". Thus, before making more use of it, this
change renames it to 'regmap' and adjusts the comment appropriately.

This commit moves the inclusion of errno.h to common-defs.h and
removes all other inclusions. Note that prior to this commit
server.h included errno.h protected by "#ifdef HAVE_ERRNO_H".
This protection was added with the Windows CE port, which is
currently broken. Since no other platform needs this, I have
removed the protection and the configury to support it.

I saw this gem of not so legible code in solib-svr4.c (scan_dyntag):
if (dyn_tag == dyntag)
and thought it deserved a small rename.
This just renames variables to be a bit more clear for those who read the
code. I also constified the parameter because, why not. The same was
done in scan_dyntag_auxv as well.
Tested only by rebuilding, since the change was done mechanically.
