I have posted:
TLS variables access for -static -lpthread executables
https://sourceware.org/ml/libc-help/2014-03/msg00024.html
and the GDB patch below has been confirmed as OK for current glibcs.
Further work should be done for newer glibcs:
Improve TLS variables glibc compatibility
https://sourceware.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=16954
Still the patch below implements the feature in a fully functional way backward
compatible with current glibcs, it depends on the following glibc source line:

The dcache (code/stack cache) is supposed to be transparent, but it's
actually not in one case. dcache tries to read chunks (cache lines)
at a time off of the target. This may end up trying to read
unaccessible or unavailable memory. Currently the caller gets an xfer
error in this case. But if the specific bits of memory the caller
actually wanted are available and accessible, then the caller should
get the memory it wanted, not an error.

This does two things:
1. Adds a test.
Recently compare-sections got a new "-r" switch, but given no test
existed for compare-sections, the patch was allowed in with no
testsuite addition. This now adds a test for both compare-sections
and compare-sections -r.
2. Makes the compare-sections command work against all targets.
Currently, compare-sections only works with remote targets, and only
those that support the qCRC packet. The patch makes it so that if the
target doesn't support accelerating memory verification, then GDB
falls back to comparing memory itself. This is of course slower, but
it's better than nothing, IMO. While testing against extended-remote
GDBserver I noticed that we send the qCRC request to the target if
we're connected, but not yet running a program. That can't work of
course -- the patch fixes that. This all also goes in the direction
of bridging the local/remote parity gap.
I didn't decouple 1. from 2., because that would mean that the test
would need to handle the case of the target not supporting the
command.
Tested on x86_64 Fedora 17, native, remote GDBserver, and
extended-remote GDBserver. I also hack-disabled qCRC support to make
sure the fallback paths in remote.c work.

Actually, that patch just exposed a latent issue to "breakpoints
always-inserted off" mode, not really caused it. After that patch,
GDB no longer removes breakpoints at each internal event, thus making
some scenarios behave like breakpoint always-inserted on. The bug is
easy to trigger with always-inserted on.
The issue is that since the target-side breakpoint conditions support,
if the stub/server supports evaluating breakpoint conditions on the
target side, then GDB is sending duplicate Zx packets to the target
without removing them before, and GDBserver is not really expecting
that for Z packets other than Z0/z0. E.g., with "set breakpoint
always-inserted on" and "set debug remote 1":
(gdb) b main
Sending packet: $m410943,1#ff...Packet received: 48

And for Z1, similarly:

So GDB sent a bunch of Z1 packets, and then when finally removing the
breakpoint, only one z1 packet was sent. On the GDBserver side (with
monitor set debug-hw-points 1), in the Z1 case, we see:

DR2: addr=0x0, ref.count=0 DR3: addr=0x0, ref.count=0
That's one insert_watchpoint call for each Z1 packet, and then one
remove_watchpoint call for the z1 packet. Notice how ref.count
increased for each insert_watchpoint call, and then in the end, after
GDB told GDBserver to forget about the hardware breakpoint, GDBserver
ends with the the first debug register still with ref.count=4! IOW,
the hardware breakpoint is left armed on the target, while on the GDB
end it's gone. If the program happens to execute 0x410943 afterwards,
then the CPU traps, GDBserver reports the trap to GDB, and GDB not
having a breakpoint set at that address anymore, reports to the user a
spurious SIGTRAP.
This is exactly what is happening in the hbreak2.exp test, though in
that case, it's a shared library event that triggers a
breakpoint_re_set, when breakpoints are still inserted (because
nowadays GDB doesn't remove breakpoints while handling internal
events), and that recreates breakpoint locations, which likewise
forces breakpoint reinsertion and Zx packet resends...
That is a lot of bogus Zx duplication that should possibly be
addressed on the GDB side. GDB resends Zx packets because the way to
change the target-side condition, is to resend the breakpoint to the
server with the new condition. (That's an option in the packet: e.g.,
"Z1,410943,1;X3,220027" for "hbreak main if 0". The packets in the
examples above are shorter because the breakpoints don't have
conditions attached). GDB doesn't remove the breakpoint first before
reinserting it because that'd be bad for non-stop, as it'd open a
window where the inferior could miss the breakpoint. The conditions
actually haven't changed between the resends, but GDB isn't smart
enough to realize that.
(TBC, if the target doesn't support target-side conditions, then GDB
doesn't trigger these resends (init_bp_location calls
mark_breakpoint_location_modified, and that does nothing if condition
evaluation is on the host side. The resends are caused by the
'loc->condition_changed = condition_modified.' line.)
But, even if GDB was made smarter, GDBserver should really still
handle the resends anyway. So target-side conditions also aren't
really to blame. The documentation of the Z/z packets says:
"To avoid potential problems with duplicate packets, the operations
should be implemented in an idempotent way."
As such, we may want to fix GDB, but we should definitely fix
GDBserver. The fix is a prerequisite for target-side conditions on
hardware breakpoints anyway (and while at it, on watchpoints too).
GDBserver indeed already treats duplicate Z0 packets in an idempotent
way. mem-break.c has the concept of high-level and low-level
breakpoints, somewhat similar to GDB's split of breakpoints vs
breakpoint locations, and keeps track of multiple breakpoints
referencing the same address/location, for the case of an internal
GDBserver breakpoint or a tracepoint being set at the same address as
a GDB breakpoint. But, it only allows GDB to ever contribute one
reference to a software breakpoint location. IOW, if gdbserver sees a
Z0 packet for the same address where it already had a GDB breakpoint
set, then GDBserver won't create another high-level GDB breakpoint.
However, mem-break.c only tracks GDB Z0 breakpoints. The same logic
should apply to all kinds of Zx packets. Currently, gdbserver passes
down each duplicate Zx (other than Z0) request directly to the
target->insert_point routine. The x86 watchpoint support itself
refcounts watchpoint / hw breakpoint requests, to handle overlapping
watchpoints, and save debug registers. But that code doesn't (and
really shouldn't) handle the duplicate requests, assuming that for
each insert there will be a corresponding remove.
So the fix is to generalize mem-break.c to track all kinds of Zx
breakpoints, and filter out duplicates. As mentioned, this ends up
adding support for target-side conditions on hardware breakpoints and
watchpoints too (though GDB itself doesn't support the latter yet).
Probably the least obvious change in the patch is that it kind of
turns the breakpoint insert/remove APIs inside out. Before, the
target methods were only called for GDB breakpoints. The internal
breakpoint set/delete methods inserted memory breakpoints directly
bypassing the insert/remove target methods. That's not good when the
target should use a debug API to set software breakpoints, instead of
relying on GDBserver patching memory with breakpoint instructions, as
is the case of NTO.
Now removal/insertion of all kinds of breakpoints/watchpoints, either
internal, or from GDB, always go through the target methods. The
insert_point/remove_point methods no longer get passed a Z packet
type, but an internal/raw breakpoint type. They're also passed a
pointer to the raw breakpoint itself (note that's still opaque outside
mem-break.c), so that insert_memory_breakpoint /
remove_memory_breakpoint have access to the breakpoint's shadow
buffer. I first tried passing down a new structure based on GDB's
"struct bp_target_info" (actually with that name exactly), but then
decided against it as unnecessary complication.
As software/memory breakpoints work by poking at memory, when setting
a GDB Z0 breakpoint (but not internal breakpoints, as those can assume
the conditions are already right), we need to tell the target to
prepare to access memory (which on Linux means stop threads). If that
operation fails, we need to return error to GDB. Seeing an error, if
this is the first breakpoint of that type that GDB tries to insert,
GDB would then assume the breakpoint type is supported, but it may
actually not be. So we need to check whether the type is supported at
all before preparing to access memory. And to solve that, the patch
adds a new target->supports_z_point_type method that is called before
actually trying to insert the breakpoint.
Other than that, hopefully the change is more or less obvious.
New test added that exercises the hbreak2.exp regression in a more
direct way, without relying on a breakpoint re-set happening before
main is reached.

Hi,
This patch is to add a new board setting gdb_reverse_timeout, which is
used to set timeout for all gdb.reverse test cases, which are usually
very slow and cause some TIMEOUT failures, for example, on some arm
boards. We have some alternatives to this approach, but I am not
satisfied with them:
- Increase the timeout value. This is the global change, and it may
cause some delay where actual failures happen.
- Set timeout by gdb_reverse_timeout in every gdb.reverse/*.exp.
Then, we have to touch every file under gdb.reverse.
In this patch, we choose a central place to set timeout for all tests
in gdb.reverse, which is convenient.
gdb/testsuite:
2014-05-20 Yao Qi <yao@codesourcery.com>
* lib/gdb.exp (gdb_init): Set timeout if test file is under
gdb.reverse directory and gdb_reverse_timeout exists in board
setting.
* README: Document gdb_reverse_timeout.
The argument ARGS of gdb_init is passed from dejagnu is a string, the
test file name. In dejagnu/runtest.exp:
proc runtest { test_file_name } {
....
....
if [info exists tool] {
if { [info procs "${tool}_init"] != "" } {
${tool}_init $test_file_name;
}
}
....
}
but inn default_gdb_init (callee of gdb_init), we have
set gdb_test_file_name [file rootname [file tail [lindex $args 0]]]
In tcl, all actual arguments are combined to a list and assigned to
args. This code here isn't wrong, but unnecessary, because its caller
(proc runtest) only passes one string to it, and IMO, we don't need
such tricky tcl "args".
I doubt that "[lindex $args 0]" is to be backward compatible with old
dejagnu, but dejagnu-1.4 release started to pass $test_file_name to
${too}_init, as I showed above. dejagnu-1.4 was released in 2001, and
it should be old enough. I also tried to check whether gdb testusite
works with dejagnu-1.3 or not, but failed to build dejagnu-1.3 on my
machine. Supposing GDB testsuite requires at least dejagnu-1.4, this
change should be safe.
This patch is update default_gdb_init to treat ARGS as a string instead
of a list. Then, 'args' sounds like a list, and this patch also renames
it by 'test_file_name', to align with dejagnu.

Some gdb.dwarf2/*.exp tests copy file1.txt to host via gdb_remote_download
but dw2-filename.exp and dw2-anonymous-func.exp don't do that. Looks like
an oversight in this patch
https://sourceware.org/ml/gdb-patches/2013-08/msg00365.html

This patch fixes mi-file.exp fails on remote host. First, we can't

so this patch changes it to match ${srcfile} only on remote host.

due to "/" in it. Remove "/" from the pattern.

file1.txt is copied to host and then removed at the end. However, in
local-remote-host-notty.exp, ${board}_download doesn't copy the file but
return the absolute path of the src file. 'remote_file host delete' at
the end will remove the file in source tree.
This patch is to overwrite ${board}_file, and specially make "delete"

Hi,
I recently see the fail in dwzbuildid.exp below on some targets,
(gdb) print the_int
No symbol "the_int" in current context.
(gdb) FAIL: gdb.dwarf2/dwzbuildid.exp: mismatch: print the_int
Looks the pattern expects to see "No symbol table is loaded", which
is emitted in c-exp.y,
variable: name_not_typename
....
if (msymbol.minsym != NULL)
write_exp_msymbol (pstate, msymbol);
else if (!have_full_symbols () && !have_partial_symbols ())
error (_("No symbol table is loaded. Use the \"file\" command."));
else
error (_("No symbol \"%s\" in current context."),
copy_name ($1.stoken));
it is expected to have no full symbols nor partial symbols, but something
brings full symbols or partial symbols in. I added "maint info symtabs"
and "maint info psymtabs" in dwzbuildid.exp, and it shows symbols are from
ld.so, which has debug information. Then, I reproduce the fail like this,
$ make check RUNTESTFLAGS="CFLAGS_FOR_TARGET='-Wl,-rpath=${glibc_build}:${glibc_build}/math -Wl,--dynamic-linker=${glibc_build}/elf/ld.so' dwzbuildid.exp"
${glibc_build} is the glibc build tree. Debug information is not striped,
so the test fail. However, if I strip debug information from libc.so, libm.so
and ld.so. The test passes.
This patch is to relax the pattern to match the both cases that glibc build
has and has not debug information.

In gdb.trace/unavailable.exp, an action is defined to collect
struct_b.struct_a.array[2] and struct_b.struct_a.array[100],
struct StructB
{
int d, ef;
StructA struct_a;
int s:1;
static StructA static_struct_a;
const char *string;
};
and the other files are not collected.
When GDB examine traceframe collected by the action, "struct_b" is
unavailable completely, which is wrong.
(gdb) p struct_b
$1 = <unavailable>
When GDB reads 'struct_b', it will request to read memory at struct_b's address
of length LEN. Since struct_b.d is not collected, no 'M' block
includes the first part of the desired range, so tfile_xfer_partial returns
TARGET_XFER_UNAVAILABLE and GDB thinks the whole requested range is unavailable.
In order to fix this problem, in the iteration to 'M' blocks, we record the
lowest address of blocks within the request range. If it has, the requested
range isn't unavailable completely. This applies to ctf too. With this patch
applied, the result looks good and fails in unavailable.exp is fixed.
(gdb) p struct_b
$1 = {d = <unavailable>, ef = <unavailable>, struct_a = {a = <unavailable>, b = <unavailable>, array = {<unavailable>,

This commit is actually an update to make the parser in
gdb/stap-probe.c be aware of all the possible prefixes that a probe
argument can have. According to the section "Argument Format" in:
<https://sourceware.org/systemtap/wiki/UserSpaceProbeImplementation>
The bitness of the arguments can be 8, 16, 32 or 64 bits, signed or
unsigned. Currently GDB recognizes only 32 and 64-bit arguments.
This commit extends this. It also provides a testcase, only for
x86_64 systems.

This commit fixes PR breakpoints/16889, which is about a bug that
triggers when GDB tries to parse probes whose arguments do not contain
the initial (and optional) "N@" part. For reference sake, the de
facto format is described here:
<https://sourceware.org/systemtap/wiki/UserSpaceProbeImplementation>
Anyway, this PR actually uncovered two bugs (related) that were
happening while parsing the arguments. The first one was that the
parser *was* catching *some* arguments that were missing the "N@"
part, but it wasn't correctly setting the argument's type. This was
causing a NULL pointer being dereferenced, ouch...
The second bug uncovered was that the parser was not catching all of
the cases for a probe which did not provide the "N@" part. The fix
for that was to simplify the check that the code was making to
identify non-prefixed probes. The code is simpler and easier to read
now.
I am also providing a testcase for this bug, only for x86_64
architectures.

In a test I was writting, I needed a procedure that would connect to
the target, and do "load", or equivalent.
Years ago, boards would override gdb_load to implement that. Then
gdb_reload was added, and gdb_load was relaxed to allow boards avoid
the spawing and connecting to the target. This sped up gdbserver
testing. See
https://www.sourceware.org/ml/gdb-patches/2007-02/msg00318.html.
To actually spawn the target and load the executable on the target
side, gdb_reload was born:
# gdb_reload -- load a file into the target. Called before "running",
# either the first time or after already starting the program once,
# for remote targets. Most files that override gdb_load should now
# override this instead.
proc gdb_reload { } {
# For the benefit of existing configurations, default to gdb_load.
# Specifying no file defaults to the executable currently being
# debugged.
return [gdb_load ""]
}
Note the comment about specifying no file. Indeed looking at
config/sid.exp, or config/monitor.exp, we see examples of that.
However, the default gdb_load itself doesn't handle the case of no
file specified. When passed no file, it just calls gdb_file_cmd with
no file either, which ends up invocing the "file" command with no
argument, which means unloading the file and its symbols... That
means calling gdb_reload when testing against native targets is
broken. We don't see that today because the only call to gdb_reload
that exists today is guarded by target_info exists
gdb,do_reload_on_run.
The native-extended-gdbserver.exp board is likewise broken here. When
[gdb_load ""] is called, the board sets the remote exec-file to "" ...

extended-remote gdbserver.

In Dwarf::assemble in dwz.exp, 10 is hard-coded in it,
subprogram {
{name main}
{low_pc main addr}

}
however, the length of main function varies on architectures. The
hard-coded 10 here causes dwz.exp fails on some targets, such as
nios2.
This patch is to add some code to compute the length of function main,
which is similar to what we are doing in entry-values.exp.

On Linux, we need to explicitly ptrace attach to all lwps of a
process. Because GDB might not be connected yet when an attach is
requested, and thus it may not be possible to activate thread_db, as
that requires access to symbols (IOW, gdbserver --attach), a while ago
we make linux_attach loop over the lwps as listed by /proc/PID/task to
find the lwps to attach to.
linux_attach_lwp_1 has:
...
if (initial)
/* If lwp is the tgid, we handle adding existing threads later.
Otherwise we just add lwp without bothering about any other
threads. */
ptid = ptid_build (lwpid, lwpid, 0);
else
{
/* Note that extracting the pid from the current inferior is
safe, since we're always called in the context of the same
process as this new thread. */
int pid = pid_of (current_inferior);
ptid = ptid_build (pid, lwpid, 0);
}
That "safe" comment referred to linux_attach_lwp being called by
thread-db.c. But this was clearly missed when a new call to
linux_attach_lwp_1 was added to linux_attach. As a result,
current_inferior will be set to some random process, and non-initial
lwps of the second inferior get assigned the pid of the wrong
inferior. E.g., in the case of attaching to two inferiors, for the
second inferior (and so on), non-initial lwps of the second inferior
get assigned the pid of the first inferior. This doesn't trigger on
the first inferior, when current_inferior is NULL, add_thread switches
the current inferior to the newly added thread.
Rather than making linux_attach switch current_inferior temporarily
(thus avoiding further reliance on global state), or making
linux_attach_lwp_1 get the tgid from /proc, which add extra syscalls,
and will be wrong in case of the user having originally attached
directly to a non-tgid lwp, and then that lwp spawning new clones (the
ptid.pid field of further new clones should be the same as the
original lwp's pid, which is not the tgid), we note that callers of
linux_attach_lwp/linux_attach_lwp_1 always have the right pid handy
already, so they can pass it down along with the lwpid.
The only other reason for the "initial" parameter is to error out
instead of warn in case of attach failure, when we're first attaching
to a process. There are only three callers of
linux_attach_lwp/linux_attach_lwp_1, and each wants to print a
different warn/error string, so we can just move the error/warn out of
linux_attach_lwp_1 to the callers, thus getting rid of the "initial"
parameter.
There really nothing gdbserver-specific about attaching to two
threaded processes, so this adds a new test under gdb.multi/. The
test passes cleanly against the native GNU/Linux target, but
fails/triggers the bug against GDBserver (before the patch), with the
native-extended-remote board (as plain remote doesn't support
multi-process).
Tested on x86_64 Fedora 17, with the native-extended-gdbserver board.

For several RSP packets, there's a corresponding "set remote
foo-packet on/off/auto" command that one can use do bypass
auto-detection of support for the packet or feature. However, I
noticed that setting several of these commands to 'on' or 'off'
doesn't actually have any effect. These are, at least:
set remote breakpoint-commands-packet
set remote conditional-breakpoints-packet
set remote fast-tracepoints-packet
set remote static-tracepoints-packet
set remote install-in-trace-packet
These are commands that control a remote protocol feature that doesn't
have a corresponding regular packet, and because of that we cache the
knowledge of the remote side support as returned by the qSupported
packet in the remote_state object.
E.g., in the case of the 'set remote breakpoint-commands-packet'
command, whether the feature is supported is recorded in the
'breakpoint_commands' field of the remote_state object.
Whether to bypass packet support auto-detection or not is controlled
by the 'detect' field of the corresponding packet's packet_config
structure. That field is the variable associated directly with the
"set remote foo-packet" command. Actual remote stub support for the
packet (or feature) is recorded in the 'support' field of the same
structure.
However, when the user toggles the command, the 'support' field is
also correspondingly updated to PACKET_ENABLE/DISABLE/SUPPORT_UNKNOWN,
discarding the knowledge of whether the target actually supports the
feature. If one toggles back to 'auto', it's no big issue for real
packets, as they'll just end up re-probed the next time they might be
necessary. But features whose support is only reported through
qSupported don't get their corresponding (manually added/maintained)
fields in remote_state objected updated. As we lost the actual status
of the target support for the feature, GDB would need to probe the
qSupported features again, which GDB doesn't do.
But we can avoid that extra traffic, and clean things up, IMO.
Instead of going in that direction, this patch completely decouples
struct packet_config's 'detect' and 'support' fields. E.g., when the
user does "set remote foo-packet off", instead of setting the packet
config's 'support' field to PACKET_DISABLE, the 'support' field is not
touched at all anymore. That is, we end up respecting this simple
table:
| packet_config->detect | packet_config->support | should use packet/feature? |
|-----------------------+------------------------+----------------------------|
| auto | PACKET_ENABLE | PACKET_ENABLE |
| auto | PACKET_DISABLE | PACKET_DISABLE |
| auto | PACKET_UNKNOWN | PACKET_UNKNOWN |
| yes | don't care | PACKET_ENABLE |
| no | don't care | PACKET_DISABLE |
This is implemented by the new packet_support function. With that, we
need to update this pattern throughout:
if (remote_protocol_packets[PACKET_foo].support == PACKET_DISABLE)
to do this instead:
if (packet_support (PACKET_qAttached) == PACKET_DISABLE)
where as mentioned, the packet_support function takes struct
packet_config's 'detect' field into account, like in the table above.
As when the packet is force-disabled or force-enabled, the 'support'
field is just ignored, if the command is set back to auto, we'll
resume respecting whatever the target said it supports. IOW, the end
result is that the 'support' field always represents whether the
target actually supports the packet or not.
After all that, the manually maintained breakpoint_commands and
equivalent fields of struct remote_state can then be eliminated, with
references replaced by checking the result of calling the
packet_support function on the corresponding packet or feature. This
required adding new PACKET_foo enum values for several features that
didn't have it yet. (The patch does not add corresponding "set remote
foo-packet" style commands though, focusing only on bug fixing and
laying the groundwork).
Tested on x86_64 Fedora 17, native GDBserver. The new tests all fail
without this patch.

This patch adds support for the Intel(R) Advanced Vector
Extensions 512 (Intel(R) AVX-512) registers. Native and remote
debugging are covered by this patch.
Intel(R) AVX-512 is an extension to AVX to support 512-bit wide
SIMD registers in 64-bit mode (XMM0-XMM31, YMM0-YMM31, ZMM0-ZMM31).
The number of available registers in 32-bit mode is still 8
(XMM0-7, YMM0-7, ZMM0-7). The lower 256-bits of the ZMM registers
are aliased to the respective 256-bit YMM registers. The lower
128-bits are aliased to the respective 128-bit XMM registers.
There are also 8 new, dedicated mask registers (K0-K7) in both 32-bit
mode and 64-bit mode.

Change-Id: Ifc4c08c76b85dbec18d02efdbe6182e851584438
Signed-off-by: Michael Sturm <michael.sturm@intel.com>
breakpoint table handling. This is a patch in five parts (all committed
here in one commit).
----- 1/5: parse_args
parse_args is a very useful utility function which allows you to do
getopt-y kinds of things in Tcl.
Example:
proc myproc {foo args} {
parse_args {{bar} {baz "abc"} {qux}}
# ...
}
myproc ABC -bar -baz DEF peanut butter
will define the following variables in myproc:
foo (=ABC), bar (=1), baz (=DEF), and qux (=0)
args will be the list {peanut butter}
----- 2/5: mi_build_kv_pairs
build_kv_pairs simply does what it says: given the input list
and an option join string, it combines list elements into kv-pairs
for MI handling. It knows how to handle tuples and other special
MI types.
Example:
mi_build_kv_pairs {a b c d e f g \[.*\]}
returns a=\"b\",c=\"d\",e=\"f\",g=\[.*\]
----- 3/5: mi_make_breakpoint
This function builds breakpoint regexps, such as
"bkpt={number=\".*\", [snip]}".
Note that ONLY the options given to mi_make_breakpoint/mi_create_breakpoint
will actually be tested. So if -number is omitted, the regexp will allow
anything [number=\".*\"]
Examples:
mi_make_breakpoint -number 3
mi_create_breakpoint "myfile.c:21" -file myfile.c -line 21
----- 4/5: mi_make_breakpoint_table
This function builds MI breakpoint table regexps.
Example:
set bps {}
lappend bps [mi_make_breakpoint -number 1 -func "main" \
-file ".*/myfile.c" -line 42
lappend bps [mi_make_breakpoint -number 2 -func "marker" \
-file ".*myfile.c" -line 21
gdb_test "-break-info" "\\^done,[mi_make_breakpoint_table $bps]" \
"breakpoint list"
----- 5/5: Update all callers

doing "file". I caught this while writing a test that does "file
PROGRAM", while PROGRAM was already loaded, which internally does
"file" first, because I wanted to force a breakpoint_re_set, but the
test is more explicit in case GDB ever optimizes out that re-set.
The problem is that unloading the file with "file" ends up in
disable_breakpoints_in_freed_objfile, which marks all breakpoint
locations of the objfile as both shlib_disabled, _and_ clears the
inserted flag, without actually removing the breakpoints from the
inferior. Now, usually, in all-stop, breakpoints will already be
removed from the inferior before the user can issue the "file"
command, but, with non-stop, or breakpoints always-inserted on mode,
breakpoints stay inserted even while the user has the prompt. In the
latter case, then, if we let the program continue, and it executes the
address where we had previously set the breakpoint, it'll actually
execute the breakpoint instruction that we left behind...
Now, one issue is that the intent of
disable_breakpoints_in_freed_objfile is really to handle the unloading
of OBJF_USERLOADED objfiles. These are objfiles that were added with
add-symbol-file and that are removed with remove-symbol-file.
"add-symbol-file"'s docs in the manual clearly say these commands are
used to let GDB know about dynamically loaded code:
You would use this command when @var{filename} has been dynamically
loaded (by some other means) into the program that is running.
Similarly, the online help says:
(gdb) help add-symbol-file
Load symbols from FILE, assuming FILE has been dynamically loaded.
So it makes sense to, like when shared libraries are unloaded through
the generic solib machinery, mark the breakpoint locations as
shlib_disabled. But, the "file" command is not about dynamically
loaded code, it's about the main program. So the patch makes
disable_breakpoints_in_freed_objfile skip all objfiles but
OBJF_USERLOADED ones, thus skipping the main objfile.
Then, the reason that disable_breakpoints_in_freed_objfile was
clearing the inserted flag isn't clear, but likely to avoid breakpoint
removal errors, assuming remove-symbol-file was called after the
dynamic object was already unmapped from the inferior. In that case,
it'd okay to simply clear the inserted flag, but not so if the user
for example does remove-symbol-file to remove the library because he
made a mistake in the library's address, and wants to re-do
add-symbol-file with the correct address.
To address all that, I propose an alternative implementation, that
handles both cases. The patch includes changes to sym-file.exp to
cover them.
This implementation leaves the inserted flag alone, and handles
breakpoint insertion/removal failure gracefully when the locations are
in OBJF_USERLOADED objfiles, just like we handle insertion/removal
failure gracefully for locations in shared libraries.
To try to make sure we aren't patching back stale shadow memory
contents into the inferior, in case the program mapped a different
library at the same address where we had the breakpoint, without the
user having had a chance of remove-symbol-file'ing before, this adds a
new memory_validate_breakpoint function that checks if the breakpoint
instruction is still in memory. ppc_linux_memory_remove_breakpoint
does this unconditionally for all memory breakpoints, and questions
whether memory_remove_breakpoint should be changed to do this for all
breakpoints. Possibly yes, though I'm not certain, hence this
baby-steps patch.
Tested on x86_64 Fedora 17, native and gdbserver.

As explained in
https://sourceware.org/ml/gdb-patches/2008-08/msg00361.html, after a
shared library was unloaded, we can no longer insert or remove
breakpoints into/from its (no longer present) code segment. That'll
fail with memory errors. However, that concern does not apply to
hardware breakpoints. By definition, hardware breakpoints are
implemented using a mechanism that is not dependent on being able to
modify the target's memory. Usually, by setting up CPU debug
registers. IOW, we should be able to set hw breakpoints in an
unmapped address. We don't seem to have a test that exercises that,
so this patch adds one.
I noticed the error supression because of a related issue -- the
target_insert_hw_breakpoint/target_remove_hw_breakpoint interfaces
don't really distinguish "not supported" from "error" return, and so
remote.c returns -1 in both cases. This results in hardware
breakpoints set in shared libraries silently ending up pending forever
even though the target doesn't actually support hw breakpoints.

(HW breakpoints set in the main executable, when the target doesn't
support HW breakpoints always resulted in the latter output.)
We probably should improve the insert/remove interface to return a
different error code for unsupported. But I chose to fix the error
supression first, as it's a deeper and wider issue.

FAIL: gdb.base/consecutive-step-over.exp: continue to breakpoint: break here (GDB internal error)
The assertion fails, because the code is not expecting that the event
thread itself might need another step over. IOW, not expecting that
TP in:
tp = find_thread_needs_step_over (stepping_thread != NULL,
stepping_thread);
could be the event thread.
A small fix for this would be to clear the event thread's
trap_expected earlier, before asserting. But looking deeper, although
currently_stepping_or_nexting_callback's intention is finding the
thread that is doing a step/next, it also returns the thread that is
doing a step-over dance, with trap_expected set. If there ever was a
reason for that (it was I who added
currently_stepping_or_nexting_callback , but I can't recall why I put
trap_expected there in the first place), the only remaining reason
nowadays is to aid in implementing switch_back_to_stepped_thread's
assertion that is now triggering, by piggybacking on the walk over all
threads, thus avoiding a separate walk. This is quite obscure, and I
think we can do even better, by merging the walks that look for the
stepping thread, and the walk that looks for some thread that might
need a step over.

In gdb.trace/tfile.exp, we execute binary to generate tracefile,
remote_exec target "$binfile"
however, this fails on bare metal target. This patch is to
handle binary execution failure by running binary in GDB.
The binary will do some io operation to generate tracefile, so
we need a check 'target_info exists gdb,nofileio'.
This patch is to check whether tracefile is generated. tfile.exp can
be skipped if generation is failed, while test_tfind_tfile in
mi-traceframe-changed.exp is skipped if generated failed. The rest of
the mi-traceframe-changed.exp can still be executed, because on some
bare metal targets, the remote stub supports tracepoint but doesn't
support fileio.

This PR is about an assertion failure in GDB that can be triggered by
setting "backtrace limit" to a value that causes GDB to stop unwinding
after an inline frame. In this case, an assertion in
inline_frame_this_id will trigger:
/* We need a valid frame ID, so we need to be based on a valid
frame. (...). */
gdb_assert (frame_id_p (*this_id));
Looking at the function:
static void
inline_frame_this_id (struct frame_info *this_frame,
void **this_cache,
struct frame_id *this_id)
{
struct symbol *func;
/* In order to have a stable frame ID for a given inline function,
we must get the stack / special addresses from the underlying
real frame's this_id method. So we must call get_prev_frame.
Because we are inlined into some function, there must be previous
frames, so this is safe - as long as we're careful not to
create any cycles. */
*this_id = get_frame_id (get_prev_frame (this_frame));
we see we're computing the frame id for the inline frame. If this is
an inline frame, which is a virtual frame constructed based on debug
info, on top of a real stack frame, we should _always_ be able to find
where the frame was inlined into, as that ultimately just means
peeling off the virtual frames on top of the real stack frame. If
there ultimately was no prev (real) stack frame, then we wouldn't have
been able to construct the inline frame either, by design. That's
what the assertion catches.
So we have an inline frame, we should _always_ be able to compute its
ID, even if that means bypassing the user backtrace limits to get at
the real stack frame's info. The problem is that inline_frame_id
calls get_prev_frame, and that takes user backtrace limits into
account. Code that wants to bypass the limits calls get_prev_frame_1
instead.
Note how get_prev_frame_1 already skips all checks for inline frames:
/* If we are unwinding from an inline frame, all of the below tests
were already performed when we unwound from the next non-inline
frame. We must skip them, since we can not get THIS_FRAME's ID
until we have unwound all the way down to the previous non-inline
frame. */
if (get_frame_type (this_frame) == INLINE_FRAME)
return get_prev_frame_if_no_cycle (this_frame);
And note how the related frame_unwind_caller_id function also uses
get_prev_frame_1:
struct frame_id
frame_unwind_caller_id (struct frame_info *next_frame)
{
struct frame_info *this_frame;
/* Use get_prev_frame_1, and not get_prev_frame. The latter will truncate
the frame chain, leading to this function unintentionally
returning a null_frame_id (e.g., when a caller requests the frame
ID of "main()"s caller. */
next_frame = skip_artificial_frames (next_frame);
this_frame = get_prev_frame_1 (next_frame);
if (this_frame)
return get_frame_id (skip_artificial_frames (this_frame));
else
return null_frame_id;
}
get_prev_frame_1 is currently static in frame.c. As a _1 suffix is
not a good name for an extern function, I've renamed it.
