GDB currently fails to fetch the list of already-registered JIT
modules on attach.
Nothing is calling jit_inferior_init, which is what is responsible for
walking the JIT object list at init time.
Despite the misleading naming, jit_inferior_created_hook ->
jit_inferior_init is only called when the inferior execs.
This regressed with the fix for PR gdb/13431 (03bef283c2):
https://sourceware.org/ml/gdb-patches/2012-02/msg00023.html which
removed the inferior_created (jit_inferior_created_observer)
observer.
Adding an inferior_created observer back fixes the issue.
In turn, this exposes a bug in jit_breakpoint_re_set_internal as well,
which is returning the wrong result when we already have the
breakpoint at the right address.

Nowadays, GDB can't unwind successfully from epilogue on arm,

in this case, prologue unwinder is used. It analyzes the prologue and
get the offsets of saved registers to SP. However, in epilogue, the
SP has been restored, prologue unwinder gets the registers from the
wrong address, and even the frame id is wrong.
In reverse debugging, this case (program stops at the last instruction
of function) happens quite frequently due to the reverse execution.
There are many test fails due to missing epilogue unwinder.
This adds epilogue unwinder, but the frame cache is still get by
prologue unwinder except that SP is fixed up separately, because SP
is restored in epilogue.
This patch fixes many fails in solib-precsave.exp, and solib-reverse.exp.

On powerpc64, qSymbol query may require gdb to read a function
descriptor, sending a vFile packet to gdbserver. Thus, we need
to handle 'v' packet in look_up_one_symbol.
vFile replies may be quite long, and require reallocating own_buf.
Since handle_v_requests assumes the buffer is the static global own_buf
from server.c and reallocates it, we need to make own_buf global and
use it from look_up_one_symbol instead of using our own auto variable.
I've also done the same change in relocate_instruction, just in case.
On gdb side, in remote_check_symbols, rs->buf may be clobbered by vFile
handling, yet we need its contents for the reply (the symbol name is
stored there). Allocate a new buffer instead.
This broke fast tracepoints on powerpc64, due to errors in reading IPA
symbols.

This patch addresses a failure in
gdb.threads/forking-threads-plus-breakpoint.exp:
FAIL: gdb.threads/forking-threads-plus-breakpoint.exp: cond_bp_target=1:
detach_on_fork=on: inferior 1 exited (timeout)
Cause:
A fork event was reported to GDB before GDB knew about the parent
thread, followed immediately by a breakpoint event in a different
thread. The parent thread was subsequently added via
remote_notice_new_inferior in process_stop_reply, but when the thread
was added the thread_info.state was set to THREAD_STOPPED. The fork
event was then handled correctly, but when the fork parent was resumed
via a call to keep_going, the state was unchanged.
The breakpoint event was then handled, which caused all the
non-breakpoint threads to be stopped. When the breakpoint thread was
resumed, all the non-breakpoint threads were resumed via
infrun.c:restart_threads. Our old fork parent wasn't restarted,
because it still had thread_info.state set to THREAD_STOPPED.
Ultimately the program under debug hung waiting for a pthread_join
while the old fork parent was stopped forever by GDB.
Fix:
Since this is non-stop, then the bug is that the thread should have
been added in THREAD_RUNNING state. Consider that infrun may be
pulling target events out of the target_ops backend into its own event
queue, but, not process them immediately. E.g., infrun may be
stopping all threads temporarily for a step-over-breakpoint operation
for thread A (stop_all_threads). The waitstatus of all threads is
thus left pending in the thread structure (save_status), including the
fork event of thread B. Right at this point, if the user does "info
threads", that should show thread B (the fork parent) running, not
stopped, even if internally, gdb is holding it paused for a little
bit.
Thus if in non-stop mode, always add new threads in the external
user-visible THREAD_RUNNING state. Change remote_notice_new_inferior
to accept the internal executing state of the thread instead, with
EXECUTING set to 1 when we discover a thread that is running on the
target (such as through remote_update_thread_list), and 0 when the
thread is really paused (such as when we see a stop reply).
Tested on x86_64 Linux and Nios II Linux target with x86 Linux host.

lookup_symbol is often called with user input. Consequently, any

I didn't manage to usefully split this further into smaller
independent pieces, so:
- Use "struct buffer" more.
- Split out the responsibility of composing a complete command line
from multiple input lines split with backslash
(
E.g.:
(gdb) print \
1 + \
2
$1 = 3
(gdb)
)
to a separate function. Note we don't need the separate
readline_input_state and more_to_come globals at all. They were
just obfuscating the logic.
- Factor out the tricky mostly duplicated code in
command_line_handler and command_line_input.
gdb/ChangeLog
2016-03-09 Pedro Alves <palves@redhat.com>
* event-top.c (more_to_come): Delete.
(struct readline_input_state): Delete.
(readline_input_state): Delete.
(get_command_line_buffer): New function.
(command_handler): Update comments. Don't handle NULL commands
here. Do not execute commented lines.
(command_line_append_input_line): New function.
(handle_line_of_input): New function, partly based on
command_line_handler and command_line_input.
(command_line_handler): Rewrite.
* event-top.h (command_handler): New declaration.
(command_loop): Defer command execution to command_handler.
(command_line_input): Update comments. Simplify, using struct
buffer and handle_line_of_input.
* top.h (struct buffer): New forward declaration.
(handle_line_of_input): New declaration.
There doesn't seem to be much point in trying to reuse this buffer.
Prefer simplicity instead.
(In case you're wondering whether this fixes an off-by-one: linelength
is misnamed; it's really a size including terminating null char.)
gdb/ChangeLog:
2016-03-09 Pedro Alves <palves@redhat.com>
* event-top.c (command_line_handler): Use xfree + xstrdup instead
of xrealloc + strcpy.
* main.c (captured_main): Use xstrdup instead of xmalloc plus
manual clear.
* top.c (saved_command_line): Rewrite comment.
(saved_command_line_size): Delete.
(command_line_input): Use xfree + xstrdup instead of xrealloc +
strcpy.
* top.h (saved_command_line_size): Delete declaration.

(gdb_readline_no_editing_callback): Use struct buffer instead

gdb/ChangeLog:
2016-03-09 Pedro Alves <palves@redhat.com>
* common/buffer.h (buffer_grow_char): New function.
* top.c: Include buffer.h.
(gdb_readline_no_editing): Rename 'prompt_arg' parameter to
'prompt'. Use struct buffer instead of xrealloc.
Name this such that it's clearer that this is not a wrapper for the
real readline, but instead a replacement that provides no command line
editing features.
gdb/ChangeLog:
2016-03-09 Pedro Alves <palves@redhat.com>
* defs.h (gdb_readline): Delete declaration.
* top.c (gdb_readline): Rename to ...
(gdb_readline_no_editing): ... this, and make static.
These comments are out of date -- we no longer call gdb_readline. And
I think that mentioning the event loop is more useful here than
whatever GO32 issue had with gdb_readline, which may even no longer be
an issue.
gdb/ChangeLog:
2016-03-09 Pedro Alves <palves@redhat.com>
* utils.c (prompt_for_continue): Update comments.
The comments and existence of this global are a bit of misleading
obfuscation, since this is only ever used to print the prompt
annotation, and never changes. Just hardcode "prompt" where
necessary, as done for most other annotations.
gdb/ChangeLog:
2016-03-09 Pedro Alves <palves@redhat.com>
* event-top.c (async_annotation_suffix): Delete.
(top_level_prompt, command_line_handler): Don't use
'async_annotation_suffix' and simplify.
* event-top.h (async_annotation_suffix): Delete declaration.
(init_main): Remove reference to 'async_annotation_suffix'.
I checked, and Insight doesn't set this.
gdb/ChangeLog:
2016-03-09 Pedro Alves <palves@redhat.com>
* top.c (window_hook): Delete.
(command_loop): Remove references to window_hook.
I happened to break this locally and the testsuite didn't notice it.
Add some tests.
gdb/ChangeLog:
2016-03-09 Pedro Alves <palves@redhat.com>
* gdb.base/command-line-input.exp: New file.
Previously, backchain was read as a signed quantity, resulting in
addresses like 0xfffffffffffeded0 instead of 0xfffeded0 returned by
unwinder on 32-bit powerpc. While normally such addresses are masked
off, this causes problems for tracepoints, since 0xfffffffffffeded0
is considered unavailable.
Fixes a test failure in gdb.trace/entry-values.exp.
gdb/ChangeLog:
* corefile.c (safe_read_memory_unsigned_integer): New function.
* gdbcore.h (safe_read_memory_unsigned_integer): New prototype.
* rs6000-tdep.c (rs6000_frame_cache): Read backchain as unsigned.
gdb/ChangeLog:
* rs6000-tdep.c: Add "ax.h" and "ax-gdb.h" includes.
(rs6000_gen_return_address): New function.
(rs6000_gdbarch_init): Wire in the above.
Functions compiled with the gcc option `-mhotpatch' may start with a
branch-never BRCL instruction as a 6-byte NOP. And functions compiled
with `-mstack-size' contain a BRC instruction in their prologue that is
actually a conditional trap. Both of these special jumps cause the
prologue parser to stop and yield bad unwinding results.
This change makes the prologue analyzer recognize such special jumps and
ignore them.
gdb/ChangeLog:
* s390-linux-tdep.c (s390_analyze_prologue): Ignore BRC and BRCL
instructions that do nothing or are conditional traps.
When determining the frame ID of an inline frame, GDB currently asserts
that a valid ID of the underlying real frame is found, and that it does
not match outer_frame_id. From inline_frame_this_id():
/* For now, require we don't match outer_frame_id either (see
comment above). */
gdb_assert (!frame_id_eq (*this_id, outer_frame_id));
However, this assertion may fail when the real frame's unwinder can not
determine the frame ID. This happened on an s390x target with a binary
that lacked call frame information and also confused the prologue
analyzer, because then s390_frame_this_id() left the frame ID at its
default.
To fix this, this change enhances s390_frame_this_id such that an
unavailable-stack frame ID is built if no frame base can be determined
but the function address is available.
gdb/ChangeLog:
* s390-linux-tdep.c (s390_prologue_frame_unwind_cache): Store
frame func's PC in info->func before any other failure can occur.
(s390_frame_this_id): Use frame_id_build_unavailable_stack if
info->func has been filled out.
It's not possible today to select some of the osabis by name.
Specifically, those that have spaces in their names and then the first
word is ambiguous...
For example:
(gdb) set osabi <TAB>
[...]
FreeBSD ELF
FreeBSD a.out
[...]
(gdb) set osabi FreeBSD ELF
Ambiguous item "FreeBSD ELF".
In reality, because "set osabi" is an enum command, that was
equivalent to trying "set osabi FreeBSD", which is then obviously
ambiguous, because of "FreeBSD ELF" and "FreeBSD a.out".
Also, even if the first word is not ambiguous, we actually ignore
whatever comes after the first word:
(gdb) set osabi GNU/Linux
(gdb) show osabi
The current OS ABI is "GNU/Linux".
The default OS ABI is "GNU/Linux".
(gdb) set osabi Windows SomeNonsense
^^^^^^^^^^^^
(gdb) show osabi
The current OS ABI is "Windows CE".
The default OS ABI is "GNU/Linux".
(gdb)
Fix this by avoiding spaces in osabi names.
We could instead make "set osabi" have a custom set hook, or
alternatively make the enum set hook (in cli-setshow.c) handle values
with spaces, but OTOH, I have a feeling that could cause trouble.
E.g., in cases where we might want to write more than one enum value
in the same line. We could support quoting as workaround, but, not
sure we want that. "No spaces" seems like a simpler rule.
gdb/ChangeLog:
2016-03-09 Pedro Alves <palves@redhat.com>
* osabi.c (gdb_osabi_names): Avoid spaces in osabi names.
Even though "set architecture" presents fr300 as option:
(gdb) set architecture fr<TAB>
fr300 fr400 fr450 fr500 fr550 frv
Actually selecting fr300 doesn't work:
(gdb) set architecture fr300
Architecture `fr300' not recognized.
The target architecture is set automatically (currently i386)
(gdb)
This just looks like an obvious oversight. Looking around gcc and
binutils sources, FR300 is basically a FR500 specialized for DSP and
low power.
gdb/ChangeLog:
2016-03-09 Pedro Alves <palves@redhat.com>
* frv-tdep.c (frv_gdbarch_init): Handle bfd_mach_fr300.
This fixes:
$ ./gdb -q -ex "set endian big" -ex "set architecture cris"
The target is assumed to be big endian
.../src/gdb/cris-tdep.c:4051: internal-error: cris_gdbarch_init: big endian byte order in info
A problem internal to GDB has been detected,
further debugging may prove unreliable.
Quit this debugging session? (y or n)
The "set cris-version" command can likewise cause internal errors.
The gdbarch init routine should be returning 0 to reject the
architecture instead of internal erroring on user input.
gdb/ChangeLog:
2016-03-09 Pedro Alves <palves@redhat.com>
* cris-tdep.c (cris_gdbarch_init): Return 0 if the info's byte
order is BFD_ENDIAN_BIG or if the cris version is unsupported.
Running the testsuite with a gdb configured with --enable-libmcheck
reveals a problem:
(gdb) ptype 3 * 2.0

UNRESOLVED: gdb.dlang/expression.exp: ptype 0x1p-52L
Even though this shows up with Ada and D, it's easy to reproduce in C
too. We just need to print a long double, when the current arch is
32-bit, which is the default when gdb starts up:
$ ./gdb -q -ex "ptype 1.0L"

type = long double
(gdb)
Even if the target and host floating-point formats match, the length
of the types might still be different. On x86, long double is the
80-bit extended precision type on both 32-bit and 64-bit ABIs, but by
default it is stored as 12 bytes on 32-bit, and 16 bytes on 64-bit,
for alignment reasons. Several places in doublest.c already consider
this, but floatformat_to_doublest and floatformat_from_doublest miss
it. E.g., convert_typed_floating and store_typed_floating,
Tested on x86-64 Fedora 23 with --enable-libmcheck, where it fixes the

The trouble is that hppa_linux_init_abi overrides the default
long_double_bit set by the generic hppa-tdep.c:
set_gdbarch_long_double_bit (gdbarch, 128);
set_gdbarch_long_double_format (gdbarch, floatformats_ia64_quad);
with:
/* On hppa-linux, currently, sizeof(long double) == 8. There has been
some discussions to support 128-bit long double, but it requires some
more work in gcc and glibc first. */
set_gdbarch_long_double_bit (gdbarch, 64);
which misses overriding the long_double_format, so we end with a weird
combination of:
set_gdbarch_long_double_bit (gdbarch, 64);
set_gdbarch_long_double_format (gdbarch, floatformats_ia64_quad);
Weird because floatformats_ia64_quad's totalsize is longer than 64-bits.
The floatformat conversion routines use the struct floatformat's
totalsize (in bits) to know how much to copy/convert, thus the buffer
overruns.
gdb/ChangeLog:
2016-03-09 Pedro Alves <palves@redhat.com>

Given two or more modules that import each other's scope, the current symbol
lookup routines would go round in circles looking through each import from
each module, possibly checking the same module twice or more until all possible
paths are marked as "searched".
Given enough modules, this causes an exponential slowdown in time taken to find
symbols that do exist, and infinite recursion when they don't.

When encoding the agent expression operation ax_reg or ax_reg_mask, the
register number used is internal to GDB. However GDBServer expects a tdesc
based number.
This usually does not cause a problem since at the moment, for raw
registers GDBServer R trace action ignores the register mask and just
collects all registers.
It can be a problem, however with pseudo registers on some platforms if the
tdesc number doesn't match the GDB internal register number.
This is the case with ARM, the upcoming ARM tracepoint support, fails
these test cases without this patch:
gdb.trace/collection.exp: collect register locals collectively:*
GDBSever would exit with: unhandled register size
Since the register number is not mapped.
This patch fixes these issues by calling gdbarch_remote_register_number
before encoding the register number in the ax_reg or ax_reg_mask operation.
Tested on x86 native-gdbserver no regressions observed.
gdb/ChangeLog:
* ax-general.c (ax_reg): Call gdbarch_remote_register_number.
(ax_reg_mask): Likewise.
This unbreaks pending/delayed breakpoints handling, as well as

Ref: https://sourceware.org/ml/gdb-patches/2016-02/msg00681.html
The MIPS kernel reports SI_KERNEL for all kernel generated traps,
instead of TRAP_BRKPT / TRAP_HWBKPT, but GDB isn't aware of this.
Basically, this commit:
- Folds watchpoints logic into check_stopped_by_breakpoint, and
renames it to save_stop_reason.
- Adds GDB_ARCH_IS_TRAP_HWBKPT.
- Makes MIPS set both GDB_ARCH_IS_TRAP_BRPT and
GDB_ARCH_IS_TRAP_HWBKPT to SI_KERNEL. In save_stop_reason, we
handle the case of the same si_code returning true for both
TRAP_BRPT and TRAP_HWBKPT by looking at what the debug registers
say.
Tested on x86-64 Fedora 20, native and gdbserver.

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

When we're looking at a tracefile trace frame where registers are not

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

GDB step cross kernel helpers only works if the kernel helpers are tail

branch/jump to the kernel helper is the last instruction, and the next

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

however, it fails inserting breakpoint there. This problem has already
fixed by GDB, see comments in arm-linux-tdep.c:arm_linux_software_single_step
/* The Linux kernel offers some user-mode helpers in a high page. We can
not read this page (as of 2.6.23), and even if we could then we
couldn't set breakpoints in it, and even if we could then the atomic

instead. */
so we need to do the same thing in GDB side as well. This patch adds
a new field fixup in arm_get_next_pcs_ops, so that we can fix up PC
for arm-linux target. In this way, both GDB and GDBserver can single

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

Currently, you can cd to the gdb/testsuite/ dir and use

I find check-parallel a bit more convenient, and more typo-proof, so

This patch uses the target architecture rather then the objfile
architecture when encoding tracepoint actions.
The target architecture may contain additional registers. E.g. ARM VFP
registers. This information is needed to allow their collection. Since we
can never know whether the registers numbers in the target match the
binary's we have to use tdesc here.
One note about combined debuggers / multi-inferior from Pedro Alves:
In the combined debugger case taking Cell as the practical example that
gdb supports currently:
In that case, the main target_gdbarch() will be powerpc, but you may have set a
tracepoint on _spu_ code, which has a different gdbarch. so for that case,
target_gdbarch would be wrong. I think that in that case, we'd need to
find __the_ target/tdesc gdbarch that is (bfd) compatible with the
objfile's gdbarch.
I think cell/spu gdbserver doesn't support tracepoints, so we can ignore
this for now.
The multi-inferior/process case is somewhat related, but its simpler.
each inferior has its own gdbarch.
That is, target_gdbarch depends on the current inferior selected.
In fact, that just returns inferior->gdbarch nowaways.

tfile_fetch_registers currently wrongly fetches registers using

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

MI is currently using string_to_event_location to enable the use of legacy
linespecs, but using this function (until this patchset) had the (as yet

This patch refactors string_to_event_location, breaking it into two
separate functions:
1) string_to_event_location_basic
A "basic" string parser that implements support for "legacy" linespecs
(linespec, address, and probe locations). This function is intended to
be used by any UI wishing/needing to support this legacy behavior.
2) string_to_event_location
This is now intended as a CLI-only function which adds explicit location
parsing in a CLI-appropriate manner (in the form of traditional option/value
pairs).
Together these patches serve to simplify string-to-event location parsing
for all existing non-CLI interfaces (MI, guile, and python).

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

I started removing that parameter. That allows removing a good chunk of

New bnds fields will be always present for x86 architecture.
Fixup for compatibility layer 32bits has to be fixed.
It was added the nat_siginfo to serving as intermediate step
between kernel provided siginfo and the fix up routine.
When executing compat_siginfo_from_siginfo or
compat_x32_siginfo_from_siginfo first the buffer read from the kernel are
converted into the nat_signfo for homogenization, then the fields of
nat_siginfo are use to set the compat and compat_x32 siginfo fields.
In other to make this conversion independent of the system where gdb
is compiled the most complete version of the siginfo, named as native
siginfo, is used internally as an intermediate step.
Conversion using nat_siginfo is exemplified below:
compat_siginfo_from_siginfo or compat_x32_siginfo_from_siginfo:
buffer (from the kernel) -> nat_siginfo -> 32 / X32 siginfo
(memcpy) (field by field)
siginfo_from_compat_x32_siginfo or siginfo_from_compat_siginfo:
32 / X32 siginfo -> nat_siginfo -> buffer (to the kernel)
(field by field) (memcpy)

For languages with dynamic types, an incorrect program, or uninitialised
variables within a program, could result in an incorrect, overly large
type being associated with a value. Currently, attempting to print such
a variable will result in gdb trying to allocate an overly large buffer.
If this large memory allocation fails then the result can be gdb either
terminating, or (due to memory contention) becoming unresponsive for the
user.
A new user visible variable in gdb helps guard against such problems,
two new commands are available:
set max-value-size
show max-value-size
The 'max-value-size' is the maximum size of memory in bytes that gdb
will allocate for the contents of a value. Any attempt to allocate a
value with a size greater than this will result in an error. The
initial default for this limit is set at 64k, this is based on a similar
limit that exists within the ada specific code.
It is possible for the user to set max-value-size to unlimited, in which
case the old behaviour is restored.

Two small changes so everything builds with latest GCC and its
-Wmisleading-indentation.
In the aarch64-tdep.c case, the two misindented lines should actually be
part of the for loop. It looks like the indentation is all done using
spaces in that file though... I fixed it (changed for tabs + spaces) for
the lines I touched.
In the xcoffread.c case, we can simply remove the braces and fix the
indentation.

For a forthcoming patch, I need a "skip_to_colon" function. I noticed
there are two skip_to_semicolon (one in gdb and one in gdbserver). I
thought we could put it in common/, and generalize it for any character.
It turns out that the strchrnul function does exactly that. I imported
the corresponding module from gnulib, for those systems that do not have
it.
There are probably more places where this function can be used instead
of doing the work by hand (I am looking at
remote-utils.c::look_up_one_symbol).

the root cause of this problem in this case is about linespec and
symtab which produces additional incorrect location and a NULL is added to
bp_tgt->tcommands. I posted a patch
https://sourceware.org/ml/gdb-patches/2015-12/msg00321.html to fix it
in linespec (the fix causes regression), but GDB still shouldn't add
NULL into bp_tgt->tcommands. The logic of build_target_command_list
looks odd to me. If we get something wrong in parse_cmd_to_aexpr (it
returns NULL), we shouldn't continue, instead we should set flag
null_command_or_parse_error. This is what this patch does. In the
meantime, we find build_target_condition_list has the same problem, so
fix it too.

GCC6 will warn about misleading indentation issues like:
gdb/ada-lang.c: In function ‘ada_evaluate_subexp’:
ada-lang.c:11423:9: error: statement is indented as if it were guarded by...
arg1 = unwrap_value (arg1);
^~~~
gdb/ada-lang.c:11421:7: note: ...this ‘else’ clause, but it is not
else
^~~~
In this case it would be a bug except for the fact the if clause already
returned early. So this misindented statement really only got executed
for the else case. But it could easily mislead a reader, so adding a
proper else block is the correct solution.
In case of c-typeprint.c (c_type_print_base) the if statement is indeed
misleadingly indented, but not a bug. Just indent correctly. The inflow.c
(terminal_ours_1) misindented block comes from the removal of an if clause
in commit d9d2d8b which looks correct. Just introduce an else to fixup the
indentation of the block. The linux-record.c misleadingly indented return
statements are just that. Misleading to the reader, but not actual bugs.
Just unindent them so they don't look like they fall under the wrong if
clause.
If you have "set follow-fork child" set, then if you do "info threads"
right after a fork, and before the child reports any other event to
GDB core, you'll see:
(gdb) info threads
Id Target Id Frame
* 1.1 Thread 0x7ffff7fc1740 (LWP 31875) "fork-plus-threa" (running)
2.1 process 31879 "fork-plus-threa" Selected thread is running.
(gdb)
The "Selected thread is running." bit is a bogus error. That was GDB
trying to fetch the current frame of thread 2.1, because the external
runnning state is "stopped", and then throwing an error because the
thread is actually running.
This actually affects all-stop + schedule-multiple as well.
The problem here is that on a fork event, GDB doesn't update the
external parent/child running states.
New comprehensive test included. The "kill inferior 1" / "kill
inferior 2" bits also trip on PR gdb/19494 (hang killing unfollowed
fork children), which was fixed by the previous patch.

linux_nat_kill relies on get_last_target_status to determine whether
the current inferior is stopped at a unfollowed fork/vfork event.
This is bad because many things can happen ever since we caught the
fork/vfork event... This commit rewrites that code to instead walk
the thread list looking for unfollowed fork events, similarly to what
was done for remote.c.
New test included. The main idea of the test is make sure that when
the program stops for a fork catchpoint, and the user kills the
parent, gdb also kills the unfollowed fork child. Since the child
hasn't been added as an inferior at that point, we need some other
portable way to detect that the child is gone. The test uses a pipe
for that. The program forks twice, so you have grandparent, child and
grandchild. The grandchild inherits the write side of the pipe. The
grandparent hangs reading from the pipe, since nothing ever writes to
it. If, when GDB kills the child, it also kills the grandchild, then
the grandparent's pipe read returns 0/EOF and the test passes.
Otherwise, if GDB doesn't kill the grandchild, then the pipe read
never returns and the test times out, like:
FAIL: gdb.base/catch-fork-kill.exp: fork-kind=fork: exit-kind=kill: fork: kill parent (timeout)
FAIL: gdb.base/catch-fork-kill.exp: fork-kind=vfork: exit-kind=kill: vfork: kill parent (timeout)
No regressions on x86_64 Fedora 20. New test passes with gdbserver as
well.

String collection always used ref32 to fetch the string pointer. Make it

As a side effect, this patch changes dup+const+trace+pop sequence used
for collecting the string's address to a trace_quick opcode. This
results in a shorter agent expression.
This appeared to work on x86_64 since it's a little-endian platform, and
malloc (used in gdb.trace/collection.exp) returns addresses in low 4GB.

A relatively recent patch support for explicit locations, and part
of that patch cleaned up the way we parse breakpoint locations.
Unfortunatly, a small regression crept in for "*<EXPR>" breakpoint
locations. In particular, on PIE programs, one can see the issue by
doing the following, with any program:
(gdb) b *main
Breakpoint 1 at 0x51a: file hello.c, line 3.
(gdb) run
Starting program: /[...]/hello
Error in re-setting breakpoint 1: Warning:
Cannot insert breakpoint 1.
Cannot access memory at address 0x51a
Warning:
Cannot insert breakpoint 1.
Cannot access memory at address 0x51a
Just for the record, this regression was introduced by:
commit a06efdd6ef
Date: Tue Aug 11 17:09:35 2015 -0700
Subject: Explicit locations: introduce address locations
What happens is that the patch makes the implicit assumption that
the address computed the first time is static, as if it was designed
to only support litteral expressions (Eg. "*0x1234"). This allows
the shortcut of not re-computing the breakpoint location's address
when re-setting breakpoints.
However, this does not work in general, as demonstrated in the example
above.
This patch plugs that hole simply by saving the original expression
used to compute the address as part of the address location, so as
to then re-evaluate that expression during breakpoint re-set.

In fact, GDB has taken care of this arm/thumb mode changes already,

The lambda function used to sort the enumerator list does not work
properly. This list consists of tuples, (enum label, enum value). The
key function returns x.enumval. enumval not being defined for a tuple,
we see this exception in the test log:
Python Exception <class 'AttributeError'> 'tuple' object has no attribute 'enumval'
The function should return the second item of the tuple, which is the
enumval.
The pretty-printer still worked mostly correctly, except that the
enumeration values were not sorted. The test still passed because the
enumeration values are already sorted where they are defined. The test
also passed despite the exception being printed, because the right output
was printed after the exception:
print (enum flag_enum) (FLAG_1)
Python Exception <type 'exceptions.AttributeError'> 'tuple' objecthas no attribute 'enumval':M
$7 = 0x1 [FLAG_1]
(gdb) PASS: gdb.python/py-pp-maint.exp: print FLAG_1
New in v2:
- Improved test case, I stole Pedro's example directly. It verifies
that the sorting of enumerators by value works, by checking that
printing FOO_MASK appears as FOO_1 | FOO_2 | FOO_3.
I noticed that I could change the regexps to almost anything and the
tests would still pass. I think it was because of the | in there. I
made them more robust by using string_to_regexp. I used curly braces
{ } instead of quoting marks " " for strings, so that I could use
square brackets [ ] in them without having to escape them all. I also
removed the "message" part of the tests, since they are redundant with
the command, and it's just more maintenance to have to update them.
Tested with Python 2.7 and 3.5.

Older versions of FreeBSD supported userland threading via a pure
user-space threading library (N threads scheduled on 1 process) and
a N:M model (N threads scheduled on M LWPs). However, modern FreeBSD
versions only support a M:M threading model where each user thread is
backed by a dedicated LWP. This thread target only supports this
threading model. It also uses ptrace to query and alter LWP state
directly rather than using libthread_db to simplify the implementation.
FreeBSD recently gained support for reporting LWP events (birth and death
of LWPs). GDB will use LWP events when present. For older systems it
fetches the list of LWPs in the to_update_thread_list target op to update
the list of threads on each stop.
This target supports scheduler locking by using ptrace to suspend
individual LWPs as necessary before resuming a process.

Using Python 3.5 (I assume it's the same with 3.4 and lower, but I didn't
test), I see this:
print (enum flag_enum) (FLAG_1)^M
Python Exception <class 'TypeError'> %x format: an integer is required, not gdb.Value: ^M
$7 = ^M
(gdb) FAIL: gdb.python/py-pp-maint.exp: print FLAG_1
Apparently, this idiom, where v is a gdb.Value, was possible with Python 2,
but not with Python 3:
'%x' % v
In Python 2, it would automatically get converted to an integer. To solve
it, I simply added wrapped v in a call to int().
'%x' % int(v)
In Python 2, the int type is implemented with a "long" in C, so on x86-32 it's
32-bits. I was worried that doing int(v) would truncate the value and give
wrong results for enum values > 32-bits. However, the int type != the int
function. The int function does the right thing, selecting the right integer
type for the given value. I tested with large enum values on x86-32 and
Python 2, and everything works as expected.
gdb/ChangeLog:
* python/lib/gdb/printing.py (_EnumInstance.to_string): Explicitly

The POOL48A major opcode was defined in early revisions of the 64-bit
microMIPS ISA, has never been implemented, and was removed before the
64-bit microMIPS ISA specification[1] has been finalized.
This complements commit a6c7053929 ("MIPS/opcodes: Remove microMIPS
48-bit LI instruction").

Fix a bug in `micromips_insn_at_pc_has_delay_slot' in instruction size
determination via `mips_insn_size'. In the microMIPS case the latter
function expects a lone 16-bit instruction word containing the major
opcode regardless of whether the opcode requires another 16-bit word to
follow, to form a complete 32-bit instruction. Code however passes the
16-bit word previously retrieved shifted left by 16 bits. Consequently
`mips_insn_size', which examines the low 16-bit only, always sees 0.
By pure coincidence a major opcode of 0 denotes a 32-bit instruction in
the microMIPS instruction set, so the size of 4 is always returned here,
and the following 16-bit word is then merged in the low 16 bits of the
instruction previously shifted by 16 bits. The resulting 32-bit value
is then passed to `micromips_instruction_has_delay_slot' for delay slot
presence determination. This function in turn first examines the high
16 bits of the instruction word received and ignores the low 16 bits for
16-bit instructions.
Consequently the only effect of this bug is an extraneous memory read
issued to retrieve a subsequent 16-bit word where a 16-bit instruction
is being examined. Which in turn may fail if the instruction is located
right at the end of a readable memory area, in which case the lack of a
delay slot will be reported to the caller, which may be incorrect.
This code is used in breakpoint maintenance, for delay slot avoidance,
so the bug would only trigger for the unlikely case of someone placing
a breakpoint in a delay slot of an instruction which is at the end of
readable memory. Which explains why the bug remained unnoticed so long.
gdb/
* mips-tdep.c (micromips_insn_at_pc_has_delay_slot): Pass
unshifted 16-bit microMIPS instruction word to `mips_insn_size'.
This commit changes GDB like this:
- Program received signal SIGINT, Interrupt.
+ Thread 1 "main" received signal SIGINT, Interrupt.
- Breakpoint 1 at 0x40087a: file threads.c, line 87.
+ Thread 3 "bar" hit Breakpoint 1 at 0x40087a: file threads.c, line 87.
... once the program goes multi-threaded. Until GDB sees a second
thread spawn, the output is still the same as before, per the
discussion back in 2012:
https://www.sourceware.org/ml/gdb/2012-11/msg00010.html
This helps non-stop mode, where you can't easily tell which thread hit
a breakpoint or received a signal:
(gdb) info threads

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

Field syscall_next_pc in struct gdbarch_tdep was to calculate the

This patch makes thumb2_breakpoint static. When writing this patch,
I find the only reason we keep thumb2_breakpoint extern is that it
is used as an argument passed to arm_gdbserver_get_next_pcs. However,
field arm_thumb2_breakpoint is only used in a null check in
thumb_get_next_pcs_raw, so I wonder why do need to pass thumb2_breakpoint
to arm_gdbserver_get_next_pcs.
thumb2_breakpoint was added by Daniel Jacobowitz in order to support
single-step IT block
https://sourceware.org/ml/gdb-patches/2010-01/msg00624.html the logic
there was if we have 32-bit thumb-2 breakpoint defined, we can safely
single-step IT block, otherwise, we can't. Daniel didn't want to use
16-bit thumb BKPT instruction, because it triggers even on instruction
which should be executed. Secondly, using 16-bit thumb illegal
instruction on top of 32-bit thumb instruction may break the meaning of
original IT blocks, because the other 16-bit can be regarded as an
instruction. See more explanations from Daniel's kernel patch
http://www.spinics.net/lists/arm-kernel/msg80476.html
Let us back to this patch, GDB/GDBserver can safely single step
IT block if thumb2_breakpoint is defined, but the single step logic
doesn't have to know the thumb-2 breakpoint instruction. Only
breakpoint insertion mechanism decides to use which breakpoint
instruction. In the software single step code, instead of pass
thumb2_breakpoint, we can pass a boolean variable
has_thumb2_breakpoint indicate whether the target has thumb-2
breakpoint defined, which is equivalent to the original code.

This commit changes GDB to track thread numbers per-inferior. Then,
if you're debugging multiple inferiors, GDB displays
"inferior-num.thread-num" instead of just "thread-num" whenever it
needs to display a thread:
(gdb) info inferiors
Num Description Executable
1 process 6022 /home/pedro/gdb/tests/threads
* 2 process 6037 /home/pedro/gdb/tests/threads
(gdb) info threads
Id Target Id Frame
1.1 Thread 0x7ffff7fc2740 (LWP 6022) "threads" (running)
1.2 Thread 0x7ffff77c0700 (LWP 6028) "threads" (running)
1.3 Thread 0x7ffff7fc2740 (LWP 6032) "threads" (running)
2.1 Thread 0x7ffff7fc1700 (LWP 6037) "threads" (running)
2.2 Thread 0x7ffff77c0700 (LWP 6038) "threads" (running)
* 2.3 Thread 0x7ffff7fc2740 (LWP 6039) "threads" (running)
(gdb)
...
(gdb) thread 1.1
[Switching to thread 1.1 (Thread 0x7ffff7fc2740 (LWP 8155))]
(gdb)
...
etc.
You can still use "thread NUM", in which case GDB infers you're
referring to thread NUM of the current inferior.
The $_thread convenience var and Python's InferiorThread.num attribute
are remapped to the new per-inferior thread number. It's a backward
compatibility break, but since it only matters when debugging multiple
inferiors, I think it's worth doing.
Because MI thread IDs need to be a single integer, we keep giving
threads a global identifier, _in addition_ to the per-inferior number,
and make MI always refer to the global thread IDs. IOW, nothing
changes from a MI frontend's perspective.
Similarly, since Python's Breakpoint.thread and Guile's
breakpoint-thread/set-breakpoint-thread breakpoint methods need to
work with integers, those are adjusted to work with global thread IDs
too. Follow up patches will provide convenient means to access
threads' global IDs.
To avoid potencially confusing users (which also avoids updating much
of the testsuite), if there's only one inferior and its ID is "1",
IOW, the user hasn't done anything multi-process/inferior related,
then the "INF." part of thread IDs is not shown. E.g,.:
(gdb) info inferiors
Num Description Executable
* 1 process 15275 /home/pedro/gdb/tests/threads
(gdb) info threads

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

when GDB goes to python extension, or other language extension, the
SIGINT handler is changed, and is restored when GDB leaves extension
language. GDB only stays in extension language for a very short period
in this case, but if ctrl-c is pressed at that moment, python extension
will handle the SIGINT, and exceptions.KeyboardInterrupt is shown.
Language extension is used in GDB side rather than inferior side,
so GDB should only change SIGINT handler for extension language when
the terminal is ours (not inferior's). This is what this patch does.

(3) powerpc is not the main/default target (--target)
This is because the powerpc sim provides a non-standard API function
sim_spr_register_name which gdb/rs6000-tdep.c utilizes. Since the sim
does not yet support multitarget, only the sim (if one exists) for the
main target is built. When that target isn't powerpc, this function
is not available leading to linking errors:
rs6000-tdep.c:(.text+0x1e34d): undefined reference to
`sim_spr_register_name'
Fix this by only using that API if the sim linked in is the powerpc
sim.

The following change...
commit 43499ea30d
Date: Tue Nov 17 15:17:44 2015 +0000
Subject: [C++/mingw] windows-nat.c casts
... causes a small regression in GDB, where we get the following
warning at startup:
% gdb
C:\[...]\gdb.exe: warning: cannot automatically find executable file or library to read symbols.
Use "file" or "dll" command to load executable/libraries directly.
GNU gdb (GDB) 7.10.50.20151218-cvs (with AdaCore local changes)
[...]
(gdb)
The warning comes from _initialize_loadable which tries to dynamically
load some symbols from kernel32.dll and psapi.dll, and in particular:
hm = LoadLibrary ("psapi.dll");
if (hm)
{
GPA (hm, EnumProcessModules);
GPA (hm, GetModuleInformation);
GPA (hm, GetModuleFileNameEx);
}
The problem is that the new GPA macro assumes that the name of
the variable we use to point to the function, and the name of
its associated symbol are the same. This is mostly the case,
except for GetModuleFileNameEx, where the name is provided by
the GetModuleFileNameEx_name macro (defined differently depending
on whether we are on cygwin or not). As a result, the dynamic
resolution for GetModuleFileNameEx returns NULL, and we trip
the following check which leads to the warning:
if (!EnumProcessModules || !GetModuleInformation || !GetModuleFileNameEx)
{
[...]
warning(_("[...]"));
}
This patch fixes the problem by calling GetProcAddress directly,
rather than through the GPA macro, but in a way which hopefully
avoids the C++ compilation warning that the previous patch was
trying to get rid of.

This patch teaches GDBServer how to software single step on ARM
linux by sharing code with GDB.
The arm_get_next_pcs function in GDB is now shared with GDBServer. So
that GDBServer can use the function to return the possible addresses of
the next PC.
A proper shared context was also needed so that we could share the code,
this context is described in the arm_get_next_pcs structure.

completely in that function, memory reads have also been replaced by
read_memory_unsigned_integer rather than get_frame_memory_unsigned.

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

Since we now rely on PTRACE_EVENT_CLONE being available (added in
Linux 2.5.46), we're relying on NPTL.
This commit removes the support for older LinuxThreads, as well as the
workarounds for vendor 2.4 kernels with NPTL backported.
- Rely on tkill being available.
- Assume gdb doesn't get cancel signals.
- Remove code that checks the LinuxThreads restart and cancel signals
in the inferior.
- Assume that __WALL is available.
- Assume that non-leader threads report WIFEXITED.
- Thus, no longer need to send signal 0 to check whether threads are
still alive.
- Update comments throughout.

The problem is that an instance of stack_item_t is created to adjust
stack for alignment, the item.len is correct, but item.data is buf,
which is wrong, because item.len can be greater than the length of
buf. This patch sets item.data to NULL, and only update sp (no
inferior memory writes on stack for this item).

This patch implements documentation updates for target remote mode fork and
exec events. A summary of the rationale for the changes made here:
* Connecting to a remote target -- explain that the two protocols exist.
* Connecting in target remote mode -- explain invoking gdbserver for target
remote mode, and move remote-specific text from original "Connecting to a
remote target" section.
* Connecting in target extended-remote mode -- promote this section from
"Using the gdbserver Program | Running gdbserver | Multi-Process Mode for
gdbserver". Put it next to the target remote mode section.
* Host and target files -- collect paragraphs dealing with how to locate
symbol files from original sections "Connecting to a remote target" and
"Using the gdbserver program | Connecting to gdbserver".
* Steps for connecting to a remote target -- used to be "Using the
gdbserver program | Connecting to gdbserver"
* Remote connection commands -- used to be the bulk of "Connecting to a
remote target". Added "target extended-remote" commands and information.
gdb/ChangeLog:
* NEWS: Announce fork and exec event support for target remote.
gdb/doc/ChangeLog:
* gdb.texinfo (Forks): Correct Linux kernel version where
fork and exec events are supported, add notes about support
of these events in target remote mode.
(Connecting): Reorganize and clarify distinctions between
target remote, extended-remote, and multiprocess.
Reorganize related text from separate sections into new
sections.
(Server): Note effects of target extended-remote mode.
Delete section on Multi-Process Mode for gdbserver.
Move some text to "Connecting" node.
This patch implements support for fork and exec events with target remote
mode Linux targets. For such targets with Linux kernels 2.5.46 and later,
this enables follow-fork-mode, detach-on-fork and fork and exec
catchpoints.
The changes required to implement this included:
* Don't exit from gdbserver if there are still active inferiors.
* Allow changing the active process in remote mode.
* Enable fork and exec events in remote mode.
* Print "Ending remote debugging" only when disconnecting.
* Combine remote_kill and extended_remote_kill into a single function
that can handle the multiple inferior case for target remote. Also,
the same thing for remote_mourn and extended_remote_mourn.
* Enable process-style ptids in target remote.
* Remove restriction on multiprocess mode in target remote.

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

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

We can't use thread_from_lwp with core files. As mentioned in a comment,
td_ta_map_lwp2thr uses ps_get_thread_area, but we can't use that

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

FAIL: gdb.base/vla-ptr.exp: print td_vla
FAIL: gdb.mi/mi-vla-c99.exp: evaluate complete vla
The first failure in this bunch occurs due to printing an incorrect
result for a variable length array:
print int_vla
$1 = {-1, -1, -1, -1, -1}
The result should actually be this:
$1 = {0, 2, 4, 6, 8}
When I started examining this bug, I found that printing an
individual array element worked correctly. E.g. "print int_vla[2]"
resulted in 4 being printed. I have not looked closely to see why
this is the case.
I found that evaluation of the location expression for int_vla was
causing problems. This is the relevant DWARF entry for int_vla:
<2><15a>: Abbrev Number: 10 (DW_TAG_variable)
<15b> DW_AT_name : (indirect string, offset: 0xbf): int_vla
<15f> DW_AT_decl_file : 1
<160> DW_AT_decl_line : 35
<161> DW_AT_type : <0x393>
<165> DW_AT_location : 4 byte block: 86 7a 94 2 (DW_OP_breg22 (r22): -6; DW_OP_deref_size: 2)
I found that DW_OP_breg22 was providing a correct result.
DW_OP_deref_size was fetching the correct value from memory. However,
the value being fetched should be considered a pointer.
DW_OP_deref_size zero extends the fetched value prior to pushing
it onto the evaluation stack. (The DWARF-4 document specifies this
action; so GDB is faithfully implementing the DWARF-4 specification.)
However, zero extending the pointer is not sufficient for converting
that value to an address for rl78 and (perhaps) other architectures
which define a `pointer_to_address' method. (I suspect that m32c
would have the same problem.)
Ideally, we would perform the pointer to address conversion in
DW_OP_deref_size. We don't, however, know the type of the object
that the address refers to in DW_OP_deref_size. I can't think
of a way to infer the type at that point in the code.
Before proceeding, I should note that there are two other DWARF
operations that could be used in place of DW_OP_deref_size. One of
these is DW_OP_GNU_deref_type. Current GDB implements this operation,
but as is obvious from the name, it is non-standard DWARF. The other
operation is DW_OP_xderef_size. Even though it's part of DWARF-2
through DWARF-4 specifications, it's not presently implemented in GDB.
Present day GCC does not output dwarf expressions containing this
operation either. [Of the two, I like DW_OP_GNU_deref_type better.
Using it avoids the need to specify an "address space identifier".
(GCC, GDB, and other non-free tools all need to agree on the meanings
of these identifiers.)]
Back to the bug analysis...
The closest consumer of the DW_OP_deref_size result is the
DWARF_VALUE_MEMORY case in dwarf2_evaluate_loc_desc_full. At that
location, we do know the object type to which the address is intended
to refer. I added code to perform a pointer to address conversion at
this location. (See the patch.)
I do have some misgivings regarding this patch. As noted earlier, it
would really be better to perform the pointer to address conversion in
DW_OP_deref_size. I can't, however, think of a way to make this work.
Changing GCC to output one of the other aforementioned operations might
be preferable but, as noted earlier, these solutions have problems as
well. Long term, I think it'd be good to have something like
DW_OP_GNU_deref_type become part of the standard. If that can't or
won't happen, we'll need to implement DW_OP_xderef_size.
But until that happens, this patch will work for expressions in which
DW_OP_deref_size occurs last. It should even work for dereferences
followed by adding an offset. I don't think it'll work for more than
one dereference in the same expression.

When `info float` is used on an AMD64 system, GDB prints
floating-point values of x87 registers with raw contents like
0x361a867a8e0527397ce0 or 0xc4f988454a1ddd3cfdab wrongly.
This happens due to truncation to double, after which the former
becomes 0.0, and the latter becomes negative infinity. This is caused
by failed detection of x86-64 host, which results in setting
gdb_host_{float,double,long_double}_format to zeros.
This commit fixes this misdetection, and adds a test to make sure
future commits don't introduce a regression here.

So far, trying to evaluate an expression involving a function call for
which GDB could find multiple function candidates outputs a menu so that
the user can select the one to run. For instance, with the two
following functions:
type New_Integer is new Integer;
function F (I : Integer) return Boolean;
function F (I : New_Integer) return Boolean;
Then we get the following GDB session:
(gdb) print f(1)
Multiple matches for f
[0] cancel
[1] foo.f at foo.adb:23
[2] foo.f at foo.adb.28
>
While the source location information is sufficient in order to
determine which one to select, one has to look for them in source files,
which is not convenient.
This commit tunes this menu in order to also include the list of formal
and return types (if any) in each entry. The above then becomes:
(gdb) print f(1)
Multiple matches for f
[0] cancel
[1] foo.f (integer) return boolean at foo.adb:23
[2] foo.f (foo.new_integer) return boolean at foo.adb.28

Testing with "maint set target-non-stop on" causes regressions in
tests that rely on TARGET_WAITKIND_NO_RESUMED, which isn't modelled on
the RSP. In real all-stop, gdbserver detects the situation and
reporst error to GDB, and so the tests (e.g.,
gdb.threads/no-unwaited-for-left.exp) at fail quickly. But with
"maint set target-non-stop on", GDB instead hangs forever waiting for
a stop reply that never comes, and so the tests take longer to time
out.
This adds a new "N" stop reply packet that maps 1-1 to
TARGET_WAITKIND_NO_RESUMED.

When testing with "maint set target-non-stop on", a few
threading-related tests expose an issue that requires new RSP packets.
Say there are 3 threads running, 1-3. If GDB tries to stop thread 1,
2 and 3, and then waits for their stops, but meanwhile say, thread 2
exits, GDB hangs forever waiting for a stop for thread 2 that won't
ever happen.
This patch fixes the issue by adding support for thread exit events to
the protocol. However, we don't want these always enabled, as they're
useless most of the time, and would slow down remote debugging. So I
made it so that GDB can enable/disable them, and then made gdb do that
around the cases that need it, which currently is only
infrun.c:stop_all_threads.
In turn, if we have thread exit events, then the extra "thread x
exited" traffic slows down attach-many-short-lived-threads.exp enough
that gdb has trouble keeping up with new threads that are spawned
while gdb tries to stop existing ones. To fix that I added support
for the counterpart thread created events too. Enabling those when we
try to stop threads ensures that new threads never get a chance to
themselves start new threads, killing the race.
