The pattern
objfile->section_offsets[SECT_OFF_TEXT (objfile)]
... appears very often, to get the offset of the text section of an
objfile. I thought it would be more readable to write it as:
objfile->text_section_offset ()
... so I added this method and used it where possible. I also added
data_section_offset, although it is not used as much.

/src-local/binutils-gdb/gdb/darwin-nat.c:1264:18: error: declaration of 'inf' shadows a previous local [-Werror=shadow=compatible-local]

Fix it by moving the declaration of `inf` in the specific scopes that
need it. I think it's clearer this way anyway, as it shows that it's
not the same `inf` that is used in these different scopes.
Thanks to Iain Sandoe for reporting this. I did not see this error at
first, because I compile with the default system compiler on macOS,
which is clang. The compiler flag we try to enable for this is
`-Wshadow=local`, which is not one recognized by clang. I checked to
see if there would a version of the -Wshadow* warnings [1] we could
enable for clang, that would catch this, but the only one that would is
`-Wshadow` itself, and this is too invasive for us (which is why we
enabled just -Wshadow=local in the first place).

gdb/ChangeLog:
* darwin-nat.c (darwin_nat_target::wait_1): Move `inf`
declaration to narrower scopes.
The darwin-nat.c file doesn't build since the multi-target changes
(5b6d1e4f, "Multi-target support"). This patch makes it build. I have
access to a macOS vm, so I am able to build it, but I wasn't able to
successfully codesign it and try to actually debug something, so I don't
know if it works. I don't have much more time to put on this to figure
it out, so I thought I'd sent the patch anyway, as it's at least a step
in the right direction.
The bulk of the patch is to change a bunch of functions to be methods of
the darwin_nat_target object, so that this can pass `this` to
find_inferior_ptid and other functions that now require a
process_stratum_target pointer.
The darwin_ptrace_him function (renamed to darwin_nat_target::ptrace_him
in this patch) is passed to fork_inferior as the `init_trace_fun`
parameter. Since the method can't be passed as a plain function pointer
(we need the `this` pointer), I changed the `init_trace_fun` parameter
of fork_inferior to be a gdb::function_view, so we can pass a lambda and
capture `this`.
The changes in darwin-nat.h are only to move definition higher in the
file, so that forward declarations are not needed.

Each time a dll is loaded, update_solib_list is called.
This in turn calls deep down xfer_partial -> windows_xfer_shared_libraries,
which calls windows_xfer_shared_library for each loaded dll,
and pe_text_section_offset reads the dll for the text section offset.
Also if the data provided by xfer_partial is bigger than 4K,
then all of this is done for each 4K chunk (see target_read_alloc_1).
Caching of the text section offset improves the startup time of
an application with >300 dynamically loaded plugins from 2m10s to 10s.
And the shutdown time improves from 2m to 2s.

gdb: add back declarations for _initialize functions
6c2659886f
I wrongfully edited gdbarch.c, instead of editing gdbarch.sh and
re-generating gdbarch.c. This patch fixes gdbarch.sh to add a
declaration for _initialize_gdbarch. gdbarch.c is not changed, as the
output of gdbarch.sh now matches the current state of gdbarch.c.

* gdbarch.sh: Add declaration for _initialize_gdbarch.

While GNU Source Highlight is good, it's also difficult to build and
distribute. For one thing, it needs Boost. For another, it has an
unusual configuration and installation setup.
Pygments, a Python library, doesn't suffer from these issues, and so I
thought it would be a reasonable fallback.
This patch implements this idea. GNU Source Highlight is preferred,
but if it is unavailable (or fails), the extension languages are
tried. This patch also implements support for Pygments.
Something similar could be done for Guile, using:
https://dthompson.us/projects/guile-syntax-highlight.html
However, I don't know enough about Guile internals to make this
happen, so I have not done it here.

In particular, this one:
FAIL: gdb.base/step-over-syscall.exp: fork: displaced=on: check_pc_after_cross_syscall: single step over fork final pc
When ptrace fork event reporting is enabled, GDB gets a PTRACE_EVENT_FORK
event whenever the inferior executes the fork syscall.
Then the logic is that GDB needs to step the inferior yet again in order to
receive a predetermined SIGTRAP, but no execution takes place because the
signal was already queued for delivery. That means the PC should stay the same.
I noticed the aarch64 code is currently adjusting the PC in this situation,
making the inferior skip an instruction without executing it.
The following change checks if we did not execute the instruction
(pc - to == 0), making proper adjustments for such case.
Regression tested on aarch64-linux-gnu on the tryserver.

In some cases, the TUI flickers when redrawing. This can be seen

This moves many needed configure checks from gdb and gdbserver into
common.m4. This helps gdbsupport, nat, and target be self-contained.
The result is a bit spaghetti-ish, because gdbsupport uses another m4

This patch then adds a build system to gdbsupport and wires it into
the top level. Then it changes gdb to use the top-level build.
gdbserver, on the other hand, is not yet changed. It still does its
own build of gdbsupport.

I noticed that USE_WIN32API is defined separately by gdbserver and
gdb. However, because it is used by code in gdbsupport, it should be
defined by common.m4. This approach ensures that the code will

I ended up debugging a malformed ELF where a section containing
executable code was not correctly marked as allocatable. Before
realising the ELF was corrupted I tried to place a breakpoint on a
symbol in the non-allocatable, executable section, and GDB crashed.
Though trying to debug such an ELF clearly isn't going to go well I
would prefer, as far as possible, that any input, no matter how
corrupted, not crash GDB.
The crash occurs when trying to set a breakpoint on the name of a
function from the corrupted section. GDB converts the symbol to a
symtab_and_line, and looks up a suitable section for this.
The problem is that the section is actually an obj_section, which is
stored in the table within the objfile, and we only initialise this
table for allocatable sections (see add_to_objfile_sections_full in
objfiles.c). So, if the symbol is in a non-allocatable section then
we end up referencing an uninitialised obj_section.
Later we call get_sal_arch on the symtab_and_line, which calls
get_objfile_arch, which uses the objfile from the uninitialised
obj_section, which will be nullptr, at which point GDB crashes.
The fix I propose here is that when we setup the section references on
msymbols, we should check if the bfd_section being referenced is
allocatable or not. If it is not then we should set the section
reference back to the default 0 section (see how MSYMBOL_OBJ_SECTION
and SYMBOL_OBJ_SECTION treat the 0 section index).
With this fix in place GDB no longer crashes. Instead GDB creates the
breakpoint at the non-allocated address, and then fails, with an
error, when it tries to insert the breakpoint.

* Process debug_str_offsets section. Handle DW_AT_str_offsets_base attribute and
keep the value in dwarf2_cu.
* Make addr_base field in dwarf2_cu optional to disambiguate 0 value
(absent or present and 0).
* During parsing, there is no guarantee that DW_AT_str_offsets_base and
DW_AT_rnglists_base fields will be processed before the attributes that need
those values for correct computation. So make two passes, on the first one mark
the attributes that depend on *_base attributes and process only the others.
On the second pass, only process the attributes that are marked on the first
pass.
* For string attributes, differentiate between addresses that directly point to
a string and those that point to an offset in debug_str_offsets section.
* There are now two attributes, DW_AT_addr_base and DW_AT_GNU_addr_base to read
address offset base. Likewise, there are two attributes, DW_AT_rnglists_base
and DW_AT_GNU_ranges_base to read ranges base. Since there is no guarantee which
ones the compiler will generate, create helper functions to handle all cases.
Tested with CC=/usr/bin/gcc (version 8.3.0) against master branch (also with
-gsplit-dwarf and -gdwarf-4 flags) and there was no increase in the set of
tests that fails. (gdb still cannot debug a 'hello world' program with DWARF 5,
so for the time being, this is all we care about).
This is part of an effort to support DWARF-5 in gdb.
Since the data held by the `contents` variable is arbitrary binary data,
it should have gdb_byte elements, not char elements. Also, using
gdb::byte_vector is preferable, since it doesn't unnecessarily
zero-initialize the values.
Instead of adding a cast in the call to m_core_vec->core_read_registers,
I have changed core_read_registers' argument to be a gdb_byte* instead
of a char*.

In tui-wingeneral.c:box_win () a comment suggest we should display
titles like this:
+-WINDOW TITLE GOES HERE-+
However, we actually display them like this:
+--WINDOW TITLE GOES HERE+
The former seems nicer to me, so that's what this commit does. Short
titles will appear as:
+-SHORT TITLE------------+
We previously didn't test the horizontal windows borders in the test
suite, however, I've updated things so that we do now check for the
'+-' and '-+' on the upper border, this will give us some protection.

When compiling gdbserver for an architecture that uses the regdat.sh
script (such as m68k) and the -Wmissing-declarations compiler flag, I
get:
REGDAT reg-m68k-generated.c
CXX reg-m68k.o
reg-m68k-generated.c:30:1: error: no previous declaration for 'void init_registers_m68k()' [-Werror=missing-declarations]
30 | init_registers_m68k (void)
| ^~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
The same happens with other architectures, such as s390, but I'll be
using 68k as an example.
The init_registers_m68k function is defined in reg-m68k-generated.c,
which is produced by the regformats/regdat.sh script. This script reads
the regformats/reg-m68k.dat file, containing a register description, and
produces C code that creates a corresponding target description at
runtime.
The init_registers_m68k function is invoked at initialization time in
linux-m68k-low.c. The function must therefore be non-static, but does
not have a declaration at the moment.
The real clean way of fixing this would be to make regdat.sh generate a
.h file (in addition to the .c file) with declarations for whatever is
in the .c file. The generated .c file would include the .h file, and
therefore the definition would have a corresponding declaration. The
linux-m68k-low.c file would also include this .h file, instead of having
its own declaration of init_registers_m68k, like it does now.
However, this would be a quite big change for not much gain. As far as
I understand, some common architectures (i386, x86-64, ARM, AArch64)
have been moved to dynamically building target descriptions based on
features (the linux-*-tdesc.c files in gdbserver) and don't use
regdat.sh anymore. Logically (and given infinite development
resources), the other architectures would be migrated to this system too
and the regdat.sh script would be dropped. A new architecture would
probably not use regdat.sh either. So I therefore propose this simpler
patch instead, which just adds a local declaration in the generated
file.
gdb/ChangeLog:
* regformats/regdat.sh: Generate declaration for init function.
The remote-sim.c file doesn't build since the main multi-target patch
(5b6d1e4f, "Multi-target support"), this patch is an attempt to fix it.
I have only build-tested it, so I'm not sure it runs fine, but it should
get us close at least.
I made these functions methods of the gdbsim_target, because they need
to pass the target down to some GDB core functions, like
find_inferior_ptid:
- get_sim_inferior_data_by_ptid (renamed to get_inferior_data_by_ptid)
- gdbsim_resume_inferior (renamed to resume_one_inferior)
- gdbsim_close_inferior (renamed to close_one_inferior)
In the last two, I changed iterate_over_inferiors to a range-based for,
since that gives simpler code (no need to pass data through the void
pointer).
The next_pid variable, INITIAL_PID macro and sim_inferior_data structure
are simply moved up in the file, above gdbsim_target.
gdb/ChangeLog:
* remote-sim.c (next_pid, INITIAL_PID, sim_inferior_data): Move

The multi-target patch should have removed all traces of

the definition of the function.

When adding support for styling the TUI borders, I neglected to have
this code check cli_styling. As a result, "set style enabled off"
does not affect the borders.
This patch fixes this oversight. While doing this, I found that
running gdb without an executable, enabling the TUI, and then trying
"set style enabled off" would fail with the mysterious "No registers".
The fix for this is to use deprecated_safe_get_selected_frame in

GDB uses the 'current_top_target' when displaying the description of
an inferior. This leads to same target being used for each inferior
and, in turn, yields incorrect output when the inferior has a target
that is supposed to give a specialized output. For instance, the
remote target outputs "Remote target" instead of "process XYZ" as the
description if the multi-process feature is not supported or turned
off.
E.g.: Suppose we have a native and a remote target, and the native is
the current inferior. The remote target does not support multi-process.
For "info inferiors", we would expect to see:
~~~
(gdb) i inferiors
Num Description Connection Executable
* 1 process 29060 1 (native) /a/path
2 Remote target 2 (remote ...)
~~~
but instead we get
~~~
(gdb) i inferiors
Num Description Connection Executable
* 1 process 29060 1 (native) /a/path
2 process 42000 2 (remote ...)
~~~
Similarly, if the current inferior is the remote one, we would expect
to see
~~~
(gdb) i inferiors
Num Description Connection Executable
1 process 29060 1 (native) /a/path
* 2 Remote target 2 (remote ...)
~~~
but we get
~~~
(gdb) i inferiors
Num Description Connection Executable
* 1 Remote target 1 (native) /a/path
2 Remote target 2 (remote ...)
~~~
With this patch, we switch to the inferior when outputting its
description, so that the current_top_target will be aligned to the
inferior we are displaying.
For testing, this patch expands the "info inferiors" test for the
multi-target feature. The test was checking for the output of the
info commands after setup, only when the current inferior is the last
added inferior.
This patch does the following to the testcase:
1. The "info inferiors" and "info connections" test is extracted out
from the "setup" procedure to a separate procedure.
2. The test is enriched to check the output after switching to each
inferior, not just the last one.
3. The test is performed twice; one for when the multi-process feature
is turned on, one for off.

With multi-target, each inferior now has its own target connection.
The problem in switch_to_program_space_and_thread is that in the
current state GDB switches to "no thread" and also sets the program
space but because the inferior is not switched, potentially an
incorrect target remains selected.
Here is a sample scenario that exploits this flow:
On terminal 1, start a gdbserver on a program named foo:
$ gdbserver :1234 ./foo
On terminal 2, start gdb on a program named bar. Suppose foo and bar
are compiled from foo.c and bar.c. They are completely separate. So,
bar.c:2 has no meaning for foo.
$ gdb -q ./bar
Reading symbols from ./bar...
(gdb) add-inferior
[New inferior 2]
Added inferior 2
(gdb) inferior 2
[Switching to inferior 2 [<null>] (<noexec>)]
(gdb) target remote :1234
...
(gdb) set debug remote 2

Sending packet: $m5fe,1#ca...Packet received: E01
Breakpoint 1 at 0x5fe: file bar.c, line 2.
(gdb)
Here we have an unnecessary sending of the packets to the gdbserver.
With this fix in progspace-and-thread.c, we'll get this:
(gdb) break bar.c:2
Breakpoint 1 at 0x5fe: file bar.c, line 2.
(gdb)
Now there is no sending of the packets to gdbserver.
The changes around clear_symtab_users calls are necessary because
otherwise we regress gdb.base/step-over-exit.exp, hitting the new
assertion in switch_to_program_space_and_thread. The problem is, a
forked child terminates, and when GDB decides to auto-purge that
inferior, GDB tries to switch to the pspace of that no-longer-existing
inferior.
The root of the problem is within the program_space destructor:
program_space::~program_space ()
{
...
set_current_program_space (this); # (1)
...
breakpoint_program_space_exit (this); # (2)
...
free_all_objfiles (); # (3)
...
}
We get here from delete_inferior -> delete_program_space.
So we're deleting an inferior, and the inferior to be
deleted is no longer in the inferior list.
At (2), we've deleted all the breakpoints and locations for the
program space being deleted.
The crash happens while doing a breakpoint re-set, called by
clear_symtab_users at the tail end of (3). That is, while recreating
breakpoints for the current program space, which is the program space
we're tearing down. During breakpoint re-set, we try to switch to the
new location's pspace (the current pspace set in (1), so the pspace
we're tearing down) with switch_to_program_space_and_thread, and that
hits the failed assertion. It's the fact that we recreate breakpoints
in the program_space destructor that is the latent bug here. Just
don't do that, and we don't end up in the crash situation.
My first approach to fix this added a symfile_add_flags parameter to
program_space::free_all_objfiles, and then passed that down to
clear_symtab_users. The program_space dtor would then pass down
SYMFILE_DEFER_BP_RESET to free_all_objfiles. I couldn't help feeling
that adding that parameter to free_all_objfiles looked a little
awkward, so I settled on something a little different -- hoist the
clear_symtab_users call to the callers. There are only two callers.
I felt that that didn't look as odd, particularly since
remove_symbol_file_command also does:
objf->unlink ();
clear_symtab_users (0);
I.e., objfile deletion is already separate from calling
clear_symtab_users in some places.
