This commit adds multi-target support to GDB. What this means is that
with this commit, GDB can now be connected to different targets at the
same time. E.g., you can debug a live native process and a core dump
at the same time, connect to multiple gdbservers, etc.
Actually, the word "target" is overloaded in gdb. We already have a
target stack, with pushes several target_ops instances on top of one
another. We also have "info target" already, which means something
completely different to what this patch does.
So from here on, I'll be using the "target connections" term, to mean
an open process_stratum target, pushed on a target stack. This patch
makes gdb have multiple target stacks, and multiple process_stratum
targets open simultaneously. The user-visible changes / commands will
also use this terminology, but of course it's all open to debate.
User-interface-wise, not that much changes. The main difference is
that each inferior may have its own target connection.
A target connection (e.g., a target extended-remote connection) may
support debugging multiple processes, just as before.
Say you're debugging against gdbserver in extended-remote mode, and
you do "add-inferior" to prepare to spawn a new process, like:
(gdb) target extended-remote :9999
...
(gdb) start
...
(gdb) add-inferior
Added inferior 2
(gdb) inferior 2
[Switching to inferior 2 [<null>] (<noexec>)]
(gdb) file a.out
...
(gdb) start
...
At this point, you have two inferiors connected to the same gdbserver.
With this commit, GDB will maintain a target stack per inferior,
instead of a global target stack.
To preserve the behavior above, by default, "add-inferior" makes the
new inferior inherit a copy of the target stack of the current
inferior. Same across a fork - the child inherits a copy of the
target stack of the parent. While the target stacks are copied, the
targets themselves are not. Instead, target_ops is made a
refcounted_object, which means that target_ops instances are
refcounted, which each inferior counting for a reference.
What if you want to create an inferior and connect it to some _other_
target? For that, this commit introduces a new "add-inferior
-no-connection" option that makes the new inferior not share the
current inferior's target. So you could do:
(gdb) target extended-remote :9999
Remote debugging using :9999
...
(gdb) add-inferior -no-connection
[New inferior 2]
Added inferior 2
(gdb) inferior 2
[Switching to inferior 2 [<null>] (<noexec>)]
(gdb) info inferiors
Num Description Executable
1 process 18401 target:/home/pedro/tmp/main
* 2 <null>
(gdb) tar extended-remote :10000
Remote debugging using :10000
...
(gdb) info inferiors
Num Description Executable
1 process 18401 target:/home/pedro/tmp/main
* 2 process 18450 target:/home/pedro/tmp/main
(gdb)
A following patch will extended "info inferiors" to include a column
indicating which connection an inferior is bound to, along with a
couple other UI tweaks.
Other than that, debugging is the same as before. Users interact with
inferiors and threads as before. The only difference is that
inferiors may be bound to processes running in different machines.
That's pretty much all there is to it in terms of noticeable UI
changes.
On to implementation.
Since we can be connected to different systems at the same time, a
ptid_t is no longer a unique identifier. Instead a thread can be
identified by a pair of ptid_t and 'process_stratum_target *', the
later being the instance of the process_stratum target that owns the
process/thread. Note that process_stratum_target inherits from
target_ops, and all process_stratum targets inherit from
process_stratum_target. In earlier patches, many places in gdb were
converted to refer to threads by thread_info pointer instead of
ptid_t, but there are still places in gdb where we start with a
pid/tid and need to find the corresponding inferior or thread_info
objects. So you'll see in the patch many places adding a
process_stratum_target parameter to functions that used to take only a
ptid_t.
Since each inferior has its own target stack now, we can always find
the process_stratum target for an inferior. That is done via a
inf->process_target() convenience method.
Since each inferior has its own target stack, we need to handle the
"beneath" calls when servicing target calls. The solution I settled
with is just to make sure to switch the current inferior to the
inferior you want before making a target call. Not relying on global
context is just not feasible in current GDB. Fortunately, there
aren't that many places that need to do that, because generally most
code that calls target methods already has the current context
pointing to the right inferior/thread. Note, to emphasize -- there's
no method to "switch to this target stack". Instead, you switch the
current inferior, and that implicitly switches the target stack.
In some spots, we need to iterate over all inferiors so that we reach
all target stacks.
Native targets are still singletons. There's always only a single
instance of such targets.
Remote targets however, we'll have one instance per remote connection.
The exec target is still a singleton. There's only one instance. I
did not see the point of instanciating more than one exec_target
object.
After vfork, we need to make sure to push the exec target on the new
inferior. See exec_on_vfork.
For type safety, functions that need a {target, ptid} pair to identify
a thread, take a process_stratum_target pointer for target parameter
instead of target_ops *. Some shared code in gdb/nat/ also need to
gain a target pointer parameter. This poses an issue, since gdbserver
doesn't have process_stratum_target, only target_ops. To fix this,
this commit renames gdbserver's target_ops to process_stratum_target.
I think this makes sense. There's no concept of target stack in
gdbserver, and gdbserver's target_ops really implements a
process_stratum-like target.
The thread and inferior iterator functions also gain
process_stratum_target parameters. These are used to be able to
iterate over threads and inferiors of a given target. Following usual
conventions, if the target pointer is null, then we iterate over
threads and inferiors of all targets.
I tried converting "add-inferior" to the gdb::option framework, as a
preparatory patch, but that stumbled on the fact that gdb::option does
not support file options yet, for "add-inferior -exec". I have a WIP
patchset that adds that, but it's not a trivial patch, mainly due to
need to integrate readline's filename completion, so I deferred that
to some other time.
In infrun.c/infcmd.c, the main change is that we need to poll events
out of all targets. See do_target_wait. Right after collecting an
event, we switch the current inferior to an inferior bound to the
target that reported the event, so that target methods can be used
while handling the event. This makes most of the code transparent to
multi-targets. See fetch_inferior_event.
infrun.c:stop_all_threads is interesting -- in this function we need
to stop all threads of all targets. What the function does is send an
asynchronous stop request to all threads, and then synchronously waits
for events, with target_wait, rinse repeat, until all it finds are
stopped threads. Now that we have multiple targets, it's not
efficient to synchronously block in target_wait waiting for events out
of one target. Instead, we implement a mini event loop, with
interruptible_select, select'ing on one file descriptor per target.
For this to work, we need to be able to ask the target for a waitable
file descriptor. Such file descriptors already exist, they are the
descriptors registered in the main event loop with add_file_handler,
inside the target_async implementations. This commit adds a new
target_async_wait_fd target method that just returns the file
descriptor in question. See wait_one / stop_all_threads in infrun.c.
The 'threads_executing' global is made a per-target variable. Since
it is only relevant to process_stratum_target targets, this is where
it is put, instead of in target_ops.
You'll notice that remote.c includes some FIXME notes. These refer to
the fact that the global arrays that hold data for the remote packets
supported are still globals. For example, if we connect to two
different servers/stubs, then each might support different remote
protocol features. They might even be different architectures, like
e.g., one ARM baremetal stub, and a x86 gdbserver, to debug a
host/controller scenario as a single program. That isn't going to
work correctly today, because of said globals. I'm leaving fixing
that for another pass, since it does not appear to be trivial, and I'd
rather land the base work first. It's already useful to be able to
debug multiple instances of the same server (e.g., a distributed
cluster, where you have full control over the servers installed), so I
think as is it's already reasonable incremental progress.
Current limitations:
- You can only resume more that one target at the same time if all
targets support asynchronous debugging, and support non-stop mode.
It should be possible to support mixed all-stop + non-stop
backends, but that is left for another time. This means that
currently in order to do multi-target with gdbserver you need to
issue "maint set target-non-stop on". I would like to make that
mode be the default, but we're not there yet. Note that I'm
talking about how the target backend works, only. User-visible
all-stop mode works just fine.
- As explained above, connecting to different remote servers at the
same time is likely to produce bad results if they don't support the
exact set of RSP features.

Once each inferior has its own target stack, we'll need to make sure
that the right inferior is selected before we call into target
methods.
It kind of sounds worse than it is in practice. Not that many places
need to be concerned.
In thread.c, we add a new switch_to_thread_if_alive function that
centralizes the switching before calls to target_thread_alive. Other
cases are handled with explicit switching.

In non-stop mode, if you resume the program in the background (with
"continue&", for example), then gdb makes sure to not switch the
current thread behind your back. That means that you can be sure that
the commands you type apply to the thread you selected, even if some
other thread that was running in the background hits some event just
while you're typing.
In all-stop mode, however, if you resume the program in the
background, gdb let's the current thread switch behind your back.
This is bogus, of course. All-stop and non-stop background
resumptions should behave the same.
This patch fixes that, and adds a testcase that exposes the bad
behavior in current master.
The fork-running-state.exp changes are necessary because that
preexisting testcase was expecting the old behavior:
Before:
continue &
Continuing.
(gdb)
[Attaching after process 8199 fork to child process 8203]
[New inferior 2 (process 8203)]
info threads
Id Target Id Frame
1.1 process 8199 "fork-running-st" (running)
* 2.1 process 8203 "fork-running-st" (running)
(gdb)
After:
continue &
Continuing.

* 1.1 process 24660 "fork-running-st" (running)
2.1 process 24664 "fork-running-st" (running)
(gdb)
Here we see that before this patch GDB switches current inferior to
the new inferior behind the user's back, as a side effect of handling
the fork.
The delete_exited_threads call in inferior_appeared is there to fix an
issue that Baris found in a previous version of this patch. The
fetch_inferior_event change increases the refcount of the current
thread, and in case the fetched inferior event denotes a thread exit,
the thread will not be deleted right away. A non-deleted but exited
thread stays in the inferior's thread list. This, in turn, causes the
"init_thread_list" call in inferior.c to be skipped. A consequence is
that the global thread ID counter is not restarted if the current
thread exits, and then the inferior is restarted:
(gdb) start

^^^
Notice that GId == 2 above. It should have been "1" instead.
The new tids-git-reset.exp testcase exercises the problem above.

Currently some code in gdb uses build_help with N_(), like:
static const std::string compile_print_help
= gdb::option::build_help (N_("\
I believe this is incorrect. The N_ macro is used to mark text that
should end up in the message catalog, but which will be translated by
a later call to gettext.
However, in this case, there is no later call to gettext, so (if gdb
had translations), this text would remain untranslated.
Instead, I think using the ordinary _() macro is correct here.
Translators will have to know to preserve "%OPTIONS%" in the text --
but that seems both unavoidable and fine.
Tested by rebuilding as there's not much else to do.

This makes "info threads" use the gdb::option framework to process
options. There's only one option today (-gid), and it isn't used much
frequently unless you're looking at matching MI output. Still, this
was in the neighborhood of "thread apply" so I had converted it.
The main advantage is that TAB completion now shows you the available
options, and gives you a hint to what the command accepts as operand
argument, including showing a metasyntactic variable:
(gdb) info threads [TAB]
-gid ID
(gdb) help info threads
Display currently known threads.
Usage: info threads [OPTION]... [ID]...
Options:
-gid
Show global thread IDs.
If ID is given, it is a space-separated list of IDs of threads to display.
Otherwise, all threads are displayed.

The options framework series broken the build with gcc 4.8, or any

like these:

This is a C++11 vs C++14 difference -- C++14 relaxed the rules for
eliding braces.
This commit fixes it by adding the missing (in C++11) braces. Tested

Similarly to the "frame apply" patch, this makes the "thread apply"
family of commands -- "thread apply TID", "thread apply all" and
"taas" use the gdb::option framework for '-'-style options.
No new options are added, but there are some user-visible changes:
- Can now abbreviate and complete "-ascending"
- We now have a completer for "thread apply" commands
Can now complete options ("thread apply all -[TAB]"), and also,
'thread apply all COMMAND[TAB]' now does what you'd expect, by
making use of the new complete_command routine.
- "help" output tweaked with auto-generated option descriptions:
~~~
Usage: thread apply all [OPTION]... COMMAND
Prints per-inferior thread number and target system's thread id
followed by COMMAND output.
By default, an error raised during the execution of COMMAND
aborts "thread apply".
Options:
-ascending
Call COMMAND for all threads in ascending order.
The default is descending order.
-q
Disables printing the thread information.
-c
Print any error raised by COMMAND and continue.
-s
Silently ignore any errors or empty output produced by COMMAND.

* gdb.base/options.exp (test-thread-apply): New.
(top level): Call it.
With the following patch, we'll be able to explicitly tell "thread
apply" where options end, using the "--" delimiter. A test added by
that patch caught a pre-existing inconsistency:
(gdb) thread apply 1 -- -
Invalid thread ID: -
(gdb) frame apply level 0 -- -
#0 main () at threads.c:55
Cannot enable the TUI when output is not a terminal
Above, "thread apply" did not try to run the command, while "frame
apply level" did. ("-" is a valid TUI command.)
That "-" is past "--", so it should have not been confused with an
invalid TID, in the "thread apply" case.
That error actually doesn't come from the TID parser, but instead from
thread_apply_command directly.
So that error/check needs tweaking. The next question is what to
tweak it to.
"-" is actually a valid TUI command:
(gdb) help -
Scroll window backward.
Usage: - [WIN] [N]
(gdb) frame apply level 0 -- -
#0 main () at threads.c:55
Cannot enable the TUI when output is not a terminal
While I don't imagine it being useful to use that "-" command with
"thread apply" or "frame apply level", the fact is that you can use it
with "frame apply level", but not with "thread apply". And since it's
an actual command, pedantically it seems right to allow it.
That's what this commit does.
Note: simply removing the "isalpha" check regresses
gdb.multi/tids.exp -- see related commit 3f5b759880.
gdb/ChangeLog:
2019-06-13 Pedro Alves <palves@redhat.com>
* thread.c (thread_apply_command): Check for invalid TID with
isdigit instead of !isalpha.
This adds support for '-'-style options to the "frame apply" family of
commands -- "frame apply COUNT", "frame apply level", "frame apply
all", "faas" and "tfaas".
The -q/-c/-s flags were already supported, -past-main/-past-entry is
new:
~~~
(gdb) help frame apply all
Apply a command to all frames.
Usage: frame apply all [OPTION]... COMMAND
Prints the frame location information followed by COMMAND output.
By default, an error raised during the execution of COMMAND
aborts "frame apply".
Options:
-q
Disables printing the frame location information.
-c
Print any error raised by COMMAND and continue.
-s
Silently ignore any errors or empty output produced by COMMAND.
-past-main [on|off]
Set whether backtraces should continue past "main".
Normally the caller of "main" is not of interest, so GDB will terminate
the backtrace at "main". Set this if you need to see the rest
of the stack trace.
-past-entry [on|off]
Set whether backtraces should continue past the entry point of a program.
Normally there are no callers beyond the entry point of a program, so GDB
will terminate the backtrace there. Set this if you need to see
the rest of the stack trace.
~~~
TAB completion of options is now supported. Also, TAB completion of
COMMAND in "frame apply all COMMAND" does the right thing now, making
use of complete_command, added by the previous patch. E.g.:
(gdb) thread apply all -ascending frame apply all -past-main print -[TAB]
-address -elements -pretty -symbol
-array -null-stop -repeats -union
-array-indexes -object -static-members -vtbl
(gdb) thread apply all -ascending frame apply all -past-main print glo[TAB]
global1 global2
The change to tfaas_command is necessary because otherwise you get
this:
(gdb) tfaas --
Unrecognized option at: frame apply all -s --
That's because the above is equivalent to:
(gdb) thread apply all -s frame apply all -s --
and the "--" instructs "thread apply" to consider everything up to
"--" as its command options. And from that view, "frame" is an
invalid option.
The change makes tfaas be equivalent to:
(gdb) thread apply all -s -- frame apply all -s --

I noticed this inconsistency in the error messages below:
(gdb) print --1
Left operand of assignment is not an lvalue.
(gdb) thread apply 1 print --1
Thread 1 (Thread 0x7ffff7fb6740 (LWP 17805)):
inverted range
The "inverted range" error happens because get_number_trailer returns
0 to indicate error, but number_or_range_parser::get_number is not
checking for that. I tried detected the error there, but that doesn't
work because number_of_range_parser is used in places that _do_ want
to legitimately handle 0. IMO we should fix get_number_trailer's
interface or use something else when we want to parse 0 too.
I've decided to fix it in a different way, similarly to how
number_or_range_parser::finished was changed in commit 529c08b25e
("Add helper functions parse_flags and parse_flags_qcs").
Seems like a good change, even if we tweaked
number_or_range_parser::get_number, as it simplifies
thread_apply_command and makes them consistent with
number_or_range_parser::finished().
We now get the same error message in both cases:
(gdb) print --1
Left operand of assignment is not an lvalue.
(gdb) thread apply 1 print --1

'thread|frame apply CMD' launches CMD so that CMD output goes to a string_file.
This patch ensures that string_file for such CMD output contains
style escape sequences that 'thread|frame apply' will later on
output on the real terminal, so as to have CMD output properly styled.
The idea is to have the class ui_file having overridable methods
to indicate that the output to this ui_file should be done using
'terminal' behaviour such as styling.
Then these methods are overriden in string_file so that a specially
constructed string_file will get output with style escape sequences.
After this patch, the output of CMD by thread|frame apply CMD is styled
similarly as when CMD is launched directly.
Note that string_file (term_out true) could also support wrapping,
but this is not done (yet?).
Tested on debian/amd64.

InferiorThread.handle() returns a python bytes object. We'd like to
be able to pass the output of this function, a thread handle, to
Inferior.thread_from_thread_handle(). Up to now,
thread_from_thread_handle() expects to receive a gdb.Value input.
This commit adds support to also allow a python buffer object to be
passed as the handle.
infpy_thread_from_thread_handle() calls find_thread_by_handle() which
has the obvious functionality. It used to pass the thread handle via
a struct value pointer. I've revised this interface to instead pass a
gdb::array_view<const gdb_byte> object. (Thanks to Tom Tromey for
suggesting this data structure over an earlier version which passed a
gdb_byte pointer and length.)

support for buffer objects as handles.
This rewrites gdb's TRY/CATCH to plain C++ try/catch. The patch was
largely written by script, though one change (to a comment in
common-exceptions.h) was reverted by hand.

[Inferior 1 (process 684960) exited normally]
(gdb) run
Segmentation fault
The crash happens while processing the CREATE_PROCESS_DEBUG_EVENT
for the second run; in particular, we have in get_windows_debug_event:
| case CREATE_PROCESS_DEBUG_EVENT:
| [...]
| if (main_thread_id)
| windows_delete_thread (ptid_t (current_event.dwProcessId, 0,
| main_thread_id),
| 0);
The problem is that main_thread_id is the TID of the main thread from
the *previous* inferior, and this code is trying to delete that
thread. The problem is that it is constructing a PTID by pairing
the TID of the previous inferior with the PID of the new inferior.
As a result, when we dig inside windows_delete_thread to see
how it would handle that, we see...
| delete_thread (find_thread_ptid (ptid));
Since the PTID is bogus, we end up calling delete_thread with
a NULL thread_info. It used to be harmless, turning the delete_thread
into a nop, but the following change...
| commit 0803633106
| Date: Thu Nov 22 16:09:14 2018 +0000
| Subject: Per-inferior thread list, thread ranges/iterators, down with ALL_THREADS, etc.
... changed delete_thread to get the list of threads from
the inferior, which itself is now accessed via the given
thread_info. This is the corresponding diff that shows the change:
| - for (tp = thread_list; tp; tpprev = tp, tp = tp->next)
| + for (tp = thr->inf->thread_list; tp; tpprev = tp, tp = tp->next)
As a result of this, passing a NULL thread_info is no longer
an option!
Stepping back a bit, the reason behind deleting the thread late
could be found in a patch from Dec 2003, which laconically explains:
| commit 87a45c9606
| Date: Fri Dec 26 00:39:04 2003 +0000
|
| * win32-nat.c (get_child_debug_event): Keep main thread id around
| even after thread exits since Windows insists on continuing to
| report events against it.
A look at the gdb-patches archives did not provide any additional
clues (https://www.sourceware.org/ml/gdb-patches/2003-12/msg00478.html).
It is not clear whether this is still needed or not. This patch
assumes that whatever isue there was, the versions of Windows
we currently support no longer have it.
With that in mind, this commit fixes the issue by deleting the thread
when the inferior sends the exit-process event as opposed to deleting it
later, while starting a new inferior.
This also restores the printing of the thread-exit notification for
the main thread, which was missing before. Looking at the transcript
of the example shown above, we can see 4 thread creation notifications,
and only 3 notifications for thread exits. Now creation and exit
notifications are balanced.
In the handling of EXIT_THREAD_DEBUG_EVENT, the main_thread_id
check is removed because deemed unnecessary: The main thread was
introduced by a CREATE_PROCESS_DEBUG_EVENT, and thus the kernel
is expected to report its death via EXIT_PROCESS_DEBUG_EVENT.
And finally, because the behavior of delete_thread did change
(albeit when getting a value we probably never expected to receive),
this patch also adds a gdb_assert. The purpose is to provide some
immediate information in case there are other callers that mistakenly
call delete_thread with a NULL thread info. This can be useful
information when direct debugging of GDB isn't an option.
gdb/ChangeLog:
* thread.c (delete_thread_1): Add gdb_assert that THR is not
NULL. Initialize tpprev to NULL instead of assigning it
to NULL on the next statement.
* windows-nat.c (windows_delete_thread): Remove check for
main_thread_id before printing thread exit notifications.
(get_windows_debug_event) <EXIT_THREAD_DEBUG_EVENT>:
Remove thread ID check against main_thread_id.
<CREATE_PROCESS_DEBUG_EVENT>: Remove call to
windows_delete_thread.
<EXIT_PROCESS_DEBUG_EVENT>: Add call to windows_delete_thread.
This commit applies all changes made after running the gdb/copyright.py
script.
Note that one file was flagged by the script, due to an invalid
copyright header
(gdb/unittests/basic_string_view/element_access/char/empty.cc).
As the file was copied from GCC's libstdc++-v3 testsuite, this commit
leaves this file untouched for the time being; a patch to fix the header
was sent to gcc-patches first.
gdb/ChangeLog:
Update copyright year range in all GDB files.
As preparation for multi-target, this patch makes each inferior have
its own thread list.
This isn't absolutely necessary for multi-target, but simplifies
things. It originally stemmed from the desire to eliminate the
init_thread_list calls sprinkled around, plus it makes it more
efficient to iterate over threads of a given inferior (no need to
always iterate over threads of all inferiors).
We still need to iterate over threads of all inferiors in a number of
places, which means we'd need adjust the ALL_THREADS /
ALL_NON_EXITED_THREADS macros. However, naively tweaking those macros
to have an extra for loop, like:
#define ALL_THREADS (thr, inf) \
for (inf = inferior_list; inf; inf = inf->next) \
for (thr = inf->thread_list; thr; thr = thr->next)
causes problems with code that does "break" or "continue" within the
ALL_THREADS loop body. Plus, we need to declare the extra "inf" local
variable in order to pass it as temporary variable to ALL_THREADS
(etc.)
It gets even trickier when we consider extending the macros to filter
out threads matching a ptid_t and a target. The macros become tricker
to read/write. Been there.
An alternative (which was my next attempt), is to replace the
ALL_THREADS etc. iteration style with for_each_all_threads,
for_each_non_exited_threads, etc. functions which would take a
callback as parameter, which would usually be passed a lambda.
However, I did not find that satisfactory at all, because the
resulting code ends up a little less natural / more noisy to read,
write and debug/step-through (due to use of lambdas), and in many
places where we use "continue;" to skip to the next thread now need to
use "return;". (I ran into hard to debug bugs caused by a
continue/return confusion.)
I.e., before:
ALL_NON_EXITED_THREADS (tp)
{
if (tp->not_what_I_want)
continue;
// do something
}
would turn into:
for_each_non_exited_thread ([&] (thread_info *tp)
{
if (tp->not_what_I_want)
return;
// do something
});
Lastly, the solution I settled with was to replace the ALL_THREADS /
ALL_NON_EXITED_THREADS / ALL_INFERIORS macros with (C++20-like) ranges
and iterators, such that you can instead naturaly iterate over
threads/inferiors using range-for, like e.g,.:
// all threads, including THREAD_EXITED threads.
for (thread_info *tp : all_threads ())
{ .... }
// all non-exited threads.
for (thread_info *tp : all_non_exited_threads ())
{ .... }
// all non-exited threads of INF inferior.
for (thread_info *tp : inf->non_exited_threads ())
{ .... }
The all_non_exited_threads() function takes an optional filter ptid_t as
parameter, which is quite convenient when we need to iterate over
threads matching that filter. See e.g., how the
set_executing/set_stop_requested/finish_thread_state etc. functions in
thread.c end up being simplified.
Most of the patch thus is about adding the infrustructure for allowing
the above. Later on when we get to actual multi-target, these
functions/ranges/iterators will gain a "target_ops *" parameter so
that e.g., we can iterate over all threads of a given target that
match a given filter ptid_t.
The only entry points users needs to be aware of are the
all_threads/all_non_exited_threads etc. functions seen above. Thus,
those functions are declared in gdbthread.h/inferior.h. The actual
iterators/ranges are mainly "internals" and thus are put out of view
in the new thread-iter.h/thread-iter.c/inferior-iter.h files. That
keeps the gdbthread.h/inferior.h headers quite a bit more readable.
A common/safe-iterator.h header is added which adds a template that
can be used to build "safe" iterators, which are forward iterators
that can be used to replace the ALL_THREADS_SAFE macro and other
instances of the same idiom in future.
There's a little bit of shuffling of code between
gdbthread.h/thread.c/inferior.h in the patch. That is necessary in
order to avoid circular dependencies between the
gdbthread.h/inferior.h headers.
As for the init_thread_list calls sprinkled around, they're all
eliminated by this patch, and a new, central call is added to
inferior_appeared. Note how also related to that, there's a call to
init_wait_for_inferior in remote.c that is eliminated.
init_wait_for_inferior is currently responsible for discarding skipped
inline frames, which had to be moved elsewhere. Given that nowadays
we always have a thread even for single-threaded processes, the
natural place is to delete a frame's inline frame info when we delete
the thread. I.e., from clear_thread_inferior_resources.

value in frames of threads that have such local var.
To make the life of the user easier, the most typical use cases
have shortcuts :
taas : shortcut for 'thread apply all -s'
tfaas : shortcut for 'thread apply all -s frame apply all -s"
An example usage :
tfaas p some_local_var_somewhere
same as the longer:
'thread apply all -s frame apply all -s p some_local_var_somewhere'

It's long annoyed me that "info threads"'s columns are misaligned.
Particularly the "Target Id" column's content is usually longer than
the specified column width, so the table ends up with the "Frame"
column misaligned. For example, currently we get this:
(gdb) info threads
Id Target Id Frame
1 Thread 0x7ffff7fb5740 (LWP 9056) "threads" 0x00007ffff7bc28ad in __pthread_join (threadid=140737345763072, thread_return=0x7fffffffd3e8) at pthread_join.c:90
2 Thread 0x7ffff7803700 (LWP 9060) "function0" thread_function0 (arg=0x0) at threads.c:90
* 3 Thread 0x7ffff7002700 (LWP 9061) "threads" thread_function1 (arg=0x1) at threads.c:106
The fact that the "Frame" heading is in a weird spot is particularly
annoying.
This commit turns the above into into this:
(gdb) info threads
Id Target Id Frame
1 Thread 0x7ffff7fb5740 (LWP 7548) "threads" 0x00007ffff7bc28ad in __pthread_join (threadid=140737345763072, thread_return=0x7fffffffd3e8) at pthread_join.c:90
2 Thread 0x7ffff7803700 (LWP 7555) "function0" thread_function0 (arg=0x0) at threads.c:91
* 3 Thread 0x7ffff7002700 (LWP 7557) "threads" thread_function1 (arg=0x1) at threads.c:104
It does that by computing the max width of the "Target Id" column and
using that as column width when creating the table.
This results in calling target_pid_to_str / target_extra_thread_info /
target_thread_name twice for each thread, but I think that it doesn't
matter in practice performance-wise, because the remote target caches
the info, and with native targets it shouldn't be noticeable. It
could matter if we have many threads (say, thousands), but then "info
threads" is practically useless in such a scenario anyway -- better
thread filtering and aggregation would be necessary.
(Note: I have an old branch somewhere where I attempted at making
gdb's "info threads"-like tables follow a model/view design, so that a
general framework took care of issues like these, but it's incomplete
and a much bigger change. This patch doesn't prevent going in that
direction in the future, of course.)

* gdb.threads/names.exp: Adjust expected "info threads" output.
In my multi-target work, I need to add a few more
scoped_restore_current_thread and switch_to_thread calls in some
places, and in some lower-level places I was fighting against the fact
that switch_to_thread reads/refreshes the stop_pc global.
Instead of piling on workarounds, let's just finally eliminate the
stop_pc global. We already have the per-thread
thread_info->suspend.stop_pc field, so it's mainly a matter of using
that more/instead.

This is more preparation bits for multi-target support.
In a multi-target scenario, we need to address the case of different
processes/threads running on different targets that happen to have the
same PID/PTID. E.g., we can have both process 123 in target 1, and
process 123 in target 2, while they're in reality different processes
running on different machines. Or maybe we've loaded multiple
instances of the same core file. Etc.
To address this, in my WIP multi-target branch, threads and processes
are uniquely identified by the (process_stratum target_ops *, ptid_t)
and (process_stratum target_ops *, pid) tuples respectively. I.e.,
each process_stratum instance has its own thread/process number space.
As you can imagine, that requires passing around target_ops * pointers
in a number of functions where we're currently passing only a ptid_t
or an int. E.g., when we look up a thread_info object by ptid_t in
find_thread_ptid, the ptid_t alone isn't sufficient.
In many cases though, we already have the thread_info or inferior
pointer handy, but we "lose" it somewhere along the call stack, only
to look it up again by ptid_t/pid. Since thread_info or inferior
objects know their parent target, if we pass around thread_info or
inferior pointers when possible, we avoid having to add extra
target_ops parameters to many functions, and also, we eliminate a
number of by ptid_t/int lookups.
So that's what this patch does. In a bit more detail:
- Changes a number of functions and methods to take a thread_info or
inferior pointer instead of a ptid_t or int parameter.
- Changes a number of structure fields from ptid_t/int to inferior or
thread_info pointers.
- Uses the inferior_thread() function whenever possible instead of
inferior_ptid.
- Uses thread_info pointers directly when possible instead of the
is_running/is_stopped etc. routines that require a lookup.
- A number of functions are eliminated along the way, such as:
int valid_gdb_inferior_id (int num);
int pid_to_gdb_inferior_id (int pid);
int gdb_inferior_id_to_pid (int num);
int in_inferior_list (int pid);
- A few structures and places hold a thread_info pointer across
inferior execution, so now they take a strong reference to the
(refcounted) thread_info object to avoid the thread_info pointer
getting stale. This is done in enable_thread_stack_temporaries and
in the infcall.c code.
- Related, there's a spot in infcall.c where using a RAII object to
handle the refcount would be handy, so a gdb::ref_ptr specialization
for thread_info is added (thread_info_ref, in gdbthread.h), along
with a gdb_ref_ptr policy that works for all refcounted_object types
(in common/refcounted-object.h).

This converts observers from using a special source-generating script
to be plain C++. This version of the patch takes advantage of C++11
by using std::function and variadic templates; incorporates Pedro's
patches; and renames the header file to "observable.h" (this change
eliminates the need for a clean rebuild).
Note that Pedro's patches used a template lambda in tui-hooks.c, but
this failed to compile on some buildbot instances (presumably due to
differing C++ versions); I replaced this with an ordinary template
function.
Regression tested on the buildbot.

This started as a patch to change enable_thread_stack_temporaries to
be an RAII class, but then I noticed that this code used a VEC, so I
went ahead and did a bit more C++-ification, changing
stack_temporaries_enabled to a bool and changing stack_temporaries to
a std::vector.
Regression tested by the buildbot.

There are multiple definitions of the private_thread_info structure
compiled in the same GDB build. Because of the one definition rule, we
need to change this if we want to be able to make them non-POD (e.g. use
std::vector fields). This patch creates a class hierarchy, with
private_thread_info being an abstract base class, and all the specific
implementations inheriting from it.
In order to poison XNEW/xfree for non-POD types, it is also needed to
get rid of the xfree in thread_info::~thread_info, which operates on an
opaque type. This is replaced by thread_info::priv now being a
unique_ptr, which calls the destructor of the private_thread_info
subclass when the thread is being destroyed.
Including gdbthread.h from darwin-nat.h gave these errors:
/Users/simark/src/binutils-gdb/gdb/gdbthread.h:609:3: error: must use 'class' tag to refer to type 'thread_info' in this scope
thread_info *m_thread;
^
class
/usr/include/mach/thread_act.h:240:15: note: class 'thread_info' is hidden by a non-type declaration of 'thread_info' here
kern_return_t thread_info
^
It turns out that there is a thread_info function in the Darwin/XNU/mach API:
http://web.mit.edu/darwin/src/modules/xnu/osfmk/man/thread_info.html
Therefore, I had to add the class keyword at a couple of places in gdbthread.h,
I don't really see a way around it.
