PASS: gdb.ada/mi_catch_ex.exp: continue until CE caught by all-exceptions catchpoint
The problem is that:
- MI prints the breakpoint hit twice: once on the MI stream;
another time on the console stream.
- After printing the Ada catchpoint hit, gdb selects a non-current
frame, from within the catchpoint's print_it routine.
So the second time the breakpoint is printed, the selected frame is no
longer the current frame, and then evaluating e.full_name in
ada_exception_name_addr fails.
This commit fixes the problem and enhances the gdb.ada/mi_catch_ex.exp
test to make sure the catchpoint hit is printed correctly on the
console stream too.

Similarly to 5068630ad3
(gdb.python/py-events.exp and normal_stop observers ordering) [1],
this commit makes the gdb.python/py-mi-events.exp test not rely on
order in which MI and Python observers run, or even on where each
observer sends its output to.
This shows up as a problem when testing with MI running as a separate
terminal, for example, where Python event output and MI output go to
different channels, even. But in any case, relying on the order in
which observers run is always going to be fragile.
The fix is to save the string output in the handlers in some variables
and then having MI print them explicitly, instead of printing them
directly from the Python events.
Tested on x86_64 Fedora 23.

This patch fixes a GDBserver crash when one thread is stepping over

to the exit, but GDBserver doesn't clean up the state of step-over,
so in the wait next time, GDBserver will wait on step_over_bkpt,
which is already exited, and GDBserver crashes because
'requested_child' is NULL. See gdbserver logs below,

Eclipse CDT now supports enabling execution recording using two methods
(full and btrace) and both formats for btrace (bts and pt). In the
event that recording is enabled behind the back of the GUI (by the user
on the command line, or a script), we need to know which method/format
are being used, so it can be correctly reflected in the interface. This
patch adds this information to the =record-started async record.
Before:
=record-started,thread-group="i1"
After:
=record-started,thread-group="i1",method="btrace",format="bts"
=record-started,thread-group="i1",method="btrace",format="pt"

I've traced the main source of the problem to pieced_value_funcs.coerce_ref not being
implemented. Since gdb always assumes references are implemented as pointers, this
causes it to think that it's dealing with a NULL pointer, thus breaking any operations
involving synthetic references.
What I did here was implementing pieced_value_funcs.coerce_ref using some of the synthetic
pointer handling code from indirect_pieced_value, as Pedro suggested. I also made a few
adjustments to the reference printing code so that it correctly shows either the address
of the referenced value or (if it's non-addressable) the "<synthetic pointer>" string.
I also wrote some unit tests based on Dwarf::assemble; these took a while to make
because in most cases I needed a synthetic reference to a physical variable. Additionally,
I started working on a unit test for classes that have a vtable, but ran into a few issues
so that'll probably go in a future patch. One thing that should definitely be fixed is that
proc function_range (called for MACRO_AT_func) will always try to compile/link using gcc
with the default options instead of g++, thus breaking C++ compilations that require e.g. libstdc++.

This patch moves conditional tests that were done in ftrace.exp to
trace-condition.exp.
Note that emit_ref is now tested by the anarg local variable there is no
need to test the register directly.
All emit calls have been tested using asserts before / after the move, to
ensure that the tests cover the same functions.
Note that these function were not covered before and are still not:
emit_gt_goto, emit_lt_goto, emit_pop, emit_unsigned_less.
gdb/testsuite/ChangeLog:
* gdb.trace/ftrace.exp (test_ftrace_condition): Remove.
Move condition tests...
* gdb.trace/trace-condition.exp: Here.
In trace-condition.exp, tests are done by doing a conditional tracepoint
and validating that the trace contains all the frames that could be
collected if that condition is true.
E.g. test_tracepoints $trace_command "21 + 21 == 42" 10
This will always return true and collect the 10 frames possible to collect
with the test program.
However, if the condition evaluation is broken such that the condition is
unconditional we will not notice this problem.
This patch adds counter-cases to such conditions like so:
$trace_command "21 + 11 == 42" 0
This way such a problem would be noticed.

Assume that we have a C program like this:
struct foo_type
{
int var;
} foo;
struct foo_type *foo_ptr = &foo;
int
main ()
{
return foo_ptr->var;
}
Then GDB should be able to evaluate the following, however, it currently
does not:
(gdb) start
...
(gdb) whatis &(foo_ptr->var)
Attempt to take address of value not located in memory.
The problem is that in EVAL_AVOID_SIDE_EFFECTS mode,
eval.c:evaluate_subexp_standard always returns a not_lval value as the
result for a STRUCTOP_PTR operation. As a consequence, the rest of
the code believes that one cannot take the address of the returned
value.
This patch fixes STRUCTOP_PTR handling so that the VALUE_LVAL
attribute for the returned value is properly initialized. After this
change, the above session becomes:
(gdb) start
...
(gdb) whatis &(foo_ptr->var)
type = int *
This commit is largely the same as commit 2520f728b7 (Forward

This patch fixes PR python/17386.
The bug is that gdb.Value does not implement the Python __index__
method. This method is needed to convert a Python object to an index
and is used by various operations in Python, such as indexing an
array.
The fix is to implement the nb_index method for gdb.Value.
nb_index was added in Python 2.5. I don't have a good way to test
Python 2.4, but I made an attempt to accomodate it.
I chose to use valpy_long in all cases because this simplifies porting
to Python 3, and because there didn't seem to be any harm.

When GDB attaches to a process, it looks at the /proc/PID/task/ dir
for all clone threads of that process, and attaches to each of them.
Usually, if there is more than one clone thread, it means the program
is multi threaded and linked with pthreads. Thus when GDB soon after
attaching finds and loads a libthread_db matching the process, it'll
add a thread to the thread list for each of the initially found
lower-level LWPs.
If, however, GDB fails to find/load a matching libthread_db, nothing
is adding the LWPs to the thread list. And because of that, "detach"
hits an internal error:

This fixes PR python/19438 and PR python/18393. Both bugs are about
invoking dir() on some Python object implemented by gdb, and getting a
crash.
The crash happens because the dictionary field of these objects was
not initialized. Apparently what happens is that this field can be
lazily initialized by Python when assigning to an attribute; and it
can also be handled ok when using dir() but without __dict__ defined;
but gdb defines __dict__ because this isn't supplied automatically by
Python.
The docs on this seem rather sparse, but this patch works ok.
An alternative might be to lazily create the dictionary in
gdb_py_generic_dict, but I went with this approach because it seemed
more straightforward.

Add a new test for PR 20039. The test spawns new threads, then tries to
interrupt, continue, and interrupt again. This use case was fixed by
commit 5fe966540d in master, but gdb 7.11
is affected (so if you try it on the gdb-7.11-branch right now, the test
will fail).
New in v2, the test now handles mi-async on mode properly. The failure
was specific to mi-async off, but I don't think it's bad to test the
same thing under async on mode. I added a little hack when running in
async mode to work around bug 20045.
I also removed one continue/interrupt pair, as a single one was enough to
trigger the problem.

When doing -exec-run on a freshly started GDB, the only target on the
target stack at the time the dummy one. When mi_async_p is called to
know whether the run should be async, it queries whether the current
target (dummy) supports async, and the answer is no. The fix is to make
the code query the target that will be used for the run, which is not
necessarily the current target.
No regressions in the gdb.mi directory using the unix, native-gdbserver
and native-extended-gdbserver boards. The test doesn't pass when
forcing maint set target-async off, obviously, since it makes mi-async
have no effect. It doesn't seem like other tests are checking for that
eventuality, so I didn't in the new test.

I wanted to unit test the Rust lexer, so I added a simple unit testing
command to gdb.
The intent is that self tests will only be compiled into gdb in
development mode. In release mode they simply won't exist. So, this
exposes $development to C code as GDB_SELF_TEST.
In development mode, test functions are registered with the self test
module. A test function is just a function that does some checks, and
throws an exception on failure.
Then this adds a new "maint selftest" command which invokes the test
functions, and a new dejagnu test case that invokes it.

batch-preserve-term-settings.exp fails if the shell prompt isn't $. It
is # in our testing env. In fact, the shell prompt can be anything.
The perfect solution would be "set_board_info shell_prompt" in the
host board file, and use board_info shell_prompt in
batch-preserve-term-settings.exp. This is a little bit overkill to
me, and we still need to figure out the different prompts on different
shells. I also tried to start shell with the prompt preset, but there is
not unique way to set shell prompt in different shells, so I give up.
It is reasonably simple to match either $ or # for the shell prompt, and

This test currently uses [is_remote target] to check if the test is
supported. This is not quite correct, as the limitation is actually
that it requires support for "running", ruling out stub-like targets.
Therefore, it should check for use_gdb_stub.
This has no visible effect right now, but it will once we make the
native-gdbserver board non-dejagnu-remote.
gdb/testsuite/ChangeLog:
* gdb.base/solib-display.exp: Check for [use_gdb_stub] instead
of [is_remote target],
This patch introduces the use_gdb_stub procedure, which allows getting
the right value of the use_gdb_stub variable/property in any all
situations.
When calling it before the $use_gdb_stub global variable has been set,
it will return the value of the use_gdb_stub property from the board
file. This happens when tests want to bail out early (even before gdb
has been started) when the current test setup is a stub.
Otherwise, it returns the value of the $use_gdb_stub global.
It's possible for these two to differ when a test file overrides the
value of the global.

This test seems to work with both native-gdbserver and
native-extended-gdbserver, so I removed the remote check.
When running with native-gdbserver (a stub-like target), detach makes
gdbserver stop and gdb disconnect. runto_main just spawns a brand new
gdbserver. So it tests the exact same thing twice. It doesn't hurt
though.
With native-extended-gdbserver, the test is probably a bit more useful
(and similar to native). It tests running/detaching twice using the
same gdb/gdbserver instances, since with extended-remote, you can
detach/attach/run all you want, unlike with remote.
gdb/testsuite/ChangeLog:
* gdb.base/detach.exp: Remove is_remote check.
The comment says that we can't use runto_main here becore it doesn't
know how to handle annotation. Instead, the test puts a breakpoint at
main and calls run by hand. Therefore, it can't work with stub targets,
since they can't "run". The check should be then changed to check the
use_gdb_stub variable instead of [is_remote target].
But as an alternative, we can just use runto_main and enable annotations
after, since the "run to main" part is not really part of what we want
to test.
I also removed the "set test..." line that is unused.

* gdb.base/annota-input-while-running.exp: Don't check for

This patch adds a test for tracepoints enabling/disabling, which
didn't work properly for fast tracepoints on big endian systems.
gdb/testsuite/ChangeLog:
* gdb.trace/trace-enable-disable.exp: New file.
* gdb.trace/trace-enable-disable.c: New file.
Some fast tracepoints tests make sure that the in-process agent library
is properly loaded, by searching for the library name in "info
sharedlibrary".
Originally, it would search for the full path. Since patch "Make ftrace
tests work with remote targets" [1], the "runtime" location of the IPA,
in the standard output directory, is not the same as the original
location, in the gdbserver build directory. Therefore, the patch
changed the checks:
gdb_test "info sharedlibrary" ".*${libipa}.*" "IPA loaded"
to
gdb_test "info sharedlibrary" ".*[file tail ${libipa}].*" "IPA loaded"
so that only the "libinproctrace.so" part would be searched for.
Antoine (in CC) pointed out that I missed some, so I have to update
them. In the mean time, I noticed that I missed a few test failures:
adding the SONAME to the IPA makes it possible for the test executable
to erroneously pick up libinproctrace.so from /usr/lib if the test
harness failed to put the libinproctrace.so we want to test in the right
place. To mitigate that kind of error in the future, we can use the
return value of gdb_load_shlib (the path of the "runtime" version of the
library) and use that to search in the output of info sharedlibrary.
When testing locally, gdb_load_shlib returns the full normalized path of
the destination library, which the test executable should use e.g.:
/path/to/gdb/testsuite/outputs/gdb.trace/thetest/libinproctrace.so
My testing showed that it was the same path that gdb displayed in info
sharedlibrary. If the test executable picks up another
libinproctrace.so, the test will fail.
When testing remotely, gdb_load_shlib/gdb_remote_download only returns
us "libinproctrace.so", so the situation doesn't really change. If
there is a rogue libinproctrace.so in /usr/lib on the target and we fail
to download ours, it might cover up a test failure. But that situation
is probably still better than the original one, where it wasn't possible
to test remotely using the IPA at all.

This patch makes gdb_load_shlibs return the destination path of the
copied library. To make the procedure implementation and interface more
straightforward, it also changes it so that it accepts a single shared
library path at the time. Therefore, calls that are passed multiple
libraries:
gdb_load_shlibs $lib1 $lib2
must be changed to separate calls:
gdb_load_shlibs $lib1
gdb_load_shlibs $lib2
A subtle impact is the solib-search-path handling. In the former
version, solib-search-path is set using the directory of the first
passed lib (further calls overwrite the value). In the later version,
the directory of the library passed to the last call to gdb_load_shlibs
remnains. I don't think that's a problem in practice, since if we had
tests that needed multiple different paths in solib-search-path, they
wouldn't work in the first place.

so GDB does nothing wrong. Program hits breakpoint on either line 14
or line 15 is right to me. With anther gcc (4.9.3), the line-table looks
correct, and no test fail. Instead of setting breakpoint on main and
assuming the line is what we get from the source, we can set breakpoint
on that line. On the other hand, the test prints the values of the
array and check, so we need to set breakpoint on the line setting the
values of array and "next", rather than setting the breakpoint on main.

(gdb) FAIL: gdb.reverse/step-precsave.exp: reverse step into fn call
As we can see, the "step" has already stepped into the function callee,
but in the last line. The second "step" attempts to step to function
body, but it goes out of callee, which isn't expected.
The program is compiled with -marm and -fomit-frame-pointer, the
function callee is prologue-less, because nothing needs to be saved
on stack,
(gdb) disassemble callee
Dump of assembler code for function callee:

program stops at the 0x106a0 (passed the epilogue) after the first
"step". When second "step" is executed, the stepping range is
[0x10680-0x106a0], which starts from the first instruction of function
callee (because it doesn't have prologue).
infrun: resume (step=1, signal=GDB_SIGNAL_0), trap_expected=0, current thread [LWP 2461] at 0x1069c^M

infrun: TARGET_WAITKIND_STOPPED^M
infrun: stop_pc = 0x10698^M
infrun: stepping inside range [0x10680-0x106a0]
When program goes out of the range, it stops at the caller of callee,
and test fails. IOW, if function callee has prologue, the stepping
range won't start from the first instruction of the function, and
program stops at the prologue and test passes.
IMO, GDB does nothing wrong, but test shouldn't expect the program
stops in callee after the second "step". I decide to fix test rather
than GDB. In this patch, I change to test to do one "step", and check
the program is still in callee, then, do multiple "step" until program
goes out of the callee.

GDBserver doesn't deliver signal when stepping over a breakpoint even
hardware single step is used. When GDBserver started to step over
(thread creation) breakpoint for mutlit-threaded debugging in 2002 [1],
GDBserver behaves this way.
This behavior gets trouble on conditional breakpoints on branch to
self instruction like this,
0x00000000004005b6 <+29>: jmp 0x4005b6 <main+29>
and I set breakpoint
$(gdb) break branch-to-self.c:43 if counter > 3
and the variable counter will be set to 5 in SIGALRM signal handler.
Since GDBserver keeps stepping over breakpoint, the SIGALRM can never
be dequeued and delivered to the inferior, so the program can't stop.
The test can be found in gdb.base/branch-to-self.exp.
GDBserver didn't deliver signal when stepping over a breakpoint because
a tracepoint is collected twice if GDBserver does so in the following
scenario, which can be reproduced by gdb.trace/signal.exp.
- program stops at tracepoint, and tracepoint is collected,
- gdbserver starts a step-over,
- a signal arrives, step-over is canceled, and signal should be passed,
- gdbserver starts a new step-over again, pass the signal as well,
- program stops at the entry of signal handler, step-over finished,
- gdbserver proceeds,
- program returns from the signal handler, again to the tracepoint,
and thus is collected again.
The spurious collection isn't that harmful, IMO, so it should be OK
to let GDBserver deliver signal when stepping over a breakpoint.

signal, there might be spurious collection.

After compiling a program which uses C++ references some optimizations may
convert the references into synthetic "pointers". Trying to print the address
of one of such synthetic references causes gdb to crash with the following
error:
(gdb) print &ref
/build/buildd/gdb-7.7.1/gdb/dwarf2loc.c:1624: internal-error: Should not be able to create a lazy value with an enclosing type
A problem internal to GDB has been detected,
further debugging may prove unreliable.
Apparently, what was causing it was that value_addr returns a copy of the value
that represents the reference with its type set to T* instead of T&. However,
its enclosing_type is left untouched, which fails a check made in
read_pieced_value. We only see the crash happen for references that are
synthetic because they're treated as pieced values, thus the call to
read_pieced_value.
On a related note, it seems that in general there are all sorts of breakage
when working with synthetic references. This is reported here:

This test exercises the scenarios where we attempt to connect GDB to GDBserver
in standard remote mode, query the symbol file path, attempt to open said
symbol file on GDB's end and fail, causing the connection to drop abruptly.

This patch fixes the current comment in gdb_remote_download, which is
false (the "except if that's already where it is" part). It also
improves it, by explaining why pass TOFILE through standard_output_file,
even it is an absolute path.
gdb/testsuite/ChangeLog:
* lib/gdb.exp (gdb_remote_download): Fix and extend comment.
gdbserver-base.exp is used as the base for both native-gdbserver.exp and
native-extended-gdbserver.exp. (Despite its name, it should really be
considered as a "local-gdbserver-base", as it's not really appropriate to
implement a remote gdbserver board.)
Currently, the _download procedure is implemented as a no-op (it returns
the source file path). Because of the SONAME change, The fast
tracepoint tests now require the executable and the IPA
(libinproctrace.so) to be located in the same directory (see [1]). When
using the native-gdbserver board, because _download returns the original
file path, the executable does not end up in the same directory as the
library, and it fails to execute.
In more general terms, with the recent changes, the testsuite now
assumes that when it does
${board}_download <source path 1> <destination path 1>
${board}_download <source path 2> <destination path 2>
where the destination paths are relative (generally just the file name),
both files will end up in the same base directory. That assumption does
not hold for the current implementation in gdbserver-base.exp.
The proper fix would be to make native-gdbserver non-remote, so that
gdb_remote_download would not call DejaGnu's remote_download (see [2]).
We could then get rid of ${board}_download in gdbserver-base.exp.
However, that will likely take some time to complete. In the mean time,
in order to make the fast tracepoint tests pass, we can simply copy the
file to the standard output directory. Basically, it just mimics what
gdb_remote_download would do if the board wasn't flagged as remote.
Note that I missed these failures originally because I had a
libinproctrace.so in /usr/local/lib. So, even though libinproctrace.so
wasn't copied to the test output directory, it did find the one in
/usr/local/lib. It would be nice to find a way to protect against this,
as it could easily happen again...
Regtested with unix, native-gdbserver and native-extended-gdbserver, and
didn't see anything notable, except the ftrace tests now passing for
native-gdbserver.

This patch fixes the following failure:
FAIL: gdb.trace/trace-condition.exp: ftrace: -(21 << 1) == -42: check 10
frames were collected.
This was due to aarch64_emit_sub using the wrong order in its operands, so the
operation would end up being 42 - 0 rather than 0 - 42.
This patch also fixes the order of aarch64_emit_add for clarity.
The test case for emit_sub is fixed so that the proper order of
the operands is needed for the test to pass.
Tested on aarch64-native-extended-gdbserver.
Note: trace-condition.exp was broken a bit so I had to modify it to run
the test. A fix is coming for that in another patch.

There are a few small changes needed to make it work with a real remote
target.
- Remove the [is_remote target] check.
- Remove soname setting when building the lib, it's done by default now
anyway.
- In the compilation of the executable, pass the shared lib using the
shlib option, so that RPATH is set.
- Download the program to the target using gdb_remote_download, and
record the remote path. Remove loading of the program using
gdb_load_shlibs, which was not really appropriate anyway.
- Run the remote path through readlink (see comment in the code).
- Start gdbserver with the remote path.
Also, don't set executable and objfile variables, as they are unused.
Tested with native, native-gdbserver, native-extended-gdbserver, and a
remote gdbserver.
gdb/testsuite/ChangeLog:
* gdb.server/solib-list.exp: Remove is_remote check.
Pass shlib= to gdb_compile. Don't link shared library with
-soname. Call gdb_remote_download instead of gdb_load_shlibs.
Run binary filename through "readlink -f" on the target.

There's actually no need to download the interpreter to the target -
it's part of the target system/environment. So fix this by making the
test just not use gdb_load (and gdb_file_cmd as consequence) at all,
and instead pass the interpreter filename to gdbserver as an argument.

This patch implements a test that ensures that with "set print object
on", -var-create returns "<optimized out>" for an optimized out pointer
to structure, rather than throwing an error, while also ensuring that
any attempt to dereference the pointer *will* throw an error.
It uses the dwarf assembler to construct the appropriate debug info
to represent a pointer-to-struct in the program as optimized out,
and then accesses that pointer in various ways. The test uses both
the console interpreter and the MI interpreter.

In commit 6e774b13c3, I forgot to update this test.
gdb/testsuite/ChangeLog:
* gdb.arch/ftrace-insn-reloc.exp: Check for IPA basename instead of
absolute.
When we build a shared library for testing, it is built differently
whether it is meant for the local system or a remote one. When it is
for the local system, the library is built with no SONAME. So when the
executable is built, roughly in this way:
$ gcc testfile.c /path/to/library.so
the executable will contain an absolute reference to the library. For
example:
$ readelf -a testsuite/gdb.python/py-shared | grep NEEDED
0x0000000000000001 (NEEDED) Shared library: [/home/emaisin/build/binutils-gdb/gdb/testsuite/gdb.python/py-shared-sl.sl]
When testing is done remotely, the absolute path obviously doesn't work.
Therefore, we build the library with an SONAME:
$ readelf -a testsuite/gdb.python/py-shared-sl.sl | grep SONAME
0x000000000000000e (SONAME) Library soname: [py-shared-sl.sl]
which ends up in the executable's NEEDED field:
$ readelf -a testsuite/gdb.python/py-shared | grep NEEDED
0x0000000000000001 (NEEDED) Shared library: [py-shared-sl.sl]
The executable and the library are then uploaded side-by-side on the
remote system. To allow the dynamic linker to find the shared library,
we have to add the special RPATH value $ORIGIN, which tells it to search
in the executable's directory:
$ readelf -a testsuite/gdb.python/py-shared | grep ORIGIN
0x000000000000000f (RPATH) Library rpath: [$ORIGIN]
The problem with the IPA library is that it doesn't have an SONAME,
making it very difficult to do testing on a remote board. When a
test executable is linked with it, it contains an absolute reference to
the library path. Therefore, unless the paths on the target are the
same as on the build system, it won't work.
To make it possible for tests using the IPA library to run test on
remote boards, I suggest adding an SONAME to libinproctrace.so. I don't
think it should be a big problem for users. All the libraries installed
on my system have an SONAME, so it should be fine if libinproctrace.so
does too.
As a consequence, native testing does not work anymore, since
executables do not contain the absolute path to the library anymore. To
keep them working, we can have gdb_load_shlibs copy the library to the
test directory when testing natively. That's done by modifying
gdb_load_shlibs. We also have to add RPATH=$ORIGIN to executables, even
when testing natively.
I think it's a good change in general, as it reduces the differences
between testing a native and a remote target. To further reduce those
differences, we can also always build test shared libraries with an
SONAME.
ftrace.exp and ftrace-lock.exp need to be modified slightly. The code
checks that the IPA library is loaded using the absolute path on the
build machine. That obviously doesn't work if the test is done
remotely, as the path will be different. I changed the tests to only
search for the library basename (e.g. libinproctrace.so).
gdb/gdbserver/ChangeLog:
* Makefile.in ($(IPA_LIB)): Set SONAME of the IPA lib.
gdb/testsuite/ChangeLog:
* gdb.trace/ftrace-lock.exp: Check for IPA basename instead of
absolute.
* gdb.trace/ftrace.exp: Likewise.
* lib/gdb.exp (gdb_compile): Set rpath $ORIGIN for non-remote
targets as well.
(gdb_compile_shlib): Set SONAME for non-remote targets as well.
(gdb_load_shlibs): Copy libraries to test directory when testing
natively. Only set solib-search-path if testing remotely.
* lib/mi-support.exp (mi_load_shlibs): Likewise.
This patch removes gdb_download in favor of gdb_remote_download, since
they are very close in functionality. Also, in preparation for the
following patch about shared library handling during tests, it improves
gdb_remote_download so that it uses standard_output_file for any
destination board that is local, not only host.
If the destination board is remote, gdb_remote_download will use the
standard remote_download from DejaGnu, resulting in the file being
transferred on the remote system.
If the destination is local, gdb_remote_download will copy the file to
the standard test directory (found using standard_output_file). Tcl's
file copy seems to handle gracefully cases where the source file is the
same as the destination, so I don't think it's necessary to check for
that case ourselves, as a previous version of the patch did.
I'd prefer to keep the name gdb_download instead of gdb_remote_download,
since I don't like the fact that gdb_remote_download implies that the
destination is remote, when it's not always the case. However,
gdb_remote_download is used at many more places than gdb_download, so
it's easier to reuse that. Also, since it's a wrapper around DejaGnu's
remote_download, it might be better to keep that name. I don't know.
I ran the testsuite native, with native-gdbserver and with a
remote gdbserver, and didn't see any related failure.
gdb/testsuite/ChangeLog:
* gdb.base/jit-so.exp: Use gdb_remote_download instead of
gdb_download. Use it even if the target is not remote.
* gdb.base/jit.exp (compile_jit_test): Likewise.
* lib/gdb.exp (gdb_remote_download): Copy files to the standard

* lib/mi-support.exp (mi_load_shlibs): Use gdb_remote_download
instead of gdb_download.
The libraries are never downloaded to the target for the first test
(test_insert_delete_modify), so the executable can't run properly.
I also added some with_test_prefix to help differentiate between the
different test case phases.
gdb/testsuite/ChangeLog:
* gdb.mi/mi-breakpoint-changed.exp: Add some with_test_prefix.
(test_insert_delete_modify): Call mi_load_shlibs before trying to

This patch adds support for TYPE_CODE_ENUM values to be supplied
as right-hand side operand of the BINOP_REPEAT (@) operator. The
following should now work:
enum {
sz = 17
};
int
main ()
{
int arr[sz + 1] = { 0 };
return 0; /* line 9 here */
}
(gdb) b 9
(gdb) r
(gdb) p arr@sz
$1 = {0 <repeats 17 times>}

A couple of tests is also included in this patch to demonstrate that it is
working as intended.

This patch addresses "fork:Interrupted system call" (or wait:) failures
in gdb.threads/forking-threads-plus-breakpoint.exp.
The test program spawns ten threads, each of which do ten fork/waitpid
sequences. The cause of the problem was that when one of the fork
children exited before the corresponding fork parent could initiate its
waitpid for that child, a SIGCHLD and/or SIGSTOP was delivered and
interrupted a fork or waitpid in another thread.
The fix was to wrap the system calls in a loop to retry the call if
it was interrupted, like:
do
{
pid = fork ();
}
while (pid == -1 && errno == EINTR);
Since this is a Linux-only test I figure it is OK to use errno and EINTR.
I tried a number of alternative fixes using SIG_IGN, SA_RESTART,
pthread_sigblock, and bsd_signal, but none of these worked as well.

match. Split it into two tests instead, one looking for the pending
tracepoint location, and the other for two installed locations.
gdb/testsuite/ChangeLog:
* gdb.trace/change-loc.exp: Don't depend on tracepoint location
ordering.
On powerpc64, foo/bar point to a function descriptor, not to function code.
Since there are no global labels pointing at the actual function code,
let's make our own.
Regression-tested on x86_64.
gdb/testsuite/ChangeLog:
* gdb.trace/unavailable-dwarf-piece.c (foo): Add foo_start_lbl label.
(bar): Add bar_start_lbl label.
* gdb.trace/unavailable-dwarf-piece.exp: Use foo/bar_start_lbl instead
of foo/bar for emitting DWARF and tracing.
I forgot to do it in my previous commit. This is necessary because we
execute the script directly on gdb/testsuite/Makefile.in.

* analyze-racy-logs.py: Set executable bit.
This is an initial attempt to introduce some mechanisms to identify
racy testcases present in our testsuite. As can be seen in previous
discussions, racy tests are really bothersome and cause our BuildBot
to pollute the gdb-testers mailing list with hundreds of
false-positives messages every month. Hopefully, identifying these
racy tests in advance (and automatically) will contribute to the
reduction of noise traffic to gdb-testers, maybe to the point where we
will be able to send the failure messages directly to the authors of
the commits.
I spent some time trying to decide the best way to tackle this
problem, and decided that there is no silver bullet. Racy tests are
tricky and it is difficult to catch them, so the best solution I could
find (for now?) is to run our testsuite a number of times in a row,
and then compare the results (i.e., the gdb.sum files generated during
each run). The more times you run the tests, the more racy tests you
are likely to detect (at the expense of waiting longer and longer).
You can also run the tests in parallel, which makes things faster (and
contribute to catching more racy tests, because your machine will have
less resources for each test and some of them are likely to fail when
this happens). I did some tests in my machine (8-core i7, 16GB RAM),
and running the whole GDB testsuite 5 times using -j6 took 23 minutes.
Not bad.
In order to run the racy test machinery, you need to specify the
RACY_ITER environment variable. You will assign a number to this
variable, which represents the number of times you want to run the
tests. So, for example, if you want to run the whole testsuite 3
times in parallel (using 2 cores), you will do:
make check RACY_ITER=3 -j2
It is also possible to use the TESTS variable and specify which tests
you want to run:
make check TEST='gdb.base/default.exp' RACY_ITER=3 -j2
And so on. The output files will be put at the directory
gdb/testsuite/racy_outputs/.
After make invokes the necessary rules to run the tests, it finally
runs a Python script that will analyze the resulting gdb.sum files.
This Python script will read each file, and construct a series of sets
based on the results of the tests (one set for FAIL's, one for
PASS'es, one for KFAIL's, etc.). It will then do some set operations
and come up with a list of unique, sorted testcases that are racy.
The algorithm behind this is:
for state in PASS, FAIL, XFAIL, XPASS...; do
if a test's state in every sumfile is $state; then
it is not racy
else
it is racy
(The algorithm is actually a bit more complex than that, because it
takes into account other things in order to decide whether the test
should be ignored or not).
IOW, a test must have the same state in every sumfile.
After processing everything, the script prints the racy tests it could
identify on stdout. I am redirecting this to a file named racy.sum.
Something else that I wasn't sure how to deal with was non-unique
messages in our testsuite. I decided to do the same thing I do in our
BuildBot: include a unique identifier in the end of message, like:
gdb.base/xyz.exp: non-unique message
gdb.base/xyz.exp: non-unique message <<2>>
This means that you will have to be careful about them when you use
the racy.sum file.
I ran the script several times here, and it did a good job catching
some well-known racy tests. Overall, I am satisfied with this
approach and I think it will be helpful to have it upstream'ed. I
also intend to extend our BuildBot and create new, specialized
builders that will be responsible for detecting the racy tests every X
number of days.

We can also extend disp-step-syscall.exp to test GDBserver step over

step over it.
This test triggers a GDBserver internal error, which can be fixed by
this series.

If gdbserver and IPA are using different tdesc, they will disagree
about 'R' trace packet size. This results in mangled traces.
To make sure they pick the same tdesc, gdbserver pokes the tdesc
(specified as an index in a target-specific list) into a global
variable in IPA. In theory, IPA could find out the tdesc on its
own, but that may be complex (in particular, I don't know how to
tell whether we have LAST_BREAK on s390 without messing with ptrace),
and we'd have to duplicate the logic.
Tested on i386 and x86_64. On i386, it fixes two FAILs in ftrace.exp.
On x86_64, these failures have been KFAILed - one of them works now,
but the other now fails due to an unrelated reason (ugh).

With Intel Memory Protection Extensions it was introduced the concept of
boundary violation. A boundary violations is presented to the inferior as
a segmentation fault having SIGCODE 3. This patch adds a
handler for a boundary violation extending the information displayed
when a bound violation is presented to the inferior. In the stop mode
case the debugger will also display the kind of violation: "upper" or
"lower", bounds and the address accessed.
On no stop mode the information will still remain unchanged. Additional
information about bound violations are not meaningful in that case user
does not know the line in which violation occurred as well.
When the segmentation fault handler is stop mode the out puts will be
changed as exemplified below.
The usual output of a segfault is:
Program received signal SIGSEGV, Segmentation fault
0x0000000000400d7c in upper (p=0x603010, a=0x603030, b=0x603050,
c=0x603070, d=0x603090, len=7) at i386-mpx-sigsegv.c:68
68 value = *(p + len);
In case it is a bound violation it will be presented as:
Program received signal SIGSEGV, Segmentation fault
Upper bound violation while accessing address 0x7fffffffc3b3
Bounds: [lower = 0x7fffffffc390, upper = 0x7fffffffc3a3]
0x0000000000400d7c in upper (p=0x603010, a=0x603030, b=0x603050,
c=0x603070, d=0x603090, len=7) at i386-mpx-sigsegv.c:68
68 value = *(p + len);
In mi mode the output of a segfault is:
*stopped,reason="signal-received",signal-name="SIGSEGV",
signal-meaning="Segmentation fault", frame={addr="0x0000000000400d7c",
func="upper",args=[{name="p", value="0x603010"},{name="a",value="0x603030"}

This patch fixes an internal error that occurs in
gdb.threads/forking-threads-plus-breakpoint.exp:
/blah/binutils-gdb/gdb/target.c:2723: internal-error: Can't determine the
current address space of thread Thread 3170.3170
In default_thread_address_space, find_inferior_ptid couldn't find 3170.3170
because it had been overwritten in inferior_appeared, called as follows:
inferior_appeared
remote_add_inferior
remote_notice_new_inferior
remote_update_thread_list
The cause of the problem was the following sequence of events:
* GDB knows only about the main thread
* the first fork event is reported to GDB, saved as pending_event
* qXfer:threads:read gets the threads from the remote.
remove_new_fork_children id's the fork child from the pending event
and removes it from the list reported to GDB. All the rest of the
threads, including the fork parent, are added to the GDB thread list.
* GDB stops all the threads. All the stop events are pushed onto the
stop reply queue behind the pending fork event. The fork waitstatus
is saved in the fork parent thread's pending status field
thread_info.suspend.
* remote_wait_ns calls queued_stop_reply and process_stop_reply to
remove the fork event from the front of the stop reply queue and save
event information in the thread_info structure for the fork parent
thread. Unfortunately, none of the information saved in this way is
the fork-specific information.
* A subsequent qXfer:threads:read packet gets the thread list including
the fork parent and fork child. remove_new_fork_children checks the
thread list to see if there is a fork parent, doesn't find one, checks
the stop reply queue for a pending fork event, doesn't find one, and
allows the fork child thread to be reported to GDB before the fork
event has been handled. remote_update_thread_list calls
remote_notice_new_thread and overwrites the current (main) thread in
inferior_appeared.
So the fork event has been reported out of target_wait but it was left
pending on the infrun side (infrun.c:save_waitstatus). IOW, the fork
event hasn't been processed by handle_inferior_event yet, so it hasn't
made it to tp->pending_follow yet.
The fix is to check thread_info.suspend along with the
thread_info.pending_follow in remote.c:remove_new_fork_children, to
prevent premature reporting of the fork child thread creation.

Just like standard_output_file, standard_temp_file should use multiple
directories to make the tests parallel-safe. However,
standard_temp_file is sometimes called in some procedures that are not
test-specific. For example, gdb_init uses it, but is called once before
all test files are ran. Therefore, we can't organize it in a
temp/gdb.subdir/testname layout, like standard_output_file.
Because it's just meant for temporary files that don't really need to be
inspected after the test, we can just put them in a directory based on
the runtest pid. There is always a single exp file being executed by a
particular runtest invocation at any given time, so it should be safe.
gdb/testsuite/ChangeLog:
* lib/gdb.exp (standard_temp_file): Return a path specific to
the runtest invocation.
In save-trace.exp, we want to test loading of a tracepoint definition
file with a relative path (I am not sure why in fact). We currently use
"savetrace-relative.tr", which ends up directly in testsuite/. If we
use [standard_output_file] on that path, it becomes absolute. I decided
to just replace [pwd] with . (a dot) in the path given by
standard_output_file to make it relative. However, this trick only
works because [pwd] is a prefix of the standard output directory. So I
added a check to verify that precondition.
gdb/testsuite/ChangeLog:
* gdb.trace/save-trace.exp: Change relative path to be in the
standard output directory.

GDB step cross kernel helpers only works if the kernel helpers are tail
called, which is the case how it is used in glibc. See __aeabi_read_tp
in sysdeps/unix/sysv/linux/arm/aeabi_read_tp.S. In __aeabi_read_tp,
branch/jump to the kernel helper is the last instruction, and the next
instruction address is in LR, which is in caller function. GDB can
handle this correctly. For example, glibc function __GI___ctype_init
calls __aeabi_read_tp
0xb6e19b30 <__GI___ctype_init+4>: ldr r3, [pc, #80] ;
0xb6e19b34 <__GI___ctype_init+8>: bl 0xb6e0a6e0 <__aeabi_read_tp>
0xb6e19b38 <__GI___ctype_init+12>: ldr r3, [pc, r3]
and __aeabi_read_tp calls kernel helper,
(gdb) disassemble __aeabi_read_tp
0xb6fef5d0 <+0>: mvn r0, #61440 ; 0xf000
0xb6fef5d4 <+4>: sub pc, r0, #31
once GDB or GDBserver single step instruction on 0xb6fef5d4, LR is
0xb6e19b38, which is right address of next instruction to set breakpoint
on.
However, if the kernel helpers are not tail-called, the LR is still the
address in the caller function of kernel helper's caller, which isn't
the right address of next instruction to set breakpoint on. For example,
we use kernel helper in main,
(gdb) disassemble main
....
0x00008624 <+32>: mov r3, #4064 ; 0xfe0^M
0x00008628 <+36>: movt r3, #65535 ; 0xffff^M
0x0000862c <+40>: blx r3
0x00008630 <+44>: ldr r3, [r11, #-8]
kernel helper is called on 0x0000862c and the expected next instruction
address is 0x00008630, but the LR now is the return address of main.
The problem here is LR may not have the right address because when we
single step the instruction, it isn't executed yet, so the LR isn't
updated. This patch fix this problem by decoding instruction, if the
instruction updates LR (BL and BLX), the next instruction address is
PC + INSN_SIZE, otherwise, get the address of next instruction from LR.

In skip_artificial_frames we repeatedly call get_prev_frame_always until we get
a non-inline and non-tailcall frame assuming that there must be such a frame
eventually.
For record targets, however, we may have a frame chain that consists only of
artificial frames. This leads to a crash in get_frame_type when dereferencing a
NULL frame pointer.
Change skip_artificial_frames and skip_tailcall_frames to return NULL in such a
case and modify each caller to cope with a NULL return.
In frame_unwind_caller_pc and frame_unwind_caller_arch, we simply assert that
the returned value is not NULL. Their caller was supposed to check
frame_unwind_caller_id before calling those functions.
In other cases, we thrown an error.
In infcmd further move the skip_tailcall_frames call to the forward-stepping
case since we don't need a frame for reverse execution and we don't want to fail
because of that. Reverse-finish does make sense for a tailcall frame.

Currently, you can cd to the gdb/testsuite/ dir and use
make check-parallel, instead of using FORCE_PARALLEL:
$ make -j8 check-parallel RUNTESTFLAGS="--target_board=native-gdbserver"
$ make -j8 check RUNTESTFLAGS="--target_board=native-gdbserver" FORCE_PARALLEL=1
But you can't do that in the build/gdb/ dir:
$ make check-parallel RUNTESTFLAGS="--target_board=native-gdbserver"
make: *** No rule to make target `check-parallel'. Stop.
I find check-parallel a bit more convenient, and more typo-proof, so
this patch makes it work from the gdb build dir too.

- register order in tfile_fetch_registers (without that, $ymm15h is

- off-by-one in tfile_fetch_registers (without that, $ymm15h is

One of the last checks update_breakpoints_after_exec does while looping
over the list of breakpoints is check that the breakpoint has a valid
location spec. It uses event_location_empty_p to check if the location spec
is "empty", and if it is, the breakpoint is deleted.
momentary_breakpoint types rely on setting the breakpoint structure's
location spec to NULL, thereby causing an update to delete the breakpoint.
However, event_location_empty_p assumed that locations were never NULL.
As a result, GDB would crash dereferencing a NULL pointer whenever
update_breakpoints_after_exec would encounter a momentary_breakpoint.
This patch creates a new wrapper/helper function which tests that the given
breakpoint's location spec is non-NULL and if it is not "empty"
or "unspecified."

[PR17431: following execs with "breakpoint always-inserted on"]
https://sourceware.org/ml/gdb-patches/2014-09/msg00733.html
The problem this time is that we currently update the global location
list and try to insert breakpoint locations after re-setting _each_
breakpoint in turn.
Say:
- We have _more_ than one breakpoint set. Let's assume 2.
- There's a breakpoint with a pre-exec address that ends up being an
unmapped address after the exec.
- That breakpoint is NOT the first in the breakpoint list.
Then when handling an exec, and we re-set the first breakpoint in the
breakpoint list, we mistakently try to install the old pre-exec /
un-re-set locations of the other breakpoint, which fails:

Tighten expected GDB output.
When running tests in parallel, each test puts its generated files in a
different directory, under "outputs". I think it would be nice if it
was always the case, as it would isolate the test cases a bit more. An
artifact created by a test wouldn't get overwritten by another test.
Also, it makes it easier to clean up. A lot of executables are left all
over the place because their names do not appear in gdb.*/Makefile. If
everything is in "outputs", then we just have to delete that directory
(which we already do).
At the same time it makes the gdb.foo directories and their Makefiles
useless in the build directory, since they are pretty much only used for
cleaning.
What do you think?

While testing the following patch,
[PATCH] Always organize test artifacts in a directory hierarchy
https://sourceware.org/ml/gdb-patches/2016-01/msg00133.html
I noticed that it broke Ada testing. This lead me to think that
parallel testing when building in-tree didn't work previously in Ada.
It is confirmed by this test:
$ make check TESTS="gdb.ada/fun_addr.exp" -j 2
...
Running ./gdb.ada/fun_addr.exp ...
FAIL: gdb.ada/fun_addr.exp: compilation foo.adb
...
This patch fixes in-tree parallel testing for Ada, and consequently
serial and parallel testing when the aforementioned patch is applied.
The problem originates from the fact that Ada support code cd's to the
builddir before compiling. In itself it's not a problem, it allows to
place intermediate auto-generated files in that directory. The Ada
compilation refers to the source file, which is in another directory,
only by its base name (e.g. foo.adb). In serial mode, that worked
because builddir was the same as the source directory (e.g.
gdb.ada/fun_addr/). In an out-of-tree build, it works because the
source directory is added as an include directory (note: this is not the
same $srcdir as autoconf's):
set srcdir [file dirname $source]
additional_flags=-I$srcdir
which becomes:
additional_flags=-I/home/emaisin/build/binutils-gdb/gdb/testsuite/gdb.ada/fun_addr
However, when building in-tree, srcdir is relative: ./gdb.ada/fun_addr.
When using parallel or always-in-outputs-directory mode, we are cd'ed in
the outputs directory. So -I$srcdir is relative to the current
directory, which is wrong.
To fix it, I made the TCL variable srcdir (set in site.exp, from which
everything else is derived) always absolute. It is done by assigning
autoconf's abs_srcdir instead of autoconf's srcdir. This way -I$srcdir
will always be good, regardless of where we cd'ed to. A small apparent
change is that when running tests, DejaGnu will say:
Running /tmp/binutils-gdb/gdb/testsuite/gdb.ada/fun_addr.exp ...
instead of
Running ./gdb.ada/fun_addr.exp ...
I hope it's not too much of an annoyance. I think that it should make
the testsuite a tiny bit more robust against other bugs of the same
class.
Regtested in & out of tree, only with native target.
gdb/testsuite/ChangeLog:
* Makefile.in (abs_srcdir): Assign @abs_srcdir@.
(site.exp): Assign abs_srcdir to tcl's srcdir.
BASEDIR was added by https://sourceware.org/ml/gdb-patches/2013-10/msg00587.html
in order to handle the different directory layout in serial testing
and parallel testing. BASEDIR is "gdb.base" in serial testing and is
"outputs/gdb.base/TESTNAME" in parallel testing. However, it doesn't
work if the GDBserver is in remote target, like this,
$ make check RUNTESTFLAGS='--target_board=remote-gdbserver-on-localhost foll-vfork.exp foll-exec.exp'
FAIL: gdb.base/foll-exec.exp: continue to first exec catchpoint (the program exited)
FAIL: gdb.base/foll-vfork.exp: exec: vfork and exec child follow, to main bp: continue to bp (the program exited)
FAIL: gdb.base/foll-vfork.exp: exec: vfork child follow, finish after tcatch vfork: finish (the program exited)
FAIL: gdb.base/foll-vfork.exp: exec: vfork relations in info inferiors: continue to bp (the program exited)
these tests fail because the executable can't be found. With target
board native-gdbserver, the program is spawned this way,
spawn ../gdbserver/gdbserver --once :2347 /scratch/yao/gdb/build-git/x86_64/gdb/testsuite/gdb.base/foll-vfork
so BASEDIR is correct. However, with target board
remote-gdbserver-on-localhost, the program is spawned
spawn /usr/bin/ssh -l yao localhost /scratch/yao/gdb/build-git/x86_64/gdb/testsuite/../gdbserver/gdbserver --once :2346 /scratch/yao/gdb/build-git/x86_64/gdb/testsuite/gdb.base/foll-vfork
so BASEDIR (either "gdb.base" or "outputs/gdb.base/TESTNAME") makes no
sense.
I had a fix that pass absolute directory to BASEDIR, but it assumes
that directory structure is the same on build and target, and it
doesn't work in remote host case. The current fix in this patch is
to get the directory from argv[0]. In any case, the program to be
exec'ed is at the same directory with the main program.
Note that these tests do "next N" to let program stop at the desired
line, but it is fragile, because GDB for different targets may skip
function prologue slightly differently, so I replace some of them by
"tbreak on LINE NUMBER and continue".

The test gdb.mi/mi-vla-fortran.exp reveals an issue with the DWARF
generated by gfortran.
In the test a pointer variable 'pvla2' is created:
real, pointer :: pvla2 (:, :)
Initially this variable will be unassociated, so something like this:
l = associated(pvla2)
should return false.
In the test gdb stops at a point _before_ pvla2 is associated with
anything, and we then try to print pvla2, the expectation is that gdb
should reply <not associated>.
The problem is that the data the DWARF directs gdb to read (to identify
if the variable is associated or not) is not initialised until the first
time pvla2 is accessed.
As a result gdb ends up reading uninitialised memory, sometimes this
uninitialised memory indicates the variable is associated (when it's
not). This first mistake can lead to a cascade of errors, reading
uninitialised memory, with the result that gdb builds an invalid type to
associate with the variable pvla2.
In some cases, this invalid type can be very large, which when we try to
print pvla2 causes gdb to allocate a large amount of memory.
A recent commit added a new gdb variable 'max-value-size', which
prevents gdb from allocating values of extreme size. As a result
directly trying to print pvla2 will now now error rather than allocate a
large amount of memory.
However, some of the later tests create a varobj for pvla2, and then
ask for the children of that varobj to be displayed. In the case where
an invalid type has been computed for pvla2 then the number of children
can be wrong, and very big, in which case trying to display all of these
children can cause gdb to consume an excessive amount of memory.
This commit first detects if printing pvla2 triggers the max-value-size
error, if it does then we avoid all the follow on tests relating to the
unassociated pvla2, which avoids the second error printing the varobj
children.
gdb/testsuite/ChangeLog:
* gdb.mi/mi-vla-fortran.exp: Add XFAIL for accessing unassociated
pointer. Don't perform further tests on the unassociated pointer
if the first test fails.
For languages with dynamic types, an incorrect program, or uninitialised
variables within a program, could result in an incorrect, overly large
type being associated with a value. Currently, attempting to print such
a variable will result in gdb trying to allocate an overly large buffer.
If this large memory allocation fails then the result can be gdb either
terminating, or (due to memory contention) becoming unresponsive for the
user.
A new user visible variable in gdb helps guard against such problems,
two new commands are available:
set max-value-size
show max-value-size
The 'max-value-size' is the maximum size of memory in bytes that gdb
will allocate for the contents of a value. Any attempt to allocate a
value with a size greater than this will result in an error. The
initial default for this limit is set at 64k, this is based on a similar
limit that exists within the ada specific code.
It is possible for the user to set max-value-size to unlimited, in which
case the old behaviour is restored.

If you have "set follow-fork child" set, then if you do "info threads"
right after a fork, and before the child reports any other event to
GDB core, you'll see:
(gdb) info threads
Id Target Id Frame
* 1.1 Thread 0x7ffff7fc1740 (LWP 31875) "fork-plus-threa" (running)
2.1 process 31879 "fork-plus-threa" Selected thread is running.
(gdb)
The "Selected thread is running." bit is a bogus error. That was GDB
trying to fetch the current frame of thread 2.1, because the external
runnning state is "stopped", and then throwing an error because the
thread is actually running.
This actually affects all-stop + schedule-multiple as well.
The problem here is that on a fork event, GDB doesn't update the
external parent/child running states.
New comprehensive test included. The "kill inferior 1" / "kill
inferior 2" bits also trip on PR gdb/19494 (hang killing unfollowed
fork children), which was fixed by the previous patch.

linux_nat_kill relies on get_last_target_status to determine whether
the current inferior is stopped at a unfollowed fork/vfork event.
This is bad because many things can happen ever since we caught the
fork/vfork event... This commit rewrites that code to instead walk
the thread list looking for unfollowed fork events, similarly to what
was done for remote.c.
New test included. The main idea of the test is make sure that when
the program stops for a fork catchpoint, and the user kills the
parent, gdb also kills the unfollowed fork child. Since the child
hasn't been added as an inferior at that point, we need some other
portable way to detect that the child is gone. The test uses a pipe
for that. The program forks twice, so you have grandparent, child and
grandchild. The grandchild inherits the write side of the pipe. The
grandparent hangs reading from the pipe, since nothing ever writes to
it. If, when GDB kills the child, it also kills the grandchild, then
the grandparent's pipe read returns 0/EOF and the test passes.
Otherwise, if GDB doesn't kill the grandchild, then the pipe read
never returns and the test times out, like:
FAIL: gdb.base/catch-fork-kill.exp: fork-kind=fork: exit-kind=kill: fork: kill parent (timeout)
FAIL: gdb.base/catch-fork-kill.exp: fork-kind=vfork: exit-kind=kill: vfork: kill parent (timeout)

The test constructs fake DWARF info for a C structure involving bitfields.
DWARF bitfields are always counted from LSB, while the order in which
bitfields are allocated in a C struct depends on the target endianness -
thus the generated DWARF marks different bitfields as unavailable when
target is big endian. Accordingly, we need different expected outputs.

A relatively recent patch support for explicit locations, and part
of that patch cleaned up the way we parse breakpoint locations.
Unfortunatly, a small regression crept in for "*<EXPR>" breakpoint
locations. In particular, on PIE programs, one can see the issue by
doing the following, with any program:
(gdb) b *main
Breakpoint 1 at 0x51a: file hello.c, line 3.
(gdb) run

Error in re-setting breakpoint 1: Warning:

Just for the record, this regression was introduced by:
commit a06efdd6ef
Date: Tue Aug 11 17:09:35 2015 -0700
Subject: Explicit locations: introduce address locations
What happens is that the patch makes the implicit assumption that
the address computed the first time is static, as if it was designed
to only support litteral expressions (Eg. "*0x1234"). This allows
the shortcut of not re-computing the breakpoint location's address
when re-setting breakpoints.
However, this does not work in general, as demonstrated in the example
above.
This patch plugs that hole simply by saving the original expression
used to compute the address as part of the address location, so as
to then re-evaluate that expression during breakpoint re-set.

The lambda function used to sort the enumerator list does not work
properly. This list consists of tuples, (enum label, enum value). The
key function returns x.enumval. enumval not being defined for a tuple,
we see this exception in the test log:
Python Exception <class 'AttributeError'> 'tuple' object has no attribute 'enumval'
The function should return the second item of the tuple, which is the
enumval.
The pretty-printer still worked mostly correctly, except that the
enumeration values were not sorted. The test still passed because the
enumeration values are already sorted where they are defined. The test
also passed despite the exception being printed, because the right output
was printed after the exception:
print (enum flag_enum) (FLAG_1)
Python Exception <type 'exceptions.AttributeError'> 'tuple' objecthas no attribute 'enumval':M
$7 = 0x1 [FLAG_1]
(gdb) PASS: gdb.python/py-pp-maint.exp: print FLAG_1
New in v2:
- Improved test case, I stole Pedro's example directly. It verifies
that the sorting of enumerators by value works, by checking that
printing FOO_MASK appears as FOO_1 | FOO_2 | FOO_3.
I noticed that I could change the regexps to almost anything and the
tests would still pass. I think it was because of the | in there. I
made them more robust by using string_to_regexp. I used curly braces
{ } instead of quoting marks " " for strings, so that I could use
square brackets [ ] in them without having to escape them all. I also
removed the "message" part of the tests, since they are redundant with
the command, and it's just more maintenance to have to update them.

error/exception, the runtest command will still have a return code of 0
(success). However, if a test (or the environment) is broken and does
not work properly, it should be considered as failed so that we can
notice it and fix it.
Passing the --status flag to runtest will make it return an error if one
of the test it runs ends up with an uncaught error.
gdb/testsuite/ChangeLog:
* Makefile.in (check-single): Pass --status to runtest.
(check/%.exp): Likewise.
When using the check-parallel target, the return code of make is always 0,
regardless of test results. This patch makes it return the same code as
the "make do-check-parallel" sub-command. So if there is a FAIL somewhere,
non-zero will be returned by make.
For the sake of example, I introduced a failure in gdb.base/break.exp.
$ make check-single TESTS="gdb.base/break.exp gdb.python/py-value.exp" && echo 'Success :D' || echo 'Fail :('
...
FAIL: gdb.base/break.exp: allo
...
Fail :(
I think the parallel run should do the same. Currently:
$ make check-parallel TESTS="gdb.base/break.exp gdb.python/py-value.exp" && echo 'Success :D' || echo 'Fail :('
...
FAIL: gdb.base/break.exp: allo
...
Success :D
And with the patch (no big surprises there):
$ make check-parallel TESTS="gdb.base/break.exp gdb.python/py-value.exp" && echo 'Success :D' || echo 'Fail :('
...
FAIL: gdb.base/break.exp: allo
...
Fail :(
What do you think?
gdb/testsuite/ChangeLog:
* Makefile.in (check-parallel): Propagate return code from make
do-check-parallel.
Currently, we always re-set all locations of all breakpoints. This
commit makes us re-set only locations of the current program space.
If we loaded symbols to a program space (e.g., "file" command or some
shared library was loaded), GDB must run through all breakpoints and
determine if any new locations need to be added to the breakpoint.
However, there's no reason to recreate locations for _other_ program
spaces, as those haven't changed.
Similarly, when we create a new inferior, through e.g., a fork, GDB
must run through all breakpoints and determine if any new locations
need to be added to the breakpoint. There's no reason to destroy the
locations of the parent inferior and other inferiors. We know those
won't change.
In addition to being inneficient, resetting breakpoints of inferiors
that are currently running is problematic, because:
- some targets can't read memory while the inferior is running.
- the inferior might exit while we're re-setting its breakpoints,
which may confuse prologue skipping.
I went through all the places where we call breakpoint_re_set, and it
seems to me that all can be changed to only re-set locations of the
current program space.
The patch that reversed threads order in "info threads" etc. happened
to make gdb.threads/fork-plus-thread.exp expose this problem when
testing on x86/-m32. The problem was latent and masked out by chance
by the code-cache:
https://sourceware.org/ml/gdb-patches/2016-01/msg00213.html
Tested on x86-64 F20, native (-m64/-m32) and extended-remote
gdbserver.
Fixes the regression discussed in the url above with --target_board=unix/-m32:
-FAIL: gdb.threads/fork-plus-threads.exp: detach-on-fork=off: inferior 1 exited
+PASS: gdb.threads/fork-plus-threads.exp: detach-on-fork=off: inferior 1 exited
-FAIL: gdb.threads/fork-plus-threads.exp: detach-on-fork=off: no threads left (timeout)
-FAIL: gdb.threads/fork-plus-threads.exp: detach-on-fork=off: only inferior 1 left (the program exited)
+PASS: gdb.threads/fork-plus-threads.exp: detach-on-fork=off: no threads left
+PASS: gdb.threads/fork-plus-threads.exp: detach-on-fork=off: only inferior 1 left

This is fallout from f303dbd60d.
The testcases themselves are single-threaded, but they load the IPA library,
which injects a thread in the inferior - making them multithreaded.

This commit changes GDB like this:
- Program received signal SIGINT, Interrupt.
+ Thread 1 "main" received signal SIGINT, Interrupt.
- Breakpoint 1 at 0x40087a: file threads.c, line 87.
+ Thread 3 "bar" hit Breakpoint 1 at 0x40087a: file threads.c, line 87.
... once the program goes multi-threaded. Until GDB sees a second
thread spawn, the output is still the same as before, per the
discussion back in 2012:
https://www.sourceware.org/ml/gdb/2012-11/msg00010.html
This helps non-stop mode, where you can't easily tell which thread hit
a breakpoint or received a signal:
(gdb) info threads

The best the user can do is run "info threads" and try to figure
things out.
It actually also affects all-stop mode, in case of "handle SIG print
nostop":
...
Program received signal SIGUSR1, User defined signal 1.
Program received signal SIGUSR1, User defined signal 1.
Program received signal SIGUSR1, User defined signal 1.
Program received signal SIGUSR1, User defined signal 1.
...
The above doesn't give any clue that these were different threads
getting the SIGUSR1 signal.
I initially thought of lowercasing "breakpoint" in
"Thread 3 hit Breakpoint 1"
but then after trying it I realized that leaving "Breakpoint"
uppercase helps the eye quickly find the relevant information. It's
also easier to implement not showing anything about threads until the
program goes multi-threaded this way.

This commit changes GDB to track thread numbers per-inferior. Then,
if you're debugging multiple inferiors, GDB displays
"inferior-num.thread-num" instead of just "thread-num" whenever it
needs to display a thread:
(gdb) info inferiors

* 2 process 6037 /home/pedro/gdb/tests/threads

(gdb)
...
etc.
You can still use "thread NUM", in which case GDB infers you're
referring to thread NUM of the current inferior.
The $_thread convenience var and Python's InferiorThread.num attribute
are remapped to the new per-inferior thread number. It's a backward
compatibility break, but since it only matters when debugging multiple
inferiors, I think it's worth doing.
Because MI thread IDs need to be a single integer, we keep giving
threads a global identifier, _in addition_ to the per-inferior number,
and make MI always refer to the global thread IDs. IOW, nothing
changes from a MI frontend's perspective.
Similarly, since Python's Breakpoint.thread and Guile's
breakpoint-thread/set-breakpoint-thread breakpoint methods need to
work with integers, those are adjusted to work with global thread IDs
too. Follow up patches will provide convenient means to access
threads' global IDs.
To avoid potencially confusing users (which also avoids updating much
of the testsuite), if there's only one inferior and its ID is "1",
IOW, the user hasn't done anything multi-process/inferior related,
then the "INF." part of thread IDs is not shown. E.g,.:
(gdb) info inferiors

This commit merges both the registers and $_siginfo "thread
running/executing" checks into a single function.
Accessing $_siginfo from a "catch signal" breakpoint condition doesn't
work. The condition always fails with "Selected thread is running":
(gdb) catch signal
Catchpoint 3 (standard signals)
(gdb)
condition $bpnum $_siginfo.si_signo == 5
(gdb) continue
Continuing.
Error in testing breakpoint condition:
Selected thread is running.
Catchpoint 3 (signal SIGUSR1), 0x0000003615e35877 in __GI_raise (sig=10) at ../nptl/sysdeps/unix/sysv/linux/raise.c:56
56 return INLINE_SYSCALL (tgkill, 3, pid, selftid, sig);
(gdb)
When accessing the $_siginfo object, we check whether the thread is
marked running (external/public) state and refuse the access if so.
This is so "print $_siginfo" at the prompt fails nicelly when the
current thread is running. While evaluating breakpoint conditionals,
we haven't decided yet whether the thread is going to stop, so
is_running still returns true, and we thus always error out.
Evaluating an expression that requires registers access is really
conceptually the same -- we could think of $_siginfo as a pseudo
register. However, in that case we check whether the thread is marked
executing (internal/private state), not running (external/public
state). Changing the $_siginfo validation to check is_executing as
well fixes the bug in question.
Note that checking is_executing is not fully correct, not even for
registers. See PR 19389. However, I think this is the lesser of two
evils and ends up as an improvement. We at least now have a single
place to fix.
Tested on x86_64 GNU/Linux.

There are a few errors when trying to run the performance testsuite with
Python 3. This commit fixes them.
In Python 2, it was possible to use relative imports (importing a module
relative to the current one). In Python 3 it isn't. So I use
absolute_import from the __future__ module, which allows Python 2 to
behave like Python 3, and use the Python 3 syntax.
In Python 3, dict.iterkeys doesn't exist anymore. Using dict.keys is a
good compromise in this case.
gdb/testsuite/ChangeLog:
* gdb.perf/lib/perftest/perftest.py: Change relative imports to
absolute.
(SingleStatisticTestResult.report): Use dict.keys instead of
dict.iterkeys.
In btrace_pt_readmem_callback, we read memory inside TRY/CATCH and return in
case of an error return value. This corrupts the cleanup chain, which
eventually results in a SEGV when doing or discarding cleanups later on.

gdb/testsuite/
* lib/gdb.exp (gdb_test): Update comments to clarify that the
PATTERN argument is optional.
The current approach when building Ada programs for testing is
based on the use of a project file (testsuite/gdb.ada/gnat_ada.gpr).
To do that, we pass a number of additional arguments to target_compile,
one of them being the project file (via "-P/path/to/gnat_ada.gpr").
This used to work well-enough, but AdaCore is currently working towards
removing project-file support from gnatmake (the prefered tool for
using project files is gprbuild). So, we need to either switch
the compilation to gprbuild, or stop using project files.
First, using gprbuild is not always what users will be using to
build their applications. So having the option of using gnatmake
provides more flexibility towards exactly reproducing past bugs.
If we ever need a testcase that requires the use of gprbuild, then
I believe support for a new target needs to be added to dejagnu's
target_compile.
Also, the only real reason behind using a project file in the first
place is that we wanted to make it easy to specify the directory
where all compilation artifacts get stored. This is a consequence
of the organization choice we made for gdb.ada to keep each testcase
well organized. It is very easy to achieve that goal without using
project files.
This is therefore what this patch does: It change gdb_compile_ada
to build any program using gnatmake without using a project file
(by temporarily changing the current working directory).
There is a small (beneficial) side-effect; in the situation where
GDB is built in-tree, gnatmake is called as...
% gnatmake [...] unit.adb
... which means that the debugging info in unit.o will say contain
a filename whose name is 'unit.adb', rather than '/path/to/unit.adb'.
This also better matches what users might typically do. But the side-
effect is that the unit name in the GDB output is not always a full
path. This patch tweaks a couple of testcases to make the path part
optional.

This patch removes cases from the testsuite that are not posssibly used. The
messages "Catch of * not yet implemented" were removed here:

This patch removes all special cases for HP-UX, for which support has
been removed earlier, that I found in the testsuite. Note that the hppa
architecture != HP-UX, since other OSes can run on hppa, so I tried to
leave everything that is not HP-UX specific.
Two complete tests were completely HP-UX specific, so I removed them.
I ran the testsuite on Linux x86-64, native and native-gdbserver, and
noticed no regressions.

This patch adds some documentation to gdb_compile. It describes the
various options that can influence compilation. Most of them are
handled by DejaGnu, but are not really documented anywhere, so I think
it's good to have a quick reference. Not all possible options are
described, that would add way to much noise. I chose those that I think
are relevant in the context of writing a test case.

[PATCH] Remove support for LinuxThreads and vendor 2.4 kernels w/ backported NPTL
https://sourceware.org/ml/gdb-patches/2015-12/msg00214.html
We try to avoid using libthread_db.so to list threads in the inferior
when debugging live processes, but the code that decides whether to
use it decides incorrectly if you have more than one inferior, and the
current inferior doesn't have execution yet. The result is visible
as:
(gdb) add-inferior
Added inferior 2
(gdb) inferior 2
[Switching to inferior 2 [<null>] (<noexec>)]
(gdb) info inferiors
Num Description Executable
1 process 15397 /home/pedro/gdb/tests/threads
* 2 <null>
(gdb) info threads
Cannot find new threads: generic error
(gdb)
Fix this by checking whether each inferior has execution rather than
just the current inferior.
By moving the core updating to linux-nat.c's update_thread_list
implementation, this also ends up fixing the
lwp-last-seen-running-on-core updating in the case we're debugging a
program that uses raw clone rather than pthreads, as linux-thread-db.c
isn't pushed in the target stack in that scenario.
Tested on x86_64 Fedora 20.

This patch updates tests for fork and exec events in target remote mode.
In the majority of cases this was a simple matter of removing some code
that disabled the test for target remote. In a few cases the test needed
to be disabled; in those cases the gdb_protocol was checked instead of
using the [is_remote target] etc.
In a couple of cases we needed to use clean_restart, since target remote
doesn't support the run command, and in one case we had to modify an expect
expression to allow for a "multiprocess-style" ptid.
Tested with the patch that implemented target remote mode fork and exec
event support.

When a a user uses 'list +' to list forward through a source file they
eventually reach the end of the source file. Subsequent uses of 'list
+' result in an error message like this, that let the user know they are
at the end of the source file:
Line number XXX out of range; FILENAME has YYY lines.
Compare this to the current behaviour of 'list -' which lists backwards
through a source file. When the user reaches the beginning of the
source file, subsequent uses of 'list -' result in the command silently
returning. This can be confusing if the previous uses of 'list -' have
scrolled off the users display, the user receives no reminder that the
have already seen the start of the file.
After this commit a use of 'list -' when the user has already seen the
start of a file will receive the following error:
Already at the start of FILENAME.

* cli/cli-cmds.c (list_command): Add an error when trying to use

There is an inconsistency with the handling of the special +/- arguments
to the list command.
For the very first time that list is used (after the inferior has
changed locations) then only the first character of the argument string
is checked, so 'list +BLAH' will operate as 'list +' and 'list -----FOO'
will operate as 'list -'. This compares to each subsequent use of list,
where the whole argument string is checked, so 'list +BLAH' will try to
list lines of code around the function '+BLAH'.
This commit unifies the behaviour so that the whole argument string is
checked, in order to list the next 10, or previous 10 lines from a file
only 'list +' and 'list -' are now valid.
gdb/ChangeLog:
* cli/cli-cmds.c (list_command): Check that the argument string is
a single character, either '+' or '-'.

I think these references to "spaces" came from the original multi-exec

Several of the gdb.multi tests use the "nowarnings" option to suppress
warnings. The warnings in question all come from missing headers,
like e.g.:
src/gdb/testsuite/gdb.multi/multi-arch-exec.c:28:3: warning: incompatible implicit declaration of built-in function 'exit' [enabled by default]
exit (1);
^
There's no point in trying to avoid to include standard headers. In
gdb.base/hangout.c's case, it's even dangerous, as that file calls
printf. In order to compile a call to a variatic function correctly,
a declaration must be visible.

It is possible to use multiple base addresses within a single address
range series, within the .debug_ranges section. The following is a
simplified example for 32-bit addresses:
.section ".debug_ranges"
.4byte 0xffffffff
.4byte BASE_1
.4byte START_OFFSET_1
.4byte END_OFFSET_1
.4byte START_OFFSET_2
.4byte END_OFFSET_2
.4byte 0xffffffff
.4byte BASE_2
.4byte START_OFFSET_3
.4byte END_OFFSET_3
.4byte 0
.4byte 0
In this example START/END 1 and 2 are relative to BASE_1, while
START/END 3 are relative to BASE_2.
Currently gdb does not correctly parse this DWARF, resulting in
corrupted address range information. This commit fixes this issue, and
adds a new test to cover this case.
In order to support testing of this feature extensions were made to the
testsuite dwarf assembler, additional functionality was added to the
.debug_line generation function, and a new function for generating the
.debug_ranges section was added.
