This patch fixes imbalanced lwp_suspend/unsuspend calls caused by the
premature choosing of another event for fairness.
select_event_lwp would switch the event before a call to
unsuspend_all_lwps, thus it would be called with the wrong event.
This caused an assertion failure: unsuspend LWP xx, suspended=-1 when
testing gdb.threads/non-stop-fair-events.exp with ARM range stepping in
GDBServer.
This patch moves the switch of event after the unsuspend/unstop calls.
No regressions, tested on ubuntu 14.04 ARMv7 and x86.
With gdbserver-native.

C++ does not officially support designators in initializer lists. Thus
some compilers may issue errors when encountering them. Modern versions
of GCC seem to allow them by default, as a GCC extension, even though
the GCC documentation explicitly states otherwise: "[...] This extension
is not implemented in GNU C++." But some older GCC versions (like
4.4.7) did indeed emit an error instead, like this:
.../gdb/xtensa-config.c:219: error: expected primary-expression before
‘.’ token
This patch removes the only such instance I've seen when building with
'--enable-targets=all'.

GLIBC BZ#20311 [1] proc_service.h install patch also remove 'const'
attributes from ps_get_thread_area and comment #15 discuss why to remove
the const attribute (basically since it a callback with the struct
ps_prochandle owned by the client it should be able to modify it if
it the case).
On default build this is not the issue and current g++ does not trigger
any issue with this mismatch declaration. However, on some bootstrap
build configuration where gdbserver is build with gcc instead this
triggers:
error: conflicting types for 'ps_get_thread_area'
This patch fixes it by syncing the declaration with GLIBC.

This test case verifies that GDB will not attempt to invoke a python

Note that GDB's problems go well beyond the fact that it invokes the
unwinder recursively. In the process it messes up some internal state
(the frame stash) leading to display of (only) the sentinel frame in
the backtrace.

This patch allows the user to set the inferior-tty to "empty", in order
to come back to the default behaviour of using the same tty as gdb is
using.
This is already supported in MI (and tested in gdb.mi/mi-basics.exp).
I added a new test, set-inferior-tty.exp, where I test only the setting
and unsetting of the parameter. It would be nice to actually test that
the inferior output properly goes to the separate tty, but that will be
for another day.

It is my understanding that GDB used to require each architecture to
define a Frame Pointer (fp). However, this functionality was deprecated
some time ago so the call to setup the fp_reg was changed to deprecated
(set_gdbarch_deprecated_fp_regnum). It should have been removed from the
Power code.
That said, the code "set_gdbarch_deprecated_fp_regnum
(gdbarch, PPC_R0_REGNUM + 1);" sets up register r1 as the frame pointer.
Register r1 is no longer used to hold the frame pointer on Power. By
removing the fp definition for Power in GDB, it causes GDB to fall back
to the call get_frame_base_address (frame) which returns the correct value
depending on the specific senario but most of the time is the DWARF
canonical frame address.

* rs6000-tdep.c (rs6000_gdbarch_init): Remove call
set_gdbarch_deprecated_fp_regnum() from initialization function.
This patch fixes a problem that problem triggers if you start an
inferior, e.g., with the "start" command, in a UI created with the
new-ui command, and then run a foreground execution command in the
main UI. Once the program stops for the latter command, typing in the
main UI no longer echoes back to the user.
The problem revolves around this:
- gdb_has_a_terminal computes its result lazily, on first call.
that is what saves gdb's initial main UI terminal state (the UI
associated with stdin):
our_terminal_info.ttystate = serial_get_tty_state (stdin_serial);
This is the state that target_terminal_ours() restores.
- In this scenario, the gdb_has_a_terminal function happens to be
first ever called from within the target_terminal_init call in
startup_inferior:
(top-gdb) bt
#0 gdb_has_a_terminal () at src/gdb/inflow.c:157
#1 0x000000000079db22 in child_terminal_init_with_pgrp () at src/gdb/inflow.c:217
[...]
#4 0x000000000065bacb in target_terminal_init () at src/gdb/target.c:456
#5 0x00000000004676d2 in startup_inferior () at src/gdb/fork-child.c:531
[...]
#7 0x000000000046b168 in linux_nat_create_inferior () at src/gdb/linux-nat.c:1112
[...]
#9 0x00000000005f20c9 in start_command (args=0x0, from_tty=1) at src/gdb/infcmd.c:657
If the command to start the inferior is issued on the main UI, then
readline will have deprepped the terminal when we reach the above, and
the problem doesn't appear.
If however the command is issued on a non-main UI, then when we reach
that gdb_has_a_terminal call, the main UI's terminal state is still
set to whatever readline has sets it to in rl_prep_terminal, which
happens to have echo disabled. Later, when the following synchronous
execution command finishes, we'll call target_terminal_ours to restore
gdb's the main UI's terminal settings, and that restores the terminal
state with echo disabled...
Conceptually, the fix is to move the gdb_has_a_terminal call earlier,
to someplace during GDB initialization, before readline/ncurses have
had a chance to change terminal settings. Turns out that
"set_initial_gdb_ttystate" is exactly such a place.
I say conceptually, because the fix actually inlines the
gdb_has_a_terminal part that saves the terminal state in
set_initial_gdb_ttystate and then simplifies gdb_has_a_terminal, since
there's no point in making gdb_has_a_terminal do lazy computation.

Hi,
I happen to see gdbserver is spawned like this in gdb.log,
spawn /scratch/yao/gdb/build-git/x86_64/gdb/testsuite/../../gdb/gdbserver/gdbserver --once :2346 /scratch/yao/gdb/build-git/x86_64/gdb/testsuite/outputs/gdb.s

erver/connect-stopped-target/connect-stopped-target /scratch/yao/gdb/build-git/x86_64/gdb/testsuite/outputs/gdb.server/connect-stopped-target/connect-stopped-t
arget
as we can see, there are two instances of connect-stopped-target or
connect-stopped-target in the command line spawning gdbserver, but
none of these gets parameters from command line. In these two
tests, gdbserver is spawned via "gdbserver_spawn ${binfile}". However,
the argument of gdbserver_spawn is the argument passed the child
inferior, not the program itself.
# Start a gdbserver process running SERVER_EXEC, and connect GDB
# to it. CHILD_ARGS are passed to the inferior.
#
# Returns the target protocol and socket to connect to.
proc gdbserver_spawn { child_args } {
set target_exec [gdbserver_download_current_prog]
GDBserver gets the program via last_loaded_file, which is set by
gdb_file_cmd. In each test, we don't need to pass ${binfile}.

Loading a core dump that was either generated on a system running

The problem is that gdbarch_vsyscall_range does not support core

When live debugging, we're finding the vDSO's start address with
auxv/AT_SYSINFO_EHDR, and then we find the vDSO's size by look for the
corresponding mapping, by parsing /proc/PID/maps. When debugging a
core dump, we can also determine the starting address from
auxv/AT_SYSINFO_EHDR. However, we obviously can't read the core
mappings out of the host's /proc. But we can instead look for a
corresponding load segment in the core's bfd.

Nowadays, we only match pre-indexed STP in prologue. Due to the change
in gcc, https://gcc.gnu.org/ml/gcc-patches/2016-07/msg01933.html, it
may generate "STP with base register" in prologue, which GDB doesn't
handle. That is to say, previously GCC generates prologue like this,
sub sp, sp, #490
stp x29, x30, [sp, #-96]!
mov x29, sp
with the gcc patch above, GCC generates prologue like like this,
sub sp, sp, #4f0

This test only collects the PC, and thus expects to only see one

the 64-bit ABI gdb only exposes 64-bit $pc/$rip (register 16 above),

The test sets a fast tracepoint on a shared library. On x32, shared
libraries end up loaded somewhere in the upper 2GB of the 4GB address
space x32 has access to. When gdbserver needs to copy an instruction
to execute it in the jump pad, it asks gdb to relocate/adjust it, with
the qRelocInsn packet. gdb converts "call" instructions into a "push
$<2GB-4GB addr> + jmp" sequence, however, the "pushq" instruction sign
extends its operand, so later when the called function returns, it
returns to an incorrectly sign-extended address. E.g.,
0xfffffffffabc0000 instead of 0xfabc0000, resulting in the
segmentation fault.
Fix this by converting calls at such addresses to "sub + mov + jmp"
sequences instead.

GLIBC BZ#20311 introduced a change to install proc_service.h so that gdb
didn't have to use the version it embeds in gdb_proc_service.h. The
embedded version is guarded by HAVE_PROC_SERVICE_H and
gdb_proc_service.h has a number other of includes and definitions, all
of which are uncondional except for an include for gregset.h. This is
only included if HAVE_PROC_SERIVCE_H is not defined.
This causes a build failure when cross compiling gdb with the latest
glibc because type definitions in gregset are used independently of
HAVE_PROC_SERIVCE_H. In particular, they are used in gdb_proc_service.h
when PRFPREGSET_T_BROKEN is set.
The error messages on the failure are

This patch moves the include for gregset.h to before the code guarded by

The error is caused by the access to (*inp)[9] if 9 is out of its bounds.
However [1] looks odd to me, because if strncmp returns true (non-zero),
the following check "(*inp)[9] == ','" makes no sense any more. I
suspect it was a typo in the code we meant to "strncmp () == 0". Another
problem in the code above is that if *inp is "operator,", we first
increment *inp by 9, and then increment it by one again, which is wrong
to me. We should only increment *inp by 8 to skip "operator", and go
back to the loop header to decide where we stop.

Right after a fork is detected, we detach breakpoints from the child
(detach_breakpoints), which calls into target_remove_breakpoint with
inferior_ptid pointing at the child process, but leaves the breakpoint
marked inserted (in the parent).
The problem is that record-full.c always deletes all knowledge of the
breakpoint. Then when we later really delete the breakpoint from the
parent, we fail the assertion, since the breakpoint is unexpectedly
not found in the record-full.c breakpoint table.
The fix is simply to not forget about the breakpoint if we're
detaching it from a fork child.

This is done by catching an exception number 0x406d1388 (it has no
documented name, though MSDN dubs it "MS_VC_EXCEPTION" in one code
example), which is thrown by the program. The exception record
contains an ID of a thread and a name to give it.
This requires rolling back some changes in handle_exception(), which
now again returns more than two distinct values. The new
HANDLE_EXCEPTION_IGNORED value means that gdb should just continue,
without returning the thread ID up the stack (which would result in
further handling of the exception, which is not what we want).

When executing commands on a secondary UI running the MI interpreter,
some commands that should be synchronous are not. MI incorrectly
continues processing input right after the synchronous command is
sent, before the target stops.
The problem happens when we emit MI async events (=library-loaded,
etc.), and we go about restoring the previous terminal state, we end
up calling target_terminal_ours, which incorrectly always installs the
current UI's input_fd in the event loop... That is, code like this:
old_chain = make_cleanup_restore_target_terminal ();
target_terminal_ours_for_output ();
fprintf_unfiltered (mi->event_channel, "library-loaded");
...
do_cleanups (old_chain);
The fix is to move the add_file_handler/delete_file_handler calls out
of target_terminal_$foo, making these completely no-ops unless called
with the main UI as current UI.

Merge async and sync code paths some more

The problem is that when an exception is thrown, we leave the prompt
state set to PROMPT_BLOCKED, and then mi_execute_command_input_handler
doesn't print the prompt. It used to work because before that patch,
we happened to skip disabling stdin if the current target didn't do
async (which it never does before execution).
I was surprised to find that this bug isn't caught by the testsuite,
so I made a thorough test that tests all combinations of pairs of:
- a failing synchronous execution command
- a failing non-execution command
- a non-failing command

gdb's (or gdbserver's) own signal handling should not interfere with
the signal dispositions their spawned children inherit. However, it
currently does. For example, some paths in gdb cause SIGPIPE to be
set to SIG_IGN, and as consequence, the child starts with SIGPIPE to
set to SIG_IGN too, even though gdb was started with SIGPIPE set to
SIG_DFL.
This is because the exec family of functions does not reset the signal
disposition of signals that are set to SIG_IGN:
http://pubs.opengroup.org/onlinepubs/7908799/xsh/execve.html
Signals set to the default action (SIG_DFL) in the calling process
image are set to the default action in the new process
image. Signals set to be ignored (SIG_IGN) by the calling process
image are set to be ignored by the new process image. Signals set to
be caught by the calling process image are set to the default action
in the new process image (see <signal.h>).
And neither does it reset signal masks or flags.
In order to be transparent, when spawning new child processes to debug
(with "run", etc.), reset signal actions and mask back to what was
originally inherited from gdb/gdbserver's parent, just before execing
the target program to debug.

(gdb) FAIL: gdb.base/attach-pie-noexec.exp: set architecture arm
GDB thinks the target is aarch64, but it isn't. Nowadays, we are
using some entries AT_PHENT and AT_HWCAP in auxv to determine whether
the process is a 32-bit arm one or 64-bit aarch64 one, and get the
right gdbarch. However, in the process of parsing auxv (in
inf_ptrace_auxv_parse), the size of int and data pointer of
target_gdbarch is used. If debug program exists (in most of cases),
target_gdbarch is already set according to the debug program, which
is arm in my case. Then, GDB can parse auxv successfully. However,
in gdb.base/attach-pie-noexec.exp, the debug program is removed,
target_gdbarch is aarch64 when GDB parse auxv, so GDB can't parse
it successfully.
Instead of using auxv, we check the return value of ptrace NT_ARM_VFP.
If the program is an arm process, NT_ARM_VFP is OK, otherwise, error
is returned.
Additionally, we only return tdesc_arm_with_neon for arm process,
because neon is mandatory on ARMv8.
