This patch modifies the unwinder (sniffer) defined in
py-recurse-unwind.py so that, depending upon the value of one of its
class variables, it will take different paths through the code,
testing different functionality.
The original test attempted to obtain the value of an undefined
symbol.
This somewhat expanded test checks to see if 'pc' can be read via
gdb.PendingFrame.read_register() and also via gdb.parse_and_eval().
gdb/testsuite/ChangeLog:
* gdb.python/py-recurse-unwind.c (main): Add loop.
* gdb.python/py-recurse-unwind.py (TestUnwinder): Add calls
to read_register() and gdb.parse_and_eval(). Make each code
call a separate case that can be individually tested.
* gdb.python/py-recurse-unwind.exp (cont_and_backtrace): New
proc. Call cont_and_backtrace for each of the code paths that
we want to test in the unwinder.
I happened to notice that one test in py-value.exp did not work
properly with Python 3. This patch fixes the problem.

While writing a Python frame filter, I found a few bugs in the current
frame filter code. In particular:
* One spot converts a Python long to a CORE_ADDR using PyLong_AsLong.
However, this can fail on overflow. I changed this to use
get_addr_from_python.
* Another spot is doing the same but with PyLong_AsUnsignedLongLong; I
changed this as well just for consistency.
* Converting line numbers can print "-1" if conversion from long
fails. This isn't fatal but just a bit ugly.
I've included a test case for the first issue. The line number one
didn't seem important enough to bother with.

I noticed that testing aarch64-elf gdb with a physical board
ran into issues with gdb.python/py-value.exp. Further investigation showed
that we were actually trying to dereference a NULL pointer (argv) when trying
to access argv[0].
Being bare-metal, argv is not guaranteed to be valid. So we need to make sure
argv is sane before accessing argv[0].
The following patch fixes up the test program to check for a NULL argv and also
improves the testcase a bit so it doesn't have to work with a hardcoded argc
value.
Regression-tested on x86-64 Ubuntu 16.04.
gdb/testsuite/ChangeLog:
2016-10-12 Luis Machado <lgustavo@codesourcery.com>
* gdb.python/py-value.c (main): Check if argv is NULL before using it.
* gdb.python/py-value.exp (test_value_in_inferior): Don't use hardcoded
argc values.
Add 1 to argc so we guarantee distinct initial/modified argc values.
The gdb.decode_line python function is documented to support the same location
expressions as the "break" command. It currently expects a linespec location.
Instead of creating a linespec location directly, create the location via
string_to_event_location_basic.
This fixes the problem exercised by Kevin's test at:
https://sourceware.org/ml/gdb-patches/2016-08/msg00216.html
This was originally exposed by the OpenJDK Python-based unwinder.
If an unwinder attempts to call parse_and_eval from within its
sniffing method, GDB's unwinding machinery enters infinite recursion.
However, parse_and_eval is a pretty reasonable thing to call, because
Python/Scheme-based unwinders will often need to read globals out of
inferior memory. The recursion happens because:
- get_current_frame() is called soon after the target stops.
- current_frame is NULL, and so we unwind it from the sentinel frame
(which is special and has level == -1).
- We reach get_prev_frame_if_no_cycle, which does cycle detection
based on frame id, and thus tries to compute the frame id of the new
frame.
- Frame id computation requires an unwinder, so we go through all
unwinder sniffers trying to see if one accepts the new frame (the
current frame).
- the unwinder's sniffer calls parse_and_eval().
- parse_and_eval depends on the selected frame/block, and if not set
yet, the selected frame is set to the current frame.
- get_current_frame () is called again. current_frame is still NULL,
so ...
- recurse forever.
In Kevin's test at:
https://sourceware.org/ml/gdb-patches/2016-08/msg00216.html
gdb doesn't recurse forever simply because the Python unwinder
contains code to detect and stop the recursion itself. However, GDB
goes downhill from here, e.g., by showing the sentinel frame as
current frame (note the -1):
Breakpoint 1, ccc (arg=<unavailable>) at py-recurse-unwind.c:23
23 }
(gdb) bt
#-1 ccc (arg=<unavailable>) at py-recurse-unwind.c:23
Backtrace stopped: previous frame identical to this frame (corrupt stack?)
That "-1" frame level comes from this:
if (catch_exceptions (current_uiout, unwind_to_current_frame,
sentinel_frame, RETURN_MASK_ERROR) != 0)
{
/* Oops! Fake a current frame? Is this useful? It has a PC
of zero, for instance. */
current_frame = sentinel_frame;
}
which is bogus. It's never correct to set the current frame to the
sentinel frame. The only reason this has survived so long is that
getting here normally indicates something wrong has already happened
before and we fix that. And this case is no exception -- it doesn't
really matter how precisely we managed to get to that bogus code (it
has to do with the the stash), because anything after recursion
happens is going to be invalid.
So the fix is to avoid the recursion in the first place.
Observations:
#1 - The recursion happens because we try to do cycle detection from
within get_prev_frame_if_no_cycle. That requires computing the
frame id of the frame being unwound, and that itself requires
calling into the unwinders.
#2 - But, the first time we're unwinding from the sentinel frame,
when we reach get_prev_frame_if_no_cycle, there's no frame chain
at all yet:
- current_frame is NULL.
- the frame stash is empty.
Thus, there's really no need to do cycle detection the first time we
reach get_prev_frame_if_no_cycle, when building the current frame.
So we can break the recursion by making get_current_frame call a
simplified version of get_prev_frame_if_no_cycle that results in
setting the current_frame global _before_ computing the current
frame's id.
But, we can go a little bit further. As there's really no reason
anymore to compute the current frame's frame id immediately, we can
defer computing it to when some caller of get_current_frame might need
it. This was actually how the frame id was computed for all frames
before the stash-based cycle detection was added. So in a way, this
patch reintroduces the lazy frame id computation, but unlike before,
only for the case of the current frame, which turns out to be special.
This lazyness, however, requires adjusting
gdb.python/py-unwind-maint.exp, because that assumes unwinders are
immediately called as side effect of some commands. I didn't see a
need to preserve the behavior expected by that test (all it would take
is call get_frame_id inside get_current_frame), so I adjusted the
test.

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 adds some breakpoint events to Python. In particular,
there is a creation event that is emitted when a breakpoint is
created; a modification event that is emitted when a breakpoint
changes somehow; and a deletion event that is emitted when a
breakpoint is deleted.
In this patch, the event's payload is the breakpoint itself. I
considered making a new event type to hold the breakpoint, but I
didn't see a need. Still, I thought I would mention this as a spot
where some other choice is possible.

this commit makes the gdb.python/py-mi-events.exp test not rely on
order in which MI and Python observers run, or even on where each

This shows up as a problem when testing with MI running as a separate
terminal, for example, where Python event output and MI output go to
different channels, even. But in any case, relying on the order in
which observers run is always going to be fragile.
The fix is to save the string output in the handlers in some variables
and then having MI print them explicitly, instead of printing them
directly from the Python events.

The crash happens because the dictionary field of these objects was

lazily initialized by Python when assigning to an attribute; and it
can also be handled ok when using dir() but without __dict__ defined;
but gdb defines __dict__ because this isn't supplied automatically by
Python.
The docs on this seem rather sparse, but this patch works ok.
An alternative might be to lazily create the dictionary in

When running tests in parallel, each test puts its generated files in a
different directory, under "outputs". I think it would be nice if it
was always the case, as it would isolate the test cases a bit more. An
artifact created by a test wouldn't get overwritten by another test.
Also, it makes it easier to clean up. A lot of executables are left all
over the place because their names do not appear in gdb.*/Makefile. If
everything is in "outputs", then we just have to delete that directory
(which we already do).
At the same time it makes the gdb.foo directories and their Makefiles
useless in the build directory, since they are pretty much only used for
cleaning.

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

I noticed this while working on the test case. I believe it would make
sense to skip running the tests if the binary failed to build. Although
I would understand the opposite argument: if the binary does not build
for some reason, we probably want to know about it, and some catastrophic
failures in the tests might alarm us better than a timid "UNTESTED".

* gdb.python/py-type.exp: Do not run tests if binaries fail to

The buildbots show that attach-many-short-lived-thread.exp is racy.
But after staring at debug logs and playing with SystemTap scripts for
a (long) while, I figured out that neither GDB, nor the kernel nor the
test's program itself are at fault.
The problem is simply that the testsuite machinery is currently
subject to PID-reuse races. The attach-many-short-lived-threads.c
test program just happens to be much more susceptible to trigger this
race because threads and processes share the same number space on
Linux, and the test spawns many many short lived threads in
succession, thus enlarging the race window a lot.
Part of the problem is that several tests spawn processes with "exec&"
(in order to test the "attach" command) , and then at the end of the
test, to make sure things are cleaned up, issue a 'remote_spawn "kill
-p $testpid"'. Since with tcl's "exec&", tcl itself is responsible
for reaping the process's exit status, when we go kill the process,
testpid may have already exited _and_ its status may have (and often
has) been reaped already. Thus it can happen that another process
meanwhile reuses $testpid, and that "kill" command kills the wrong
process... Frequently, that happens to be
attach-many-short-lived-thread, but this explains other test's races
as well.
In the attach-many-short-lived-threads test, it sometimes manifests
like this:
(gdb) file /home/pedro/gdb/mygit/build/gdb/testsuite/gdb.threads/attach-many-short-lived-threads
Reading symbols from /home/pedro/gdb/mygit/build/gdb/testsuite/gdb.threads/attach-many-short-lived-threads...done.

(gdb) FAIL: gdb.threads/attach-many-short-lived-threads.exp: iter 2: detach
GDB mishandles the latter (it should ignore ESRCH while detaching just
like when continuing), but that's another story.
The fix here is to change spawn_wait_for_attach to use Expect's
'spawn' command instead of Tcl's 'exec&' to spawn programs, because
with spawn we control when to wait for/reap the process. That allows
killing the process by PID without being subject to pid-reuse races,
because even if the process is already dead, the kernel won't reuse
the process's PID until the zombie is reaped.
The other part of the problem lies in DejaGnu itself, unfortunately.
I have occasionally seen tests (attach-many-short-lived-threads
included, but not only that one) die with a random inexplicable
SIGTERM too, and that too is caused by the same reason, except that in
that case, the rogue SIGTERM is sent from this bit in DejaGnu's remote.exp:
exec sh -c "exec > /dev/null 2>&1 && (kill -2 $pgid || kill -2 $pid) && sleep 5 && (kill $pgid || kill $pid) && sleep 5 && (kill -9 $pgid || kill -9 $pid) &"
...
catch "wait -i $shell_id"
Even if the program exits promptly, that whole cascade of kills
carries on in the background, thus potentially killing the poor
process that manages to reuse $pid...
I sent a fix for that to the DejaGnu list:
http://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/dejagnu/2015-07/msg00000.html
With both patches in place, I haven't seen
attach-many-short-lived-threads.exp fail again.

* gdb.python/py-objfile.exp: Fix typo that snuck in from my last

While running some regression tests, I noticed that the two Python
tests mentioned in the $SUBJECT contain non-unique names. This is a
violation of our guidelines:
<https://sourceware.org/gdb/wiki/GDBTestcaseCookbook#Make_sure_test_messages_are_unique>
And also makes things harder for BuildBot. So I hacked both testcases
and made every test name unique. I guess this could be considered an
obvious patch, but I decided to post it before pushing because others
may have different opinions about the names.

I have patches that:
1 - make the CLI print stop info from a normal_stop observer, like MI
does.
2 - happen to change the order in which the Python and CLI/TUI
normal_stop observers are installed.
With those in place, py-events.exp regresses like shown below [1],
because the Python stop events are output before CLI prints stop info,
instead of after, and the test doesn't expect that.
With the same Python hooks, the order in which MI and Python events is
emited today is already undefined, because MI also uses the
normal_stop observer for output. I see no reason that we should in
general define the order observers, interpreters and scripting
languages get their turn at being notified of these events. So this
patch makes the test cope with Python->CLI output order too.

This patch is related to PR python/16699, and is an improvement over the
patch posted here:
<https://sourceware.org/ml/gdb-patches/2014-03/msg00301.html>
Keith noticed that, when using the "complete" command on GDB to complete
a Python command, some strange things could happen. In order to
understand what can go wrong, I need to explain how the Python
completion mechanism works.
When the user requests a completion of a Python command by using TAB,
GDB will first try to determine the right set of "brkchars" that will be
used when doing the completion. This is done by actually calling the
"complete" method of the Python class. Then, when we already know the
"brkchars" that will be used, we call the "complete" method again, for
the same values.
If you read the thread mentioned above, you will see that one of the
design decisions was to make the "cmdpy_completer_helper" (which is the
function the does the actual calling of the "complete" method) cache the
first result of the completion, since this result will be used in the
second call, to do the actual completion.
The problem is that the "complete" command does not process the
brkchars, and the current Python completion mechanism (improved by the
patch mentioned above) relies on GDB trying to determine the brkchars,
and then doing the completion itself. Therefore, when we use the
"complete" command instead of doing a TAB-completion on GDB, there is a
scenario where we can use the invalid cache of a previous Python command
that was completed before. For example:
(gdb) A <TAB>
(gdb) complete B
B value1
B value10
B value2
B value3
B value4
B value5
B value6
B value7
B value8
B value9
(gdb) B <TAB>
comp1 comp2 comp4 comp6 comp8
comp10 comp3 comp5 comp7 comp9
Here, we see that "complete B " gave a different result than "B <TAB>".
The reason for that is because "A <TAB>" was called before, and its
completion results were "value*", so when GDB tried to "complete B " it
wrongly answered with the results for A. The problem here is using a
wrong cache (A's cache) for completing B.
We tried to come up with a solution that would preserve the caching
mechanism, but it wasn't really possible. So I decided to completely
remove the cache, and doing the method calling twice for every
completion. This is not optimal, but I do not think it will impact
users noticeably.
It is worth mentioning another small issue that I found. The code was
doing:
wordobj = PyUnicode_Decode (word, sizeof (word), host_charset (), NULL);
which is totally wrong, because using "sizeof" here will lead to always
the same result. So I changed this to use "strlen". The testcase also
catches this problem.
Keith kindly expanded the existing testcase to cover the problem
described above, and everything is passing.

This is more of a readline/terminal issue than a Python one.
PR17372 is a regression in 7.8 caused by the fix for PR17072:
commit 0017922d02
Author: Pedro Alves <palves@redhat.com>
Date: Mon Jul 14 19:55:32 2014 +0100
Background execution + pagination aborts readline/gdb
gdb_readline_wrapper_line removes the handler after a line is
processed. Usually, we'll end up re-displaying the prompt, and that
reinstalls the handler. But if the output is coming out of handling
a stop event, we don't re-display the prompt, and nothing restores the
handler. So the next input wakes up the event loop and calls into
readline, which aborts.
...

PR gdb/17072
* top.c (gdb_readline_wrapper_line): Tweak comment.
(gdb_readline_wrapper_cleanup): If readline is enabled, reinstall
the input handler callback.
The problem is that installing the input handler callback also preps
the terminal, putting it in raw mode and with echo disabled, which is
bad if we're going to call a command that assumes cooked/canonical
mode, and echo enabled, like in the case of the PR, Python's
interactive shell. Another example I came up with that doesn't depend
on Python is starting a subshell with "(gdb) shell /bin/sh" from a
multi-line command. Tests covering both these examples are added.
The fix is to revert the original fix for PR gdb/17072, and instead
restore the callback handler after processing an asynchronous target
event.
Furthermore, calling rl_callback_handler_install when we already have
some input in readline's line buffer discards that input, which is
obviously a bad thing to do while the user is typing. No specific
test is added for that, because I first tried calling it even if the
callback handler was still installed and that resulted in hundreds of
failures in the testsuite.

Patch <https://sourceware.org/ml/gdb-patches/2011-07/msg00225.html> was
to fix the problem that py-objfile-script-gdb.py is removed after an

Nowadays, if we do in-tree build and run tests sequentially, some source
files are removed, due to the following pattern:
set pi_txt [gdb_remote_download host ${srcdir}/${subdir}/pi.txt]
remote_exec host "rm -f $pi_txt"
If testing is run sequentially, file ${srcdir}/${subdir}/pi.txt is
copied to ${objdir}/${subdir}/pi.txt. However, ${objdir} is ${srcdir}
in the in-tree build/test, so the file is coped to itself, as a nop.
As a result, the file in source is removed at the end of test.
This patch fixes this problem by not removing files copied to host in
each test. This patch also addresses the question we've had that why
don't we keep files copied to host because they are needed to reproduce
certain fails.

I see the following two fails on arm-none-eabi target, because argv[0]
isn't available.
print argv[0]^M
$1 = 0x1f78 "/dev/null"^M
(gdb) FAIL: gdb.base/argv0-symlink.exp: kept file symbolic link name
print argv[0]^M
$1 = 0x1f78 "/dev/null"^M
(gdb) FAIL: gdb.base/argv0-symlink.exp: kept directory symbolic link name
My first thought is to check [target_info exists noargs], and skip the
test if it returns true. However, noargs is set in gdbserver board
files, so argv0-symlink.exp will be skipped on gdbserver board file.
The change is too aggressive.
When the program is running with gdbserver, argv[1] to argv[N] aren't
available, but argv[0] is. Fortunately, argv0-symlink.exp only
requires argv[0]. argv0-symlink.exp can be run with gdbserver board
file, as what we do now.
What we need to check is whether argv[0] is available, so I add a new
proc gdb_has_argv0 to do so by starting a program, and check
argc/argv[0] to see whether argv[0] is available.
Dan fixed the similar problem by checking noargs, which is too strong.

Some testcases, mostly gdb.reverse ones, assume the presence of a
'/' directory separator before the source file name. This is
incorrect for mingw32 hosts, generating false failures for those
tests.
I attempted to catch most of the occurrences of the pattern
".*/$srcfile" and replaced them with ".*$srcfile". The latter
is used elsewhere in the testsuite. The resulting patch is attached.
I also see other occurrences of the same assumption throughout the
testsuite, but usually they are arguments for function calls and i
seem to recall either the test harness or GDB deals with those
paths properly.

Test gdb.python/py-parameter.exp expects output "$srcdir/$subdir:\$cdir:\$cwd",
but proc gdb_reinitialize_dir doesn't set $srcdir/$subdir in search
directories on remote host because it doesn't exist on remote host.
proc gdb_reinitialize_dir { subdir } {
global gdb_prompt
if [is_remote host] {
return ""
}
It causes the fail below:
(gdb) python print (gdb.parameter ('directories'))^M
/tmp/gdb:$cdir:$cwd^M
(gdb) FAIL: gdb.python/py-parameter.exp: python print (gdb.parameter ('directories'))
This patch is to fix this fail by not matching $srcdir/$subdir on remote host.
gdb/testsuite:
2014-10-15 Yao Qi <yao@codesourcery.com>
* gdb.python/py-parameter.exp: Don't match $srcdir/$subdir on
remote host.
I see the following fails in the remote host testing we do for mingw32
hosted GDB,
python print (symtab[1][0].symtab)^M
python.c^M
(gdb) FAIL: gdb.python/python.exp: Test decode_line current locationn filename
python print (symtab[1][0].symtab)^M
python.c^M
(gdb) FAIL: gdb.python/python.exp: Test decode_line python.c:26 filename
The test cases doesn't consider remote host and assumes that directory
on build also exists on host. In this patch, we only match file base
name if host is remote, otherwise, match file with dir name.

* gdb.python/py-symbol.exp: Match file base name if host is
remote, otherwise match file name with dir name.
* gdb.python/py-symtab.exp: Likewise.

This patch is to clean up various gdb.python/*.exp tests, such as
removing trailing ".*" from the pattern and fix one typo I find during
reading the code.
gdb/testsuite:
2014-10-15 Yao Qi <yao@codesourcery.com>
* gdb.python/python.exp: Remove trailing ".*". Fix typo
locationn.
* gdb.python/py-symbol.exp: Remove trailing ".*" in the
pattern.
* gdb.python/py-symtab.exp: Likewise.
Several places in the testsuite have a copy of a snippet of code that
spawns a test program, waits a bit, and then does some PID munging for
Cygwin. This is in order to have GDB attach to the spawned program.
This refactors all that to a common procedure.
(multi-attach.exp wants to spawn multiple processes, so this makes the
new procedure's interface work with lists.)
Tested on x86_64 Fedora 20.
gdb/testsuite/ChangeLog:

* lib/gdb.exp (spawn_wait_for_attach): New procedure.
* gdb.base/attach.exp (do_attach_tests, do_call_attach_tests)
(do_command_attach_tests): Use spawn_wait_for_attach.
