It also changes evpy_emit_event not to steal a reference to its

it's also a reasonable cleanup in its own right. While doing this I
realized that evpy_emit_event should not be calling gdbpy_print_stack
(all the outermost callers do this if needed), so I removed this as
well.

This patch introduces class gdbpy_ref, which is a sort of smart
pointer that owns a single Python reference to a PyObject. This class
acts a bit like unique_ptr, but also a bit like shared_ptr (in that
copies do what you might expect); I considered going solely with
unique_ptr but it seemed quite strange to have a unique_ptr that
actually manages a shared resource.
Subsequent patches use this new class to simplify logic in the Python
layer.

The help message of the "frame" command states that nothing is printed

today).

#1 0x00000000004006e0 in foo (v=17) at test.c:13

This patch simply removes that bit from the help message. I didn't find
anything corresponding to this in the documentation that needs to be
fixed.
The behavior change corresponding to this documentation change was done
in commit b00771232f.
gdb/ChangeLog:
* stack.c (_initialize_stack): Update "frame" command help message.
Before this patch, some functions would read the inferior memory with
(*the_target)->read_memory, which returns the raw memory, rather than the
shadowed memory.
This is wrong since these functions do not expect to read a breakpoint
instruction and can lead to invalid behavior.
Use of raw memory in get_next_pcs_read_memory_unsigned_integer for example
could lead to get_next_pc returning an invalid pc.
Here's how this would happen:
In non-stop:
the user issues:
thread 1
step&
thread 2
step&
thread 3
step&
In a similar way as non-stop-fair-events.exp (threads are looping).
GDBServer:
linux_resume is called
GDBServer has pending events,
threads are not resumed and single-step breakpoint for thread 1 not installed.
linux_wait_1 is called with a pending event on thread 2 at pc A
GDBServer handles the event and calls proceed_all_lwps
This calls proceed_one_lwp and installs single-step breakpoints on all
the threads that need one.
Now since thread 1 needs to install a single-step breakpoint and is at pc B
(different than thread 2), a step-over is not initiated and get_next_pc
is called to figure out the next instruction from pc B.
However it may just be that thread 3 as a single step breakpoint at pc
B. And thus get_next_pc fails.
This situation is tested with non-stop-fair-events.exp.
In other words, single-step breakpoints are installed in proceed_one_lwp
for each thread. GDBserver proceeds two threads for resume_step, as
requested by GDB, and the thread proceeded later may see the single-step
breakpoints installed for the thread proceeded just now.
Tested on gdbserver-native/-m{thumb,arm} no regressions.

* linux-aarch32-low.c (arm_breakpoint_kind_from_pc): Use
target_read_memory.
* linux-arm-low.c (get_next_pcs_read_memory_unsigned_integer): Likewise.

While casting works as expected with expression debugging turned off,
this seems to be an indication that the D language parser function is
doing something wrong in the building of the expression.
Without changing the grammar, using UNOP_CAST_TYPE is the right thing to
do here, as the TypeExp handler has already wrapped the type around a
pair of OP_TYPE opcodes.

Nowadays, GDB propagates C++ exceptions across readline using
setjmp/longjmp 89525768cd ("Propagate GDB/C++ exceptions across
readline using sj/lj-based TRY/CATCH") because DWARF-based unwinding
can't cross C functions compiled without -fexceptions (see details
from the commit above).
Unfortunately, toolchains that use SjLj-based C++ exceptions got
broken with that fix, because _Unwind_SjLj_Unregister, which is put at
the exit of a function, is not executed due to the longjmp added by
that commit.

Fix this by making the functions involved in setjmp/longjmp as
noexcept, so that the compiler knows it doesn't need to emit the
_Unwind_SjLj_Register / _Unwind_SjLj_Unregister calls for C++

Since GDB has switched to C++ but the file names are still .c emacs does

https://sourceware.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=19797
And hopefully helps catch others in the future.
This started out as a test that simply did,
gdb -ex "print 1.0L"
to exercise #1 above.
Then to cover both 32-bit target / 64-bit host and the converse, I
thought of having the testcase print the floats twice, once with the
architecture set to "i386" and then to "i386:x86-64". This way it
wouldn't matter whether gdb was built as 32-bit or a 64-bit program.
Then I thought that other archs might have similar host/target
floatformat conversion issues as well. Instead of hardcoding some
architectures in the test file, I thought we could just iterate over
all bfd architectures and OS ABIs supported by the gdb build being
tested. This is what then exposed all the other problems listed
above...
With an --enable-targets=all, this exercises over 14 thousand
combinations. If left in a single test file, it all consistenly runs
in under a minute on my machine (An Intel i7-4810MQ @ 2.8 MHZ running
Fedora 23). Split in 8 chunks, as in this commit, it runs in around
25 seconds, with make -j8.
To avoid flooding the gdb.sum file, it avoids calling "pass" on each
tested combination/iteration. I'm explicitly not implementing that by
passing an empty message to gdb_test / gdb_test_multiple, because I
still want a FAIL to be logged in gdb.sum. So instead this puts the
internal passes in the gdb.log file, only, prefixed "IPASS:", for
internal pass. TBC, if some iteration fails, it'll still show up as
FAIL in gdb.sum. If this is an approach that takes on, I can see us
extending the common bits to support it for all testcases.

gdb.perf/skip-prologue.exp is intended to measure the performance of

However, if program is compiled with debug info, GDB is smart to
skip prologue by line table from debug info, so prologue analysis
is not exercised at all.

debug information, otherwise, it is compiled without debug
information.

The Mach/Hurd RPCs return kern_return_t values, for which, upon assigning them
to an error_t variable, GCC in C++ mode tells us "error: invalid conversion
from 'kern_return_t {aka int}' to 'error_t {aka __error_t_codes}'". Instead of

This patch adds asserts where the value's lval must be lval_register.
This triggers an error in frame_register_unwind because VALUE_REGNUM
is used but value's lval is not lval_register.
This also reveals a design issue in frame_register_unwind, that is
arguments addrp and realnump are mutually exclusive, we either use
addrp (for lval_memory), or use realnump (for lval_register). This
can be done in a separate patch.

New in v2:
- A few adjustments / simplifications were possible now that we
require C++11:
. Use std::unique_ptr to make the user_args_stack std::vector own
its elements:
static std::vector<std::unique_ptr<user_args>> user_args_stack;
. use vector::emplace_back to construct elements directly in the
corresponding vectors.
. use std::to_string instead of adding a gdb::to_string
replacement.
- Now includes a test.
Docs/NEWS are unchanged from v1 and have already been approved.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
I recently wrote a user-defined command that could benefit from
supporting an unlimited number of arguments:
http://palves.net/list-active-signal-handlers-with-gdb/
E.g., 'info signal-dispositions 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 11'
However, we currently only support up to 10 arguments passed to
user-defined commands ($arg0..$arg9).
I can't find a good reason for that, other than "old code with hard
coded limits". This patch removes that limit and modernizes the code
along the way:
- Makes the user_args struct a real C++ class that uses std::vector
for storage.
- Removes the "next" pointer from within user_args and uses a
std::vector to maintain a stack instead.
- Adds a new RAII-based scoped_user_args_level class to help
push/pop user args in the stack instead of using a cleanup.

We're missing a test that makes sure that arguments to user-defined

It'd be handy to be able to iterate over command arguments in
user-defined commands, in order to support optional arguments
($arg0..$argN).
I thought I could make it work with "eval", but alas, it doesn't work
currently. E.g., with:
define test
set $i = 0
while $i < $argc
eval "print $arg%d", $i
set $i = $i + 1
end
end
we get:
(gdb) test 1
$1 = void
(gdb) test 1 2 3
$2 = void
$3 = void
$4 = void
(gdb)
The problem is that "eval" doesn't do user-defined command arguments
substitution after expanding its own argument. This patch fixes that,
which makes the example above work:
(gdb) test 1
$1 = 1
(gdb) test 1 2 3
$2 = 1
$3 = 2
$4 = 3
(gdb)
New test included, similar the above, but also exercises expanding
$argc.
I think this is likely to simplify many scripts out there, so I'm
adding an example to the manual and mentioning it in NEWS as well.

This patch adds support for DW_AT_main_subprogram.
This is PR symtab/16264.
DW_AT_main_subprogram is used to mark a program's entry point. GCC
can emit this, and I hope to change the Rust compiler to emit it as
well.
GDB already supports an older, pre-DWARF 4 convention adopted by
FORTRAN compilers, namely to emit DW_AT_calling_convention for the
"main" function. However, I think this support in GDB had a small
bug, in that it seems to rely on the DW_AT_name being read before
DW_AT_calling_convention. This patch fixes this as well.
Built and regtested on x86-64 Fedora 24 and the buildbot. New test
case included.

This patch teaches GDB AArch64 backend to recognize STR instructions
in prologue, like 'str x19, [sp, #-48]!' or 'str w0, [sp, #44]'.
The unit test is added too.

* aarch64-tdep.c (aarch64_analyze_prologue): Recognize STR
instruction.
(aarch64_analyze_prologue_test): More tests.
We don't have an effective way to test prologue analyzer which is
highly dependent on instruction patterns in prologue generated by
compiler. GDB prologue analyzer may not handle the new sequences
generated by new compiler, or may still handle some sequences that
generated by very old compilers which are no longer used. The
former is a functionality issue, while the latter is a maintenance
issue.
The input and output of prologue analyzer is quite clear, so it
fits for unit test. The input is series of instructions, and the
output are 1) where prologue end, 2) where registers are saved.
In aarch64, they are represented in 'struct aarch64_prologue_cache'.
This patch refactors aarch64_analyze_prologue so it can read
instructions from either real target or test harness. In unit
test aarch64_analyze_prologue_test, aarch64_analyze_prologue gets
instructions we prepared in the test, as the input of prologue
analyzer. Then, we checked various fields in
'struct aarch64_prologue_cache'.

This fixes a few cases where the testcase is explicitly handling timeouts

This patch makes a class out of the ui_out_table structure, the
structure responsible for managing the generation of an UI table.
To simplify the ui_out_table object, I changed it so that it can only be
used for generating a single object. Instead of clearing the header
list when starting a new table, we an ui_out_table when starting a
table and delete it when we're done. Therefore, the checks:
if (uiout->table->flag)
if (!uiout->table->flag)
are respectively replaced with
if (uiout->table != nullptr)
if (uiout->table == nullptr)
Note: I removed the check at the beginning of ui_out_begin, because
there is an equivalent check at the beginning of verify_field.
New in v2:
- use "enum class" for ui_out_table::state and update references.
gdb/ChangeLog:
* ui-out.c (enum ui_out_table_state): Move to class

(verify_field): Update table checks.
(ui_out_query_field): Update table check, replace code with call

(ui_out_new): Remove table initialization code.
This patch is just a little cleanup, it replaces the body_flag field of
ui_out_table with an enum. It expresses more explicitly the
intent of the field (check that state == TABLE_STATE_HEADERS conveys
more what we want to do than checking for !body_flag).
New in v2:
- Remove unnecessary ui_out_table_state::.
gdb/ChangeLog:
* ui-out.c (enum ui_out_table_state): New enum.
(struct ui_out_table) <body_flag>: Remove field.
<state>: New field.
(ui_out_table_begin): Replace usages of body_flag with state.

(ui_out_table_end): Likewise.
(ui_out_table_header): Likewise.
(ui_out_begin): Likewise.
(verify_field): Likewise.
(ui_out_new): Likewise.
Now that we use a vector to store the levels, we don't have to keep a
separate level field in ui_out to keep track of the current level. We
can efficiently derive it from the vector size. That causes a little
change in the meaning of the level, as in they are now 1-based instead
of 0-based (the initial level has the "id" 1 now), but it shouldn't
change anything in the behavior.
Additionally, push_level and pop_level don't really need to return the
new level, making them return void simplifies the code a bit.
Finally, the ui_out_begin/ui_out_end callbacks in the ui_out_impl
interface don't need to be passed the level, it's never actually used.
New in v2:
- Remove or update stale comments.
gdb/ChangeLog:

This patch makes ui_out_hdr (the object that represents an ui-out table

(class ui_out_hdr): ... this.
(append_header_to_list): Update.
(get_next_header): Update.
(ui_out_query_field): Update.
Instead of keeping pointers to first, last and current ui_out_hdr in
ui_out_table, we can use an std::vector and an iterator. Direct random
access of to vector helps make get_next_header a bit nicer by avoiding
iterating on all the headers. append_header_to_list is also a bit
simpler.
Also, using unique_ptr inside the vector allows expressing the ownership
of the ui_out_hdr objects by the ui_out_table object, and it simplifies
the destruction.

The following patches introduce C++ vectors and strings as fields of the

Since we don't use suffix rules nor implicit rules in gdb, we can
disable them. The advantage is a slightly faster make [1].
Here are some numbers about the speedup. I ran this on my trusty old
Intel Q6600, so the time numbers are probably higher than what you'd get
on any recent hardware. I ran "make" in the gdb/ directory of an
already built repository (configured with --enable-targets=all). I
recorded the time of execution (average of 5). I then ran "make -d" and
recorded the number of printed lines, which gives a rough idea of the
number of operations done.
I compared the following configurations, to see the impact of both the
empty .SUFFIXES target and the empty pattern rules, as well as running
"make -r", which can be considered the "ideal" case.
A - baseline
B - baseline + .SUFFIXES
C - baseline + pattern rules
D - baseline + .SUFFIXES + pattern rules
E - baseline + make -r
config | time (s) | "make -d"
-----------------------------
A | 5.74 | 2396643
B | 1.19 | 298469
C | 2.81 | 1266573
D | 1.13 | 245489
E | 1.01 | 163914
We can see that the empty .SUFFIXES target has a bigger impact than the
empty pattern rules, but still it doesn't hurt to disable the implicit
pattern rules as well.
There are still some mentions of implicit rules I can't get rid of in
the "make -d" output. For example, it's trying to build .c files from
.w files:
Looking for an implicit rule for '/home/simark/src/binutils-gdb/gdb/infrun.c'.
Trying pattern rule with stem 'infrun'.
Trying implicit prerequisite '/home/simark/src/binutils-gdb/gdb/infrun.w'.
and trying to build Makefile.in from a bunch of extensions:
Looking for an implicit rule for 'Makefile.in'.
Trying pattern rule with stem 'Makefile.in'.
Trying implicit prerequisite 'Makefile.in.o'.
Trying pattern rule with stem 'Makefile.in'.
Trying implicit prerequisite 'Makefile.in.c'.
Trying pattern rule with stem 'Makefile.in'.
Trying implicit prerequisite 'Makefile.in.cc'.
... many more ...
If somebody knows how to disable them, we can do it, but at this point
the returns are minimal, so it is not that important.
I verified that both in-tree and out-of-tree builds work.
[1] Switching from explicit rules to pattern rules for files in
subdirectories actually made it slower, so this is kind of a way to
redeem myself. But it the end it's faster than it was previously,
so it was all worth it. :)

Nowadays, we set computed value's frame id, which is a misuse to me.
The computed value itself doesn't care about frame id, but function
value_computed_funcs (val)->read (or read_pieced_value) cares about
which frame the register is relative to, so 'struct piece_closure' is
a better place to fit frame id.

The function copy_bitwise used for copying DWARF pieces can potentially
be invoked for large chunks of data. For instance, consider a large
struct one of whose members is currently located in a register. In this
case copy_bitwise would still copy the data bitwise in a loop, which is
much slower than necessary.
This change uses memcpy for the large part instead, if possible.
gdb/ChangeLog:
* dwarf2loc.c (copy_bitwise): Use memcpy for the middle part, if
it is byte-aligned.
This adds a unit test for the copy_bitwise function in dwarf2loc.c.
With the old (broken) version of copy_bitwise this test would generate
the following failure message:
(gdb) maintenance selftest
Self test failed: copy_bitwise 11000000 != 10000000 (7+2 -> 0)
gdb/ChangeLog:

When the user writes or reads a variable whose location is described
with DWARF pieces (DW_OP_piece or DW_OP_bit_piece), GDB's helper
function copy_bitwise is invoked for each piece. The implementation of
this function has a bug that may result in a corrupted copy, depending
on alignment and bit size. (Full-byte copies are not affected.)
This rewrites copy_bitwise, replacing its algorithm by a fixed version,
and adding an appropriate test case. Without the fix the new test case
fails, e.g.:
print def_t
$2 = {a = 0, b = 4177919}
(gdb) FAIL: gdb.dwarf2/nonvar-access.exp: print def_t
Written in binary, the wrong result above looks like this:
01111111011111111111111
Which means that two zero bits have sneaked into the copy of the
original all-one bit pattern. The test uses this simple all-one value
in order to avoid another GDB bug that causes the DWARF piece of a
DW_OP_stack_value to be taken from the wrong end on big-endian
architectures.

The DW_AT_data_bit_offset attribute was introduced by DWARF V4 and
allows specifying the offset of a data member within its containing
entity. But although the new attribute was intended to replace
DW_AT_bit_offset for this purpose, GDB ignores it, and thus GCC still
emits DW_AT_bit_offset instead. See also
https://gcc.gnu.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=71669.

This patch fixes a few problems with GDB's time handling.
#1 - It avoids problems with gnulib's C++ namespace support
On MinGW, the struct timeval that should be passed to gnulib's
gettimeofday replacement is incompatible with libiberty's
timeval_sub/timeval_add. That's because gnulib also replaces "struct
timeval" with its own definition, while libiberty expects the
system's.
E.g., in code like this:
gettimeofday (&prompt_ended, NULL);
timeval_sub (&prompt_delta, &prompt_ended, &prompt_started);
timeval_add (&prompt_for_continue_wait_time,
&prompt_for_continue_wait_time, &prompt_delta);
That's currently handled in gdb by not using gnulib's gettimeofday at
all (see common/gdb_sys_time.h), but that #undef hack won't work with
if/when we enable gnulib's C++ namespace support, because that mode
adds compile time warnings for uses of ::gettimeofday, which are hard
errors with -Werror.
#2 - But there's an elephant in the room: gettimeofday is not monotonic...
We're using it to:
a) check how long functions take, for performance analysis
b) compute when in the future to fire events in the event-loop
c) print debug timestamps
But that's exactly what gettimeofday is NOT meant for. Straight from
the man page:
~~~
The time returned by gettimeofday() is affected by
discontinuous jumps in the system time (e.g., if the system
administrator manually changes the system time). If you need a
monotonically increasing clock, see clock_gettime(2).
~~~
std::chrono (part of the C++11 standard library) has a monotonic clock
exactly for such purposes (std::chrono::steady_clock). This commit
switches to use that instead of gettimeofday, fixing all the issues
mentioned above.

gdb/gdbserver/ChangeLog:
* Makefile.in: Fix whitespace formatting.
I find the big file lists in the Makefiles a bit ugly and not very
practical. Since there are multiple filenames on each line (as much as
fits in 80 columns), it's not easy to add, remove or change a name in
the middle. As a result, we have a mix of long and short lines in no
particular order (ALL_TARGET_OBS is a good example).
I therefore suggest flattening the lists (one name per line) and keeping
them in alphabetical order. The diffs will be much clearer and merge
conflicts will be easier to resolve.
A nice (IMO) side-effect I observed is that the files are compiled
alphabetically by make, so it gives a rough idea of the progress of the
build.
I added a comment in gdb/Makefile.in to mention to keep the file lists
ordered, and gave the general guidelines on what order to respect. I
added a comment in other Makefiles which refers to gdb/Makefile.in, to
avoid duplication.
Running the patch through the buildbot found that gdb.base/default.exp
started to fail. The languages in the error message shown when typing
"set language" have changed order. We could probably improve gdb so
that it prints them in a stable order, regardless of the order of the
object list passed to the linked, but just fixing the test is easier for
now.
New in v2:
- Change ordering style, directories go at the end.
- Cleanup gdbserver's and data-directory's Makefile as well.
- Add comments at top of Makefiles about the ordering.
- Remove wrong trailing backslahes.
- Fix test gdb.base/default.exp.

We renamed VALUE_FRAME_ID to VALUE_NEXT_FRAME_ID recently,
https://sourceware.org/ml/gdb-patches/2016-11/msg00018.html
and we should use VALUE_NEXT_FRAME_ID in value_from_component
too.

* value.c (value_from_component): Use VALUE_NEXT_FRAME_ID
instead of VALUE_FROM_ID.
A little oversight from my part, it caused the Makefile not to track
the dependencies from mi/*.c files.
gdb/ChangeLog:
* Makefile.in (%o: $(srcdir)/mi/%.c): Add missing POSTCOMPILE
step.
Nowadays, we create a value of subobject in pretty printer with 'address'
being used,
value = value_from_contents_and_address (type, valaddr + embedded_offset,
address + embedded_offset);
set_value_component_location (value, val);
/* set_value_component_location resets the address, so we may
need to set it again. */
if (VALUE_LVAL (value) != lval_internalvar
&& VALUE_LVAL (value) != lval_internalvar_component
&& VALUE_LVAL (value) != lval_computed)
set_value_address (value, address + embedded_offset);
value_from_contents_and_address creates a value from memory, but the
value we are pretty-printing may not from memory at all.
Instead of using value_from_contents_and_address, we create a value
of subobject with the same location as object's but different offset.
We avoid using address in this way. As a result, parameter 'address'
in apply_val_pretty_printer is no longer needed, we can remove it in
next step.
We've already had the location of the 'whole' value, so it is safe
to assume we can create a value of 'component' or 'suboject' value
at the same location but with different offset.
gdb:
2016-11-21 Yao Qi <yao.qi@linaro.org>
* guile/scm-pretty-print.c (gdbscm_apply_val_pretty_printer):

We shouldn't be using these, since their output goes straight to
stdout, which doesn't allow redirection. So this patch updates
the ARI to detect any such use.
gdb/ChangeLog:
* contrib/ari/gdb_ari.sh: Add detection of printf_vma and
sprintf_vma.
When adding a .c file in subdirectory (e.g. mi/), the current practice
is to add an explicit rule, such as:
mi-cmd-break.o: $(srcdir)/mi/mi-cmd-break.c
$(COMPILE) $(srcdir)/mi/mi-cmd-break.c
$(POSTCOMPILE)
I find it a bit verbose and cumbersome. Since we now require GNU make,
we can change those rules with pattern rules, one for each subdirectory.
For example, the following rule works for all files under mi:
%.o: $(srcdir)/mi/%.c
$(COMPILE) $<
$(POSTCOMPILE)
Those pattern rules assume that the source and target files have the
same stem (foo.c and foo.o). In one case, common-agent.o is generated
from common/agent.c, to avoid a conflict with the agent.o in gdb/. In
this case, I kept the explicit rule, which takes precedence over the
pattern rule. We could also rename common/agent.c to
common/common-agent.c to get rid of the special case and still avoid the
clash, as it is done with common/common-regcache.c, for example.
This strategy was the least intrusive I found, as it only requires
changing the rules, not the target names.
I also considered two other solutions, which I did not like because I
would have had to change target names a bit everywhere.
- Replicate the source directory structure in the build directory,
which would generate common/agent.o from common/agent.c. However,
something was not right with the dependency tracking (the .deps
directory). It's probably not hard to fix, but I did not
investigate further.
- Name the object files after the directory they are in, so that
common/agent.c would generate common_agent.c.
GDBserver can benefit from the same treatment, but I'll do it in another
patch.
Built-tested with --enable-targets=all.
New in v2:
- Regroup pattern rules for .c -> .o compilation in a single place.

As mentioned here [1], suffix rules are obsolete and have been
superseeded with pattern rules. People (myself included, before writing
this patch) are more likely to know what pattern rules are than suffix
rules.
AFAIK, .SUFFIXES targets are only used for those rules, and can be
removed as well.

Since GNU make is now required to build GDB, we can remove everything
that checks whether the current make implemention is the GNU one or
not. I simply removed the @GMAKE_TRUE@ prefixes and removed the whole
lines that were prefixed with @GMAKE_FALSE@.
I removed the code in the configure scripts that set those variables.
I also removed the following bits from the configure scripts:
AC_CHECK_PROGS(MAKE, make): GNU make already defines a MAKE variable
internally to be used when invoking Makefiles recursively. I don't see
this variable being used anywhere else (in scripts for example), so I
think it's safe for removal.
AC_PROG_MAKE_SET: This macro defines a SET_MAKE output variable, which
is meant to be used in Makefiles to define the MAKE variable when
using an implementation of make that doesn't already define it.
Since we are now requiring GNU make, we don't need it anymore.
Plus, I don't see SET_MAKE being used anywhere, so I don't think it
was actually doing anything...

As discussed in [1], it would be benificial for the GDB project to start
requiring GNU make to build its software. It would allow using useful
GNU-specific constructs, such as pattern rules. It would also allow
removing the alternative code paths in the Makefiles (guarded by
GMAKE_TRUE/GMAKE_FALSE), simplifying the Makefile code.

The problem is the '#define mkdir ...'
Fortunately, we can just remove it, since gnulib's sys/stat.h
replacement already takes care of the Windows mkdir prototype quirk:
~~~
/* mingw's _mkdir() function has 1 argument, but we pass 2 arguments.
Additionally, it declares _mkdir (and depending on compile flags, an
alias mkdir), only in the nonstandard includes <direct.h> and <io.h>,
which are included above. */

# if !GNULIB_defined_rpl_mkdir

rpl_mkdir (char const *name, mode_t mode)

}

That's sys_stat.in.h, part of the sys_stat module, which we explictly
pull in nowadays. It wasn't being pulled when this macro was added:

But the mkdir macro had been left behind unnoticed.
gdb/ChangeLog:
2016-11-17 Pedro Alves <palves@redhat.com>
* ctf.c [USE_WIN32API] (mkdir): Delete.
Switching gdb to use gnulib's C++ namespace mode reveals we're calling
malloc instead of xmalloc here:
..../src/gdb/ada-lang.c: In function ‘value* ada_value_primitive_packed_val(value*, const gdb_byte*, long int, int, int, type*)’:
..../src/gdb/ada-lang.c:2592:50: error: call to ‘malloc’ declared with attribute warning: The symbol ::malloc refers to the system function. Use gnulib::malloc instead. [-Werror]
staging = (gdb_byte *) malloc (staging_len);
^
We're unconditionaly using the result afterwards -- so it's not a case
of gracefully handling huge allocations.
Since we want to get rid of all cleanups, fix this by switching to
new[] and unique_ptr<[]> instead, while at it.
Regtested on Fedora 23.
gdb/ChangeLog:
2016-11-16 Pedro Alves <palves@redhat.com>
* ada-lang.c (ada_value_primitive_packed_val): Use unique_ptr and
new gdb_byte[] instead of malloc and cleanups.
I noticed that bfd's printf_vma prints to stdout directly:
bfd-in2.h:202:#define printf_vma(x) fprintf_vma(stdout,x)
This is a bad idea in gdb, where we should use
gdb_stdout/gdb_stderr/gdb_stdlog, etc., to support redirection.
Eliminate uses of sprintf_vma too while at it.
Tested on Fedora 23, w/ gdbserver.

(collection_list::stringify): Use paddress and phex_nz instead of
sprintf_vma. Adjust add_memrange call.
* tracepoint.h (collection_list::add_memrange): Add gdbarch

This patch ensures that the frame id for the current frame is stashed
before that of the previous frame (to the current frame).
First, it should be noted that the frame id for the current frame is
not stashed by get_current_frame(). The current frame's frame id is
lazily computed and stashed via calls to get_frame_id(). However,
it's possible for get_prev_frame() to be called without first stashing
the current frame.
The frame stash is used not only to speed up frame lookups, but
also to detect cycles. When attempting to compute the frame id
for a "previous" frame (in get_prev_frame_if_no_cycle), a cycle
is detected if the computed frame id is already in the stash.
If it should happen that a previous frame id is stashed which should
represent a cycle for the current frame, then an assertion failure
will trigger should get_frame_id() be later called to determine
the frame id for the current frame.
As of late 2016, with the "Tweak meaning of VALUE_FRAME_ID" patch in
place, this actually occurs when running the
gdb.dwarf2/dw2-dup-frame.exp test. While attempting to generate a
backtrace, the python frame filter code is invoked, leading to
frame_info_to_frame_object() (in python/py-frame.c) being called.
That function will potentially call get_prev_frame() before
get_frame_id() is called. The call to get_prev_frame() can eventually
end up in get_prev_frame_if_no_cycle() which, in turn, calls
compute_frame_id(), after which the frame id is stashed for the
previous frame.
If the frame id for the current frame is stashed, the cycle detection
code (which relies on the frame stash) in get_prev_frame_if_no_cycle()
will be triggered for a cycle starting with the current frame. If the
current frame's id is not stashed, the cycle detecting code can't
operate as designed. Instead, when get_frame_id() is called on the
current frame at some later point, the current frame's id will found
to be already in the stash, triggering an assertion failure.
Below is an in depth examination of the failure which lead to this change.
I've shortened pathnames for brevity and readability.
Here's the portion of the log file showing the failure/internal error:

Examination of the code in frame_info_to_frame_object(), which is in
python/py-frame.c, is key to understanding this problem:
if (get_prev_frame (frame) == NULL
&& get_frame_unwind_stop_reason (frame) != UNWIND_NO_REASON
&& get_next_frame (frame) != NULL)
{
frame_obj->frame_id = get_frame_id (get_next_frame (frame));
frame_obj->frame_id_is_next = 1;
}
else
{
frame_obj->frame_id = get_frame_id (frame);
frame_obj->frame_id_is_next = 0;
}
I will first note that the frame id for frame has not been computed yet. (This
was verified by placing a breakpoint on compute_frame_id().)
The call to get_prev_frame() causes the the frame id to (eventually) be
computed for the previous frame. Here's a backtrace showing how we
get there:
#0 compute_frame_id (fi=0x10e2810)
at gdb/frame.c:496
#1 0x0000000000724a67 in get_prev_frame_if_no_cycle (this_frame=0xe5a760)

#5 0x00000000004eb471 in frame_info_to_frame_object (frame=0xe5a760)
at gdb/python/py-frame.c:381
For this particular case, we end up in the else clause of the code above
which calls get_frame_id (frame). It's at this point that the frame id
for frame is computed. Again, here's a backtrace:
#0 compute_frame_id (fi=0xe5a760)
at gdb/frame.c:496
#1 0x000000000072203d in get_frame_id (fi=0xe5a760)

The test in question, dw2-dup-frame.exp, deliberately creates a broken
(cyclic) stack. So, in this instance, the frame id for the prev
`frame' will be the same as that for `frame'. But that particular
frame id ended up in the stash during the previous frame operation.
When, just a few lines later, we compute the frame id for `frame', the
id in question is already in the stash, thus triggering the assertion
failure.
I considered two other solutions to solving this problem:
We could prevent get_prev_frame() from being called before
get_frame_id() in frame_info_to_frame_object(). (See above for the
snippet of code where this happens.) A call to get_frame_id (frame)
could be placed ahead of that code snippet above. I have tested this
approach and, while it does work, I can't be certain that
get_prev_frame() isn't called ahead of stashing the current frame
somewhere else in GDB, but in a less obvious way.
Another approach is to stash the current frame's id by calling
get_frame_id() in get_current_frame(). This approach is conceptually
simpler, but when importing a python unwinder, has the unwelcome side
effect of causing the unwinder to be called during import.
A cleaner looking fix would be to place this code after code
corresponding to the "Don't compute the frame id of the current frame
yet..." comment in get_prev_frame_if_no_cycle(). Sadly, this does not
work though; by the time we get to this point, the frame state for the
prev frame has been modified just enough to cause an internal error to
occur when attempting to compute the (current) frame id for inline
frames. (The unexpected failure count increases by roughly 130
failures.) Therefore, I decided to place it as early as possible
in get_prev_frame().
gdb/ChangeLog:
* frame.c (get_prev_frame): Stash frame id for current frame
prior to computing frame id for previous frame.
The C function, pending_framepy_read_register(), which implements
the python interface gdb.PendingFrame.read_register does not handle
the so called "user" registers like "pc". An assertion error is
triggered due to the user registers having numbers larger than or
equal to gdbarch_num_regs(gdbarch).
With the VALUE_FRAME_ID tweak in place, the call to
get_frame_register_value() can simply be replaced by a call to
value_of_register(), which handles both real registers as well as the
user registers.
gdb/ChangeLog:
* python/py-unwind.c (pending_framepy_read_register): Use
value_of_register() instead of get_frame_register_value().
The VALUE_FRAME_ID macro provides access to a member in struct value
that's used to hold the frame id that's used when determining a
register's value or when assigning to a register. The underlying
member has a long and obscure name. I won't refer to it here, but
will simply refer to VALUE_FRAME_ID as if it's the struct value member
instead of being a convenient macro.
At the moment, without this patch in place, VALUE_FRAME_ID is set in
value_of_register_lazy() and several other locations to hold the frame
id of the frame passed to those functions.
VALUE_FRAME_ID is used in the lval_register case of
value_fetch_lazy(). To fetch the register's value, it calls
get_frame_register_value() which, in turn, calls
frame_unwind_register_value() with frame->next.
A python based unwinder may wish to determine the value of a register
or evaluate an expression containing a register. When it does this,
value_fetch_lazy() will be called under some circumstances. It will
attempt to determine the frame id associated with the frame passed to
it. In so doing, it will end up back in the frame sniffer of the very
same python unwinder that's attempting to learn the value of a
register as part of the sniffing operation. This recursion is not
desirable.
As noted above, when value_fetch_lazy() wants to fetch a register's
value, it does so (indirectly) by unwinding from frame->next.
With this in mind, a solution suggests itself: Change VALUE_FRAME_ID
to hold the frame id associated with the next frame. Then, when it
comes time to obtain the value associated with the register, we can
simply unwind from the frame corresponding to the frame id stored in
VALUE_FRAME_ID. This neatly avoids the python unwinder recursion
problem by changing when the "next" operation occurs. Instead of the
"next" operation occuring when the register value is fetched, it
occurs earlier on when assigning a frame id to VALUE_FRAME_ID.
(Thanks to Pedro for this suggestion.)
This patch implements this idea.
It builds on the patch "Distinguish sentinel frame from null frame".
Without that work in place, it's necessary to check for null_id at
several places and then obtain the sentinel frame.
It also renames most occurences of VALUE_FRAME_ID to
VALUE_NEXT_FRAME_ID to reflect the new meaning of this field.
There are several uses of VALUE_FRAME_ID which were not changed. In
each case, the original meaning of VALUE_FRAME_ID is required to get
correct results. In all but one of these uses, either
put_frame_register_bytes() or get_frame_register_bytes() is being
called with the frame value obtained from VALUE_FRAME_ID. Both of
these functions perform some unwinding by performing a "->next"
operation on the frame passed to it. If we were to use the new
VALUE_NEXT_FRAME_ID macro, this would effectively do two "->next"
operations, which is not what we want.
The VALUE_FRAME_ID macro has been redefined in terms of
VALUE_NEXT_FRAME_ID. It simply fetches the previous frame's id,
providing this id as the value of the macro.
gdb/ChangeLog:
* value.h (VALUE_FRAME_ID): Rename to VALUE_NEXT_FRAME_ID. Update
comment. Create new VALUE_FRAME_ID which is defined in terms of
VALUE_NEXT_FRAME_ID.

VALUE_FRAME_ID to VALUE_NEXT_FRAME_ID. Add comments for those
which did not change.
* value.c (struct value): Rename frame_id field to next_frame_id.
Update comment.
(deprecated_value_frame_id_hack): Rename to

* dwarf2loc.c (dwarf2_evaluate_loc_desc_full): Make
VALUE_NEXT_FRAME_ID refer to the next frame.

This patch replaces the `current_frame' static global in frame.c with
`sentinel_frame'. It also makes the sentinel frame id unique and
different from the null frame.
By itself, there is not much point to this patch, but it makes
the code cleaner for the VALUE_FRAME_ID changes in another patch.
Since we now allow "navigation" to the sentinel frame, it removes
the necessity of adding special cases to other parts of GDB.
Note that a new function, get_next_frame_sentinel_okay, is introduced
in this patch. It will be used by the VALUE_FRAME_ID changes that
I've made.
Thanks to Pedro Alves for this suggestion.

This patch modifies the unwinder (sniffer) defined in
py-recurse-unwind.py so that, depending upon the value of one of its
class variables, it will take different paths through the code,
testing different functionality.
The original test attempted to obtain the value of an undefined
symbol.
This somewhat expanded test checks to see if 'pc' can be read via
gdb.PendingFrame.read_register() and also via gdb.parse_and_eval().
gdb/testsuite/ChangeLog:
* gdb.python/py-recurse-unwind.c (main): Add loop.
* gdb.python/py-recurse-unwind.py (TestUnwinder): Add calls
to read_register() and gdb.parse_and_eval(). Make each code
call a separate case that can be individually tested.
* gdb.python/py-recurse-unwind.exp (cont_and_backtrace): New
proc. Call cont_and_backtrace for each of the code paths that
we want to test in the unwinder.
Now that we require C++11 and all uses of gdb::unique_ptr and
gdb::move are gone, let's remove their definitions...
With my lazy hat on, I repurposed the header for "generally useful
unique_ptr specializations", and left gdb::unique_xmalloc_ptr in
there. Not sure whether we it'd be better move it out of the gdb
namespace or leave it be. I left it because it's less work and avoids
disrupting yet-unmerged patches that use it.

The "struct S" type in bitfield-parent-optimized-out.exp is declared to
have a size of 4 bytes but to hold two 4-byte members: an int-based
bitfield and a 4-byte int. Also, both members have the same
data_member_location 2, causing them to overlap and to reach 2 bytes
beyond the structure's boundary.
This is fixed by increasing the structure size to 8 and setting the
first and second member's data_member_location to 0 and 4, respectively.
gdb/testsuite/ChangeLog:
* gdb.dwarf2/bitfield-parent-optimized-out.exp: Fix DWARF code for
the definition of struct S.
The data_head of a perf event data buffer grows indefinitely. Users are
expected to compute data_head % data_size to find the location inside the perf
event data buffer.
The aux_head of a perf event aux buffer wraps around and always stays within the
perf event aux buffer.
Well, at least that's the behaviour for BTS and PT - where BTS uses the data
buffer and PT the aux buffer.
GDB does not read beyond data_head or aux_head. This is OK for BTS but wrong
for PT. It causes only a portion of the trace to be considered by GDB. In the
extreme case, the buffer may appear (almost) empty.
Thanks to Tim Wiederhake <tim.wiederhake@intel.com> for reporting the anomaly.
Change it to read the entire aux buffer for PT. The buffer is initially zero so
any extra zeroes we read before aux_head wraps around the first time will be
ignored when searching for the first PSB packet in order to synchronize onto the
trace stream.

While adding new tests to gdb.base/commands.exp, I noticed that the
file includes a bunch of individual testcases split into their own
procedures, and that none have ever been adjusted to use
with_test_prefix. Instead, each gdb_test/gdb_test_multiple/etc
invocation takes care of including the procedure name in the test
message, in order to make sure test messages are unique.
Simon convinced me that using the procedure name as prefix is not that
bad of an idea:
https://sourceware.org/ml/gdb-patches/2016-10/msg00020.html
This commit adds an IMO simpler alternative to
with_test_prefix_procname added by that patch -- a new
"proc_with_prefix" convenience proc that is meant to be used in place

Now that we require C++11, use std::unique_ptr directly. This allows
simplifying collection_list a bit by placing unique pointers in the
vector directly, making the vector own its elements.
gdb/ChangeLog:
2016-11-09 Pedro Alves <palves@redhat.com>
* ax-gdb.c (agent_eval_command_one): Use std::move instead of
gdb::move.
* ax.h (agent_expr_up): Use std::unique_ptr instead of
gdb::unique_ptr.
* breakpoint.c (parse_cond_to_aexpr): Use std::move instead of
gdb::move.
* tracepoint.c (collection_list::collect_symbol): Likewise.
(collection_list::~collection_list): Delete.
(encode_actions_1): Use std::move instead of gdb::move.
(collection_list::add_aexpr): Use std::move instead of
unique_ptr::release.
* tracepoint.h (collection_list) <~collection_list>: Delete
declaration.
<m_aexprs>: Now a vector of agent_ptr_up.
Now that we require C++11, we can use vector::emplace_back to
construct elements in place instead of constructing and then copying.
gdb/ChangeLog:
2016-11-09 Pedro Alves <palves@redhat.com>
* main.c (struct cmdarg): Add constructor.
(captured_main_1): Use vector::emplace_back.
* tracepoint.c (collection_list::add_memrange): Likewise.
This removes dead code in tui_alloc_source_buffer for handling a NULL
return value from xmalloc.
gdb/ChangeLog:
* tui/tui-winsource.c (tui_alloc_source_buffer): Remove
failed-xmalloc handling.
The logic for allocating a TUI source window's content buffer allocates
two more lines than needed, because it does not reduce the window height
by the highlight box's overhead. However, it does reduce the line width
accordingly. This patch makes the height and width calculation
consistent and improves the comment.
gdb/ChangeLog:
* tui/tui-winsource.c (tui_alloc_source_buffer): Subtract
highlight box's overhead when calculating the content height.
The code that fills the TUI disassembly window content first calculates
the maximum full length of a displayed disassembly line. This
calculation typically yields the wrong result. The result is too large,
so the bug does not cause any run-time failures, but unnecessary
confusion for the reader. This patch fixes the calculation.
gdb/ChangeLog:
* tui/tui-disasm.c (tui_set_disassem_content): Fix calculation of
the longest disassembly line's length.
A user reported a GDB crash with TUI when trying to debug a function
with a long demangled C++ method name. It turned out that the logic for
displaying the TUI disassembly window has a bug that can cause a buffer
overrun, possibly overwriting GDB-internal data structures. In
particular, the logic performs an unguarded strcpy.
Another (harmless) bug in tui_alloc_source_buffer causes the buffer to
be two lines longer than needed. This may have made the crash appear
less frequently.
gdb/ChangeLog:
* tui/tui-disasm.c (tui_set_disassem_content): Fix line buffer
overrun due to unchecked strcpy.
gdb/testsuite/ChangeLog:
* gdb.base/tui-layout.c: New file.
* gdb.base/tui-layout.exp: Use tui-layout.c, to ensure that the
disassembly window contains very long lines.
Support message from new task and dead name notification on task of an
existing process.
With Sierra, exec(2) terminate the current task and creates a new one.
'set startup-with-shell off' must still be used on Darwin 16.
2016-11-09 Tristan Gingold <gingold@adacore.com>
* darwin-nat.c (find_inferior_task_it): Fix indentation.

(darwin_find_inferior_by_notify): Remove.

I happened to notice that one test in py-value.exp did not work
properly with Python 3. This patch fixes the problem.
2016-11-08 Tom Tromey <tom@tromey.com>
* gdb.python/py-value.exp (test_value_creation): Make "long" test
depend on Python 2.
While writing a Python frame filter, I found a few bugs in the current
frame filter code. In particular:
* One spot converts a Python long to a CORE_ADDR using PyLong_AsLong.
However, this can fail on overflow. I changed this to use
get_addr_from_python.
* Another spot is doing the same but with PyLong_AsUnsignedLongLong; I
changed this as well just for consistency.
* Converting line numbers can print "-1" if conversion from long
fails. This isn't fatal but just a bit ugly.
I've included a test case for the first issue. The line number one
didn't seem important enough to bother with.
2016-11-08 Tom Tromey <tom@tromey.com>
* python/py-framefilter.c (py_print_frame): Use
get_addr_from_python. Check for errors when getting line number.
2016-11-08 Tom Tromey <tom@tromey.com>
* gdb.python/py-framefilter.py (ElidingFrameDecorator.address):
New method.
This patch calls get_frame_register_value instead of
deprecated_frame_register_read, so that we can pass
value_contents_for_printing to val_print. Both
get_frame_register_value and deprecated_frame_register_read call
frame_unwind_register_value indirectly, so no functionality is changed
by this patch.
gdb:
2016-11-08 Yao Qi <yao.qi@linaro.org>
* mt-tdep.c (mt_registers_info): Call
get_frame_register_value instead of
deprecated_frame_register_read.
* sh64-tdep.c (sh64_do_register): Likewise.
After the previous patch, we end up with these two types with quite
similar, and potentially confusing names:
typedef gdb::unique_ptr<agent_expr> agent_expr_up;
/* Pointer to an agent_expr structure. */
typedef struct agent_expr *agent_expr_p;
The latter is only necessary to put agent_expr pointers in VECs. So
just eliminate it and use std::vector instead.
gdb/ChangeLog:
2016-11-08 Pedro Alves <palves@redhat.com>
* ax.h (agent_expr_p): Delete.
(DEF_VEC_P (agent_expr_p)): Delete.
* breakpoint.c (build_target_condition_list)
(build_target_command_list): Adjust to use of std::vector.
(bp_location_dtor): Remove now unnecessary VEC_free calls.
* breakpoint.h: Include <vector>.
(struct bp_target_info) <conditions, tcommands>: Now
std::vector's.
* remote.c (remote_add_target_side_condition): bp_tgt->conditions
is now a std::vector; adjust.
(remote_add_target_side_commands, remote_insert_breakpoint):
bp_tgt->tcommands is now a std::vector; adjust.
This patch makes the gen_* functions return a unique_ptr instead of
raw pointer:
typedef gdb::unique_ptr<agent_expr> agent_expr_up;
and then adjusts the codebase throughout to stop using
make_cleanup_free_agent_expr.
The cond_bytecode and cmd_bytecode fields of struct bp_location are
owning pointers, so they're changed to be unique_ptr's instead of raw
pointers.

This replaces most of the remaining ui_file_xstrdup calls with
ui_file_as_string calls. Whenever a call was replaced, that led to a
cascade of other necessary adjustments throughout, to make the code
use std::string instead of raw pointers. And then whenever I added a
std::string as member of a struct, I needed to adjust
allocation/destruction of said struct to use new/delete instead of
xmalloc/xfree.
The stopping point was once gdb built again. These doesn't seem to be
a way to reasonably split this out further.
Maybe-not-obvious changes:
- demangle_for_lookup returns a cleanup today. To get rid of that,
and avoid unnecessary string dupping/copying, this introduces a
demangle_result_storage type that the caller instantiates and
passes to demangle_for_lookup.
- Many methods returned a "char *" to indicate that the caller owns
the memory and must free it. Those are switched to return a
std::string instead. Methods that return a "view" into some
internal string return a "const char *" instead. I.e., we only
copy/allocate when necessary.
