The completion feature and other features on readline depend on the
readline library. However, readline library is not always used, for
example, running testsuite like
make check RUNTESTFLAGS="--host_board=local-remote-host"
the input stream is not a tty, and GDB doesn't use readline library
as a result.
This patch is to skip tests on completion and readline if
'show editing' is off, which means readline isn't used. Note that
some tests in gdb.base/completion.exp test command complete, which
isn't related to readline, so these tests aren't affected by readline
library. This patch also moves these tests up, run them
unconditionally, and run the rest if readline library is used.

https://sourceware.org/ml/gdb-patches/2014-02/msg00384.html
this patch moves traceframe_available_memory down to the target side.
After this patch, the gdb core code is cleaner, and code on handling
unavailable memory is moved to remote/tfile/ctf targets.
In details, this patch moves traceframe_available_memory code from
memory_xfer_partial_1 to remote target only, so remote target still
uses traceframe_info mechanism to check unavailable memory, and use
remote_ops to read them from read-only sections. We don't use
traceframe_info mechanism for tfile and ctf target, because it is
fast to iterate all traceframes from trace file, so the summary
information got from traceframe_info is not necessary.
This patch also moves two functions to remote.c from target.c,
because they are only used in remote.c. I'll clean them up in another
patch.

-- Initial message by Tom Tromey:
While testing on AIX, I happened to notice an internal error coming
from parse_probes. This happens because there are no probes defined
on this platform. This patch fixes the problem by changing an assert
into an ordinary error, and then changing the relevant caller to cope.
This fixes a few tests on AIX; also regtested on x86-64 Fedora 18.
-- Followup by Sergio Durigan Junior:
By reading the patch (and the original code), I found it a little bit
obscure, so I took the liberty to try to improve it. Here's the patch.
Could you please take a look and see if it works on AIX (and also if you
like the approach)?

With target async enabled, py-finish-breakpoint.exp triggers an
assertion failure.
The failure occurs because execute_command re-enters the event loop in
some circumstances, and in this case resets the sync_execution flag.
Then later GDB reaches this assertion in normal_stop:
gdb_assert (sync_execution || !target_can_async_p ());
In detail:
#1 - A synchronous execution command is run. sync_execution is set.
#2 - A python breakpoint is hit (TARGET_WAITKIND_STOPPED), and the
corresponding Python breakpoint's stop method is executed. When
and while python commands are executed, interpreter_async is
forced to 0.
#3 - The Python stop method happens to execute a not-execution-related
gdb command. In this case, "where 1".
#4 - Seeing that sync_execution is set, execute_command nests a new
event loop (although that wasn't necessary; this is the problem).
#5 - The linux-nat target's pipe in the event loop happens to be
marked. That's normal, due to this in linux_nat_wait:
/* If we requested any event, and something came out, assume there
may be more. If we requested a specific lwp or process, also
assume there may be more. */
The nested event loop thus immediately wakes up and calls
target_wait. No thread is actually executing in the inferior, so
the target returns TARGET_WAITKIND_NO_RESUMED.
#6 - normal_stop is reached. GDB prints "No unwaited-for children
left.", and resets the sync_execution flag (IOW, there are no
resumed threads left, so the synchronous command is considered
completed.) This is already bogus. We were handling a
breakpoint!
#7 - the nested event loop unwinds/ends. GDB is now back to handling
the python stop method (TARGET_WAITKIND_STOPPED), which decides
the breakpoint should stop. normal_stop is called for this
event. However, normal_stop actually works with the _last_
reported target status:
void
normal_stop (void)
{
struct target_waitstatus last;
ptid_t last_ptid;
struct cleanup *old_chain = make_cleanup (null_cleanup, NULL);
...
get_last_target_status (&last_ptid, &last);
...
if (last.kind == TARGET_WAITKIND_NO_RESUMED)
{
gdb_assert (sync_execution || !target_can_async_p ());
target_terminal_ours_for_output ();
printf_filtered (_("No unwaited-for children left.\n"));
}
And due to the nesting in execute command, the last event is now
TARGET_WAITKIND_NO_RESUMED, not the actual breakpoint event being
handled. This could be seen to be broken in itself, but we can
leave fixing that for another pass. The assertion is reached, and
fails.
execute_command has a comment explaining when it should synchronously
wait for events:
/* If the interpreter is in sync mode (we're running a user
command's list, running command hooks or similars), and we
just ran a synchronous command that started the target, wait
for that command to end. */
However, the code did not follow this comment -- it didn't check to
see if the command actually started the target, just whether the
target was executing a sync command at this point.
This patch fixes the problem by noting whether the target was
executing in sync_execution mode before running the command, and then
augmenting the condition to test this as well.

The problem is that GDB gave the prompt back to the user too early.
This happens when calling functions while handling an event that
doesn't cause a user visible stop. dprintf with "set dprintf-style
gdb" is one such case. This patch adds a test case that has a
breakpoint with a condition that calls a function that returns false,
so that regression testing isn't dependent on the implementation of
dprintf.
The problem happens because run_inferior_call causes GDB to forget
that it is running in sync_execution mode, so any event that runs an
inferior call causes fetch_inferior_event to display the prompt, even
if the event should not result in a user visible stop (that is, gdb
resumes the inferior and waits for the next event).
This patch fixes the issue by noticing when GDB was in sync_execution
mode in run_inferior_call, and taking care to restore this state
afterward.

This test fails with current mainline.
If the program stopped for a breakpoint in thread 1, and then the user
switches to thread 2, and resumes the program, GDB first switches back
to thread 1 to step it over the breakpoint, in order to make progress.
However, that logic only considers the last reported event, assuming
only one thread needs that stepping over dance.
That's actually not true when we play with scheduler-locking. The
patch adds an example to the testsuite of multiple threads needing a
step-over before the stepping thread can be resumed. With current
mainline, the program re-traps the same breakpoint it had already
trapped before.

But that "step" retriggers the same breakpoint instead of making
progress.
The patch teaches GDB to step over all breakpoints of all threads
before resuming the stepping thread.

Even with deferred_step_ptid out of the way, GDB can still lose
watchpoints.
If a watchpoint triggers and the PC points to an address where a
thread-specific breakpoint for another thread is set, the thread-hop
code triggers, and we lose the watchpoint:
if (ecs->event_thread->suspend.stop_signal == GDB_SIGNAL_TRAP)
{
int thread_hop_needed = 0;
struct address_space *aspace =
get_regcache_aspace (get_thread_regcache (ecs->ptid));
/* Check if a regular breakpoint has been hit before checking
for a potential single step breakpoint. Otherwise, GDB will
not see this breakpoint hit when stepping onto breakpoints. */
if (regular_breakpoint_inserted_here_p (aspace, stop_pc))
{
if (!breakpoint_thread_match (aspace, stop_pc, ecs->ptid))
thread_hop_needed = 1;
^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
}
And on software single-step targets, even without a thread-specific
breakpoint in the way, here in the thread-hop code:
else if (singlestep_breakpoints_inserted_p)
{
...
if (!ptid_equal (singlestep_ptid, ecs->ptid)
&& in_thread_list (singlestep_ptid))
{
/* If the PC of the thread we were trying to single-step
has changed, discard this event (which we were going
to ignore anyway), and pretend we saw that thread
trap. This prevents us continuously moving the
single-step breakpoint forward, one instruction at a
time. If the PC has changed, then the thread we were
trying to single-step has trapped or been signalled,
but the event has not been reported to GDB yet.
There might be some cases where this loses signal
information, if a signal has arrived at exactly the
same time that the PC changed, but this is the best
we can do with the information available. Perhaps we
should arrange to report all events for all threads
when they stop, or to re-poll the remote looking for
this particular thread (i.e. temporarily enable
schedlock). */
CORE_ADDR new_singlestep_pc
= regcache_read_pc (get_thread_regcache (singlestep_ptid));
if (new_singlestep_pc != singlestep_pc)
{
enum gdb_signal stop_signal;
if (debug_infrun)
fprintf_unfiltered (gdb_stdlog, "infrun: unexpected thread,"
" but expected thread advanced also\n");
/* The current context still belongs to
singlestep_ptid. Don't swap here, since that's
the context we want to use. Just fudge our
state and continue. */
stop_signal = ecs->event_thread->suspend.stop_signal;
ecs->event_thread->suspend.stop_signal = GDB_SIGNAL_0;
ecs->ptid = singlestep_ptid;
ecs->event_thread = find_thread_ptid (ecs->ptid);
ecs->event_thread->suspend.stop_signal = stop_signal;
stop_pc = new_singlestep_pc;
}
else
{
if (debug_infrun)
fprintf_unfiltered (gdb_stdlog,
"infrun: unexpected thread\n");
thread_hop_needed = 1;
stepping_past_singlestep_breakpoint = 1;
saved_singlestep_ptid = singlestep_ptid;
}
}
}
we either end up with thread_hop_needed, ignoring the watchpoint
SIGTRAP, or switch to the stepping thread, again ignoring that the
SIGTRAP could be for some other event.
The new test added by this patch exercises both paths.
So the fix is similar to the deferred_step_ptid fix -- defer the
thread hop to _after_ the SIGTRAP had a change of passing through the
regular bpstat handling. If the wrong thread hits a breakpoint, we'll
just end up with BPSTAT_WHAT_SINGLE, and if nothing causes a stop,
keep_going starts a step-over.
Most of the stepping_past_singlestep_breakpoint mechanism is really
not necessary -- setting the thread to step over a breakpoint with
thread->trap_expected is sufficient to keep all other threads locked.
It's best to still keep the flag in some form though, because when we
get to keep_going, the software single-step breakpoint we need to step
over is already gone -- an optimization done by a follow up patch will
check whether a step-over is still be necessary by looking to see
whether the breakpoint is still there, and would find the thread no
longer needs a step-over, while we still want it.
Special care is still needed to handle the case of PC of the thread we
were trying to single-step having changed, like in the old code. We
can't just keep_going and re-step it, as in that case we can over-step
the thread (if it was already done with the step, but hasn't reported
it yet, we'd ask it to step even further). That's now handled in
switch_back_to_stepped_thread. As bonus, we're now using a technique
that doesn't lose signals, unlike the old code -- we now insert a
breakpoint at PC, and resume, which either reports the breakpoint
immediately, or any pending signal.
Tested on x86_64 Fedora 17, against pristine mainline, and against a
branch that implements software single-step on x86.

Say the program is stopped at a breakpoint, and the user sets a
watchpoint. When the program is next resumed, GDB will first step
over the breakpoint, as explained in the manual:
@value {GDBN} normally ignores breakpoints when it resumes
execution, until at least one instruction has been executed. If it
it did not do this, you would be unable to proceed past a breakpoint
without first disabling the breakpoint. This rule applies whether
or not the breakpoint already existed when your program stopped.
However, GDB currently also removes watchpoints, catchpoints, etc.,
and that means that the first instruction off the breakpoint does not
trigger the watchpoint, catchpoint, etc.
testsuite/gdb.base/watchpoint.exp has a kfail for this.
The PR proposes installing watchpoints only when stepping over a
breakpoint, but that misses catchpoints, etc.
A better fix would instead work from the opposite direction -- remove
only real breakpoints, leaving all other kinds of breakpoints
inserted.
But, going further, it's really a waste to constantly remove/insert
all breakpoints when stepping over a single breakpoint (generating a
pair of RSP z/Z packets for each breakpoint), so the fix goes a step
further and makes GDB remove _only_ the breakpoint being stepped over,
leaving all others installed. This then has the added benefit of
reducing breakpoint-related RSP traffic substancialy when there are
many breakpoints set.

Consider the case of the user doing "step" in thread 2, while thread 1
had previously stopped for a breakpoint. In order to make progress,
GDB makes thread 1 step over its breakpoint first (with all other
threads stopped), and once that is over, thread 2 then starts stepping
(with thread 1 and all others running free, by default). If GDB
didn't do that, thread 1 would just trip on the same breakpoint
immediately again. This is what the prepare_to_proceed /
deferred_step_ptid code is all about.
However, deferred_step_ptid code resumes the target with:
resume (1, GDB_SIGNAL_0);
prepare_to_wait (ecs);
return;
Recall we were just stepping over a breakpoint when we get here. That
means that _nothing_ had installed breakpoints yet! If there's
another breakpoint just after the breakpoint that was just stepped,
we'll miss it. The fix for that would be to use keep_going instead.
However, there are more problems. What if the instruction that was
just single-stepped triggers a watchpoint? Currently, GDB just
happily resumes the thread, losing that too...
Missed watchpoints will need yet further fixes, but we should keep
those in mind.
So the fix must be to let the trap fall through the regular bpstat
handling, and only if no breakpoint, watchpoint, etc. claims the trap,
shall we switch back to the stepped thread.
Now, nowadays, we have code at the tail end of trap handling that does
exactly that -- switch back to the stepped thread
(switch_back_to_the_stepped_thread).
So the deferred_step_ptid code is just standing in the way, and can
simply be eliminated, fixing bugs in the process. Sweet.
The comment about spurious "Switching to ..." made me pause, but is
actually stale nowadays. That isn't needed anymore.
previous_inferior_ptid used to be re-set at each (internal) event, but
now it's only touched in proceed and normal stop.
The two tests added by this patch fail without the fix.

on x86 branch).

This change corrects GPR frame offset calculation for the e500v2
processor. On this target, featuring the SPE APU, GPRs are 64-bit and
are held in stack frames whole with the use of `evstdd' and `evldd'
instructions. Their integer 32-bit part occupies the low-order word and
therefore its offset varies between the two endiannesses possible.

next vs -exec-next, etc.), we see:

As seen above, with MI commands, the *stopped event _doesn't_ have
frame info. This is because normal_stop, as commanded by the result
of bpstat_print, skips printing frame info in this case (it's an
"event", not a "breakpoint"), and when the interpreter is MI,
mi_on_normal_stop skips calling print_stack_frame, as the normal_stop
call was already done with the MI uiout. This explains why the async
output is different even with a CLI command. Its because in async
mode, the mi_on_normal_stop path is always taken; it is always reached
with the MI uiout, because the stop is handled from the event loop,
instead of from within `proceed -> wait_for_inferior -> normal_stop'
with the interpreter overridden, as in sync mode.
This patch fixes the issue by making all cases output the same
*stopped event, by factoring out the print code from normal_stop, and
using it from mi_on_normal_stop as well. I chose the *stopped output
without a frame, mainly because that is what you already get if you
use MI execution commands, the commands frontends are supposed to use
(except when implementing a console). This patch makes it simpler to
tweak the MI output differently if desired, as we only have to change
the centralized print_stop_event (taking into account whether the
uiout is MI-like), and all different modes will change accordingly.
Tested on x86_64 Fedora 17, no regressions. The mi-solib.exp test no
longer fails in async mode with this patch, so the patch removes the
kfail.

Consider the following declarations:
type Packed_Array is array (Natural range <>) of Boolean;
pragma Pack (Packed_Array);
function Make (H, L : Natural) return Packed_Array is
begin
return (H .. L => False);
end Make;
A1 : Packed_Array := Make (1, 2);
A2 : Packed_Array renames A1;
One possible DWARF translation for A2 is:
<3><1e4>: Abbrev Number: 21 (DW_TAG_variable)
<1e5> DW_AT_name : a2
<1ea> DW_AT_type : <0x1d9>
<3><1d9>: Abbrev Number: 22 (DW_TAG_const_type)
<1da> DW_AT_type : <0x1de>
<3><1de>: Abbrev Number: 23 (DW_TAG_reference_type)
<1e0> DW_AT_type : <0x1a3>
<3><1a3>: Abbrev Number: 17 (DW_TAG_array_type)
<1a4> DW_AT_name : foo__Ta1S___XP1
<1a8> DW_AT_GNAT_descriptive_type: <0x16b>
<3><16b>: Abbrev Number: 6 (DW_TAG_typedef)
<16c> DW_AT_name : foo__Ta1S
<172> DW_AT_type : <0x176>
<3><176>: Abbrev Number: 17 (DW_TAG_array_type)
<177> DW_AT_name : foo__Ta1S
<17b> DW_AT_GNAT_descriptive_type: <0x223>
Here, foo__Ta1S___XP1 is the type used for the code generation while
foo__Ta1S is the source-level type. Both form a valid GNAT encoding for
a packed array type.
Trying to print A2 (1) can make GDB crash. This is because A2 is defined
as a reference to a GNAT encoding for a packed array. When decoding
constrained packed arrays, the ada_coerce_ref subprogram follows
references and returns a fixed type from the target type, peeling
the GNAT encoding for packed arrays. The remaining code assumes that
the resulting type is still such an encoding while we only have
a standard GDB array type, hence the crash:
arr = ada_coerce_ref (arr);
[...]
type = decode_constrained_packed_array_type (value_type (arr));
decode_constrained_packed_array_type assumes that its argument is
such an encoding. From its front comment:
/* The array type encoded by TYPE, where
ada_is_constrained_packed_array_type (TYPE). */
This patch simply replaces the call to ada_coerce_ref with a call
to coerce_ref in order to avoid prematurely transforming
the packed array type as a side-effect. This way, the remaining code
will always work with a GNAT encoding.

* ada-lang.c (decode_constrained_packed_array): Perform a
minimal coercion for reference with coerce_ref instead of

Looking at target_terminal_inferior etc. in async mode, I realized
that the naming of the terminal_inferior, terminal_ours,
etc. functions doesn't really give a clue that they're meant for the
native target only. This patch renames them. There's already
child_terminal_info using the child_ prefix, and, they're most
prominently installed by inf-child.c, so I went with the child_
prefix. I dropped "inferior" from a couple to make the name match the
corresponding target method.
Tested on x86_64 Fedora 17, and cross built for mingw. I didn't test
gnu-nat.c, but I think the change is as obvious as it gets. I grepped
the tree looking for other potential spots that would need adjustment
but this is all I found. If something breaks, it should be trivial to
fix.

I find the mention of "Unix" unnecessary (and really slightly a lie)
on GNU/Linux in a couple of places:
(gdb) maint print target-stack
The current target stack is:
- multi-thread (multi-threaded child process.)
- child (Unix child process)
- exec (Local exec file)
- None (None)
(gdb) help target child
Unix child process (started by the "run" command).
(gdb) target child
Use the "run" command to start a Unix child process.
It's also odd that e.g., the Windows port says "Unix" in reaction to
"target child" (it was already that way before Windows used
inf-child.c):
(gdb) target child
Use the "run" command to start a Unix child process.
(gdb)
So drop "Unix", going in the direction of saying mostly the same on
all native targets:
(gdb) maint print target-stack
The current target stack is:
- multi-thread (multi-threaded child process.)
- - child (Unix child process)
+ - child (Child process)
- exec (Local exec file)
- None (None)
(gdb) help target child
- Unix child process (started by the "run" command).

All execution commands currently have this pattern:
/* If we must run in the background, but the target can't do it,
error out. */
if (async_exec && !target_can_async_p ())
error (_("Asynchronous execution not supported on this target."));
/* If we are not asked to run in the bg, then prepare to run in the
foreground, synchronously. */
if (!async_exec && target_can_async_p ())
{
/* Simulate synchronous execution. */
async_disable_stdin ();
}
This patch factors that into a shared function.
attach_command installs a cleanup to re-enable stdin, but that's not
necessary, as per the comment in prepare_execution_command. In any
case, if someday it turns out necessary, we have a single place to
install it now.

This patch updates arm native support for hwbreak-/watchpoints to enable
support for hwbreak-/watchpoints across fork/vfork. This involves changes to
hwbreak-/watchpoint insertion mechanism to the modern way, by marking debug
registers as needing update, but only really updating them on resume, which is
necessary for supporting watchpoints in non-stop mode. This also updates a
previously maintained per thread hwbreak-/watchpoint cache to a per process
cache which allows target specific code to come in sync with gdb-linux calls to
threads create/destroy and process fork/exit hooks.

A patch in the target cleanup series caused a regression when using
record with target-async. Version 4 of the patch is here:
https://sourceware.org/ml/gdb-patches/2014-03/msg00159.html
The immediate problem is that record supplies to_can_async_p and
to_is_async_p methods, but does not supply a to_async method. So,
when target-async is set, record claims to support async -- but if the
underlying target does not support async, then the to_async method
call will end up in that method's default implementation, namely
tcomplain.
This worked previously because the record target used to provide a
to_async method; one that (erroneously, only at push time) checked the
other members of the target stack, and then simply dropped to_async
calls in the "does not implement async" case.
My first thought was to simply drop tcomplain as the default for
to_async. This works, but Pedro pointed out that the only reason
record has to supply to_can_async_p and to_is_async_p is that these
default to using the find_default_run_target machinery -- and these
defaults are only needed by "run" and "attach".
So, a nicer solution presents itself: change run and attach to
explicitly call into the default run target when needed; and change
to_is_async_p and to_can_async_p to default to "return 0". This makes
the target stack simpler to use and lets us remove the method
implementations from record. This is also in harmony with other plans
for the target stack; namely trying to reduce the impact of
find_default_run_target. This approach makes it clear that
find_default_is_async_p is not needed -- it is asking whether a target
that may not even be pushed is actually async, which seems like a
nonsensical question.
While an improvement, this approach proved to introduce the same bug
when using the core target. Looking a bit deeper, the issue is that
code in "attach" and "run" may need to use either the current target
stack or the default run target -- but different calls into the target
API in those functions could wind up querying different targets.
This new patch makes the target to use more explicit in "run" and
"attach". Then these commands explicitly make the needed calls
against that target. This ensures that a single target is used for
all relevant operations. This lets us remove a couple find_default_*
functions from various targets, including the dummy target. I think
this is a decent understandability improvement.
One issue I see with this patch is that the new calls in "run" and
"attach" are not very much like the rest of the target API. I think
fundamentally this is due to bad factoring in the target API, which
may need to be fixed for multi-target. Tackling that seemed ambitious
for a regression fix.
While working on this I noticed that there don't seem to be any test
cases that involve both target-async and record, so this patch changes
break-precsave.exp to add some. It also changes corefile.exp to add
some target-async tests; these pass with current trunk and with this
patch applied, but fail with the v1 patch.
This patch differs from v4 in that it moves initialization of
to_can_async_p and to_supports_non_stop into inf-child, adds some
assertions to complete_target_initialization, and adds some comments
to target.h.
Built and regtested on x86-64 Fedora 20.

On PPC64, 'func' and 'main' are function descriptors and don't point
to the actual code. Thus the usage of these symbols in the DWARF
assembler source was broken. The patch introduces new labels
func_start and func_end for this purpose.
A "side effect" of the migration to Dwarf::assemble is that the DWARF
address size is now automatically adjusted to the target architecture.
The original assembler source hard-coded the DWARF address size to 4,
even on 64-bit architectures. This address size mismatch caused a
test case failure on s390x due to a wrong result from DW_OP_deref.
Now that prepare_for_testing etc. can cope with absolute path names,
this can be exploited for test cases with generated source files.
This is just to simplify the code and shouldn't cause any functional
change.
Test cases that produce source files in the build directory have not
been able to use prepare_for_testing and friends. This was because
build_executable_from_specs unconditionally prepended the source
directory path name to its arguments.

When evaluating an expression, if it is of a tagged type, GDB reads
the tag in memory and deduces the full view. At parsing time, however,
this operation is done only in the case of OP_VAR_VALUE. ptype does
not go through a full evaluation of expressions so it may return some
odd results:
(gdb) print c.menu_name
$1 = 0x0
(gdb) ptype $
type = system.strings.string_access
(gdb) ptype c.menu_name
type = <void>
This change removes this peculiarity by extending the tag resolution
to UNOP_IND and STRUCTOP_STRUCT. As in the case of OP_VAR_VALUE, this
implies switching from EVAL_AVOID_SIDE_EFFECTS to EVAL_NORMAL when a
tagged type is dereferenced.

Those breakpoint instructions are no longer installed in target memory
they're stale in the code cache. Easily confirmed by just disabling

I stumbled upon this when writing a patch to infrun.c, that made
handle_inferior_event & co fill in the cache before breakpoints were
removed from the target. Recall that wait_for_inferior flushes the
dcache for every event. So in that case, always-inserted mode was not
necessary to trigger this. It's just a convenient way to expose the
issue.
The dcache works at the raw memory level. We need to update it
whenever memory is written, no matter what kind of target memory
object was originally passed down by the caller. The issue is that
the dcache update code isn't reached when a caller explicitly writes
raw memory. Breakpoint insertion/removal is one such case --
mem-break.c uses target_write_read_memory/target_write_raw_memory.
The fix is to move the dcache update code from memory_xfer_partial_1
to raw_memory_xfer_partial so that it's always reachable.
When we do that, we can actually simplify a series of things.
memory_xfer_partial_1 no longer needs to handle writes for any kind of
memory object, and therefore dcache_xfer_memory no longer needs to
handle writes either. So the latter (dcache_xfer_memory) and its
callees can be simplified to only care about reads. While we're
touching dcache_xfer_memory's prototype, might as well rename it to
reflect that fact that it only handles reads, and make it follow the
new target_xfer_status/xfered_len style. This made me notice that
dcache_xfer_memory loses the real error status if a memory read fails:
we could have failed to read due to TARGET_XFER_E_UNAVAILABLE, for
instance, but we always return TARGET_XFER_E_IO, hence the FIXME note.
I felt that fixing that fell out of the scope of this patch.
Currently dcache_xfer_memory handles the case of a write failing. The
whole cache line is invalidated when that happens. However,
dcache_update, the sole mechanism for handling writes that will remain
after the patch, does not presently handle that scenario. That's a
bug. The patch makes it handle that, by passing down the
target_xfer_status status from the caller, so that it can better
decide what to do itself. While I was changing the function's
prototype, I constified the myaddr parameter, getting rid of the need
for the cast as seen in its existing caller.
Tested on x86_64 Fedora 17, native and gdbserver.

This changes the probes to be independent of the program space.
After this, when a probe's address is needed, it is determined by
applying offsets at the point of use.
This introduces a bound_probe object, similar to bound minimal
symbols. Objects of this type are used when it's necessary to pass a
probe and its corresponding objfile.
This removes the backlink from probe to objfile, which was primarily
used to fetch the architecture to use.
This adds a get_probe_address function which calls a probe method to
compute the probe's relocated address. Similarly, it adds an objfile
parameter to the semaphore methods so they can do the relocation
properly as well.

GDBserver currently hangs forever in waitpid if the leader thread
exits before other threads, or if all resumed threads exit - e.g.,
next over a thread exit with sched-locking on. This is exposed by
leader-exit.exp. leader-exit.exp is part of a series of tests for a
set of related problems. See
<http://www.sourceware.org/ml/gdb-patches/2011-10/msg00704.html>:
"
To recap, on the Linux kernel, ptrace/waitpid don't allow reaping the
leader thread until all other threads in the group are reaped. When
the leader exits, it goes zombie, but waitpid will not return an exit
status until the other threads are gone. This is presently exercised
by the gdb.threads/leader-exit.exp test. The fix for that test, in
linux-nat.c:wait_lwp, handles the case where we see the leader gone
when we're stopping all threads to report an event to some other
thread to the core.
(...)
The latter bit about not blocking if there no resumed threads in the
process also applies to some other thread exiting, not just the main
thread. E.g., this test starts a thread, and runs to a breakpoint in
that thread:
...

The gdb.threads/non-ldr-exc-*.exp tests are skipped because GDBserver
unfortunately doesn't support fork/exec yet, but I'm confident this
fixes the related issues.
I'm leaving modeling TARGET_WAITKIND_NO_RESUMED in the RSP for a
separate pass.
(BTW, in case of error in response to a vCont, it would be better for
GDB to query the target for the current thread, or re-select one,
instead of assuming current inferior_ptid is still the selected
thread.)
This implementation is a little different from GDB's, because I'm
avoiding bringing in more of this broken use of waitpid(PID) into
GDBserver. Specifically, this avoids waitpid(PID) when stopping all
threads. There's really no need for wait_for_sigstop to wait for each
LWP in turn. Instead, with some refactoring, we make it reuse
linux_wait_for_event.

This GDBserver patch mirrors a change made in GDB wich aims at
simplifying DLL handling during the inferior initialization

Instead of processing each DLL load event, which is sometimes
incomplete, we ignore these events until the inferior has completed
its startup phase, and then just iterate over all DLLs via
EnumProcessModules.
As a side-effect, it fixes a small bug where win32_ensure_ntdll_loaded
was missing a 0x1000 offset in the DLL base address. This problem

Starting with DWARF version 4, the description of the DW_AT_high_pc
attribute was amended to say:
if it is of class constant, the value is an unsigned integer offset
which when added to the low PC gives the address of the first
location past the last instruction associated with the entity.
A change was made in Apr 27th, 2012 to reflect that change:
| commit 91da14142c
| Author: Mark Wielaard <mjw@redhat.com>
| Date: Fri Apr 27 18:55:19 2012 +0000
|
| * dwarf2read.c (dwarf2_get_pc_bounds): Check DW_AT_high_pc form to
| see whether it is an address or a constant offset from DW_AT_low_pc.
| (dwarf2_record_block_ranges): Likewise.
| (read_partial_die): Likewise.
Unfortunately, this new interpretation is now used regardless of
the CU's DWARF version. It turns out that one of WindRiver's compilers
(FTR: Diabdata 4.4) is generating DWARF version 2 info with
DW_AT_high_pc attributes improperly using the data4 form. Because of
that, we miscompute all high PCs incorrectly. This leads to a lot of
symtabs having overlapping ranges, which in turn causes havoc in
pc-to-symtab-and-line translations.
One visible effect is when inserting a breakpoint on a given function:
(gdb) b world
Breakpoint 1 at 0x4005c4
The source location of the breakpoint is missing. The output should be:
(gdb) b world
Breakpoint 1 at 0x4005c8: file dw2-rel-hi-pc-world.c, line 24.
What happens in this case is that the pc-to-SAL translation first
starts be trying to find the symtab associated to our PC using
each symtab's ranges. Because of the high_pc miscomputation,
many symtabs end up matching, and the heuristic trying to select
the most probable one unfortunately returns one that is unrelated
(it really had no change in this case to do any better). Once we
have the wrong symtab, the start searching the associated linetable,
where the addresses are correct, thus finding no match, and therefore
no SAL.
This patch is an attempt at handling the situation as gracefully
as we can, without guarantees. It introduces a new function
"attr_value_as_address" which uses the correct accessor for getting
the value of a given attribute. It then adjust the code throughout
this unit to use this function instead of assuming that addresses always
have the DW_FORM_addr format.
It also fixes the original issue of miscomputing the high_pc
by limiting the new interpretation of constant form DW_AT_high_pc
attributes to units using DWARF version 4 or later.

Tested on x86_64-linux.
Right now the "file" command will discard the exec_bfd and then
possibly open a new one.
If this ends up reopening the same file, it can cause needless work by
gdb -- destroying all the per-BFD data just to re-read it again.
This patch changes the code to hold a reference to the old exec_bfd
while opening the new one.
The possible downside of this is a higher peak memory use.

* exec.c (exec_file_attach): Hold a reference to exec_bfd.
If minimal symbols have already been read into a per-BFD object, then
a symbol reader can skip re-reading them. This changes the ELF reader
to do so.
We only skip the work if the file is ELF+DWARF. If it has stabs or
mdebug sections, then I think extra information is computed during the
minsym creation pass; and so we must still repeat it. Eventually even
this will go away, once all symbol types have switched to being
progspace-independent. In the meantime this has no negative effect --
it is just a missing optimization for a small set of users.
This change also required a somewhat non-obvious change to the OBJSTAT
accounting code. If a symbol reader skips re-reading minimal symbols,
then the corresponding OBJSTAT will not be updated. This leads to a
test failure in gdb.base/maint.exp.
To fix this, I've moved the needed stat field out of objfile and into
the per-BFD object.

* elfread.c (elf_read_minimal_symbols): New function, from
elf_symfile_read.
(elf_symfile_read): Call it.
Now that minimal symbols are independent of the program space, we can
move them to the per-BFD object. This lets us save memory in the
multi-inferior case; and, once the symbol readers are updated, time.
The other prerequisite for this move is that all the objects referred
to by the minimal symbols have a lifetime at least as long as the
per-BFD object. I think this is satisfied partially by this patch
(moving the copied names there) and partially by earlier patches
moving the demangled name hash.
This patch contains a bit of logic to avoid creating new minimal
symbols if they have already been read for a given BFD. This allows
us to avoid trying to update all the symbol readers for this
condition. At first glance this may seem like a hack, but some symbol
readers mix psym and minsym reading, and would require logic just like
this regardless -- and it is simpler and less error-prone to just do
the work in a central spot.

This removes the runtime offsets from minsyms. Instead, these offsets

This patch redefines MSYMBOL_VALUE_ADDRESS to actually use the offsets
from the given objfile. Then, it updates all the symbol readers,
changing them so that they do not add in the section offset when
creating the symbol.
This change also lets us remove relocation of minsyms from
objfile_relocate1 and also msymbols_sort.

This introduces minimal_symbol_upper_bound and changes various bits of
code to use it. Since this function is intimately tied to the
implementation of minimal symbol tables, I believe it belongs in
minsyms.c.
The new function is extracted from find_pc_partial_function_gnu_ifunc.
This isn't a "clean" move because the old function interleaved the
caching and the computation; but this doesn't make sense for the new

Consider the following type for which we would like to provide
a pretty-printer and manage it via RegexpCollectionPrettyPrinter:
typedef long time_t;
Currently, this does not work because this framework only considers
the type's tag name:
typename = gdb.types.get_basic_type(val.type).tag
if not typename:
return None
This patch extends it to use the type's name if the basic type
does not have a tag name, thus allowing the framework to also
work with typedefs like the above.

This comment explains why we sometimes sign-extend the range type
bounds when we normally shouldn't have to.
gdb/ChangeLog:
* dwarf2read.c (read_subrange_type): Add comment.
Consider the following Ada code:
-- An array whose index is an enumeration type with 128 enumerators.
type Enum_T is (Enum_000, Enum_001, [...], Enum_128);
type Table is array (Enum_T) of Boolean;
When the compiler is configured to generate pure DWARF debugging info,
trying to print type Table's description yields:
ptype pck.table
type = array (enum_000 .. -128) of boolean
The expected output was:
ptype pck.table
type = array (enum_000 .. enum_128) of boolean
The DWARF debugging info for our array looks like this:
<1><44>: Abbrev Number: 5 (DW_TAG_array_type)
<45> DW_AT_name : pck__table
<50> DW_AT_type : <0x28>
<2><54>: Abbrev Number: 6 (DW_TAG_subrange_type)
<55> DW_AT_type : <0x5c>
<59> DW_AT_lower_bound : 0
<5a> DW_AT_upper_bound : 128
The array index type is, by construction with the DWARF standard,
a subrange of our enumeration type, defined as follow:
<2><5b>: Abbrev Number: 0
<1><5c>: Abbrev Number: 7 (DW_TAG_enumeration_type)
<5d> DW_AT_name : pck__enum_t
<69> DW_AT_byte_size : 1
<2><6b>: Abbrev Number: 8 (DW_TAG_enumerator)
<6c> DW_AT_name : pck__enum_000
<7a> DW_AT_const_value : 0
[etc]
Therefore, while processing these DIEs, the array index type ends
up being a TYPE_CODE_RANGE whose target type is our enumeration type.
But the problem is that we read the upper bound as a negative value
(-128), which is then used as is by the type printer to print the
array upper bound. This negative value explains the "-128" in the
output.
To understand why the range type's upper bound is read as a negative
value, one needs to look at how it is determined, in read_subrange_type:
orig_base_type = die_type (die, cu);
base_type = check_typedef (orig_base_type);
[... high is first correctly read as 128, but then ...]
if (!TYPE_UNSIGNED (base_type) && (high & negative_mask))
high |= negative_mask;
The negative_mask is applied, here, because BASE_TYPE->FLAG_UNSIGNED
is not set. And the reason for that is because the base_type was only
partially constructed during the call to die_type. While the enum
is constructed on the fly by read_enumeration_type, its flag_unsigned
flag is only set later on, while creating the symbols corresponding to
the enum type's enumerators (see process_enumeration_scope), after
we've already finished creating our range type - and therefore too
late.
My first naive attempt at fixing this problem consisted in extracting
the part in process_enumeration_scope which processes all enumerators,
to generate the associated symbols, but more importantly set the type's
various flags when necessary. However, this does not always work well,
because we're still in the subrange_type's scope, and it might be
different from the scope where the enumeration type is defined.
So, instead, what this patch does to fix the issue is to extract
from process_enumeration_scope the part that determines whether
the enumeration type should have the flag_unsigned and/or the
flag_flag_enum flags set. It turns out that, aside from the code
implementing the loop, this part is fairly independent of the symbol
creation. With that part extracted, we can then use it at the end
of our enumeration type creation, to produce a type which should now
no longer need any adjustment.
Once the enumeration type produced is correctly marked as unsigned,
the subrange type's upper bound is then correctly read as an unsigned
value, therefore giving us an upper bound of 128 instead of -128.

it does is delegate to the target beneath unconditionally, which is
what the delegator installed by target-delegates.c will do for us if

Unfortunately djgpp's write_child function takes a non-const buffer
pointer, while GDB's xfer_partial api passes a const pointer. To be
const-correct, we need to copy that buffer to a non-const buffer, and
pass the copy to write_child. This is actually what
target.c:default_xfer_partial itself does, when calling into the
ops->deprecated_xfer_memory hook.

Consider the following declarations in Ada...
type Item is range -32 .. 31;
for Item'Size use 6;
type Table is array (Natural range 0 .. 4) of Item;
pragma Pack (Table);
... which declare a packed array whose elements are 6 bits long.
The debugger currently does not notice that the array is packed,
and thus prints values of this type incorrectly. This can be seen
in the "ptype" output:
(gdb) ptype table
type = array (0 .. 4) of foo.item
Normally, the debugger should print:
(gdb) ptype table
type = array (0 .. 4) of foo.item <packed: 6-bit elements>
The debugging information for this array looks like this:
.uleb128 0xf # (DIE (0x15c) DW_TAG_array_type)
.long .LASF9 # DW_AT_name: "pck__table"
.byte 0x6 # DW_AT_bit_stride
.long 0x1a9 # DW_AT_type
.uleb128 0x10 # (DIE (0x16a) DW_TAG_subrange_type)
.long 0x3b # DW_AT_type
.byte 0 # DW_AT_lower_bound
.byte 0x4 # DW_AT_upper_bound
.byte 0 # end of children of DIE 0x15c
The interesting part is the DW_AT_bit_stride attribute, which tells
the size of the array elements is 6 bits, rather than the normal
element type's size.
This patch adds support for this attribute by first creating
gdbtypes.c::create_array_type_with_stride, which is an enhanced
version of create_array_type taking an extra parameter as the stride.
The old create_array_type can then be re-implemented very simply
by calling the new create_array_type_with_stride.
We can then use this new function from dwarf2read, to create
arrays with or without stride.
gdb/ChangeLog:
* gdbtypes.h (create_array_type_with_stride): Add declaration.

* gdb.dwarf2/arr-stride.exp: New file.
The test, relying purely on generating an assembly file, only
verifies the type description of our array. But I was also
able to verify manually that the debugger print values of these
types correctly as well (which was not the case prior to this
patch).
With the test changed as in the patch, against current mainline, we get:

The breakpoint that caused a stop is breakpoint 3, but GDB end up
reporting (and running breakpoint commands of) "Breakpoint 2" instead.
The issue is that the bpstat_check_breakpoint_conditions logic of
"wrong thread" is missing the "wrong task" check. This is usually
harmless, because the thread hop code in infrun.c code that handles
wrong-task-hitting-breakpoint does check for task-specific breakpoints
(within breakpoint_thread_match):
/* Check if a regular breakpoint has been hit before checking
for a potential single step breakpoint. Otherwise, GDB will
not see this breakpoint hit when stepping onto breakpoints. */
if (regular_breakpoint_inserted_here_p (aspace, stop_pc))
{
if (!breakpoint_thread_match (aspace, stop_pc, ecs->ptid))
thread_hop_needed = 1;
}
IOW, usually, when one only has a task specific breakpoint at a given
address, things work correctly. Put another task-specific or
non-task-specific breakpoint there, and things break.
A patch that eliminates the special thread hop code in infrun.c is
what exposed this, as after that GDB solely relies on
bpstat_check_breakpoint_conditions to know whether the right or wrong
task hit a breakpoint. IOW, given the latent bug, Ada task-specific
breakpoints become non-task-specific, and that is caught by the
testsuite, as:
break break_me task 3

[description of this patch and ChangeLog entry by Joel Brobecker]
The recent implementation was questionable, and if it worked, it was
only by chance because the requested length is large enough that only
one read was sufficient. Note that the implementation before that
also made that assumption, in the form of only handling
TARGET_OBJECT_UNWIND_TABLE xfer requests when offset was zero.

ia64-linux-nat.c no longer compiles because ia64_linux_xfer_partial
no longer matches the to_xfer_partial prototype. This patch fixes
the problem by adjusting it accordingly.
gdb/ChangeLog:
* ia64-linux-nat.c (ia64_linux_xfer_partial): Add function
documentation. Adjust prototype to match the target_ops
to_xfer_partial method. Adjust implementation accordingly.
This patch changes rl78-tdep.c so that a 16-bit type is used for
register pairs instead of a pointer type as was previously the case.
This will cause these register pairs to be displayed as integers
instead of as a data address with a 0xf0000 ORed in.
E.g. registers ax, bc, de, and hl might now be displayed like this:
(gdb) info registers ax bc de hl
ax 0x6 6
bc 0x0 0
de 0x10c3 4291
hl 0x108d 423
Whereas, before, they were displayed as follows:
(gdb) info registers ax bc de hl
ax 0xf0006 0xf0006
bc 0xf0000 0xf0000
de 0xf10c3 0xf10c3
hl 0xf108d 0xf108d
These pairs are 16 bit quantities and should be displayed as such.
This change also affects the way that the banked register pairs are
displayed. Within GDB, the banked register pairs are named bank0_rp0,
bank0_rp1, .., bank3_rp2, bank3_rp3.
However, these register pairs need to be used as addresses in DWARF
expressions. I have added 16 pseudo registers corresponding to banked
register pairs. These new pseudo registers are all hidden from the
user and have a pointer type. Values from these registers are
intended to be used in DWARF expressions. Therefore,
rl78_dwarf_reg_to_regnum() has been adjusted to return these new
pseudo register numbers.
I had a much simpler patch which only changed the types, but it showed
a number of regressions due to integer values from the banked register
pairs being used as part of an address expression. This current patch
shows no regressions and now displays values of register pairs
correctly.

The regression was introduced by the to_xfer_partial transition
to return a status enum. procfs_xfer_partial was updated but
not the case where object is TARGET_OBJECT_MEMORY. As result,
procfs_xfer_partial was returning the length xfered rather than
the status, and the xfered buffer was left uninitialized.

In the original code, len is returned, which could be 0, but after that
commit, only TARGET_XFER_OK is returned, which is wrong. If len is 0,
TARGET_XFER_EOF should be returned. (it is 0 in enum

Look for stat2proc.
Given ps does that, I believe the kernel won't ever be changed

The patch "return target_xfer_status in to_xfer_partial" caused a
regression in various s390(x) test cases, because memory_xfer_partial
filled only the first byte of the read buffer from a breakpoint shadow:
https://sourceware.org/ml/gdb-patches/2014-01/msg01071.html
This patch fixes the regression.
I realized that the name of this test only made sense when considering
the old (never committed) implementation of the fix that came along
with the test originally, that forced a schedlock while a step-resume
(to get over the signal handler) was inserted. The final solution
that went into the tree does not force that locking.
So this renames it to something more descriptive.

This is the continuation of what Joel proposed on:
<https://sourceware.org/ml/gdb-patches/2013-12/msg00977.html>
Now that I have already submitted and pushed the patch to split
i386_stap_parse_special_token into two smaller functions, it is indeed
simpler to understand this patch.
It occurs because, on x86, triplet displacement operands are allowed
(like "-4+8-20(%rbp)"), and the current parser for this expression is
buggy. It does not correctly extract the register name from the
expression, which leads to incorrect evaluation. The parser was also
being very "generous" with the expression, so I included a few more
checks to ensure that we're indeed dealing with a triplet displacement
operand.
This patch also includes testcases for the two different kind of
expressions that can be encountered on x86: the triplet displacement
(explained above) and the three-argument displacement (as in
"(%rbx,%ebx,-8)"). The tests are obviously arch-dependent and are
placed under gdb.arch/.

This patch brings back a comment that got stripped down a bit too much
during a recent change.
gdb/ChangeLog:
* windows-nat.c (handle_unload_dll): Add function documentation.
(do_initial_windows_stuff): Add comment explaining why we wait
until after inferior initialization has finished before
processing all DLLs.
Now that get_module_name is no longer called for handling DLL events,
we can simplify it a bit, knowing that the only use is to get the
executable's filename.
While doing so, we adjusted the implementation a bit to avoid
references to DLLs, renamed it to make its more-targeted usage
more explicit, moved it right before the only function that uses it.
We also remove the use of hard-coded length for the buffers being
used.
gdb/ChangeLog:
* windows-nat.c (get_module_name): Delete.
(windows_get_exec_module_filename): New function, mostly
inspired from get_module_name.
(windows_pid_to_exec_file): Replace call to get_module_name
by call to windows_get_exec_module_filename.
When a DLL gets loaded an the debugger gets a debug event about it,
the currently implementation in handle_load_dll currently tries to
fetch the DLL's name by first iterating over all DLLs known to
the system. It should be sufficient to rely on the name provided
with the event, however, especially in the situation we are now,
where we now know that we're past the statup phase for our inferior.
This patch therefore simplifies windows-nat.c::handle_load_dll to
only rely on the event's lpImageName.
It also updates the function's comment to document the assumption
regarding not being during the inferior's startup phase. And while
at it, it fixes the function documentation, which was probably
unintentionally inherited from another function (perhaps windows_wait).
gdb/ChangeLog:
* windows-nat.c (handle_load_dll): Rewrite this function's
introductory comment. Remove code using get_module_name
to get the DLL's name.
This patch aims at simplifying DLL handling during the inferior
initialization (process creation during the "run", or during an
"attach"). Instead of processing each DLL load event, which is
sometimes incomplete, we ignore these events until the inferior
has completed its startup phase, and then just iterate over all
DLLs via EnumProcessModules.
gdb/ChangeLog:
* windows-nat.c (get_windows_debug_event): Ignore
LOAD_DLL_DEBUG_EVENT and UNLOAD_DLL_DEBUG_EVENT
if windows_initialization_done == 0.
(windows_add_all_dlls): Renames windows_ensure_ntdll_loaded.
Adjust implementation to always load all DLLs.
(do_initial_windows_stuff): Replace call to
windows_ensure_ntdll_loaded by call to windows_add_all_dlls.
The "dll-symbols" command, specific to native Windows platforms,
gives the impression that the symbols were not loaded, first
because it completes silently, and second because the "info shared"
output does not get updated after the command completes:
(gdb) dll-symbols C:\WINDOWS\syswow64\rpcrt4.dll
(gdb) info shared
From To Syms Read Shared Object Library
[...]
0x77e51000 0x77ee2554 No C:\WINDOWS\system32\rpcrt4.dll
(we exected the "Syms Read" column to read "Yes").
As far as I can tell, the symbols actually do get loaded, but completely
independently from the solib framework, which explains the silent
loading and the fact that the "Syms Read" column does not get updated.
See windows-nat.c::safe_symbol_file_add_stub, which calls symbol_file_add
instead of calling solib_add.
But, aside from the fact that the "Syms Read" status does not get
updated, I also noticed that it does not take into account the DLL's
actual load address when loading its symbols. As a result, I believe
that we get it wrong if the DLL does not get loaded at the prefered
address.
Rather than trying to fix this command, there does not seem to be
a reason other than historical for having Windows-specific commands
which essentially re-implements the "sharedlibrary" command. The
command interface is slightly different (the latter takes a regexp
rather than a plain filename), but it should be just as easy to use
the "sharedlibrary" command, or its "share" alias, as usisng the
"dll-symbols" command. For instance:
(gdb) share rpcrt4.dll
Reading symbols from C:\WINDOWS\system32\rpcrt4.dll...(no debugging symbols found)...done.
Loaded symbols for C:\WINDOWS\system32\rpcrt4.dll
(gdb) info shared
From To Syms Read Shared Object Library
[...]
0x77e51000 0x77ee2554 Yes (*) C:\WINDOWS\system32\rpcrt4.dll
This patch therefore deprecates the "dll-symbols" command, as well
as its two aliases "add-shared-symbol-files" and "assf", with a view
of deleting them as soon as the 7.8 branch gets cut.
gdb/ChangeLog:

(Cygwin Native): Likewise for "dll-symbols".
(Non-debug DLL Symbols): Remove reference to "dll-symbols"
as a way to force the loading of symbols from a DLL.
This patch fixes the following ARI warning:
gdb/dec-thread.c:695: regression: multi-line string: Multi-line string
must have the newline escaped
I think the new-line was unintentional, so I simply removed it,
and then reformatted the string to fit within our 70-80 max characters-
per-line rule.
gdb/ChangeLog:
* dec-thread.c (dec_thread_get_ada_task_ptid): Avoid unescaped
new-line in debug string. Remove trailing spaces.
* gdbthread.h (add_thread): Change result type to struct thread_info *.
* inferiors.c (add_thread): Change result type to struct thread_info *.
All callers updated.
(add_lwp): Call add_thread here instead of in callers.
All callers updated.
* linux-low.h (get_lwp_thread): Rewrite.
(struct lwp_info): New member "thread".
This speeds up gdbserver attach in non-stop mode because now get_lwp_thread
doesn't do a linear search for the corresponding thread_info object.
* NEWS: Add entry for the new feature
* python/py-value.c (valpy_binop): Call value_x_binop for struct
and class values.
testsuite/
* gdb.python/py-value-cc.cc: Improve test case to enable testing
operations on gdb.Value objects.
* gdb.python/py-value-cc.exp: Add new test to test operations on
gdb.Value objects.

It's best that we standardize on process_stratum targets using the
ptid.lwp field to store thread ids. The idea being leave the ptid.tid
field free for any thread_stratum target that might want to sit on
top. This patch adds a comment in that direction to struct ptid's
definition.

* common/ptid.h (struct ptid): Mention that process_stratum
targets should prefer ptid.lwp.
From GDB's perspective, independently of how the target really
implements threads, gdb/remote sees all threads as if kernel/system
threads. A rationale along theses lines led to gdbserver storing
thread ids in ptid.lwp in all ports.
Because remote.c is currently using ptid.tid, we can't make gdbserver
and gdb share bits of remote-specific code that manipulates ptids
(e.g., write_ptid/read_ptid).
This patch thus makes remote.c use ptid.lwp instead of ptid.tid.
I believe that on the GDB side too, it's best that we standardize on
process_stratum targets using the ptid.lwp field to store thread ids
anyway. The idea being leave the ptid.tid field free for any
thread_stratum target that might want to sit on top.
Tested on x86_64 Fedora 17, w/ local gdbserver.

(read_ptid, remote_newthread_step, remote_threads_extra_info)
(remote_get_ada_task_ptid, append_resumption, remote_stop_ns)
(threadalive_test, remote_pid_to_str): Use the ptid.lwp field to
store remote thread ids rather than ptid.tid.
(_initialize_remote): Adjust.
This converts to_get_unwinder and to_get_tailcall_unwinder to methods
and arranges for them to use the new delegation scheme.
This just lets us avoid having a differing style (neither new-style
nor INHERIT) of delegation in the tree.
2014-02-19 Tom Tromey <tromey@redhat.com>
* target.c (target_get_unwinder): Rewrite.
(target_get_tailcall_unwinder): Rewrite.
* record-btrace.c (record_btrace_to_get_unwinder): New function.
(record_btrace_to_get_tailcall_unwinder): New function.
(init_record_btrace_ops): Update.
* target.h (struct target_ops) <to_get_unwinder,
to_get_tailcall_unwinder>: Now function pointers. Use
TARGET_DEFAULT_RETURN.
I happened to notice that nto-procfs.c defines
procfs_remove_hw_breakpoint but never uses it. This caused it not to
be updated by my target-method-updating script. This patch fixes the
function and installs it properly. I have no way to test this,
however.
2014-02-19 Tom Tromey <tromey@redhat.com>
* nto-procfs.c (procfs_remove_hw_breakpoint): Add 'self'
argument.
(init_procfs_ops): Correctly set to_remove_hw_breakpoint.
This converts to_decr_pc_after_break to the new style of delegation,
removing forward_target_decr_pc_after_break.
2014-02-19 Tom Tromey <tromey@redhat.com>
* record-btrace.c (record_btrace_decr_pc_after_break): Delegate
directly.
* target-delegates.c: Rebuild.
* target.h (struct target_ops) <to_decr_pc_after_break>: Use
TARGET_DEFAULT_FUNC.
* target.c (default_target_decr_pc_after_break): Rename from
forward_target_decr_pc_after_break. Simplify.
(target_decr_pc_after_break): Rely on delegation.
This removes a few unnecessary calls to INHERIT and de_fault:
* to_doc is only used when a target is registered
* to_magic is only used when a target is pushed and not useful for
current_target.
* to_open and to_close are only ever called using a specific
target_ops object; there is no need to de_fault them.
2014-02-19 Tom Tromey <tromey@redhat.com>
* target.c (update_current_target): Do not INHERIT to_doc or
to_magic. Do not de_fault to_open or to_close.
exec_set_find_memory_regions is used to modify the exec target.
However, it only has a single caller, and so it is much clearer to
simply set the appropriate field directly. It's also better for the
coming multi-target world to avoid this kind of global state change
anyway.
2014-02-19 Tom Tromey <tromey@redhat.com>
* gcore.h (objfile_find_memory_regions): Declare.
* gcore.c (objfile_find_memory_regions): No longer static. Add
"self" argument.
(_initialize_gcore): Don't call exec_set_find_memory_regions.
* exec.c: Include gcore.h.
(exec_set_find_memory_regions): Remove.
(exec_find_memory_regions): Remove.
(exec_do_find_memory_regions): Remove.
(init_exec_ops): Update.
* defs.h (exec_set_find_memory_regions): Remove.
This changes instances of TARGET_DEFAULT_RETURN(0) to
TARGET_DEFAULT_RETURN(NULL) when appropriate. The use of "0" was a
relic from an earlier implementation of make-target-delegates; and I
didn't want to go back through the long patch series, fixing up
conflicts, just to change this small detail.
2014-02-19 Tom Tromey <tromey@redhat.com>
* target-delegates.c: Rebuild.
* target.h (struct target_ops) <to_extra_thread_info,
to_thread_name, to_pid_to_exec_file, to_get_section_table,
to_memory_map, to_read_description, to_traceframe_info>: Use NULL,
not 0, in TARGET_DEFAULT_RETURN.
This cleans up target.c to avoid function casts.
2014-02-19 Tom Tromey <tromey@redhat.com>
* target.c (complete_target_initialization): Remove casts. Use
return_zero_has_execution.
(return_zero): Add "ignore" argument.
(return_zero_has_execution): New function.
(init_dummy_target): Remove casts. Use
return_zero_has_execution.
During the conversion I kept all the "do not inherit" comments in
update_current_target. However, now they are not needed. This patch
updates the comments for INHERIT and de_fault, and removes the
somewhat odd INHERIT of to_stratum.
2014-02-19 Tom Tromey <tromey@redhat.com>
* target.c (update_current_target): Update comments. Do not
INHERIT to_stratum.
This switches to_read_description to the "new normal" delegation
scheme. This one was a bit trickier than the other changes due to the
way that target_read_description handled delegation. I examined all
the target implementations of to_read_description and changed the ones
returning NULL to instead delegate.
2014-02-19 Tom Tromey <tromey@redhat.com>
* arm-linux-nat.c (arm_linux_read_description): Delegate when
needed.
* corelow.c (core_read_description): Delegate when needed.
* remote.c (remote_read_description): Delegate when needed.
* target-delegates.c: Rebuild.
* target.c (target_read_description): Rewrite.
* target.h (struct target_ops) <to_read_description>: Update
comment. Use TARGET_DEFAULT_RETURN.
