value_incref returned its argument just as a convenience, which in the
end turned out to only be used in precisely the cases where
new_reference helps. So, this patch changes value_incref to return
void and changes some value-using code to use new_reference.
I also noticed that the comments for value_incref and value_decref
were swapped, so this patch fixes those.
ChangeLog
2018-04-30 Tom Tromey <tom@tromey.com>
* varobj.c (install_new_value): Use new_reference.
* value.h (value_incref): Return void. Swap intro comment with
value_decref.

(value_incref): Return void. Update intro comment.
(release_value): Use new_reference.
* dwarf2loc.c (dwarf2_evaluate_loc_desc_full): Use new_reference.
This patch changes value_release_to_mark and fetch_subexp_value to
return a std::vector of value references, rather than relying on the
"next" field that is contained in a struct value. This makes it
simpler to reason about the returned values, and also allows for the
removal of free_value_chain.

* value.c (free_all_values): Remove.
struct value is internally reference counted and so, while it also has
some ownership rules unique to it, it makes sense to use a gdb_ref_ptr
when managing it automatically.
This patch removes the existing unique_ptr specialization in favor of
a reference-counted pointer. It also introduces two other
clarifications:
1. Rename value_free to value_decref, which I think is more in line
with what the function actually does; and
2. Change release_value to return a gdb_ref_ptr. This change allows
us to remove the confusing release_value_or_incref function,
primarily by making it much simpler to reason about the result of
release_value.

The initial goal of this patch was to remove the usage of
VEC(xmethod_worker_ptr) and corresponding cleanups. I ended up having
to C++ify the xmethod_worker code, to be able to have xmethod_workers
free their data in destructors, and therefore be able to use vectors of
xmethod_worker unique_ptr.
The operations in extension_language_ops that act on one instance of
xmethod_worker (get result type, get args type, invoke) are transformed
to methods of xmethod_worker. xmethod_worker becomes an abstract base
class with virtual pure methods which python_xmethod_worker implements.
The only xmethod-related operation left in extension_language_ops is
get_matching_xmethod_workers, which returns a list of xmethod_workers.
The changes are relatively straightforward, but here are some notes on
things that may raise eyebrows:
- I was not really comfortable with the value_of_xmethod function. At
first it looks like a simple getter, so I considered making it a
method of xmethod_worker. But actually it creates a value and
transfers the ownership of the xmethod_worker to it. It would be a
bit weird and error-prone if calling a method on an object silently
removed the ownership of the object from the caller. To reflect the
behavior more accurately, I renamed it to value_from_xmethod and made
it accept an rvalue-reference (so the caller knows it gives away the
ownership). I noticed the backlink from xmethod_worker to its owning
value was not used, so I removed it.
- Some code, like get_matching_xmethod_workers, made each callee fill
a new vector, which was then merged in the result vector. I think
it's safe if we always pass the same vector around, and each
implementation just appends to it.
- The clone operation does not seem particularly useful, it is removed
in the following patch.

Consider a program which provides a symbol without debugging
information. For instance, compiling the following code without -g:
Some_Minimal_Symbol : Integer := 1234;
pragma Export (C, Some_Minimal_Symbol, "some_minsym");
Trying to print this variable with GDB now causes an error, which
is now expected:
(gdb) p some_minsym
'some_minsym' has unknown type; cast it to its declared type
However, trying to cast this symbol, or to take its address
does not work:
(gdb) p integer(some_minsym)
'some_minsym' has unknown type; cast it to its declared type
(gdb) p &some_minsym
'some_minsym' has unknown type; cast it to its declared type
Another manisfestation of this issue can be seen when trying to
insert an Ada exception catchpoint for a specific standard exception
(this only occurs if the Ada runtime is built without debugging
information, which is the default). For instance:
$ (gdb) catch exception constraint_error
warning: failed to reevaluate internal exception condition for catchpoint 0: 'constraint_error' has unknown type; cast it to its declared type
This is because, internally, the cachtpoint uses a condition referencing
a minimal symbol, more precisely:
long_integer (e) = long_integer (&constraint_error)
This patch fixes all issues listed above:
1. resolve_subexp: Special-case the handling of OP_VAR_MSYM_VALUE
expression elements, where there are no ambiguities to be resolved
in that situation;
2. ada_evaluate_subexp: Enhance the handling of the UNOP_CAST
handling so as to process the case where the target of
the cast is a minimal symbol (as well as a symbol with debugging
information). This mimics what's done in C.

This patch introduces the new set of target floating-point handling routines
in target-float.{c,h}. In the end, the intention is that this file will
contain support for all operations in target FP format, fully replacing
both the current doublest.{c,h} and dfp.{c,h}.
To begin with, this patch only adds a target_float_is_zero routine,
which handles the equivalent of decimal_is_zero for both binary and
decimal FP. For the binary case, to avoid conversion to DOUBLEST,
this is implemented using the floatformat_classify routine.
However, it turns out that floatformat_classify actually has a bug
(it was not used to check for zero before), so this is fixed as well.
The new routine is used in both value_logical_not and valpy_nonzero.
There is one extra twist: the code previously used value_as_double
to convert to DOUBLEST and then compare against zero. That routine
performs an extra task: it detects invalid floating-point values
and raises an error. In any place where value_as_double is removed
in favor of some target-float.c routine, we need to replace that check.
To keep this check centralized in one place, I've added a new routine
is_floating_value, which returns a boolean determining whether a
value's type is floating point (binary or decimal), and if so, also
performs the validity check. Since we need to check whether a value
is FP before calling any of the target-float routines anyway, this
seems a good place to add the check without much code size overhead.
In some places where we only want to check for floating-point types
and not perform a validity check (e.g. for the *output* of an operation),
we can use the new is_floating_type routine (in gdbarch) instead.
The validity check itself is done by a new target_float_is_valid
routine in target-float, encapsulating floatformat_is_valid.
ChangeLog:

The print_floating routine currently makes a lot of assumptions about host
and target floating point formats. This patch cleans up many of those.
One problem is that print_floating may currently be called with types
that are not actually floating-point types, and it tries hard to output
those as floating-point values anyway. However, there is only one single
caller of print_floating where this can ever happen: print_scalar_formatted.
And in fact, it is much simpler to handle the case where the value to be
printed is not already of floating-point type right there.
So this patch changes print_scalar_formatted to handle the 'f' format
as follows:
- If the value to be printed is already of floating-point type, just
call print_floating on it.
- Otherwise, if there is a standard target floating-point type of
the same size as the value, call print_floating using that type.
- Otherwise, just print the value as if the 'f' format had not been
specified at all.
This has the overall effect to printing everything the same way as
the old code did, but is overall a lot simpler. (Also, it would
allow us to change the above strategy more easily, if that might
be a more intuitive user interface. For example, in the third
case above, maybe an error would be more appropriate?)
Given that change, print_floating can become much simpler. In particular,
we now always have a floating-point format that we can consult. This
means we can use the floating-point format to programmatically determine
the number of digits necessary to print the value.
The current code uses a hard-coded value of 9, 17, or 35 digits. Note
that this matches the DECIMAL_DIG values for IEEE-32, IEEE-64, and
IEEE-128. (Actually, for IEEE-128 the correct value is 36 -- the 35
seems to be an oversight.) The DECIMAL_DIG value is defined to be
the smallest number so that any number in the target format, when
printed to this number of digits and then scanned back into a binary
floating-point number, will result in the original value.
Now that we always have a FP format, we can just compute the DECIMAL_DIG
value using the formula from the C standard. This will be correct for
*all* FP formats, not just the above list, and it will be correct (as
opposed to current code) if the target formats differ from the host ones.
The patch moves the new logic to a new floatformat_to_string routine
(analogous to the existing decimal_to_string). The print_floating
routine now calls floatformat_to_string or decimal_to_string, making
the separate print_decimal_floating and generic_val_print_decfloat routines
unnecessary.

This patch reworks the whole completion machinery, and prepares it
for later enhancements.
Adds a new "completion_tracker" class that is meant to hold everything
about the state of the current completion operation.
This class now has the responsibility of tracking the list of
completion matches, and checking whether the max completions limit has
been reached. You can look at this as this patch starting out by
C++fying the existing "completion_tracker" in symtab.c (it's just an
htab_t typedef currently), moving it to completer.h/c, and then making
it a class/generalizing/enhancing it.
Unlike with the current tracking, completion_tracker now checks
whether the limit has been reached on each completion match list
insertion. This both simplifies the max-completions handling code
(maybe_add_completion_enum is gone, for example), and is a
prerequisite for follow up patches.
The current completion_tracker is only used for symbol completions,
and the symbol code gets at the current instance via globals. This
patch cleans that up by adding a completion_tracker reference to the
signature of the completion functions, and passing the tracker around
everywhere necessary.
Then, the patch changes how the completion match list is handed over
to readline. Currently, we're using the rl_completion_entry_function
readline entry point, and the patch switches to
rl_attempted_completion_function. A following patch will want to let
GDB itself decide the common completion prefix between all matches
(what readline calls the "lowest common denominator"), instead of
having readline compute it, and that's not possible with the
rl_completion_entry_function entry point. Also,
rl_attempted_completion_function lets GDB hand over the match list to
readline as an array in one go instead of passing down matches one by
one, so from that angle it's a nicer entry point anyway.
Lastly, the patch catches exceptions around the readline entry points,
because we can't let C++ exceptions cross readline. We handle that in
the readline input entry point, but the completion entry point isn't
guarded, so GDB can abort if completion throws. E.g., in current
master:
(gdb) b -function "fun<tab>
terminate called after throwing an instance of 'gdb_exception_RETURN_MASK_ERROR'
Aborted (core dumped)
This patch fixes that. This will be exercised in the new tests added
later on in the series.

The function read_value_memory accepts a parameter embedded_offset and
expects it to represent the byte offset into the given value. However,
the only invocation with a possibly non-zero embedded_offset happens in
read_pieced_value, where a bit offset is passed instead.
Adjust the implementation of read_value_memory to meet the caller's
expectation. This implicitly fixes the invocation in read_pieced_value.

This changes dwarf2_evaluate_loc_desc_full to use scoped_value_mark.
Note that this function previously called do_cleanup using the same
cleanup multiple times. I had thought this was buggy, but re-reading
make_my_cleanup2 indicates that it is not. Nevertheless it is
surprising, and at least one of the calls (the one that is completely
removed in this patch) seems to have been done under the assumption
that it would still have some effect.

This adds a scoped_value_mark class, that records the value mark in

It then updates various spots in gdb to use this class, rather than a
cleanup.
It would be better overall to replace "struct value *" with a
shared_ptr, maybe eliminating the need for this class (watchpoints
would perhaps need some new mechanism as well). However, that's
difficult to do.

value.regnum and value.next_frame_id are only used for lval_register,
so this patch moves them to union value.location. As a result, when
we copy value, only copy location, don't need to copy regnum and
next_frame_id.
This patch also changes regnum's type to int as there is no space
constraint, so update deprecated_value_regnum_hack return type too.

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.

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.

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.

PR python/20190 arose from an exception I noticed when trying to use
the Python unwinder for Spider Monkey in Firefox.
The problem is that the unwinder wants to examine the value of a
thread-local variable. However, sympy_value rejects this because
symbol_read_needs_frame returns true for a TLS variable.
This problem arose once before, though in a different context:
https://sourceware.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=11803
At the time Pedro and Daniel pointed out a simpler way to fix that bug
(see links in 20190 if you are interested); but for this new bug I
couldn't think of a similar fix and ended up implementing Daniel's
other suggestion:
https://sourceware.org/ml/gdb-patches/2010-07/msg00393.html
That is, this patch makes it possible to detect whether a symbol needs
a specific frame, or whether it just needs the inferior to have
registers.

GDB's current behavior when dealing with non-local references in the
context of nested fuctions is approximative:
- code using valops.c:value_of_variable read the first available stack
frame that holds the corresponding variable (whereas there can be
multiple candidates for this);
- code directly relying on read_var_value will instead read non-local
variables in frames where they are not even defined.
This change adds the necessary context to symbol reads (to get the block
they belong to) and to blocks (the static link property, if any) so that
GDB can make the proper decisions when dealing with non-local varibale
references.

This patch updates various value handling functions to make them

This allows to correctly extract and print values on architectures whose
addressable memory unit is not 8 bits.
The patch doesn't cover all the code that would ideally need to be

ones. Specifically, those areas are not covered by this patch:
- Management of unavailable bits
- Bitfields
- C++ stuff

PR 12526 reports that -location watchpoints against bitfield arguments
trigger false positives when bits around the bitfield, but not the
bitfield itself, are modified.
This happens because -location watchpoints naturally operate at the
byte level, not at the bit level. When the address of a bitfield
lvalue is taken, information about the bitfield (i.e. its offset and
size) is lost in the process.
This information must first be retained throughout the lifetime of the
-location watchpoint. This patch achieves this by adding two new
fields to the watchpoint struct: val_bitpos and val_bitsize. These
fields are set when a watchpoint is first defined in watch_command_1.
They are both equal to zero if the watchpoint is not a -location
watchpoint or if the argument is not a bitfield.
Then these bitfield parameters are used inside update_watchpoint and
watchpoint_check to extract the actual value of the bitfield from the
watchpoint address, with the help of a local helper function
extract_bitfield_from_watchpoint_value.
Finally when creating a HW breakpoint pointing to a bitfield, we
optimize the address and length of the breakpoint. By skipping over
the bytes that don't cover the bitfield, this step reduces the
frequency at which a read watchpoint for the bitfield is triggered.
It also reduces the number of times a false-positive call to
check_watchpoint is triggered for a write watchpoint.

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

This fixes PR symtab/14604, PR symtab/14605, and Jan's test at
https://sourceware.org/ml/gdb-patches/2014-07/msg00158.html, in a tree
with bddbbed reverted:
2014-07-22 Pedro Alves <palves@redhat.com>
* value.c (allocate_optimized_out_value): Don't mark value as
non-lazy.
The PRs are about variables described by the DWARF as being split over
multiple registers using DWARF piece information, but some of those
registers being marked as optimised out (not saved) by a later frame.
GDB currently incorrectly mishandles these partially-optimized-out
values.
Even though we can usually tell from the debug info whether a local or
global is optimized out, handling the case of a local living in a
register that was not saved in a frame requires fetching the variable.
GDB also needs to fetch a value to tell whether parts of it are
"<unavailable>". Given this, it's not worth it to try to avoid
fetching lazy optimized-out values based on debug info alone.
So this patch makes GDB track which chunks of a value's contents are
optimized out like it tracks <unavailable> contents. That is, it
makes value->optimized_out be a bit range vector instead of a boolean,
and removes the struct lval_funcs check_validity and check_any_valid
hooks.
Unlike Andrew's series which this is based on (at
https://sourceware.org/ml/gdb-patches/2013-08/msg00300.html, note some
pieces have gone in since), this doesn't merge optimized out and
unavailable contents validity/availability behind a single interface,
nor does it merge the bit range vectors themselves (at least yet).
While it may be desirable to have a single entry point that returns
existence of contents irrespective of what may make them
invalid/unavailable, several places want to treat optimized out /
unavailable / etc. differently, so each spot that potentially could
use it will need to be careful considered on case-by-case basis, and
best done as a separate change.
This fixes Jan's test, because value_available_contents_eq wasn't
considering optimized out value contents. It does now, and because of
that it's been renamed to value_contents_eq.
A new intro comment is added to value.h describing "<optimized out>",
"<not saved>" and "<unavailable>" values.

This patch adds support for these cases in the obvious way.
Built and regtested on x86-64 Fedora 20.
New tests included.

This patch fixes a problem that prevented use of the Dwarf unwinders on SPU,
because dwarf2-frame.c common code did not support the situation where the
stack and/or frame pointer is maintained in a *vector* register. This is
because read_addr_from_reg is hard-coded to assume that such pointers can
be read from registers via a simple get_frame_register / unpack_pointer
operation.
Now, there *is* a routine address_from_register that calls into the
appropriate tdep routines to handle pointer values in "weird" registers
like on SPU, but it turns out I cannot simply change dwarf2-frame.c to
use address_from_register. This is because address_from_register uses
value_from_register to create a (temporary) value, and that routine
at some point calls get_frame_id in order to set up that value's
VALUE_FRAME_ID entry.
However, the dwarf2-frame.c read_addr_from_reg routine will be called
during early unwinding (to unwind the frame's CFA), at which point the
frame's ID is not actually known yet! This would cause an assert.
On the other hand, we may notice that VALUE_FRAME_ID is only needed in the
value returned by value_from_register if that value is later used as an
lvalue. But this is obviously never done to the temporary value used in
address_from_register. So, if we could change address_from_register to
not call value_from_register but instead accept constructing a value
that doesn't have VALUE_FRAME_ID set, things should be fine.
To do that, we can change the value_from_register callback to accept
a FRAME_ID instead of a FRAME; the only existing uses of the FRAME
argument were either to extract its frame ID, or its gdbarch. (To
keep a way of getting at the latter, we also change the callback's
type from "f" to "m".) Together with the required follow-on changes
in the existing value_from_register implementations (including the
default one), this seems to fix the problem.
As another minor interface cleanup, I've removed the explicit TYPE
argument from address_from_register. This routine really always
uses a default pointer type, and in the new implementation it -to
some extent- relies on that fact, in that it will now no longer
handle types that require gdbarch_convert_register_p handling.

While working on another patch I realized that value_aggregate_elt's
"name" parameter ought to be const. This patch implements this.
